Prince H., a Messenger and Cleveland

The poormaster's report shows that
the city is feeding the same ninety odd
people right along, and giving most of
them house rent, fuel, etc. This seems
almost too many, especially as num-
Der of them are able bodied men. and
women, and there are so many farmers
in Kenosha county who can not get
help, either male or female. There is
something wrong somewhere.

IT may have been accidental that the
specifications in the call for bids for
furnishing 100000 worth Of clothing
for the Indians were so drawn that
only one firm could bid, but Indian
Commissioner Jones exercised his
privilege and rejected that bid, and
will advertise for new bids, with speci-
fications which will give everybody a
chance to bid. Meanwhile he will en-
deavor to locate the responsibility for
those peculiar specifications. They
were prepared under the Cleveland
administration.

THE MAKER
Of Deviled Crabs Asks Question

The following correspondence be-
tween Mr. McMenamin, the we'll known
producer of Theoretically sealed sea
food, of Hampton, Va, and the Postum
Cereal Co., may interest some, as it
touches point upon which there have
been some queries
HAMPTON, Va.-Postum Cereal
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.-Gentlemen:
Replying to your letter, l beg to say
that your health food coffee has fla
vor, so far as can remember, of the
best coffee, and this coffee flavor was so
pronounced that suspected that coffee
was mixed with the other grains. [
served it to some Of my guests without
telling them what it was, and they pro-
nounced it very excellent coffee. One
of them was a coffee drinker who had
to have it three times a day. | would
like to know if there is any coffee in it.
Very truly yours, James McMenamin. "
/" BATTLE CREEK, Mich.-Mr. James
McMenamin, Hampton, Va.-Dear Sir
We have your esteemed favor of the
28th, and in reply to your inquiry as to
the ingredients, will say that we are
willing to stake every penny we can get
together that Postum not only does not
contain coffee, but that it is composed
strictly and entirely of pure cereals of
the field, the greater portion being the
various parts of wheat. 1t took us
nearly a year of experimenting to pro-
duce Postum, the health coffee. 1t is
an easy matter to make weak sort of
drink from Drowned rye, wheat or malt,
but to produce liquid from the cereals
that has the color, taste and nourishing
properties of our present product,
taxed our best energies and that of one
of the most expert analytical chemists
in America.
" We felt a desire to demonstrate the
principle that mans drink at meals
should be made from grains, without
any sort of adulteration or chemical
preparation, aside from simple cooking.
It may be further explained, that in
order to produce Postum, the cereals
are cooked in different ways, and the
final mixing of the proper proportions
is what gives us the desired result.
There is no possible argument that
can be brought forward that will raise
the question for moment regarding
The fixed fact of the healthful, nourish-
ing and fattening properties of the
cereals furnished by the all-wise Creator
for mans natural use. We thank you
for your kind letter. Yours respect
fully, Postum Cereal Co., Linn"

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty -four
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it il positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fire.
quent desire to urinate or pain in the
back, is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed, that DR.. Kilmers
Swamp Root, the great kidney rem
edY, fulflls every wish in relieving
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bad
der and every part of the urinary pas
sages. 1t corrects inability to hold
urine and scalding pain in passing it,,
or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that un-
pleasant necessity of being compelled
to get up many times during the night
to urinate. The mild and the extraor-
binary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distressing
cases. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. Sold by drug
gists, price fifty cents and one dollar.
You may have a sample bottle and
pamphlet both sent free by mail. Mem

this paper guarantees the genuineness

SELDOM has stronger lesson on
self control been given to the citizens
of Kenosha than is found now in the
confession of Mrs. Marie Pleva of the
murder of her husband in a fit of pas
sion. 1t is not pertinent now to en-
quire who provoked the quarrel which
brought the awful result, nor does it
make very much difference what occa-
sion there may have been for the re-
proof Mr.. Pleva administered to his
wife. He was undoubtedly at fault in
going as far as he did in his accusa-
tions without having sufficiently inves-
tigated the facts of the case. Having
proven to his own mind the facts his
course should have been different. But
that is neither here nor there. If what
Mrs. Pleva now says is true, he made
use of an unbelievable epithet to her
and she allowed her passions to so get
control of her that she resolved to be
4AO VI uAul3 " 1OAOEOA ctOR LIS GOuS UO'
The crime was undoubtedly one COM
mitted in the heat of passion and re-
sentiment, which resentment may have
been fed for weeks upon a course of
similar accusations. There is never an
excuse for murder. Mrs. Pleva should
have removed herself from the cause of
her i'll feeling. There was ample rem
edy in the courts for all i'll treatment,
though she may have been the cause of
it all. There seems to be little doubt
but that she was not living up TO her
marriage vows, and this fact may be
said to be the real cause for her final
deed. But whether that or the treat
ment of her husband be the cause.
neither is paliation. It is an awful
lesson, which may well be learned by
all of US.

THE Wisconsin Central road was re-
luctant to give in to the demands OF
other roads that bicycles be not car
ried free over its lines. 1t made a kick,

will carry them anyway, under certain
restrictions. The restrictions are such,
however, as to work no hardship to
those who actually want themselves

JUDGE BURNELL should look after
the officer of his court who is allowing
Banker Shove, convicted of illegal
banking, the freedom of the streets of
Oshkosh, the best rooms in the sheriffs
house and the freedom of the sherifs
table. 1t is such action as this indulg-
ing Of culprit which makes our popu-
lists so numerous. The effect of the
action is the enforcement of the idea
which is now altogether too prevalent
that bankers are made of some finer
clay than the rest of the human family
and are therefore entitled to greater
consideration. t. C. Shove committed
a crime; he was convicted of it, and
though given a very light sentence
considering his ofense, he is entitled to
no better treatment than that accorded
John B. Koetting, the Milwaukee
banker, who, in the eyes of the law,
committed crime Of the same degree
and is now serving a five years term in
Waupun state prison. Judge Burnell
owes a duty to the state in seeing that
Shove is made to feel the force of the
law just as any tramp who had trans
crossed the law would be.

IN view of the ofttimes unseemly
condition of some of our streets why
would it not be wise for the city fathers
to get street sprinklers like that used
at Modesto, Cal. That town has a
street sprinkler with eight-inch wheels
so built that the wheels do not track.
Thus at each trip thirty-inches of the
street get packing as if from a heavy
roller
