NEARLY GONE.

Mrs. Julia A. Mallahan, of Owosso,
Mich, Has a Very Narrow Escape
The Doctor Had Little Hope.
Owosso, Mich, March 25.-(Spe-
cial.)-Elite Rebekah Lodge, No. 2, 1.
O. o. f., Of this town, came very near
ly losing their esteemed and capable
Secretary, Mrs. Julia A. Mallahan.
Mrs. Mallahan caught a severe cold
last winter, and like many others, fail
ed to recognize the dangerous possibili-
ties until 1t had settled in her kidneys,
aid left her with very severe bearing
down pains and almost constant back
ache. 1t almost carried her of. Mrs.
Mallahan tells the story this way
II caught a cold last winter, which 1
neglected until it settled in my kidneys,
causing severe hearing-down pains and
almost constant backache. My health
had previously been so good that 1 paid
little attention to these symptoms, un-
til the disease had gone SO far that my
doctor entertained but d slight hope of
my recovery.
Fortunately one of our Lodge Mem
hers mentioned Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Her description of the cures they had
effected sounded like a fairy tale, but l
sent for a box, deciding to give them Il
trial. I soon found that she had but
half told the story of what they could
do. l bless the day I first tried them,
and have nothing but the highest
praise for them"
Many very valuable lives have been
saved by the timely use Of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills, and not a few of these have
been in OwOsso and other neighboring
Michigan towns. There seems to be no
case Of kidney trouble or backache that
Dodd's Kidney Pills will lot cure.
They are Zoe a box; six boxes for
$3.50. Buy them from your local drug

To Swap Church Buildings.

Rev. I. b. Shanafelt. Baptist missionary
Of South Dakota, while at Buffalo Gap,
found that there were but. three members
of the Congregational Church there, with
a fine church building. There was quite a
congregation of Baptists at the place, with
no place of worship. In the eastern part
of the state there is a similar condition of
affairs, only the Baptist people own the
church with few members, and the Con-
gregationalists are in need Of a building.
A trade is being made. The Baptists at
Buffalo Gap are to take the Congregational
building for their own, and the Congrega-
tionalists are to have the church in the
eastern part of the state.

Garlic as Consumption Cure.

Garlic is the latest cure for consump-
ton. DR.. Giulio Cavazzani, an Italian
physician, has been experimenting in
the hospitals of Venice. and is convinc-
ed that garlic is a most valuable the
rapeutic agent in cases of phthisis. 1t
has long been known to sailors who
have traded to the malarial coasts of
West Africa that garlic, used in liberal
quantities, was Il preventive of coast
fever. Garlic is u most powerful agent
for the cleansing of the alimentary
canal, which may account for some Of
its medicinal virtues.
Dr. CavaZzani gave to his patients
garlic cut into small pieces and dried.
he had to administer it in fractional
doses in order to combat the distaste
which most of the patients had for the
vegetable. He treated over 200 pa
tents ,givingto them, in addition to the
garlic, the ordinary s%ymptomatic treat
ment.
He afirms that an improvement took
place i'll all cases, and was especially
marked in those which were in their
first stages. The bacilli gradually
grew less until they finally disappear
ed, the cough lessened, and the local
physical signs began to disappear.
There vas a marked improvement in
appetite and general condition. 1t is a
little early yet to pronounce upon the
doctors discovery but he has every
faith in it, and 1t is attracting the at
tention of the profession.

President r. d. Nichols. of District
No. 1, yesterday stated to Tribune
man that the reports made to him of
the results of the visits made by the
miners grievance committees to the
respective superintendents of the COM
panics operating their coilieries We're
unsatisfactory, and that the matter
would in all probability come up for
action at the meeting of the district
board, which will be held today.
President Nichols and Henry COL
lins, of Carbondale another member Of
the Judiciary board, returned Thurs
day from Harrisburg, where they have
cndeavored to secure the passage of
the important mining legislation in the
hands of the senate committee on
mines and mining. Said Mr.. Nichols
yesterday:
in accordance with their own
wishes, our men visited the operators
and presented their local grievances,
Among other things the miners of each
company asked for a uniform day wage
scale at the collieries of their particu-
lar company and this was refused.
They asked that their companies fix II
uniform price on rock work and this,
too, was refused. ON none of these
important questions We're favorable
answers received.
1.-The request that the mines be
worked regularly eight hours was
taken under consideration, and a reply
on the matter is expected later. The
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
company made some minor cOnces-
sions. They agreed i'm some cases to
vary the payment by the carload, and
this has been much desired as at pres
ent there are frequently cars of sew
eral different sizes used and the same
pay given for each
'"These We're the most important
matters submitted to the superintend-
ents. There was not as has been
stated, general demand for an in
crease in wages, but uniformity of
wages was rather the main issue"
President Nichols, i'm discussing the
march to- Harrisburg project origin
ated in the lower district, declared that
he did not think there would be any
necessity for IA gathering of the clans
but in event that there should be, q
strong local representation can be
counted upon to appear at the state
capital in the interests of the bills now
In the senate, and those yet before the
committee.
I'VE have succeeded" he remarked
"in getting,three of the bills out of the
committee and before the senate. They
are the ones providing for the election
of mine inspectors by the people, thai
providing for weighing coal before
screening, and the one which stiN,i,
lates each colliery must be provided
with a medicine chest and other ar.
ticles which are necessary In event OF
accidents.

striking as it is, represents, however,
only one feature of the show. There
are thirty famous riders. sixty fearless
aerialists, sixty world-renowned aero
bats and hundreds of other special
lists, and the performance given in the
three rings and double stages, in mid
air and upon the fourth-mile hippo
drome track surpasses anything ever
attempted much less accomplished,
by any other cirucs management on
