Doan's Kidney Tills oro for bad back.
They euro every form of kidney Ills,
Prom common backache- to diabetes.
They aro endorsed by Omaha people.
Mr. William Cooper of CIS South 17th

eays: "1 was taken with a severe case of
tho grip and It left me with a lamo and
aching back, especially" bad mornings, when
I could scarcely drag myself about and It
was a hnrd task to get dressed. My work
requires me to stand In wet places nt times
and this had a tendency to mako my back
worse. Seeing Doan's Kidney Tills advor
Used, I procurod them at Kuhn & Co.'s

There was no occasion for tho members

ChrUtle Decline to Sinn.
Yesterday It dovclopcd that tho appar

In adopting tho resolutions calling for the
summoning of a grand Jury was more ap

was adopted without a dissenting vote, v.
H. Christie, ono of tho members of tho
board, Is not In harmony with the action of
his fellows In refusing to testify beforo
tho council committee. Yesterday ho
was tho only member of tho board present
and, whllo there was not a majority of the
commltteo present, he offered to testify as
to his knowledgo of the question beforo tho
board. Asked to mako a statement ho re
plied that bo know nothing of thu affair;
that so far as ho knew tho city ofllcers wero
doing their whole duty, and that he voted
for tho resolution calling for the grand Jury
so that ho might Und out if there wero
something being Illegally dono of which bo
had no knowledge.
Mr. Christie lato In tho morning went to
tho office of the secretary of the Board of
Education to nttend to somo other matters
and whllo there tho secretary presented tho
original of tho letter written to tho com
mlttce for his signature. This was the
first tlmo ho had seen tho letter, ho stated
and ho Indtgnantly refused to sign, saying
that If tho bonrd had desired to express
his sentiments in tho matter tho members
would have consulted htm beforo authorlz
lng tho secretary to send tho letter to the
commltteo. He further said that tho letter
did not express his views, ns ho believed
tho members of tho Hoard of Education
should present themselvos beforo tho com
mltteo and make public tho knowledge they
claim to possess.
Tho original lottcr to tho committee
stgned by tho members of tho Hoard of Ed
ticatlon was kept from the observation of
tho public and a request to tho secretary
that ho glvo the names of tho persons Bign

ho professed to have the signatures o: a

Tho fact that tho persons giving ofnclat
recognition to tho "persistent rumors" had
failed to "make good" when called upon
by tho council seemed to displease I. S
Hascall, chairman of the Investigating
committee, and ho said:
"If thoro Is any legal way in which these
men can bo made to testify they will ap

through with them. Tho charter of tho
city gives ample power to the council to

The council has failed to provide penal

be attended to at the next meeting of the

an ordinance making tt a misdemeanor

that so far as they were concerned It was
as though no committee was In session.

Fred Swanson of Ashland, who for two

CAPTAIN A. W. PERRY RETURNS
Shown KITeelH of Philippine CniiipnlKH,
lint Kxpeclx Teiuperntc .one tn
Itcitnrc Ills llenlth.
Captain A. W. Perry, formerly stationed
In this city, who lsinow on his way from
tho Philippine islands to Fort Ethan
Allen, where ho will bo stationed with tho
Eleventh cavalry, Is stopping at tho Omaha
club, recuperating from tho effects of his
campaign In tho tropics.
Tho captain would hardly bo recognized
by his former acquaintances, as from an
erect and sprightly officer weighing 1S3
pounds ho has become a convalescent from
Illness, weighing 103 pounds, and has per
mitted n beard etrcaked with gray to cover
his face. The captain Is feeling In excel
lent spirits and will only require a suffi
ciently long stay In thi temperate zone to
bring him back to his former vigor. Cap
tain Perry was among thoso who first
went to the Philippines connected with tho
quartermaster's department. He remained
thero until June, when ho left Maulla
for tho United States.
Speaking of the conditions on the Islands
ho said ho did not believe tho rumored
policy concentrating tho troops in tho
larger towns was the proper one for tho
Islands, as smnll bodies of soldiers scat
tered ovor tho country would havo n greater
moral effect on tho Inhabitants, who, for
nil of tho suppression of open hostilities,
aro far from becoming loyal subjects of
tho United States. .,One reason for thn
condition Is their experience of many hun
dred years under Spanish rule, during
which they only received lenient treat
ment when Spnln was too weak to sup
port a strong government, and they look
upon tho leniency of the United States as
a symptom of weakness. The presence of
only a small body of troops has a tendency
to dispel this Illusion.
In tho opinion of the captain it will rc-
qulro tho presenco of Boldlcrs for many
years on tho Ulands to suppress outrago
and Insurrection. Tho natives are sus
ceptiblo of development and are In many
Instances making rapid progress.

W. Lylo Dickey, manager of tho Peoplo's
Ico company of Topeka, who was fined
$200 by tho pollco Judgo of the Kansas
capital for violating an nntl-trust ordi
nance, was for several years a prominent
citizen of Omaha. Whllo hero ho was a roan
of affairs In various directions, being en
gaged In commercial pursuits and hnving
investments in sundry enterprises. Ho was
also well known socially.
During tho recent hot spell Mr. Dickey's
cognomen has been a ' namo to conjuro
with" In Topeka, being so closely asso
ciated with tho high price of Ico. It was
alleged that his company was a trust; that
It was organized for the express purpose
of killing competition and that but for Its
existence Ice could bo had at living prices.
Tho newspapers printed editorials, quoting
statistics to show that tho congealed lux
ury cost nearly twice ns much in Topeka
as in other cities of tho samo class.
Finally a complaint was filed against
Mr. Dickey and tho caso came to trial In
pollco court. Nearly all tho witnesses
subpoenaed by the prosecution refused to
testify. From such evidence as was ad
duced, however, the Judgo concluded that
Dickey was guilty and assessed a fine of
$200. An appeal was at onco taken to the

la In the number of voters required in or
der to proposo a candidate for election.
After considerable discussion it was do
cided that In the province of Havana a
candldato for tho offlco of representative,
governor, provincial legislature, senatorial
elector or presidential elector must bo pro
posed by no fewer than 500 voters; In the
provinces of Santiago and Santa Clnrn by
at least 300; tn tho province of Matanzas
by 200 and in tho provinces of Puerto
Princlpo and Plnar del Itlos 100. Accord
ing to tho original project 1,500 were to
bo required In the province of Havana,
whllo tho numbers for the other provinces
wero In tho same ratio as finally adopted.
Tho chango was proposed by Scnor San
gullly, who contended that to leave tho
project as It stood originally would place
tho nomination of candidates entirely tn
tho hands of political parties, which would
mean that cliques would rule the elec
tions, as Independent candidates would not
bo ablo to collect so many voters to pro
pose them, owing to their not having or
ganizations. COLORADO GEJS SIMMINGT0N
