M abstract OF the property. the

s. the Chamberlain, Harrington, Cort
,ircuit, to Jesse b. Baker, is complet-
d, unless a decided Jaw in the title
4 discovered the deal will be closed
Ibis evening. No price has been made
public.
Mr. Baker said this afternoon, in q
discussion of the proposition that the
management would devolve upon @. H.
nodge who will have complete charge
Il the house. but both Mr.. Dodge and
himself would pass upon the bookings

attractions booked are up to the
+ ytandard OF excellence that the new
management will demand.
I'VE are going to see that the pat

attractions, as has been the case many
times in the past said Mr.. Baker,
today. s'If necessary, one of us will

fore 1t is booked here, in order to in

OGRE class will be permitted to give a

The house will be open every night
for picture shows except when reg
ular performance is booked. Matinees
will probably be discontinued for the
summer in order to allow workmen,
who will make needed repairs, to work
throughout the day. 1t Is thought that
this can be accomplished without
closing the theatre entirely. The
house will be upholstered, rearrang-
ed and redecorated atscnce and plans
are now IN the new owners hands for
the complete remodeling of the house,
increasing the seating capacity and
enlarging the stage. These plans will
be carried out >as soon as the house
shows sufficient increase in patron
age to warrant the outlay Of money
that these plans would necessarily
create. AT the present time, however,

II IS said that, for the present, the

but decided innovation is being

rical season, which will be the latter

That Mr.. Baker will give Keokuk

been needed is now assured. His ex,

TO AILING WOMEN.
A Little Sound Advice Will Help Man,
A Sufferer in Union.

No woman cpn be healthy and well
II the kidneys are sick. Poisons that
pass of in the secretions when the
kidneys are well, are retained In the
body when the kidneys are sick. Kid
neys and bladder become inflame1
and swollen and worse troubles quick
ly follow. This Is often the true
cause OF bearing down pains, lame
ness, backache, etc. Uric poisoning
also causes headaches, dizzy spells,
languor, nervousness and rheumatic
pain.
When suffering so, try Doan's Kid
ney pills, a remedy that has cured
thousands of such cases. You will get
better as the Kidneys get better and
health will return when the kidneys
are well. Let Union woman tel!
you about Doan's Kidney Pills.
Mrs. Alice Ingram, IL Herndon s..
Union, 8. c., says: 'T suffered from
backache and weak kidneys and waa

world Of good and I am therefore
pleased to recommend them to every

Mt. Tabor, March 12.-Our flag, our
beautiful flag, has been marred by
some rude hand. It was tampered
with three times. Tho first time q
corner was cut of, the second time
the hem was cut OF, and the third
time 1t was tied into knots. The last
time it was bothered foot prints and
a ladder. track was found by the aide
Of the house. Some are inclined to
think the wind did It, but the major
ity Of the people say that two hu-
man hands did it. The wind of Ia
bor must be awful smart If It can cut
q double stitched hem OF of q new
flag and then tie the strips into
knots.
1t would have been smart for the
wind, but it was not the wind. The
fellow who did it wasn't very smart,
as he cut the hem on and threw the
pieces down where the teacher and
pupils could pick them up the next
morning. and he had better be very
smart If he don't want to be caught
up with for the patriotic feeling Of
the people are aroused. The fellow
who would cut his country's flag is
lower down than a horse thief or a
house burner and you know how that
is. These assertions have been made
and the man who would do that would
shoot you in the back, and "a fellow
who is that low down would steal the
pewter of Of dead mans eyes," and
many more. II the fellow is caught
Uncle Sam might handle him.
Tabor school is as determined they
will have a good flag as that treach-
: erous hand is they shall not, 80 get
your knife good and sharp. old Trai-
tor. for we are going to raise another
flag and IL necessary there will be
another.

Our Young People.

With the approach of fall and the
closinng Of outdoor places of recrea-
ton comes a retreat to the places
of amusement in the city. And with
this change Of case comes a new evil.
Young people VINO have been accug-
toned to spending their evenings in
the parks are now found in the club
rooms and on the street corners. 1t
is a pitiable sight to stand on the
corner of some uptown streets and
watch the young people loiter around.
Girls Of tender years and boys in
their teens can be seen in droves 60
ing to and fro and huddled on the
.street corners in aimless gossip. Lit
tie children are also seen at late
hours Of night running at will.
What can the parents of these
young people hope for them, and why
should they complain when they
find their children in the clutches
of the law? It is hard for grown
people to keep themselves in the
paths of r%ectitude. and it cannot be
expected that the children and young
misses and lads can do 80 who dc
not realize the dangers in the paths
they are frequenting.

NEGRO Voters.

The fall of 1912 will long be re-
membered in the history of this ma
ton for its political strenuosity.
There has been no time in this coun-
try when the Negro voter had the
opportunity to play such an impor-
tant part in the policy of the nation.
The professional politicians are labor
ing night and day to carry a point.
Every fellow is presenting the bright
side of his view of the matter; and
there is some truth in the platforms
of all parties. This campaign will
be remembered as an independent
crusade. No M is able to predict at
this stage what party will succeed.
1t looks bright one day for this party
and the next day it looks bright for
the other; but the reports in newspa-
pers do not express always the senti-
ment of the voters.
The first great duty the Negro owes
to his country in this crisis is to pre-
pare himself to exercise his franchise
right, whatever the qualifications are.
Every man should pay his taxes, reg
lister, get his receipt for his registra-
ton and poll taxes and put them
away where he can find them on the
morning of the 5th day Of November;
and then he should study the many
questions that are being discussed by
different parties. He should lose
sight of the man; no difference who
started the party, for those who were
the fathers of a party may all be II
the great beyond, and those men whC
are asking to be the administrators o
government may be as far from thu
principles laid down by the early ia
theirs as the east is from the west
Conditions are not now what the,
were fifty years ago, and it is tn
present day condition that should b
given consideration. 1t is bein
preached to Negroes that the republ
can party is his ship and that all oil
er parties are a raging sea to hin
This is all false and does not d.
[ serve a minutes consideration. Fc
|. if the republican party is a ship fit
years old, it may be moth eaten no
} and unable to stand the great storm
raging upon the political sea-. Whi
7 this nation wants is a modern, wei
constructed ship, made to meet tt
+ twentieth century conditions, and
$ party that is supporting a platfor.
based upon surh principles as wi
best serve the nation.
