There Is a class of People

Who are injured by the use of coffee.
Recently there has been placed in all
the grocery stores a new preparation
called Grain-O, made of pure grains,
that takes the place Of coffee. The
most delicate stomach receives it with
out distress, and but few can tell it
from coffee. 1t does not cost over one
fourth as much. Children may drink
it with great benefit. 10 cents and %
cents per package. Try it. Ask for
Grain-O. wifi

The children may drink it without
injury as well as the adult All who
try it, like it. Grain-O has that rich
seal brown of Mocha or Java, but it is
made from pure grains, and the most
delicate stomach receives it without
distress. One-fourth the price OF
coffee. 15c and 25 cts. per package.

TO LOOK INTO THE CHARTER
city Attorney Bohmrich will Investigate
the M, r. K. Road.

The charter Of the Milwaukee, Ra-
cine & Kenosha Electric Street Rail-
way company will be thoroughly look
ed into before any franchise will be
granted by the common council of Ke-
nosha to it. There is a meeting called
for tomorrow evening for the purpose
of taking up for discussion the fran
chse ordinance asked for, but between
now and then City Attorney Bohmrlch
proposes to find out what kind of a
road it is which is knocking at the
city's doors for admission. There
is feeling, perhaps wrongly founded,
that the legislature in granting a
charter to the company gave it the
privilege of carrying freight. If it did,
the road is not a street railway within
the meaning of the law, but is regu
lar railroad. No provision which can
be made in an ordinance, re-
specting the carrying of freight, will
have the least force and effect,
after theroad has secured right of
way, against. the carving Of such
freight as it may deem proper and
right or that it can get into its cars.
A right of way once given and the
charter allowing freight to be carried
the road could go through here with as
big freight trains as it pleases; and
just as often as it pleases, and all the
provisions in an ordinance prohibiting
the carrying Of freight would be SIM
ply a small tinkling cymbol and sound
ing brass. The charter OF the COM
pany would stand as higher law than
the ordinance.
Mr. Bohmrich has been asked for an
opinion on the ordinance in question.
He proposes to base his opinion largely
on the constitution of the charter. If
he finds that the road can carry freight
and that therefore it is regular rail
road, he will recommend that the road
pay for it's right of way the same as
any other railroad would have to do.
The charter had not arrived today,
though a certified copy of it has been
telegraphed for to Madison. Many of
the legal points involved and to be
passed upon will be largely determined
by what may be revealed in that all
important charter.
The entire question of the admit
lance of the road seems not to be so
generally discussed as it was at the
former attempts made to come through.
The citizens seem 10 have tired Of its
discussion and will let the matter go
with very little discussion, in all prob
ability. There are a few places about
the city where regular councils are
held on the affair, but there is no gen
eral, all permeating and pervading talk
that there used to be. The aldermen
will probably have the discussions
more to themselves than they had be-
fore. Tt seems entirely probable that
they will ask and demand the same
things they did before when the com
pany requested a franchise.

Before trying to dispose of the farm,
pick up things a little and put the farm
in it's best dress. A slack, run down
place is a poor seller. A lot of thrifty
young fruit trees will help secure your
price. A few dollars in paint, white
wash, lumber and nails will prove a
good investment.

Leopard Cub Catches a Rat.

The leopard cub in the Central Park
Zoo, which was born about eight months
ago, and now has got old enough to have
an apartment by himself became conspic-
uous for while recently by catching a
large rat that had ventured into his cage
How the rat got in is mystery. 1t
must have found some bits of food in the
drain trough hat runs along the front OF
the cages and decided to make further
Investigation. 1t hadn't got far in when
the young leopard spied it. The cub
crouchcd, watched and waited until
the rat was within range, and then
sprane at it,
He hadn't had much practice at this
sort of thing, but he got the rat alright.
Then he played with it for upward Of an
hour AM half, while the thin crowd OF
rainy-dav visitors watched him. Three
or four times the rat thought that it was
going to get away through the opening
along the lower edge OF the cage. 1t was
only few inches away from it, but the
leopard had been doing some very clever
calculating, while to all appearances
asleep in another corner of the cage.
He got tired OF the play when the rat
finally g,t 81 argued that he wouldn't
try to escape at all and gave the rat d
pat with his paw that settled it. Hedis
dained to eat his prey and let the keeper
! remove it.
