BALFOUR'S BIRTHDAY.

Lord Balfour of Burleigh the holder of a Scottish title more than three centuries old, was born in Kent, Scotland 70 years ago today. His eld- est son and heir Hon. Robert Bruce who bore the title of Master of Bur leigh was killed in the battle of Le Cateau in France early in the war He was 34 years old and an officer of the Sutherland Highlanders. At 20 he went to South Africa and served galIantly throughout the greater part of the Boer war receiving the Queens and Kings medals. He had also served in India, the Soudan and So- maitland.
 The title of Baron Balfour of Bur leigh was created in 1907 but was at- tained in 1716 because of the then baron's participation in the rising of 1715 and was only restored to the present baron in 1869. Baron Bal four married a sister of the seventh early of Aberdeen who bore him two sons and three daughters From 1895 to 1903 Lord Balfour was secretary for Scotland In the cabinet of Arthur Balfour-to whom he is not related. The family name is Bruce a daugh- ter of the fourth Baron Balfour of Burleigh having married descend ant of the royal Bruce line.

grossly harsh. as compared with the penalties imposed for like oftenses by our criminal courts, but they also differ so widely that we find the same offense punished in one court martial by twenty-five years in the penitentiary and in another by six months punishment in disciplinary barracks.
 "A boy overstaying his leave or yielding to a natural impulse to go home for Christmas is charged not with absence without leave but with desertion. Disobedience of orders is seen by a zealous officer as mutiny. Tn neither case is there present the intent to desert or to mutiny against the authority of the army. but boys have been convicted of the graver crime and sentenced to as much as twenty-five years Imprisonment.
 The accused soldier has no real legal protection. He may, 1t is true, l obtain a, pardon from the President but this leaves his record plotted by q serious crime of which he ought never to have been accused.
 "A young soldier, charged with burglary. was acquitted by the court martial which tried him. The com mandtng officer who appointed the court disapproved the finding of No, | Guilty and ordered the court to re- 1 consider the case. They did so anI | promptly found a verdict of Guilty and sentenced the boy to fifteen years Imprisonment. What would | be thought of power vested fin the l governor of a state to set aside a verdict of Not Guilty and order a retrial in a criminal case? It is fund | emental to our principles of right and justice that no one should have | the power to interfere with a verdic of Not Guilty
 A boy of sixteen. who had Jus been discharged from the hospita after an attack of influence, instead of being allowed the usual five days for recuperation, was set to scrub ping kitchen floors and to guard duty He protested he was not strong enough to do this work, nevertheless! he was continued on guard duty fol l a longer period than usual. In thii condition he was taken with a chill went to his tent to get his overcoa and while there sat down on th' l edge of his cot. He was caught witt his head in hls hands and was ac
 cused of being asleep while on duty Though he denied that was asleeI and asserted that he only yielded t
 oyer-powering fatigue, he was con victed by court-martial and sentenced
 to twenty-five years in the peniten tiary.

SALTS FINE FOR
 ACHING KIDNEYS
We eat too much meat, which clogs Kidneys, then Back hurts and Bladder bothers you.

Most folks forget that the kidneys, clogged and need a flushing occa- sionally, else we have backache and dull misery in the kidney region, se- were headaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liver acid stomach, sleepless- ness and all sorts Of bladder disor- ders.
 You simply must keep your kidneys active and clean, and the moment you feel an ache or pain in the kidney region, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any good drug store here, take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia. and is harmless to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neu- tralizes the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending blad- der disorders.
 lad Salts is harmless; inexpensive; i; makes a delightful effervescent lithia- water drink which everybody should take now and then to keep their kid neys clean, thus avoiding serious com pltcotions.
 A well-known local druggist says he sells lots of lad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it Is only trouble.-Adv.

ToDAY's ANNIVERSARY.

The first American-built vessel to make a deep-sea voyage, the Trial was launched PIT years ago today. The Trial was constructed at Boston and was for the purpose of carrying fish to England from the Massachu- setts Bay Colony. The fisherman who owned the ship sought to save the freight and middlemen's commits sions which had to be paid when the fish were exported in English bot toms. The Trial was rudely con- structed and few people would care to trust their lives to such a craft nowadays, but the ship successfully crossed the Atlantic, bartered the cargo of fish for sugar and wine and returned by way of the West Indies. Her builder was Capt. Thomas Coyte- more, who was also the first com mander of the vessel.

AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION ATTACKS MILITARY URTS-NIARTIAL

Washington, Jan. 13-PreSdent George T. Page of the American Bar Association has thrown q bombshell into the General Staff with his vigor- ous denunciation, at the annual meeting of the executive council of the association in New York city on January 3. of the cruel and excessive punishments meted out by military courts-martial to American soldiers during the past year and a half.
 For when MT. Page, as spokes- man for the most conservative legal group in the country, declared public ly that "the war has revealed that our military laws and our system of administering military justice are un- worthy name of law or justice" he shattered the almost incurable com piacency of the General Staff by re- vealiny a solid public resentment of |. which the military mind has hither- to been blissfuny ignorant.
 Congress has now taken up the matter Senator Chamberlain-who had some indignant words to say on the same subject the other day-is now gathering material to back up his demand for & thorough invesd- gation into the sentences meted out to the volunteers and drafted men for trifling infractions of discipline. Those who know of cases where men have been ra1lroaded, ought to for ward the facts to Senator Chamber lain, or their own senators, without delay
 Up on the hill 1t is believed that en investigation of all the sentences will be ordered. Some predict that before congress gets through cer- tain high military rcputatons will be blasted forever and that the reac. tionary Articles of War will be over hauled to make them more demo cratic and abreast of the more en, frightened military codes of France England, and Belgium.
 President Pages references to the atrocities of military law were in ful as follows:
 This war has demonstrated tha' our military laws and our system oI administering military justice are un. worthy of the name of law or jus tice. We are still following rulel and forms copied from England 1T 1774, which were long ago abandon ed by Great Britain and which were better suited to the armies of feuda times than to the citizen armies of { modern republic.
 My interest In this matter wa, aroused some time ago by stories O outrageous punishments meted ou by our court martials for compari lively slight breaches of military dis cipline. Punishments are moi onI

ST. CATHERINE OF RICCI.

Iu the calendar of the Roman Catholic church this day is sacred to the memory of St. Catherine of Rfcci, who lived and performed many works of piety, charity and Nercy in the sixteenth century. It Is said of Catherine that for 40 days she suffered all the terrible bangs of purgatory as a vicartous atonement for a friend who had died, and who, she believed. had been sinful. It is also said of Catherine that she "held ir rtercourse with thes aints in glory, and that her life was so exemplary that angels sang at her death.
