A STEADY DRAIN
Sick Kidneys Weaken the Whole Body
Make You III, Languid and

DICK NIuHoys WedKon tHe WHoIe D0uy
Make You III, Lansuid and
Depressed.
Sick kidneys weaken the body
through the continual drainage Of
life giving albumen from the blood
into the urine, and the substitution Of
poisonous uric acid that goes broad
cast through the system, sowing the
seeds Of disease. Loss Of albumen
causes weakness, languor, depression.
Uric poisoning causes rheumatic pain,
nervousness, nausea, cricks in the
back, gravel and kidney stones. The
proper treatment is a kidney treat
ment, and the best remedy is Doan's
Kidney Pills. Here Is good proof In
the following testimonial:
E. w. Conner, 464 Hampton St.,
ago I began to have spells of back
ache, being afflicted In a rather pc
culiar way. A pain would strike me
when I least expected and often when
walking on the street / would be ia
ken with a crick in my back. For
days I was unable to get about on ac-
count Of these spells. Sometime ago
1 heard about Doan's Kidney Pills
and procured supply. They relieved
me and have not had severe attack
of the trouble since. Sometimes
feel slight soreness across my loins
but on such occasions I take Doan's
Kidney Fills and they never fail to
give me relief. I do not think there
is a remedy on earth equal to them"

Got a Cow.

J. j. Moran is a careful driver
of an auto, but the red blood that
circulateS in his veins causes him
to sit up and take notice if any
thing of ordinary speed attempts
to pass him. Last week j. j. was
speeding along out north of Alex
ander, keeping inside the speed
limit and opening his eyes when
the clouds of dust would permit,
when all at once a large dull red
object lOOmed up ahead Of him,
and thinking someone had taken
advantage of him in a cloud Of
dust and passed him, decided to
overhaul and pass the impudent
offender. He threw the lever
down hard and lurched ahead
quickly Overtaklng the object, an
swinging to the right he gave g
lusty hOnk and pushed forward
but the red object also turned tt
the right, and when the jar was
over j. j. had a COW to skin anG
a choice lot of beef-a sudden pu
chase-to dispose of.

A Democratic Love Feast.

Arrangements are being made
for a Democratic conference, ban
quet and love feast of the faith
full in the Seventh congressional
district, to be held at Hutchinson
or next Tuesday, May 9rd. This
is not such a terrible busy season
and as the distance and cOnse-
quent expense to attend this meet
ing will not be great, we urge all
who can to go. There will be no
convention of any kind this year,
thus this will be the only oppOr-
tuunity of getting together for
the purpose of comparing notes
and getting a lineup for the pur-
pose Of wallOping the common en-
envy at the polls in November.
Senator Hodges, candidate for tn,
Democratic nomination for COVER
nor will be present and deliver al
address, as will also other prom
inent Democrats. Come on, let's
all go, and show the opposition
that there is some life left in us
yet.

Opera House Opening.

Next Monday evening, April 25
is the date set for opening the
new La Crosse opera house. This
opera house, so the travelling men
say who make all the towns along
the Missouri Pacific tell us, is by
far the best one between Kansas
City and Pueblo. The total cost
Of the structure, including all
chairs, fixtures, ETC., will be
$12,5OO, and everything is of the
very best. 1t is seated with fold
ing opera chairs, giving a seating
capacity of $50 reserved seats,
25O other seats, and for speaking,
and gatherings other than theat-
rical entertainments at least 200
chairs will be placed on the stage,
giving a total seating capacity of
1000. 1t will be lighted through
out with electricity, $50 lights be-
ing used for this purpose. 1t will
be heated by a furnace in the
basement, where the dressing
rooms are also located underneath
the stage. One of the latest i'm
proved Edison picture machines,
costing $225 has been purchased
by the company for use in the
building.
This building has been erected
wholly by local capital, all the
stock being held by home people,
There are some fifty stockholders

Fred Bacon in Trouble.

Suffering from nasty blow In .
the vicinity of his left temple,
from several other blows on his
body, from being kicked, accord
ing to his story, and Smarting
from the loss of $40 in real money
that he had been relieved of, Dan.
iel Elisarraras, a Mexican in the
employ of the Santa re here, ap-
pealed to Assistant Chief of Po-
Ice YoSt last night shortly after
nine o'clock. lie told the officer
in broken English what had oe-
Cured and a hurried trip to the
vicinity of the Missouri Pacific
freight house, where the alleged
hOld-up occurred, resulted in the
arrest of one of the alleged rob-
bers and the probable arrest of
another this afternoon.
Fred Bacon is the man who wa
arrested charged with being i'm
plicated in the crime and he is
being held at the police station
pending a state warrant being Is
sued. lie is from EllinwOOd, has
a reputation of being a bad
case" here, and formerly has been
connected with several joints in
this city. Elisarraras was taken
before County Attorney James
Hettinger this morning and told
his story, and that officer says he
will issue a complaint. However;
several details are lacking and
something Of cOrrObOratiOn Of the
Mexican's story is wanted before
the warrant is issued. For that
purpose Elisarraras was accom-
panied by Officer YOst over the
ground that was traversed by. the
former last night, going to the
home of the friend he had been
to visit and thence back. to the
place where the robbery occurred

Picnic Date Settled.

