There is d ease prevailing in this
country most DANGEROUS because so decep-
tive. Many sud- EN- deaths are caused by
it-heart diSeases pneumonia, heart failure
or apoplexy are d ten the result of kidney
disease. If kidns BY trouble is allowed to ad-
vance the hdneyipoisoned blood will attack
the vital organs, pr the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Then the richness of the blood-the albumen
leaks out and the sufferer has Bright's
Disease, the wor| form of kidney trouble.

Go TO THE POLLS.

Next Tuesday will be general
election day throughout the country.
When the sun goes down on that
day the fate of a nation for the next
four years will have been settled, and
the network of wires and cables that
span this continent and belt the
world will be kept hot for the next
twenty-fOur hours carrying the news
to every nook and corner of civiliza-
ton.
What shall it be? Shall it be four
more years of McKinleyism, trust
domination and imperialism, or shall
it be a verdict of condemnation of
these iniquitous things and declara-
ton of American manhood, in favor
of honest government at home and
honorable dealings abroad?
In this State we know of course
what it will be, but it is none the
less important that every qualified
electOr shall 60 to the polls and
vote. Do not be bump on a log;
an absolute nonenity in the determi-
nation of a question of so much i'm
portance. 1t is apt to give the State
a bad name away from home.
And, besides that, we have some
very important questions to settle
among ourselves. The location of
the State Capital and the voting
down of the proposition to hold a
Constitutional Convention are the
most important, perhaps, and they
will be settled at primary, but this
primary will be held at the same
time and near the same place of the
general election.
1t is important that every Demo
cratic voter should be at the primary,
for, Notwithstanding it looks like Tai
lahaSsee will sweep the State-in
fact there is every assurance that
she wilI-yet too much confidence
when it leads to lethargy and stay
ing away from the polls, is danger.
Gus thing. Let every man who feels
he is worthy the name Democrat
turn out and do his whole duty.
Another thing we desire to call at,
tentlon to. For the next four years
our representation in all party meet,
ings, should there be any, will be
based upon the number of votes we
| poll next Tuesday. This is an i'm.
portant matter and should make al
Democrats feel an interest in going
to the polls and voting.
A word to the wise is sufficient
Do not wait until it is too late and
then abuse somebody else, because
your precinct or county is not prop
erly represented.

William J. Knight, Plaintiff in Error
VS.. The State of Florida, Defend
ant in Error.-Alachua county.
CARTER, j.:
l. A plea in abatement in a crimi
nal case alleging that at the time the
Indictment was found and presented
another Indictment for the same
charge was pending against the de-
PENDANT, is bad on demurrer.
2. Dilatory pleas in criminal cases
are required to be accurate and pre-
else, free from ambiguity, and certain
to every intent.
3. The omission of the record in a
criminal case to show a joinder in a
demurrer is immaterial and can not
be objected to after the decision of
the demurrer.
4. Upon indictments for assault
with intent to commit any of the
grades or degrees of unlawful homi-
eide it will not be sufficient to show
that the killing, had it occurred,
would have been unlawful and a fell
ony, but it must be found that the
accused committed the assault with
intent to take life, in order to sustain
a conviction for an assault with in
tent to commit a felony.
5. Where one assaults another
with intent (but not a premeditated
design to kill him, and the assault is
accompanied by an act which, if
death had resulted therefrOm, would
have constituted murder in the sec
ond degree under the statute defn-
ing this degree of homicide, the party
committing the assault will be guilty
of an assault with intent to commit
the felony of murder in the second
degree, but if there be no intent to
kill, the party committing the assault
can not be convicted for an assault
with intent to commit felony, even
though the circumstances are such
that had the party assaulted died the
party committing the assault would
have been guilty of murder in the Sec
Ond degree.
Judgment reversed.

