ANOTHER DOCTOR.
Coffee May Agree With Some People
and Not With Others.

Until a year ago, I was a most in
veterate coffee drinker.
I have always assiduously abstained
from all other forms of stimulants,
including tobacco, and hence could
easily localize the cause for the num-
erous abnormal symptoms I became
subject to. I grew nervous and irrit-
able became easily excited and exper-
fenced a decided loss of memory, to
gether with many other symptoms, in
dicating an unduly stimulated nervous
system. My appetite was poor, sight
deficient, bowels irregular. Like thou
sands of others, 1 could not bring my
self to believe that my favorite beverage
was the cause of my abnormal condi-
tons
About a year ago a package of Pos
tum Cereal came to my office, and L
disappointed with the trial, the liquid
being light-colored, weak and insipid.
1t lacked the strong flavor 1 had been
so long accustomed to.
I concluded, however, I would have to
cultivate a taste for it, and hence per-
sisted in drinking the almost tasteless
mixture for several weeks. until finally
became Disguised with it and quit it.
1 noticed, however, an improvement in
my nervous symptoms.
Shortly after this my attention was
called to your specific announcement as
to the length of time the mixture should
boil I took the subject up again, fol-
lowing the directions explicitly, and the
result was truly gratifying. The color,
the aroma, the taste and everything
Except the nerve racking stimulant)
was there, and I was completely salts
fed The nervous symptoms entirely
went, and all other abnormal conditions
vanished. The experience in my own
case naturally led to a conclusion as to
the cause of the disorders with many OF
my patients, and 1 have had occasion
in numerous cases to insist upon the
abandonment of coffee entirely, and the
substitution of Postum Food Coffee,
with highly gratifying results.

GEN. BROOKE'S CABINET
Is Thus Far Composed of Citizens OF
Havana.

Havana, Jan. 1.-two of the mem
berS of the cabinet of civil advisers
form will be Senior Domingo Mendez
Capote, former vice president of the
Cuban revolutionary government and
now president of the special Cuban
commission in Washington, and Jose
Gonzales Lanuza, a member of the COM
mission. Lanuza wired from Washing
ton today that he would probably be
detained there for several days. Seven
or eight names are on the list of posi-
bilities for the other two positions on
the cabinet. Thus far only Havana men
have been considered, but it seems de-
sirahle to make one selection from out
side the capital.
General Brooke would prefer to select
men from eastern Cuba, but no one yet
is in sight, and the other parts of the
island, If unrepreSented in the cabinet,
must not feel sighted or take umbrage
as Santiago does about the customs
General Ludlow's appointments, an
nounced last evening, please the Gu
bans, but the SpaniardS feel that their
element is inadequateiy represented.
Maxine Gomez, who is still in the
interior, continues to keep his pro-
gramme before the people. 1t is this,
in substance:
First, the island is not yet free and
independent; second, Cubans and Span
iards should unite in making it so;
third, all the inhabitants of the island
should give the United States full credit
and cooperate cheerfully for the pres
ent. General Gomez has written to the
principal Cuban commanders, instruct
ing them to keep the Cubans, soldiers and
civilians, from committing any outrage
upon the Spaniards, and to aid in the
arrest and punishment of any Cuban
guilty of such an offense. Gomez is re-
garded by the United States military
commission as scarcely suited to any
high civil office. He is considered a
soldier of fortune, his manners are of
the camp and he is deficient in educa-
ton He will be received with all pos
Sible courtesy if he comes to Havana,
though it does not yet appear how he
could become part of the civil admin
istration, as the forms of Oaths re-
quired for civil officials pledges allie
glance to the military government of
the United States in Cuba, obedience
to all the orders of the military govern
or and conformity to the existing laws
of Cuba and to such changes as may
hereafter be made to them.

ON THE NEW COURT.
The Court of Visitation May Include
Judges Carver and Pollock.

The politicians say that Governor
Stanley has practically decided to ap-
point Judge T. F. Carver of this city
and Judge R. C. Pollock of Winfield
and L. S. Crum of Oswego as judges
for the new court of visitation, created
by the special session of the legislature
for the control of Kansas railroads.
Stanley's close friends say he has as
yet given this matter little thought,
as the appointments will not be made
until March, in time for the men to
take their positions April 1.
1t is said that Mr.. Crum should not
have the place, as he is not a lawyer,
and some of his friends are authority
for the statement that he will be mar
shall of the board, this officer being
charged with the responsibility of en-
forcing the orders which the court may
make There is one thing certain, and
that is that Mr.. Crum is not a candidate
for warden of the penitentiary and
would not accept it were the place ten
dered him.
The creation of this court prevents
Jim Simpson getting back on the board
of railroad commissioners. Had the
old law not been repealed Simpson
claims he would have been elected, but
he realizes and has told his friends that
Stanley would not appoint him to any
position and he has retired from the
race. Just what Simpson has picked
out is not known, but he is one of the
men who insist upon having something.
The mention of Judge Pollock in con-
nection with this case is due to the
fact that it is generally conceded that
he is out of the race for superintendent
of insurance, and that this place will
go to either Smith of Mcpherson, Pos
tlethwaite of Jewell or Mcneil of Col
umbuS.
The appointment of A. w. Smith
would be a bitter punishment for Jim
Simpson, who has been fighting Smith
for several years, first one then the
other winning a victory in Mcpherson
county,

OPEN WIDE THE DOOR.
Says Jerry Simpson, to the Enlisted
Men of the Navy.

