TOBACCO FACTORY WRECKED.
Kentucky House Operated for Tobacco
Trust Destroyed by Dynamite.
Elkton, Ky., Dec. 13. Tho tobacco
factory, owned by Mrs. M. 13. I'enyck
and operated for tho tobacco trust,
was blown up by dynamite. There
was no loss of life, but tho damage to
tho factory was complete. There was
no Insiirunco on the plant, as the In
surance company had only a few tlayB
ago cancelled tho policy, owing to
tho excitement occasioned In this lo
cality by the tactics of some of tho
dark tobacco growers. The force of
tho explosion was felt for a long dis
tance. Several houses in the vicinity
wero damaged. Tho deed Is thought
to have been committed by parties
friendly to tho Dark Tobacco (I rowers'
association, hut tho latter has se
verely condemned such action.
Tho conductor of a passenger train
on tho Rlkton and Guthrlo railroad
stated that as his train was making
tho roturn trip from Guthrlo to Elkton
ho was flagged at Urndshaw. When
tho train was stopped the engine was
boarded by masked men, who covered
tho engineer with revolvers and told
him to do their bidding. While this
was going on, about 160 men, all heav
ily maBkcd, boarded tho train, about
forty of them marching from ono end
to the other, with drawn rovolvers.
Tho leader of tho gang told tho pas
scngers not to got excited, as they
wero only looking for tobacco buyers.
After n thorough search of tho train
had been mado all tho men, as far as
tho conductor know, left the coaches
and tho engineer was ordered to pro
ceed. Tho train then moved on to
Elkton.
Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never Suspect it.
How To Find Out.
Fill a bottle or common glass with your
water and let it stand twenty-four hours ;
ascuuiiciuorhci.
tlitigimlicutesnii unhealthy con
dition of the kid
neys ; if it stains
your linen it is
evidence of kid
ney trouble ; too
frequent desire
to pass it or pain
in the buck is
also convincing proof that the kidneys
and bludder are out of order.
Whnt To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge ro
often expressed, that Dr. K '. t i
Swamp-Hoot, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary Massage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary elfect of Swamp-Root
is soon reali.ed. It stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.
You may have a sample bottle and a
book Unit tells all
about it, both sent free
by mail. Address Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Hing-
liaiuton, N. Y. When noof flwamp-Uoot,
writing mention this paper and don't
make any mistake, but remember the
name, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, aud
