Most folks forget that the kidneys, like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged and need a flushing occasionally, else we have backache and dull misery in the kidney region, severe headaches, rheumatic twinges,, torpid liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders. You simply must keep your kidneys active and clean, and the moment you feel an ache or palu in the kidney region, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good drug store here, take a tablespoonful In a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combin,"! with lithia, and is harmless to flush pegged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neutralizes the acids In the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salt is harmless; inexpensive; makes a delightful effervescent lithiawater drink which everybody should take now and then to keep their kidneys clean, thus avoiding serious complications. A well-known local druggist says he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe In overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble. (Advertisement.)

POSTPONE SENTENCE

IN PASSPORT CASE Sentence of Gustave Cook and Rich ard Madden in the fraudulent pass port case has been postponed. Both men were found guilty of conspiracy to defraud the government by a federal jury after six hours of deliberation. They recommenMd mercy to the pris oners. Richard P. Stegler, to whom the false passport was Issued, turned state's evidence. In the trial no men tion was made of Captain. Boy-Ed, na val attaches of the German embassy In Washington, who Stegler first charged furnished him with money to go to England as a spy. found by a physician was in a stupor When revived he attempted to slash his wrlat with a pocketknife. Arrested for Drunkenness. Saturday he was arrested for in toxicatlon, and yesterday was arrested again on the same charge. Shortly after his second arrest a warrant was is sued charging him with having issued a fraudulent check for 557. Charges of having embezzled $400 of the funds of the insurance company he worked lor were aso preferred.

On both occasions, he said, he was chart? ed with misdemeanors, once for carry ing a concealed weapon. Addicted to Gambling. "Gambling has been the cause of most of young Grove's troubles," Mr Blue said today. "He told me that his recent attempt to kill himself resulted from worrying over his shortage with the Insurance company. He said he was afraid he would be sent to the penitentiary. "I suggested to him that he might be mentally Irresponsible, asserting my belief that no man in his right mind would attempt suicide. To my surprise he took issue with me on this point. He said that there was such a thing as the desire of the soul to leave the body, and he further justified selfdestruction under certain conditions. He said that when he attempted to kill himself last week his determination was premeditated and that he attempted to carry out his purpose while in full control of his mental faculties "I know but little of Grove's past, except that at one time he was pastor of the College Avenue Baptist church, Indianapolis, and that he entered the ministry with a prospect of a brilliant career.

(Continued from page 1.) hands are not re-employed. An officer of the local T. M. A. said today tbat the stage hands at a Dayton theatre where the Prince of Pilsen Is to show tonight have been instructed to walk out if these four men are not on the Job. The crowd that filled the Gennett last night shows that Richmond appreciates a good show when one comes here, but any theatrical company assumes a serious risk in venturing into this city. In city court this morning Mike Carroll and Joseph Burns, two Prince of Pilsen stage hands, were arraigned on the charge of assault and battery on Edward Walse, also of that company. The case against Carroll was dismissed because the evidence showed he tried to act as a peacemaker. While Walse was superintending the loading of scenery Burns called him a vile name and when asked for an explanation hit Walse in the jaw. Mix In Hotel Lobby. A little later the two men mixed It again at the Arlington hotel. Burns was fined $10 and costs. Witnesses who appeared against Burns were Perry J. Kelly, manager of the company, Frank Buell, advance agent and Allen Dody, a member of the chorus.

When the company's orchestra be gan to rehearse about 6:30 last even ing they were informed by Theodore Perry, Indianapolis, organizer of the Musicians union, tbat if they did not walk out their cards would be taken away from them. The company's stage hands were instructed by Charles Slagel, fourth vice president of the Theatrical Mechanics union, who also lives in Indianapolis, that they must not work In a non union theatre. Similar Instructions were received by telegraph from the union headquarters in New York. Piano Produce Discord. When a member of the company announced to the audience that there would be no orchestra and those who did not want to remain could get their money back he was hissed roundly by the indignant gallery, but very few people left. A choruB man was drafted to play the piano and the discord he produced kept the audience and performers shuddering with agony. Manager Murray agreed to sign a contract with the Musicians union before the curtain went up but flatly refused to recognize the Theatrical Mechanics union, so all negotiations were called off. He said today that he was positively assured yesterday afternoon by the manager of the comnanv and the orchestra leader that the orchestra would play at the performance. It is calculated that 19.000,000 tons of carbon, most of it in the form of coal, is the average yearly amount burned In large cities. SAFER CREDITS The Regional Bank's New Measure Will Help Business Men in Many Ways. Better credits, rather than an extension of credit, is the much to be desired effect which the federal reserve act will have on business. The new regional banks will exercise a useful function in assisting member banks to improve the character of their loans.

The Light, Heat 6 Power company officials have never been satisfied with the rates now operative in Richmond and the prospect of a ' further reduction In rates has always been a nightmare to them. Now that a very high valuation has been established on the municipal plant a ray of hope has filtered through their gloom, tor they see In this action a possibility for a rate increase instead of a decrease. Mayor Robblns was not In the city today but upon his return it is expected that he. will at once call a meeting of the members of the special committee he appointed last week to take charge of presenting the city's case in the rate-making hearing before the commission, with the end in view of making some determined effort to have the commission cut down the valuation estimate for the city plant. The Light, Heat & Power company is prepared to vigorously combat any such effort.
