The Preachers Evidence.

Roland; ILL.,, June 27-Diabetes has
so long been looked upon as an in
durable form of kidney disease that
sure cure for it must rank as one of
the most valuable medical discoveries
of the age. And every day brings
forth fresh evidence that Dodd's Kid
ney Pills will cure diabetes In
portant evidence in their favor is Civ
en- by Rev. Thos. P. Norman, the we'll
known Baptist minister here. Mr..
Norman says:
Il had all the symptoms of bad
case of diabetes and received so much
benefit from the use of Dodd'ss KID
ley Pills tcat l e eerfuly Recommend
them to anyone suffering from that
dread disease. : Dodd's Kidney Pills
will ctire the worst form of diabetes"
Dodd's Kidney Pills always cure
diabetes, one of the final stages of
kidney disease. All the earlier stages
from backache to. rheumatism are
naturally much more easily cured by
the same remedy.

CHANGES IN CABINET
Paul Merton OF The Santa fe Accepts
the Hawai- Portfolio.
AETGALF SU(e :EDS cORTELYOu.
The Changes to Take Place on July I,
The beginning of the Fiscal Year.
Morton DID Ne: pcsirS to Quit
railroad Management.

Washington, June PA sweeping
change in the cabinet of President
Roosevelt is announced officially at
the white house. The announcement
is as follows:
"The following cabinet appoint
ments are announced: William H.
Moody of Massachusetts, attorney gen.
eral; Paul Morton of Illinois, secre-
tary of the navy; Victor H. Metcalf,
of California, secretary of commerce
and labor. The resignation of Secre-
tary Cortelyou and Attorney General
Knox have been accepted to take ef-
feet July l.
For two weeks or more it has been
known that these changes were i'm
pending. When Secretary Cortelyou
was designated by President Roosevelt
to be his campaign manager, it was
certain that he would retire from the
cabinet.
A week ago Attorney General Knox
formally announced that he waufd
retire from the department of Justice,
probably at the end of the fiscal year.
1t was understood at the same time
that Secretary Moody would succeed
IIr. Knox as attorney general.
In pursuit of his purpose to secure
thoroughly able and congenia1 man,
President Roosevelt rendered the ap-
pointment to Paul Morton, first vice
president of the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe railroad. Mr.. Morton is a
personal friend of the president of
many years standing. He is a son
of the late j. Sterling Morton, of Ne
braska, secretary Of agriculture in
President, Cleveland's last administra-
ton.
Mr.. Morton has had experience in
Washington, having been here with
his father. --a
Since President Roosevelt has been
in the white house he has made more
than one effort to induce Mr.. Morton
to accept a position in his admins
tration. Feeling that his life work in
the railroad business, in which he
has achieved success, might be i'm
paired by his acceptance of an official
position in the government, he uni
formly has declined all such proffers.
In consequence with this feeling he
declined the proffer of the port folio
of the navy.
He was requested by the presi-
dent to consider his defamation. He
took dinner at the white house and
the whole subject was considered after
Mr.. Morton had consulted with his per-
sonal and business friends and asso-
ciates. At the conclusion of the con-
ference, Mr.. Morton told the presi-
dent he would accept the position in
the cabinet.

age of foreigners in the Russian navy
has been enormous. The sailors are
in very few cases genuine Russians,
hut are for the most part made up of
Swedes, Courlanders, Firms, Greeks

be said that the foreigners have not
only made but are still maintaining
the Russian navy. The reason for
this is because the Russians are not
