kodol does for the stomach that which
it is unable to do for itself, even when
but slightly disordered or overloaded.
Kodol supplies the natural juices of
digestion and does the work of the
stomach, relaxing the nervous tension
while the inflamed muscles of that organ
are allowed to rest and heal. kodol
digests what you eat and enables the
stomach and digestive organs to trans
form all food into rich, red blood.

placed at under from $5,000,000 to

necessary to prevent an epidemic of

the river is four miles wide, extending
on the Illinois side to the Mobile and
Ohio tracks, which alone serve as q

Mysterious Double Drowning in Jack
son Park, Chicago.

Chicago, June 5.-Jesse Miller and
young woman as yet, unidentified,
but believed to have been student
at the University Of Chicago, were
drowned in the lagoon at Jackson
park. Whether the double drowning
was suicide or not the police have
not been able to learn. In mem
orandum book in the clothing of the
dead man was the following:
"If anything happens to me notify
ira Miller or Sophie Case, 1886 M

that Miller was student in the
school of medicine of the University
of Chicago and the young woman who
was with him is supposed to have
been his sister, Grace Miller, who
had come from Lincoln to keep house
for her brother. The drowning is now
supposed to have been the result Of
an accident.

BENEFIT AMERICAN SHIPS.
Senator Elkins Will Reintroduce a
Bill for That Purpose.

Paris, June 5.--senator Elkins Of
West Virginia and Mrs. Elkins have
arrived here from New York and will
stay in Paris and at Nauheim for
some time.
The senator says he intends to re-
Introduce next session a bill reducing
by 10 per cent the duties on goods
brought to the United States in Ameri-
can ships, or increasing by 10 per cent
the duties on goods brought in for
eign ships. He expects the measure
will have strong support as a result
of the failure of the shipping bill. Mr..
Elkins says the proposed measure is
not open to the same objections as
the shipping bill, as it will develop
American shipping without the ex-
penditure of a cent, large or small
ships receiving the same benefits.
