SOME OF THE BEST.

Good Qualities That Put the Stamp of
Excellence Upon This Article.

There are many reasons why you should
take Morrow's Kid-ne-oids in preference to
any other kidney preparation. First, Kid
ne-oids are a scientific preparation. Sec
ond, They are Tablets, which is the scien-
tifc form of preparing medicine Third,
There are never any bad after effects from
their use. Fourth. They act directly upon
the kidneys; they are strictly a kidney
cure and nerve tonic. Fifth, You do not
have to quit work while using Kid-ne-oids.
A fifty-cent box contains enough for about
two weeks treatment. People use Kid-ne-
oids, because they cure kidney ailments.
Here is what Mrs. r. D. Sceley. At Brad
ford street, Charleston, says: II suffered
for some time with pains across the small
part of my back; at times they would be
very severe and rendered it almost impos-
sibie for me to get about: was very ner-
vous and could not sleep at night. Nv
condition was gradually growing worse
and felt just like 1 was going to have
a severe sick spell and was afraid Of a
spell OF fever. l read about Morrow 5
kd-ne-oids and where they were guaran-
teed to cure lame back and nervousness. so
J. decided TO try them. l obtained some al

or SO the pains disappeared from my back

every way and In Q remarkably short time

For a Big Meeting OF Miners at Cumber-
lard, on the 18th.
Special to the Register
CUMBERLAND, Md, December g.
Great preparations are being made for
a three days convention of the miners
of the Georges Creek, Maryland, re-
gion, and the Meyersdale, Pennsyl-
vania, region, which convenes at Lon
aeoning, this county, December 18th.
The convention has been called at the
instance of John Mitchell, national
president, of Indianapolis, Ind. w. B.
Wilson, president of district No. 2,
Blossburg, Pa, and William Warner,
national organizer, Homecoming, Md.
At this convention a demand will
doubtless be made for an increase of
Is cents ton for mining coal for the
miners of the Georges Creek. and if
refused by the companies strike may
ensue that will affect 1000 miners.
The primary object of the convention
is to stimulate the interest of the min
ers of the Georges Creek region in
forming an organization by consolidat-
ing the Meyersdale and Georges Creek
regions into a district union. The
most important Office to be filled will
be the district president, and great
rivalry has sprung up among prominent
members of the organization as to
who shall fill the position.
The convention will be addressed by
Messrs. Powderly, Ratchford, and other
prominent labor leaders.
Delegates will be selected at this
convention to attend the national con-
vention to be held shortly in Indian

out Of the original mills taken into the
Tin Plate Trust are at present closed.
Thus, even in a period Of great indus
trial and commercial activity, this Trust
exposes the hoIlowness of the pretenses.
SO often advanced in support of protective
duties that they increase the opportuni-
ties for the employment of labor
The League presents this additional
statement about the Tin Plate Trust with
no intention of hostility to the gentlemen
composing the American Tin Plate Com
pany. They are men of good business rep
utatien; but the point that the League
would make is that it is not safe to give
them, or to any other body OF men. the
power which is afforded by protective du-
ties such as the tax on tin plates. Every
well wisher of his country ought to join
in the demand that this duty and every
other duty which protects a trust, should
be removed. HENRY w. LAMB.

AN IMPORTANT SUIT.
Special to the Register.

Special to the Register.
PARKERSBURG, w. Va, December
"A suit was filed yesterday by the
Citizens Trust & Guaranty Company
of West Virginia as trustee for Isaac
Praeger & Son. and Isaac Praeger, and
against Henry Keller. assignee of Isaac
Praeger & Son. This suit eliminates
as result of long litigation which has
been pending in the several courts
ever since Praeger & Son made an as
signment in 1896. The purpose of the
suit, which was decided on at meet
ing of creditors of the firm, is to have
the assignee transfer all the assets to
the end that there may be more ex-
peditious settlement of the affairs of
the firm.
The bill alleges that there is in the
hands of Henry Keller, as assignee,
about $21,000 in money, together with
a large amount of uncollected ac-
counts; that Keller is disqualified by
reason of mental and physical infirm-
titles, and non-residence in the State, to
satisfactorily perform his duties. 1t
further asks that the large double
brick building on Juliana street be
turned over, and that said property be
sold, clear of all inumbrances, in bank
rupty proceedings by the trustee. A
legal point raised is the determination
of just how far proceedings in bank
ruptcy can supersede the administrators
of estates under State laws. v. B.
Archer represents the trustee company.

"Pope Leo XIII has taken the great

The Power of the Press,

"The power of the press"is a common
expression, but few really realize its ac-
tual power. Deep thinkers do not hest
tate to assert that half the crime of our
country may be traced to this source.
But great as is the influence of the press,
1t can not begin to equal the power of
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters over disease.
Most diseases originate in a weak stom-
ach. The Bitters strengthens the stom-
ach, purifies the blood and cures consti-
patton. 1t will tone up the nervous sys-
TEN and stimulate inactive kidneys. AS
an appetizer it is %unequalled. 1t cures
sick people, and an occasinal dose regu-
ates the bowels and prevents well peo-
pie from becoming sick. If you want to
get we'll, and keep we'll, use Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters.

A Historic Spot In Australia.
The government of New South Wales
is soon to resume possession Of the his
toric ground on the south side Of Bot
amy bay where Captain Cook first set
foot upon the Australian continent.
This spot is classic in Australian his
tory for this, and for the fact that it
was also there that Governor Phillip
landed, and that the first white man
ever buried in Australian soil-Forby
Sntherland-was laid to rest on the
beach there. The memorial plate fixed
ON the rock face by Governor Phillip is
still to be seen. When the late Duke OF
Clarence and the Duke of York visited
the place, they each planted a tree on
the point, and, strangely enough, the
Duke Of York's is growing into a fine
tree, while that planted by the Duke Of
Clarence never thrived and died some
time ago. On the government resuming
actual control Of the land it will be
turned intoa public park. Unfortunate
~ it is hard to reach from Sydney, be-
ing on the south side of Botany bay,
which is not ''navigable." except at
very high tides .-Pall Mall Gazette.

SEVERE STORM IN NEBRASKA.
The Neighborhood of Hardy Suffers From a High Wind, Assuming the
 Proportions of Tornado.

Omaha, Neb., Oct. IA storm of unusual violence, particularly for this time of year, visited the country ill the vicinity of Hardy. Neb., late Sunday afternoon. The wind had been high all day, and near night assumed the proportions of tornado. \ large amount of damage was done to small buildings and several large ones were unroofcd. A brick schoolhouse wgs unroofed, and the walls so badly cracked that it will have to be torn down. The enginehouse at the Hardy elevator was wrecked. Several barns were blown down, and the aggregate less will amount to many thousands of dollars. All over the state d high wind prevailed all day. which was fol- lowed by steady rain. The rain will be very welcome, because it is needed by fall grain,a and will cheek the prairie fires which have become very frequent, and have done considerable damage
