Pure Food Expert Exonerated on Con

Pure Food Expert Exonerated on Con
 spiracy Charge.
 pr. Harvey W. Wiley is held mot guilty" of conspiracy to evade the law in a report filed with the house by the committee which conducted an investi- gation last August into the charges upon which President Taft was asked to dis miss the chief chemist from the govern ment service. The committee not only absOlves pr. Wiley from criticism for the employment of Dr. H. H. Rusby as a government expert at a technical rate of $2O per day. but it attacks in measured terms the whole administra- tion of the national pure food law and demands of congress action to change the method in the department of agri- culture by which the law is now ap- piled.
 The investigation arose from the charges made in the agricultural de partment that Dr. Wiley, pr. W. D. Bibelow and Dr. L., F. Kebler. all of the bureau of chemistry, had secretly arranged with pr. H. Fl. Rusby so that the latter need work only eighty days in the year for an annual salary of S1,6OO. This was declared to be a de nberate evasion of the established lim- it oF$9 per day.

 Harahan, Melcher. Peirce and Wright were asleep In their state rooms aboard MT. Melcher's private car.
 Only one occupant of the private car, MT. Melcher's secretary, escaped.

 Cries of more than a score of in- jured arose above the hissing of steam from the splintered mass of wreckage. Trainmen fought desperately to reach those who had been in Vice President Melcher's car.
 The engineer and fireman of the Him. ited, only slightly injured, were re- moved from the wreckage first. While taking them out rescuers stumbled on the bodies of MT. Harahan and Mir. Melcher. The bodies of Peirce and Wright were found a few minutes later. All had been caught in their berths without chance of escape.
 The limited. which does not stop at Kinmundy. was running half an hour behind time at high speed

IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS

Don't Mistake the Cause of Your Troubles. A Canaan Citizen Gives Valuable Hint.
 Many people never suspect their kidneys. If suffering from & lame, weak or aching back they think that it is only 8 muscular weakness when urinary trouble sets in they think it will soon correct itself. And so it is with ali the other symptoms of kidney disorders. That is just where the danger lies. You must cure these troubles or they may lead to
 Bright's disease. The best remedy to use for ills which are caused by weak or diseased kidneys is Doan's Kidney Pills. Read the experience of a resident of Canaan who has tested Doan's.
 s. Drum. s. Main St., Canaan, Conn, says: II recommend Doan's Kidney Pills whenever have the opportunity. My back and kidneys caused me a great deal of trouble. The kidney secretions were irregular in passage, causing me much annoyance and suffered from pains through my back and sides. Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at ThurlouRh's s Drug Store, drove away the pains and regulated the passages of the kidney secretions."
