with Foley's Kidney cure: "For years I
had been greatly bothered with kidney

ter taking thiee bottles I was entirely
relieved and cured, I prescribe it now
daily in my practice and heartily recom
mend its use to all physicians for such
troubles. 1 have prescribed it in hun

Brooklyn Defeats St. Lonin.
CINCINNATI. O., July Cincinnati
was defeated by Brooklyn in a slug
ging match. Although the Cincinnatis
outbatted Brooklyn their hit# were not
as timely. Suthoff and Garvin, >who
started in to pitch for each team, were
knocked out of the box, and their suc
cessors did not fare much better.
Dobbs, Jordan and Berkley were order
ed off the grounds by Umpire Moran
for kicking. VickcTs, while running to
second base, fell on Corcoran and hurt
the Cincinnati shortstop's shoulder so
that It will probably keep him out of
the game for some lime. Score: Cin

NON-UNION
MEN AT WORK.
Estimated That Boss Painters
Have About Twenty Journey
men Employed To-day.
SEALED COMMUNICATION
Both the Bosses and Painter's Union Were
in Session Friday Night in Different
Places and the Journe> men Sent Com
munication to Bosses Contents of
Which is not Made Public.
At the special mooting of the Build
ing Trades Conncil held in Adelaide
building, Friday night, the troubles
botween the Painters Union and the
boss painters was the main topio for
discussion. The trouble was thor
oughly sifted and h sealed communica
tion was sent tn the Building Trades
Association who wore also in session
in the Dan<i building, Smith street.
What the communication contained
none of the members of the council
would say, but it is thought by many
of the local union men that it notifies
the Building Trades Association that
if the boss painters oontinue to put
on non-union labor the way they have
been doiue, trouble will result trom
it.
Another meeting of the Building
Trades Counoil will be held tonight
when a reply is expected from the
Building Trades Association. Today
the journeymen paintors are not doing
anything to try and stop the non
union men from going to work. There
must be at least twentj non-union
painters at work today, but that the
journeymen painters have something
up their sleeves can easily be seen for
when then attention was oalledi to
this fact they only laughed and said
nothing,
The boss painters will not talk about
the matter. They olaim that they
iiave plenty of men at work apd are
getting along finely,

attractive feature of Pawnee Bill's

wonderfully realistic manner Daring
adventures, reckless charges, heroic
encounters and stubborn defenses meet
and charm the eyes. Step by step the
hpectators follow the flag through
oonntless difficulties until its beauti
ful folds rise triumphant above
Agninaldo's stronghold. Were this
the entire performance, it would be
worth the Drice of admission many
times to seo it, but it is put one of
many features, all meritorioub, all
prepared with great care and enor
mous ezponse. The uplifting nature
of the numerous attractions of this
mighty show was frequently com
mented upon during the performance,
and all present felt they were made
better bv being present at what all
considered to bu the triumph of our
times in the shape of a 'show. Man
and money could scaroelv do more.

of dollars and probably loss of life.
So sudden was the rise In the stream
that the people living along the banks
had barely time to run to the hills.
Many houses and other buildings were
swept away.
The water Is still rising, and the en
tire freight station at tlvis place was
washed from \lts foundation and car
ried down the stream, taKing with it
the Irwin bridge, the steel bridge on
the Youghiogheny branch and the iron
bridge to the freight yards. Five load
ed coal cars on the bridges were swept
down the stream. There Is still a big
volume of water ominously held back
by debris at Manor, and this may break
at any moment. I
