HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with your water and let 1t stand twenty four hours: a sediment or settling indi- cates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys; if it stains the linen 1t is evidence of kidney trouble; too fre- quent desire to pass 1t. or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
 what To Do.
 There is comfort in the Knowledge so often expressed that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root the great kidney remedy. fulfills every wish in curing rheuma- tism. pain in the back. kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it. or bad effects following use of liquor. wine or beer, and overcomes that un- pleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day. and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases If you need a medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists Tn fifty-oent and one-doilar sizes.

Americans To Investigate Municipal
 Ownership Tn United Kingdom.
 New York, May 23--Among the pas sengers who sailed on the Caronia yes terday were ten members of the Ma tional Civic Federation, selected to investigate the English system of pub lic utilities.
 They were Professor Frank J. Good now. Columbia University; Walton Clark. third vice president of the Uni- ted Gas Workers of Philadelphia; Prof. John H. Gray, Northwestern Univer- siay; William J. Clark, foreign manager of the General Electric Company: Pro- lessor Frank Parsons, president of the National Public Ownership League of Boston; Professor John R. Commons. University of wisconsin; F. J. McNutt- ty, president of the International Brotherhood Of Electrical Workers, Washington; Ralph M. Easley. Talcott, Williams and Edward A. Moffett.
 When the committee arrives in Lon- don they will join forces with the five members of the commission already there, of which Melville Ingalls Is chairman. They will make thorough investigation of municipal ownership of gas, water. light and traction sys- tems, as operated in London and other towns In the United Kingdom. One of the members of the commits sion said that they would be assisted by experts In each of the systems, and that probably two months would be devoted to the study of municipal sys- tems abroad.

Substantial Structures Will Succeed
 Burned Frame Business Houses. Dothan, May 23.-(Special. )-Citi- gems of Abbeville who have been in Dothan say that unquestionably the burning of so many wooden stores will be the making of the town. In the re- building, they say, more substantial structures will take the place of the old. One business man of Abbeville was in Dothan searching for a con- tractor before the ashes of his store had fairly cooled, and this seems but indicative of the predominating spirit in the Henry County capital.
 Stone crossings are being put down on the business streets here. at the places most frequently used, and this will prove a convenience that will not fan to be appreciated. for very few thoroughfares in existence can become muddier and more impossible than those of Dothan on a rainy day.
 Dothan Is becoming more and more aroused regarding the question of freight rates, and a committee of three citizens Is now at work soliciting funds with which to employ an agent for the town, whose duty 1t will be to look closely after the interests of the city regarding the railroads. The appoint ment of this committee was made at a largely attended meeting of prominent citizens. called by Mayor Young.
 Work has begun on renoVations to the Dothan National Bank, on the corn CT of Main and Foster streets. The i'm provements, when completed, will cost in the neighborhood of $20.000. The interior finish of the bank will be es- peeially elegant in conception, and the tilIins, frescoing. marble wainscoting. etc. will present an attractive appear ance.

EXTEND CEMETERY
GROUND or oAIxwooD TO BE RE-
 CLAIMED.
Afusfdc Towards Cypress Is To Be Ter raced To Give Additional Lots
 For the Dead.

The problem of additional lots in Oakwood cemetery has been temporari- " solved and, for the present, the city or Montgomery will not purchase ground for new cemetery.
 The problem Is to be solved by re- claiming certain ground north of the new Jewish cemetery, thereby giving forty additional lots measuring fifteen feet by thirty feet.
 Landscape Gardner Pfingsti yester- day began terracing this piece of ground which slopes down In the d. rection of, and overlooks Cypress Pond It will take him some time to complete the work, but forty desirable lots will be added and 1t is expected they will be adequate to meet the demands Tor the present.
 From time to time, 1t Is proposed to continue this work of terracing down the slope to the north of the cemetery, and thus. to, afford a great number of lots. This work, however, becomes more expensive the further the ground is down the incline and 1t is said that there will come a point when 1t will become too expensive to proceed fur ther with the work.
 The matter of purchasing a new cemetery has been agitated in the City Council for some time and at recent meeting. a proposition was submitted for the purchase of $40 acres for about $40.0o0. The proposition was postpon- ed indefinitely.

READJUsTMENT OF COINAGE.

Secretary Taft Wants Money Systena
 Of Philippines More Elastic.
 Washington. May 22.-Senator Lodge today introduced a bill at the request of Secretary Taft for a readjustment of the ratio of the Philippine coinage and for an increase in elasticity of the present system. This in Is accord with the suggestion of the commission CTS in their last annual report, and In brief authorizes the commission. with .~e consent of the President. to change the weight and fineness of the silver peso, and to recoin the existing pesos to make them correspond with the change.
 It appears that there is a pressing necessity for this change in order to prevent the exportation of the peso from the archipelago and also to save the government from loss.
 condition predicted by the com missioners has come to pass and the silver in a peso is now worth more for bullion than the coinage value. Another important feature of the bill ia an authorization of the use of Amer fcan gold coin as a basis for tho paper neso. It Is apparent that the ten mil iian paper pesos in circulation will soon amount to double thatseFum and the government will be obnged to build new value for the storage of silver bullion and to pay high prices for the hullion unless permitted to substitute gold +o the extent of not to exceed sixtv per cent of the paper issued provision is also made for the deposit | of this gold reserve in the United States at good interest

ANARCHY INEVITABLE.

Professor sIiIuksff Believes Csar Is
 Following Louis XVI
 St. Petersburg. May 23.-Professor Milukoff, the spokesman of the Constt- tutional Democrats, according to h thoughtful article published by him in The Rech today. is rather Respondent over the prospect of staying the tide of revolution in the country.
 He basis his pessinism on the con viction that the Government will not yield a full constitutional regime with which, he says, 1t is still possible to calm passions of the people. He re- gards Premier Goremykin and his cab inet as mere puppets. doing the bidding of the powerful influences at court. and believes that Emperor Nicholas is des- tined to throw away the opportunity as Louis XVI did, of transferring the country to a peaceful. parliamentary regime.
 This, the professor considers, to be the Governments last change. Revo- lutionary clements are preaching that parliamentarism is an illusion, and make anarchy and bloody revolution inevitable. Nevertheless the Constftu- tiona1 Democrats will persevere in their attempt to place the country on a solid constitutional basis. and if they fail and disaster follows, the responsi- bility will not be on their shoulders.
 The central committee Of the Consti- tionaI Democrats has completed the drafts of the laws to be introduced in Parliament, including universal suf- frage, irrespective of sex. and equal rights for all citizens; laws guarantee ing immunity of the person and in vioIability of domicile without due pro- cess of law, providing also the guaran- tee of habeas corpus and specifically excluding all exceptions.

Attorney General of Kentucky Alleges
 Printing Graft.

Lexington. Ky. May 23.--In for nal statement given out at Frankfort. Attorney General Hayes charges thai State. printing excess charges to the amount of at least s20.000 are in ques- tion and that he desires any persons about to bid on State printing to know that litigation is likely to follow any State printing contract.
 He speaks particularly of teachers s record grade books. trustees record books, etc. for the year beginning July 1, 1896. declaring that on that contract the books have already been sent out by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction and the bid for the work approved. He says that no more contracts can be let as the State already has a four years supply on hand. He states that the printing was done by Henry Bacon. of Louisville, whose bill was for $24.774 for work which he believes could have been done for $4,00o and adds that suit is now pending against Bacon to re- cover SPA, 900 alleged as an overcharge for work done in 1892.