Washington. Jan. 14.-During the de-
bate on the naval personel bill in the
house, Mr.. Simpson Pop., Kan.) said the
bill seemed to him a measure for giving
naval officers larger salaries and more
honorable station. He endorsed the
feature of the bill which held out to en-
listed men the possibilities of commits
sions in the service. He would, he said,
open the door wide and make it posi-
BILE for an enlisted man to rise to the
highest rank in the navy.
Mr.. Berry Oem., KY warmly su-
ported the bill. In the course of his re-
marks, Mr.. Berry made the first allu-
sion on the floor of the house to the
mooted question as to who was respon
sib1e for the victory over Cervera's fleet
at Santiago.
81 believe the bill will remove con-
flict,'' he said, land if there is any coun-
try where there is a necessity for the
removal of conflict in the army or the
navy, it is United States. I think we
have a magnificent phase of conflict in
the army service of the United States
presented in the papers and whether it
will end in a duel or not I do not know,
but it seems that there is a very con-
siderable amount of friction in the army
of the United States. There was some

MEDAL FOR MISS GOULD.
Resolution Providing For It offered
in the Senate.

Washington, Jan. 14.-In the senate Mr..
Gray Del) introduced a joint resolution
as follows:
THAT in recognition of the patriotic de-
votion and bounteous benevolence of Helen
Miller Gould to the soldiers of the army
of the United States during the war with
Spain, the cordial appreciation of con-
gress is hereby rendered to her and con-
gress hereby authorizes and directs that
a gold medal with appropriate designs be
prepared by the director of the mint and
that said medal be presented to her by
the president of the United States, at such
termine.''
The resolution was referred to the COM
mittee on military affairs.

BUFFALO JONES' LECTURE.
It Was Good, But It Hadn't Been
"Boomed," and It Needs Pictures

Buffalo Jones will have to possess
more nerve than took him on his peri
lous journey into the frozen regionst Of
the far northwest if he continues his
lecture tour with last nights audience
as a criterion. Mr.. Jones needs a man
ager who knows how to advertise him.
That's about all that is lacking.
1t was an audience of very discourag-
ing proportions to the explorer last
night. 1t refused to bunch, and instead
of a respectable small group of people
in the vicinity of the footlights, the ad-
VenturouS weSterner was compelled to
talk to his auditors scattered about in
all locations in the parquet, who looked
lonesome as they listened. The receipts
did not pay for the opening of the
house.
However, Mr.. Buffalo Jones is a
brave man and he saw his lecture
through. He appeared the stage
wearing a sack coat of fur, the material
of which once adorned the form of one
of the victims of his rifle. 1t was APP
parent from the start that in a lecture
contest he might not come out with first
prize, but he was never at a loss for
words and in an offhand style peculiar
ly his own he told of his trip into the
spoke of his adventures in the west in
the early days and recited personal ex-
periences in buffalo hunting and rails
ing.
plored Northwest he said that his in
tention in starting out was to bring
back several musk. oxen with a view
of DEMONSTRATING and raising the ami
mails. He secured several fine speci-
mems, but before he could get them
out of the Indian country the Indians
killed them on the theory that if he was
allowed to take the animals out of their
territory other hunters would follow his
example and in time rid the country of
the animals. AS the Indians live al
most wholly on the meat of the musk
OK they looked upon his scheme as
very serious matter.
The explorer took occasion to state
during the course of his talk that the
Northwest Territory was unlike Kan
sas in as much as all laws were strictly
enforced there, particularly the laws
in regard to the sale of liquor.
Buffalo Jones' talk was entertaining
1t would have been just as entertaining
to a large audience. The lecture last
night was the explorers first expert
ment.
If Mr.. Jones will add a stereopticon
to his outfit with pictures of scenes and
incidents in the far Northwest and
have also a collection of specimens and
relics, with good advance agent, there
isn't the slightest doubt that he will
have large audiences. But he ought to
see to it that he is well advertised, and
gives a good show for the money!

CUBANS ON A STRIKE.
Too Many Kinds of Money Causing
Trouble at Santiago.

Santiago de Cuba, Jan. 1.-THE labor
ers in some of the sugar estates in the
Guantanamo district have gone on a
strike and the trouble is likely to spread.
The cause assigned by the strikers is
that the storekeepers charge a discount
on Spanish gold. The men say they
receive the same amount now as under
the old regime, but are compelled to pay
nine per cent on their purchases
Governor General Brooke, replying to
a number of questions, addressed to him
on currency, rations and values, says
government collections and disburse-
ments in the department must be made
upon the basis of American gold.

BETTER ABOLISH POLL TAX
It Is Always Collected Unfairly and
Extensively Wherever Tried.

c. E. Rugh, city attorney of Abilene,
has prepared a bill with reference to
the collection of poll taxes in cities of
the second-class, which he is sending to
members of the legislature. 1t will be
introduced into the senate the first OF
next week by Senator Lewelling.
The bill provides that all men be-
tween the ages of q and As must either
work two days on the streets or pay 50
to the street commissioner. At pres
ent they can hire a substitute for 81
and the consequence is that the city
does not get good service. Mr.. Rugh
wants to cut off the substitute business,
and have the street commissioner hire
the work for people who do not wish
to do it themselves.

No Appointments yet.

The governor has made no appoint
ments up to this time and will probably
make none for several days, perhaps
longer. He said: 81 have not had time
to consider these matters yet because
so many people have been in to see me.
I will hear what every one has to say,
then I Will get to work on the appoint
ments. AS long as q man comes into
the office to present these matters to me
I hear him.
