NO INDICTMENT AGAINST
MIDDLETOWN CONSTABLE

When the petit jury reported for
duty in Superior Court today there
were no cases ready for trial and
the jurors were discharged until to-
morrow morning.
An erroneous report had been cir
culated that Constable Harry II. Hill
yard, OF Middletown. was under in
dictment for assault and battery. It
is true that he had been arrested in
connection with an alleged assault
but the case was not presented to the
grand jury. Consequently there was
no indictment found by the grand
jury against him.
The trouble arose over the arrest
of a colored man for being intoxi-

MANY CASES Of
RHEUMATISM NOW
Says We Must Keep Feet Dry,
Avoid Exposure and
Eat Less Meat.

stay Off the damp ground, avoid eX-
posure, keep feet dry, eat less meat
drink lots of water and above all take
a spoonful of salts occasionally to keen
down uric acid.
rheumatism is caused by poisonous
toxin, called uric acid, which is gene
rated in the bowels and absorbed into
the blood. 1t is the function of the
kidneys to filter this acid from the
blood and cast it out in the urine. The
pores of the skin are also a means of
freeing the blood of this impurity. In
damp and chilly, cold weather the skin
pores are closed, thus forcing the kid
neys TO do double work, they become
weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate
this uric acid which keeps accumulat-
ing and circulating through the sys-
tenn, eventually settling in the joints
and muscles causing stiffness, soreness
and pain called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put a TABLESPOON
ful in a glass of water and drink be-
fore breakfast each morning for a
week. This is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys TO
normal action, thus Kidding the blood
of these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject 10
rheumatism. Here you have a pleas
ant, effervescent Whitewater drinl,
which overcomes uric acid and Is bene-
ficial to your kidneys as well.-Adver-

Water Dept. Spends
100000 on Various
City improvements

City Commissioner Gorgas has open
ed an interesting question in his propo-
sition to utilize the increasing surplus
of the city Water Department for a re-
duction of taxation. He shows that
during the last five or six years there
has been expended out of the funds
Of the Water Department for extraordi-
nary uses more than S300,000-for the
purchase of the private water rights in
the Thirteenth Ward, the construction
OF the high pressure reservoir. the lay
ing of important mains in Front and
Market streets, the building of the
plaza wall at the pumping station, and
other necessary improvements.
1t appears from the statements of Mr..
Gorgas that the actual profits of the
Water Department are about 100000 a
year. and he takes the position that
some way should be found by which
this surplus of public moneys sshall be
diverted to general uses so that the
taxes of the people may be correspond
ingly reduced.
1t has always been held that the
revenues of the Water Department can
be used only for the purposes of the
department, but the superintendent of
Finance and Accounts believes neces-
sary legislation could be enacted so
that the large profits of the department.
might be made available for the gem
eral expenses of the city.

Storm Blinds Middle West
BY Associated Press

bN fSSOCfdEed EfcSS
Chicago, Jan. 2. - Snow, rain and
sleet over a large area of the Middle
West, centering over Southeastern
but extending in all directions caused
much delay in train service to-day
and hampered telegraph and tele-
phone companies.
Further west the conditions were
aggravated by intense cold. Omaha
reported eight degrees below zero.
Many of the telegraph and telephone
throughout Illinois, Iowa and Missouri
much trouble was reported by line
men. Denver was reached by a
circuitous route.
Trains reached Chicago from the
west from an hour to two hours late.
In the city snow and sleet hampered
the surface and elevated lines.
Forecast of decidedly colder wealth
er was made by the weather bureau
the prediction being that the Arkansas
storm would spread northeastward
and be followed by cold and north
west gales bringing temperatures of
from 80 to 40 degrees below zero over
most of the Northwestern States.
The northwestern cold wave was
said by the Weather Bureau to be
the most severe in recent years with
the mercury standing at 80 to 4S
degrees below zero over most of the
Dakotas and in the northern Rocky
mountain regions.
Temperature to 10 degrees below
zero was predicted for the Chicago
district tonight.
Easterward of the Mississippi
temperatures were abnormally high,
ranging from fifteen to 80 degrees
above the seasonable average, but
these districts are expected to feel the
effect of the storm later in the week.
Snow and rain are predicted for to-
night and Thursday as the storm
moves northeastward and a severe
cold wave, the Weather Bureau says,
may be expected through the upper
lake region, the lower Ohio Valley
and the Lower Mississippi Valley to-
night and Thursday and in the east
Gulf States Thursday and Thursday
night. BY Thursday night and Fri
day it is probable the dold wave will
extend to the Atlantic coast.
