John L. Sullivan, and Pro
baby William ]. Bryan, to
be at State Fair.

Columbia State: John l. Sui
ivan, one time heavy weight
champion Of the world and now
a retired wri er and authority on
pugilistic events, is coming to
Columbia. Secretary Love of
the State Fair society closed Il
contract with the big Irishman
yesterday and while there is no
forfeit placed in case he should
not appear, John l.. writes that
he will certainly be here.
Secretary Love was asked yes
terday about the arrangements
made for the coming of William
J. Bryan. Before it was decided
at the meeting of the fair society
at Clemson College to invite the
distinguished orator here he had
learned that Mr.. Bryan was in
charge Of syndicate and that it
was necessary to guarantee him
$1,000 should he speak here.
There would be no difficulty
in getting him and it would not
be necessary to send a committee
to New York for him if the mon
ey was produced. One of the
members of the society suggested
that if the society waited two
years Mr.. Bryan would probably
come here as candidate for
president. However, Mr.. Bryan
will be invited here, not as an
employe of syndicate, but as a
man popular in South Carolina
and who has always been Loyalty
supported by the people of the
State.

Lewiston Womsn Ars Finding Relief
It does seem that women have more
than a fair share of the aches and
pains that afIiict humanity; they must
keep up" must attend to duties in
spite Of constantly aching backs, or
headaches, dizzy spells, bearing down
pains; they must stoop over. when to
stoop means torture. They must
walk and bend and work with racking
pains and many aches from kidney
Ills. Kidneys cause more suffering
than any other organ of the body.
Keep the kidneys well and health is
easily maintained.
Mrs F. J. Pearce, living half a
mile east Of La Grande. Ore, says:
'Doan's Kidney. Pills which used
two or three years ago, proved Of in
estimable benefit to me In relieving
backache and kidney trouble Of five
or six years standing. Kidney disor-
der was the most troublesome al
though my back panied considerable.
The kidney secretions were irregular
in action. scalded and were highly
colored and contained a dark sedi-
ment Homework was a burden as l
, was so tired and restless. Doans
Kidney Pills were recommended to me
and my husband procured box for
me. Its use relieved me from the
first. and soon the bad condition OF
the kidneys was regulated and the
backache was removed. Since making
statement of my case at that time
for publication, have had slight re-
currences Of the backache brought on
by colds or overexertion. but few
doses of Doan's Kidney Pills have
never failed to bring positive relief

anything"

For SEEMING Fish.

Game and Fish Warden j. w.
Lemon arrested Gottfried Boyer
and son and Henry Mier on the
Cheyenne Bottoms last Friday
while seining fish out of Long lake.
He brought them to town and
they were tried the same evening
before Justice Prindle. They
were given minimum fines, which
with costs amounted to SIS each
or $54 for the three which they
paid.
Section 5 Of the fish and game
law under which the men were
convicted reads as follows: II
shall be unlawful for any person
to catch, take, or attempt to take,
from any lake, pond, river, creek,
stream or other waters within OF
bordering on this state, any fish
by any means or in any manner
except by rod and line and fish
hook, or hand line or set line. %

and proceeded tC proceed. They
had a great game, the town boys
winning the contest by six points,
playing eight games of pitch at
two tables and five games of whist
at two. Those who participated
in the games for the south
siders we're r. A. BidIeman, Mrs.

that the laGles on the south side

is feebly expressing it. The en-

beer A FOOD PRODUCT.
A Washington Official Says Il Aids
Work Of Temperance.

Washington, Feb. 8. That beer
is a food product and that it is
fast coming to be classed with the
least harmful beverages, is claim
now receiving the close attention
of the government experts con
nected with the department of
agriculture. The department. of
agriculture is, and has been for
some time, pursuing an investi-
cation of the nature, effects and
value Of beer.
Doctor W. II. Wiley, chief of
the bureau Of chemistry, of the
department of agriculture, is es-
pecialIy interested in the subject,
having referred to it frequently
in lectures. Doctor Wiley.is not
yet ready to make any statement
or report on the question as to
whether beer is a food product.
Twill say this much" he said
today, that the use of beer and
wines aids in the work of temper
ance. To illustrate, there is not
near SO much intemperance in
Germany, where wines and beer
are used to such great extent, as
there is in Scotland, where spirit
uous liquors are principal used"
