Women utter these words over and over ajjain, but continue to drag1 along1 and suffer with aches in the small of the back, pain low down in the side, bearing-down" pains, nervousness and no ambition for any task. Miss Maude JA orris J) They do not realize that the back the mainspring of woman's organism, and quickly indicates by aching a diseased condition of the female organ or kidneys, and that the aches and pains will continue until the cause ia removed. Lydia E. Finkham's Vegetable Compound has been for many years the one and only effective remedy in such cases.

It speedily cures female and kidney disorders and restores the female organs to a healthy eondition. I have suffered with female troublet for over two years, suffering intense pain each month, my back ached until it seemed aa though it would break, and I felt so weak all over that I did not find strength to attend to my work but had to stay in bed a large part of the first two or three days every month. I would have sleepless nights, bad dreams and severe headaches. All this undermined my health. "We consulted anoJJ farnil physician, who advised that I try Lydia E.

From a measurement made August 1, the total volume of the Colorado was found to be 27,000 second-feet, which is equivalent to acre-feet in twenty-four hours. All of this water now flows down the Imperial canal and discharges into the KalOn sea, the old channel of the river De-low the heading of the canal Win dry.

Half the nervousness, half the irritability that so commbn in everyday life, is really sickness, and in most cases a condition that accompanies kidney trouble. It is the work of the kidneys to keep the blood free from acid and other poisons, but when the kidneys are sick, and not doing their duty, the uric acid-poison permeates the body, and attacks body, brain and nerves.

The irritation causes nervousness, irritability, headache, dizzy spells; makes you languid, unfit for work, and inclined to worry over trifles. Besides, there is nothing more annoying than a bad back, and backache is the most common sign of kidney trouble. You feel lame and tired in the morning, suffer day and night with a dull aching in the back, and It hurts to stoop or bend or lift. Keep your temper cool, and get the kidneys well. No person can feel cheerful and healthy if the kidneys are the least bit affected.

A few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills, taken in the beginning, will set the kidneys right. Continued treatment Aires cases of long standing. DOan's Kidney Pills are for the kid- I DOAN'S Sold by all dealers. Price 5o cents. Had a Peculiar Fondness for Dogs and Cats.

Reports were made to the authorities Friday afternoon that the old. one-eyed Chinaman who lived in a shack on the north bank of the Irrigating canal, In West Yuma, had not been seen for several days, and it was believed that he was dead, says the Yuma Sun. As he had several dogs, none of the neighbors cared to go to the house. Marshal Anderson and Constable Martinez went to the house and called out, but received no answer. As the dogs showed fight, the officers were compelled to shoot four of them, which frightened the rest away, before they dared venture near the house.

When they finally entered, they found the old man dead. Tho coroner's jury found that he had died of old age and lacft of care. The deceased was a singular and well known character, who had livrd in and about Yuma for many years. He was a Buddhist or some other kind'of religious crank, and was accustomed to gather crippled and homeless cats and dogs, feeding and caring for them. He gathered scraps from the restaurants to feed his pets and his few chickens, and might be seen carrying baskets ov buckets of this fetid on a pole slung over his shoulder.

He would never kill or sell a chicken, and the proceeds from the sale of eggs and a few vegetables which he raised, irrigating his garden by carrying water in a bucket, "i supplied living. Some years ago, when the city marshal went to the old man to collect dog tax, he found thirty-six dogs and probably twice as many cats. He had money enough to pay for only ten of the dogs, and cried like a child when the officer shot' the remaining twenty-six. KANSAS CITY MARKETS Review ef Prices and Conditions of the WeeK. Kansas City, Sept.

9. (Special.) Last week was generally satisfactory to cattle sellers, the market on steers, including grassers and stockers and feeders, being about steady all weeK, and closing up strong at the end of the week. Cows sold 5c to 15c lower after Tuesday, and veal calves broke 50c to $1.00, affecting light weight calves the most. The run was 64.000 head, including 10.000 calves, sflid the supply was liberal, at 19,000 cattle and 2500 calves. The market is steady to 10c lower, grass steers getting the full decline, cows weak, stockers and feeders barely steady.

The feature last week, outside of the big decline on calves, was the strong demand for stockers and feeders: 650 carloads went to the country, and the number remaining In the pens was reduced 1600 head, as compared with the prelous Saturday. Several shipments of mountain Color-ad oes were hero last week. Good killing steers, around 1200 pounds, sell at $4.50 to $4.75: cows. $2.65 to yearlings and to $3.75. Some common Xew Mexico stockers sold at $2.60 to Panhandle 2-yearolds, cows.

$2.25 to bulls, $1.85 to calves, at the decline, $3.00 to $5.25, including all weights. Killing lambs lost 15c to 25c last Tuesday, but have remained steady since; sheep and feeding lambs unchanged from a week ago. Supply is better, 30,000 last week. 10.000 here yesterday; market steady. Utah lambs ell at $6.75.

to $7.40: Arizonas lately at $7.00 to feeding lambs, $6.30 to Idaho yiirling wethers and ewes, at $5.40 to $5.50 for the country; Utah yearlings to killers at $5.35 to $5.75: wethers and ewes, mixed, $5.20 to ewes, $4.75 to $5.15. The larger receipts are welcome and are relieving the urgent demand from the country for all classes of stuff, from lambs to breeding ewes, the call from which source is almost unlimited.

Chi-' cago Tribune. A CONSTANT ANNOYANCE IBNEY Fo st er-M i lbu rn Buffalo, All Is Quiet at Cananea and No Trouble Is Expected.

