There's a certain way to find relief; A sure way to be cured. Doan's Kidney Pills will do it Hammond people endorse this claim. Mrs. Maggie Heckelman, 414 Truman avenue, Hammond, Ind., says: "For years I suffered from kidney disease. The pains in my back were almost unendurable, and thers was a feel ing that I can hardly describe, a sort nf dull dragging, bearing down pain that at times was terrible. I had no strength, and in the morning when I first got up would be ao tired, weak and languid that J could hardly do my housework. Whenever I caught a cold It would settle in my kidneys thus aggravating the trouble. A friend advised me to try Doan's Kidney Pills and I bought a box at Bicknell & Co.'a Srug store. Before I had taken half 9f the contents, I noticed a great improvement In my condition and I steadily grew better until at last I was cured entirely. I have not had any return of the trouble since, although the cure was performed several months SO." For sale by all dealers. Price 60 cents.

Board of Public Works

- Holds Regular Meeting Today. The board of public works at its regular session this morning accepted the bond of A. M. Turner for the ne-i eessary grading to be done In his first and second additions. Ever since Mr; Turner closed his deal with the Erie Railroad company for the Calumet ave nue property, he has been pushing the preliminary work with the idea of get ting the subdivisions into proper shape as soon as possible. The contract of O'Shea and Shea for the Wood street sewer was accepted. The clerk was instructed to adver tise for bids on fifty tons of egg and range hard coal to be delivered to the various fire stations. POLIIEGS HURT GONGERT But Hammond Male Chorus Expects to Have RecordBreaker in May. The Hammond Male Chorus realized quite a tidy sum at its recent concert and it has already begun work on the second concert to be given In the Towle Opera Houfe In May. '. It proposes to give the best concert at that time that has ever been heard here, and plans are under way for some original features. The financial panic and the dtstrac-J tlons of a national political campaign seem to have no effect on the devotion and enthusiasm of this organization. FIRST PAY DAY SINGE PASIC. WAS QUIET ONE J. he first payday at the Standard 1 Steel Car company's plant since the recent panic was a quiet one. The police anticipated some trouble' but did not have any. There was a little drunkenness but the saloons were not as well filled as usual. It I rumored that the first payday did not result in as large a distribu tion of wages as was expected on ac count of the fact that many of the worklngmen were urged! to pay their accumulated rent to the Standard com pany before settling other bills. The spirit ofeconomy seems to be on the s.ettlemf' land the people therei are saving t J money Instead of spendtog it frfishly. The saloons, ofj wnicn many nre run ny irresponsible and lawless men, have not yet become the centers of crime that they are ex pected to become when the workinmen get a surplus of money but the police are expecting trouble sooner or later. There were more foreigners seen in the business districts of Hammond Sat urday night than for some time and they did put some money into circu lation. BAD WRECK ON THE NICKEL PLATE LAST NIGHT.

It is not known how the accident happened, but it is known that a large number of cars were piled up and that wrecking crews have not had as difflcult a problem to deal with in a long time. Success. There are two reasons for success as there are two for failure, and these two,.

Training rules were abandoned and with the football team there you can imagine how line plunges and end runs were made on the eatables. .
