WHY KIDNEY DISEASE
 IS DANGEROUS.
Neglect of the First Warning Symp- toms is the Prime Cause of so Many Deaths from the Dreaded
 Brlght's Disease.
1t is Easily Durable in the Early Stages.

Kidney diseases are so destructive to human life because they do not manifest alarming symptoms until the constitu- ton is seriously weakened and the strength exhausted. Then, too often, the remedies employed by many physi- clans are of indifferent or doubtful value, and the patient rapidly sinks under the disease. The wisest course is to apply a reliable kidney and liver remedy on the fySt abbearance of the symptoms. A little uneasiness in the small of the back, digestive troubles, bowel irregularities and disorder in the urinary organs are matters of small moment in the estima- ton of strong men and women, yet they have a serious meaning. They show clearly that the kidneys are suffering and need help, which must be forth coming at once to prevent serious, per- haps fatal consequences. A few doses of Prickly Ash Bitters at this time would prove of incalculable value in restoring the weakened organs to health. An investment of one dollar in bottle of Prickly Ash Bitters when the disease is yet in the early stage will save hundreds of dollars in doctors bills, besides the suffering that would surely follow should the disease be allowed to fasten itself ir the body. The excellent curative power of Prickly Ash Bitters is not confined to the first stages of kidney disease. It is equally efficacious in severe or chronic cases. Physicians have used it as last resort, in cases that dehed their best efforts, with the most brilliant results, and it has shown its superiority over the many so-called kidney cures, now being loudly advertised, in instances innu- merable.

WHOLE BUNCH OF CROOKS
In the Tolls at Hot Springs After liv- ing Within Block of Mayor
 for Some Time.

Hot Springs, March 20-En- sconced in a cottage on Quapaw avenue, in one of the most ex- elusive residence districts of the city, within a stones throw of Mayor Bedding, the police have uncovered a den of burglars, pickpockets and general crooks, according to the officers, who have been guilty of numerous burglaries and thefts. since the opening of the races at Oaklawn.
 The head of the band has been Tony deherty, of St. Louis, who has twice at least, served terms in jail, according to the police, on pleas of guilty to burglar charges. Red McGinnis, also of St. Louis, is said to be another leader of the band. The others arrested in the raid were Jimmie Lane, of St. Louis, Sam Brown, alias the "Jew Kid" Zap Kiely, Denver; Bert Rives and Harry Arnold, of Burlington, Iowa.
 The raid, which was partici- pated in by the entire detective force of ten officers, followed the arrest of Willie Grace, of Den- yer at Oaklawn Saturday after noon, on charge of picking pockets. He was only youth and was so frightened that he is said to have made a confession, giving discriminating evidence against his companions. He told the detectives of the whereabouts of the rest of the crowd, in a a locality where the police would be least likely to look for them.
 There have been a number of burglaries reported from the im- mediate neighborhood recently as we'll as from other parts of the city, while, since the races began, there have been an unus- ually large number of cases of pocket picking and kindred crimes.
 On the person ot one of the men was found a memorandum giving the description, location and means of access to a house which they evidently proposed to break into.
 The men are in the city hold over, pending an investigation of their records, and develop ments.

HOME MADE CIGARS.
Find Poor Sale-But 2,276,550 Were
 Made in Arkansas in 1905.

The records of the United States internal revenue office show that during the year 1905 there were 2,276,550 cigars man. ufactured in Arkansas, as con- pared with 2,746, 305 in the year previous, a decrease of nearly 5O0,OO0. The tax for selling cigars is s a thousand, which the Government exacts, whether they are the three for a dollar variety or the more frequently used five cent straight. " The revenue collected by the depart ment from the sale of cigars manufactured in Arkansas in 1905 was $6, 728. 50, while in 1904 it was $7,232.30. There are thirty cigar manufactures in the State, of which six are in Little Rock.
 The figures of the internal revenue department do not indi- cate that the cigars made in Ar kansas find a ready sale among the smokers in the State. Nearly all the cigars made in the State sell for five cents each. The home products are all hand made, and are made of as good filters and wrappers as it is pos sible to put in a cheap cigar. For some reason, however, their sale is diminishing instead of in- creasing.
 The thirty cigar manufactures in Arkansas are in marked con trast with the number of estab- lishments of a like character in New York city. In none of the several internal revenue districts of the metropolis of the country is there less than ten times the number of cigar-making factor ies than in the. entire State of Arkansas. -Ex.

lars was reported to have been made at the stock exchange for account of n- terest of the San Francisco trust com panles, which was regarded as further convincing evidence of the relaxation of the strain on the money situation at that point But this development was of less influence on sentiment than it would have been had not the rates for time money and especially for the longer periods shown an advancing tendency With money over the end of the year quoted at 614 to 51h per cent, there Is lack of con fdence in the permanency of ease in money for day to day borrowings.
 The firmness of the loans is indicated rather by lessened offerings than by in- creased demand. There is practically no demand for loans maturing during the usual autumn period of interior demand for currency, preference being that bor- rowers are discinclned to run the risk of having to find new accommodations at that period. aes
 It is expected, however, that after June l there will be cheaper rates for money, especially for call and short time loans Prices were very well maintained today in spite of the light demand. This was largely due to sympathy with one or two stocks which were bid up at different times. Reading was still the principal feature of the week, and late in the day there was a desultory movement In St. Paul, which was associated with favor able view of crop prospects.
 The heavy inroads on Readings net earnings for April as result of the shutdown of the coal mines did not de- tract from the strength of that stock A general dropping tendency had devel- oped, however, when the late movement of St. Paul supplied the sustaining infu-. ence filled by Reading in the early part of the day The late advances were well maintained and the closing was steady and very dull
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value, $2,295,00 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

Gilbert & cIay's Market Letter.

