was advised to take some of Doan's
Backache Kidney Pills, and following
the suggestion I went to the HOLSTER
Drug Cos store, Fort street, and got
some of these. Having taken them,
they relieved me straight away, and

News from st. Petersburu,

st. Petersburg, May 27.-1:10 p. m.
The tension in naval circles is very
great. News of the meeting of the
Russian and Japanese fleets is expect
ed hourly. The dispatch from Toxic
to the Associated Press saying 1t was
rumored that the fleets have already
engaged in the straits of Kirea, arous-
ed intense interest at the admiralty,
but nothing confirmatory had been re-
ceived there up to the time of this
dispatch was filed. The majority of
the officers were inclined to doubt the
accuracy of the Toxic report, believ-
ing that Rojestvensky with his fight
ing ships is heading northward for
the eastern part Of Japan.
Others on the contrary consider it
quite likely that Rojestvensky after
passing out into the Pacific, doubled
back through the Luchu islands and
will take the straightest course for
Vladivostok Rjestvensky, they point
out, is d believer in strategy and mys-
tifcation, and his cruise in the peace
may have been not only to avoid the
danger of mines and torpedo attacks
in the shallow waters of the straits of
Formosa, but to drive the Japanese in
to the belief that his objective was
either the Tsugaru of LaProuz straits
while in reality he changed his course
and headed for the straits of Korea
AS a matter of fact, Rojestvensky
seems to have mystifed his own ad
miralty as much as the Japanese.

MrS. alma p0ffS

Frequent backache and distressing
pains, accompanied by offensive dis
charges and generally by irregular
and scanty menstruation indicate dis
placement or nerve degeneration of
the womb and surrounding organs.
The question that troubles women
is how can a woman who has some fe-
male trouble bear healthy children?
Mrs. Anna Potts, of $40 Park Avenue,
Hot Springs, Ark, writes:
My Dear Mrs Pinkham:-
During the early part of my married life
was delicate in health both my husband and
were very anxious for child to bless our
home, but had two miscarriages, and could
not carry child to maturity, A neighbor
who had been cured by Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound advised me to try it.
did so and soon felt that | was growing
stronger, my headaches and backaches left
me, had no more bearing-down pains, and
felt like new woman. Within year
became the mother of a strong, healthy
child, the joy of our home. Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound is certainly q
splendid remedy, and l wish every woman
who wants to become mother would try it !"
Actual sterility in woman is very
rare. If any woman thinks she is ster-
lie, let her try Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and write to Mrs.
Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. Her advice is
free to expectant or would-be mothers.

BUILDING TRADES
WITHDRAW SUPPORT
Striking Teamsters Meet With
Financial Difficulties.
MAY SPREAD TO OTHER CITIES
Largest and Strongest Union In Chi.
caao Withdraws Its Moral and Finan,
cial Help from the strikers May
Mean End of Trouble.

Chicago, May 27.-Attention of strik
ers and employers was cantered large
ly today on the effect OF the action oI
the associated bn1iding trades, ac
counted the strongest 45or body i'll
Chicago, and representing IA its mem.
bership upwards of $4,000 Union Work
men. This body having Withdrawn
both moral and financial support from
the teamsters cause, the first effect
will be TO cut off nearly 81 1000 a week
from the strikers funds. The subse-
quent effect is problematical, many
thinking it means the first break in
the struggle, the beginning of the end,
In any event, it seems to check the
peril to the whole building industry OF
the city-a situation which had be
come one of the great problems of the
strike. Further, this withdrawal OF
financial support is particularly try
ing at time when the finances are a
serious problem. The response to
the request to for contributions from
the country at large has, it is al.
legged, not been up TO expectation, and
with a daily expense of $4,000, finan.
cial stringency may be the rock on
which the strike will be wrecked.
AS a result of the teamsters' strike
a new low record in the price of coal
as compared with previous periods OF
depression during the past ten years
has been established. This applies
to the coal situation generally in the
western trade, according to the Black
Diamond. The retail trade in anthra.
cite in Chicago is feeling the effects Of
the teamsters' strike to a greater ex
tent than was expected, due to the
duration of the industrial troubles.
Extraordinary efforts are being
business. Long time credits are being
given by dealers to induce consumers
to take in coal and in some cases the
prices are below those which the re
tailers should have obtained for his
product in April. These Irregularities
will further complicate the situation
unless the strike is ended shortly and
consumers begin to take an interest
in their future requirements.
The spread of the strike of the ex-
press drivers to other cities is a new
element in the situation. The trip of
business agent James Barry of the ex-
press drivers to New York has caused
the idea to be given credence. Some
of the labor leaders say that Barry's
trip to New York will be for the pur-
pose of obtaining funds for the strik-
ing men in Chicago. Fifty picked men
from the express drivers have been dir
ected by the union to go to so large
cities of the country and a demand
may be made by every express wagon
mems local that the Chicago men be
reinstated or general strike directed
against all express companies.

Toxic, May 27.-4:30 p. m.-Vice
Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet has been
sighted off Tsu islands, in the strait
Of Korea
The sighting of Admiral Rojestven-
sky's fleet off Tsu islands would seem
to indicate that the Russian com
mander has determined to take the
boldest course and instead of skirting
Japan direct through the sea of Japan
by the Sugaru or LaPerouse straits to
push direct through the straits of Ko
rea and try to reach VladiVostOk
which which is about $40 miles from
the Tsu islands. That he will be able
to do SO without at least being har
rassed by the Japanese seems improb-
BILE, and the report circulated at Toxic
today that the two fleets have en-
gagged in the straits of Korea may
turn out correct
There is a possibility, of course, that
Rojestvensky may have so far deceiv-
ed Admiral Togo that the latter is
still at the base he established in the
north of the island of Formosa, in
which case a general engagement may
not take place before the Russians
reach Vladiyostok 1t is also posi-
Bile that the Russian vessels sighted in
the straits of Korea only form a por-
ton of the Russian fleet

probable that Rojestvensky has de-

his main fighting force. Whether it is
his intention to force Togo to accept
