Canal Indefinitely Closed.

Panama, Oct. 1.-The Panama
Canal will remain closed until all
danger of serious slides in the
Gaillord cut is passed:
Mai. Gen. George w. Goeth-
ais, Governor of the zone, issued
orders to the dredging engineers
to blast away the tops OF the
hills to bring into the channel all
loose dirt and thus permanently
remove the source of the slides.
Gen. Goethals was unable~tQ
say when the canal would again
be in condition for the passage
of ships, but said he would leave
unchanged November LIST as the
date to which the canal has been
officially closed.
Goehals, however, expressed
the opinion that the canal would
be closed much beyond that date.
There would be no effort to
maintain temporary channel
for the use of Il few ships.

BAcKAcHE rs A WARNING.
Butler People Should Not Neg
lect Their Kidneys.

Backache is often nature s
most frequent signal of weakened
kidneys. To cure the pains and
aches, to remove the lameness
when it arises from weakened
kidneys, you must reach the
cause.-the kidneys. If you have
pain through the small of your
back, urinary disorders, head
aches, dizzy spells, or are nerv-
Gus and depressed, start treating
the kidneys with a tested kidney
remedy.
Doan's Kidney Pills have been
proved good and are especially
for weak kidneys. Doan's have
been used in kidney trouble for
over 80 years. Read Butler tes-
timony.
Mrs. w. H. Hupp, 1O7 Broad
way, Butler, says: II had BE-
we're attacks of backache and was
also bothered by pains over my
kidneys, which made me weak
and tired. / got Doan's Kidney
Pills at Clay's Drug Store and
one box brought me prompt re-
lief. Since then, whenever I have
taken Doan's Kidney Pills, they
have benefited me-

PRES. WILSON 70 MARRY
Engagement Of the President to
Mrs. Norman Calf
Announced.

Washington, Oct. Wood
row Wilson, president Of the
United States, announced last
night his engagement to Mrs.
Norman Calf Of Washington.
The date of the wedding has
not been fixed but it will probab-
" will take place in December ut
the home Of the bride elect.
Mrs. Gait is the widow OF a
well known business man Of
Washington who died eight years
ago leaving a jewelry business
that still bears his name. She has
.livedsin Washington since her
marriage in 1896. She is about
80 years old and was Miss Edith
Boiling, born in Wytheville, Va,
where her girlhood was spent,
and where her father, William FL.
Boiling, was prominent law
yer.
The Virginia Boiling family,
of which Mrs. Gait is member,
claims to be direct descendants
of the Indian Princess Pocahon-
tas. The founder Of the Boiling
family came to Virginia in 1850
following the days of the Stewart
Kings.
One of the most interesting
facts about the engagement, in
deed, as told by friends, is that
the president daughters should
have chosen Mrs. Gait for their
admiration and friendship before
their father did.
