accutely the misfortune that befell
the body of A. T. Stewart, which
was taken from its grave and held
for ransom in the sum of 5000, 900.
The misery millionaire did not
like to think that such a fate might
come to his dead body, to be stolen
from the grave where it was en-
joying its solitary vacation, and
hawked about as if it were a COM

coffin, heavy as that in which
Alaric was buried in the bed Of the

some S22, 900. 1t must have been
like wormwood, the thought that
he could, were it not for a sense
less prejudice, have had his body
cremated for a trifing sum, and
secured it forever from the hand
of ghoul or robber.
Consider these two graves-the

of Texas, and that of the miser-

sarcophagus locking his body and
eventually his dust secure from

What different lessons they teach!
Russell Sage did not intend to
have his grave send forth a lesson

acter, and carries into the future
the unbroken lesson of his life.

THE STORY OF
TWO GRAVES
Dying Requests of Russell Sage
and Governor hogg.
One Wanted Burglar Proof, Steel Sar.
cophagus, and One Wanted a Pecan
and a Walnut Tree Planted
at His Grave.

Two men, each of considerable
prominence in this world, died re-
Gently and each did a characteristic
thing Immediately before his death,
and yet the world would not have
supposed that either would have
done just the thing he did. The
men were Governor Hogg of Texas
and Russell Sage. And the char
actelistic and yet unexpected
things they did were these: The
Texas governor directed that a
pecan tree be planted at the head
of his grave and a walnut tree at
the foot; and Russell Sage directed
that his body be buried in a steel
casket weighing three tons and
burglar-proof, locked, sealed and
consigned to eternity.
The world looked with expect
ancy and hope and confidence
confidence in the death bed virtue
of terror-stricken humanity-for
some great benefaction to be dis
closed by the will of Russell Sage,
the millionaire miser, the poorest
rich man in all history. 1t was
disappointed, not so much in its
expectations as in its charitable
estimate of the man himself. In
stead of such a bequest, we have
the heavy steel coffin that is to
guard his corpse from the hand of
ghouls.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their UnCeasing Work Keeps Us Strong
And Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every
three minutes. The kidneys filter
the blood. They work night and
day. When healthy they remove
about 500 grains of impure matter
daily, when unhealthy some part
of this IMPURE matter is left in the
blood. This brings on many
diseases and symptoms-pain in
the back, headache, nervousness,
hot, dry skin, rheumatism, govt,
gravel, disorders of the eyesight
and hearing, dizziness, irregular
heart, debility, drowsiness, dropsy,
deposits in the urine, etc. But if
you keep the filters right you will
have no trouble with your kidneys.
@. K. Page, real estate and in
surance agent, of Corpus Christi,
Texas, says: My wife thinks a
great deal of Doan's Kidney Pills
and says they relieved the dull ach-
ing pain in her back which had
given her considerable annoyance
for over a year. They also cor
rected the action of the kidney
seSretions which had been rather
irregular. Knowing this to be
fact I have no hesitation in endors-
ing this remedy, and trust it
may be means of helping others
similarly afflicted. "

CHARMS THAT BRING LUCK
Superstitions of Bridge Players
Houses and Seats That Are
Unlucky.

II is now obvious that the portion of
society which takes its gambling seri-

An instance in point is the buying OF
the ankh which, as now sold in Bond
treet in gold and jewels, is extremely
popular, says the London Daily Mail.
The ankh is the sign OF life, and
consequently of good luck striving

MINOT DRAYMAN HIT
BY A q. N. ENGINE

Minot Optic: With FIVE ribs broken
and deep and ugly wound over his
right eye, Matt Poos, we'll known
local drayman, is lying in ward at
the county hospital as the results of
being struck by the engine on passen-
about S o'clock yesterday afternoon.
While Poos' condition is very serious,
owing to his advanced age, still DIR.
S. G. White, the attending physician
states that the injured man has a good
chance to survive the accident.
At the time the accident occurred,
Poos was seated or his dray and was
about to cross the Great Northern
tracks at point just south of Judge
Murray's residence. A complete view
OF the track, looking east, is shut off
by a shed which was recently put up
for the engine crews. - Z .
AS Poos approached the track from
the south light engine came down
the track from the east and being un-
able to view the track and not hearing
any noise, he started to cross the
track as soon as the light engine had
passed. Just as his horses had
reachedt the north side OF the track,
the wagon which Poos was riding on,
was struck by the engine on train No.
S, which was pulling into the depot
at a fair rate of speed.
Poos was thrown from the wagon
and both horses were badly injured,
one receiving such injuries that it was
necessary to shoot the animal. The
other horse was also severely cut in
several places. but it is believed he
will be, saved The injured drayman
was Immediately picked up and con-
veyed to the county hospital, where
DR.. White was called to render medi-
cal assistance. An examination Of
Poos revealed FIVE broken ribs, three
on the right side and two on the left
side and also severe wound over the
right eye. In addition to these in
/ iuries, Poos was also badly bruised.
This morning Poos stated that the ac-
cident was due to his inability to see
