Among the particular projects which received attention as presented by dele gations of cltlsens interested, intro duced by members of congress, were the Coosa and Flint river enterprises; deep water harbor on the "northwest coast of Florida either at Appalachl- cola. Carrabelle or 8t Andrews bay; a fresh" survey ef the Wabash river up to Terre Haute: the adoption of proj ects relative . to the San Joaquin and ftacramento rivers; deeper water In Nor folk . harbor; . larger appropriations for locks and dams on the Ohio and to the end that this great artery of commerce may be completed within 13 years. . Columbia, Beoelves Attention. - Other projects to which attention was directed were those looking to mor ex haustive surveys with special refer ence to the holding of water in check at L - 1 11 L- oertaln seasons of . the year.

Lathrop' . ? . Washington, Jan.. 13. Representative Olllepsle of Texas, one of the moot ac tive members of the house committee on banking and currency, declares that the advocates of .the central bank for the United States are not correctly rep resenting the operations of the centra banks of leading countries of Europe and are trying to saddle on this country a 'central banking Institution purport ing to be modeled after those of other countries, but In reality entirely dif ferent from them, , "Senator Aldrlch proposes to establlsn central bank for the United States which shall be a hank for banks," skid Representative Gillespie. "He does not propose a bank which shall be one with which the people, of the country cau transact business. It will be solely a" bank of issue. It will not receive de posits or make Joans. In a time of crisis, the banks which had .loaded themselves up with securities would be helped out by an Issue of notes. ' They Are Vot Beakers' Banks. It Is generally represented that the Idea ef -the proposed central bank In this country Is to be taken from such Institutions as the Bank of Kngland, the Bank of France and the 'Bank of Germany. Now, as a matter of fact, the Bank of England is not a bankers' bank. It does a general banking busi ness. The same Is true of the Bank of France. Those banks stsnd betwen the other banks and the people. When Senator Aldrlch was in England he was told by the chief of the leading banks of Eng land that thler principal competitor was tre Bank of England Itself. "In France, Senator Aldrlch was toll that the Bank of France was not a bank of banks, but that It did a large share of Us business directly with the people of France. When efforts were mad,) to get the president of the Bank of Frunze' to say that the Bank of France was a bankers' bank, and that the banks' were Its principal customers, he refused to admit anything of the kind. He said that while the banks did the larger sh&ie of the business with the Bank of France, yet a highly Important part of its business was transacted directly with the people themselves. Aldrlch Suppresses raets. "As a matter of fact, where some time ago the Bank of France was doing about 70 per cent of Its buslnoes with banks. It Is now doing only about 60 per cent with the banks and .the rest directly with the people. .."These ore facts which have not been set before the people of this country by the advocates of the central bank. Senator Aldrlch and those who are with htm in support of the central bank Idea, which he favors, are giving tho country to understand that they want this country to have a central bank pat- j terned In some measure after the big government banks of Europe. But they neglect to set fortb the extent which some of these government banks trans act business directly with the public, and thus occupy a position In which they afford protection to the public from any undue banking exactions." , Hopes Aldrlch Will See Zitfhfc. Mr. Gillespie la convinced the people of this country will never consent to see a central bank established, which Is a mere bank of banks In other words, a big central Institution as the capsheaf of the banking system, which will do no business with the public. . Moreover, he says that a single cen tral Institution in any event would not answer the purpose .for this-country. He deems it more feasible to divide the country Into aones -and let each sone have Its head bank, under rigid gov ernment control. Mr. Gillespie thinks It quite likely that Senator Aldrloh will become con vinced that his proposed central bank c.annoCt established and that he may in the end modify his plan for currency reform completely.

For Instance, in the whole United States consump tion has decreased 49 per cent sines 1880, but, offsetting this, kidney troubles have increased 181 per cent lot tile same period. Chicago's kidney troubles nave gone up to 17 per cent, and Chicago Is down for an Increase of 36 per cent of deaths from pneumonia. There are every day 3.500,000 persons 111 In the United States.

At the last meeting of t the -city, council the water commission submitted Its annual re port, showing the business of the past year. and the present status of the water system: Tho statement shows for the year just ended the receipts were $20; 762.60, and the total disbursements $1 6, J1T.4.

Have You Any Symptom of Kidney Disease? Tou know what these symptoms are If not, we will tell youi That weak, lame snd aching back those sharp, stabbing, shooting fialns and twltohlngs in groin and imbs1 that Inflammation, sorenees and tenderness of the muscles ' those scalding, burning sensations; inability to retain the urine; sedi ment and deposits from the urine; inflamed bladder and passages, etc., that "all-gone," "played-out," drag ging weariness and despondency the dullness, lack of ability for concen tration, reatlessness, sleeplessness, unnatural nervousness and Irritabil ity, irregularity of the heart action, etc. v All These Mean Kidney .

There can hardly be any mistake about that. The great mistake will be If you wilfully neg lect such symptoms. For uric acid poisoning of the sys tem invariably means diseased kid neys and bladder then chronic In flammation of the kidneys, bladder and passages, inflammatory rheu matism, gravel and gall-stones, chronlo nervous disorders, dropsy, diabetes, Brlght's disease, etc. As suredly, these are matters serious enough to merit the Instant attention of any man or woman. And whenever there Is the slight est indication of orvfi's kidneys and bladder having "gone wrong' com mon sense should at once suggest the selection of a rood, honest, reliable remedy for this class of nervous de rangements.
