HIDDEN DANGERS.
Nature Gives Timely Warnings Tha
No Orangeburg Citizen Can
Afford to Ignore.

DANGER SIGNAL NO. 1 comes
from, the kidney secretions. They
will warn you when the kidneys are
sick. Well kidneys excrete a clear,
amber fluid. Sick kidneys send out
thin, pale land foamy, or a thick
red, ill-smelling urine, full of sedi-
ment and irregular of passage.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 2 comes
from the back. Back pains, dull and
heavy, or sharp and acute tell you
of sick kidneys and warn you of the
approach Of dropsy, diabetes and
Bright's disease. Doan's Kidney
Pills cure sick kidneys and cure
them permanently.

WARE FOUND GUILTY.
Seymour Banker confesses and Gets
Five Years.

Five Y6dFS.
Corydon.-Leroy Ware, who has
been held in Jail for some months for
| fraudulent banking as cashier of the
defunct Farmers and Drovers' State
bank of Seymour, pleaded guilty in
district court here rather than stand
trial and was sentenced to serve five
years in the penitentiary. Ware
pleaded guilty to one of the indict-
ments for making fraudulent entries
in the books of the bank. There were
twenty-one other indictments found
| against him, all of which will be per-
mitted to stand for the present.
While Wares plea OF guilty was but
| a short cut to certain conviction,
there were many depositors who hop
ed for a thorough airing of the whole
bank muddle in the courts, There is
a strong feeling here that Ware is as
much sinned against as a sinner and
that he was in many respects a mere
| cats paw.
The policy of the bank, for which
the directors were responsible, was
one that meant destruction under any
circumstances" declared w. L. Liv-
ingston, attorney for Ware, in COM
menting upon the action of his client.
THE books show that time and time
again the officers of the bank drew
dividends from the bank at from 6 to
12h per cent and even higher, and
as high at 1917 per cent interest OH
their time deposits, all while the bank
was in a precarious condition.
Lot q q
short time before the failure the
stockholders at a regular meeting in
creased the capital of the institution
from 100000 to $4,000 on a pretend
ed undivided surplus and profits and
at the same time paid the stock
holders dividend of II per cent on
a capitalization of $4,000. The AT
torneys for the bank claim that the
books will disclose that for the year
preceding this action there was an
factual deficit of $4,000 instead of a
surplus or profit.
Among the old papers Of the bank
are found undisputed evidences of a
system of rediscounting through the
bank, whereby the favored directors
or officers would take from the bank
paper bearing per cent interest and
. other paper guaranteed by the bank
and then rediscount the paper at G
per cent and pocket the per cent at
the expense of the bank.
without trying to create any maud
lin sympathy for Mr.. Ware it can be
. truly said of him that he was sud
a denly left in 1895 in full command Of
the bank without sufficient clerica
. help and no one to advise him ani
