Augusta people endorse this:
Mrs. Chas. f. Graham, IL Page ST,
Augusta, Me-, says: Some years ago
my kidneys were badly disordered and
as a result, l suffered intensely from
pains in my back There were also
other evidences that my kidneys were
disordered and 1 knew that if I
neglected the trouble very long, seri-
Gus results might follow. Hearing
Doan's Kidney Pills highly recon-
mended, 1 procured a box at w. r.
Partridge's drug store and found
through their use speedy cure. Some
time after again felt a slight return
of the trouble but short use of
Doans Kidney Pills promptly
banished it. l know this remedy to be
a reliable one and will always speak
a good word for it when the oppor-
tunity presents itself"

BY BLACKMA|LERS
REFUSED MONEY
Attempt at Assassination Fol-
lows Flight of Pati and
Family.

NEW YORK, March 25.-Two New
York bankers are now under the ban of
the Black Hand--the attempted assassi-
nation today of Santo Maiallbo, banker
at 2074 Second avenue, following threats
made upon the life of Pacquale Patti,
who with his son conducted a bank al
s3S Elizabeth street.
Three men, supposed to be members
of the same a n of blackmailers
which has beer on Pati's trail, held up
Maiallbo as he was entering a saloon
near his financial institution. One of
the men stabbed him in the neck and
head. The trio escaped. Demands for
money have been made during the past
two months on Maiallbo.
PATS bank is closed. With his fam
lily he has fled the city, taking with
him the deposits. Hundreds of deposit
tors gathered today in front of the
bank. and fought with the police who
were called to dispense them.

laughed themselves into fits. Then
they went to dinner, leaving Miss
Dummy chill on the veranda. When

gone.
Meanwhile Charles r. Borton. a

waist. a black skirt and picture hat
with ostrich plumes in the bushes near
Rancocas Greek. The ground was kick
ed up, showing every evidence that a
struggle had taken place. A woman
told Of hearing a cry Of "Murder!' the
previous night. "Ah, a fearful crime
has been committed" said the police
III to himself as he started for
Magistrate Zeigler's house.
On the way he passed the zurbrugg

Where did you find them?" they
asked, grabbing the clothes. Then
came explanations. But Riverside is

moved the dummy still has a hatpin set

LOCAL MOTORISTS
TO DRAFT NEW
AUTOMOBILE LAW
Will Admit Cars Licensed in
Other States on Tag Is
sued Them There.
FIGHT HIGH FEES FOR
STATE ROADS SUPPORT
No Objection Offered to Present
Speed CIause-Say Careless
Drivers Should Suffer.

Not satisfied with the progress of the
movement for obtaining an automobile
law more favorable for the advance
ment of the trade and pleasure motoring
interests, which has so far succeeded
only in antagonizing Governor Fort and
Senator Joseph Frelinghuysen, Trainer
of the present law, a bill will be
drafted by motorists in this city
which will be presented at this session
of the Legislature, and which will con-
tain all of the features advocated by the
automobile world. 1t viii be offered
with the expectation of being amended,
but belief is expressed hat it will be
an Improvement over the present law
as it stands.
The new bill will provide for the adj
mission of cars bearing the license OF
other States within New Jersey with
out further identification han the
license tag of its own State. This. it is
urged by the New Jersey Automobile
Trade Association, The pioneer body. in
taking a sane stand for better motor
laws. will greatly aid the automobile
trade and will bring persons into New
Jersey who will have money to spend
here. At present, 1t is urged, these per-
sons are ~antagonized and give their
patronage to Connecticut, New York
and Massachusetts.
The secopd provision of the bill will
provide for a nominal license fee suffi-
Client to support a department for the
regulation of automobile traffic and
not enough to pay for the State roads.
The argument is that every person
pays for the maintenance of the roads
and for their use in his taxes, n that
to add another tax by placing a high
license on the automobile is unconsti-
tutional.
The speed clause of the law is not
looked upon as important. as traffic in
this direction Is regulated by common
sense, and those who fail in this respect
pay the penalty either by fine or inn
prisonment in the same way a careless
driver of a wagon or the motorman of
a trolley car would.
