Locomotive Engineer Has
Remarkable Experience.

I have been thinking that word from
me would benefit. those who ma be
suffering as I was before / began TAX
ing your Swamp-Roct, the great i4ney
liver and bladder remedy. I am a loco
motive engineer, employed on the Ty-
ROM and Cleariel1 branch OF the
Pennsylvania railroad. Three years ago
I was afflicted with kidney and bladder
trouble so bad that I was compelled
10 lay off duty from my engine and
1as in the care of two doctors. How
ever. their medicine did not benefit me.
One day / noticed your advertisement,
70 send name and address for a sample
bottle Of Swanp-Root. At this time
my trouble had reached such a serious
stage that 1t was with great difficulty
that / could urinate. 1 sent for the
sample bottle and n three days re-
ceived a small bottle of Swamp-Root,
which / took according TO directions,
and by the time l had taken the con-
tents l could pass water more freely.
1 was SO pleased with my experiment
that I sent my wife to the drug store
of ". H. Milick, Phillipsburg, Pa, and
secured a ~one-dollar bottle. l con-
tinued taking Or. Kilmer's swamp Root
until I was entirely cured. Now when
ever / feel any pain or soreness after
being exposed to bad weather or hard
work / lake a dose or two OF Swamp
Root. / cannot recommend this remedy
too highly, especially to brother en-
sineers who are more or less troubled
with their kidneys (nlore than any
ether class OF men).

LESCHz|NER IS
GRANTED WRIT
Of CERT|ORARI
Proceedings in Shade Tree Case
May Be Reviewed in
Higher Court.

Chief Justice William S, Gummere
tiorari to S%palding Frazer, OF Riker a
Riker's office, ordering a review of the
proceedings brought by Carl Bann-
wart, secretary of the shade Tree
Commission, against Siegfried Lesch-
liner, the real estate man, who was
hned $50 in the First Criminal Court
by Judge SIMON Hahn a week ago
Friday.
The police court trouble grew out OF
the action of Leschziner in cutting
down q tree in front of his property
at the corner of Broad and Hill streets,
where he is erecting a new building
to be called Symphony Hall.
Leschziner applied Tor permission to
remove the shade tree and when it
was refused took an X and starred
to cut it down himself. He was ar
rested and later nae workmen EN-
ployed by him pull the tree out by
the roots n into the excavation made
for the building.
After a long hearing the following
morning Judge Hahn found him guilty
of violating a city ordinance and fined
IA FoVF IN 0CSNAlHAAACt paul oA
nouncing that he would carry the case
higher.
Attacks Right OF Magistrate.
Before the chief justice this morn
ing Mr.. Frazer attacked the right of
the committing magistrate, Judge
Hahn, to impose a fine under the ordi-
nance, claiming that the statute under
which the ordinance creating the
Shade Tree Commission was passed
did not give the commission the right
to designate police magistrates as the
court to infict ines or Imprisonment
on violators of the ordinance.
It was on this content on that Chief
Justice Gummere granted the writ of
certiorari. Several other objections
were made to the polio court conv.c-
ton by Mr.. Fraser, but, after a con-
ference with { y Attorney Herbert
Boggs, they were dismissed and the
one plea used to bring the matter up
for review.
Mr.. Leschziner was not In the court
room at any time during the ar9u-
ments for the granting of the writ.

BUTTERICK co,
 JOINS RANKS OF
 UNION CONCERNS

Union men in this city will be in terested to learn that the Butterick Publishing company, so long at odds with union labor. has come uncondi- tionally to the side of the union men and the big printing plants in the control of this concern will hence forth be union.
 The Butterick Publishing company is one of the biggest publishing firms in the world, and has just added to its already large list of periodicals by securing the control of Everybodys Magazine. The acquisition of such a big firm is a great boost for union ism. At one time in the past the Butterick company was one of the bitterest foes of organized labor.
 Negotiations were brought about between local and International Typo graphical unions and the Butterjck company with the result of a full agreement, which henceforth places the Butterick publicatio 5 upon the fair list
 Pre3ident James Lynch of the In- ternational Typographical union is receiving general ccmmendation throughout the country for his at the plants of the Chicago EXamin- CT and Chicago Evening American. The International union has an agree ment with these papers, through the Publishers association. The local union in Chicago declared a strike be- cause of a minor grievance, but President. Lynch ordered the men back to work in order to sustain the contract. The action is very gener- ally endorsed by union men, as show ing that union labor lives up to it's contra cts.

HENRY CLEWS SAYS THAT " SOCIALISM IS NOTHING BUT MENTAL OBSESSIOA

Declaring that competition, instead of being the wasteful process that Socialists brand it, 1t is the very heart and soul of the nations success, Hen Try Cews a financier of prominence, addressed the Teachers Association of Bridgeport at the High school last night. A large audience, was pres ent to hear the address.
 MT. Clews attacked the Socialist doc trines from every standpoint, and de- clared that the United States, of all countries, is the least fitted for So- cialism. He said that Socialism to him seems to be an obsession of the brain.
 He declared that Socialism isn't scientific; because it disregards a fact that to him seems obviously scientific-that competition is neces- sary. Then Socialism isn't moral. de- clared the speaker 'ibecause it in- tends to rob Peter to pay Paul' which is highly immoral. In conclu- sion, Mr. Clews said:
 "A society in which all human be- ings do right, simply because it is right, cannot exist unless human na- ture is recast and reconstructed.

 Carle is just as funny as ever. His funniest streak last night was during the second act, when he gave an imitation of an awkward man trying to be graceful, and kept the audience in convulsions for ten minutes. Will Philbrick. an old vaudeville favorite. was scarcely second to Carle in the finn of the evening. The company throughout was excellent, the play amusing and the whole afforded a delightful evenings entertainment.

New York; August 16.-Admiral Togo left New York for Boston late this after noon. After nearly week spent in sightseeing here the day found him rather fatigued. He spent the greater portion of the afternoon at Governors Island as the guest of Maj. Gen. Fred erick D. Grant, and concluded his stay with a four-mile automobile run up Broadway from the Battery to his hotel
 Broadway and the rush-hour crowds gave the proper setting for the run. Pre- ceded by four motorcycle policemen, shrieking a brazen alarm, the admiral and his party, in two automobiles, thread ed traffic stilled by patrolmen on post without incident. To show the perfect police control of the situation, the chauf- feurs swung their cars from curb to curb at intervals, as they sped over the thor oughfare. The little warrior was de- lighted. When the cars stopped at his hotel he invited the four motorcycled pluecoats to his room and personally thanked each one, touching palms with all In warm handshake.
 In his final interview with newspaper reporters the admiral said:
 Your country is wonderful but the most striking thing of all is the industry and enterprise of the people,
