Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
All the blood in your body passes through
your kidneys once evear three minutes.

Pains, aches and rheu

blood, due to nepleeted
kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is

poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin

If you are sick you ca,n make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild

Travels To roil a I. Trias, Oklahom
Kansas, New Mexico Indian Terrl
tori and Arlzoua By av Former Ci
barrua Alan.
Editor Times: According to promise
I write concerning my travel through
Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, New Men
co, Arizona, reserving California for
more convenient time.
On my arrivaUiu Texas, which was
Fort Worth, I found my funds com
pletely exhausted. After spending my
last penny for a cup of coffee and
doughnut one morning, I began
realize my situation, and soon arrived
at the conclusion that it was a very
serious one indeed; however, I did not
despair, notwithstanding the "gas
route" suggested itself to me occasion
ally, which was abandoned as readily
So I finally "soaked" my watch for an
X at a pawnbroker's, and got a square
meal, a shave and a shine, and then
began a tour of the city looking for
clerkship in a store. After calling at
a few business houses I was successful
in securing a position at fair wages 'or
a short time. After that I went
Austin, the capital, situated on the
Coloradq 'river, about 18,000 popula
tion then, which was 1894. Austi
can justly boast of having one ot the
very finest capitals (with, but one or
two exceptions) in the union. All the
granite used in its construction was
from the quarries of the state.
On Sundays I used to go out in the
country about six miles east of Austin
to a well known "rancher" by the
name of Davis, who had lots of fine
mules, broncos and Texas steers. He
and his son would lasso them at a full
run on the head, fore or hind leg, or
even their tail. I hey informed me
that they could lasso a jack rabbit with
equally as much ease. One feature
that made this sport so very interesting
to me was the oaths, etc., he would use
to such great advantage, also the con
tinuous masticating of tobacco and the
frequent "pit-toos."
Texas is very largely populated by the
Irish, Swedes, and Mississippi and
Louisiana guinea negroes. There is
great many Mexicans or half breeds
there also. This latter class is almost
worthless, and barely live by peddling
candies, pecans, tamales, etc.
Ihe weather there is almost as
changeable as lightning. For instance
you might go out some morning in
February when it would be a perfect
Indian summer, and in less than three
quarters of au hour a gale would come
off the Gulf of Mexico, blowing at
about the rate of GO miles per hour,
and very cold. I came near going to
Galveston, and Lad I done so, no doubt
would have met the same fate bun
dreds of others met in that awful West
India hurricane.
1 want to say that no better or
nobler people ever lived than the
native bornTexans. They treated me
princely, and I shall never forget their
hospitality.
From Texas I went through the
Indian Territory. Along by the little
stations I could see crowds of Indians
congregated there to get a glimpse of
the train and its passengers. As they
were the first Indiana I had ever seen,
they looked quite savage to me.
I passed on into Oklahoma Territory
arriving at Guthrie, the capital, which
almost a new city of about 10,000
people. I stopped over there for a few
days, and while there formed the ac
quaintance of a genuine Tar Heel, who
was a lawyer. He had just been out in
the country and brought in two fine
large bears, and nothing would do, but
must dine with him and his family.
Well, I did, and you may rest as
sured that I did justice to Mr. Bear.
My next stop was Newton, Kansas.
ftile in that state I did not come in
contact with any grasshoppers, neither
did I see any "twisters," (cyclones); in
fact, I rather consider myself hcky to
escape them both, and was giaa 10
now when my trail was speeding
down the Santa Fe via La Junta, and
Trinidad, Colorado. Trinidud is situ
ated right in the midst of a mountain
ous asktion, and much coal 19' mined
near the city. It eosjtned to me that
there was a saloon Tor every dozen
inhabitants there. Colorado has long
been notedr her labor troubles, and
Trinidad has furnished er share re
cently. Continuing my journey I
passed by ftanta Fe, the capital, of
ir Mexico, and arriving at Albu
querque, a city of about 25,000 people
ne ordinary hotels and cheap board-
ng house there was well supply with
consumptives, evidently from the east
stales, just hanging around and
THE M
standing outside, sunning themselves
like buzzards oni cold morning wi
wings drooped on an old dead tree.
Albuquerque, like all western towns, is
well supplied with saloons arm gamb
ling dens, Feradventure I visited one
of these places one evening, as
wanted totake in the sights of "the
wild and wooly west," and on one table
alone I'll venture to say that I saw ten
thousand dollars, mostly in .gold 20V
being gambled for with cards. The
western states have long been noted as
a hot bed for tramps and bums; hence,
while my, train was pulling out
Albuquerque it took three or four
policemen and the entire train crew to
put them off, as they were as thick as
hair on a dog's back.
Ooing on down by-way-of the A
F. J. C. crossing, and the great Rio
Grande, I found myself getting into
Arizona. As Indians were pretty
plentiful in that territory, and as an
opportunity afforded me the pleasure,
took supper with them one evening in
a little village which I cannot just re
call now. Their dwelling houses were
constructed of small poles, dabbed well
in between with mud, rendering them
quite warm and comfortable for winter,
and as their door was of dirt, tliat
would make it cool for summer, the
roof was of some kind of small sticks
or poles for rafters, and the boards, or
shingles, were substituted with wheat
straw, which answered the purpose
splendidly. When supper was ready
we all sat down on the bare ground
forming a circle by a low fire, with all
the ancient looking vessels at hand.
The menu consisted of well, it wcul
be pretty dilhcult for one not accus
tomed to Indians to really say what it
was, but I judged that the meat they
pulled apart with their fingers and gave
me, was some kind of dried mutton
The coffee was some kind of a concoc
tion of pop corn, etc., and the bread
was made of mashed corn, without any
seasoning whatever, and baked in an
earthen vessel. I began to survey the
interior of the "mansion," and very
quickly I observed old bows and arrows,
guns and tommyhawks and many
other arms and ancient relics of ancient
type. As neither of us could under
stand the another I concluded that my
stay had been long enough, so I went
to the door, politely bowed, and thus
my experience with the red skins or
"savages" ended.
One evening while our train was tak
ing waier, away down the road where
there was nothing in sight except
bare section house, a passenger and
myself stepped off to walk back a little
ways, and while so doing the train
pulled out at such a brisk speed we
could not overtake it, consequently we
had to remain there nearly three hours
before another train came along. This
all occurred just at the font of a little
mountain, and of all the growlings of
the tigers, the mountain lions, the cries
of panthers, and the bow-wows and
yelpings of coyotes, I ever beard of,
that exceeded all. When the next train
came thundering along we flagged it
down, got aboard and went on our way
rejoicing.
Ai the train passed several little
towns farther down the road, I was in
formed by the conductor that not more
than a decade ago (Uiat was 1895) that
it would have been very unsafe for a
human to have passed there alone and
especially unarmed. Somewhere in
Arizona I beheld the great petrified
man, but as the train stopped a few
minutes only, I was unable to survey it
with any precision ; hence, I cannot
give a detailed account of same.
In the little village of Winslow or
Gallup, I stopped 07er a day and night
and visited the Masonic lodge, and let
me say that Arizona Masons are the
best fellows on this side of Texas, and
are as good as can be produced in the
land anywhere. Can I ever forget
their hospitality? Never.
Westward I traveled unt arriving
The Needles, which borders both,
Arizona and California, aval if there
was ever a more desolate or God-for
saken place an this earth than it. I
have never seen it. It is situated at
the foot of a little mountainous or
sand hill region, a Cheap John hotel
and bar combined, about one or two
general thercbandising stores, a few
cobis or "shacks," with a round house
hfe capacity was two or three small
iron horses.
I put intone night there in one of
those cabins with the engineer of my
train, ajal I assure you it was quite an
experience to exchange thought and
conversation with that good old wes
terner. Trusting, dear Mr. Editor, and old
Tar Heel friend, that this way, to some
extent may amuse and interest the
many readers of your very valuable
paper, I remain.
Very truly yours,
Johs H. Jenkins.

