If you suffer from backache,
There is only one way to cure it.
The perfect way is to cure the
kidneys.
A bad back means sick kidneys.

secretions were altogether too fire.

with sharp shooting pains that al
most took my breath away. I
came to the conclusion that my
kidneys were out of order so pro-
cured a box of Doan's Kidney
Pills. They did the work in a
short time, clearing up the kidney
secretions and removing the paid
in my back.
To anyone suffering as 1 did my
advice is to use Doan's Kidney

TICIpATED.
Three Extra SIecpers Required to Be
Added to Special Train to Leave
Tonight With the
Veterans.

Travel to the Confederate Veterans
Reunion, at Richmond. from Montgom
cry, has far exceeded the expectation
of the passenger agents of the rail-
roads going in that direction, ana ar
rangements have been made for the
accommodation of large crowds today,
when. the Western of Alabama will run
special through train from Mont
gomery direct to Richmond
This train was planned TO be made
up of three or four sleeping cars, but
three more will be added. II became
necessary to these extra ears
on account of the great interest which
is being taken in this seventeenth re-
union and which promises to be more
largely attended than any that has been
held for many years. Nearly all the
sleeping car sections were engaged
yesterday by Montgomery people and
those from nearby cities who will come
here 10 leave on the special.
The train will be in special charge
of w. H. Amerine, s. F. z. A. of the
Western of Alabama, and John Met
calf. travelling passenger agent of the
Southern It will leave Montgomery at
o'clock Thursday morning. with no
change.
The Seaboard Air Line ran a special
train yesterday morning. which carried
a large crowd from Montgomery to at
tend the reunion. which is indicative
of the general interest being taken.

~ TION.
Ciimatoioeicai Service weather Bur-
eau For the Week Ending
Monday, May ~, 1907.

General summary.
The weather was the most season.
able that has prevailed for an entire
week since the latter part of March.
The nights, however, were unfavorabiy
cool, and in some sections of the state
tie rainfall was too heavy.
The week opened fair and a good
percentage of bright sunshine was re-
ceived until about midday of the 23rd,
when conditions became threatening
very rapidly, and during the after
noon rain fell in practically every
county of the state. There were show
ers on each of the remaining days, but
on both the 25th and 26th there was
a normal amount of very bright sun
shine. The heaviest showers occurred
during the early night of the 26th. and
accompanied a thunder and gusty wind
storm of about an hours duration. AS
has been the case for several weeks,
the weekly rainfall was quite heavy
in the west-central counties. The line
inclosing the counties having had more
than zoo incheas runs eastward from
northern Lamar to northeastern JEFF
ferson. south to southern Conecuh.
then northwest to southern Choctaw. In
all the counties forming the northern.
eastern and southern borders of the
state, the fall for the week was slight
iy less than the normal.
The midday and afternoon tempera-
lures were moderately high-slightis
higher than the normal. but the night
Temperatures were unseasonably low.
The warmest weather prevailed in the
counties Immediately to the east of
the Alabama river, from Lownds south
The following table shows the tempera-
ture and rainfall at selected stations:

In good faith. that its falsity was due
to mistake and misrepresentation, and
mat full correction or retraction Of
any false statement therein was pub
iished,' etc, the plaintiff shall recov-
er only actual damages"
The complainant, after the demurrers
had been sustained by the Birmingham
CITY Court, declined to plead further
and appealed from the judgment of the
lower court.
Liability to Errors.
The Supreme Court held that the act
q the Legislature was not applicable
to defendants in libel suits other than
publishers of newspapers, In this part
OF the opinion all the justices concur
ring In the opinion In the Louisville
and Nashville case a notable paragraph
OF the opinion was this, in which the
liability of newspapers to fall mad
vertently into error was set forth:
I'VE know that the modern daily
newspaper. with its numerous report
ers, gathering news from every quar-
ter, and its busy employees working
until late In the night to place the
latest news before its readers early
In the morning is peculiarly liable
to being Inadvertently led into trou-
BILE In these matters, and it seems a
proper classification to regulate this
class of libel suits as applied to the
publishers of newspapers. But with
the individual, who prepares his article
and pays for its publication, no such
reason exists"
In The Age Herald case it was held
that where only actual damages were
claimed the complainant needed not to
ailege that he had made demand for
correction or retraction. Upon this
point there was a difference of opinion
among the Justices. Justices Simpson,
HARRISON and Andersen being of the
opinion that the demand for correction
or retraction was a condition precedent
to the bringing of suit for actual or
punitive damages, Chief Justice Tyson
and Justices benson. Dowdell and Nc
Clellan being of the opinion that the
statute was inapplicable to cases where
only actual damages were claimed.
The suits. being reversed and re-
manded, now are to be tried on their
merits before the court. in which
jury trial was demanded.
