LOOK HERE FOR IT.
It is What the Reader Has
 Long Sought.

People will read advertisements about cures made by medicine. As they read they wonder If the statements are true. If true, was the relief temporary or per- pament? Read this case about Doans Kidney Pills:
 w. H. Carke, of Bennett Street. ac- countant at the Bloch Bros. Tobacco Works. Wheeling, W. Va, says: If my back aches. know what will cure 1t. Deans Kidney Pills. They are the best remedy ever came across. For months I was plagued with backache. not sharp pains, but a dull aching all the time. that made me feel miserable. l got med icine on different occasions from doc tors, and 1t seemed to relieve me for the time. but 1t was soon as bad as ever. Hearing of Doan's Kidney Pills, l took a course of the treatment. They cured me and that cure has been lasting. l will corroborate this in personal inter- view or in reply to any communication mailed to me-"

 spragins lralrss . Point.
 Senator spragins said that if the bill worked hardship on the men outside. 1t was iegislating in favor of the men in- side, and the matter narrowed down to . choice between politicians. He believed the Dill to be good one in many re- spects, but thought that the same ends could be gained through other channels.
 Senator Jones of Wilcox wanted to go on record as unalterabIy against the measure: He believed that the people had right to choose their officers. and thought that the passage of the bill by the Legislature would be an infringe ment on this right. He declared the ar gument of Senator Rogers, that those who are now in office are the choice of the people, unsound on account of the never-failing rule that the people always want to get out more than one official before his term expires.
 Senator Hipp of Cullman introduced an amendment. extending the terms to Au- gust, 1905. instead of August, 1907. The Hipp amendment prevents the oflicials going out in the midst of their years work. but does not make a conformity of elections.
 On motion of Senator Spragins, the bill and the Hipp amendment were recom- mitted.
 Senator Craig of Dallas moved that the consideration of the municipal code bill, which was reported favorably by the Committee on Municipalities, be set down as a special order for today, immediately after the disposal of the Harrison va grancy bill. which is the special order for today at noon.
 The Senate adjourned at 1a:so o'clock to meet at 3:30 p. m.

 Colonel Williams. on discovering the burglar ransacking his house, fought him with a saber until the burglar shot him and escaped. Mrs. Williams and their lit- tie granddaughter, were the only other occupants of the Williams homestead. midway between Ashland and Catletts- burg and they called the nelghbors, who summoned physicians.
 Colonel Williams has regained con- sciousness, but the feeling is intense.
 Hene Is a son-in-law of Colonel Will Hams and the people generally are as- slsting him in the search for the burglar.

RAILROAD NOTES.
Double Track Work on Roads in
 Virginia,

I
 l Laborers are being rushed from many parts of the South to the camps fin vir- ginia that are grading the road there for laying the double track of the South ern Railway. During the past few weeks nearly 200 negroes have come from North | Carolina to begin work on the railroad. Over 5000 men are at work on the road. scattered all along between Wash ington and Manassas
 Already from Alexandria to Manassas. a distance of eighteen miles. the road has been graded, a great part of it dou- ble-tracked and some of it surfaced" The laborers will be brought on South as fast as the track-laying there Is com pleted. The whole undertaking Is under the supervision of Captain Dodson and Supervisor Lynch of the Southern. The work of double-tracking the Rich mond, Fredericksburg and Potomac rail- way from Richmond to Washington is also being pushed. The tracks from Rich- | mond to Ashland have been completed and are in active use daily and a stretch of twenty miles this side of Ruther Glen Is about ready for the rails. The contract for building the road from Quantico to Washington has been let. and 1t Is expected that the road will be ready for use before the rush of travel next year. About A,00o.000 is to be spent before the improvements are completed. The number of trains over the road daily is nearly a hundred, and in order to ac- commodate the increase in business dou- ble-tracking is a necessity. S5
 The additional track will greatly facil- itate the shipments of freight between the South and the North, especially from the trucking sections. where 1t is im- portant that trains of vegetables shall be gotten to market in the shortest pos sible time. r..
 The Norfolk Public Ledger says: as
 "The announcement that the Southern Railway probably contemplates double tracking it's line between Norfolk and Charlotte, N. C., caused no surprise to those familiar with the vast amount of business the road is doing here. The in- creased traffic reflected at Pinners Point is clear to all. From 5.0O0,000 pounds to 10000. 900 pounds of freight are said to be handled every day at the Primers Point terminal. This is fed to the Chesapeake Line for Baltimore, to the Merchants and Miners Line for Boston. to the Clyde Line for Philadelphia and to the Old Do- minion Line for New York. From all these lines the Southern gets freight in return. Insiders expect that the South ern's business this fall will exceed any
 in its history. The Seaboard Air Line Is also said to be largely increasing its freight trajc. The knowing expect ex- ports from this point to increase heavily in the near future"