A PERILOUS PIECB OP POLLY.
Atlanta Constitution.
The father of United states Senator
Simmons, of North Carolina, sjbs re
cently assassinated by a negro earned
Alfred Daniel. There was no "excuse
whatever for the foul murder, and but
for the efforts of Senator Simmons him
self the negro would havt been lynched
as eoon ashis crime was made known.
The son of the murdered man stood
between the assassin and the fury of
the people in the neighborhood and ap
pealed to them to allow the law to take
its course in the interest of peace and
good order. ,
The senator' advice prevailed. The
negro was placed in jail and his case
has been tried in the courts, with the
result that he has been condemned for
his crime, which was cold blooded and
wanton in the extreme. He has been
condemned, but he has not been exe
cuted; there has been a stay in the pro
ceedings. His lawyer, at last accounts,
had gone to Washington to apply to
the supreme court for a writ of error,
on the ground that there was discrim
ination against Daniels on account of
his race, the application for the writ of
error alleging that the commissioners
of the county in which the trial took
place had failed to place the names of
negroes in the jury box.
The Washington Post, commenting
on this proceeding, suggests that the
delay in the execution of the law on
such frivolous excuses is provocative of
lynching. Our contemporary would
not have been far wrong if it had gone
a little farther, for there can be no
doubt that the law's delay in many in
stances amounts to an invitation to
those members of a community who
are ready to take the law in their own
hands. There is no claim that the
North Carolina negro had not been
fairly tried and justly condemned. All
the facts of the wanton and cold
blooded crime were notorious. There
were no mitigating circumstances what
ever, and there can be no doubt that
the negro would have been condemned
by a jury of respectable and law-abiding
men of his own race.
Nevertheless, application has been
made to the supreme court for a writ
of error on the ground that there were
no negroes on the jury that condemned
Daniels; and justice is delayed until
the point has been decided. It is dif
ficult to discover any reason for the ap
plication save that of delay, and delay
on such terms merely feeds and fattens
the lynching spirit. The Washington
Post deals with the affair somewhat im
patiently, and yet we are bound to Bay
that its impatience is justified. Ne
groes who have no respect for them
selves may be able to pay attorneys to
create delays of this sort, but a lawyer's
fee is a high price to pay for the peril
of such foolish proceedings.
II Wasn't New York.

