Is parallel to the man who uses coffee
when in training.
The great trainers insist that their men
leave off coffee.
Why?
Experience teaches that the hearts
action is weakened by coffee, even when
taken in small doses, and shortneSs of
wind is due to failure of the heart to
furnish fresh blood to the lungs fast
enough.
Naturally the man who refuses to throw
off habits of this kind that cripple his
powers must stand aside for the nervy
ones who strip off the impediments and
train to win.
Why do trainers advise their men to
use Postum Cereal Food Coffee D.

Five Hundred Settlers
Inv oIved in a Suit
at Tacoma.
Northern Pacific Overlap Land
Case Again Up for a
Decision.
Should the Railway Win, the De-
PENDANTS Will Be Deprived of
Their Farms.

TACOMA, VASE. July 9.-The trial OF
the case of the Northern Pacific Rallwy
against some 500 settlers occupying land
on the Colum bia River. in the vicinity of
Vancouver, is occupying the United States
District Court A voluminous report filed
DIV the railroad company alleges that the
occupants are not entitled to the land,
which they they are cultivating and OF
which they have had possession for a
nun Der of years.
Between 1000 and 2o00 acres of the most
valuable fruit lands of the State, situated
in Clarke and adjoining counties, are in
volyed in this suit Clarke County raises
the finest prunes in the Northwest and
has many bearing orchards over twenty
wears old. 1t is the odd sections of this
beautiful and fertile region that the rail-
road lays claim to and portion OF which
is already in its possession.
Another part has been conveyed by the
railroad to purchasers. In fact, the rail
road was supposed TO own the land now
claimed until 1895, when decision by
Secretary Hoke Smith reversed all tormer
decisions and started chain OF complica-
tions which it will take years to straighten
out.
The railroad company claims the odd
sections under the land grant OF 1870, by
which it was given grant extending
forty miles on each side OF a railway to be
constructed from Portland to Puget
Sound. The line between the Columbia
River at Kalama and Tacoma was
finished in time to earn the grant between
those towns large amount of land
along the Columbia TO and beyond Van.
couver was accordingly patented TO the
railroad and resold by il to settlers.
Secretary Smiths decision brings in the
act OF 1864, by which the road would have
secured similar grant between Wallula
Junction and Portland, had line been
built over that route. 1t was not and the
grant was forfeited.
1t seems at this grant and the grant
of 1870 overlapped each other for an area
Of forty miles, coverin the lands now in
dispute. Secretary Smith held that the
second grant could not convey these
lands, as they had been previously
donated, though this donation was for
feited. Land Attorney Dudley, for the
railway, claims that these two grants were
continuous and that title passed by the
second grant.
The Smith decision created an immense
sensation, specially when it was followed
by an order to the Vancouver land office
to throw the disputed lands open for en-
try, and another for the railroad to recon-
vey to the Govern ment. The settlers pre-
pared for a grand rush to make entries,
but this was stopped by an injunction OBJ
tanned by the railroad, which has resulted
in leaving eii claims in statu quo pending
a final decision of the big suit. 1t is sure
to go 10 the Supreme Court OF the United
States.
Purchasers from the railroad are sup
posed TO have good titles, but large
numbe of settlers have located on the
unsold lands, and their title will be unde-
termined until final decision is given.

She has since been heard oi in New York,
she and male companion being arrested

After Mrs. Clem shire had departed

its enterprise in new direction, which is
expected to be profitable one, and the
experiment 10 be undertaken will be
watched with great deal of interest.
The plan of the company is to experiment
on large scale with the storage OF water
in the arid regions of Arizona, to corral
the moisture that falls in that region as
rain or from eloudburst
To-day General Manager Nevins said
that President Ripley has just let con-
tract for the construction of two big dams
of m asonry in the Arizona desert, to be at
the mouths of canyons or gorges twelve or
eighteen miles distant from the railroad.
James Dun. chief engineer OF the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, who
prepared the plans and under whose
supervision the dams will be constructed,
estim ates that each will hold so, 900, COG
gallons OF water-enough for the COM
pany's use along the Arizona division 70 r
eighteen months. The dams will be forty
feet high constructed of sandstone quar-
ried near by. The outer face of The
masonry will be in the form of the letter
s, thus conforming 10 the natural fall of
water from such a height and avoiding
the tear of sudden precipitation.
The stone reservoirs will cost about
$500, 900. The interest on that sum is about
33la per cent of the present cost of hauling
the wafer to the tanks, which they will
supply. The water will be piped from the
reservoirs 10 the tanks on the line of the
road and If there is sufficient quantity
it will be used also for irrigation.