At a special meeting Ofthe Bus
mess Mems Association held Mon
day evening, the date of the picnic
to be held next Month was finally
settled and the big thing will com
off on May IS. The little differ
ence of opinion that had existed
as to a base ball game on that dal
as a distinct proposition from the
picnic, was irOned out. The ball
game will not be called until five
o'clock in the evening, the gates
not to be opened until twenty miI
uteS before that time. The pro-
gram of the picnic people will be
so arranged as to start at ten
O'Clock in the morning and to be
completed at five. This will give
every one an opportunity to see
all that the Business Men have to
offer, and then those who desire.
to attend the ball game can do so.
while the others will be entertain
ed by band concert down town.
This is a satisfactory solution of
what looked for awhile like a per.
picking question, and we believe
will give everyone an opportunity
to get what they want.
Now then, every one boost for
this picnic. Let us entertain eva
cry one that comes to town, and
let whOsOever will, come. This
is going to be the biggest thing
that ever happened in the way Of
free day for our people, and af-s
ter getting their wants supplied
they will feel like winding up the
day by patronizing the ball boys,
who play the Newton team on
that day, and who will put up 4
good article of bail.

ticulars, keep you eyes on the ads

ONE BODY is FOUND
IN MINE AT CHERRY

CHERRY, ILL.,, Feb. 2.-The body of
one miner and the carcasses of sixty
four mules were found $50 feet deep in
the st. Paul mine today by the relay
parties Of repairers and explorers who
began work in the burned passages last
night. Explorers last night stopped up
all dangerous breaks in the walls of the
main runway to the west of the main
shaft on the second velel. The work
was also extended to the south, as
far as the air shaft, thus opening a
passageway between the two shafts.
1t was at the edge of the air shaft
that the body was found.
1t lay sprawled along the runway
with hands extended toward the es-
cape pit. Safety coul dnot havebeen
found in the air shaft however for
it was in this wall that the hay blazed
so fiercely.
It was discovered today that the
third level, 500 feet below the surface,
is not full of water. as had been
thought. A stone dropped down the
elevator shaft hit the top of the cage
that ran from the third level to the
second.
AS this car now rests on the bot
tom of the third level, the waiter can
not be NOR ethan five feet deep, prob
ably less. Pumps were installed to-
day to draw water from the mine.

SEVENTY-FIvE ARE
DEAD IN EXPLOSION

PRIMERO, Colo, Feb 2.-Monday's
explosion in the main mine of the
Colorado Fuel & Iron company claimed
a total of rs victims and left 35 widows
and S. fatherless children.
These facts were determined late
this afternoon when the official cam
vass of the camp was completed and
the names of the missing men checked
with the company's pay roll.
Exploration of the workings continued
all day, but not until o'clock to-
night were the efforts of relief parties
successful, when the bodies of two
drivers, unidentified, were found in a
cross-cut between All and A12, and
brought to the surface.
All day the number of bodies recov-
cred had remained at 48, but workers
succeeded in penetrating portions of
the mine hitherto held from invasion
by afterdamp.
General Funeral Planned
While work underground continued
unabated, practically the only activity
apparent about the camp today was
that of the men detailed to assist the
coroner in preparing the bodies for
burial. Late this afternoon Coroner
Guilfoyl' sent 81 bodies to Trinidad on
a special train, and tomorrow prob
ably will forward the remaining 16 to
that city, where a general funeral will
be held.
Late this afternoon a semi-ofFicial
statement was obtained by the AS
sociated Press of the progress of the
work of rescue, which confirmed prac-
tically in every detail developments as
they have appeared in these dispatches.
This statement, issued just after
o'clock showed that at that hour eX-
ploring parties had penetrated 5000 feet
from the entrance along the main
slope. Entries AL to A6, inclusive,
comprising abandoned workings. En-
tries AT, s, 9 and 10 had been COM
pletely explored, while parties had
penetrated some distance into entries
All and II. Tonight's shift succeeded
in reaching the face of these entries
and recovering two additional bodies,
briging the total recovered up to fifty.
Great Havoc Wrought
It also was stated that the greatest
havoc had been wrought near entries
A9 and 10. These entries, 1000 feet long,

mouth of the shaft awaiting the rescue
of loved ones.
Most of the killed were Mexicans,
the Japanese miners being employed in
other parts of the mines.
The governor of Coahuila and sal
tillo instructed the local authorities to
take such action as they deemed
necessary and to investigate thor
oughly the cause of the disaster.
The mining company officials lost no
time in making provision for the in
jured.
An order was telegraphed to Eagle
Pass and Monterey for coffins for the
dead, and money and food have been
provided for the suffering families.
The Palau mine is one of the best
equipped coal mines in the republic
1t is in an adequate ventilating sys-
tenn, is provided with electric lights,
and mining officials are utterly at a
loss to account for the presence of
mine damp in No. workings.
