Mrs. Samuel c. Dyer Tells II HarEOvv-
ing Tale of Suffering.

McCarron, Mich, April s Especially.
Mrs. Samuel G. Dyer, of this place,
has given the following interesting
letter for publication:
''For years, I suffered intense pain
in the region of the heart. 1 doctored

time, but the pain always returned.
My heart was so bad that L would have

derstand how much 1 suffered with
this Heart Trouble.
about year ago, I heard of Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and commenced to use
them. From the first my condition i'm
proved. The pain in my heart gradual
~ grew less, and my general health
much better, and now I can say posi-
lively that I am entirely cured. can
sleep all night, and enjoy almost per-
feet health. I thank God for the cure
that has come to me through the use
of Dodd's Kidney Pills.

ter of giving this letter for publica-
ton, and am now doing so without any
solicitation whatever, and simply be-
cause feel it to be my duty to express
the profound gratitude feel for my
recovery, and to let others who may
be suffering as I was know how they
may find n cure. I know that nothing
else but Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me,
because l have taken no other med

than ] have for many years, and it is
all due to the use of Dodd's Kidney
Pills.
Mrs. Dyer's case and its cure has at
tracted a great deal of attention, and
her letter is 4 splendid tribute to the
curative properties of Dodd's Kidney
Pills.

TO coMBINE ALL RAILROADS.
Reports That n Hinge Deal Is in Process
OF Formation widely Circulated -
: In NetV York.

New York, April 6.-Reports that
huge railroad combinations are in pro-
cess of formation were widely circu-
lated here yesterday. Detailed state
ments concerning the plan already
published looking to the combination
of all the great railway systems of
the United States under the control of
one company were given, but as u gem
eraI thing prominent railroad officials
and bankers declined to discuss the
matter. According to all accounts the
enterprise involved the greatest COM
bination of capital known in the his
tory of finance. It was said the COM
pany would be formed under the laws
of New Jersey for the purpose of con-
Quoting a general freight and trans
portation business throughout the
United States, that the company
would hold controlling interest in
all of the great railway systems and
that the management of the roads
would be vested in the controlling
company. According to the PROPOSE
ton each road would preserve it's
identity and corporate existence, but
the new company would control the
affairs of all. By this policy it was
claimed large sums of money could
be saved as result of economies in
management and the stoppage of rate
cutting.

HAILED With SATISFACTION.
Admiral Remey Cables Washington That
the Troublesome Insurgents, from Iba
to MOrOng, Have Surrendered,

Washington, April 6.-The navy de-
partment Friday received the follow
ing cablegram from Admiral Remey
at Cavite; Goodrich, at Olongapo on
the 4th, concluded surrender of in
surgents in country from Iba to
Morong."
The territory referred to in Admiral
Remey's dispatch is stretch of land
so miles long from Morong, just be-
low Subig bay, to Iba, point nearly
40 miles up the coast in Zambeles
province, portion of country which
has caused no end of trouble to the
American forces. Gen. Greedy said
Friday that the signal corps had at
least a dozen sharp fights in this vi
entity while endeavoring to maintain
open telegraphic communication with
Manila. The insurgents finally be-
came so aggressive that Gen. Greedy
decided to have cable laid from Dion
gapo, in Subig bay, which is the site
selected for the new naval station in
the Philippines, to connect with Ma
Mia, on account of the difficulty in
maintaining telegraphic communica-
ton overland. The laying of the ca
bic is now in progress. The news that
this troublesome portion of Luzon has
been pacified is hailed with satisfac-
ton by war department officials.

Danish DairyE,an Has Discovery Which
NAY Create Revolution In the Ship
ping of PerishabIe Products.

Copenhagen, April GA Danish butt
ter-mal1e, has discovered new pre-
sentative which eXcels everything in
that line heretofore known. BY means
of this preparation it is possible to
preserve butter, meats and all kinds
of perishable merchandise. Expert
ments show that butter can be pre-
served, melted and cooled off again
without losing any of it's freshness.
1t can also be placed among goods
that are decomposing or contain rank
odors without being affected. The
preparation is not injurious from a
sanitary point of view and will, it is
believed, create revolution in the
shipping of perishable merchandise.

WEALTH FOR UNCLE SAM.
New Steel Trust Organized by .. Pierpont
\ Morgan nIast Pay Over 100000
for Revenue Stamps. ~

Washington, April IAN official of
the internal revenue bureau of the
treasury department who delights in
figuring has estimated the revenue
that will come to the government as a
result of the organization of the
$1,000 100000 steel trust organized by
J. Pierpont Morgan. Under the rev
enue laws a. tax of two cents is i'm
posed on each 500 shares of stock
transferred. The same law imposes
a tax of five cents on each $10O of
bonds or stock of original issue. On
the basis. of $1,000, 900 900, the sum ac-
credited to the new steel trust, the
revenue will be: On two-cent tax,
100000; on fiye-cent tax, 100000.
This amounts to 100000, pretty tidy
sum for. the treasury of the United
States. If bonds are issued up to one
half the amount of the stock, which is
the usual practice, it will bring the
governments revenue up to about
$1,0O0,OOO, all of which will be repre-
scented in United. States documentary
internal revenue stamps.

LOOKS DARK TO HIM.
Bishop Turner Sees No Future for
Negro in the United States.
The Race a NOnentity, He Says. So Far as
Civil and Political Rights Are Cor
nered-Wants Them to Re-
turn to Africa,

Nashville, Tenn, April 8.-Bishop
II. NJ Turner, senior bishop of the
AFRICAN Methodist Episcopal church,
was - the city presiding over meet
ing OF the board of the Sunday-school
union. The bishop sees no hope for
ms race IN this country. In discussing
the future of the race he says: ''The
negro has as much fuure in the Unit
ed States, north or south, east or west,
OF being man, potential factor, and
hlIlng the bill of a citizen, enjoying
civil and political rights as a frog has
IN a sDake den. He is not regarded
oy the dominant owners as a part of
the American people, except in tho
TAX collectors office and in the peni-
tGntiary. So far as his civil and polit-
zeal rights are concerned or his social
status he is now a nonentity, and his
condition is destined to be worse. The
remedy is, do as God would have us
do-emigrate and gradually return to
the land of our ancestors. The negro
was brought here in the providence
OF God to learn obedience, to work,
z TO sing, to pray, to preach, acquire
education, deal with mathematical alb
stractlon and imbibe the principles of
civilization as whole, and then re-
turn to Africa, the land of his fathers,
and bring her millions to God. One
black missionary or teacher can do
more good in Africa that 20 whites.
1t is far the greatest continent on
earth, and the black man is crazy for
not going where he can be a man,
and congress should put line of ships
/. between this country and Africa to
help us return
