DOING THEIR DUTY Scores of Hammond Readers Are Learning the Duty of the Kidneys. To filter the blood is the kidneys duty. When they fail to do this the kidneys are sick. Backache and many kidney ills follow; Urinary troubles, diabetes. Doan's Kidney Pills cure them all. Hammond people endorse our claim. Mrs. J. W. Addy of 307 Indiana avenue, Hammond, says: "Why will women suffer from kidney disease and other allied troubles when they can obtain such a grand remedy as Doan's Kidney Pills. Perhaps they were like myself. I felt weak and miserable for a long time but never stopped to ask myself the question, "Are my kidneys the cause of my trouble? I went right on suffering until at last I had to seek relief. I gave every remedy I thought would help me, a trial, but without being benefitted in the least. Finally I heard about Doan's Kidney Pills and how many cases of kidney diseases they had cured, after doctors had failed. I decided to try them and procured a box at Bicknell & Co's. drug store. I improved soon after I began taking them, and before I had finished the contents of one box the benefit I had received wag unmistakable. I used in all three boxes and by that time I was cured. I advise all suffering as I did to try Doan's Kidney Pills." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.

BOARD FORMS JUNKETING PARTY Will go to Danville as Guest of Gavit Railway People. ! TO INSPECT THE NEW GARS Trustees Will Be Shown What New Line Proposes to Do in This Connection. For the purpose of demonstrating to the town board of Gary that the street cars to be used on the streets of the town will be modern and adequate, the entire board, together with other city officials and interested citizens, will form a Junketing party Friday, which will go to Danville .where the cars are under construction, as the guests of the Gary & Interurban. Mr. Frank Gavit, president of the line feels proud of the cars which are soon to ply up and down Broadway and is anxious to let the town officials know what he intends to do for the city along that line. Even if the rails are not the proper size it will hedp to alleviate the ill reeling existing against the road, if the cars are all that could be asked for. Mr. Gavit assured the citizens that the cars are large, long and airy and will be free from the usual shaking and Jolting to which the patrons of the lines are accustomed to in this locality. The party will leave eariy Friday morning and return in the evening. At Danville it is understood that the citizens of the city, or the Commercial club are planning a reception to the visitors at which a dinner will be served. The reports emanating from the Illinois city looks as if some big surprise was about to be sprung when the Garyites come to town. Besides the city officials who will go to Danville, are the members of the committee appointed by the Commercial club who will report as to quality and efficiency of the cars. The came to the board meeting yesterday afternoon with the apparent purpose of wanting to know the "how and why" of the matter of the street railway, but when the trip to Danville was suggested they decided to defer the matter until they could make a more complete report, which will include their opinion of the cars. Mr. Gavit stated today that the cars would have been completed sooner had It not been for the fact that they were compelled to change their height to accommodate the height of the steel structure spanning Broadway on the Gary & Western. "We originally In tended to have the cars unusually high," said Mr. Gavit, "so that there would be plenty of air, space and prevent the bad odors that usually annoy passengers In street cars. Now, however, they will be much lower than was at first planned." The cars will be forty-three feet overall and nearly the size of a large Interurban cars. It is expected that the cars will be shipped to Gary In a few days. Among those who will go to Danville are: Mayor T. E. Knotts, Millard Caldwell and John Sears, trustees; L. L. Bomberger, city attorney; A. P. Melton, city engineer, and the Commercial club's committee, including Attorney Clarence Bretsch, Attorney George Bardon, Attorney C. V. Ridgley, C. H. Maloney and George McGinnity. IS GIVEN HEAVY FINE Joseph Swenski Resists an Officer and is Severely Punished. The next time Joseph Swenski resists an-officer he will probably make sure of his getaway before he does it. Yesterday he resisted Officer Skiba of the South Chicago force and is said to have tried to stab him. The case came up before Judge A. J. Petit, who fined the man $100 and costs upon a charge of resisting an officer, and the other charge of attempted assault was dismissed. Not having the money to pay his fine, the man was taken to the Bridewell, where he will have to spend two hundred days. For resisting an officer this is considered quite a large fine, but Judge Petit says he is determined to educate the law-breakers of South Chicago to obey an officer. TO SUCCEED A. L. BRICK. Question of Calling Special Election to be Decided Today. Governor Hanly said Monday that he would take up, on Wednesday of this week, the matter ' of sepcial election in the Thirteenth congressional district, for the purpose of electing a successor to the late Congressman A. L. Brick. "I see no reason," said the governor, "why a special election should be held there before the time of the regular election. It would incur a great extra expense. But I am not deciding this question now. I will decide it on Wednesday." The governor said he didn't know that he would have any conference with Thirteenth district leaders before giving his decision. DON'T WANT ANYONE BUT GARY MEN EMPLOYED.
