Kejuris Are Coinlug In From All Sections of ilie Country.
There is not a medicine sold in Indiana to-day that stands as high in the estimation of our home people as Morrow's Kid-ne-oids. Not only in Indiana are Morrow's Ivid-ne-oids achieving great success, but good reports come from all sections of the country, and these reports come because the people have been cured of kidney and urinary disorders, just the same as hundreds in this state have been cured,
Mrs. Sarah M. Langton, 302 Banna street, Logansport, lnd says: lam well aware that everyone has trouble enough without listening to mine, but I hope by telling mine I shall instruct others how to avoid theirs. For the past ten years I have been troubled with my back: it began with kidney backache the trouble increased and urinary disturbances followed. I had sharp, shooting pains and Bwellinir of the limbs, which became very painful. I was treated by different physicians acd took several kinds of kidney pills and kidney cures without being benefited in the least I procured a box of Morrow'6 Kid-ne-oids and used them exactly according to the directions and after the first box was used I grew less nervous and rested well at night. I am glad to continue with them, believing- that I have found a genuine cure."
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are not pills, but yellow tablets, and sell at 50 cents a box at all druggists, and (Jeo. W. Steele's drugstore.

Funeral of Mrs. John M. Butler. Indianapolis Journal'. The funeral of Mrs. John M. Butler was held yesterday afternoon in the lecture room of the Second Presbyterian church. There wore many beautiful floral offerings, which were placed about the casket. Above the casket were hung the portraits of her husband and son, wreathed in cmilax. The service was conducted by Rev. J, A. Milburn, who read a tribute to the noble character of Mrs. Ilutler.
The Trustees Are Kicking. Under the new law passed by the last legislature the township has to pay SI 50 per month for each pupil transferred to th« common grades in the city schools and 83 for pupils entering high scho .1!. Under the old law the people who had their children transferred 6imply had their property put on the city tax duplicate for city school taxes and the total cost to the township this year under this arrangement was ouly about 8500 The new law will make the cost, if the same number of pupils are transferred, $1,300, which amount goes into the city school fund. The trustees are objecting strenuously to this charge and have not yet decided what to do in the matter, as they claim that the law is unconstitutional. The matter will come up for discussion next Monday at the meeting of the county board of education and some action will probably taken.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least "one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its Binges and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Ball's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upm the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building uu the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in Its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it falls to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address, F. J.

THE NEW LAWS.
They are Now In Kilect— Some Important Changes to Be Noted.
Gov. Mount has proclaimed the new laws to be in effect all the laws enacted by ttie general assembly of 1899 are in force. Mauy of the important laws contained emergency clauses and went in force as soon as they had been signed by the governor. Many other important ones were not be in effect until the governor's proclamation had been issued. Among these are the county reform law, which creates a county council in each county of the state, to consist of seven members The members must be voters and resident freeholders, and cannot hold any other public ollica. They shall not be interested in any contract of the county under penalty of a fine of 31,000 and imt risonment for not more than six months. The council will transact business for the county, and each county officer is bound to submit to the council estimates of the expenses of his office for the ensuing year. The first election of the council will occur in November. The members are to be appointed meantime by the judge of the circuit court.
The township reform bill is another that goes into effect with the proclamation of the governor. It provides for an advisory board in every township of the state of three resident freeholders and qualified voters of the township, whose duty shall be to fix the tax levy, receive estimates from the township trustee of his probable expenditures for the next year and to make inquiries into the necessity for proposed expenditures of the township. The board may make additional appropriations in cases of emergency.
In the line of county administration, also, is the law requiring county commissioners to have on file in the auditor's otlice plans and specifications for proposed work before they may let contracts for such work—for building any court house, jail or othei county or township building. -The act also provides for the publication for at least six weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in the county, of the letting of the contract, and for the posting of notices of such letting in five public places in the county. The letting of a bridge contract shall be advertised in a similar manner for at least two weeks before the contract is let. The commissioners must also let a contract to the lowest responsible bidder and must require all contractors to give a bond, on which any unpaid material man or workmen may maintain action. Auy commissioners violating this act are liable to a fine of not less than 8500 and not .liine than 81,000, each, to which may be added imprisonment for a period of not more than Bis months.
The acts also provide for the ap« pointment of a fee and salary commission, wirch appointment has talroady been made by the governor. The work of the commission will bsgin when the laws go into effect, and its work will be that of fixing a complete system of fees and salaries for every public officer in the state and to make a report of its work at the next session of the general assembly.
After the new laws are in force any county may offer rewards for the apprehension of criminals whenever the board of county commissioners shall be satisfied that a murder or lynching has been committed in the county, and the perpetrator or perpetrators of 6uch outrage have escaped to parts unknown. The reward to be offered must not be in excess of 8500.
The pharmacy law will not be effective until July 1, after which time all persons who sell medicines or poisons in any manner than that specified by the act, Bhall be liable to a fine of from 85 to 8100 for each offense.