A gentleman who had occasion to go
to an inland New England village ten
miles from a railroad was met at the
station by an old fellow who looked as
if he might have just awakened after a
Rip Van Winkle sleep. His horse and
buggy were in keeping with their
owner's ancient appearance.
"Here we air at last," said the driver,
when they finally came to three houses
and a blacksmith's shop.
'Thai isn't much of a place, is it?"
said the depressed stranger, looking
around.
Oh, you don't see all o' it from

BLACK' KL'LOOV OF HILL.
Sunny South.
When fhe-tnonument to. Senator Hill
was unveiled in Atlanta in 1886 Colonel,
J. C. C. Black, of Augusta Ga., deliv
ered the address of the occasion. We
select from the speech of Colonel Biack
this magnificent paragraph, which pic
tures the condition which existed in
Georgia during the dark period of fed
eral usurpation and shows haw Senator
Hill, in this crisis of the state's history,
became the man of the hour. Turning
from an eloquent description of the
scenes that followed the surrender, he
said.
"But there are trials severer than war
and calamities worse than the defeat of
arms. The south was to pass through
such trials and be threatened with such
calamities by the events of this period.
. . . .What little of property remained
was held by no tenure but the capric
ious will of the plunderer; liberty and
life were at the mercy of the conqueror
the sanctity of home was invaded; vice
triumphed over virtue; ignorance ruled
in lordly and haughty dominion over
intelligence; the weak were oppressed
the unoffending insulted, the fallen
warred on; truth was silenced; false
hood, unblushing and brszon, stalked
abroad unchallenged; anxiety filled
every heart; apprehension clouded
every prospect; despair shadowed every
hearthstone; society was disorganized
legislatures dispersed; judgra torn from
their benches by the strong arm of mil
itary power; statutes subverted, arreete
made, trials held and sentences pro
nounceu without evidence; madness
luBt, hate and crime of every hue, de
Rant, wicked and diabolical, ruled the
hour, until the very air was rent with
the wail: 'Alas, our country sinks be
neath the yoke!' . . . Among all the
true Bons of Georgia and of the south
in that day one form stands conspicions
No fear blanched his cheek, no danger
daunted his courageous soul. I'nawed
by power, unbribed by honor, he stood
in the midst of the peril that environed
him, brave as Paul before the Sanhe
drim, ready for bonds or death, true as
the men at Runny mede and as eloquent
as Henry kindling the fires of the revo
lution. His crested helmet waves high
where the battle is fiercest. The pure
rays of the sun reflected from his glit
tering shield are not purer than the
fires that burn in the breast it covers.
His clarion voice rang out louder than
the din of battle, like the bugle blast
of the highland chief, resounding over
hill and mountain and glen, summon
ing his clanB to the defence of home
and liberty. It was the form and voice
of Hill."
Col. Black has several times repre
sented the tenth district of Georgia in
congress of the United States. He is
now piacticing law at his home in Au
gusla.

The Inside Inn, the hotel inside the

Plans are being perfected td have a
series of Sunday services celebrated
there tfiat will out-rival the days of
Moody and Sankey, when the singing
of stirring gospel hymns in the early
eighties of the nineteenth century re
sounded throughout the civilized world.
All ministers of St. Louis have agreed
to sink lines of denominational differ
ence and work for the church universal
in what cannot fail to be the most pro
lific field from which a religious harvett
has ever been gathered. To this end
they have offered their services and
have appointed committees to definite
ly arrange plans of procedure.
These services will be in most capa
ble bands and will be addressed by
leading clergymen, scholars, theolo
gians and other learned men prominent
in their several fields throughout t he
United States and Europe.
A committee has been appointed to
procure speakers of all denominations
from St. Louis and the country al
large, who will lie in attendance at the
Fair.
The services will partake of popular
talks and sermons on live topics of a
generally religious nature and will be
further enlived by the best music. The
musical features promise to be unus
ually attractive and to that end the
musical bureau of the Exposition will
lend every possible assistance.
In brief, they will be attractive, in
teresting, short and to the point.
The clergy welcome this opportunity
to give visitors from all points of the
compass a chance to hear the greatest
of the country's pulpit orators.
Most important is this general Evan
gelical Campaign, The religious or
ganizations are making plans to take
special cars of the crowds that will be
free to give attention to religious ser
vices owing to the closing of the Fair
on Sunday.
Participation in these servie'es will be
shared only by men of acknowledged
reputation and standing. To that end
it is earnestly requested that all such
personages who contemplate visiting
me exposition shall send their names
to Rev. C. Polk Goodson, of St. Loii'B,
in whose hands are the general ar
rangements.
