The New Method
(BY L. w. BOWER, M. d.

Backache of any kind is often caused
by kidney disorder, which means that
the kidneys are not working properly
Poisonous matter and uric acid accumu-
late within the body in great abundance
over working the sick kidneys, hence
the congestion of blood causes backache
in the same manner as a similar con-
gestion in the head causes headache.
You become nervous, respondent, sick,
teyerish, irritable, have spots appearing
before the eyes, bags under the lids, and
lack ambition to do things.
The latest and most effective means
Of overcoming this trouble, is to eat spar
ingly of meat, drink plenty water be-
tween meals and take a single Anuric
tablet before each meal for while.
Simply ask your favorite druggist for
Anurlc. II you have lumDago, rheuma-
tsm, govt, dropsy, begin Immediately
with this novel treatment.

SHOCKING AFFAIR
Says Jackson Paper of Treatment of
Timothy Grimm, at Hands of
OffiCials-Jury's Verdict

The following is a portion of
lengthy article appearing in one Of
the Jackson, Mich, papers, relative
to the death Of Timothy Grimm, son
of John A. Grimm, of this city:
Whether or not suit for damages
may be brought against the city or
street car company as the result Of
the death of Timothy Grimm, a very
thorough investigation has been made
in the matter at the coroner's inquest
which was held in part Thursday
night and concluded Friday. At least
this mucn developed, that very ser
ious mistake was made following this
most unfortunate accident, and while
the probabilities are the young man
would have died from his injuries
even though he had been accorded
the best of care, the manner in which
he was handled was outrageously
had. Just where lay the blame for
the negligence is not easily determin-
ed because of conflicting testimony.
But to think that this young man,
semi-consOous from fractured skull
and unable to make a coherent state
ment, spent an entire night in the
cell block at police headquarters, his
body lying either on a hard board
bunk with no pillow on which to rest
his head, or on the cold concrete
floor of that place until his life had
ebbed away, is shocking affair, and
there is little wonder that the father,
a resident of the state of Ohio, came
here and employed an attorney that
the whole matter might be sifted and
the facts in the case brought to light.
The jury returned verdict that
the deceased died in the cell block at
police headquarters from injuries
in jumping from a street
car while the car was in motion.

MURDER
or COlored Woman Near OsgoOd in
1885 Recalled by Interment
of DIR. Greer at Versailles

Greenville, o., March 14.-Arrival
OF the body of DR.. Aaron r. Greer at
Versailles, o., where it was Inferred
Sunday, recalled to the older citizens
Of this city and county a murder,
which was committed in the vicinity
O. Osgood, this county, in August,
1885. The victim was Fannie Gra-
ham, colored, who lived with her
husband and family in Patterson
township. Having an aversion to
the residence there of colored people,
& number of citizens took it upon
themselves to harass the Graham
family until it would leave the COM
munity.
One of the parties engaged In this
effort, consisted of Greer and three
other men. III the hope that the
Graham family might be frightened
away, a shot was fred into the house.
Ey chance thc bullet struck Mrs, Gra-
ham, killing her instantly. Greer
was arrested and placed in Jail await
ine trial. Within few days, Greer's
wife came to sec him. Thinking
they desired to talk privately, the
sheriff allowed them to enter his res
idence. Locking the doors of the
room, the sheriff abonded them.
Greer escaped through the window.
lis wife continued to talk, thus con-
veying the impression to the sheriff
that her husband was still there. In
this way she kept up the deception
until Greer had gained considerable
headway. All efforts to locate him
were rnavailiDg.
1t was understood that he went to
Tennessee, where he changed his
name to West. No information has
been received here as to where his
death took place. He was about 70
" ars old when lie died.