THE CYCLONE.
Charley Handel Writes of the Heart I Storm at KirksviUe, Missouri,
Charley Handel, who is a senior iu the osteopathic school at Kirksville, Mo., writes his mother as follows concerning ttie great cyclone there Thursday evening: 'KIRKSVII.LE, Mo., April 27, 1S99 Dear Mother:—This has been a terri ble evening here One of the most terrible cyclones just passed over he-re. While I was sitting at the supper table I heard it come up. It had been roaring all day, and I never saw such a terrible sight in all my life. It was about one mile square I at once thought of Mrs. Still, sisier and baby, all alone at home with a terrible cyclone raging. I dashed ana run for dear life, right through the raiu. It happened that it struck and passed just beyond us and I got on the edge of it. If you never saw or heard a cyclone you can't imagine its awful effects. It is now reported there are twenty-six killed and many more terribly hurt. I helped lay out several of my deareBt friends, who wore terribly mangled Several members of my class were killed—one a married man He was killed, his wife's collar bone and several ribs broken, and his little baby had its cheek torn off. And just think, ho was going to Brooklyn and open an office. He was one of the best members of my class. Others had arms broken and torn oil:. Some bad a whole side of the face cut off. O, you can't imagine how terrible it was.
Thank the goodness, I escaped without a bruise A big piece of roof came near falling on me, but it didn't, and how thankful your little boy i6. ".Viy clothes are all smeared with blood, from helping carry the poor unfortunates who had to pass out of this world. Just think, one ltvdy was sitting in the house and her head was torn off. It blew one square away and was there found. Another member of my class had a little girl who was blown clear away and cannot be found. Many handsome residences were picked up and blown into splinters, and the east side of the town is in a terrible wreck. Houses were thrown into each other. All this just happened an hour ago and to-morrow I'll tell you more of it. Well, I must take this to the midnight train. "With kind regards, your little son,
CHARLES.
"P. S.— Just received my 83,000 insurance policy to-day. Came near using so soon."
Death of Mrs. Cochran.
Francis Cochran, wife of Lew Cochran, died Monday at 12:30 o'clock at her home 7 miles north of Crawfordsville. She was forty-five years of age and had been sick for a year with lung trouble. A husband and two children are left to mourn her loss. The funeral was conducted by Rev. Plunkett Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock at Young's Chapel. Interment at Oak Hill.
A Goodly Pile.
MrB. Frances Cheek, of Greencastle, whose husband was kifled in the Motion wreck north of this city in 1893, and who got a judgment of $5,000 against the Monon, has just had a judgment against tbe Illinois Central railroad for 314,000 affirmed by the supreme court. She was hurt while getting off a train on the railroad mentioned some time since.
Get Your Eyeg Open.
You may, for years, have been troubled with your stomach. Many articles of food eaten by you may cause distress for hours after eating, a fullness, etc. This is suggestive of dyspepsia and sooner or later, unless you do something to correct the evil, you will find yourself a confirmed dyspeptin. A small dose of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin taken after each meal will give greater relief than anything you can get.
