men and women who suffer from kidney

SLOW POISONING.
1t Is the Office of kidneys to filter the
blood and remove from it those foreign
matters which if retained in the blood
corrupt and poison it. The principles so
eliminated by the kidneys are constantly
being produced in the tissues of the body.
The kidneys are therefore ceaselessly
active and care for an enormous quantity
of blood. When by reason of disease
the activity Of the kidneys is impaired,
or when they are overtaxed by being re-
CURED to eliminate from the blood an
undue quantity of corrupting substances,
thrown into the blood as a result of dis
ease of the stomach and other organs of
digestion and nutrition then it is that
the poisonous deposits first begin to col
!ect in the blood, and breed deadly con-
sequences. The accumulation of the
poison is slow, and the physical changes
which accompany the poisoning of the
system are slow also, and this makes the
great danger of the disease. Many times

Independent Citizens Party of
FitChburg Names James H. Nc
Mahon for Mayor After Very
Bitter Fight
Mr.. BABBITT MAY RUN
ON NOMINATION PAPERS
Citizens Temperance Party Also
Held Convention and Nominal
ed F. F. Woodward as Its Can
didate for Mayor-HiS Chance
to Win Believed Good


! Fitchburg, Nov. 15.-After one of the
most bitter fights for the nomination of
mayor by the Independent Citizens
Party, that has been waged In this city
for years, James H. Mcmahon was
nominated by the convention of that
party this evening. So bitter was the
fight that fractional feeling and person
alities were encountered throughout
the business of the convention. The
opposition to Mr. Mcmahon would not
make the choice unanimous and the
candidate had to content himself with
the 81 ballots cast in his favor to 20 for
his opponent.
James E. Mcconnell was the chair
man of the convention and his rulings
were fair and impartial notWithstand-
ing his personal feelings in the fight
The informal ballot was as follows:
Mayor C. H. Babbitt, Is; James H. Nc
Mahon, 81. A motion to make the in
formal ballot formal was lost and the
formal ballot resulted in 81 votes for
Mr. Mcmahon and 20 for Mr.. Babbitt.
The. result was received with APP
plause by the anti-Babbitt men who
have worked day and night to accom-
plish their purpose. Mr.. Mcmahon
made a brief speech in which he
pledged his best efforts for the good Of
the city, if elected, and an administra-
ton for rich and poor alike, and one
that would have the support of the
people year hence.
Aldermanic nominations were as
follows: Ward one, John Heag-
ney; Ward two, J. Lowell Johnson;
Augustus Wellington; Ward 8, Ma
thaniel Vaney; Ward g. Charles B.
Smith
Mayor Babbitt was seen by a Spy
reporter after the convention. He had
nothing to say at to the result. 1t is
said that he was defeated by dele
gates from his own ward Whether he
will run on nomination papers is a
matter of conjecture Should he so de-
eide there will be five candidates for
the office of chief magistrate of the
city.
The Citizens Temperance party held
it's convention in City Hall this even
ing and compared with that of the
opposing party was a veritable love
feast. There was an opposition ele-
ment but not strong enough to make
any Roadway. The informal ballot re-
suited as follows: A. H. Burgess 10,
F. A. Currier IA, F. F. Woodward 81.
On the formal ballot Burgess received
~, Curr1er II ana woodward 80. Mr..
Woodward was declared the nominee
of the party for mayor and the NOM
nation was made unanimous. The al
dermanic nominees are as follows:
Ward 1, George H Johnson; Ward 2,
j. Lowell Johnson; Ward 3, G. H.
Coggswell; Ward H. Henry A. Esta-
brook; Ward 5, H. o. Sawyer; Ward 6,
John Hardy. 1t is conceded by many
that this is a temperance year and
that victory will perch upon the ban
ner of the party.

Mrs. ChiIds Whom ErastuS +.
Walker Regarded as His Chief
Witness Failed to Support His
Charges
PLAINTIFF HAD SUED
Mr.. MARSH FOR ISLANDER
He Claimed That Defendant Had
Made the Injurious Statement
to Mrs. ChiIds-As Mrs. Chllds
Did Not Recall the Words in
Question, Case Fell to Pieces

Special to The Spy.
Fitchburg. Nov. 15.-When the Su-
perior Court opened this morning Her
bert Parker, counsel for the plaintiff,
concluded his argument in the case of
Frazer ct al. VS.. Fuller ct ais, the
Clinton ice case, the court made its
charge and the jury retired at II
o'clock a. m, and were out when the
court adjourned at 1915 o'clock p. M
to 10 o'clock a. m. Monday.
The next case in order was Fitch
burg Islander case, Erastus E. Walker
VS.. Alphonso Marsh. There had been
also another defendant, Cecil Yelling
ton. but Mr.. wellington settled with
Mr.. Walker late Thursday night, for
$50 Both plaintiff and defendant are
real estate agents. The plaintiff is par
ticularly we'll known from his position
in the political arena. He was formerly
carpenter, and is a good workman.
In politics he was originally Repub-
lican. then about the time of the first
Cleveland campaign he became DEM
ocrat. He made some stir few years
ago by running for mayor and got
over 400 votes. In the last presidential
campaign he again entered the Re-
publican ranks. Now he claims to be
a socialist. He has had several court
suits, and last summer he personally
won a verdict in the Superior Court.
He has again announced himself as
candidate for mayor of Fitchburg,
running on nomination papers.
In his declaration Mr.. Walker says
the defendant falsely and maliciously
accused the plaintiff of being an insane
and an irresponsible person, and of
being a person not safe to deal with,
by saying He is crazy, do not have
anything to do with him; he is a luna
tic. He never sells any property and
he will only hurt the sale of your
property if you leave 1t with him to
SELL" thereby intending, purposely and
contriving to villify and injure the
plaintiff, etc. The defendant made a
general denial. Baker & Hall defended
Mr. Marsh
The case attracted considerable at
tention. Mr.. Walker relied on Mrs
Childs as his chief witness the woman
to whom Mr.. Walker alleged the words
were spoken. When he called her to
the stand, Mr.. Walker was very gal
liant and escorted and assisted her, as
she is feeble. Walter Perley Hall,
counsel for defendant, outdid Mr.. Wal
ker in gallantry, however, for he asked
the court that she be seated to testify.
Mrs. Childs could not or would not re-
member what Mr.. Marsh said to her
about Mr. Walker. She denied even
giving him her property to sell. and
Mr.. Walkers case, therefore, fell to
pieces. The court instructed the jury
to bring in a verdict for the defend
ant. which it did without leaving the
seats The enclosure was filled with
members of the bar who had come to
hear the trial
There are no more jury cases for
trial at this session and court and
divorce cases will take up next weeks
hearings.
The jury in the Clinton ice case came
in at 2.40 O'Clock with a sealed verdict.
