WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unoonsing Work Keeps Us
 Strong and Hoalthy.

All the blood iD the body passes through the kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys filter the blood They work night and day. When healthy they remove about 800 grains of impure matter daily, when unhealthy some part of this impure matter is left in the blood. This brings on many diseases and symptOmS-pain in the back, headache, nervousness, hot, dry skin. rheumatism. gout, gravel, disOr- ders or the eyeSiPh ht and hearing, diZ2i- ness, irregular heart, debility, drowsi- ness, drOpsy, deposits in the urine, etc. But if you keep the filters right you viIl have no trouble with your kidneys.
 W. A. Hawkins, 665 Yesler way, Se- attle, Wash, says: Ut gives me pleasure at the present time to confirm the statdmeuJ I gave some years ago iu favor of DOan's Kidney Pills, the relief l obtained from their use having proved permanent. used remedy after remedy, was unable 10 obtain re- rief bad the most severe pains across the small of my back, and was also annoyed by the irregular action of iha kidney seCretiOns.

Hammond K. G. Team Puts
One Over Visiting
Brothers.

The Knights of Columbus won their
first big game yesterday afternoon at
Harrison park when they nosed in
ahead of Michigan City by a score of
to 2. It was a pretty game, with a
low score and good field work on both
sides and good pitching.
Hill pitched for the locals and held
the Wis fors down to three hits, while
the Hammond boys got six hite Ham
mond had three errors and Michigan
City four. Louis Klitzke caught for
the Hammond team and although he
had been out of the game for seve ! /
years, he was right in the game. when
he caught yesterday.
The local team showed itself a little
weak with the stick, but taken on a
whole, Captain Hastings is very we'll
satisfied with the showing made by
his team. A little more practice and
the team Will play together in good
style. The Michigan City boys played
togethed in good shape, showing a little
more practice than Hammond ball toss
ers.
This having been the only big game
in Hammond yesterday, a good crowd
turned out to watch the game.
Owing to the degree work next Sun
day there will be no game on that day,
but Dyer having created a reputation
for itself.the local K C.'s would like to
take their measure on Sunday, June 81.

handled some that looked like base
hits. He also started the winning run
in the tenth inning by pasting a two

prepared for the crowd in right field.

GROWN POINT BOY WINS
Otto F'ifeld Helps Purdue
University to Get It's
Points.

Crown Point, Ind. June s.-(Special)
Otto Fifeld, former student of the
Grown Point high school, but now at
tending Purdue university, was re-
sponsible for making four of the points
captured by the Purdue institution at
Marshall field on Saturday last, at one
eight annual meet of the intercollegiate
Conference Athletic association.
FifeId captured second place in the
120 yard high hurdles. and third place
in the 220 yard hurdles and his win
ming was contrary to the dope" of the
wise ones. Thus Crown Point high
school is again responsible and come
into the limelight of turning out win
ners in the athletic line and it is safe
to say that no other school in the
country, of it's size has been the home
of so many athletes who have dis
tinguished themselves in events of ma
tional Importance in the athletic line
as Crown Point high school.

GARY ON ITS WAY
TO THE BALL BUGHOUSE
Three Games Are Played In the Steel
City With Varying; Success.

There were three all games, or parts
of games. in which Gary teams par
ticipated yesterday and from the at
tendance at the one which was played
on the Gary grounds, it would appear
that the town had gone baseball crazy
The Gary Marines played the Gary
Cubs on the field in the vicinity of
Twenty-seventh street and Broadway
for $25 side. and 1t is estimated that
there were 1000 people who saw the
game.
In the third inning when the score
stood to l in favor of the Gary Mar
ines, there was a dispute over the
decision of the umpire rega riding the
manner in which one of the PLAYERS
turned third on his way home and the
game broke up in row.
The crowd took sides against the UNI
pire who decided against the Cubs man
and for time it appeared that there
would be personal violence done him.
The Gary Commercials played the
Felix Colts on their grounds in Chi
cago yesterday and were defeated by
couple of players and this accounts
for their defeat.
In the first couple of innings, Pierce,
the Gary pitcher, was too fast for the
catcher and 1t was found necessary 10
substitute another catcher. Tommy
Asmuthson, who is at present under
contract with the Boston Americans.
but who is not playing, was secured
to catch and from that time on the
game went on very nicely for the Gary
team.

THREE MEN ENGAGE
IN STRENUOUS FINISH

Up to the last round three men were
in a close battle at Sharpshooters park
yesterday for the gold medal of the
Sharpshooters club. The score was not
a record breaker, but it was surely the
closest for the season.
Before the last round Frank Cowgirl
and Henry Direcks were tied for first
and Grant Hunter was only two points
behind both. A good shot on the part
of Hunter would have given him the
first medal, but he fell down on the
aim and dropped into third place. Cow
gill beat Direcks by narrow margin.
August Schneider won the fourth
medal.
Fred Sommer and the proprietor Of
Sharpshooters' park joined the club
yesterday and others have signif1ed
their intention of coming in.
The club has made arrangements for

"WHITE SLAVE" LAW IN EFFECT
International Convention Against I'M
moral Traffic VIII Shortly BE
Proclaimed.

Washington, D. c., June within
a short time the convention of 1902. to
which the United States and nearly
every European power were signatories
and which is aimed against the white
slave" trade, will be proclaimed by
President Roosevelt. Owing to the
fact that the United States has no fed
eral police it has been found difficult
to extend the cooperation provided for
by the convention in keeping down the
procurement from abroad or in this
country of women and young girls for
immoral purposes. Secretary Root.
however, is engaged in working out
the details whereby he hopes, with the
aid Of the police in conjunction with
the immigration officers, materially to
restrict the Importation and exporta-
ton of the class of women whom the
convention was designed to reach. AS
soon as the proclamation of the presi-
dent is issued, which probably will be
within the next week, the department
of commerce and labor will proceed to
make active warfare against the Of
tenders.
