Tor soms time I, have felt It my duty

twice every week for headache. All he
did for roe waa to give something to east
the pain. Somstlmea the pain waa so
evere that I could not speak, and mem

until I waa relieved. A sample of Dr.

OFFICIALS BREAK UP CAMP
League of Municipalities Concludes a
Most Profitable Session.
MAYOR MACEEA 13 PRESIDENT
City Com pitmen ted on Way It Had
Kntertalned and Press Pralaed
far Its Reports of the
Conventlna.
"In every respect this year's meeting has
been the most successful In the history of
the organization," was the statement of
Secretary Frank O. Pierce yesterday aft
ernoon when the tenth annual convention
of the League of Iowa Municipalities waa
brought to a close. "More Interest haa
been shown In the subjects discussed, there
has been a bigger attendance and It is
evident that city officials throughout the
state are beginning to realise the Impor
tance of the purpose and work of the
league," he said.
As a compliment to Council Bluffs for the
excellent manner In which It had enter
tained the convention Mayor Macrae was
elected president of the league for the en
suing year. .Mayor F. C. Gregory of Ma
quoketa whs elected vice president and
Frank O. Pierce of Marshalltown was re
elected secretary-treasurer, which position
he has held ever since the organisation of
the league In Marshalltown In 1898.
Ottumwa was selected as the city !
which to hold the convention next year.
Waterloo was also In the field for the meet
ing, but withdrew In favor of Ottumwa.
Eefore adjourning the convention adopted
resolutions thanking the city officials, the
Commercial club and citizens generally for
the manner In which It had been enter
tained. The resolutions also complimented
the newspapers for the excellent reports
of the proceedings. Secretary Pierce took
occasion to state that the proceedings of
the convention had been better reported
and given greater publicity In the news
papers circulating In Council Bluffs than
In any other city In which the league had
previously held Its annual session.
At the close of the afternoon session the
majority of the visitors left for their re
spective homes, although quite a few re
mained over night and will leave for home
this morning.
Practical Street I.tgrhtlna-.
"Practical Btreet Lighting" was the sub
ject treated by City Clerk R. L. Taylor of
Spencer at the morning session. In part,
Mr. Taylor said:
I think the phrase "street lighting"
should be changed to "sidewalk lighting."
It Is far more Important that WAlks should
be well lighted than the street, for It Is
here that the larger per cent of travel oc
curs after dark and the sidewalk, on ac
count of trees, la necessarily much darker
than the street.
The. lighting of streets by arcs Is most
common, due chiefly to two reasons first,
the original cost of Installation for a sys
tem that can be controlled from the central
station Is less than with Incandescentsi
second, the arc lamp was, until recently,
the onlv form of electrical Uluminent at all
practical for street lighting. Within the
last few yesrs Improvements have been
made that render the Incandescent practical
for this class of work.
The power of a light to penetrate dark
ness or carry long distances Is determined
by Its color rays. The light from an arc
being composed principally of blues and
violets will not penetrate nearly so far as
that frotn the Incandescent, which Is made
mostly of reds and yellows.
Arc lights are all right on business streets
and at railroad crossings, where a brilliant
light Is needed and there are no trees to
be dealt with, but In the residence districts,
where the trees are thick and a less power
ful and more evenly distributed light Is
needed, there Is no question but what in
candescent would be more practical.
Assuming that It Is the sidewalk rather
than the roadway that Is to be lighted, It
necessnrlly follows that ax or near tho
sidewalk Is the proper place for the light.
In some Instances It might be preferable
to have the light directly over the walk, but
In general I would recommend that they be
placed near the curb line. This, with an
ordinary three-foot bracket would bring
the light about a foot and a half out In the
street. So placed they would light the side
walk on both sides as well as the roadway,
and at the same time not Interfere with the
vision of those driving In the center of the
street. This also allows the light to be
placed considerably lower than when hung
over the center of the street, thereby de
livering a greater amount of effective light
where It Is needed. Instead of wasting It on
the foliage of the trees. .
Acconntlnsjr for Manlrlpallttes, ''
F. C. Norton, city auditor of Burlington,
member of the commission appointed by the
state legislature, presented an Interesting
report of the commission on uniform ac
counting for Iowa municipalities.
"Some cities and towns have found much
fault with the operation of the present law
I both regarding the accounting and exam
ination of accounts," said Mr. Norton "but
It must be borne In mind th lufnclent
time haa not elapsed to pass criticism upon
and modify the features that may appear
iu iircu viiBiiv, yei 11 cuinuriiiB lu ine law
and if the law la not what was intended.
It should not be charged against the sys
tem. "Not a city haa been examined but what
I has been criticised for the lllesal exrjendl-
iuio in imiit-y -or exceeuing ine amounts
appropnaiea rur the various departments.
If the examinations proved nothing else.
this alone would be ample argument for
Its exls-ence.
With no Intention of criticising the work
of the examiners or their reports on the
various cities examined, for they are men
who are my superiors both in education and
experience, still I would suggest that they
confine their criticism to the question In
volved, that Is, correct accounting.
An opinion touching on the legal phase
1 of city finances should not be given unless
v'ked by unquestioned legal authority,
dy city's credit, the same as that of any
.nrr corporation, coinn easily be Jeopard
ized by an erroneous, but accepted opinion.
and perhaps at a time when credit Is abso
' lutely necessary. It was the recommenda
tion of the committee that the examiners
! act more in the capacity of Instructors
man critics
I know the examiners have been criticised
in many places they have visited, but I also
know the defects which existed prior to
the examination and to which .they called
attention, have since been remedied.
i We ask that the measure receive a fair
and Impartial trial.
i Mr. Norton's eeport invited considerable
discussion and criticism of the working
; of the commission. Several members
claimed that the commission made exces
sive charges for examinations. City at-
t torncy Orvls of Oskaloosa stated that the
examiners, after spending a week in his
city, merely reported that they found the
accounts In good condition and then charged
S461 for their work. Mr. Orvls declared
he could see no excuse for the existence
I of the board of examiners.
j Secretary Pierce, white not defending the
actions of the board, took the position that
It could and did give great service to towns
; In correcting abuses. He said he did not
I consider It fair to Judge or condemn the
! system until it had been given a fair trial.

