Lasting Effects.
This Evidence Should Prove Every
Claim Made for Doan's Back
ache Kidney Pills in Honolulu.

Relief from the pains and aches of a
bad back is always welcome to every
backache sufferer: but to cure lame,
weak or aching back is what's wanted.
Cure it SO it will stay cured. 1t can
be done. Here's the strongest evidence
to prove it:
James E. Howard, a resident of Ho-
nolulu, writes: II feel it incumbent
upon me to inform you of the benefit
I have derived from the use of Doan's
Backache Kidney Pills. I had been a
sufferer from backache and kidney
trouble for years, but after using a
few boxes of Doan's Pills, have found
great relief and have had no recur-
renee for at least six months. I am
seventy-two years old, having served
three years during the late Civil War
in the United States where I undoubt-
eddy contracted the kidney disease by
exposure and hardships. I feel very
grateful for the relief I have received,
for I had previously tried various rem
edies without success. You may use
this statement for publication as you
see fit
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are
for sale by all dealers. Price fifty
cents per box, or sent by mail on re-
ceipt of price by the HOLSTER Drug
Co., Honolulu, wholesale agents for the
Hawaiian Islands. Remember the
name Doan's, and take no other.

Greek Boot Black Whose Stand Was
at Holman and Sibley Streets,
Now Maniac.

Pete Silas. the young Greek who for

SibIey and Holman street and who
got into notoriety last spring through
his unusual courtship of a waitress
in the Monon restaurant, has expert
enced a pitiful end to his romance.
Instead OF being ensconced in a cozy

When Pete was first taken to the
poor farm for treatment it was
thought that the outdoor life lie would
lead at that institution would soon
restore him to health. both of mind
and body. He was a quiet patient
and his friends had great hopes of his
recovery.
OF late, however, he has shown signs
of violence and it was finally found
necessary to confine him in a straight

the other inmates harm.

In a burst of confidence he had told one

STILL HIDING
IN WOODS
Desperate Negro Murderer
Successfully Eludes
the Police.
POSSE IS OUT ON TRAIL
Dolton Still Hangs Around Gary
Swearing to Kill Woman Lover
and Her Friend.

The police of Gary and East Chicago,
are hunting the plains between Gary
and Hammond for a desperate armed
man, who will shoot at the slightest
provocation. Somewhere between the
two places, hiding in the underbrush,
the negro, Tom DoIton, one of the most
notorious men the police of this sec
ton ever had to deal with, is keeping
under cover
All night long the search was kept
up in the darkness, but little could
be done until daylight broke this morn
ing. Traces of the two fugitives were
found, and both men were seen by
persons at various points, but in all
cases, the people who caught a glimpse
of the men, waited for nothing more
and took off in another direction.
The negro is wanted for shooting

fellow" a negro companion, over

After the crime, in which he shot one
man and fred several shots at another,
in the negro camps at Gary, yesterday,
the culprit was supposed TO have fed
to Chicago. but it was found that he
had no such intent. The man had a
grudge to work out and he was bound

woman who spurned him and the other
man who thwarted him in his efforts to
kill his rival. He ran into the dense
woods nearby and is now hiding and
awaiting a chance to complete his
vengeance.

TYPHOID EPIDEMIC
MENACES The CITY
Five Cases Reported on
Conkey Avenue Within
Two Blocks.

An epidemic of typhoid fever has
broken out on Conkey avenue and no
less than five cases have been reported
IN families living within two blocks
OF each ethtr. Thres or the patents
are in serious condition while two
are well on the way to recovery. The
worst cases are those of Mrs. Albert
Kline who has been down with the
disease for some time. In the Laklos-
Xxi family a young boy is very serious
ly i'll while the daughter and the little
grandson who stays there have taken
sick and it is probable that their sick
ness will develop into typhoid.
tt is thought that most of the
trouble is caused by a number of
sloughs in the vicinity which are
throwing off hundreds of germs at this
time of the year. Many of the little
boys and girls are in the habit of wad-
ing in them thus exposing themselves
to the danger.
Many of those who have sickness in
the house are complaining of the un-
bearable noise which the new street
car which has just been installed in
the service on the Standard Steel and
East Chicago run.
The trucks being new it makes a
grinding ear splitting noise as it passes
down the street. This will undoubted-
" wear off in time, but at present it
causes great annoyance to those who
wish to have it quiet for the sake of
the sick ones. The eight year old
child of Phillip Breillatt of 402 Con-
key avenue lies at the point of death
suffering with brain fever and the
noise of the car is most agonizing to
the little fellow.
Residents in the neighborhood who
are being kept awake nights would
be patient for a few weeks, until
the trouble is rectifed, were it not for
the large number that have recently
been taken sick.

BEGINS CAREER
OF CRIME HERE
Frank Gryniewies Alias
Reed Found Bank Checks
Forged Others Names.

Reed, the forger arrested at Wana-
tab last week, as was fully told by
THE TIMES, has confessed of his wrong
doing In speaking. of the young fell
lows case, the LaPorte Herald said:
Reed broke down in his cell last
night and then unbosomed himself.
He admitted his identity and said that
his parents lived near the county farm
in Porter county. He claims to be but
II years old but he looks older. He
said that about a week ago he was
walking along the street in Valparaiso
when he found some small checks
which appeared to be all right. He
put them in his pocket and thought
no more of them until the next day
when he happened to be in Hammond
He NEEDED some money he said, and so
he thought he would try to pass one
of the checks. He stepped into a
bank and the cashier handed over the
money. It was SIS. That appeared so
easy, and so he tried another at Hobart
the next day. 1t was for S85. He had
some trouble trying to convince the
banker that he was the right party.
but he succeeded and all went well.
Then he went to East Chicago, cashed
another there and then dropped into a
Whiting bank, where he secured $S5
more. He didn't have a cent when ar
rested and explained this by saying
that he had lost all the money gambl-
ing He admitted that he had gambled
more or less for several years. Word
was sent to his father, but he has not
been heard from. The lads correct
name is Frank Gryniewicz. but he has
gone under the name of Reed most of
the time"
