HxTNNSION
OF
oAKwO0D
CEMETERY.

It will be of great interest to the people of Montgomery to know, that the urgent need which mas so long pre- vailed of a suitable and desirable ad- dition to Oakwood cemetery. has been most admirably disposed of by placing on the market for cemetery purposes the beautiful plat of ground. immed- lately east of and adjacent to. what is known as the 41ew cemetery.
 There is not to be found anywhere near Montgomery such desirable lots for Cemetery purposes. as 1t naturally forms . part of the present City cems- tery, separated only by an imaginary line, and will sell on sight to any one wishing to purchase a Cemetery lot.
 The prices asked for these lots are most reasonable. and will be sold on easy payments to those desiring to purchase in this way.
 A plat of these lots. with photo graphs of the property with full in- formation concerning same. can be ob.: tained from the well known Real Es- tate and Insurance Firm of Thomas & Jockson, No. 22 Commerce Street. who have charge of this property.

The trespass agent stated that he had gained an admission from one of the nrm of Hillman -Suth- erland and Company that the lands were worth at least @ an acre and 1t appears from the record that they were sold for 90 cents an acre and all obligation of trespass waived. About 5000 acres were involved In this trans- action.
 The friends of the former Governor do not regard his action In accepting service with the trsspass agents on the promise of reward from them as even technically wrong, although his services were engaged and paid for by the State. The service that he was to perform in conjunction with the tres pass agents was to bs for the interest of the State; 1t was to the advantage of the State to have him associated with them. and 1t was nothing to the pecuniary cost on the part of the State that his service in this matter was to be given. The former Governor has been % severely criticised. however. for his administration of the intefnal

HIDDEN DANGERS.

Uric acid is e deadly poison that is produced in the human body, and It Is the duty of the kidneys to collect this poison from the blood. and to pass it safsiy out of the system together with all waste matter.
 Ii is the presence in the body of an exoess of uric acid that causes 60 much pain and suffering. and so many of the aches that are commonly at tributed to rheumatism.
 The kidneys arc bean-shaped organs, composed of masses of little tubes, all of which pour their secrstions into . main channel that leads to the blad- der. In this way the kidneys pass of more than an ounce of poison every aay when in health.
 But 1t does not take much to set tho kidneys back. and when they get be- hind. they can not right themselves without help. The uric acid begins to clog the kidneys, causing that dull, heavy aching in the back. and sharp twinges when stopping or lifting IT crystallizes in the muscles and joints, and every turn or twist brings keen est torture.

Prisoner Who Was Robbed Tries New
Plan to Find His Money.

At the county Jail at noon today,

one who had stolen money from an
other. Prof. Bischoff came down by

attempted burglary, and will have a
hearing during the January term of
court.
Several days ago friends in Kansas
City sent $40 to Saunders. The jail
ers warned him against Keeping il
with him in Jail. but he insisted, and
carefully concealed the money about
his person. This morning he found
that he had been picked clean while
he slept, and Immediately raised a
'holler." The jailers began a search
for the missing money, searching ev-
cry prisoner in that ward, but without
success. One prisoner. Percy Gayhart,
who will soon be taken to the peni-
closely, but without results. In the
meantime the loser of the money,
Saunders, had requested that Prof.
Bischof be called to find his money.
The clairvoyant was late in reaching
the Jail, and in the meantime the Off
GERS had found part of the money u
ten dollar bill hidden in a crack, a ten
dollar gold piece in Gayhart's mouth,
where he had been holding it while
the officers made their search. The
results were not told Prof. Bischofr

BOUGHT HIS OWN BONDS
Walsh Then Sold Them to His Own
Banks to Get Money.

Chicago. Dec 1S.-E. P. Moxey, the
national bank examiner, the last i'm
portant witness for the government,
was on the witness stand today In
Banker Walsh's trial. A reading of
entries of bond sales of the Walsh
railroad and the three Walsh banks
constituted the greater part of his
testimony. 1t tended to show accord
ing to the assistant district attorney
that whenever Walsh needed money
for his personal enterprises he issued
bonds, bought them at his own price
and sold them to the banks.
The government claims that when
the banks were suspended they held
bonds and bond certificates of four
Walsh enterprises amounting to 49,
$4,000.
