a STORY ABOUT TWO TWINS.

Once there we're twin boys who
had thought of going out on a long
journey. One of the boys names is
Charley and the other one. Harley.
What one did the other one did the
same thing. They had been thinking
for quite a while what to do. So one
of them said, Lets go out in the
woods and pick berries. This is what
they decided on doing. They had
started out and had taken the wrong
road and got lost When all at once
they heard noise. They looked up
and saw big ugly black bear COM
ing towards them. When they saw 1t
they screamed for help but no one
came. So they climbed to the top If
a tree and watched to see where the
bear went and when they saw it go
into thiclet they climbed down and
were soon home. When Old Rover,
the dog. came running to meet them
when they got home they told the
story to their mother. They never
went to pick berries after that.
I remain your Junior friend,

STREET CAR ACCIDENT.

On Saturday afternoon there was a
collision on the street car track at the
Norman corner, which resulted in the
rear platform of the Park passenger
car being crushed
1t seems that the freight motor car
was pushing two freight cars up from
the G. T. Stage Co.'S distilleries, and
just as the Park car was turning into
Ann street, and before the rear end
had cleared the track, the motor car
pushed the freight cars up the track
towards the railroad depot and they
collided.
Luckily a number of the incoming
passengers had alighted from the pas
senger car (the platform, of which
had only few minutes before been
crowded with people,, and all the pas
sengers were inside the car. Other
wise calamity might have happen
ed.

coming car and say the accident.

aches and pains that come when the
kidneys fail make life a burden
Backache, hip pains, headaches, dizzy
spells, distressing urinary troubles, al
tell of sick kidneys and warn you OF
the stealthy APPROACH of diabetes
dropsy and Bright's disease. Doan's
Kidney Pills permanently cure all
these disorders. Here's proof of it in
a woman's words
Mrs. T. Thornton, of 533 Short
street, Frankfort, KY, says: "A con
slant dull, aching pain across the
small of my back caused by my
kidneys has annoyed me for years
On account of this and for the fact
that my back has been so weak,

RICHMOND GOES DRY.

The city of Richmond, county seat
of Madison county, has just come out
of hot fight on the local option ques-
ton. AS usual, where the women and
children can influence the male con-
tingent, the "drys" won by the deci-
sive majority of 14S. The total vote
cast was 1,10S, of which 628 were cast
for local option, and 4SO against.
1t was freely predicted before
hand that the 'wets" would win.
AS high as $40 was paid for single
vote. Only one precinct in the city
went wet"
Strange to say it is said that the
victory for the "drys" was won by the
intelligent colored vote, which Prof.
Curry had pledged for local option.
