Kidney diseases cause more deaths than any other human affliction. This is because they como on so silently, and are. therefore. neglected.
 When the kidneys are we'll. they re- move from the body every day nearly one ounce of uric acid and other pois- . onous waste.
 When the kidneys are sick. this poll son is carried by the blood to every part of the body. It causes rheuma = tism. gout. neuralgia. sciatica, gravel. stone in the kidneys, heart disease, in- digestion. diabetes and Bright's Dis case.
 Doan's Kidney Pills act promptly and give complete relief. because their influence is exerted directly upon the dfseased tissues. This medicine has been curing sick kicneys for seventy two years.

Bread is going to follow meat in the
upward fight of prices or else the
loaves will be made smaller.
Bakers say the price of -four has

barrel higher than it was and that
ut So a barrel they cannot get their
money out of it and give the average

Talk of raising the price of bread,

are discussing cutting an ounce or two
off the weight and evening up matters
in that way.
Vegetables are falling in line also,
the recent heavy rains having had a
bad effect on the crops. Potatoes are

PUBLIC OPINION
Editor Evening News:

Editor Evening News:
Your editorial in FIiasy's paper under
the caption Trains at Station was
simply rt markabl and, ,lliie you haye
from time to time put oar columns to
the same good use regarding tho welfare
of the railway passengers to add from
this city, J. for one think this ar
ticle in last Friday 5 paper the best and
most pointed that / have ever sccn
touching on this vital issue. You were
very legitimate in your dealing with both
companies, and while you did not place
the blame directly Oh either company, it
is beyond Ieprcach that the Incoming
train of the Central would have been tho
slaughter but for The quick action Of u
fellow passenger in warning the unheeded
gentleman of the silently approaching
ieath horse, and wou d have had to stand
the blame had it claimed its victim.
If economy is wealth then these two
railroad companies should certainly DO
L~sstato-s, for the two are operating trains
IN one line. and rece wing and discharg-
ng passengers from a single station. 1t
must be an eyesore for a. pcrto on who Wis
% this city and learns its extremely
eprcdat oas to life III preference to a few
ollars for Il railroad monopoly. There
: no city on the map the size Of This but
what has two sides 10 its railroad station,
50 that there is no possible chance for 4
rain coming in the opposite direction in
lferirg with passengers going the other
way. (lh 10 Staten Island rapid transit is
IN examp'c.)
These W companies have separate
platforms at other places where their
patrons are not near so numerous as
, re, with an iiou fence between the rails
Of either track, SO why are lot the same
preventions operated in this city? Prob
ably they had not given it a thought, but
a glimpse by them at last Fliday's ed
itorial should open their eyes.
Goodness knows it is bad enough for
their trains to 80 speeding through the
city's streets with a little rail between
them aud pedestrians, let alone operating
a single station and coaxing death.
The murder of Of ono person through
this carelcssuess should serve them APP

SULTAN HAS YIELDED
European Squadron Sails
From Smyrna.
AMERICAN DEMANDS GRANTEE
Positive Pledges Given That There
Shall BE No Discrimination
Against Our Schools In
Turkey.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. 15.-The
issues between Turkey and the United
States have been arranged to the salts
terms of the settlement have not yet
been given out.
The fleet which was expected to ar.
rive at Smyrna on the morning OF
Thursday, the 18th, did not reach port
until the 10Th. On Thursday after
the arrival of the feet the sultan sent
one of his private secretaries to see
Mr.. Leishman and. submit the reply Of
his majesty. giving assurance that no
discrimination shall be made between
American schools and those. of other
n%ationallties and incidentally Offering
an indemnity i'll the amount claimed,
5000 pounds Turkish, to an American
citizen, Mrs. Lane, as the price of
property owned by her.
The main object, which was to OBJ
tain from the sultan a positive pledge
of the most favored nation treatment
for our schools in Turkey, having thus
been accomplished, the presence of the
feet is no longer necessary, and orders
have been given for its withdrawal.
Mr.. Leishman was accordingly i'll
structed to secure without uelay such
a formulation OF his majesty's pledge
as will secure for our educational es-
Establishments perfect equality of rights
with those which France and other ma
lions enjoy under conditions not less
favorable than those which France OBJ
tanned by the agreement of Mytelene
in 1901, which demand has been com.
piled with.
The indemnity to be paid to Mrs.
Lane closes, it is believed, the only
pccuniary claim pending against the
Turkish government.
The United States war vessels now
at Smyrna under command of Rear
Admiral Jewell are the Cleveland, the
Olympia and the Baltimore. They will
leave Smyrna today for Gibraltar. The
ships comprise what is known as the
American European squadron and viii
continue their cruise in European wa,
ter for some time.
