tai faculties is attributed to the weight
of years, combined with the effects OF
two strokes of apoplexy, which he has
suffered within the past few months
The petition to have his daughter APP
pointed his guardian was made by Col
Little. manager of the Sutro properties
after the members of the family and
their attorneys had decided that such a
step was necessary.
The effect that the withdrawal of Mr.
Sutro from business may have upon the
various enterprises with which he was
connected, is a matter to be determined
by the family and the lawyers. His in
terests are so vast and diversified that
the manner of their disposition is mat
ter of great interest. a large part of
his fortune is in real estate. In San
Francisco alone he owns over 1900 acres
of land-about one-eighth of the taxa
BILE area of the entire county. Among
other valuable holdings are the Sutro
Electric Railroad, the Sutro library and
stacks of gilt-edged bonds. In the pres
ent condition of the real estate market,
it is rather difficult to appraise the value
of his local realty, but a conservative es-

900. The Sutro baths alone cost nearly
81. 100000.
Mr.. Sutro is a native of Germany and
Isl years of age. His career up to the
time he inaugurated the scheme to tun-
mel from the Carson river valley was
comparatively humble and obscure. He
was a dealer in tobacco and pipes in this
city in the early days, and subsequently
removed to Nevada, where he engaged
in the tobdcconist's trade in several
mining camps, finally settling in Vir-
ginia City. In 1864 he secured from the
Nevada Legislature the right of way
for his famous tunnel, which was COM
menced on October 19, 1869 and con-
cluded July s, 1878. 1t cost 81, ,069, sol. In
addition to his mining ventures in Ne
vada he edited newspaper. He was
interested in politics and at various times
opposed William Sharon, John p. Jones
and William NJ. Stewart for the posi-
ton of United States Senator.
The Evening Post announced some
three weeks ago that Mayor Sutro was
incompetent, but his friends vigorously
denied the story at that time. stating
that he was merely indisposed and
would be able to resume attention to
business in few days.

CHILDREN'S FOOD
study Will Not Hurt Healthy Chill,

Study viii Not Hurt "a Healthy Child
"Many children at school," said a stu
dent of children. appear to be stupid
when they are only badly nourished. They
may have plenty to eat without a sufficient
amount of nourishment Study will not
hurt a healthy child. Good, hard thinking
helps the circulation of the blood"
1t might be stated that the lack of
nourishment is owing to ill-advised selec-
tion of food. Fruit. eggs, some meat and
good entire wheat bread with butter, all
furnish excellent food for children.
Never, under any circumstances, should
they be allowed to have coffee. All mar
cotics, like cigarettes or tobacco in any
form, coffee, opium products, or any of
that class of drugs, will most sadly scar
the whole life of a growing child. Those
who seek to assist the little ones to grow
up strong and healthy men and women
will look carefully after their food and
drink.
1t is unfortunately true that some par
ents are careless and ignorant on this sub
ject and the innocent children grow up
weak in body and brain, easily knocked
over by most any disease that comes along.
Children like a warm, nourishng drink
for breakfast, and almost universally like
Postum Food Coffee, upon which they fat
ten and flourish famously. Parents should
see that 1t be boiled full 10 minutes after
boiling commences. 1t is not sufficient
that II has stood on the stove 10 minutes
1t must boil that length of time.
Inc long boiling is necessary to bring
out the delicious flavor and the nutritious
food elements.

