Whal Shall We no.
» A serious and dangerous disease pre-
vails in this country, dangerous be-
cause so deceptive. It comes on so
, slowly yet surely that it is often firmly
{seated before we are aware of it.
The'name of this disease which may
be divided into three distinct stages is,
First, Kidney trouble, indicated by
pain in the back, rheumatism, lumba-
go, frequent desire to urinate, often
with a burning sensation, the flow of
urine being copious or scant with
strong odor.
[If allOwed to advance, this reaches
the Second stage, or Bladder trouble,
with‘heavy pain in the abdomen low
dOWn between the navel and the water
passage, increasing, desire to urinate,
with scalding sensation in passing,
small quantities being passed with dif-
ficulty, sometimes necessary to draw it
. with instruments. If uric acid or gravel
has formed, it will prove dangerous if
neglected. ,
The third stage is Bright’s Disease.
There is comfort in knowing that
Dr. Kilmer, the great kidne and blad-
der specialist. has discovere a Remedy
famous for its marvelous cures of the
" most distressing'lcases and known as
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp—Root. ,
It is sold by all druggists'.’
As'a proof of the wonderful virtues of
this great discovery, Swamp-Root, a
sample bottle and book of va uable in-
formation will be sent o'bsolutel free

Subaru Employees Strike For More
Pay—Gold Found In Matanzns.
HAVANA, April 10.—All railway c‘om- .
,munication from Havana eastward is
suspended, because the strike of the
200 employees 'of the United roads af-
fects the provinces of Matanzas and
Santa Clara, as well as the routes to
Guanajay, province of Pinar del Rio,
and to Batabano, on the southern coast
of Havana province, where the steam-
ships make their communication with
Havana. N o freight, passengers or even ‘
milk could be moved yesterday; Many
people, in ignorance of the situation.
went to the city stations and waited
long in the hope that trains would be
started. The inconvenience resulting is
very great. It is hoped, however, that
the strike will be settled by the com-
pany acceding. to the demand of the,
strikers, who want a re-establishment
of the wage scale that existed before
the war. '
The Cuban generals who elected Gen-
eral, Gomez commander in chief were
to have notified him officially of their
action yesterday. They had not done
so up to 7 o’clock last evening, but it is
reported that he is to be waited upon by,
a committee later. There are so'many
contradictory reports as to their inten—
tions and doings that the fact of their
accomplishinc.r little or nothingpis be-
ginning to discredit in advance what—
'ever action they may ultimately tak‘c,
which at the best will be merely confer-
ring an honorary distinction. as Gen-
eral Brooke is preparing to handle the
payment of the Cuban army quite inde—
pendently of General G-omez..
A soldier at Matanzas yesterday, one
of a. squad cleaning the courtyard of
the castle, found a Spanish gold piece.
The members of the Squad immediately
staked off. claims in the western style
and dug up the whole yard, finding
coins dated all the way from 1730 to
1808 and worth $306.

Roosevelt \Varmly \Velcomed.
CHICAGO, April '10.——The train which
brought the New York governor to Chi-
cago at 4 o’clock last evening was met
at the suburban station of Englewood
by an enthusiastic crowd. The govern-
or was forced to come to the platform
of his car and say a few words. From
the moment Governor Roosevelt left his
car at the Lake Shore station, where he
was met by an escort of eight Rough
Riders, to the doors of his hotel, he was‘
surrounded and followed by crowds,
who cheered him every time he moved.

lournnlent Is Not In Sight.
ALBANY, April 10.—As. time passes
and the most important measures of the
session remain unacted upon the date
of final adjournment of the legislature
grows more remote. Today no one hopes
for adjournment before the lst' of May.
and it would not be surprising were
the end‘ postponed until the middle of
May. Nearly all the bills affecting mu—
nicipal interests which must receive the
consideration of the local authorities
still slumber in the upper branch, and
their sponsors have manifested no. dis—
position to preSs them. That this post-
ponement of the date of final adjourn-
ment is appreciated by the members is
manifest in a cessation of the feverish
anxiety of senators over the progress of
their individual measures, which was a
feature Of the early sessions of last
Week. So thoroughly was this appre-
ciated that on Friday, with a calendar
0f 25 pages of bills awaiting final ac-
tion, the senate adjourned without a.
protest after a 40 minute session with
less than six pages of these bills dis—
posed of.
Most important of the bills requiring
consideration by the mayor and‘local
authorities are the Amsterdam avenue
bill,.t~he rapid transit bill and the New
York city police bills. ‘ The first of these
is now in condition for final passage,
both hOLISes having accepted the con-
ference committee report, and should
there be' a full senate it is likely to be
passed on tonight. This, however, is :1
contingency which causes not a. little
anxiety to Republican leaders.
Meanwhile there still remain in com-
mittees of the two houses over 600 bills,
but a great majority of them will die
there and consume no time of the open
session. These bills are being daily add-
ed.,to in the number introduced in each
house, and there are a sufficient number
of private and local bills to occupy any
interim in the discussion of the more
important measures.
German Vie‘vv of Samoa Trouble.
BERLIN, April 10.—The National Zei-
lung, discussing the situation at Sa-
moa, declares that all changes which
have occurred there since the middle of
March are invalid and that the condi-
tions established by the joint proclama-
tion of the consuls on Jan. 4 are still
legally in force. While admitting the
“amicable attitude of 'the American
government,” the National Zeitung
says: “It must remain undecided for
the present whether Admiral Kautz has
assailed the honor of the German flag?
If this should prove to have been the
case, we have the fullest confidence in
the ability of the government not only
to keep the actual solution of the Sa-
moan question in View, but also to se—
cure adequ‘ate satisfaction for the moral
interests of the German empire.” .
Elephant lCilled His Keeper. l
KANSAS CITY, April 10.—-“Rajah,” a
mammoth elephant owned by Lemen

er. ’Fisher had returned to the tent in-
toxicated and tried to make the differ-

"prostrate trainer’s body with its tusks.
Unable to reach him, Rajah finally
knelt upon Fisher, crushing his life out
"before assistance could arrive. He is
said to be Rajah’sninth victim.
