Brother Peter Uickerson. deacon in
ST. Peters (colored) Baptist church.

nothing in swearing out warrant

were put upon Brother Diekerson.
Ever since the trouble between the
congregation and Dickerson some

in the church. Following the last air

Dickerson agreed to let the ce-i grega-
ton worship in the church. and 1t was
then agreed that he should act as
sexton until Nome one else could be
gotten to fill the place,
Then suddenly the preacher left,
and as soon as the pulpit was declared
vacant Brother Dickerson put on his
own private lock and it Was for re-
moving this lock that Mallory was ar

Rev. Simon Jackson has been con-

claimed that Deacon Dickerson is not
on friendly terms with any Of the
flock and that he has not attended a

PEARY'S fight IN ARCTIC ICE F[OES
Difficulties and PeriIs Of Nayl.
eating a Ship In the Polar Seas
NNidly Described by the Dis.
Coyerer of the North Pole ::

N the March issue of Hampton,s
Magazine Commander Robert e.
Peary, the discoverer of the
north pole, deals with "The Bat
tie With the Ice From Etah to Cape
Sheridan" as described in his nara
tive of THE Discovery of the North
Pole" For the first time in all that
has been written about polar research
does the average man get an idea of
the tremendous difficulties of sailing
ship in the polar seas. This battle
of the Roosevelt with tumbling ice
bergs and grinding ice foes literally
hanging over the rail ready to smash
the boat to pieces reveals to the quiet
reader sitting by his fireside a vivid
and memorable picture of the contin-
ual peril of such work.
1T is hard for a layman to under
stand the character of the ice through
which the Roosevelt fought her way"
says Peary. 'Most persons imagine
that the ice of the arctic regions has
been formed by direct freezing of the
sea water. But in the summer time
very little of the floating ice is of that
character. It is composed of huge
sheets broken off from the glacial
fringe of North Grant Land, broken
up by contact with other foes and
with the land and driven south under
the impetus of the violent flood tides.
1t is not unusual to see ice there
between eighty and a hundred feet
thick. AS seven-eighths of these heavy
foes are under water one does not

WHY SO WEAK

Kidney Troubles May be Sapping Your Life
Away.-Princeton People Have
Learned This Fact.
When a healthy man or woman
begins to run down without apparent
cause, becomes weak, languid, de-
pressed, suffers backache, headache,
dizzy spells and urinary disorders,
look to the kidneys for the cause of it
all. Keep the kidneys we'll and they
will keep you we'll. Doan's Kidney
Pills cure sick kidneys and keep them
we'll. Here is Princeton testimony to
prove it.
Mrs. Joseph Leathers of Princeton,
MIMI, says: 81 was afflicted for two
or three years with kidney and blad-
der complaint. My back was so lame
that could hardly perform my house
work. My head ached severely and
dizzy spells came on when least ex-
pected. My eyes we're very weak and
my whole system was run down. The
kidney secretions we're irregular in
passage and caused me great annoy
ance. A neighbor finally advised me
to try Doan's Kidney Pills and I pro-
cured box. This remedy proved of
such great benefit that I can con-
scientiously recommend it to other
kidney suffer ers.''
