Don't Neglect the Kidneys
The subtle and delusive character of kidney disease
is well known. The patient and even the doctor often
fail to recognize its existence until the disease has
become well established, little thinking the backache,
headache, indigestion, weakness of heart, loss of ap
petite and that tired feeling Is caused from kidney
trouble ; the kidneys failing to perform their function
of removing the poisonous matter from the blood.
Warner's Safe Kidney and liver Remedy
which soothes and heals the inflamed parts and grad
ually restores them to their normal condition. You
can be among the thousands who have testified to

provement Over Previous Week.
TEAMS GETTING ORGANIZED
Members Are "Working: Down to the
Serious Bldo of Wlnuln- and
ICcrplnsr Up ISarlr Scores
of the Season.
The strenuous life ot carnival week
didn't seem to have any effect oh
Omaha's ten-pin shooters .as far as scores
are concerned. All bowlers showed a re
markable Improvement over' the previous
week. Boreral large team totals were
piled up and a tew -Individual totals o"f
high caliber wero registered. Chief
among the scores of tho last week wa
the 2S8 single gamo rolled 'b FlcronetUt
In the Booater leagus Tuesday night
This is not only this season's highest
game, but the highest game ever rolled
In the Booster league. In order for this
aoore to be overcome It will bo necessary
for a player to mako eleven successive
strikes, which Is Improbablo in a league
game. Another feature of the week's
rolling was tho COT totat registered by
ronton In the Booster league. Ills score
stands out more In as much as It fol
lows a 673 total Just rolled by hlra tho
week before.
Iast week's rolling in the Booster
league resulted In a three-oornered tlo
between the Chris Lycks, National Re
fining company and Letsys.
In the Gate City leaguo tho Stars Tri
umphs took a brace and made a show
ing that this toAin Is capable ot making.
Tho Lithographers, FaJrmount Cream
ery and Oas leagues on the Morrison
alleys wero on dock with some exciting
contests and with the some display of
enthusiasm that they started the sea
son with.
Over at the Metropolitan alleys the
Commercial and Metropolitan leagues 'oc
cupied the runways. No records were
broken, but all gomes were hotly con
tested, making It appear. that tho races
will bA cose.
Last week found the Omaha league the
all-star leaguo organised and preparing
for their grand opening at the end of
this week. The Greater Omaha Bowling
association also got .busy and the sec
retary has called a meeting for this aft

after Densmore had taken two of the
three previous ones.
There was no resumption of tho Buck
eye stake, five heats of which were con
tested on Thursday. It was discovered
that Peter McCormlck hau no right to

Denies Crops Damaged
Because of Ditcli
WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.(Speolai Tele-gram.)-Chnrges
made by residents near
Kearney, Neb., that their lands and crops
had been damaged by seepago from wa
ters impounded by the Pathfinder dam
were denied today by AcUng Direotor
Davis of the reclamation service. Many
complaints have cpme to the .department
from farmers near Kearney that sub.
Irrigation from the ditch had Injured
their products and W. W. Barney ot
Kearney recently set forth in a letter
the conditions he claimed caused the
trouble.
Acting Director Davis declared today
that on tho contrary conditions had been

rangements to the contrary, at the full
rates laid down In the Underwood tariff
act unless they were Imported Into th
United States in ships of American reg
istry, in which case they will be en
titled to a differential of E per cent
The maximum duties will not apply to
goods from Prussia, because ot the con
tinuance In force of the old treaty with
that country, but goods from all other
parts of Germany would have to pay the
additional E per cent Likewise, the Cana,
dlan shipping on lakes will be charged
full rates for their cargoes Imported into
the United States while similar goods
brought across the lakes In American
ships will enjoy the 6 per cent remission.
The officials are now seeking an an
swer to the question as to whether rates
will apply to the enormous storo of goods
now held In bond In New York for entry
under the new tariff law.
The Immediate effect of this stand on
the part of the government is expected
to be hasty application from the coun
tries adversely affected for a revision or
their existing treaties with tho United
States'. Russia will also bo obliged to
nee-otlate a completely new treaty to
replace that denounced last year, If It