short tons, or 16.5 per cent, and this in- crease would have been much larger had
 the transportation facilities been com mensurate with the demand for coke and with the productive capacity of the ovens.
 The unprecedented production of coke in 1902 was accompanied by an increase of value which was even more worthy of note. The average price per ton at the ovens was the highest recorded in @ period of twenty three years, and the total value reached the high figure of 6 .3ss, ,1s7. an in- crease over the preceding year of s1S.S9S,- PA, or 425 per cent. The value of the coal used in the manufacture of coke in 1902 exceeded that of 1901 by H922,563, from which 1t appears that the value of the coke product increased SIG, ,970, ,6S1 over and above the increased value of the coal used in its production. In 1901 the high est price obtained for Connellsville fur mace coke was M.25. which was paid in March and April of that year. In Septem- coke was nominally quoted at g per ton. consumers were paying from $10 to SIP per ton for prompt delivery. and as much as st5 per ton was reported. Tt
 During 19o2 there were 6o, o,o69 coke ovens in existence in the United States, as com pared with 63.s61 ovens in 1901. Of these 69,06e ovens, 67124 were active and pro- dueed an average of 37S.4 tons per oven. The total number In 1902 included 1.663 by product recovery ovens. which produced 1,lo3,5SS tons of coke an average of SA tens of coke per oven. h,' ]. In the order of production. Pennsylvania ranked first, with IS, 497 ,910 short tons, an increase over 1901 of i,993 tons: Ala bama came second, with 2,552,246 short tons, an increase of 4o3,3 ,335 tons; West vir- ginia third, with 2.516,505 short tons, an increase of 232, ,SO5 tons; Virginia fourth, with 1,12i,572 short tons, an increase of 27.442 short tons; Colorado fifth, with 1.0Os. .S93 short tons, an increase of S32.09O tons-the percentages of increase for these States being Pennsylvania, 14.92: Ala bama. 1S.77; West Virginia, l0.1s; Virginia. 2397; Colorado. 49.H.
 The quantity of coal used In 1902 to pro- duce %, ,4o1. .730 short tons of coke was 39.- 604,07 short tons, as compared with 34 9Ol.- 965 short tons used to produce 21, ,sS3 tons of coke in 1901, an increase of 5,396,- 042 short tons of coal in 1902 over 1901. The value of the coal consumed increased from $3i, ,37S, ,631 to $39, ,301 194. In 1901 the value of the coal used in making a ton of coke was $1.A, and the average price per ton for the coke produced was $2.04, a difference or 60 cents on each ton. In 1902 the value of the coal used in making 8 ton of coke was $1.54, and the average price per ton of coke was $2.49. a differ ence of 95 cents on each ton of coke.
 The quantity of coke imported into the United States in 1902 amounted to 140,4SS short tons, valued at $423,7 ,775 as compared with 72,727 short tons, valued at $266075, in 1901 The exports of coke in 1902 amount ed to 439,590 short tons. valued at H,7S,- ISS as compared with 43O, ,450 short tons. valued at $1,5 ,s9S, in 1901.

MONTGOMERY THEATRE.
"The Telephone Girl" Drew a Large
 Audience.

