arriving at a Verdict.

Kushequa, Pa, July 10.-(SpeciaD-
In this section of Pennsylvania there
is a growing belief that for such Kid
ney Diseases as rheumatism and
Lame Back there is only one sure
cure and that is Dodds Kidney Pills.
This belief grows from such cases as
that Of Mrs. NJ. l.. Dawson of this
place. She tells the story herself as
follows:
Il have suffered from Rheumatism
for thirty years and find that Dodd's
Kidney Pills have done me more good
than any medicine l have ever taken.
was also bothered with Lame Back
and l can only say that my back hasn't
bothered me since l took Dodd's Kid
ney Pills"
Considering that Mrs. Dawson only
took two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills,
the result would be considered wonder
full II it. we're not that others are re-
porting similar results daily. Kushe-
qua is fast arriving at verdict that
''Dodd's Kidney Pills are the one sure
cure for Rheumatism"

Japanese In Sakhalin.

Toxic. July 1.-THE announcement
of the landing Of Japanese force at
Sakhalin island and the occupation OF
Karsakovsk. followed by the northern
fight of the garrison, has been re-
ceived with great satisfaction by the
Japanese. The landing of the army at
Sakhalin marks the first entry of the
Japanese upon Russian territory
proper.
The Japanese have expressed them
selves pleased to be again in posses
sion of the island. declaring that they
have long felt that the bargain under
which they relinQuished the place
forty years ago was unsatisfactory.
The Japanese express the belief that
they will speedily control the entire
island, as they regard the garrison
there as being incapable of serious re-
sistance and are confident that 1t will
certainly be captured.

For Plain Attire.

The best thing that was said in any
pulpit in the United States yesterday
was uttered by parson in Des Moines,
Iowa. Rev. DR.. Mcconnell declared
that the decadence of church-going was
because attendants-especia at Pro
testant churChes-wore the most ex-
pensive clothes they possessed. This
had the effect of keeping away the
poor, plainly attired people. In max.
ing the usual announcements for future
services this long-headed parson said:
please note that all people attending
services here are requested to wear
plain and inexpensive clothing in or
der that no one, however humble, may
be embarrassed" This man is on the
right track. Dress is the barrier be.
tween church attendance and the
poorer classes. OF course, it is not ex-
pected that man will go to the house
o. worship in his overalls. 1t is to be
hoped he wouldn't sit down to dinner
in such garb-certaiply not if he loves
and respects his wife, who cooks the
meal.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

bits, ranchman few miles south OF
Meeker, Colorado, which recites that
one of the greatest and fiercest battles
that he ever saw took place on his
ranch on Monday between huge rat
tlesnake and buck deer. The battle
continued increasingly and fiercely for
half an hour and finally resulted In
the rattler being killed.
Mr.. Tibbits states that while he was
standing in his doorway on Monday
morning watching large buck deer
which had been wandering around his
ranch for few days, he was surprised
to see the deer rear on his hind legs
and engage in a struggle with some
thing which was wound around it's
legs. Rushing near to where the deer
was standing, the ranchman was
startled to see a huge rattler, meas
uring easily six feet, wound around
the legs of the buck. Climbing a tree
near by. Mr.. Tibbits watched the bat
tie for over half an hour. 1t was
about an even struggle, but finally
the buck succeeded in extricating him
self and dashed the snake against q
rock. killing it.-Denver News.

Cody Drops Divorce Suit.

