HER REFORMED DIET.

Mrs. Newlight Makes a Series of AstOund-
ing Discoveries.
ITS just awful how criminally ig-
norant I've been regarding our food,
said Mrs. Newlight to her husband the
other day, II can never be thankful
enough that I joined Professor Scarem's
class in domestic science. My! It's a
wonder we're not all dead, ignorant as
I've been. There's one thing sure,
George Newlight-there'll be no more
tomatoes on my table"
"Why?
because Professor Scarem explained
to us today how tomatoes cause a mark
ed arrest of vital activity in those who
eat them, and he proved that the acid
of tomatoes acts almost like poison on
the membrane of the stomach. Then
I'm done with any berries that have
seeds in on my table. "
"I'd like to know why?"
"You wouldn't ask if you'd heard the
professors talk on appendicitis and its
cause. A single dish of raspberries or
strawberries may bring on that awful
trouble. It's fearful to think of the risks
people will run just to crafty the palate.
And here we've always allowed our
children to have sugar and cream on
their oatmealr'
what of it,"
well, you'd say What of it?' if you
could hear the professor explain how the
combination of oatmeal and cream aud
sugar causes dreadful gases to arise in
the stomach and utterly retards diges-
ton. I've not the slightest doubt that
the awful spasm our little Mamie had
last year was due entirely to this cause.
Then there's bananas. Why, George
Newlight, they're simply rank poison
And you'll get no more white bread at
my table"
"Why not?"
Because there's no more nutrition in
it than there would be in bread made
out of pure starch. Every bit Of the nu-
tritive element has been refined out Of
it, Itmakes those who eat it thin blood.

''Do look thin blooded or as if
lacked nutrition?" asked Newlight, who
weighs 1919.
THAT doesn't signify. You DOM
know what day you'll begin to break
down under such bread Well have
nothing but graham or whole wheat
-four hereafter And I've done with
coffee too. If you could see and hear
Professor Scarem demonstrate just how
poisonous it is to the whole human sys
tenn you'd shun it as you shun opium
He says that cocoa shells is the only
real safe warm drink.
"I'd as soon drink dishwater," sale
Newlight.
You'd better drink dishwater thar
your poisonous coffee. If you'd only
take little time to study domestic sci
ence and look into this food business
little, it would be good thing for you

slowly disappearing, though he is get
ting fleshier every day. He needs a
change Of food. Probably he has been
eating buckwheat cakes and strip, white
bread and butter, sugar, fat meats, etc.
Give him lean meat and fish, cracked
wheat and potatoes, barley cakes, rye
bread or southern corn cakes. Try it,
and instead of moping and sitting round
the house all day you will find him run
ming around lively as a cricket.
Maybe, ON the contrary, he is growing
thin and pale. Then he needs buck
wheat and molasses, fat meats, mashed
potatoes in milk, northern corn, cracked
wheat and fish, oatmeal porridge and
fruits every morning.
All rules have their exceptions, and
the diet described for the mass may not
answer for exceptional cases, but the
following directions ere good for the
majority;
Milk is the simplest and most natural
food. If you cannot drink it, your stom-
ach is in diseased condition. Cheese is
good substitute, if mild, fresh and
made from pure milk and cream. Per-
sons who live mostly ON vegetables have
the best nerves and the best complex
ions. Red pepper is an excellent condi-
ment. Its effect upon the liver is re-
markable. Malaria, intermittent fever
or congestive chills cannot endure the
presence of red pepper Pure red pepper
known as cayenne) should be on every
table.
III health is caused largely by i'm
proper food or by food which is in bad
condition when it is eaten.

TERRIBLE SUFFERING.
Experience Of II Young America" M"
His sister.

New York, Sept. 29.-The Journal
and Advertiser says: Three years ago
Miss Elose Burnett was the belle OF
Cienfuegos, Cuba. She was rich.
Now she lies upon cot III lOXlo
room in small house on the outskirts
of Philadelphia, her body burning with
fever. her mind racked by terror OF the
Spaniards, her memory full OF the hor-
rors of an experience Astounding in star
walton, suffering and peril.
In similar condition, aggravated by
wounds, is DR.. Andre Burnett, who
served as a major in the Cuban army.
The father of these refugees was an
American, who owned large estate at
Cienfuegos. He died in 1898, and his
son, DR.. Burnett, went to Cuba to set
tie up the estate. The Spanish admin
istration of such affairs made this a
long and difficult task. In September,
1895, General Rcgo raised the Cuban
standard in the Cienfuegos district, and
the young Cuban American was one of
the first to join him.
1t was impossibI" for his sister to re-
main on the plantation, and she there
fore went into the Cuban service rs II
nurse. For 20 months she shared the
hardships of the patriots. She re-
NAMED bravely in the Cuban army,
caring for the sick and wounded, help
ing to cook the scant provisions and
proving herself heroine on many oc-
cssiOns.
After two months of this life they
both contracted malarial fever, and
were so i'll that they had to leave the
insurgent army and seek shelter, and
they found neither and We're compelled
to take refuge in cave, where they
lived for 23 weeks, having no food but
green pumpkins, sweet potatoes and
water from a stagnant pool. Both sui
fered terribly from fever, and were
often delirious. Finally the brother
managed to climb the hill and attract
the attention of II Spanish planter, who
took them to Sierra, whence they were
taken by boat to CienfuegOs.
When they landed at the wharf Miss
Burnett had no shoes, and her dress,
which she had worn for three months,
was in shreds. They were almost un-
able to walk, and We're dragged along
by the Spanish soldiers, who struck
and cursed them. The Spanish COM
mander examined them separately to
find excuse to put them to death, but
failing in that, he permitted them to
go to their sisters, who lived Il mile
away, on condition that they report in
person every three or four days. This,
in their condition, entailed the most in
tense suetfring, but the order was pitt
lessly enforced.
DR.. Burnett appealed to the Ameri-
can consul, Owen McGarr, for aid but
it was refused. Then followed Il long
correspondence with the state depart
ment at Washington, and in the end the
consul was ordered to help them. They
received passports on August ID, and
sailed September !. Their passage
was paid all the way to New York in
stead OF Florida.
DR.. Burnett and his sister have filed
claim at Washington against the
Spanish government for destruction OF
their property.

