ISIT "JUST A COLD?"
3isbee People Should Ask Themselves
 This Question.

Don't say: Its just a cold
 It may turn into backache, rheum- atic aches, achy joints
 Or other serious sickness that comes from weak kidneys.
 Colds are due to congestion.
 Congestion makes the kidneys over work to filter the blood.
 Colds often leave the kidneys weak. First break the cold;
 Then use DJan's Kidney Pills to avert the kidney dangers.
 Let this Risbee resident tell you about them.
 G. NJ. Goodhue, Bisbee, says: My back ached as badly at night as dur ng the day and I got up il the morn ing feeling lame and stiff. Colds set lied in my kidneys and made the trouble worse.

misdemeanor cases can be tried until the panel is filled. No special venires will be called until all of the names in the drawn box have been exhausted. There were two hundred names placed in the box, as required by law, on the first of January. Of this number there have now been drawn 106. It will take three Or four more drawings to fill up the panel and in the meantime the county is being put to an un- necessary expense. The law should be amended so that the court could use its descretion in fixing the num- Der of jurors to be allowed on the panel and allowing the placing Of more than two hundred in the box at the first of the year. Some complaint was made that the calling of special venires placed too much power in the hands of the sheriff. but following the present law is not giving any satisfac- ton and is costing the county several thousands of dollars.
 To Be Heard.
 The injunction case of William Truax against the Bisbee Cooks and Walters Union is set for a heairng tomorrow in the superior court. The former application was denied by the court but the present case, it is said, raises a number of new points that were not mentioned in the former ap- plication.

New Drive Gains Thousands Of Yards After Terrific Fighting Around Village Of Ovillers
RUSSIAN OFFENSIVE
 NOW 300 MILES WIDE
Allies Progress Fails To Dis tract Germans Fight For Verdun, As Assaults Fol low Endlessly
(ey Review Leased Wire.)

LONDON, July 7.-The British have resumed their sledgehammer blows against the German lines in the Somme sector and after day oi ter rife fighting have carried the German trenches at three points along the front
 Latest reports from British head quarters say ;hat fierce fighting is continuing.
 The British gains, while not re sulting in any substantial gains, are characterized by the war office as i'm portant from a tactical viewpoint. The greatest success was east of La Bois- elle, where they captured German trenches in extent of nearly 2OOC yards and to a depth of 500 yards This gain is in addition to 100 yards of trenches taken by assault Thursday night.
 Fiercest Struggle.
 The bitterest fighting of the day occurred on the center of the line oi attack about two villages of Ovillers and Cantalmaiseon. A British brigade forced it's way into Ovillers and en t-d8eu III d utSptIdtt SUI ueSiC Ao- PCo session of the village.
 At Cantalmaison a division of the orussian guards was hurled into the fight to check the British advance after the village had been carried by assault. Contalmaison was recaptured but 800 prisoners were left in the hands of the British.
 On the French end of the Somme sector there was a lull in the fighting The French official report does not even mention the usual artillery duels which fill the intervals between in fantry assaults.
 Verdun CT Bust.
 The violence of the British offensive failed. however, @ divert the atten ton of the Germans from their des perate efforts to capture Verdun. As sault after assault was delivered against the French lines in the sorely battered Thiaumont region, but ac cording b Paris, all were in vain.
 Russian Offensive Great.

 The case of the State vs. William Gill. was dismissed on motion of the county attorney on account of the in- sufiiciency of the evidence, in view of the fact that the jurors believe in the personal use priviledge.
 Jury Law a Failure.
 The present jury law is a failure and is costing the county considerable money daily The law allows only fifty names to be drawn on the panel and with the names drawn from the register of two years ago it is almost impossible to fill the panel. Court started on the 26th of June and there were but twenty of the fifty to report for duty and were availavle. On that day an order was made for the draw ing of thirty more r0 report on the 9th inst. On that day there were eleven reported for duty and some were excused so that the panel then showed but twenty four Another drawing was made for twenty six more to report on Monday next and advices received are to the effect that about half of that number will be found, so that another drawing win have to be made on Monday to fill up the panel. There can be Ho felony cases tried until panel is secured. A case was started with twenty four in the box but one of the jurors dis qualified and the case had to be post poned until a later day.
