Among the many famous cures of
Swamp-Root investigated by interested
persons none seem to speak higher of
the wonderful curative properties of this
great kidney remedy than the one we

Mr?. JT. N. TVheeler. of 11? TOsh Rock
St.. I.ynn, Ma?., writes on Nov. 2. 19ti:
''About IS niuntits ai.ri I had a vt-ry severe
ST'H uf sickness. I -was t-xtremelv sick

In my back. My water at times looked
very likw coffee. I coijld pa?s but little

Did "Not Know I Had

I somehow fr-lt certain that rov kidnevs
were the cause ff mv trouble. My sister,

Kilmer's Swamp-Root, because as ?oon as your kidnrvs are well they will help
ail the other oipms to health. A trial will convince anyone.
Many women sunr untold misery because the nature of their disease is not
correctly understood; in most cases they are led to believe that womb trouble or
r-ma.lt. weakness of some sort Is responsible for their manv ills, when in fact
isordered kidneys are the chief cause of their distressing troubles.
Neuralgia, nervousness, headache, puffy or dark circles under the eves, rheu
matism, a dragging pain or dull ache in the back, weakness or bearing down
Sensation, profuse or scanty supply of urine, with strong odor .frequent desire to
pass It rsi,rht or day, with scalding or burning sensation these are ail unmis
takable signs of kidney and bladder trouble.
If there Is any doubt in your mind as to your condition, take from your erihe
on rising about four ounces, place it in a glass or bottle and let it stand twenty
four hours. If on examination it is milky or cloudy, if there is a brick-dust
settling, or if srnad particles float about in It. your kidnevs are in need of imme
diate attention.
Other symptoms showing that you need Swamp-Root are sleeplessness dizzi
ness irregular heart, breathlessness, sallow, unhealthy complexion, plenty of
ambition but no strength.

London, March 6. Fencing for ladies
is rapidly growing more fashionable in
Ijondon. Every day, at the smart fenc
ing schools, one meets no end of well
known people.
The king bas always been devoted to
this graceful accomplishment. So high

known, professors. Now that the doctors
Jiave ordered gymnasium and other
hygienic exercises for men as well as for
women, tho schools axe crowded every
cay.
Undoubtedly the best lady fencer In
Indon is Miss) Toupee Lowther. A year
a.e-o ehe was described as the lady cham
pion of Kngland. She has on more than
one occa-sion riven an exhibition of her
pkill before the king and queen. nd
they both expressed themselves &a de

An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
Stbcp of Figs, manufactured by the
Califorhia Fio Stbcp Co., illustrate
the valueof obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants knorrn to be
medicinally laxative and presenting'
them in the form most refreshing-to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening' laxa
tive, cleansing- the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fever
g-ently yet promptly and enabling- one
to overcome habitual constipation per
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting- on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating- them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing- figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the California Fkj Ktbci

Wichita, March 26. At a meeting of
the city council quite a eensation was
created by the reading of an article
from the "Law and. Order," in which
Colonel Lewis charged the city officials
with corruption and with the misappro
priation of the funds accruing from sa
loon, fines. After the members of the
council had expressed their opinion upon
the subject, Councilman Davidson mo ved
that a committee be appointed by th.e
mayor to investigate the charges made
in the article and to report the same to
the council at its next regular sessi Mi.
Mayor Ross appointed Councilmen Dav
idson, Dewey and Luling for this puf
poe? and these gentlemen have prepared
the following statement:
From the perusal of the same it will
be plainly .seen that not a dollar was
appropriated for any other than a striec
ly necessary purpose for the maintam
ar.ee of the city government and for the
beautifying of the city parks. Alter
considerable money was appropriated
monthly for worthy charities from this
an,i fund. Without this source of rev
enu - an extra tax levy would have to be
made for the maintenance of some of
the necessary departments since they
ave not provided for in the regular levy
and this would bring an extra burden
upor the taxpayers. A careful Inspection
of the tax levies of some of the cities the
size of Wichita reveals" the fact that
there is not a single one that is con
ducted on a more conservative basis nor,
when everything is considered, is there
one that has as small a tax levy as
Wit hita.
Tl.e following 5s the statement In full:
To Finlay Ross, Mayor, Wichita, Ksi.:
The special committee appointed to
investigate the charge of misappropri
atioi of funds collected by the police de
partment, rejort as follows:
Siatement of receipts and disburse
ments since July, lSi-S:
V-- have made a detailed staternopt j
as above set forth of the disbursements I
from the police department since it was
turned over to the city, for the reason
that some of our citizens, whose resi
denoe here is not of long standing, might
believe the reports that have been circu
lated by Irresponsible parties.
A large per cent of the money turned
over by the police department comes
from the salix.ns in this manner. Once
each month the saloonkeepers are ar
rested and put under cash bond of iQ
to appear fir trial. I'sually they do net
appear, and the $-7.0 is forfeited to the
city. Sine July 1st, 188, JS3.922.5S has
beer turned over to the city treasurer,
and after paying the expenses of the
police deptu-tment and appropriates
$.100 per month to the patk fund, then
hns been turned into the general fufd
J29.V2G.10. This money has been used by
the city council in paying appropria
tions not provided for by levy. A few
of the items paid out of this fund are as
follows:
City Hospital, jr.O per month.
Children's Home. f'.O per month.
Helen Could Home, S15 per month.
Public Library, fso per month.
Old Soldiers' pavilion, $30.
Itr provement of old cemetery, $200.
St. Francis Hospital has also received
aid. The balance of this fund has been
used for sidewalks, intersections, streets
and other necessary improvements. Fv
ery dollar appropriated to the general
fund has ben paid out for some legiti
mate and useful purpose, and is a mat
ter of record in the city clerk's office,
open to the inspection of anyone who de
Eire to know the facts.
Wnlle it is not a part of the business
of -his committee, yet we thought it
world be interesting for the public gen
erally to know that during your admin
istration we have found in our investi
gation that the indebtedness of the city
of Wichita has been reduced nearly
$1;"0 00O, notwithstanding the fact that
peveral beautiful and useful parks have
beea purchased for the benefit of our
citizens and have been made and are be
ing made beautiful and attractive by
the most judicious and economical ex
penditure of public money.
Respectfully submitted,

