WEEKLY-EURWALK - GAZETTE... 'Truth above all things.’ Entered in the Post office as a Newspaper. FRIDAY, AUGUST 4, 1899. GOOD EVENING. If the new Secretary of War doesn’t belie his‘name some of the fossils in the war bureaus will get turned up to the light of day. Dewey is going to see Naples. It is to be hoped that the remainder of a famous saying about seeing Naples will not apply to him for a good many ' years to come. ~ “Some da-y,”says a. German news- ‘paper, “Europeans may be forced to interfere in American affairs.” And yet people wonder at the Kaiser’s atti- tude towards the peace conference and his idea that'his navy must be increas- ~- ed to the utmost possible limit. William Waldorf Astor, who has bored the Prince of Wales to the point of being excluded-from the royal social let, is going to revenge himself by boring the British people during his natural life. T‘He'has just been natural- ized a British subject. ‘ 0 One of the sailors who served on the cutter McCullcoh in the battle .of Ma nila Bay, and who received one of the bronze medals" voted by Congress to those who were in that fight, was on shore leave in Baltimore recently, when a stranger approached him and asked to see the decoration. The landsman finally ofiered the brave jack tar $100 for his Dewey medal and the jackie promptly knocked him dOWn. A policeman who arrived in time to pick up the would-be purchaser refused to arrest the sailor. To-day the Shamrock starts on her long trip across the ocean, and with her comes all the hopes of Great Britain for securing the America’s cup, for this year. at least.; It has regiiired much fivihgto enable her to stand the rough usage of an ocean voyage, for unlike most other challengers the Lip- ton boat is a racing machine pure and simple. By a system of cross braces she has been made staunch, and the builder and owner trust'that she will arrive here sliowing no effects of her budetings with the waves. . In this wish they are joined by all, for every one wants to see a fair race with the best boat the winner. There is nothing to be gained in beating a cripple, andencuses after defeat. are not in good taste. It has long been contended that the boats sent across have had to be constructed in such a way to withstand the trip at the cost of speed. This being eliminated in this case, it only remains for the Shamrock to arrive in good shape and we will see what can be done on the other side in the way of building racers in which speed alone has been the first and last consideration. Repairing the Columbia. NEWPORT, R. 1., Aug. 4.———Ralph N Ellis, chairman of the regatta committee of the Newport Yacht Racing associa- tion, says that it is possible Columbia will be ready to race tomorrow, but in case she is not the association will offer a handicap cup to he raced for by the Defender, Vigilant and Navahoe. BEEIBDLESS OF AGE. The kidneys are responsible for more sickness, suffering, and deaths than any other organs of the body. A majority of the ills afflicting peo- ple today is traceable to kidney trouble. lt pervades all classes of so- ciety, in all climates, regardless of age, sex or condition. The symptoms of kidney trouble are unmistakable, such as rheumatism, neuralgia, sleeplessness, pain or dull ache in the back, a desire to urinate often day or night, profuse or scanty supply. Uric acid, or brick-dust deposit in urine are signs of clogged kidneys, causing poisoned and germ-filled blood. Sometimes the heart acts badly, and tube casts (wastingfof the kidneys) are found in the urine, which if neglected will result in Bright’s Disease, the most dangerous form of kidney trouble. All these symptoms and conditions are prom tly removed under the in- fluepce 0 Dr. K ilmer’s Swamp-Root. It has a world wide reputation for its wonderful cures of the most distress- inglcases. 0 one need be long without it as it is so easy to get at any drug store at fifty cents or one dollar. You can have a sample bottle of this wonderful dis- covery, Swamp-Root, and abook telling all about it, both sent to you absolutely free by mail.
