BROUGHT TO LIGHT.
cresco People Receiving the full
Benefit.

There have been many cases like
the following in Cresco. Every one
rclates the experience of people we
know. These plain, straightforward
statements will do much toward re-
lieving the suffering of thousands.
Such testimony will be read with In
terest by many people.
j. H. Andrus, stage driver between
Cresco and Riceville, says: 81 knew
for seven or eight years, from pains
across the loins and through the kid
neYs, particularly noticeable in the
morning for an hour or two after
got up, always evident when stopped
or lifted anything that for some reason
my kidneys were not working proper
ly. My occupation, getting in and
cut of carriage SO often, riding over
rough roads, aggravates kidney COM
plant and backache, if not the pri-
mary cause, and when a man suffer-
ing from this ailment contracts cold,
which always settles in his loins, he
may be certain that increased twinges
and aching will follow. While suffer
ing severely and in quest OF something
to check the cause l happened to read
about Doan's Kidney Pills and was in
duoed to go to the Shuttleworth Drug
Company's store for box. Its use as
directed stopped the last attack, and
in more ways than one improved my
health"

PREDICTS GREAT THINGS
!, p. Weicand Thinks Wlcnl.a WIN
Have Population of 100000.

JP weigand, of Conklin & Weigana,
made some very gigantic estimations anu
predictions yesterday to reporter io'
the Eagle which are good food for statis-
ticisns and mathematicfans.
Mr. Weigand said in part: Il have traV-
.,ea over a great portion of these United
states ard have noted particularly the
most interesting features in the upoulid-
ing and development of cities, ana
have arrived at a satisfactory cohciu-
sion as to the future of many OF our
municipalities.
"Of course. it is natural for me to speak
fu the highest language of Nlchlta, De-
cause am interested, but it is an insur-
mountable fact that we are destined 10
become the largest. as well as the most
beautiful city In the state of Kansas MY
reasons? why. We are located just far
enough from any town of Importance to
be safe from any injury in that respect;
ana we will in the course of time be the
greatest railroad center in the state;
we are situated in the finest wheat pro-
ducing belt in the world; we have
healthy place for homes; and TO cap the
climax, we have as good class of citi-
gems as the world furnishes.
with numerous wholesale houses, man
ufactories. packing houses. mills and
other industries now established and TO
be established. we may rest assured
that Wichita is on a magnificent and
lintless progress.
1T was but a few years ago since
this part of Kansas was known to the
far East as a lonely. hopeless desert and
sou1ess waste, but that opinion has given
away TO a truer and better verdict. Now
we are no longer hatefully called the
driest, hottest spot on the globe; instead,
We are rightfully admired and accosted as
thu Eden of America.
And Wichita? She is the queen of the
western eiysium.
She will grow and forge on TO the
front. Nothing can hold her.
Il think 1 am not over-estimating the
case when 1 state that we will have in
the year OF 1910 a population of 5o.0ooo;
ard by 1925 our population will be 10000.
What is there to obstruct us? What
to keep US from going even beyond this

RALPH Balm TO
TESTIFY AT TRIAL
Defence Will Try to Prove
That Flynn
INTENDED TO SHOOT Balm
Defendant to Admit Shooting
in Self Defense.
INTENDED TO SHOOT Balm

The people Of this city who read the
preliminary trial of Ralph Balm and made
up their minds that he would not be able
to make very much of defense may find
themselves mistaken when the case comes
on for final trial in the January term of
the district court. The defendant in such
cases does not have TO put in any evidence
at the preliminary trial unless he sees mt
to do so. When Ralph Balm was arraign-
ed before Judge Alexander for prelini-
nary hearing on the charge of killing
William Finn there was not q word said
in his defense but enough has transpired
since that time TO give the county attorney
a pretty good idea of what the line of de-
Tense is going to be.
During the preliminary hearing the at
teFneys for Gain by a rigid cross examina-
ton of Ines Miller. who was a witness for
the state, got her to admit that revolver
was found in her door yard the next
morning after the killing and that she
had made an effort to conceal il and for
that purpose had taken it out of the city.
1t is now understood that the defense
Will try to show at the trial of the case
that this revolver belonged to Ines Miller
and that she gave it to Finn just before
he was shot by Ralph Balm and that after
he was shot and left the room he attempt
ed to hide the revolver by throwing it into
the yard where it was picked up the next
morning by neishbor.
II is also understood that the defense
will try to show that Finn induced Balm
TO go to Ines Miller's place that night
That he spoke to another man about This
and asked him to get Balm to go 10 the
Miller place on fremont street and that
this was after the reported disturbance
in the West Douglas avenue resort ear
Her I'm the evening.
James Coniey has been retained to assist
County Attorney Eckstein in the prosecu-
ton of the case and the defense will be
conducted by Adams & Adams and S. b.
Amidon. Some of the attorneys predict
that ii will be one of the most holly con-
tested eases ever tried in the district
court of this county. 1t is understood
that Ralph Balm will go on the witness
stand in his own defense and admit the
shooting and claim that he did it to save
his own life. He will swear that he be-
lieved that Finn was going to shoot him
and he will attempt to show by other
evidence that he had grounds for this be-

in the district court.
To Lydia Egleston. the plaintiff, was
given the real and personal property. and

her a divorce.
To the defendant was given 500 and
gentle roasting by the court.
The plaintiff was ordered to pay the
costs OF tie suit.
The case was q hard fought one and
