by the East Side Park Land company.
This condition was attached to the of
fer that tin amount should be spent by

ited the land und irave a favor
able leport. The city solicitor re
ported that there wa no leual objection
to accepting the offer. About $r.00
would be the yearly expenditure. Hut
as there was some opposition by mem
bers of the councils to taking' It under
the conditions, and as no decision was
mude, Messrs. Walker and Stocker,
who represent the company, have for
mally notified the city otllclals that the
offer Is withdrawn.
It Is. said that the offer will not be
again made, but the land will be di
vided Into lots for building purposes.

In January, 189G, he was promoted un
der the same company to the position

1S94 he was chosen and elected by the
voters of the Third ward as councilman

HOW T0FIND OUT.
Pill a bottle or common glass with
urlno and let It stand twenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling Indicates
a diseased condition of the kidneys.
When urine' stains linen It Is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fre
quent desire to urinate or pain In the
back, is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO !(.
There Is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great klaney remedy
fulfills every wish In relieving pain
In the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passages.
It corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effect following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to uri
nate. Tho mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest for Its wonder
ful cures of the most distressing cases.