Omaha, July lin cablegram to
his foster brother and business man
ager, DIR. d. Frank Powell (White
Beaver) of Cody, Wyoming, received
here yesterday, Col. w. F. Cody (Buf
falo Bid requests that steps be taken
Immediately TO dismiss the appeal in
his suit for divorce.
Colonel Cody dismisses the appeal"
said DIR. Powell, ''at the earnest request
of his only living child, the wife of
Lieut.. Clarence Armstrong Stott of
Fort Thomas. Georgia. He does it to
please her, and to please her only"
1t is well known to their friends that
no reconciliation has been effected be-
tween the colonel and Mrs. Cody and
that they will not live together again as
husband and wife. The dismissal of the
appeal in the divorce suit is not the
result of any change in their relations,
but is the result of the efforts Mrs.
Stott has made to bring her parents
together. Before Colonel Cody's eldest
daughter, Arta, died last year she
pleaded with him not to begin divorce
proceedings, and after the petition
had been filed she begged him to dis
miss the suit. Colonel Cody was deeply
moved, his friends say, by the appeal
of his facorte child, but he was deter
mined to get divorce if possible and
prosecute the suit. 1t is said that since
then he often has alluded to his daugh-
ter's dying request with much feeling
and they suspect that he has more
than once regretted on her account
that he filed the divorce suit.

Supreme Court Order Partly obeyed in
Denver-Rehearing In the
Case Is Denied,


Denver, July 11.-Following is the
action of the Supreme Court of Colo
RADIO in the controversy over the Den
yer county Offices:
Denied petition of the ousted Demo
cratic county officials for a rehearing.
Issued an order declaring them
usurpers and not legally entitled to act
as county officers.
Declared that Charles w. Badgley is
treasurer of the city and county of
Denver, and that Christopher C. Grid
is the assessor for the city and county
of Denver.
Modified its original order so as to
enter judgment in the Supreme Court,
thus taking the entire matter out of
the hands of the District Court and
having it's orders served by its own
bailiff.
Order affects all the county officers
with the exception of county Judge, in
whose case a petition for rehearing
was not filed with the others, and the
offices Of county superintendent of
schools, county surveyor and coroner,
over which cases are now pending.
Sheriff Hamilton Armstrong, Asses
and Recorder Robert j. Byrne yester-
day afternoon turned over their Offices
at the court house, upon demand, to
Alexander Nisbet, c. C. Gird and A. G..
Vickery, respectively, their successors
in office, as a result of the Supreme
Court decision.
City and County Treasurer C. S. FL
der turned over the county books, fur
nitllre and rooms to c. w Radpley but
declined to surrender the city tax rolls
and the rooms in the court house where
city business is transacted.
Republican guards were scattered
through every Office in the court house
last night, and guards representing
both parties were placed in the dis
puted treasurer's office.
Treasurer Elder will likely be cited
for contempt by the Supreme Court
this afternoon, and the court will then
be called upon to decide whether the
offices of city and county treasurer are
separate or consolidated offices.

British Bicycle Boom.

The bicycle boom is now in full
swing and Coventry is working over
time to meet the orders flowing in
from all parts Of the world. The fac
tories are completing between 1900
and 1000 machines each day. and yet
the leading firms find it impossible to
meet the demand. The coming of the
cheap cycle has revolutionized the
market.
The incoming of the autimatic tool
and the partial employment of female
labor in the lighter sides of manufac-
ture have helped somewhat to lessen
costs. but the great demand this year
has sent up wages in some branches.
About 5000 men are now employed in
Coventry alone in this one work.

MuTINEERs SURRENDER.
Crew of the kniaz Potemkine Deliver

Kustenji Roumania, July 9.-The
flag of st. Andrew once again foats
over the battleship Potemkine and the

terrors to the Black sea communities
for couple of weeks past.
The formal surrender of the mutin-
GUS crews actually occurred at o'clock
yesterday afternoon after a series OF
discussions and negotiations between
the Roumanian authorities and the
leaders of the mutineers.
The Roumanian officers who boarded
the battleship on her arrival here called
upon the crew to surrender, in which
case they would be treated as foreign
deserters, or else leave the port forth

Russian vessels returned to this port
with the intention of giving themselves
up to a foreign government and the
crews soon announced their acceptance
of the Roumanian terms.
The mutineers wanted to take of the
treasure which was on board the kniaz
Potemkine. but the authorities de-
clined to acquiesce.
The Russians gradually will be con-
veyed to any frontier they may select
and will be liberated, the local officials
having given an understanding to this
effect.
The Roumanian flag has been hoisted
over the Russian war vessels as we'll
