SAN FRANCISCO. May 2s.-The event Of
to-day at Camp Richmond was the arrival
from New Orleans Of the Eighth and
Twenty-third regiments, regular United
States infantry. The men are nearly all
seasoned veterans who have seen hard
service, and are ready to bear the brunt
of more battles. They landed from the
foot Of Market street this morning and,
though in heavy marching order, stepped
with the spring and vigor Of unincumbered
troops on parade. With unbroken lines they
marched out Market street and over the
hills to the city Of tents. where they will
remain until ordered to board transports
for Manila.
Much is expected Of these two regiments.
For several years they guarded the border
line Of Texas and they are used to the
hardships of frontier life. Soon after the
declaration Of war they were ordered to
New Orleans to be held in readiness for
the invasion Of Cuba Recently, however,
it was determined to send them Ito the
Philippines, and on the 18th of this month
they broke camp at New Orleans and to-
night their tents are pitched in San Fran.

THEY HAVE GIVEN HER UP.

The friends of Mrs Mary A. Beals of
Brunswick have given her up. 1t has now
been many weeks since she mystsriously
disappeared in Boston, and her husband
has found no trace of her. No rumor, not
a wisp of intelligence has come to make
him believe that she is in the land of the
living, and he has concluded that she met
her fate on the boat between Boston and
Bath before she registered. Possibly she
fell overheard when no one was looking
her way, and was lost. Mr. Beals is
manning to 90 to Auburn to live.

WHAT THEY ARE.
Composition of the Famous New
Food.
Found at Grocer

Composition of the Famous New
Food.
A wide spread interest has been created
among good liyers. as to the composition
of Grape Nuts, the new food that has
come into popular use Of late. 1t has long
been known to physicians chemists and
food experts, that the starchy portion OF
entire wheat -four and barley is trans
formed into a true and very choice sugar,
by the act of intestinal digestion in the
human body. This sugar is identical
with, and is known as grape sugar, and
it is IN condition for immediate trans
formation into blood and the necessary
structure from which the delicate nerve
centers are built up.
A food expert of the Postum Cereal
Co., Linn, Battle Creek, Mich, followed
q line of experiments until he produced
the food called Grape Nuts of which
grape.sugar forms the principal part, and
it is produced by following out Natures
processes, in a mechanical way.
The new food has q charming flavor and
can be served instantly either cold with
cream, or, by pouring hot milk or cream
oyer it, one has hot mushrat once.

ERsE DELIVERY EXTENSION.
what Postmaster SWEET Says ON the
Subject.

Postmaster George l.. SWEET has for
warded to the Hon. Perry S. Heath, hrst
assistant postmaster general at Washing
ton two petitions for the extension OF the
free delivery system at the Portland post
office. One of them is from the residents
of Deering. In submitting this petition
Postmaster Swett reviews the annexation
question and sends maps ETC., explaining
fully to the department. the distances.
The signers of the other pstitions are an
residents of Portland, but outside tho Iree
delivery limit as last established, willcn
includes part of Deering, known as
Oakdale, but excludes these petltioners
who are in the Immediate vicinity. In
fact, some of them are only across the
street in many cases and within Guy
limits of Portland.
Mr.. SWEET calls atten ton to the ad-
visibility of consolidation In the ue-
livery service There are within radius
of three miles fifteen postoffioes. SIX each
in Deering and South Portland, and three
on the islands in the bay and within tne
city limits, two of the last being summer
resort offices.
One of the Deering Offices (Woodfords)
is u third class office and the center OF
quite dense population, all the resi-, be-
ing fourth class and small, with the ex-
ception of South Portland, which handles
quite large amount of mail matter.
If the consolidated delivery plan should
meet the approval of the departments, Mr..
SWEET thinks about two additional
carriers for South Portland and three for
Deering would be needed. This matter
would, in all probability, not be con-
sidered until July, when the new appro-
priations for extended post offices service
are allotted.
The business of the Portland post office
certainly needs an extended carrier service
and Postmaster Swett is doing all in his
power to obtain the same.

MUSIC AND DRAMA
THE JEFFERSON.

There was fun galore last evening at
the Jefferson, it was fast and furious and
the spacious auditorium fairly echoedl
the plaudits which came from very
large snG highlytenthusiastic audience.
Following the matinee performance of
"Lady Audley's Secret, 2 in which Ella
Cameron surely added another to her
well-earned laurels as an accomplished
actress, came that rollicking, 1nirth-
provoking farce comedy entitled : Your
Uncle Dudley"
In the role of Dudley Fullalove, J.
p, George W. Wilson scored one of his
most signa15 successes. He got right in
side of the skin of the typical old-fash-
ioned uncle and his facial expressions
of themselves. were quite enough to
drive away the worst case of indigestion
by the merriment which they caused,
and when these were supplemented by
an inimitable makeup and quaint action,
the portrayal became irresistjbly funny.
Perhaps the most ludicrous scene was
where he himself was brought under the
spell of that hypnotic influence which
was lnl6U0ou w Cul6 b4lO pLCllACpUAoAl VI
his nephew for nocturnal rambles, and
the climax was reached when under the
same influence he makes love to the bal
let girl ana lands heavily on the veritable
John Sullivan of the cast.
The play was full Of side-splitting sit
uations and everyone went away satis-
fed that they had seen more fun within
the compass of few hours than YER be
fore in their play-going experience. At
least this is a fair inference from the
genuine laughter in the biggest kind of
Jumps which, the entire production in
duced.
Not alone the play, but the specialties
received the widest kind of applause, de-
servedly so, land at one time it looked as if
the "Herald Square Quartette" would
get no rest for thesnight.

at today's matinee, and this evening
