Snider’s store was bur gla.ized Saturday night for the third time in less than two years. The burglars crawled under the building and with an augtr bored holes in the floor until they were en abled to take out a plank and enter the building. The night was daik and stormy and they evidently had no fear of detec tion, as they blew open the safe with dynamite, broke open the cash drawer and- afterward ate a lunch of canned goods and crackers before leaving with their ill-gotten gain. The safe contained over $25 in bills wrapped up iu paper, which the bur glars carelessly overlooked, and all the money 'hoy secured was $4 90 which was in :ie Cash drawer/- They carried off several dollars worth of groceries, cigars and tobacco, leaving no clew upon which the offi cers can work Mr. Snider’s store is near bis resi dence in the southern suburbs of the city, and is without police protection, and for that reason the burglars were very lo’.d.

MAD LION AT LIBERTY i Great Excitement in the Central City Park at Macon • Col. Thomas G Powers, the animal I trainer, entered a cage cf six wild lions ■ at the winter quarters of the Nickel Plate Show in the animal buildiny at > Central City Park yesterday ni ’ruing. r With no weapon of defense save a 1 small iron rod which be carried in I.is • tie.nd, ihe intrepid trainer unbolt’d ’ the iron door of the ce.ge and jump d • wi bin. Al the lime of his entrance VVallick, the largest Afiican lion in ' captivity, sprang from bis cage, through the open door, and landed iu ‘ a crowd of invited Elks, who were in I attendance to witness the initiatory • performance of subjecting the wild beasts to the control of a human mas ter. They were there to decide which Elk tliould ride iu the cage with the i lions in parade for the E k’s circus April 1 Among the small audience weie Frank B. Turpin, Ju l Hill, John I Brj ne, Sam Dunlap, W. IL Harris, > proprietor of the show, and Mr. C. C. Wilson liis general agent. The doors of the winter quarters were barred securely eo as to prevent outsiders from straggling in and wit i nessing the anticipated performance. The wild beast cleared Mr. Turpin iu his jump for liberty and lauded Lis i forepaws on the lap of Mr. Jud Hill. The terrified spectators made a des perate attempt to escape from the building but found all avenues cut off, so the majority got on tup of (be win dow sills. Col Powers lemained cool and collected. He se z?d a heavy bar of iron that stood near by and whirled it through the air in the direction of the crouching beast. The missile missed its mark and crushed through the board partition The monster lion appeared to ig- ■ nore his human prey and passed by trainer and keeper without appearent notice A beautiful and valuable trick pony that had strayed into I apartments intended for the animals alone, attracted the lion’s attention, > and crawling toward the Shetland j pony without exciting the latter’s sus picion orcausing liis flight, the lion sp-ing upon his harmless and defense less victim. I A terrific roar was follow’d by the extended jaws of the monster cloasing on the throat of the equine prey. The heavy iron bar which Col. Powers I used to stun the lion crashed with mighty force on the shaggy bead, but it proved ineffectual, as far as loosen ! ing his iron grip upou the prey was concerned. He then grabbed a pitch fork and buried it deep in the mon , ster’s t-ide, but without the desired ef fect and every one got out, of the way as fast as possible, fearing he might turn upon them and rend them to ’ pieces. By this time the whole neighborhood surrounding the park was aroused, and an eager crowd surrounded the building. Several revolvers were ’ drawn, and Mr. Harris consented to shooting the lion and thus prevent him from breaking into the park and endangering human lives. “Chloroform him” interposed Mr. Turpin. “Shoot him’’ yelled the crowd. Mr. Turpin’s advice was taken. A hole was broken in the floor above the animals and two large sponges soaked with the quiescent drug were fastened to a pole and stuck under tbe nostrils J of the blood sucking brute The pony was now lying lifeless on the floor, the lion still gouging bis throat arid quaff ing the warm blood. In a few moments bis eyes began te e lose their fierce lustre, b.s gup relin quiebed and the muscles of his form - became less rigid. e Ropes with loops on the ends were I- lowered and fastened on the legs of tl e s semi-vanquished beast, and in five minutes he was securely b. und, placed : in the “shifting.box” and thence trans 8 ferred to l.is cage p > brav.- when i: w • I liut ite , f soon b came th r ngi d wi: li ?pf ct 11 era ,1 Tbe (ff cis ■ ! the <i. r .'< rm pa-.e.: ). offuiii’ ut .

The hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy circles under the eyes, the sallow, parsnip-colored complexion indicates it. A physician would ask if you had rheu matism, a dull pain or ache in the back or over the hips, stomach trouble, desire to urinate often, or a burning or scalding in passing it; it after passing there is an un satisfied feeling as if it must be at once re peated, or if the urine has a brick dust de posit or s'rong '•<’/ r When msymptoms are present, no time should be lost in removing the cause. Delay may lead to grave), catarrh of the bladder, inflammation, causing stoppage, and sometimes requiring the drawing of the urine with instruments, or may ru» into Bright's Disease, the most dangerous 1 stage of kidney trouble. 1 Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great discovery of the eminent kidney and blad der specialist, is a positive remedy for such diseases. Its reputation is world wide and it is so easy to get at any drug store that no one need suffer any length of time for want of it.
