Mr.. saunders Not scrambling.

To the Editor of The Times:
As an old citizen, ami a longtime ac-
qualntance of Mr. l.. b. Saunders, | feel
free to say that while his friends would
be glad to see his fine Republican record
rewarded, he has authorized as yet no
use OF his name in connection with the
Commissunersbip, as published in TINS
mornings Times. 1t is matter upon
which he has not expressed an opinion;
therefore, the announcement OF his candi-
dacy is premature. as unconsidered by
hinr His action may be decided by the
course of events, and should he conclude
TO enter the race, it viii be openly an-
nounced, and fairly competed for.

"THE CHERRY PICKERS.
a Strong First Performance at the
Columbia Theater.

a Strong First Performance at the
Columbia Theater.
The much heralded and much praised
melodrama, The Cherry Pickers," had
its first performance at the Columbia The
ater last night by August Pitou's COM
pany, direct from New York 1t is a most
absorbing play, we'll written and strong in
all its lines; and moreover, it deals with a
subject that is entirely unfamiliar on the
stage, though Kipling has made India as
well known to us as any man could do with
mere words for material. The climax in
the last act in which the hero, John
Nazare, q half-caste native officer in the
Indian army, is i'll the power of his rival
and senior officer, and is finally foiled
by Nourmalee, the beautiful half caste girl
whom they both love, is one of the most
thrilling scenes that any of the new melo-
dramas have given US for long time
The company is a strong one, fully up
to the play. The man who made the best
impression was Mr. Ralph Delmorc, who
took the part of Col. Brough, the villain.
His picture was thoroughly consistent and
thoroughly despicable. He is one of the
best villains we have had the pleasure of
seeing this season. Miss Roselle Knott is
Nourmalee, the heroine. She is a beauti-
full woman, and her beauty is fun of char
acter, too.
There are two Washington people in the
cast Geoffrey Stein does well the part
of the Afghan spy who makes aringing re-
cital of the wrongs that he has suffered
at the hands of the English. Mr.. r. v
Ferguson, an old-time newspaper man, has
the part of the private soldier, secretary
and valet to Col Brough, quite an impor-
tant one jim the play. He takes it accepta-
bly,. The scenery is handsome and its sub
jects fresh.

THE NEW WAVE.
Physical Culture, Pure Food and
Drink Marks a New Era.


A great popular pure drink and pure
food wave is just now passing over the
country, and seems to have come to stay.
More attention is being given to articles
of food and drink than heretofore, and peo-
ple are slowly learning that good health
cannot be preserved under tie present
civilization unless the habits are of a more
natural character. The apparently harm
less coffee habit now numbers its victims by
the thousands, producing obstinate Stom-
ach and bowel troubles that will not
ahate except by leaving off the habit.
1t is not always an easy task to drop a
lifetime habit.
One of the late discoveries is n pure food
coffee, made entirely of grains and pos
sesslng great fattening and nourishing
properties, while it breTs the exact deep
seal brown color OF Mocha, and when cream
is added it takes the rich golden brown of
old Java. The taste is pungent and piquant,
quite similar to coffee; III fact, so close
to il in aroma and flavor that the coffee
drinker, who has had trouble with coffee,
will freely take on the new grain drink
when he discovers that it agrees with him
perfectly, and its healthful properties
quickly dismiss his former ails.
The great feature of this new and ra-
t.onal method of dsmissng sickness, is to
avoid drugging oneself and quit hurtful
habits, taking in only what is known to
he pure ma tural FOOD such as the Creator
intended for mans subsistence.
Dr. Wesley a Dunn, editor of Medical
Current Marshall Field Bldg, Chicago,
says: Il am highly pleased with it,
Nothing is more to the Point than this
new food-drink Ina ade from grains. 1t bears
the name of Postum Cereal. - and is made
by the ostum Cereal Co., lim., Battle Greek,
Mich
1t claims to be "a direct and quick pro-
ducer ofnew blood corpuscles by the natural
method of good nourishing fcod taken in a
liquid form. 1t is quite bit less ex-
pensive than coffee ard altogether its use
appeals to ones common sense.
Beware of the fraudulent limitations of
the original Postum Cereal Grain coffee.
Insist on Postum. -

COAL AND IRON.
The Important Relationship of These Two
Valuable Minerals.

The Important Relationship of These Two
Valuable Minerals.
Statistics show that, whereas Great
Britain in 1910 produced rs per cent of
the worlds supply Of coal, at the pres
emit time it produces only 81 per cent.
Atlantic liners no longer carry coal
from Great Britain for the return jour-
hey. They now take in American coal,
and no less than 1900, 900 tons of
American coal were thus consumed in
1895. The condition of the iron manu-
featuring industries has always exer-
cised most important influence on the
production of coal, SO that large de-
mand for iron draws with it large de-
mand for mineral fuel. During the last
20 years the worlds production of pig
iron has increased from 10000, 900 to
rs, 600, 600 tons, but the share taken by
Great Britain has fallen from 48. s per
cent to 30 per cent, while that of the
United States has increased from IA. /
per cent to 26.9 per cent, that of Ger
many from TIA per cent to 21.4 per
cent, and that of Russia from per cent
to At per cent Indeed, iron is now be-
ing imported from the United States
into this country, and, incredible as it
may seem, the railway station at Mid
dlesbrough. the center of the iron trade,
is built Of iron brought from Belgium.
Surely, then, the author of "Our Coal
Resources at the -Clese Of the Nine:
teenth Century" is hardly right in
thinking that British coal and iron still
hold their own. He argues that other
countries of Europe are exhausting their
coal supplies just as Great Britain is,
yet the figures he gives show that Ger
many has in reserve, within depth of
5000 feet, 100, 900, 900, 900 tons of coal
as compared with our (England's)
1888, 900, 900 tons within a depth of
1000 feet. And this estimate does not
include brown COAL of which Germany
raises 25, 900, 900 tons annually.-Na-

CHEMICAL FIRE ENGINES.
They Have Done Much to Reduce the Loss
From Water at Fires.

They Have Done Much to Reduce the Loss
From Water at Fires.
Mr.. Charles T. Hill writes of "The
Fire Patrol" in st. Nicholas, the final
paper in his series on the New York fire
department.. Mr.. Hill says:
The chemical engine" used consid-
erably in the fire departments of several
cities, has aided materially in lowering
the loss by water at small fires. The
preparation carried in the tanks of these
engines has double acknowledgement
only does it extinguish large body of
fire with the use of small amount of
water, but the liquid itself evaporates
quickly, leaving very little "drip" in
the apartments or floors underneath the
fire.
The tanks of these engines are charg-
ed with a solution of bicarbonate of So
da (baking soda) and water, with o
small cylinder of sulphuric acid sus-
pended at the top. When the tank is in
verified, this acid is emptied into the
soda and water, and the mixture at
once generates carbonic acid gas at
6AS0V PACoobAO. Ouu1 S1uS Gu0
with this gas gives it the necessary pres
sure todrive it considerable distance.
The hose is coiled around reel on top
of the engine, and always connected
with the tanks, SO when the firemen ar
rive at a fire all they have to do is to
run off as much hose as they need, dash
up stairs with the line, give the order
to dump" one Of the tanks (there are
two, carrying go gallons each), and they
are all ready to go to work. The chem
ical engine has extinguished more than
20 fires Of considerable size since it has
been in service in the New York depart
ment, little over year. 1t is station
ed on the upper west side of the city,
where there are a great number Of
dwellings and fats, and it has aided
materially in keeping down the fire
losses in that part of N York.
