Many a Bismarck Citizen Knows How
Sure They Are.
Nothing uncertain about the work
of Doan's Kidney Pills in Bismarck.
There is plenty Of positive proof Of
this in the testimony Of citizens. Such
evidence should convince the most
skeptical doubter. Read the follow
ing statement:
j. r. Williams, PIP South Sixth
street, Bismarck, N. D., says: II
know that Doan's Kidney Pills are
a reliable kidney medicine. For six
weeks or more, I had constant, dull
ache in the small Of my back and

sible for me to move. l was tired

cured of a similar complaint by
Doan's Kidney Pills, advised me to
try them and did 30, getting my

Net shortage revealed by re-
port MISUNDERSTANDING. $36O.9&
: J. D. Bren's apparent shortage az
found by F. N. Stacy, deputy public
examiner, and J. o. Cederberg, assist.
ant public examiner, assuming Bren
was robbed of $13,S26.79 on June q
only $360.98, and friends have offered
to make UP the amount.
Another Apparent Shortage.
The startling feature of Mr.. Stacy's
report is the assertion that evidence
Of an apparent shortage in the con-
tingent fund has been found. In this
connection he recommends a further
investigation, to cover, probably, an
extended period. The apparent short
age, which Is struck between a state
ment from the St. Anthony Falls bank
and Mr.. Bren's figures, amounts, Mr..
Stacy says in his report, to more than
$4,000.
II want to make it clear" said Mr..
Stacy, that this report is only pre-
liminary. Next week, four account
ants win start an investigation which
will require at least month. Two
men from the public examiners Office
Will set to work on the university
books and accounts representing the
university, and an accountant repre-
senting the bonding company"
The state, however, will not admit
that this Is the absolute shortage.
Last evening, after the report had
been made out, an apparent shortage
was found in the contingent fund car
ried by Mr.. Bren in the St. Anthony
Falls bank, and after Mr.. Stacy is ex-
amined by the Hennepin county grand
jury, which now is considering the
charges of alleged embezzlement of
state funds against Mr.. Bren, he will
Immediately delve into this new de-
partment.

portionment for the school year Of
1910 1911 up to $7.4S, as compared
with $10.5O for last year. The failure
of so many people to pay the inter-
est on the leased school lands de-
tracted materially from the amount
of the school fund this year and it
is expected that in another year with
good crop this fall, that next years
apportionment will partially make up
for the deficiency of the year just
ended.

Nc ANNEXATION.

Representative Carlin declared 10
Washington on Saturday that there
was no chance for the passage OF the
bill introduced By Representative
Hayes. OF California, to ccde back to
the District OF Columbia 4 portion OF
Alexandria. and Alexandria county. .
This plan was agtated last year,
said Mr.. Carlin, but it was abandoned
by President Taft in public speech,
Mr.. Hayes evidently has overlooked
that fact. Tie Virginia delegation IN
tie House feels no anxiety about tl'r
matter and there is no chance Tor the
bill to become a law since The president
and other SPONSORS for The plan have
long ago abandoned the project.
Il would oppose the measure as
GINA delegation, but We do not antIci-
pate that it will ever get beyond the
comulittee to which II is retrrred.
Representative CarIin's opinion 10
shared by other Eirgnans IN The
House. There is said to lie prob
ability that some time the government
may acquire small strip Of land on
this side Of the Potomac to be used fol

chase and will affect only small

EASTER.

Yesterday was Easter Sunday, the
most gladstone day in the church cal
endar, as it commentaries the resur-
rection Of the crucied Lord. The day
broke clear and bright, but with stiff
northwest breeze which followed gale
which prevailed during part Of the pre-
yious night. Later in the morning
there were floating clouds in the sky,
while the temperature remained too low
for Easter but in the afternoon the tenn
perature moderated, the skies were
without a cloud and everyone enjoyed
the bright and bracing weather,
The young ladies, with their new
Easter hats and suits were out IN force
as were also the young men and the
spring styles were greatly admired by
those who wore them and looked upon
with envy by those who had them not.
The churches we're all well attended,
and the musical programmes heretofore
published were excellently rendered
rejecting much credit on the several
choirs and giving much pleasure to
the congregations. The services were
generally in accordance with the day
and the risen Saviour was the subject
OF most Of the sermons. AT St. Paul's
Church Bishop Gibson of the Episcopal
Diocese OF Virginia confirmed a class Of
seven, and at night he also confirmed a
class Of seven at Grace Church. The
services in the other churches were ac-
co.ding to Saturdays announcement.

EASTER MONDAY.

The weather had moderated consid-
erably this morning, and many plans
were made both by old and young to
spend the day on the outskirts OF the
city and at rural retreats rolling eggs
and picknicking. but toward moon the
skies become overcast and light rain
fell. This dampened the ardor OF many,
but the skies soon cleared and the feS-
tivities of the day we're carried out. The
scholars Of the public schools hal bolt
iav. aud many others OF the younger
generation have enjoyed days inter.
mission from their labors. Faster
Monday (harbpger OF spring. is day