The visit of the Maricopa county delegations to the camp of the Cananea Copper company at Cananea following the adjournment of the territorial conventions at Bisbee gave those making the journey an opportunity- to study the reported revolutionary movement at close There were some in the party who were not aware of the story which had been put in circulation by certain sensational papers but when an explanation was made to them they v. ere greatly surprised. It would be hard to find a more peaceable mining camn in all the west than was Cananea Friday of last week, the day the excursionists visited the city. There was nowhere to be seen anything which could have been construed even by the most skeptical as a sign of impending danger. There was apparent on every hand a general feeling of in-dignat'on over the published reports.

During the stay of the party in Cananea one of its number paid a visit to General Torres, In command of the military of the state. He was received with the greatest of respect and courtesy. Tho conversation naturally drifted to a discussion of the reported revolutionary uprising and the Mexican commander discussed the affair with great freedom. "What the object of the attack on Cananea by American newspapers is." said the general, "1 cannot tell. It is hard for me to conceive anything so ridiculous as the report that 600 armed men were running through i.

the streets here killing and burning being believed by outside people. It would be a very difficult matter for 200 people to get together here with anything like hostile intent and not be elspersed before they had gone fifty paces. Ui. de-other circumstances I would i3" attention to the report, but circulated as it is, among thousands and hundreds of thousands of people the world over, the matter becomes serious. I hope the visitors to Cananea will make every effort to tell Just what they see and this will go a long ways toward refuting it." A leading business man of Cananea in speaking of the matter said: "Every time an incompetent miner 'gets the can' here he leaves the camp, and on going out assumes a scared expression, gasping for breath and with eyes rolling with fright, tells a gaping crowd that he is the advance guard of the crowd fleeing across the border.

'The Mexicans have ordered all Americans out and are parading the streets with guns, shooting down defenseless they say, and are believed by some who ought to have moie sense." The indignation among the people In Cananea ran so higli Friday that it would without doubt have gone hard with the writer of the article had he been there. Tar and feathers was the least punishment mentioned. and a worse fate would very probably have been meted out to him. Instead of Cananea being in the throes of a revolution as reported the citizens are busily preparing for the grand celebration of Septembtr 16. Lodges which have been invited to join in have accepted and this fact with others leads to the belief that the parade in the morning will be one to remember.

All committees having the thing in charge are busily preparing for the great crowd confidently expected to come down. Every man is quietly pursu'ng his business in peace and with success, the old saying of "everything is lovely and the goose hangs high" being aptly illustrated. CELEBRATION AT WINKLEMAN. A grand celebration will be given at Wlnkleman on September 16, in honor of Miguel Hidalgo Castillo, the program fop the day being as follows: 10 a. music and singing and reading of the declaration of independence of Mexico; a grand parade; music by Lass Bros, of Redington.

Phoenix, says: "I was subject to kidney complaint for six or seven years. Every I contracted a cold It settled in my kidneys and the aching was much more pronounced. When the spells were at their worst I could neither sit. stand nor lie with any comfort. When standing all day at the desk the lame and aching back was very severe, and when suffering with rather an acute attack I noticed an advertisement about Doan's Kidney Pills and went to the Brlsley Drug store for a box.

I was promptly benefited and was soon cured." PIL1 N.Y., Proprietors A FINE WRITE-UP Some weeks ago S. A. Gibson, a newspaper writer on the staff of the Providence Journal, sent to The Republican for pictures and data concerning the Roosevelt reservoir project. They were furnished, and Mr. Gibson prepared for a recent issue of his paper a fine illustrated, write-up of the reservoir enterprise and this valley.

THE CAPITOL GROUNDS The grounds at the territorial capltol present a fine appearance these days, as there is a wealth of flowers after the scarcity that i always noticeable In midsummer. There are some flowers almost the year round, but they are not so plentiful in the very coldest or the very hottest weather.

The roses bloom in some four or five distinct seasons or crops during the twelvemonth. The fall flower season is unusually early this year, and the quantity could scarcely be more satisfactory. The quality Of the flowers, though, is a little deficient, but their fragrance is exceptional. At the present time there are dozens of varieties In bloom. Notable among them are the bright golden glow, the oleanders, many kinds of lantanas, petunias, a few plumbagoea and many verbenas.

In striking foliage plants are castor beans and amaranthas In maroon and green shades and brilliant hibiscus and a few closia. 1 COOPtR AND 1ENNY PLANNING CAMPAIGN Secretary MaoK Has Not Ttt Decided on Headquarters.

Joe Monihon says the practical jokers in this village have reached the limit with him, and simple justice would suggest that some other victim be selected for a time and give him a rest. It has been a common practice of his Phoenix friends to steal his horse and buggy nearly every time he comes to town and hide it out for a few hours.

which very often Interferes with his plan of action. Generally, though, he takes it with good nature, but a couple of days ago he became righteously In- dignant. I He came to town early and got a hundred pounds of Ice. which he placed i in the back end of the buggy; then i drove up in front of a business house and tied the horse while he went Inside on an errand, intending to start home at once, liut the few minutes he had his pack turned was long enough, and the Jokers stole the outfit. When he returned and missed tho bugf he was wild.

He got another rig and began a search for the missing outfit, but could not find it anywhere. He had crossed the trail of it a time or two. and some- i body had described the man driving the horse. Mr. Monihon concluded from the description that the man must be one of the drivers of the city sprinkling force, so along toward eve- ning he hiked to the city hall and read I the riot act to the administration.
