Decision of Judge Hanford i'm Regard
to Return of American
Born Chinese.

Seattle, Wash, July Judge c.
II. Hanford, of the federal court,
handed down a decision on a habeas
corpus case in which he made some
pointed comments on the past meth
DDS of bringing in Chinese aliens as
American-born Chinese. The court
stated that it believed American wit
nesses had been bought to testify
falsely as to alien Chinese having
been born in Seattle and stated that
hereafter he would consider that all
Chinese born in Seattle prior to 1890
who had gone to China had conta
back. He proposes to let no more
Chinese in on this claim. 1t is al
legged that a regular system has eN-
listed in this city of hiring men to
swear that Chinese are known to
them as having been born in Seattle.

BETTER THAN CHRISTIAN
SCIENCE.

Jetmore, Kan. July 1st.-Mrs. Anna
Jones Freeman, daughter of Mr.. G..
G. Jones, of Burdett, and one of the
most popular ladies in Hodgeman
County, has been martyr to head
ache for years. 1t has made her life
a continual misery to her. She suf-
fered pains in the small of the back,
and had every symptom of Kidney
and Urinary Trouble.
To-day she is as well as any lady
in the state.
This remarkable change was due
entirely, to a remedy recently intro
duced here. 1t is called Dodd's Kid
ney Pills, and many people claim it to
be an infallible cure for Kidney Dis
eases, rheumatism and Heart
Trouble.
Mrs. Freeman heard of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills, and almost with the first
dose she grew better. In a week her
headaches and other pains had gone,
and she had left behind her all her
illness and days of misery.
A medicine that can do for any one
what Dodd's Kidney Pills have done
for this lady, is very sure soon to be
universally used, and already the de-
mand for these pills has increased
wonderfully in Pawnee and Hodge
man Counties, where the particulars
of Mrs. Freeman's case and its cure
are known.
