EAT LESS MEAT
If BACK HURTS
TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS TO
FLUSH KIDNEYS IF BLADDER
BOTHERS YOU,

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a well-known authority
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts
of distress. particularly backache and
misery in the kidney region; rheumatic
twinges, severe headaches, acid stom-
ach, constipation, torpid liver, sleep
lessness, bladder and urinary irrita-
ton.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right or if bladder
bothers you. get about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take teaspoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid
OF grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for gen.
erations to flush clogged kidneys and
stimulate them to normal activity; also
TO neutraiize the acids IL the urine go
1t no longer irritates, thus ending blad-
der disorders
Jad Salts can not injure anyone:
makes delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions Of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.-Adv.

TRANSIENT SALESMAN SUED
MERCHANT FOR FALSE ARREST
Attempt to Enforce Town Tariff
Against ltinerants at Buffalo Center
Results in Damage Suit for $500
Jury Refuses to Assess Damages -
Small Towns Like Protection.

Forest City, Oct. S.-The case OF
J. Nelson, suing c. ]. Pritchard. a
merchant of Buffalo Center, for $4,000
COR malicious prosecution and false
imprisonment was decided in favor Of
the defense.
The case turned up in the little town
OF Buffalo Center. when j. Nelson. a
transient salesman Of tailored suits
ran up against the home protection
policy which is embraced in the NUM-
cipal regulations of all towns and cit
les.
Nelson takes orders for tailored
suits, has them manufactured, and re-
turns to his customer to see if every
thing is all right. No one claimed he
was engaged in anything but legiti-
mate trade.
1t happened this small community
had a tariff wall surrounding it's village
which Disseminated against such work.
c. J. Pritchard. local merchant took
the initiative and had Nelson arrested
on information which he signed. Mel
son was thrown in Jail. but the district
court dismissed the case forthwith.
The enraged travelling man inmedi
ately started proceedings to collect
$4,000 damages.
The protective tariff is noted ir al
most every small town, and even tie
strongest democrats appear to like
its antidote against buying away from
home-especially if they happen to be
in business.

Chicago Oct. S.-Partial confirmation
Of the confession of Henry Spencer,
| slayer of Mrs. Mildred Allison Rexroat,
who says he committed twenty-one
murders. was obtained last night by
the Chicago police at Fox Lake, III.
A test of his veracity. suggested BY
Spencer himself, restored the shaken
confidence Of the local detectives in the
stories that have been told by the man
who has painted himself as the arch
flend Of the age.
This test resulted in the discovery
Of hammer with which Spencer de-
clares he killed two persons near Fox
Lake, In the spot where Spencer said
it was hidden.
1t was yesterday afternoon after his
confession had apparently been riddled
to pieces by kilograms from the police
of other cities that Spencer made
suggestion to Captain Halpin
IF you want to find out whether
am telling the truth, I can tell yoa
how" he said, when l was on my way
from Round Lake to Fox Lake this
spring I killed two persons, man
and a woman.
1.-The hammer I used at the time Is
hidden in the cupola of the Illinois
Hotel at Fox Lake. You will find II
there If you search.
There will be no bloodstains on it.
for cleaned tine hammer. but 1T is the
one / used in the murder.
A search for the hammer was made
at the request of Captain Halpit. anu,
according to Constable John j. Walsh,
of Fox Lake, it was found where Spen-
Ger said it was.
The hammer has been .ound and 1t
will be turned over to the Chicago
police thru me today" said Constable
Walsh last night. 1T was discovered
in the little room at the top OF four
flights OF stairs in the cupalo aboye the
Illinois Hotel Spencer had occupied
that room. altho he was known as
Burke when he worked at Fox Lake
There was nothing in the room except
an old bed, but in the ceiling the
boards at one corner hal been pried
away In the hole he had hidden the
hammer
No evidence of the two murders at
Fox Lake has been discovered. The
only thing which seems TO substantiate
the murder story is that decomposed
body was found floating in the lake
this spring. 1t was thought at the time
it was that of a drowned man, but the
police now believe it NAV have been
the body of one of the victims Of the
hammer.
Captain Halpin announced last night
that he would send detectives to Fox
Lake today to make more thorough
investigation Of the stories that have
been told by Spencer. They will ask
for the hammer found in the cupola
Of the Illinois Hotel.
Captain Halpin is still convinced
that Spencer's confession Is genuine.
From IS to so per cent of what
Spencer has told me is the truth" he
said. THE rest of it is the result OF
an imagination that has been slim
ulated by drugs trying to recall what
a clouded brain has forgotten"

BLACKS eEsIEeE VILLAGE.
Mob at Romeo, Ill.,, Threatens Whites
Leader Killed BY Constable.

Joliet. ILL.,, Oct S-One negro was
killed. the village jail was wrecked.
and a serious race riot narrowly
averted late yesterday at Romeo. eight
miles north of Joliet. The arrival Of
"a big corps of deputy sheriffs from
Joliet. sent in answer to the appeal af
Mayor Edward, Swanson, of Romeo,
was all that saved part of the white
population from massacre.
One hundred blacks had armc.
themselves and were threatening t
butcher all the-whtes when the depu
ties whirled into town in automobiles
carrying rifles and revolvers The.
marched on the jail just after loca
constable had shot down the leader CT
the mob after a desperate hand to han,
struggle for his life.
The negroes had been aroused to
state of frenzy following the arrest o.
Lulu Gibson. a notorious negress, VIII,
ended an all night drunken orgy in {
Romeo saloon by running thru the
town and threatening to kill the first
white man or woman she saw.
The woman, who is former inmate
Of the woman's state penitentiary in
Joliet. where she was imprisoned for
murder after she had killed a negro
several years ago. was arrested by
Constable Richard Farrell, of Romeo
in the morning and locked up in tn
town hall with her 2-eyear- old child.
John Winfield, a negro porter in :,
Joliet saloon, who is said to be the
father of the child, tried to prevent the
arrest of the woman, and said he would
get the constable. In the afternoon
he returned with two negro compan-
ions. The three, armed with railroad
ties and heavy iron bars, beat down
the doors and the front wall Of the
town hall and released the Gibson
woman and the child.
Constable Farrell tried to arrest
Winfield, and was engaged in a hand
to hand fight with the negro, in which
he would probably have been heater
to death. when he was saved by Depu
ty Constable Louis Hansen, VIII
grappled with the assailants.
In desperate struggle which Ell
sued between the two white men ant
the three Infatuated negroes Hansen
shot and instantly killed Winfield. Ths
negro was shot thru the lung whe;
he tried to seize Hansen's revolver.
