HARD ON MOTHER.
Some ottumwa Mothers Know Well
How Hard 1t Is.

A mothers cares are never light,
and it's no wonder. Backache, and
other kidney ills increase her daily
burden. There is one sure way to
make the burden lighter. Let an Of
tumwa mother show you how.
Mrs. G. H.. Sponsler, of Burnside,
near Sheridan Ave-, South Ottumwa,
says: Our little girl, when about a
year and half old, had an attack
of lagrippe, which affected her kid
neys and the auxiliary organs, leav
ing them in weakened condition.
She partially lost the power of con-
troll and as a result was annoyed dur
ing the day and her rest frequently
disturbed during the night. | saw
Doan's Kidney Pills advertised for
such troubles and went to Will l..
Sargent's drug store and got box
for her. Before she had used half
of it we noticed a decided benefit and
continuing the treatment for a time
longer her kidneys appeared in a
normal condition. After stopping the
use of the remedy the weakness did
not return"
Sold for so cents per box. For sale
by all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co.,
Buffalo, N. Y, sole agents for the
United States.
Remember the name Doan's and
take no other.

ceives Promotion on Lake Shore

From Tuesdays Daily.

rAoii aDdlly.
According to a dispatch from Bur
lington beginning Wednesday, July, 1
the trainmen of the Burlington will
get an increase in wages as a result
OF the p. R. c. and B. R. r. general

Gals OF the Burlington which came. to
conclusion in Galesburg, ILL.,, Satur-
day evening. The new schedule will
golnto effect on Wednesday and by
its terms the freight conductors and
brakemen will &c an increase of IS per
cent. The switchmen will get an in
crease OF 2 cents an hour which will
make 20 cents for a ten hour day.
Noisotficial copy of the schedule has
yet been seen, but it is understood
that the double header question was
also arranged. Where double header
is used the size Of the train will be
such as the larger engine could pull.
This clause is to prevent any increase
in the size of the trains. There is also
limit to the size of the train when
two small engines are used.
A Long Conference.
The conference by which the sched-
ule has been made out has been Of long
duration. The men originally asked
for 20 per cent. The compromise fig
ures We're finally agreed upon and it
is understood that this raises the nay
OF the men to what it is on other stan
dard lines throughout the country. The
negotiations We're conducted with good
feeling on both sides.
The switchmen heretofore have been
paid at the rate of % cents an hour for
helpers and rs cents for foremen. The
new pay is 81 cents for helpers and 80
for foremen Va
II. S. storrs Advanced. e
H. S. Storrs, of Creston, who was I'M
til February, 1902, superintendent of
the Creston division of the Burling-
ton extending from Creston to Coun-
Gil Bluffs, and who resigned his posi-
ton to go to the Lake Shore, has been
advanced from the position of assist
ant general superintendent to that of
general superintendent of the Lake
Shore with offices at Cleveland.
The appointment is effective July
list and the official notification is sign
ed by w. HI. Marshall, who was re-
Gently promoted to the position Of
general manager, and approved by w.
c. Brown, vice president of the New
York Central and Lake Shore roads.
Rapid Promoting.
The advancement that Mr.. Storrs has
sustained since his connection with the
Vanderbilt system is certainly crafty
ing to his friends in this city. He is
an inveterate worker, a capable rail
road man and his promotions have
come fast Those who are familiar
with conditions on the Lake Shore are
of the opinion that he will continue to
advance. 1t was thought that the
| headquarters of Mr.. Storrs would be
changed from Cleveland to, Chicago
and this may transpire as the Lake
Shore is getting ready to open UP
new station in Chicago.

italian Government Fears Results of
Pope's Illness.

Rome, June 30.-Although the health
of the pope is much improved, the Itali-
an government, so as to be prepared
for any eventuality, has ordered two
regiments in the privinces to be kept
ready to come to Rome and re-enforce
the garrison in the city so that the au-
thorities will have sufficient force to
maintain order and insure the liberty
of the conclave should it become nee
essary to hold one. If the cardinals
as after the death of Plus TX decide to
meet at the vatican the government
will surround the palace with a Gordon
of troops to prevent any attempt
against the freedom of the conclave
and also the removal of values from
the vatican during the interregnum, as
was customary before 1870.