MAKES POOR BUTTER.
Kaffir Corn Not Good Feed For Dairy
Cows.
Lyndon, Kas., March 26. It has cost
the Overbrook creamery of this place
$400 to learn that the milk from cows
fed on Kaffir corn will not produce good
butter. For the past three months the
manager of the creamery has been un
able to make high grade butter, and has
lost about $-100 on a reduction In the
price. He had experts at work to locate
the trouble, but they failed. Finally one
of the common laborers at the creamery
did some experimenting on his own ac
count. He kept the milk separate and
churned some of each. He soon found
out that the milk from the cows fed on
Kaffir corn was what brought down the
grade of the butter.

Captures Jimmy Williams Away
From the Pirates.
SIGKS WITH M'GRAW.
Star
Infielder Is Given
Princely Salary.
Will
Play Short For Mnggsy's
Baltimore Team.
Hot Springs, Ark., March 6. Jimmy
Williams, who played third base for
Pittsburg last year, signed Kst night
with Muggsy McGraw. The contract is
for $2,600 and $500 the moment he sign
ed.. McGraw gave him the money. He
eigned at 11:45 at night. Jimmy Williams
is a star player, and this is a decided
sensation In baseball, as It has been
thought that Barney Dreyfuss would rot
lose a player.
Williams had a bad season in 1900, but
is expected to play up to his previous
form this year, its has been taking the
baths here, and is now almost down to
playing weight. Jimmy is not only a
great infielder, but one of the best hit
ters in the profession. He will probably
play shortstop at Baltimore, while Man
ager McGraw will cover his old position
at third base. The signing'of Williams
is a big victory for the American league.
BASEBALL AT K. XT.
National Game as Well as Other
Sports Show Upward Tendency.
Lawrence, Kan., March 26. Kansas uni
versity base ball prospects are unusually
good, and there Is every Indication that
the team will be first class. With the
memory of a disastrous foot ball season
still haunting the athletes of K. C there
is a double Incentive for the enthusiasm
and determination with which base ball
matters are being pushed. Though the
weather has prevented extensive outdoor
practice the gymnasium Is crowded with
men doing indoor work, and there are
several candidates for most of the places.
Among the men who are showing up
well are Pitchers Hall. Alphin, MeCamp
bell and Trussel. Hall and Alphin arc
both men of experience with former K.
U. teams, while McCampbell and Trus
sel are getting in fair form. Curry ami
Pray are after first bae. while Gramly
will probably play second. Tucker and
White are both experienced third base
men. Captain Poorman will - remain in
his former position of shortstop. Quigley.
Bennett and Welling will form a strong
trio for the field. The season will open
April 6 with Haskell, on McCook field.
The Kansas City Blues will be played in
Kansas City April 12. and on the home
grounds April 16. The team will take its
eastern trip April 24 to May 4. playing
ten games, among which are those with
the Universities of Missouri. Nebraska
and St. Louis.
Track team work at Kansas university

Connie Mack got the jump on Billy
Phettsline last week. In getting players
Tor - his team the American league man
ager went right Into the Phillies' strong
iiold nd pulled out three of the best
men in their respective positions. These
are Ijajoie. Frazer and Bernhard. This
trio, with Lave Cross and Pitcher Willis,
gives the new Philadelphia, team a stand
ing in base bail society that needs little
inspection from the Ward McAllisters
among the fans in order to pass muster.
Added to these are Phil Geier, also of
the National league last year, and Dave
Fultz, who has had experience in the big
leHgue. It will thus be seen that Mr.
MaCk hfts got together a combination
that speaks for itself, and which should
take little back talk from- any In the
American league.
One week ago It looked as If Billy
Shettsline would have a team that would
make Connie Mack's aggregation resem
ble a . collection of goose eggs. But in
building up .his team Mr. Mack has weak
ened the Phillies, and has thereby made
a double gain. From present appearances
the two teams will-take the field in a few
days very- evenly matched as regards in
dividual playing strength. Behind the
bat the National league team has first
claim to recognition. At the other end
of the batteries, however, Connie Mack's
jure-rez-ation looks to have enough ad
vantage to at least even up the situation.
taken inaiviauaiiy ana collectively me
two teams present an interesting basis
for comparison. So far as a line can be
gathered on the other teams of the two
organizations, the Philadelphia American
leaguers should hold up their end with
the best of those in the American. As
in the Phillies' chances in the National
league race, they nave suffered so little
in comparison with some of the other
teams "in losing stars that they should
present as strong a front to their rivals
as they have tho past couple of years.
