greatest and wisest Man that
ever lived teach us to pray,
"Give us this day our daily
bread" The hands, with which
we do so many cunning and
skillful things, the eyes that re-
veal to us all the sun shines on,
the hearts which beat within
our breasts, were once merely
the yet uneaten food upon our
plates. What a strange, what a
wonderful transformation The
body builds ITSELF No other ma
chine can do so. Yet when the
wear and tear becomes greater
than the process of repair we
grow weak. and waste away. If
we could keep the loss and the
gain balanced, or nearly so, we
should live long and be able to
work and enjoy ourselves all the
time. The opposite condition
we call sickness or disease. To

vent permanent loss of flesh and

To Be Depended On
Because 1t Is the Experience
of a Honolulu Citizen and
Can Readily be In
vestigated.

A stranger lost in a large city would
rections given him by a local resident
than the guidance of another stranger
like himself. This is a natural conse-
quence of experience; it's like a ship
in a strange port-a trusty pilot fami-
liar with the harbor is always called
upon to bring her safely to her moor
ings So it is with endorsement; we
doubt the sayings of people living at
distant point because we can't investi-
gate, but public expression of local
citizens can be depended upon, for tits
an easy matter to prove 1t. Evidence
like the following is beyond dispute:-
Mr.. w. F. Williams of this city, is
lighthouse keeper, and he has held this
position for the last 80 years. He says:
1T was for a number of years. one of
that numerous army of people who
suffer with their backs. Mine ached
and panied me to no small extent, so
that 1 was glad when heard of a rem
edy for it, Doan's Backache Kidney
Pills. I obained some of these at the
HOLSTER Drug Co.'S store, and took
them. They gave me great relief, and
L make this short narration of my ex-
periences for the benefit of others who
perhaps do not know that nearly all
backache arises from the kidneys, and
the best medicine for it is Doan's Back
ache Kidney Pills"

gists; sent by mail on receipt of price

Report of the Bureau.

Washington, March 1.-THE Wealth
er Bureau tonight issued the follow
ing special river bulletin:
The Ohio river at Evansville will not
change materially during the next two
days, but will continue to rise below.
AT Paducah a stage of about AIS feet
will be reached, while at Cairo a stage
OF between sos and 81 feet will prob
ably be reached by Saturday night.
The Tennessee will change but little
unless heavy rains set in again.
The Mississippi, from Chester south
ward, will continue to rise. In the
Memphis district the rise has contin-
ued at an increased rate, as indicated
in the special bulletin of the 18th. The
stage at Memphis this evening was
S5.S feet, rise Of 0.5 foot since We'd
nesday evening, while at Helena
Thursday morning it was 45.3 feet, a
rise of OF foot. A stage of about 81
feet is indicated at Memphis during
Friday night or Saturday, and the
highest stage will be reached about
Wednesday, March IS. AT Helena the
maximum stage will be in the neigh
borhood of 40 feet all estimates being
based upon the assumption that the
levees will remain intact. The only
trouble thus far reported has been at
charlottesville, Mo-, where the levee is
still in danger.
Below Helena the rise will continue
steadily. and there is no present indi-
cation that revision of previous es-
Inmates will be necessary The Red
and the Ouachita rivers will also con-
tinue to rise for the next six or seven
days, with stages of 81 and 40 feet.
respectively, at Alexandria and Mon
roe, three or four feet above the dam

lions continue for 21-foot stage.

More water Coming,

Little Rock, Ark, March 12.-Specials
from towns of the state in the interior
show that there is a great rush of
waters yet to come through the over
flowed beds, and that in many places
there will be great loss of property
At Garland City the Red river is s
miles wide and rising. 1t is rising
rapidly at Fulton and it is thought
there will be another rise in this
stream as great as that of 1892.
Reports from Arkansas City are to
the effect that the levees there are
holding well, but there is apprehension
at the stage of the Mississippi river.
The Arkansas river here is above the
danger line, but is stationary tonight

