July 11.- Three bloody encounters between troops OLD PEOPLE AND THEHl TROUBLES 01 J Teople bave more of the tiaina, aches and diacoiuforU of life than do the young. This it perfectly natural, be cause their blood is not so vigorous, nor their powers of resistance so great, ana troubles that a younger, healthy constitu tion could resist often afflict them. Paring the elrll war I ootitraoted Ca tarrh and suffered with it alTeeta for xuany yeara. I tried various remedies and doctors, but with no good result. One day I found one of your pamphlets and read it carefully. I decided 8. S. 8, waa the medioiae I was in need of and I began its use at onot. My health was dreadful, and as I waa getting along In years, I had moat of the paiaa and all. meats inoident to that time ot life; but after taking this groat remedy tor awhile I began to improve and soon found ruy elf a strong, well man. I am now more than 75 years of age, but my health is good, because I take an occasional bottle of B, S. S. Hethiug equals it ea a tonl; and blood purifier, and I recommend it to those needing such a medicine. Tordyoe, Ark. L. 8. LOUiJUDOE. Rheumatic pains, sleepless nights, fickle appetites, etc., are not imaginary with old people, as is sometimes thought. They need a medicine that will supply their blood with its lost vigor and build up and strengthen their constitutions. S. S, S. is the ideal remedy for Old Peo ple. It is made entirely from roots, herbs and barks, and does not Injure the system in the least as do those medicines containing mineral ingredients. & S. 8. is gentls in lis action, purifying the blood of all poisons and relieving old age of its discomforts b y supplying a ro bust, healthy PURELY VEGETABLE. constitution. It is the greatest of all tonics for increasing the appetite, toning up the stomach, promoting tne di gestion and building up the entire system.

Nwt n"a SUIT AGAINST REAPER TRUST Rodney B. Swift, a Stockholder, Files a Bill for an Aoconntinr. WANTS VOTING TRUST SET ASIDE Complaint Alleges that Company Ac cepted Illegal Rebates from Railroads Amoantlasr to Five Mlllloaa. CHICAGO, July 11. Another attack was made this afternoon upon the Interna tional Harvester company by Rodney B. Swift, formerly head of the experimental department of the McCormlck branch of the harvester company. Swift's connec tion with the company was severed several months ago and suit commenced against him by the officials of the company, who alleged that he-had defrauded them In the sale of a patent In his bill died this after noon. Swift, aa a stockholder, demands an accounting from the company and demands that the court force the company to cease taking rebates from railroad companies and also compel the company to return to the railroads moneys, said by Swift to have been Illegally exacted from the railroads In the past Swift declares that up to September 30, 1902, the McCormlck branch of the harvester company alone forced the railroads to pay It through rebates and the operation of the Illinois Northern road a sum In excess of 33,000,000. t'p to the same date, the money received in rebates by the Piano branch of the harvester company through the agency of the Chi cago, West Pullman Southern railroad amounted to 3500,000. Since September 30, 19"i2, it Is declared that nine other railroad companies have been making payments of rebates to the International Harvear company under the guise of an alleged division of freight rates with the Illinois Northern company. Swift asserts that the alleged illegal re bates made to the International company since 1902 amount to more thar 31,000,000. Details of Organisation. Swift goes Into the details of the or ganisation of the International Harvester company, declaring that shortly after Its formation an arrangement was made be tween President Cyrus H. McCormlck, Charles Deerlng, George W. Perkins and William C. Lane to the effect that all the stock of the international company should be put in the charge of the first three men as trustees for voting purposes until 1902. Swift demands that the voting agreement be terminated by the court. It Is further declared In the bill that the business of the International Harvester company Is of an extremely profitable na ture. He asserts that harvesting ma chines can be produced and delivered by the company for 357. The company re celves 3 for them from agents, who In turn, sell them for 3125. Swift says that all his demands for an examination of the company's books have been refused. It Is further declared that the unlawful course of the directors of the corporation has damaged the harvester company to the extent of $6,000,000, which amotrht Swift demands that the directors pay to tho company. Demands of Injunction. The injunction demanded by Swift asks that the court prevent the purchase by the company of any manufacturing plants when the purpose ot the purchase Is in whole or In part the suppression of com petition; use of any money or property by the International ; Harvester company for the defeat, of the enactment of any law by ' any legislative body In the . United States or elsewhere, or for corruptly in fluencing elections, or the work of taxing bodies; combination with the Plymouth Cordage company for monopoly of the binder twine trade of the United States. No time, has been set for the hearing of the case In court. INVESTIGATINGASPHALT CASE President Appoints Chicago Man to Visit Venesnela and Make Full Report. CHICAGO. July 11. William J.