SESSION NOTES
Matters Which May or May Not Re
ceive Attention

WASHINGTON, Feb. There is no
present purpose in the house of repre-
sentativeS to consider the Hawaiian
question, and the house leaders say
there has been no change whatever in
the disposition 10 allow the senate to
act on the subject before making any
move in the house.
Senator Wilson of Washington was
at the war department today urging
that action be taken by the military arm
of the government to preserve order
at Dyea and Skaguay. and especially at
the latter place, where fears are enter
tanned that trouble will ensue on the ar
rival of more gold-seekers.
The attorney general sent to the sem
ate today a letter written by Assistant
United States Attorney McMechan, Civ
ing the results of his investigation into
the recent burning of two Seminole In
dams in Oklahoma by mob. He says
that the sentiment in the neighborhood
of the crime is all with the mob, and he
was informed that it would not be we'll
for him, or any other person, to go into
that locality if it was known that the
object of the visit was to locate the con-
spirators.
Representative Payne of New York
today introduced a bill to amend the
navigation laws. The purpose is to
favor American shipping in the Alaskan
trade, instead of letting it pass into the
hands of foreign vessel owners.
Secretary Alger's condition was so
much improved today that his physician
permitted him to take a short carriage
ride.
Representative Loud of California to-
day introduced bill admitting to Amer
lean register the steamship Zealandia,
owned by the Oceanic Steamship COM
pany of San Francisco, on a showing
that She is capable of being converted
into an armored cruiser, suitable as a
part of the naval reserve.

Will Plead Guilty

SUISUN, Cal, Feb. 7.-Bellew was
seen again this morning. He still wants
to plead guilty and does not wish his
relations to spend money for his de-
fense. He clings to the idea that by
confessing he may get life imprison-
ment. He is, however, prepared for the
worst. He is carefully watched, but the
report regarding his attempted suicide
Is false. He speaks frequently of his
love for his wife. He wishes to be left
alone as much as possible. He was
visited by his brother Tom today and
they conversed regarding family mat
ters. He still asserts that his portion
of the estate was not the motive for his
crime.

that should be would depend largely
upon the present action of the United
States senate. If we should elect tt
make the islands part of the United
States the American people would al
once become the counseling element in
| Hawaii, but if we should fail to take ad-
Iyantage of the opportunity now offered
some other people would in all probable
lity assume the position of control
which naturally and traditionally be-
longs to the United States.
He controverted the position OF Sena-
tors Pettigrew and White that Ameri-
cans could not labor in the Hawaiian
| islands.
He quoted weather statistics to show
that the temperature on the islands
coasts ranged from Sc to IS during the
year, which he said was far from being
an oppressively hot climate Farther in
land it was still cooker, and on the noun
tains frosts were not infrequent. If the
| white man of this country should not
| be impressed with the islands, Mr.. Teller
| thought they would make an excellent
| location for the colored people of the
United States, who might desire to leave
! this country, and would find congenial
employment in the sugar plantations
and coffee fields of Hawaii
Mr.. Teller also discussed the conten-
ton that the Hawaiian group was not
o. the most direct line of travel between
tn e western hemisphere and China and
JA oan. Any vessel which might come
arc und the horn or cross the Isthmus of
Pal anna in the case of the construction
of canal, would almost certainly take
10 . icla ndS in, re n
Shal lghai or any other far eastern port.
Furt hermore the islands We're a great
conv enience as a coalng and good sup
ply point for vessels plying the Pacific
ocean. Taking up the question of the
neces sity for the defense of the islands
and of the maintenance of the large
fleet in their waters in case of annexa-
ton, he said that this was a mere bug
aboo and was without foundation in |
fact. All that would loe necessary would |
be to fortify Pearl harbor for the pro-
lection of coal and military stores in |
times of hostility.
Senator Teller was frequently inter- !
rupted during the delivery of his |
speech by Senators White, Pettigrew. |
Gear and others.

TOMBSTONE, Arz., Feb Ut appears
that the soldiers of Uncle Sam stationed at
Fort Huachuca, south OF Tombstone, near
the Mexican border, have been feeding of
late on stolen meat. William Garvey, the
beef contractor. and Charles Wilson. bis
employee, are under arrest in Tombstone,
charged with grand larceny on eighteen
counts. There are eighteen complainants,
each producing at least one hide to prove
his charge. Garvey has been suspected by
his neighbors for nearly a year He was
killing many steers and buying too few.
a search of his premises was therefore
made, with the result that thirty hides
were found in a nearby prospect hole and
forty-seven more buried or hidden about
the premises. The brands of the hides so
found were inevery case those of Baboco.