CARTER, J.:
1. An Indictment under Section
2516 Revised Statutes need not al
lege that defendant severed from the
realty, the property alleged to have
been carried away; nor that the tres
pass was committed without the con-
sent of the owner of the land where
it is charged that it was willfully
committed, and a description of the
realty trespassed upon as 1.-the land
of E. f. S., to-wit; pinery located
on the northeast quarter Of the north
west quarter of section two, township
twenty-three, south, range twenty
nine, east" is sufficiently definite.
2. Pineapple plants growing in the
soil are parcel of the realty within
the meaning of Section 2516 Re.
vised Statutes, and not farm products
or fruit, within the meaning of sec.
ton 2517 Revised Statutes, as
amen ded by Chapter 4531, act Of
1897.
3. Under Section 1898 Revised
Statutes it is not error to refuse tC
quash an information upon the
ground that it charges several dis
tinct felOnies in separate counts, un.
less such information is so vague, in.
distinct and indefinite as to mislead
the accused, embarrass him in the
preparation of his defense, or expose
him after conviction or acqulttal tC

4. Proof that the title to and man.
agement of a pinery alleged to have
been trespasSed upon were in the
person alleged in the information, is
sufficient to sustain the allegation as
to ownership, even though the proof
shows further that other persons
were interested in the profits of the
pinery.
5. In order to convict one accused
of wilfully committing a trespass
upon realty by taking and carrying
away therefrom pineapple plants,
parcel of the realty, the proof must
show that the particular plants al
legged to have been taken were in
fact taken, but it is not necessary
that the particular plants be pro-
duced before the jury, or if produced
along with others of the same charac-
ter and variety, that witnesses should
be able to separate the identical plants
taken from the others, nor should

to show that the identical plants

THE COLOR LINE
 TO BE DISCUSSED ImportantQuestion Before Trades
 Council Today. MINERS WANT NEGROES IN They Think it Unjust Discrimination Not to Allow Negroes in Other
 Unions When Many Belong
 to Their Organization.
MINERS WANT NEGROES IN

At this afternoons meeting of the Bir- mingham Trades Council it is probable that a committee from the United Mine Workers will be present for conference relative to the color line clause which the constitution of the Trades Council is said to contain.
 It will be recalled that a communication from the Trades Council read in the con- vention of the United Mine Workers last Thursday requested that body to adopt res olutions requesting all members of that body to employ union labor on work they might have to give out. This communica- tion from the Trades Council was based on reports that some of the United Mine Workers at Pratt City and Wylam were having houses built by non-union carpen- ters and bricklayers. The committee on resolutions reported favorably resolution embodying the requests of the Trades Council This portion of the committed s report precipitated a lengthy debate, which finally ended in the adoption of a motion to table it until a conference could be had with the Trades Council relative to the abolishment of the clause of it's constitu- ton prohibiting the admission of negroes to it's membership.
 It was asserted by several of the speak CTS that negroes could not gain admission to the Carpenters and the Bricklayers Unions and that as there were nnmber of colored carpenters and bricklayers in the district 1t would be an unjust dis crimination against them for the United Mine Workers to adopt a resolution on the line suggested in view of the fact that the United Mine Workers embraced in its membership a large number of negroes.
 A motion prevailed in the convention authorizing the chair to appoint a com mittee to wait on the Trades Council and endeavor to have the color clause stricken from its constitution. The committee was appointed and will probably be present at the meeting of the Trades Council this afternoon.

German Minister safe

Washington, June 23.-The news of the safety of Baron von Kettler, German minister to China, and his family was to- night corroborated by message received here from H. D. Ledyard of Detroit, whose daughter is the wife of Baron von Kettler The message stated that a cabegram had been received via Berlin stating that his daughter and her husband were both safe.
 This information, as we'll as other news similar in character, has had a reassuring effect upon the President and his advisers, and they are now inclined to regard the situation at Pelxin as less serious than at first reported.

Another Regiment to be wi,hdrau VII

Havana June 23-Now that the elections are satisfactorily over General Wood will recommend the removal of an infantry regiment from the island. Cavalry is needed in the event of any trouble occur ring, which is unlikely, and General Wood feels, as he has for over a year, that the troops could be reduced by removing all most the entire infantry, except in places where they can be used mounted, as in Santiago province. The removal of the troops as proposed inspires the Cubans with feeling of contentment and confi- dence in the joint resolution of Congress. They appear to believe that each removal means another step towards Cubas free dom

 The kidneys separate from the blood a peculiar salt known as urea. If this salt is allowed to accumulate in the blood quickly produces blood poison, (ur@mia.) But, if at the same time the kidneys allow the serum of the blood to escape, it forms fatal drain to the system, (albuminuria.) Catarrh of the kidneys will so derange them as to produce both of these disastrous re- suits, for not only will the kidneys fail to excrete the urea from the blood but will allow the serum of the blood to escape with the urine.
 If the kidneys are healthy they will excrete the poison from the blood. The renal veins return the purified
