A DOCTOR THIS TIME.

Portland, May Cdr. E. A. Rose,
a practicing physician, formerly of
Yates Center, Kan, was on what
everyone supposed was his death bed.
He had Diabetes, and six of his brother
doctors were in attendance and con-
sultation at his bedside. They had
done everything that medical skill
could suggest to save his life, but they
were at last reluctantly forced to tell
him that he must prepare for death.
His aunt had been summoned to his
dying bedside After the doctors had
given her nephew up, she insisted that
as last resort, he be given treat
ment of Dodd's Kidney Pills.
From the very first dose, the tide
turned in his favor. His life was saved,
and he is hale and hearty to-day.
This case and it's cure has amazed
the physicians, and is the sensation Of
the hour. 1t is interesting to nota
that while many others are being
cured by this great discovery in medf4
cine, the physicians themselves are
while the simpler and more prevalent
forms, such as rheumatism, Sciatica,
Bladder and Urinary Trouble and Fe-
male Weakness disappear before it,
the more malignant forms, such as
Bright's Disease, Diabetes and Dropsy,
which have always been regarded as
incurable, are yielding just as easily.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are fast super
seding all other treatments for Kidney
Disease, and as nearly all human sick
ness and suffering has its origin in the
Kidneys, the use of this wonderful
medicine is becoming almost universal.

words to the assembled throngs. The

SEIZED AN IRISH PAPER.
English Government Objects to an Attack
Upon the King and Catholics Loyal
to the Crown.

Dublin, May 1.-THE police of
Cork. Limerick and other towns of
Ireland seized all the copies of Will
liam O'Brien's weekly paper, ''The
Irish People," found at the newsdeal-
ers. The offending articles were
abusive attacks on King Edward. Car
dinal Vaughan and the address to the
king, which, the paper declares, was
such as might have been presented to
Legree half century ago. The ar
ticle finds consolation in the fact that
the presentees were English Catho-
lies, ''who are repudiated by the on
ly really Catholic nation now in ex-
istence. The 1oyalists represented
England only, and if the English
Catholics choose to acknowledge
themselves snperstitio-s ;dolators it is
no fault of ours"

Man Who Is Blamed for Bringing the Ital-

lola, Kan, MAY 11.-Four men have
been arrested so far for completely
in the rioting here on Wednesday
night when the Italian workmen
brought here to work in the cement
plant were forcibly removed from
their hunks and conducted to the sta
tion and shipped away. Rumors of in
iuries have dwindled to the assertion
that Mr.. Williams is carrying a ball
in the back of his neck, probably fired
by an excited friend behind him. The
cement plant is running without in
reference, but the output yesterday
was about 1,4OO barrels as compared
10 1900 the day the Italians helped
in the factory. The company is anX-
ious to get full force and catch mp
with orders and so feels inclined to
meet the demands of the workmen
that one of the foremen, Sid Wing,
he relieved. Wing is the son of a
rich Michigan man who owns stock
in the company and came here when
the plant was begun. He never got
along smoothly with the men under
him and the sentiment was strong
against him. Now he is charged with
the bringing here of the Italians and
when he walked along the street last
night with two friends Il mob of about
100 followed on his heels, hooting and
making threats. No violence was
done, but if he remains here trouble
is likely TO develop. 1t is believed the
company would relieve him. but for
the seeming weakening in the face of
the mob. The company is anxious to
work about $50 additional men and
if these can he secured it will gladly
refrain from importations. The news
that the Italian consul will make the
affair a matter of international i'm
portance made no impression here,
the county attorney having offered the
Italians protection if they would re-
main and resume work. which they
declined to do.
