Charges Huston Took Letter.

Johnson further said in reply to Col. Illusions remarks:
 Colonel Huston once removed from the files of tho New York American League club a private letter I wrote Colonel Ruppert regarding the gamb- ling situation in Boston. He con- veyed the contents of that letter to President Heydler of the National League, thinking I could not prove the statements I had. made in it. I did prove them 10 the satisfaction of Mir Heydler and it led to the removal of Lee Magee and Hal Chase from base ball.
 "Trat is the kind of man Colonel Huston is.'
 That was the substance of the shell which the Big Bertha in Chicago sent crashing abroad. Fragments of it landed in New York and. while doing no material damage, as far as could be learned last evening, attracted suf- ficient attention so that Colonel Hus- ton and IT. H. Frazee. not having any thing important on their minds just before the dnner hour, sent out o couple of verbal torpedoes in response.
 Colonel Huston's brief but pointed rejoinder was as follows:

 the Coal Fields

Bochun, Germany, Dec. 20.-The general committee of the German Coal Miners Federation has notified Chancellor F'ehrenbach that they in tend to force through the reichstag a law for the specialization of the na- tional coal fields.
 In an open latter to the chancellor, the committee has called upon the government to make an unequivocal declaration on the issue. The min CTS also demanded to know how soon the government proposes to submit to the reichstag the draft of the new law.
 The miners letter to the chancellor sets forth that, in view of the prom ise given to the miners by the gov ernment last March and i norder to fulfill the Spa agreement and supply the home demands for fuel, the min CTS have willingly agreed to work overtime in order to stimulate produc- ton.
 They now charge the government with procrastination and aliege that they have been deceived in the delib- erations carried on by the socializ- alton commission and the conference in committee sessions of the, imperial economic council.

Diplomatic Post for Don Calderon in
 Mexican Service

Mexico City, Mexico, Dec. 90 President Obregon's failure to give Don Fernando Iglesias Calderon a post in the new cabinet does not mean that Calderon has lost favor with Obregon.
 It is said that Calderon was not taken into the cabinet because Pres ident Obregcn desired to make as few changes as possible in the cabinet of Provisional President de Ia. Huerta. He kept all he could of the ministers. dropping those only who might prove burdensome to his ad dministration., Calderon, it is said, will get a high diplomatic post. He is a highly edu- cated man, of fine appearance and polished manners, and while not con sIdered an intelligent giant would rep resent Mexico with credit in any cap itaI.
 Where Catderon will go is not known. It is believed that his ap- pointment as ambassador will be de- ferred until the question of recogni tion by the great. powers; is settled, so that he can be sent to one of the great capitals. r

IF BACkACHY OR
 KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat less meat, also take glass of Salts before eating
 breakfast

Uric acid in meat excites the kid- neys, they become overworked; get sluggish ache, and feel like Jumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irritated, and you may be obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. When the kidneys clog you must help them flush off the body's urinous waste or you'll be real sick person shortly. At first you feel dull misery in the ache,sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets sour. tongue coated and you feel rheumatic twInges when the eather is bad.
 Eat less meat drink lots of water; also get from any pharmacist four ounces of lad Salts; take a table, spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This fa- nous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with 1ithia, and has been used for genera tions to clean clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is source of irritation, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, cannot 1n- jure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active. Druggists here say they sell lots of lad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kid ney trouble while it is only trouble Adv.

The ills opponents declare however, it has slim chance Of ever reaching the president. They predict for it the fate of being smothered by amendments and debate in the Sen ate even if it is rushed through the House under a special rule choking off amendments and debate in that body. To apply a similar rule to it Tn the Senate, would require cloture. A two-thirds vote is necessary to in yoke cloture, or the restriction of de bate, and the Republicans lack that vote.
 The fate of the Senate resolution reviving the war finance corporation also passed by the House in much amended form. hangs in the balance.