DECISION By M'KINLEY
Mortgage on the Union Pacific
to Be Foreclosed.
THE COMPANY WILL REORGANlZE
The Government Will Lose Something
Like Twenty Five Million In
the Transaction.

Chicago, Sept. 81 A special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
The Union Pacific reorganization
committee proposition for the settle
ment of the company's debt to the
UNITED States will be accepted, the
government mortgage will he fore
closed, the road sold and the company
reorganized. This statement is made
on the highest authority.
For several days past the president
has had conferences with the represen-
tatives of the company and with the
attorney & neral, and before he left
Washington he agreed to the sale of the
road and its reorganization upon the
basis which the reorganization commit
tee suggested The announcement of
the decision may be looked for at an
early date. 1t will come in an order
for foreclosure issued by the president
to the secretary of the treasury.
The agreement to which President
Mckinley has agreed to give his sane
ton is the same which was submitted
to congress by President Cleveland
last January. Under this agreement
the reorganization committee will bid
for the road under a foreclosure sale,
the sum of $45, 600, 000
In order to give an Ineligible state
ment of what this bid will mean to the
United States, it is necessary to enter
briefly into the history of the Union
Pacific obligation to the government.
The principal debt of the Union
Pacific to the United States was $780,
500, 5l2. A portion of this has not yet
been advanced by the United States.
The interest paid by the government
amounts to $50, 954, 1913. The whole
Indebtedness on the LIST day Of July,
1897, was $40, 494, 405. The sinking
fund of the Union Pacific in the hands
of the treasurer of the United States on
the same day was SIT, 1913, 2O9. After
deducting the sinking fund, which is
an asset of the company in the hands of
the United States for the purpose of
paying the debt of the Union Pacific
Company to the government, the sum
of $2S, $50 remains to he paid.
That is the only sum which the Fitz-
StTdlu dS ~
is known, will be required to pay the
government
The loss to the government is the diff
erence between $53, 900, O00 which is
the net amount due the government in
round numbers, and the 1928, 0O0. 900,
making a loss of nearly $25, 900, 900 in
round numbers, according to the fgur-
ing of the opponents of the agreement.
The agreement for the foreclosure
sale also contains a provision for the
reorganization of the Union Pacific
Railroad Company and its Kansas Pa
citic branch. The reorganization COM
mittee consists of Louis Fitzgerald,
Jacob Ii. Schieff, 7. jefferson Coo

TWO FACTIONS FIGHT.
Bloody Battle Between Polish Miners
at Girardsvi1le.

Girardville, Pa, Sept. 29.-At least
nine men received fatal injuries and
possibly two score others were more or
less seriously wounded in the bloody
riot here late last night and early this
morning. The battle was the outcome
of a quarrel over the Hazeton troubles.
Thirtysix men are known to have been
secreted by their friends, who fear that
they will be sent to Jail.
Twelve of the ringleaders were
brought before Justice Elias Kissinger
and 10 before Justice H. b. johnson.
All were charged with assault with in
tent to kill, HOUSEKEEPING and rioting,
and were held in heavy bail for court.
Many warrants have been issued, but
have not been served as yet.
DR.. Charles Statesman attended the
20 wounded, nine of whom he says will
die. Drs. William Monaghan and
James Donohue attended IA others, and
how many the other physicians cared
for is not known. Three others have
been reported dead, but this cannot be
verified.
Several hundred Polanders board at
William Cullacabbage's hotel, on Sec
ond street. Joseph Cavendish is pro-
prietor of the hotel at the east end of
town, where several hundred more
POlanders make their headquarters.
Bad blood has existed between them
for long time, and the recent strike
troubles at Hazleton embittered them
still more. Last night matters came to
crisis. Cullacabbage, it is charged,
and his followers, to the number OF
several hundred, armed with guns, rev.
divers, knives, axes and clubs, marched
to Cavendish's hotel, where several
hundred of their enemies were cele-
brating payday. The Cavendsh men
ascertained that their foes We're march
ing upon them, and, arming themselves
hurriedly, awaited their arrival. After
demonstrative march. the Cullacat.
bage contingent arrived, and immed-
ately stormed the saloon.
Then a bloody battle ensued. The
men fought like demons, the shooting
was fast and furious; axes. knives,
clubs and other weapons were used with
deadly effect. The battle lasted almost
an hour, when the Cullacabbage men
were routed, leaving their wounded men
behind. Everything in the house was
smashed and the floors strewn with
wounded men. The walls were bespat-
tered with blood and dhreds of human
flesh.
After the rioters had returned to their
headquarters, the Cavendish gang armed
themselves to the teeth, and marched
to their enemies rendezvous, where IL
battle, still blooder than the first, re-
suited. The police force and the con-
stables Of the surrounding region were
called to the scene, but were unable to
cope with the rioting horde, who con-
tinued hostilities until morning.
