THE PENALTY OF OVERWORK
Many Dallas Readers Find Toll A
Daily Burden.

The heavy tax of oveTwork-the strain
upon the back that is SO common to
many trades and occupations, is too
great. The kidneys begin to fail in their
work, and there is 8 double danger to
health. The poisonous matter collects
in the system, and tue kidneys them
selves begin to break down. Pain in
the back is only a warning of trouble in
the kidneys. An Inflammation has set
IN, and a disordered condition of the
urine soon becomes apparent. Too

desire to void the secretions any notice

Mr.. Bryan, throughout his whole
public career, has played the part OF a
political theorist and experimenter.
Scarcely a scheme has he adopted that
he has net within a short time either
modified or repudiated. With an eye
to be dazzled by "glittering gener-
alities, he has lacked the keen
Insight to detect minor and frequently
fatal flaws in doctrines that at first
reading or hearing, seemed wonder
fully good Hence his long course Of
cutting and trying" in the formula
ton OF his somewhat elastic policy,
grasping that which at first glance
seemed good to him and dropping it
like a hot coal when he discovered
imperfections in 1t, frequently casting
aside that which was In reality good.
because he lacked continuity OF pur-
pose to weed out its impeIiections and
trim away its awkward off-shoots. 1t
IL Is no more than could be expected.
In view OF his methods OF procedure in

scarcely more than an experiment as
yet, and where the system on which
the Peerless One" is pinning his
faith 80 firmly, has not been In action
long enough for anyone TO say with
certainty whether or not II is sue

to Oklahoma to get his theories on
the proper banking system Of the
government, is about on a par with
the wisdom a milliner would show IL

The Third Annual Industrial Fair
Of the School Children OF Polk county
which will be opened in the Woodman
Hall at o'clock tomorrow afternoon,
deserves the attendance OF every man
and women in Polk county who has
the best interest OF its public schools
and school children at heart. The
children have worked harder this year
than ever before In preparation for
the big event, they have entered a
larger and more typical array Of
exhibits aud 1t is only right that the
patrons OF the county's schools should
show their appreciation OF the child
ren's work by sending a larger num-
Der OF vlsitors.from every district than
has been sent to any of the previous
events. Hearty encouragement be-
gets hearty effort and will spur the
young exhibitors on to even greater
achievements In future.

and 6onchnuts. with coffee served in
the regulation army cups, was dealt
out 10 them.
When the feed" as some frivo-
l5usly termed it, was over, cigars, Gig
a-e;tes and an abundance of smoking
tobacco was placed at hand for all who
cared 10 smoke, and pleasant half
hour was spent in telling stories and
giving toasIs.
Lieutenant Brown acted as toast I
master. and in his selection of
speakers, shrewdly chose for the main
part, those who had met with amusing
experiences while at the summer en-
campment at American Lake. The
tale Of Private Griffith and his search
for 50 yards Of skirmish line and many
others equally amusing were told, and
at the close of the toasting, j. c.
rglow, a veteran Of the Spanish-Amer-
can War and one of the guests Of
lonor, entertained the men with few
# his Philippine experiences.
Both officers and men are highly

which is the first social event held by
he company since its organization,
nd it is anticipated that the National
iuardsmen of Dallas will prove them
elves an important factor in the
ocial activities of the coming season.

Snyder stated that it was what is
known as an employees pass, such as
is only given to men regularly en-
ployed ON the road. IL developed that
he signature on this particular pass
was that of X. V. Hogue, who in
November was joint master mechanic
of the roads ut this point. Mr.. Sny-
der stated that this signature was in
his. Snyder's, handwriting and that
he as chief clerk. was regularly en-
powered to write this signature to
these passes. 1t developed that the
pass was made out in favor of 4. S.
Hadden whom MIR. Snyder said was
the Rio Grandc foreman at Aspen.
Therefore. said Mr.. Snyder, no man
but T. S. Hadden was entitled to ride
on this pass under any condition.
Therefore, the question arises, if
Jaynes sold Forsythe the pass, where
and in what manner did Jaynes OBJ
tain it?
Mr.. Snyder declared that no such
a man as Forsythe was in the employ
of the company on this division as
far as he knew, consequently under
no circumstances did Forsythe have
any right to an employees pass.
c. w. Shores, the Rio Grande de-
tective, was the next witness called.
He identified the pass as an inter
state. employees pass. He was pres
ent at the arrest of Jaynes
All during the examination of these
witnesses by the prosecution many
objections were offered by Attorney
Logan and there We're several inter
esting tilts between the attorneys
Attorney Logan declared at one time
that nothing had been introduced in
the way of evidence showing that
Jaynes had violated the laws or at
tempted to defraud the government.
After the examination of Detec-
tive Shores a recess was taken until
this afternoon at one O'Clock at which
hour the defense announced that they
would waive further examination and
stand ready to be bound over to await
the action of the Federal court. This
of course, ended the hearing. The
prosecution had one or two other wit
nesses that il expected to introduce.
The defense. of course, offered no
testimony after expressing the wish to
forego further examination. Jaynes
was then placed under $1,000 bond to
await the action of the Federal grand
jury and the orders of the Federal
court. The bond was given.
In view of the fact that Jaynes de-
clares he could not possibly get here
yesterday the forfeited bond will
probably be refunded.

Cambridge. Mass, Dec. 15.-Presi-
dent Arthur Twining Hadley. of Yale
university, addressed the Harvard
students Saturday night at the annual
award of academic distinctions.
Theodore Roosevelt. Jr.. is among the
students attaining distinction.
In his address. Mr.. Hadley said:
Two generations ago the intellec-
tual idol of the graduates and stu
dents of most of our colleges was the
leading debator Now it is the ath-
lete who occupies the center of the
stage.
Whether we should be better off
if we had less athletic interest is
matter about which there may be
difference of opinion. There is, l
think, no difference of opinion that
we should be a great deal better off
If public attention were more largely
fixed on the intellectual prizes and
less upon the athletic ones.
The way to make the American
people more interested in scholarship
than in athletics is by proving that
our prize athletes, represent the type
of men for which there is public
need.
Can we honestly say that the
prize winners in our American uni
have done as much for the
public as the public have a right to
expect? | wish | were sure of the
