Called Grain-O. 1t IS delicious. APP
petizing, nourishing food drink TO
take the place Of coffee. Sold by all
groeers and liked by all who have
used it because when properly pre-
pared it tastes Ike the finest coffee
but is free from all injurious proper
ties. Grain-O aids digestion and
strengthens the nerves. 1t is not a
stimulant bat a health builder, and
children as well as adults can drink
it with great benefit. Costs about ]

The MOUSE IN TIE PIANO.
II Ran n;ss at che sound OF Classical
Music. Hut Not for Two-Steps.

II Ran n=s at che sound OF Classical
Music. Hut Not for Two-steps.
Speaking OF mice" said Mr.. Bifflc-
by according 10 tie New York Sun, "a
friend of mine thar owns an old-fash-
toned piano tells me that when it was
being played upon the other day a
mouse ran out OF il and scampered
around on the top and then ran down a
curtain whose folds touch the piano at
one end. The mouse has done this
twice in single day.
''Search was made in the interior of
the instrument for mouse's nest, but
none was found. Perhaps the mouse
had only Just selected this place and
had not yet begun building when il was
first attracted by the sound of the
strings. However that may be. il still
comes back. and il comes out and runs
away only when classical music is
played. and not for two-steps and that
sort of thing.
As 10 the accuracy of these facts
there can, of course. be no doubt The
only question in my own mind is as 10
whether the mouse's failure TO come
out when the two-steps and SO on are
played really indicates preference for
the lighter forms of music, or that
er-r-the mouse isn't there"

Caucu~es in the several towns Of
Grant comfy this year will be called
and conducted in the same manner as
heretofore. There mas been some
question whether the new caucus
law is applicable to Grant county but
It has been officially proclaimed by
First Assistant General ErdalI that
the law does not apply in any way to
caucuses held in towns Another
thing must be kept in mind. The
villages and towns will meet together
in caucuses as heretofore and will not
be separated for caucus purposes.
In fact there will be no change from
two years ago in the manner of hold
ing caucnses and conventions in this
county.

Washington, April 5.-Mr. Turner
wash. in the Senate today made a
vigorous speech in favor of Cuban free
dom. He said the administration mad
not acted as it should/ or it would have
freed Cuba tefore fhis. He laid great
stress Upon the destruction of the Maine,
saying that Spain was responsible. He
would cheerfully vote for declaration OF
war. lie said that Spain was nation of
cruelty, deceit and blood.
Mr.. harris (Kns. followed Mr.. Turner
In speech ON the same line. The Gu
hans had earned liberty by blood and
tears, he said. He charged the destruo-
tion of the Maine to official treachery on
the part of Spain. The blaokest crime of
all the nations, he declared. would not be
allowed to become mere incident.
MIR. Harris was applauded by the CALLER
les when he closed.
Mr.: xenuey (Dsl. said his stateIwas
united In favor of Cuban independence,
aud the PEOPLE of Cuba deserved the sym
pathy OF the civilized world.
MIR. Kenney said that had the resolu-
House Cuba wouli have been free and
thousands Of lives and millions of treas
ure saved. Those who had refused to
pass that resolution were responsible be-
fore the country.
Mr. Kenney said Spain, true to its ira
ditions of blood and brutality, held Cuba
In starving bondage. The destruction of
the Maine was the crime Of the nine
teenth century. War was held, but it
would be better than the hell In Cuba,
bstter than the hell OF February B. No
longer should 90 unavenRed the blood
shed In Havana harbor. No longer
should diplomatic claptrap stop ven-
geance for innocent blood or prevent Gu
ban freedom.
