One in Every
Seven.

More people are troubled with
weak kidneys than any other
form of disease. Doctors say
that one person in every seven is
thus afflicted.
The kidneys are the sewers of
the system. In the summer they
are subjected to the greatest
strain-have the most work to do.
When they are unsound the waste
matter which they should carry
off remains in the body to shatter
the health, dull the brain and
weaken the nerves.
There never was but one way
by which the kidneys could be
kept in good working order-that
is by the use of Warmers Safe

West Texas and the Sabine division
of the Texas and New Orleans is off
for the present. The ofieial announces
ment of the purchase OF half the stock
in the roads named has been made by
the Rock Island in its annual report,
hence the situation is not thoroughly
understood. It is the belief among
railroad officials that the Rock Island
will build to the gulf awaiting the com
pletion of the Lott road and of the
Frisco's line to a connection with the
San Antonio and Arkansas Pass when
that property will be taken over. The
Rock Island-Frisco would thus have
entrance into Houston and could build
into Galveston much more cheap1y than
under the first plan proposed There
would also be no question of joint own
ership with a competing system.

Tries a Ticket Broker to See Whether
License Shall Be Revoked.
St Louis, Mo. June 3.-The trial of
Robert H. McClusky, a ticket broker
at 1897 Market street. who was
charged by Burlington route officials
with selling nonTansferrable worlds
fair excursion tickets, took place in
Mayor Wells private office.
Under an ordinance passed at the
last session of the municipal assembly
the mayor is empowered to revoke the
license of a broker violating any of its
tenets Attorney Dorsey A. Jamison
represented McClusky and z. S. and
Douglas Robert represented the rail
road company. The latter presented
the tickets as evidence.
McClusky made no defense. He
took the stand that the mayor had no
authority to try the case and attacked
the constitutIonality of the ordi-
nance. The case was taken under adj
visement by Mayor Wells. A decision
will be rendered after the mayor has
submitted the case to proper legal au-
thorities, who will outline his course.

HELPS OUT KANSAS CITY.
Santa Fe Cuts the Passenger Rates to
That City.

4ndb wy
Kansas City, No, June 3.-One of the
many benefits the merchants of Kansas
City will derive rom the city ordinance
recently passed governing the sale of
tickets by scalpers here will be the grant
ing of cheap rates to this city by the San
ia Fe during the worlds fair in St. Louis
at the same time coach excursions are in
effect to that city All the roads will put
in coach excursions to St Louis for the
round trip at intervals during the fair,
with five and ten day limits, and the San
ia F'e has served notice that it will make
these same rates, with the privilege of
going to St. Louis or stopping in this city
The regular order of granting these cheap
rates called for the tickets to be validated
from the return at St. Louis, but the San
ia F'e will allow the holders of its tickets
on the coach excursion dates to stop here
and will validate them for return without
the holder having to go TO the worlds
fair.
This will no doubt bring many people
from Oklahoma, Colorado and Kansas to
this city, they can come here and re-
turn home at much cheaper rates than
are ordinarily in effect For instance, the
rate from Oklahoma City to Kansas City
for one way is something over So while
on these coach excursion dates round
trip ticket will be sold to St. Louis with
privilege of stopping here and returning
home without going to the fair for a lit
tie less than S11 for the round trip.
From points in Oklahoma the coach ex-
cursion rates will be in effect June and
%, and from Kansas and Colorado points
the low rate round trip tickets will be on
sale every Monday in June. 1t is very
probable that the Santa F'e will continue
this plan all during the fair at St. Louis.