dressed a letter to the various railroads
asking that they restore the privilege of
feeding sheep In transit. Tho Corn Bolt

were so large. Tho expenses of this year's
fair were nearly 84,000 greater than for
last year. Had the expenses been the

ORTURED
Women have so much to go through
in lire tnat it is a pity mere it so
much needless Buffering from back
ache, headache, dizziness, languor and
other common aches and ills of kid
ney complaint.
Doan's Kidney rills have brought
new life and strength to thousands of
women afflicted in this way.
Women are prone to kidney trouble.
They have so much indoor work to do,
so much lifting, bending and stooping;
they are bound by custom to tight,
heavy clothing. They get little out
door exercise, and any little cold may
bring on kidney weakness.
Don't worry if you feel tired and
dragged out if you have backache
and bearing-down pain, headache,
dizzy spells, faintnees and -lack ambi
tion. Don't think it'g some trouble
peculiar to the sex. Men suffer In the
same way when they have kidney
trouble.
Ask yourself this question: "Are
my kidneys well?" The condition of
the kidney secretions may give you
an answer. If there is a brick-dust
sediment, or a stringy settling in the
urine; if passages are too frequent, and
copious, or scanty and painful, it is
time to begin using Doan's Kidney
Pills. Delay may run you into Bright'a
disease or diabetes.

AMKS. Ia., Sept. 20.-(Spec!al.) Notwith
standing the fact that early reports were
sent out from Ames to the effect that
hazing at the Iowa State college was on
the decline and was decidedly unnotlceable
this year, there appears to have been a few
very severe cases and some are getting
Initiations yet that are not the most pleas
ant. The first case to attract attention
was that of ' Roy Shearer of Gilbert, who
was not very strong at all and was some
what under the weather in addition to this
when he entered school. He was not a
boy who would appeal to the crowd as a
bully or It seems who would come In for
rough treatment at any time, but he was
used so roughly that he was compelled to
remain out of school for some days.
Another case that was probably the worst
case that has appeared at the college for
some time past, was that of a young man
whose name has not been made public. A
crowd of sophomores took him, in company
with several freshmen, one evening for a
stroll In the country. A swift speed was
kept up all the way and some distance
out in the country the boys were put on
the run. This was kept up for some time
until the young man who was not feeling
well that evening fainted completely away.
It is said that the young man himself
holds no grudge against the fellows who
did It, but attributes tl.e entire result to
his condition on the evening of the occur
rence. He Is somewhat Inclined to think
that a few members were rather rough
with paddles they used upon him, how
ever. When he fainted the offenders
planned to call a physician, but Anally
got him somewhat revived with cold water
and did not call medical aid. They car
ried him' to a nearby farm house, where
he was kept during the night, and he him
self did not know what had happened to
him until the next morning. The report
went out at first that the bunch of sopho
mores ran in relays against him In an at
tempt to sweat him. This Is not true, but
they saw long before he gave way that Ms
condition was not normal.
A third case somewhat similar to the one
two or three years ago was that of a
young man who Is rooming In the city of
Ames. The crowd had already hazed him
twlco and attempted to do the trick a
third time. Thla young man w'as no fond
ling and had a notion that the play had
gone far enough. Accordingly he drew a
revolver on the crowd and they retreated.
An occasion of this kind two or throe
years ago resulted In a student being quite
badly shot. This young man did not have
occasion to shoot anyone after showing
his Inclination to do so if they continued
to molust htm. but It is rumored that the
crowd have made their boasts that they
will get him yet, and should they attempt
it he may bring his levolver Into ploy.

