Kidney ills comes quietly--mysteri-

But nature always warns you.
Notice the kidney secretions.
See if the color is unhealthy
If there are settings and sediment,
Passages frequent, scanty, painful.
It's time then to use Doan's Kidney
Pills,
To ward off Bright's disease or dia-
betes.
Doan's have done great work in Man
ming.
G. l.. McElveen, S. Church St., Man
ming, S. c., says: "Doan's Kidney Pills
proved to be the best kidney remedy l
ever used. MY kidneys were weak ior
some time and too frequent passages OF
the secretions caused me to arise often
during the night. I suffered severely
from backaches and pains through my
loins and at times I was so lame that !
could not stoop or lift. I finally read
about Doan's Kidney Pills and procured
them. Since using this remedy, the
backache has disappeared. the lameness
vanished and I do not have to arise at
night. I highly recommend Doan's Kid
ney Pills at every opportunity"

NOT A CANDIDATE
FOR CITY MARSHAL
Mr.. John r. Bennett States Positively
That He Will Not Enter the
Race for That Office.

Some time ago, in giving the names
of possible prospective candidates for
various municipal offices, The News
stated that friends of Mr.. John F.
Bennett, the present city tax coll, T.
tor, would ask him to enter the race
for chief of police.
Mr.. Bennett stated this morning
that, while the subject has been men
toned to him by different individuals,
he had never seriously contemplated
running for the office, and that he pos
itively would not become a candidate
for the place.
Chief of Police Williams has an
nounced to his friends that he would
offer for reelection, and it is thought
probable that Police Officer b. O. Do
herty will be his opponent, as it is
known that a number of his friends
have insisted that he enter the race.
Mr.. Doherty has not as yet, however,
made positive announcement of his
intentions in the matter.

WRECK LAST night
ON N. c. RAILROAD
Tender and Three Passenger Coaches
Were Cerailed, But Nobody Was
Injured.

Passengers aboard the Mississippi
Central west-bound train, No. 3, Lad
narrow escape last night when three
coaches flew the track at point be-
tween Silver Creek and Natchez.
While the train was running at an
ordinary rate of speed, it is said that
the engine tender jumped the track,
for some unaccountable reason, and
as consequence the entire train of
three passenger coaches was derailed
While the track was considerably
torn up and the coaches sustained
some damage as a consequence, no
one was injured. and today the track
is clear and traffic is being handled
uninterruptedly.
The cause of the accident could moi
be accounted for by the conductor
and engineer in charge of the tarin.

FORTUNE TELLERS
MUST PAY LICENSE
"PaImistry" Game Will Not Work
With Officials Of Hattiesburg
and Forrest County.

This morning there appeared at the
sheriffs office three Brazilians, who
requested certificate permitting
them to practice palmistry without
paying the fortune teller's privilege
tax. These wanderers produced for
Deputy Rawls inspection a collec-
ton of documents obtained from of
ficials of counties in municipalities
and counties in Mississippi granting
permission to practice the "art" un-
molested, without paying the privilege
tax, on the ground that the law made
no provision for license to practice
palmistry.
Mr.. Rawls, however, was of the opin-
ion that palmistry was nothing less
than fortune te.ing, and, inasmuc.
as the privilege tax is charged for
the latter, he did not feel at liberty
to give these people certificates of
exemption. City Tax Collector Rem
nett was consulted, and stated that
the "palmists" would undoubtedly be
required to come across with the privi-
lege tax if they expected to do busi-
ness here.
The Brazilians claim that palmistry
is an art, and not fortune telling. and
therefore not subject to taxation for
its practice, but Webster defines II
as ''the art or practice of telling for
tunes by the lines or marks in the
palm of the hand" and the city and
county authorities were disposed to
accept Webster's ruling in the matter
However, before finally deciding the
matter, Tax Collector Bennett thought
it prudent to get the opinion of Cit,
Attorney Sullivan, and upon his de
risicn win the fate of the wanderers

Jackson Miss, Dec. 17.-State Rev

Ingratitude Unparalleled.

The claim now made by the Illinois
Central, said Attorney General Stead
that it owes the state nothing be-
cause of this land grant, is an exam
pie of ingratitude that has no parallel
since the time of Judas Iscariot
Attorney General Stead said the
state made contract with the road,
and that an accounting was to be
made each year until 1877, when the
road began to forget" to send ac.
counts to the state.
