Franksville, Wis.,, Oct. 12.-Many RI
markable cures are being reported
from all over the country, but there ID
one right here in Franksville which is
certainly worth publishing, and which
has not as yet been given to the public.
Mrs. Louis Markison of this place
had been a sick woman for quite q
long time and could not find anything
to give her any help. She suffered all
the painful symptoms of what is gen.
orally known as female weakness. Ev.
cry woman who reads her story will
understand these distressing conditions
which combine to make the lives Of
many wome one long bulIcn Of
weakness and suffering.
Mrs. Markison CHANGED one day to
hear of a new remedy called Dodd's
Kidney Pills. that was said to be
rplendid medicine for women's weak
ness. She determined to try some and
soon found herself getting better. She
kept on with the pills and was cured.
Speaking of her case Mrs. Markison
says:
Il can and do praise Dodd's Kidney
Pills as a remedy for female weakness.
They are the best medicine l have aver
known, and have done me a great deal
Of good"

Three Hundred of eoston's Chinese
Arrested by United States Officers.

Boston, Oct. 15.-Nearly 300 China
men were arrested Sunday night in the
Celestial section of the city by the fed
eral authorities. The raid, 1t Is alleged,
is the result of q highbinders' plot and
the murder of Wong Yak Chung in
Chinatown two weeks ago. The raid
was made under the direction of Mr..
Billings, the immigration commissioners,
and the men arrested are those who

All those who are unable to prove

licemen m a number of the Cinnamon

of Wong Yak Chung was followed by

Five patrol wagons at once began
transporting them TO the federal build
ing. and the prisoners arrived so fast
that the place was soon filled to over
flowing. Milk wagons, a barge and
finally an electric car were pressed into
service. The barge was started Off
first, but it had hardly moved a dozen
feet when 1t overturned and the occu-
panst, consisting OF five Cinnamon,
fifteen policemen and two drivers. were
thrown into the street in a confused
mass. The prisoners, momentarily
freed from restraint, made a frantic
dash for liberty, and for five minutes
the street was Il scene of disorder. In
the end nearly all the Cinnamon were
taken back TO the detention hall and
finally safely removed to stronger
quarters in the federal building.

ticket issued by the Ross Labo agency,
from Chicago to Iowa Falls. The man WAS
extremely we'll dressed, except for his lack
OF either a coat or a hat. Besides these
few facts, however, nothing is known of
the man, and his mind seems to be Il
blank. He does not know how lie came to
be wandering about the country, nor In
deed does he know anything that has
transpired since he left Chicago. lie cam