State Bankers to Be Entertained by
the South Omaha Bankers.
PACKING HOUSES TO BE VISITED
l.nncheon to Be Served at Noon at
Stock Exchana-e and In Meantime
the Ad van aa;es of City to Be
Impressed on Visitors.
The 8outh Omaha bank officials are to
entertain the state convention of the Ne
braska Bankers' association today. Cars
are to be provided to bring the delegation
to South Omaha at, an early hour. During
the forenoon the convention will visit one
or more of the packing houses. The Omaha
plant will be first visited. At noon lunch
eon will be served at the exchange dining
hall. The arrangements for this are under
the charge of Mr. Folda of the Union Stock
Yards National bank. Mr. Folda is pre
paring to show the South Omaha Interests
to great advantage. Among things with
which the South Omaha bankers wish to
Imprest) the convention Is the enormous
amount of business developed by the pack
ing houses and Stock exchange. One of
the most evident proofs of this that can
be approximated Is that the clearings of
the South Omaha banks are a large per
cent of the total clearings of the two cities
combined. It la not unusual for a Booth
Omaha bank to handle checks and draftr
for over $150,000 in a day. These are being
constantly sent out and most of the clear
ings are made In Omaha. A visit to any
one of the 'South Omaha banks about 10
a. m. will show the nature of the demands.
The public lobby at that hour Is thronged
with stockmen cashing In. Most of these
men deposit their, checks and send drafts
to their country banks at home. On lively
days the rush lasts for hours. A glance at
the market report will show about what
this volume of business amounts to each
day. The packing house business from the
other side amounts to Just as great an Item,
plus the proflts. With these figures at hand
the South Omaha men hope to make a fa
vorable showing.
New Bottling; Plant Opens.
The Jetter Brewing company will open Its
new bottling plant Monday morning. This
building has been In the process of erection
all summer. Tho last of the machinery
was set in position this week. The capacity
of the new machinery is 24,000 bottles per
day. This Is represented by ISO barrels of
beer. The machinery consists of the, latest
patterns in bottling machines, which are
propelled by eleven motors. The plant fur
nishes Its own electrical power. The beer
Is. piped to the bottling works from tha
large tank cellars In an underground sys
tem. Martin Jetter expressed much satis
faction yesterday afternoon over tha com
pletion of the work. Bpeclal attention will
be given to visitors who wish to see the
new plant in operation.
Hashing Work on Sewers.
The National Construction company Is
busy installing machinery on the big
sewer , contract. It is hoped that the
lower section of the tunnel may be com-,
pleted before cold weather, so that tho
work in tbe tunnel section may continue
all winter. It Is now proposed to work
at both ends of the tunnel. To give room
for another crew of workmen a shaft
will be sunk at Fifteenth and Monroe
streets to the level of the proposed tun
nel and the earth will be lifted by a
hoist and the work proceed In both di
rections from the foot of the shaft. This
will be a great advantage unless water
in large volumes should be encountered.
In that case the cost of steam pumps
would be considerable. The tunnel will
be nearly 2,000 feet long when completed.
The Inside diameter is eight feet.
Police Conrt Besy,
Several tedious cases were tried In po
lice court yesterday involving a number
of contentions. The first waa the case
of Charlea Tracy, who was arrested by
the .city building Inspector, W. A. Mc
Cllntock, for alleged interference in the
performance of the Inspector's duty. This
occurred September 8. MuCllntock tes
tified that Tracy had abused him, using
vile language. The court fined Tracy $5
and costs.
The second case occupied the entire aft
ernoon. Frank Vlga and his brother-ln-law.
StephanskU had two men named
Ordrowski and Koweleskl arrested for as
sault and battery. The two latter men
gave Stephanskl a beating while Vlga
was out calling for the police. The quar
rel arose over the price of board charged
by Vlga. Judge King Imposed a fine cf
lift and costs on the principal offender.
The other waa fined 15.
Writ of Ouster Enjoined.
In the case of John Riches against the
Live Stock National bank, newly org i
Iztd, which case Involved the possession
of the McDonald block, where the new
bank proposes to open business, John
Riches, through his attorneys In' the
st'preme court, secured a stay of execu
tion on the writ of ouster which Sheriff
McDonald was to have served and which
had been issued by the district court.
This stay holds good until October 2,

OMAHA TESTIMONY.
Mrs. Anna Qorham, 1109 North
Eleventh street. Omaha, Neb., says:
"In 1899 when I first learned of. and
used Doan's Kidney Pills. I had been
having kidney complaint for about
three years. I had tried doctors and
various kinds of medicines, but still
backache, headache and dizziness clung
to me constantly. When I began using
Doan's Kidney Pills. I aa so weak
that I could not do anything. The im
provement they made in my condition
was wonderful. They restored me to
good health and as proof that the, re
lief was lasting, 1 can aay that I did
not have occasion to use them until
some few months ago. I then had a
slight attack of backache, but a prompt
use of Doan's Kidney Pill" banished it.
They certainly are a preparation of
great merit."
that time the matter has been in litiga
tion. If Riches should win at the hear
ing October I then It would'be imposslbl
to oust him before the expiration of the
license next May. The peculiar point In
the case is that Riches Is required to
have a license for a particular bulldlnf
and that the license, once secured, can
not be made to cover a removal. So if
he is ousted It would be necessary to
secure a new license at the cost of $1,009,
