CERTAIN RESULTS.
Many a Missouri Valley Citizen
knsws How Sure They Are.

Nothing uncertain about the
work of Doan's Kidney Pills in

plenty of positive proof of this
in the testimony of citizens.
Such evidence should convince
the most skeptical doubter.
Read the following statement:
w. A. Donahue, painter and
paper hanger of 818 Michigan
street says: 1'Like the majority
of men who follow my calling
have been annoyed at different
times with kidney complaint
beginning some eight years ago
with slight pain in my back
which increased until it became
decidedly annoying. If the in
haling of the ingredients used
in my occupation was not the
primary cause of the trouble it
at least aggravated it when at
tacks were in the virulent stage.
| noticed latterly that in damp
or wet weather | suffered con-
siderable and to stoop or
straighten often caused such
excruciating pain across the
loins | thought my back was
breaking in two. | never quit
work but | felt many a time
like it in spite of all remedies /
used. Doan's kidney Pills
were the last preparation /
tried. They commenced to re-
gulate the kidney secretions
and when they were brought to
a normal action the backache
ceased"

MET 1aAG.c DEATH.
Accident Occurred Saturday AZ
ternocn and He Lived But
Two HOurs--Funeral
This Forenoon.

here, met death in a runaway
accident Saturday afternoon in
this CITY, The details of the
sad affair are about as follows:
Orley and his younger brother,
Ray, had come to town with 9
load of wood for Jake Deal
They drove a young team Of
horses and had a double top
box on the wagon. Shortly
after 2 o'clock they started for
home, Ray driving the team.
WHERE THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED
When they arrived at Ninth
street and across the railroad
track directly south of the
Updike elevator a single tree
became detached from t. e
double trees on the wagon, and
becoming frightened, the horses
commenced to kick and run.
When they had gone about one
block the wagon tongue dropped
from the neckyoke and ran into
the ground. The horses were
going at such speed this raised
the wagon box in such a way
that Orley was pitched from
the high seat, and eye witnesses
who saw the accident say he
was thrown quite high in the
air before falling to the side of
the wagon.
Ray chung to the lines in a
vain endeavor to stop the team
but could not do so and a half
block further ON and in front
of VIM. Hursts residence the
team made a sharp turn to the
left and overturned the wagon.
Ray was thrown out but strange
as it may seem, was uninjured.
oRLEY WAS UNCONSCIOUS.
Ray at once ran back to his
brother and by this time sew
eral neighbors had gathered at
the scene of the accident. The
young man lay by the roadside,
his head in a pool of blood, and
he was unconscious. 1t was at
first thought to carry him to a
nearby home, but two of his
brothers, Marion and Edward,
were in town and hearing of
the accident, drove out to the
place and took him to DR.. Gas
sons hospital where an exam
ination was made and it was
found that the whole right side
of his forehead was crushed to
a jelly and there was a constant
hemmorrhage from a fracture
at the base of the nose. DIR.
Gasson could give no hope for
recovery and the members of
the family were called but he
remained unconscious to the
end and died a few minutes
after 4 o'clock, just about two
hours after the accident oc-
CURED. The wound in the
head could hardly have been
made by striking on the ground
and it is thought that when he
was thrown from the wagon he
fell in such a way as to strike
the side of his head against the
hub or hind wheel of the
wagon.
When the wagon was over
turned in front of the Hurst
home the team got loose from
it and ran through a clump of
willows on the south side of
the house and around to the
street east, where Mr.. Hurst
caught them. One single tree
was still attached to the tugs
of the harness on one horse and
the other was found several
rods from the wagon.
THE FUNERAL.
The funeral was held from
the home of the parents this
forenoon at 10 o'clock, con-

a year or more. Too heavy are the inter-
ests dependent upon their close personal at

Now these men assume ce rtafn reSpon-
sibility when they accept tn, position OF
directors Unfortunately the law Is not
sufficiently explicit in the definition OF this
responsibility. The New Jersey indictments
will perhaps lead to revelation OF the
laxity of the statutes and the difficulty OF
pinning the accountability for disasters
down upon the right person, and. further
more the persons whom the community can
punish justly and without inf1icting serious
injury elsewhere. They should likewise
teach the men Of capital that they can
not lightly accept the direction of the
affairs Of the corporations which SO closely
touch the rights and the safety OF the
public. The capitalist, whose name ap-
pears In the directories Of a score or two
Of corporations, cannot expect to give TO
each the int.mate attention 1t deserves. The
law may not perhaps rightly place limit
upon his activities but 1t can and should
distinctly define his accountability, and in
terms to cause him at all times to reduce
to a minimum the chances Of happenings
which will put him in danger of punish