The declining demand for spot cotton abroad was responsible in a large meas ure for the easiness that options dis- played in the earlier session of the Liv- erpool market, although there must have been considerable selling on the part of American interests to bring about the decline of points that options recorded on the close. Spot sales amounted to 5000 bales, points lower.
 The bears had the market firmly In their grip today, and manipulated prices to suit their own interest New York started the decline with a small raid, which appeared so easy of consumnatlng in the eastern market, but likewise here, and the liquidation that had been quietly proceeding was quickened by the dlslodge ment of stop orders.
 Attention was daily becoming more closely eentered on reports from the new crop, heretofore, this has been a fact in a lesser degree, but interest has largely been divided with the prospect of a. more general exhaustion of present day sup plies. However, the close proximity to the, date on which the government will Issue it's first estimate of acreage and condition of the forthcoming crop, eclipses all other news Items concerning the trade, and with it's publication will set at rest the many theories and con tentions momentaiily that have been ad vanced.
 The trade in general expects a high con- dition figure and an increase in acreage somewhat in excess of the majority of es- inmates

Any one could see, or ought to see, with half an eye that 1t is simply game of unloading. The first thing that happened this morning was an estimate on condi- ton of n per cent from the bull leader, which even the bulls themselves ac- knowledged was an insult to the intelli- gence of the trade.
 The next thing was the rumor that the same Header" had sold 5000 bales of cotton

Then the trade wanteA to sell very badly and shorts found no trouble at all in taking profits on good side lines without disturbing the market and put ting prices on themselves.

MAY SHOWED LARGE LOSS

New York May 29.-The cotton market was very active and unsettled today, and fluctuations in the near months were sensationally broader and violent with May at one time showing a net loss of 46 points. Later positions were comparative ly quiet and steady. The close seemed steady at a net decline of to 2s points. Sales for the day were estimated at 35O 600.
 The market opened barely steady at a decline of to 4 points in response to lower cables and favorable weather re- ports. Almost at once after the opening prominent brokers became heavy sellers of the May and July options. These operators were supposed to be working for the local bull clique which has been consistently supporting the market, and which has taken up all cotton so far ten dered on the May options and the moment rumors were circulated that the big bulls were unloading offerings became general. Around 1010 for May, or 21 points net lower, the decline was checked by cover ing but the market rallied only slightly and after the weekly bureau report turned weak again under a renewal of the sell ing by brokers supposed to represent bull leaders. This break carried May down to 19.s s5. July to 10.S2 and August to 10.65 or above 1T to 46 points ner lower, while the new crop held within to 10 points of last nights finals. Toward the close there was covering and renewal of bull support on which prices recovered sew eral points of the loss. Southern spot markets were unchanged to 3-16c lower. The local spot market was 20 points lower. It was reported that few thous- and bales of May cotton were rendered during the day and thls may have aided the decline Wall street firm issued an estimate placing the average condi- ton of the crop at S4.5 per cent, and the increase 9.6 per cent, and this was some thing of an influence in the early trading. report issued by a local bull leader later in the day placed the condition at 76.S per cent
 Receipts at the ports today 15.659 bales, against 16,929 last week and 24010 last year. For the week, estimated 5000 bales, against 75,416 last wek and 123,170 last year. Todays receipts at New Or leans S5OT bales, against 6493 last year. and at Houston 3s7S bales, against 359s last year.

GREAT DULLNESS

Heavy Inroads on Readings Net Earn lngs for April Caused By Strike

 Strength of the Stock.

New York, May 2s.-Lacking yester- days one hour spurt of@cuvity at the opening today's stock market sank to a midsummer dullness of dealings. Abso- iute stagnatlon ruled at times, and the sluggish current of prices was barely per ceptible.
 The interruption of tomorrow's holiday was partly accountable for the extremely ianguid interest in the market. The pay ment of the s5O,0000O0 of Pennsylvania caused no disturbance in the money mar yet as the transaction was largely con cluded by the transfer of bank accounts and the funds remained on deposit with the banks. On Thursday, however, after the holiday interval, preparations will be made for the monthly accounts, and these will be complicated by the payment of subscriptions for new Chicago and Northwestern stock, which will call for some $16 GOO The most important de- yelopment of the day was the transfer by telegraph from San Francisco of nearly s3,000, 600. This is the first substantial evidence of the fulhllment of the gener- ally indulged hope that currency would be remitted to New York immediately from that center when the resumption of banking had demonstrated the super abundance of the provision made for calls from depostors.
