Kidney UOuDic.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
1t used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin

When MI. Bryan said that he be-

interfere in controlling the government?
Mr.. M. E. Ingalls, when president of

did all the great trusts. Now we find
the railroad presidents begging the
government to save them from the

always been their motto. They prac-

therefore as the railroads can work

DEPARTMENT CHESS GAMES
GOVERNMENT PRINTING OF
FICE TEAM IN FIRST PLACE.

The SIX teams composing the Depart
mental Chess League entered upon the
second round of the championship tourra-
ment Wednesday evening. After the
smoke of battle had cleared away IL was
possible to establish a clear leader in the
race. as Government Printing Office was
the only team that remained with a clean
score. The printers. however, had to
work hard to beat Agriculture, in spite
of the fact that they won early on boards
and 4. through the nstrumentaiity or
Mccormick and Schreiber. 1t was seen
that Roberts of Agriculture on board
had the preferable game against Graham.
while there was nothing to choose between
Hitchcock and Arends on the remaining
board. Capt. Arends, realizing that
draw on his board was all that was neces-
sary to insure win for his team, devoted
himself strictly TO this end, and sue
ceeded admirably. Hitchcock was unable
to obtain more than an even position, and
finally. being compelled to try to win
drawn game, paid the usual penalty and
lost. In the meantime Roberts, having
won a pawn early in the game, always
had little the better of ii with Graham,
and in spite of clever play by the latter
succeeded after prolonged fight, in
turning his pawn plus into a win. thus
saving his side from shut-out.
Navy was outplayed by Interior. Capt.
Walker of the latter team met with his
usual success on board l, and Cohen
and Pratt followed suit on boards and ..
Col Lounsberry was unavoidably absent,
and had to forfeit his game, which gave
the Interior the match by J to l. Secre-
tary Smell, who captains the Navy, has
not yet got his men in their best going
order and greatly feels the loss OF
Webster, who last year had become
of the most reliable members of the
team.
Treasury had been touted to win from
Commerce and Labor. but the latter were
able to hold them to draw. each SIDE
winning and losing two games. This
places Treasury in second place in the
team race. The honors went to Capt
Tupper and Satteree of the money
changers, and to Capt Richardson and
Guyer of Commerce and Labor. The
game between Richardson and Haistead
was somewhat of surprise to both par
ties, it and lost more than
once before the final move was made.
Possibly the presence of a lemon which
graced one side of this board at the be
ginning of the play. had etiling to do
with this. Be that it may. IL was Ger
tainly fact that the dispenser of yellow
spheroids had in this instance made no
mistake in the placing thereof. The full
results of the matches and the standing
of the teams TO date are follows:

Government Takes Action.

The matte of the Englishmen coming
to America was kept a profound secret
until the morning of the game, and then
the strong arm OF the government came
near breaking up the contest. Some
one informed the commissioner of i'm
migration, Mr. Terence V. POwderly,
that Won der Horst, Hanlon and Sulli-
van had violated the alien contract law by
importing Iaborers to play foot ball, and
there was talk of arrests. Inspectors
went to Baltimore to serve papers on the
leaders. but for some reason the inspec-
tors did not interfere with the game here

Vale is the favorite over Harvard for
the final game OF the year with the Grim

Guiding that with Brown, which they won
by the score o 70, indicates a tre-
mendous amount Of power in the Blue
eleven which was not needed in any of
the preliminary matches. ANY hope that
was entertained OF a Harvard victory
dashed to the ground when the Crimson
lost To the Carlisle Indians last week, -
u. This score by no means indicates the
extent 10 which Harvard was outplayed.
IL fact, the Crimsons L. points came
largely on account OF Parker's goal from
Placement and Il continuation of the good
luck which has followed this Harvard
team all season

Should have been prepared with a defense
for the Indians plays since they used the

Cedtns games.
The fact that Harvard. knowing all
these things, could not stop the Redmen,
indicates the existence of d weakness which
the Harvard Goa Ches were ignorant of. In
this respect the Pennsylvania team which
ran up against the Indians FIST was badly
handicapped. This game was seen by both
Harvard and Princeton coaches and the
Crimson coaches should have fortified
themselves for the Indian attack as well
as Princeton. That they did not do so Is
proof enough that either the coaches or
PLAYERS wee incompetent. A. any rate
il is argument enough for making Yale d

The end of the left field territory in

cover the bah pushed it down batwean

part of July. The nationals appeared
to have both games won up to the final

HIGH SCHOOL DISCIPLINE.

A year ago when trouble broke out |
in the public schools the Press took
the position that no school could
prosper without discipline, and that
the board should stand behind the
superintendent in his efforts to main
tain good order. holding him respon-
sible for the same. In that contro-
versy It was question OF having a
head to the schools with authority or
an automaton whose acts we're To be
directed or set aside by the board at
will. After mature elaboration the
board decided that the superintendent
should be the ruling power at the
head of the schools and be held re-
sponsible for their condition. That
Is proper.
Almost from the beginning of the
last semester there has baen an under
current Of characterization among the
pupils Of the high school, due In .
measure to the absence Of tact and
ability In the principal, although the
pupils themselves are old enough TO
know how to behave better than they
have been doing. These conditions
have grown into an open insurrection
for which the superintendent must be
held responsible, and under him the
principal must be held accountable,
and the time has come for the school
board to act. II II longer fails to
take oognizance of the situation the
high school may ~ we'll DO closed, so
far as some Of the students are con-
cerned.
The Press Is not going into the de.
tails Of che affair which took place
yesterday; but the good Of the school
demands that something be done, and
while the principal may be deficient
In discipline, 40 long as he Is acting
In that capacity the students must be
compelled TO respect, or ct least obey,
bis orders. From our knowledge OF
conditions, we do not believe that this
