.rrisco Kid" on a Rampage.

Last night just before supper time
.beu large crowd was congre-
.a,sd on the sidewalks of the
Hotel De France, discussing war news
and other exciting things, they were in
,a-rrpted by series of blood curdling
coins and war whoops, followed closely
nv a rapid fire of rocking chairs, dishes,
tables and numerous uncomfortable
ar,;cIes which dropped into the middle of
the street as if shot from cannon, COM
mo from bawdy house on the Row,
walked out with a smile of sat
;sfactiou and content. The trouble
started over the "Kid" being
q little the worse for "lubrication" had
walked into house adjoining hers
owned by Viola Brown, with the forego-
inc results. At this juncture the "fy
cops" appeared on the scene and placed
the fair damsel under arrest, she
resisted and lodged into the
house. She was finally locked
no and given time for re-
lection in one of Marshal Denny's choice
nr,yate darkened cells. She was later
given chance to cool off in the main
corridor of the Jail, when at about 1880
this morning Marshal Denny heard noise
He Immediately investigated
and discovered she had broken
lock off the main door. She was later
picked up and lodged in Jail again.
Last night Viola Brown made complaint
against the 'Kid" and she was brought
before Justice McConkey this morning
and plead guilty. She stated to the
Judge that she was totally unconscious OF
what she was doing at the time and tina,
as she was not addicted to the habit OF
drinking intoxicants, Justice McConkey
considering she had only been here five
days, fined her at the rate of S. per day
or SIS, which she produced.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot

and that is by constitutional remedies

dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in.
famed you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out of ten are caused by cat

IF WOMEN ONLY KNEW
What a Heap of Happiness it
Would Bring to Oskaloosa
Homes.

Hard to do homework with an
aching back.
Hours of misery at leisure or at
work,
If women only knew the cause;
Backache pains come from sick
kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills will cure It.
Oskaloosa people endorse this:
Mrs. j. w. Myers, of 513 South FL
street, says: ''If attacks of kidney
complaint which hurt my back when
l rose after sitting or reclining, when
l made any awkward or unthought
of movement, each succeeding attack
more severe than the former,so much
so that / was almost belfast, If these
are any indications of weakened or
over excited kidneys, then | had them
for months. 1t is a difficult matter
to convey to the reader who has never
suffered, what one really endures. 1t
is much easier to tell the public what
will prevent such suffering. My hus-
band brought me from Blakeslee &
Heinzman's drug store, a box of
Doan's Kidney Pills. Not only did
they remove the pains across the
loins, but | was in better health and
as a consequence stronger in every
way" Price so cents.

kinney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
1t used TO be considered that only urinary
troubles we're to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ming in kidney trouble.
If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild

the number will not fall below
two hundred.
Many dead have been taken
out which cannot be identified.
The work of rescue still con

Salt Lake City, Utah, May q
An explosion occurred yesterday
at the winter quarters of the
coal mine at Scofield, a hundred
miles south of here, by which
137 miners were killed and over
a hundred injured.
The explosion is believed to
have been caused by the igniting
of a number of kegs of blasting
powder.
The scenes around the shafts
were heartrending. Women and
children gathered, awaiting the
news of loved ones. 1t IS known
that there were at least 300 men
at work in the mines and it is
thought all perished.

No one here, however, considers
that General Botha will be able

The feeling is that he must be
beaten off by the masses of Lord
Roberts.

posts at Bospof, the headquar-
ters of Lord Methuen, on April
%, but without result.
