Don't Mistake the Cause of Your
Troubles. A Barton Citizen Shows
How to Cure Them.

How to Cure Them.
Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a lame,
weak or aching back they think that it
is only muscular weakness: when
urinary trouble sets in they think it
will soon correct itself. And so it is
with all the other symptoms of kidney
disorders. That is just where the
trouble lies. You must cure these
troubles or they may lead to diabetes
or Bright's disease. The best remedy
to use is Doan's Kidney Pills. It
cures all ills which are caused by weak
or diseased kidneys. Barton people
testi y to permanent cures.
Mrs. O. D. Rowell, living at High
St.. Barton. VT. says: II have used

Polly sauntered away from the

to put his arm about her waist She

joined her in the shade of cotton

"Whos in that wagon?'' he cried,
moving toward it. ''Show Low

"No-Buddy." said Polly, thinking she
might as well confess the deception

name of her lover in order to soften
Sims anger against him.

convinced that he was mistaken, but

that shrewder lovemaker than Slim

TWENTY FIVE
MINERS DEAD
Gas ExplOdeS in Letter mine at Zeig-
Ter and Only One Man
Escapes.

Duquoin, H., Jan. IA disas-
trous explosion, in which % men lost
their lives, occurred in Joseph Lei
ters famous colliery at Zeigler. A
spark from a trolley pole of an cleo
trio motor, coming in contact with a
pocket of gas, is assigned as the
cause of the explosion.
The Americans killed by the explo-
sion include: Willis Warner and Al
bert Kerr, foremen; James Patter-.
son, Joe Richardson, Fred Morgan, J..
o. Erans, Gilbert Jones, Joe Tate,
James Philips, John Cassay, Aaron
Jereoll, Thomas Hubbard, Cebe Puck
ct and Charles Smothers.
Mr.. Letter personally conducted the
first relief party that descended into
the mine to recover the bodies. The
lone survivor of the explosion was an
Italian youth, who escaped unhurt.
An expert who had been expert
menting with the gas in the mines at
Zeigler left Wednesday, confident
that he had placed the mine in safe
condition to be operated.
The men entombed were engaged
in clearing away the debris caused by
the recent fires in the mine, and II
was expected that the operations
would be resumed this week after
two months suspension.
The bodies taken from the mine
are badly burned, and Identification
is difficult. Twenty-six men entered
the mine on the night shift and the
names of the victims are taken from
the payroll
The explosion was peculiar. No
noise or shock was heard or felt at
the opening of the shaft-only a pun
of smoke.

CITY MAY PURCHASE THE
COURT VIEW HOTEL PROPERTY
Mayor Hughes Thinks Would Make Ideal City Hall SieMater viii
be Presented at Next Meeting Of The City COunil

Ever since the fire that destroyed
the Court View Hotel Thursday morn
ing it has been rumored that an effort
would be made to get the city to pur-
chase the property and build a city
building on the site.
A reporter for The News called on
the Mayor at his Office Monday morn
ing to find out if there was anything
In the report and found the Mayor
very much in favor of it. He said the
idea occurred to him the morning it
burned and he had asked a good
many Of our leading citizens for their
opinion on the matter and found all
of them to be very much in favor of
it.
The matter will probably be brought
up at the next meeting of the City
Council and if it meets with the APP
proval of the councilmen, a committee
will be appointed to take the matter
up and to confer with the property
owners as to the price of the lot and
the conditions under which they could
purchase it.
Mayor Hughes said that the rent
that the city is now paying for the
different buildings they occupy, would
almost aythe interest on the bonds
that would have to be issued to build
building of their own.
The building would include the
Mayors office and all other city Off
Gals Offices, police court room, coun-
ell chamber, fire department and city
Jail.
