there is difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call 1t,
because they can't control urination.
While it is extremely annoying and
sometimes very painful, this is really
one of the most simple ailments to
overcome. Get about four ounces of

Will Onnose President.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator
Oscar Underwood, author of the IN
derwood tariff bill. today announced
his opposition to President Wilson'S
plan for a tariff commission. He in
t;mated his opposition would be ac-
tive.
Denying he considered the presi-
dents plan an attack on his revenue
measures, he SAID he thought there
was plenty of government machinery
now to gather such information as the
president has said he wants.
"The foreign and domestic com
merce bureau" said Underwood, "and
the census department. now gather
practically every pertinent and i'm
portant economic fact to be had in
the country. The foreign commerce
bureau. too, collects data as to the
commercial methods Of other nations.
Together, these two bureaus, both in
the commerce department, have made
a special study or alleged dumping by
other countries, Of their products in
the United States.
THE federal trade commission to n
decree has done the same kind Of
work. Any further commission or
study would simply be duplication"
Underwood said circumstances
would dictate" how determined his op-
position would be.

Chief Of Police Arrests Man Who
Later Uncovers One Of
the Missing
Articles.
SOME DETECTIVE WORK
J. w. Page Arrested for Robbery
Father OF Boy Who Was
Arrested Last
Week.

Both motors which were stolen a
week or two ago from the Burke Bros
confectionery store at 6lS Main
street, have been recovered.
One was secured after q neat piece
of detective work; the other, or what
was left of it, turned up unexpectedly.
John M. Kenney, chief of police, last
night arrested J. W. Page for the
robbery and later he revealed to the
police the temporary hiding place Of
one Of the motors which happened to
be in the alley at the rear Of the
home Of Chief Kenney at 612 Concert
street.
Chief Kenney feels confident that
with the arrest of j. w. Page he has
finally cleared up the mystery of the
robbery and put his hands on the
right party. Page is the father of
John Page, the eighteen-year-old boy
who was last week sentenced to
year in the county jail for the theft
Of some miscellaneous articles from
Burke Bros store. He, with Robert
Ryland, who was sentenced but
parolcd, were arrested for breaking
and entering the store and taking
some copper candy kettles which
later turned up in junk shop,
The kettles had now been found.
but the two motors, valued at 5000.
had not been recovered and although
they were found missing at the same
time as the kettles, the two boys
| could not be implicated in the matter.
| Realizing that an offer of a reward
| might bring out the culprit, Chief
Kenney persuaded R. e. Burke, pro-
prietor of the store, to offer SI5 for
| the return of the motors, knowing
| that this would more likely bring re-
suits than if the police offered it.
The bait worked and in a short
| time arrangements were made, the
police say, by Page to deliver one OF
the motors at the house OF Mr.. Burke
on South Seventh street, just across
the alley from the Masonic temple.
| Last night Chief Kenney was on
| the lookout for the parties implicated.
BY accident he met Sheriff Scott. who
had also been called on the case.
Eback of the Elks building. The sheriff
said that he had just seen two men
| in the vicinity of the Elks building.
| With the trail hot, the sheriff secuted
around to Seventh street and Chief
Kenney started up the alley between
| Blondeau and Concert and had just
reached the rear of Burke's residence
when two men ran into his arms and
he arrested them. A minute later
Sheriff Scott with officer Tisue en-
tered the alley from the Seventh
street entrance.
Page was one Of the two taken and
he was the one wanted. He --nally
uncovered one Of the motors from
under an ash pile in the alley. ne
confessed that it had also been hid
den in a dirt pile near Sinton's barn
for some time.
And now comes the queer end of
the story. There was still another
motor to be accounted for. But about
! the time all the above was happening,
| OLIVER LaFeber was uncovering the
missing motor from sewer at the
foot of Bank street. This had been
demolished for the copper and brass
, on it.
