FIGHT ON EVANS.
Ohio Veterans to Make a Vigorous
and United Attack on Him.

Columbus. O., Sept. 25.-The Ohio pru-
Dental committee of the honOrably dis
charged union soldiers of the war of
the rebellion, who consider themselves
wronged by the pension department,
has opened state headquarters in this
city, and the veterans expect to make
things interesting for the national ad-
ministration from now until after the
presidential election. This committee
is in correspondence with ex-soldiers
and their families all over the state
who say they have been wrOngfully
treated by Pension Commissioner EV-
ans in the rejection of their claims.
Chairman Marshall is in receipt OF
scores of letters denOuncing COmmis-
sioner Evans. There are several thOus-
and veterans in Ohio who belong to the
organization The majority of these
have heretofore been Republicans, but
if Commissioner Evans is not removed
or the pension wrong corrected they
will vote against Judge Nash, the ad-
miniStratiOn candidate this fall, in or
der to prove the sincerity of their fight,
and send a note of warning. The COM
mittee will in a few days begin sending
out circulars to the 9.400 soldiers whose
names they have secured in which the
situation will be explained and a line
of action formulated.

MORE MARINES.
The Navy to Take Prominent
Part In Philippine War.

New York, Sept 25.-A Herald special
from Washington says:
Brigadier Charles Haywood, COM
mandant of the marine corps is in favor
of strengthening the marine force at
Cavite by another battalion of his
corps. The matter has not yet been Of
fcially approved by the department,
but it is probable that the marines will
be ordered, especially in view of the in
tention of Gen. Otis to let the navy
have full swing in the province of Ca
vite. 1t is further pointed out that Ad-
miral Watson has depleted the force
necessary for operations in this pro-
vince by sending a strong detachment
to garrison Subig bay and it is deemed
advisable to fill their places at Cavite
by additional men. Great deeds are ex-
pected of the marines. Cen Haywood
has carefully selected the men sent. OF
the two battalions at Cavite or en- the
way nearly $50 men are sharp shooters
of the first-class and it is expected that
they viii do effective work when they
begin active operations in the fall.
Measures have been initiated by Rear
Admiral Bradford, chief of the bureau
of equipment, to establish a strong ma
val station at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii

A NATURAL BRAIN BUILDER
Brains Are Made and Rep aired
by Food. USE GOOD FOOD.

In hot weather a meat breakfast is
not always desirable, one looks rather
TO some more cooling food. such as
fruit and cereals.
One of the great advantages of
Grape-Nuts lies in the fact that it is
ready cooked and can be served at
once.
Treated with cream it is as delicious
as CONNECTION, and at the same time
furnishes the user with the needed food
elements of the most perfect character
and combined in a scientific manner.
One Of the food particles in Grape
Nuts is true Natural Phosphate of
Potash as furnished in certain parts
Of the field grains and this is the ele-
ment used by nature to change albu-
men into the soft gray substance with
which the brain and nerve centers are
filled and which must be replaced daily
as it is used up by the activities of the
body
Steady users of Grape Nuts are
nervy, brainy and healthy people. Wise
selection of food is a duty everyone
owes self and those dependent upon US.

INDIANS ARE STARVING.
General Merriam Declares Colorado
Has No Right to Stop Their
Hunting Trips.

Denver, Colo, Sept. 25.-General H.
c. Merriam, commander of the depart
ment of Colorado, says the state has no
right to restrain Indians whose treaty
prerogative allows them free access to
hunting grounds in any part of the
state.
The Indians are in deepest distress
owing to the scarcity of rations served
by the government. Many of them are
actually starving and almost all are in
wretchedly poor condition, being unable
to subsist on what is raised on their
farms.
AS white men kill game with immuni-
ty General Merriam believes Indians
are justified in trying to save their own
lives.

YOUR CORN"
That Is Secretary Coburn's Advice to
Farmers


F D. Coburn. secretary of the state
board of agriculture, believes that the
farmers of Kansas should so into the
trust business on q moderate scale and
advises them to hold their corn, If pos
sible, until next year, when he says.
there is likely to be a strong demand
at a good price. Mr. Coburn has writ
ten the following upon this subject
''As never before to the same extent
and in the same line the farmers OF
Kansas are about to be confronted with
an opportunity for very judiciOus bus

days they will harvest the greatest Of
all the great corn crops that state has
ever produced Except for those who
are IL position to convert their surplus
into meat and milk, prices VIII a Z best
for a time rule too low TO afford such
a profit as the grower has rightly earn

There has never been a season Of
unusual production and low prices for
corn which was not in the near future
followed by one of comparative scarcity
with prices correspOndingly high. and
there is no sufficient reason for be-
Iieving this 50 far unvarying rule Is
likely to be changed for the present Oc-
caSiOn. The moral of this is that farm
ers should market as grain no more
of their present crop than is absolutely
necessary. They would rightly have
considered themselves favored and
nightly prosperous with a yield less
bv one hundred million bushels than
as they could do very comfortably this
extra hundred million bushels in sub

to that extent the downward pressure
of a glut on the market and help 10

situation when prices advance or there
is another shortage.