For the third successive year "The Tel ephone Girr' drew large audience to the Montgomery Theatre last night.
 RecoIlections of the pleasant hours the musical comedy had whiled away in the past and a desire to see the well known skit drew the audience. The producing company was mediocre.
 Max Bloom as Hans Nix was funny at intervals and occasionally made the au- dience laugh but in no particular did he meet the standard set by his predecessors in Montgomery.
 Nellie V. Nichols as Estelle Coocoo spoke her lines cleverly but her singing voice was unpleasant. Her rendition of the popular "Hiawatha" seemed to please the audience.
 The one speciality introduced which met with anything like enthusiasm was an ec- centric dance act by Henry Bergman.
 McFadden's Row of Flats is the attrac- tion for tonight.

LONDON DRAWS COLOR LINE.
Publican Refuses to Serve Party ot
 Negroes.

New York. Sept 9.-London has begun to draw the color line says a Herald dis patch from that city. Complaint has just been made to the magistrate at the Marl- borough Street police court by a negro of gentlemanly appearance who said that he and some friends had been refused re- treatments by publican. simply because of their color. The applicant wished to know whether he and his friends, who were from different parts of British dominions. were to be treated little bet ter than wild beasts.
 The magistrate said: T sympathize with you and think the publicans re- fusal a very foolish and unkind act, but I cannot alter the law as it stands"
 The magistrate then entered into a long explanation, the gist of which was that while a publican was bound to supply anyone with food or refreshments as a traveller there was nothing in the law to compel anyone to sell anything to any body.
 The negro thanked the magistrate for this precise information and withdrew

Miss Agnes Miller, of Chicago, speaks to young women about dangers of the Menstrual Period how they can avoid pain, suffering and remove the cause,

SulleTlng and remove the cause.
 " l suffered for six years with dys- menorrhea (painful periods), so much so that dreaded every month, as knew it meant three or four days of intense pain. Tho doctor said this was due to an infiamed condition of the uterine appendages caused by repeated and neglected colds and feet wettine.
 If young girls only realized how dangerous it is to take cold at this critical time, much suffering would be spared them. Thank God for Lydia F. Pinkham's Vegetable Conn pound, that was the only medicine which helped me any. Within three weeks after I started to take it, noticed marked improvement in my general health, and at the time of my next monthly period the pain had diminished considerably. l kept up the treatment and was cured a month later. I am like another person since am in perfect health" Miss AGNES MILLER, 25 Potomac Ave, Chicago, Ill. -s5oo0 JOyfeit U original of dbOUe letter proving genuineneSs cannot Dc produced.

men are dead and two are severely
wounded as result of shooting af-
fray last night at the door of the op-
era house just as the theatre goers
were leaving the house.
During the play William Cuff. a
miner, and who had also served in

cial policeman, took the cigar away
from him. after having repeatedly
advised him to desist This enrag.
ed Cuff and he at once left the house
vowing vengeance on Rose. He
soon returned with a revolver and
stationed himself at the entrance of
the theatre. After the performance
was over Rose was one of the first
to leave the building. Cuff. as soon
as he saw him opened fire upon him.
Rose was ready for him and return

GUARDING TOM HORN.
Officials Fear that Desperate At
tempt Will Be Made to
Rescue Him.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 10.-Gover-
nor Chatterton will decide Tom
Horns fate Thursday night. Depu-
ties with Gatling and Hotchkiss guns
are constantly on guard at the Jail
In anticipation of the attempt of the
cattlemen to release Horn. The
threat has been commonly made that
Tom Horn will never suffer death
by the hangman's rope. In evidence
that means will be taken to carry
out this threat a bit of startling in
formation fell into the hands of Sher
iff Smalley today in the shape of a
small piece of paper on which tho
number I'll" had been marked twice
and other characters not plainly dis
cernible. The paper had been
thrown into the court yard in such
a place where Horn could see it
from his cell window The same fig
ures and marks had been placed on
a building across the street from the
jail in plain view of Horns cell.
These marks were taken to mean
that Horns friends will attempt to
liberate him on the eleventh day of
the eleventh month at the eleventh
hour. This would be tomorrow al
ther at eleven o'clock in the morn
ing or eleven o'clock at night.
