ache and kidney complaint have tried

plenty of proof of its merit right here
in Ellsworth.
Here is the testimony of one who
used Doan's Pills years ago, and now
makes his testimony even stronger.

First Regular Session of Year
Likely to be far From
Smooth Running

What promises to De a year of
stormy sessions for the Board of Al
dermen will get under way tonight
at city hall when the 1924 board
holds 1t first regular session of the
year. The organization meeting was
held at noon on New Years Day at
which time standing committees
were named and appointments to
city offices made. No other business
came before the board.
The appointments of Mayor Will
son to positions on city boards will
be before the aldermen tonight but
they will be for the information of
that body only, the aldermen having
no power to reject any of the mayors
selections.

members of Democratic board who
are "out in the cold' this year as a

closely bound together there seems
to be little likelihood that any of
Clark's or McGuire's plans will be
successful but the two ostracized
members of the board can cause a
great amount of trouble for the ma
jority Democrats by their opposition.

vote with one faction or the other.
Alderman Clark has emphasized
the fact that neither he nor Nc

Michael Stumpf as overseer of the
poor to succeed Math Hansen. Both
Clark and Mcguire passed on this
vote, Clark maintaining that Han
sens term does not expire until the
end of this year. If Hansen has any
bills before the board tonight it is
not expected the aldermen will rec
ognize them as the board no longer
considers him the overseer. Hansen
has announced his intention of car
rying his fight to court.

MULLEN HOUSE
IS DESTROYED
$4,000 Damage in Cold
Night Fire at SeWaren-
Little is Saved

SEWAREN, Jan. 1.-THE origin of
the fire which Saturday night part
ly destroyed the handsome residence
of George Mullen at East avenue
and caused an estimated damage of
some $4,000 is still undetermined
this morning There is some belief
that a spark from a passing
'engirrer had set the house ablaze.
while others are of the opinion that
defective insulation of electric wires
of the house caused the fire.
From accounts gathered this
morning. it was learned that Mr..
Mullen had been in Plainfield while
Mrs. Mullen and her daughters visit
ed in Perth Amboy Saturday night
Mrs. Hattie Whitaker, a neighbor
was first to notice the flames emerg-
ing from the upper part of the
house. She turned in an alarm,
but before she had a chance to tell
the firemen where the fire scene
was, she was abruptly cut off. Mrs.
f. II. Turner was then able to COM
municate with fire headquarters and
directed them to the Mullen home.
In the meantime r. w. Muller.
George Lufbarry and A. f. Rankin
were making an attempt to reach
fire headquarters by telephone.
The firemen responded quickly
but by the time they reached the
house upper west side of the wooden
structure was in flames. They sue
ceeded in saving some costly rugs
and furniture downstairs. but most
of it was ruined by water and icicles
as the fire fighters kept their 1880
feet of hose in full stream, thus sue
ceeding to save a greater part of the
building. The second floor and the
roof of the house were destroyed by
flames.
The wind at the time gave the fire
men considerable difficulty in check
ing the fire. They made an earnest
attempt to extinguish the fire in the
Mullen home and at the same time
made efforts to keep the flames from
reaching nearby dwellings, While
the men We're at work, the good
neighbors kept themselves busy pre-
pairing hot coffee for the men, who
were coated with icicles.

MURDER JURY DEADLOCKED
AFTER ALMOST 48 HOURS

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 1.-THE
fate of Katherine Miller, rooming
house mistress charged with the
killing of Harry Kabernagel, a feds
eral clerk, was still undetermined to-
day. A deadlock was reported by
the jury, which has had the case
under consideration since 3 o'clock
Saturday afternoon. The deadlock
is said to be one of the longest in
the history of the local courts. The
law requires that a verdict must be
returned in trial where murder is
charged.
One of the jurors yesterday in
formed Judge McDevitt that lone of
the jurors" was personally acquaint-
ed with a friend of the slain man"
and that under those circum-
stances an agreement would be ''im-
probable"
Katherine Miller, formerly of
WilkeS-Barre, Pa, shot and killed
Kabernagel, a former boarder at her
house, on West Philadelphia street
corner, October IL, when he refused
to return to her.

LODGE FAVORS .
RUSSIA POLICY.
Republican Senate Leader
Supports Administrations
Non-recognition Policy

WASHINGTON, Jan. THE ad-
ministration's policy of non-recog-
milton of the present Soviet govern
ment of Russia was supported vigor-
ously today in the senate by Senator
Lodge, the Republican Leader, and
chairman of the foreign relations
committee.
Quoting extensively from public
records and documents to how the
interlocking of the Soviet govern
ment and the communist interna-
tional, he also brought the additional
evidence to the support of Secretary
Hughes contention that officials Of
the Soviet government are party
through the Communist internation-
al to revolutionary propaganda in
the United States, aimed at the
overthrow of the American govern
ment.
I'm my judgment" said Senator
Lodge in summarizing his argument,
''it is no time to give the Soviet
government of Russia the official
recognition and approval of the
United States, and invite official
and under the diplomatic shield seek
tions, attack American laws and Am
erican freedom and kindle the flame
of riot and disorder throughout our
country.
"'Obsta Principiis' is an ancient
and wise rule never more needed
here at this moment. when we are
asked to give recognition not a peo-
pie or a country. but to a govern
ment-an active and insidious enemy
working under our flag against all
the beliefs and institutions which
Americans hold most precious"
Reading a carefully prepared ad-
dress of upwards of thirty thousand
words, Senator Lodge announced
that his argument contained mo Sc
cret reports of any kind" and that
he addressed himself solely to the
proposition contained in the resolu-
ton of Senator Borah, Republican,
Idaho, that the senate declare in IA
vor of the recognition of the present
Soviet government.
Evidence was presented to show
that the same group of men, chief
among them Lenin, Trotzky, Zinov-
lev, Bukharin, Kalinin and KAN
enev, control the Russian govern
ment and play a predominating roll
in the congresses and conferences of
the Communist Internationale.
Aside from this interlocking, SEN
ator Lodge asserted that the inter-
dependence of the Soviet govern
ment and the Communist Interna-
tionale manifests itself in many other
ways, that the proceedings of the
Communist Internationale, its proc
lamations and propaganda appear in
the official organs of the Soviet
government, that the use of the Rus
sian wireless and telegraph has been
granted to the Communist Interna-
tsonale and that meetings of the con-
crosses OF the Internationale and of
the executive committee are held in
governmental buildings.
Documentary evidence also was
produced to show that the Commun-
ist Internationale is the creation of
the Russian Communist party, which
was declared to be the controlling
force throughout the Russian gov
ernment. Control of the Interna-
tionale has been retained by that
party, Senator Lodge said, through
the support by the Soviet power of
many of the so-called foreign dele
gates and through the financial de-
pendence of the Internationale on
the Soviet power inasmuch as it has
no resources of its own.
