 The evidence of the complicity of the asphalt trust in the Mates revO- lution was not sent to the senate by the state department with the other material comprised in document No. 413. but it was submitted with eX- Secretary Fosters brief, April If, and was published widely in the newspa- pers. The attitude of the asphalt trust and its advocates aroused hundreds of American editors to denounce the pur- pose to shelter it's demands under the wing, and the old relia- ble American sense of fair play made itself heard. The senate declined to authorize a display of force in behalf of the trust. or to send ships to over awe Castro
 It is undeniable that Venezuela seiz- ed the asphalt trusts holdings in that country, and still holds them; but if any American interest was wrongfully destroyed or cunfiscated" in this ac- tion. laws and customs concerning the treatment of discovered rebels and confessed conspirators vii requirt uni versal revision. The guilt of the trusts officers is proven out of their own mouths, and they have no stand ing in justice or equity. In the regu- lar and dignified course of judicial procedure in the courts of Venezuela, to whose jurisdiction the tr1,st sol emnly bound itself in its contracts to submit. the asphalt trust has been formally adjudged guilty of conspiracy and treason, and the seizure of its holdings has been judicially sustained. Moreover, the imposition of a fine of five million dollars upon the trust has just been approved by the court of last resort in this friendly American re public.

Uric acid is deadly poison that is produced in the human body, and it is the duty of the Kidneys to collect this poison from the blood, and to pass it safely out of the system, together with all waste water.
 It is the presence in the body of an excess of uric acid that causes so much pain and suffering. and so many of the aches that are commonly at tributed to rheumatism.
 The kidneys are bean-shaped or gans, composed of masses of little tubes. all of which pour their secre- tons into a main channel that leads to the bladder. In this way the kid neys pass off more than an ounce of poison every day when in health.
 But it does not take much to set the kidneys back, and when they get behind, they can not right themselves without help. The uric acid begins to clog the kidneys, causing that dull, heavy aching in the back. and sharp twinges when stopping or lifting. It crystallizes in the muscles and joints. and every turn or twist brings keen est torture. It attacks the nerves with neuralgia and sciatica. It brings head ache. dizziness, languor, and disorders of the urine.

There is nothing else so prompt and effective as Doan's Kidney Pills, and this remedy has no effect on the other organs, except to drive out the uric poison that interrupts their action. It cures the kidneys and thus ends the cause of disease. Rich, pure blood and lasting health result.
 Doan's Kidney Pills are recommend ed by your own townspeople.
 PHOENIX TESTIMONY.
 s. J. Rice, retired, of 312 N. 1st Ave, of Phoenix, Ariz., says: My kidney trouble was no doubt the results of hardships and exposure to the weather that I endured while serving in the army. When I came home I was se- verely afflicted with kidney complaint and rheumatism and these two trou- bles caused me a great deal of sui fering. Many times I was. unable to stoop over. and could not arise from a chair without taking hold of some thing for support. The secretions con- taiGed a sediment, and were so ire quent in action as to greatly disturb my rest at night. and I felt miserable most Of the time. I finally heard about Doan's Kidney Pills, procured a box at the Adams Pharmacy, and they entirely rid me of the trouble"

 He left Phoenix tired, arrived in Prescott without sleep all night, and about 10 a.m., having an excellent opportunity, he laid down, leaving instructions that he be called, for he knew he would never wake up again without help. In two minutes he was sleeping more than a hundred miles an hour and nobody called him until after the game was over
 The next day it rained. and MT. Tebben comes home, as innocent of any contamination with a Prescott baseball diamond. as the Archbishop of skoWhegan. MT. Tebben, though, says the Prescott people treated them nicely and gave them a good place to SLEEP and there will be a biz return series here next Sun day, of which more win be told later.

Her Part In One of the Most Bruta Crimes Ever Recorded.

Ottawa, Kas., July 12.-Mrs. Mollie Stewart last night was found guilty of the murder of Mrs. Jane Schneick and the punishment will be life in the penitentiary. The conviction of Mrs. Stewart follows that of Frank Schneick the husband of the murdered woman and marks the end of the pros ecutiOn of one of the most brutal mur ders committed in Kansas, the killing of Mrs. Schneick and her little son and daughter on the night of February 13, 1907, in her home near CentropOlis, Kas