er is provision prohibiting in explicit
terms further reduction than 20 per
cent. in the duty on Cuban sugar ship
ped into the United States, and also
prohibiting reductions in the rates of
sugar coming into the United States
from other countries.
The amendment providing for the
submission of the Cuban treaty to the
House was offered by Senator Bacon.
AL the last session of Congress the
committee refused to attach it to the
treaty, but when it was presented to-
day, it was accepted after very little
discussion. The principle reason for its
acceptance was that members of the
House have urged in strong terms the
constitutional right of that body to
pass upon all reciprocity treaties be-
cause of their effect upon the reve-
nues. Senator Bacon strongly support
ed this view, but other members of the
committee generally took the position
that the action of the House was not
necessary to render the treaty of bind
ing effect.
No formal vote was taken upon the
amendment, it being accepted by unan-
imOuS consent.
Senator Bacon remarked that the
amendment would very materially ia
cilitate the ratification of the treaty.
The committee recommends that the
amendment be added at the end of the
treaty. Its exact language is as fol-
lows:
This treaty shall not take effect
until the same shall have been APP
proved by the congress"
The Democratic senators as a rule
express themselves as satisfied to al
low the Cuban treaty to be acted upon
with the amendment for submission
to the House added. They say that
this addition meets their demands on
the question of principle, and that if
there is any further opposition it will
come from individual senators and not
from the Democrats as a whole. A
leading Democratic senator to-day,
after the treaty, as amended, had been
reported to the Senate, said:
I'VE shall not now stand in the way
of the treaty, and it is my opinion that
it will be ratified if a quorum can be
maintained"

Record-Breaking Stage of Water
Is still Predicted.
Memphis, Tenn, March 12-There is
little change in the river situation to-
night, and although the rise to-day has
been slight, the situation is still con-
s1dered grave, and a stage of more
than IS feet is still expected. The guage
tonight shows 1878 and rising, an ad-
vance of two-tenths since midnight
last night
Dispatches from Charlottesville saw
that the situation there is practically
unchanged and that the entertainments

are from private individuals. and if
the government engineers have receiv-
ed adVices from Charlottesville to-day,
they have not made them public.
Capt. Lucas, United States engineer

tricts, left to-day for Helena, Ark, to
personally inspect conditions in the

The Robt. z. Lee left to-day for the
South, carrying supplies and men for
the levee engineers at Cat Island,
where the rush of the waters through
the seVenteen-mile gap in the levees
is causing uneasiness.
The James Lee left for the North
with men and supplies for the men
at Pecan Point, where strengthening is
in progress on the entertainments.
No news has been received from the
area in Mississippi country, Arkansas,
which was reported flooded yesterday
by water having percolated through
the embellishments.
The engineers here say that the crest
OF the rise will probably reach Mem
phis Sunday, unless there are further
heavy rains generally over the area
drained by the tributaries of the Mis-
slssippi in the meantime. They pre-
dict a record-breaking stage of water
on account of the fact that the leyees
are all holding against the flood. Dur
ing the high water of 1893 the river
at Memphis was forty miles broad,
and there were no entertainments on

women, Mrs. G. b. Evans and Mrs. H.
S. Meyers, took the places of their
husbands, non-union men, to-day and

sympathizers followed one wagon
driven by a non-union man, and when
a few stones were thrown, he willing

places, the business of the trasfer COM

An injunction was granted to the
Kansas City Transfer Company
against the Team Drivers Internation-
al Union No. 459, and the sympathizers
of the strike, by Judge John F. Phil

Court. The action was brought on the
ground that the complaiTtants are gov
eminent cartmen, being employed by
the government in transporting bond
ed bonds.
The order restraints the defendants
from participating in the strike, from
interfering with or intimidation of the
companys drivers; from picketing or
patrolling the sidewalks adjacent to

Levees are Threatened.

Vicksburg, Miss, March 12.-Dis-

there are said to be many weak places

points large forces of men and great
quantities of material are concentrat-

CUBA Is ANXIOUS.
If Amendment Is Adopted, Wants
an Extra Session.

Havana, March 1.-THE publication
of Washington dispatches regarding
the amendments to the reciprocity
treaty by the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee has caused a renewal of ap-
prehension among business men that
the treaty may remain unsettled until
the next session of the United States
Congress. The merchants and bankers
here hope that if the amendment re-
curing the approval of the House is
adopted, President Roosevelt will call
q special session of the House to settle
the matter.
The uncertainty regarding the rates
of duties has seriously hampered both
the export and import trade for sew
eral months. The merchants, although
anxious for it's ratification now, de-
clare that even the rejection of the
treaty is preferable to a further long
period of uncertainty.
