WHAT THE DOCTOR KNOWS.
Kidneys Must be Right to Insure Health

Few people realize TO what extent their
health depends upon the condition OF the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases oil
serious illness makes chemical analy-
sis of the patients urine. He knows that
unless the kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure TO follow According ~ health sta
tistlcs, BnghEs Disease, which is really
an advanced form Of kidney trouble,
caused nearly ten thousand deaths in one
year, in The State OF New York alone.
Therefore, if is particularly necessary TO

important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
remarkable success as kidney remedy
is DR.. Kllmer's Swamp-Root, the great
kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
The mild and healing influence Of this
preparation, IN most cases, is soon real

Passenger Train Wrecked.

Passenger train No. 2 OF the Norfolk &
Western Railway, carrying Sleepers from
Roanoke 10 New York, was wrecked
last Monday night about s o'clock, near
Solitude, Va, lonely spot along the
lame river some forty miles north oil
Roanoke. No. 2is one OF the finest and
fastest trains on this road, and is COM
posed of handsome steel cars. 1t was
bowling along at high speed when a
broken rail threw the cars from the track,
wrecking them pretty badly. Two day
coaches and a sleeper, il is reported,
went over an enbankment, and the pas
sengers within them were thrown from
side TO side, many OF them being bruised
and cut by flying glass from the windows.
Three persons were so badly hurt that
they had 10 be taken TO hospital in
Roanoke by a relief train. Wrecking
crews from Shenandoah and Roanoke
were summoned and worked all night
clearing up the wreck. No. 2. which is
due at Shepherdstown at l.36 a. m,
passed through at 7,3O, six hours late.
II is the rarest thing that wreck occurs
on this division OF the Norfolk & Western
Railway, and il is proud boast OF the
officials that no passenger has ever lost
his life in train accident. This accident
seems to have been absolutely unavoid-
able. and is no reflection upon the able
management of the N. & w.

Big Break On the Canal.

One of the worst breaks that has ever
occurred on the Chesapeake & Ohio canal
was that at Big Pool, above Williamsport,
last Thursday morning. A section OF
the towpath about 200 feet long and 80
feet deep went out with rush, and the
immense body OF water known as Big
Pool was drained for the first time in
some Is years. Canal boat No. 81, in
charge OF Captain Levin Benner, OF SharpS-
burg, was passing through the pool when
the break occurred and il was drawn
through the opening and washed out on
a piece OF land between the canal and the
river. II cannot be gotten back, and the
Canal Towage Company, which owned
the boat, has given il TO the owner OF the
land. II was very old boat, OF small
value, and it would not pay TO go TO the
expense OF getting it back in the canal.
Thousands OF fish, including agreat NUM-
Der OF very large carp, were lett in the
bottom of the pool, and many OF these
were caught by the people OF the neigh
borhood. Some fine bass, catfish, suck
ers and other fish were also taken, and 1t
is said that many hundreds died as the
waters left them in shallow places. In
the bottom OF the pool the stumpS OF trees
are noticed that have been perfectly pre-
served ever since the canal was built.
They have been constantly submerged,
and so were not subject TO decay. A
large force OF men is busIly engaged in
repairing the break, but il is heavy
piece OF work and navigation will not be
resumed for three or four weeks.

Smallpox Patient Causes Trouble.

Russell Sites, young man OF HagerS-
town who has bad case OF smallpox,
created something of sensation last
Sunday. He visited his father in Cham
bersburg, going to that place on Cum
berland Valley train. Arrived at Cham
bersburg, he ale breakfast with the family,
then Strolled down street, where he met
number OF friends and aifably shook
hands with them all. Later he went 10
see physician, who discovered that he
was broken out with smallpox. SiteS's
father had in the meantime gone TO the
Methodist Sunday school, where he had
handed out books 10 hundred or more
persons. When the fact that the young
man had the smallpox was made known
there was mild sort of panic. The
church service was ended and all who had
come in contact with the elder Sites were
fumigated ard Yaccinated, while those
who had been near TO the young man
took every precauion 10 prevent conta
gion. The railway coach was fumigated
and the passengers were hunted up and
diSnfected. Sites is now in the pest

Brother Kills Brother.

Another dreadful tragedy, directly
traceable to whiskey, was enacted in
Martinsburg last Saturday, and as the
sad result Frank Paulding, bright and
talented young man, lies in his grave,
his brother, John 7. Paulding, Jr., oc-
cupies felon's cell, and family is plung-
ed into the deepest grief. Both young
men were SONS of John T. Paulding, ST.,
prominent retired business man OF Mar
tinsburg. John, who is % years old, was
Jealous of his brother Frank, aged 25.
Some time ago Frank asked for and re-
ceived from his father $500 in order that
he could attend a Philadelphia art school
and develop his talent as an artist. John
then demanded the same amount to spend,
which was refused by his father. The
younger brother from that time nursed
spirit of jealousy, which was increased
when he drank liquor. Last Saturday he
was drinking again, il is said. The two
brothers were in the stable at their home,
when John began TO quarrel with his
brother. He drew revolver, and despite
apiteous plea, "don't shoot, don't shootP'
he deliberately fired two bullets into
Franks body. The first the family knew
OF The tragedy was when Frank, bleeding
from his wounds, reeled into the house,
clutching the bloody revolver which he
had wrested from his brother. Ii was
soon seen that the young man was fatally
wounded, and though he was hurried TO
the Kings Daughters Hospital and every
effort made to save his life, he passed
away Sunday afternoon. One bullet
through his lung and another through the
abdomen caused fatal wounds.
The fratricide ran away after the shoot
ing, but was soon captured at the edge OF
town and taken to Jail, where he will
await the charge of murder.
Frank Paulding was graduate OF the
School OF Fine Arts OF Philadelphia and
was an artist OF promise and ability. His
dreadful death al the hands OF his brother
created deep sorrow in the community,
and is a crushing blow to his parents.
AT the coroner's inquest on Monday
John Paulding said that he killed his
brother in SELF defense, as his brother
had threatened him. He admitted that he
was intoxicated when he fired the shots.
The coroner's jury rendered verdict
charging Paulding with killingh his brother.

A Tough Customer.

Town Sergeant Shipley had an I'M
pleasant experience with strange negro
in this place on Monday. Mr.. Shipley
was coming up the river hill on Princess
street, and in passing joke with M. L.

ingly offended the negro, who was sitting
along the road. No explanation served

particularly vicious, and despite the
warnings of Sergeant ShipleY continued
10 revile and curse the officer in the most
offensive way. He finally picked up a
rock to throw at Mr.. Shipley, when the
latter struck him one effective blow IN
the face that conclusively ended the argu-
ment, and the negro was taken TO jail,
the fight all out of him. Sergeant Shipley
struck him so hard that he damaged his
hand considerably where il came in con-
tact with the fellows physiognomy, and
he had 10 have it attended to by physi-
clan.
Tuesday afternoon the negro, who said
that he was from Pennsylvania, was taken
before Mayor Martin. Before charge
was formally brought against him the
mayor asked him if he thought he could
get out OF town and across the river in
five minutes. "l'll make il in three" he
quickly replied; whereupon he was al
lowed to go, and he lost no time in get
ting on Maryland soil.
