WOMAN'S WORST

No woman with unsound kidneys can be healthy. Sick kidneys. in fact. cause the majority of women's troubles
 But there is no need to get down hearted if you suffer constant back ache, weariness, bearing down pains, sick headaches, etc. Doan's Kidney Pills have brought new life and strength to thousands of women affiict- ed in this way.
 It is easy to tell if your kidneys are the cause of your ailments Backache itself is only the aching of the kidneys when congested and inhamed. You feel it in the back because the kidneys are in the small of the back
 Sick headaches dizzy spells, nervous ness. irritability, neuralgia and rheu- matic pains. etc, are caused by the re- tention in the blood of poisons that the kidneys should filter out and pass off in the urine
 Urinary disorders are sure signs of kidney sickness If the urine contains a sediment like bricl-dust. or whitish stringy settings, if passages are too frequent. or scanty. or painful. the kid neys need quick attention.
 Doan's Kidney Pills are made of pure roots and herbs that have a direct healing action on the kidneys They soothe, cleanse and stimulate rouse

 l.. $. Dunbar proprietor of the fruit and cigar store, B North First avenue. says: "Doan's Kidney Pills are Aot a new remedy 10 me. We first used them in our family several years ago when living in Marietta. Ohio. where they are considered household necessity. They are the finest remedy for back ache or any symptoms of irritated or weakened kidneys on the market. Shortly after moving here some three years ago symptoms of recurrence of kidney trouble in our family became evident, and we tired to get Doan's Kidney Pills at several drug stores. They knew nothing about them and we sent Co our druggist. Mir Styer of Ma rietta, for a supply. Noticing them ad- vertised in Phoenix last winter when we required them we procured them at the Brisley Drug Co.'S store They are a necessity in our household par ticularly so when compelled to drink the water in Phoenix. On every Occa- sion when their use is required they have never failed to bring prompt re- lief"

terday morning about o'clock a drunken individual stationed himself on the steps of the National Bank of Arizona and yelled for the police until he had awakened everybody within three blocks. Among those whose slumbers had been disturbed was a deputy sheriff who responded and said

 DEATH OF AN OLD-TIMER- Pedro Guerena, a Mexican, at the time of his death supposed to be the oldest living man in all Arizona, is dead at his home near Globe. The exact age of Guerena is not known but it has been placed between 100 and 11S years. The late Charles Kenyon is said to have known Guerena at Yuma forty years ago and that he was then an old man. Others who have visited the territory knew him in the Mesilla valley in New Mexico in the early '70s and he has been a resident of Globe since 1876. Tn that year he worked as a freighter into Globe, driving a bull team for Morrill, X Ketchum from La Junta. Colo, and Silver City. N. M. He was always good citizen and a leader among the Mexican population of the section in which he lived.

THE CONTROLLING
 OF THf COLORADO
Another Plan tO Restore the Water
 tO Its Proper Channel.

Judge Frank Baxter of Yuma. who has been in town attending the meeting of the democratic territorial commit tee, says it is now believed that a way has been discovered for the controlling Of the Salton sea and of preventing it from getting any bigger. All hope of working on the intake was abandoned some time ago but 1t is now proposed to put in a steel and concrete headgate of sufficient size to admit all the water of the river or practically all of it and to distribute it through the immense canal system of the Imperial company. This headgate will be put in about three miles above the intake north of the international line. It will be put back some distance from the river near a place called Pilot Knob and will be ,n bedrock
 When it is finished a canal will be cut to it and the water will be diverted through it. Another headgate of simi- lar character will be put in at another point and by means of both of them the flow at the intake will be suffi- cieTtly reduced to permit the closing up of that gap in the bank of the river which was made by the most serious mistake ever committed in the history of irrigation. After the intake has
 
 river will be turned back where it be- longs. It is estimated that the one hcadgate at Pilot Knob will cost $15O,- GOO. This means of stopping the flow of the river through the intake was decided upon after the most compe- tent engineers had agreed that there was no other way to stop it.
 There is renewed talk of interna- | tional complications over the turning Of the water loose. That subject was agitated when the river began to cover up the rich lands of the Imperial coun- : try and the persons who were threat eniug 10 make trouble for the Mexican government were the very persons who 1 had secured permission from that gov ernment to turn the water loose after ! they had been denied permission by the ! interior department to fool with the river on this side of the line. Not de- spairing at that refusal they attempted to get bill through congress permit ting them to do what the department would not permit them tOi do. When that failed they went to Mexico

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

When we entered into an arrange ment between ourselves as to the de- livery of ice. we had no other end in view than to reduce the expense in cident upon a double set of delivery teams. resulting in Iessening the price of ice to our customers, as we'll as an economic saving to ourselves. Our motives have been miscOnstrued and our actions misrepresented- We do not wish to be regarded by our patrons as conspirators, or as having entered into an arrangement in restraint of trade to the detriment of the rights of citizens with whom it is our interest to deal
 Legal advisers have assured us that there has been no transgressiOn of the statute in effect; we know there has been none in intention.
 Rather than further pursue our busi- ness with our customers fearing the existence of an arrangement between us unfair to them, we prefer that none longer continue.
 Hence we publish the following notice:
