M'COOK'S TESTIMONY.


Major General McCook (retired), a
member of the war investigating COM
mission, was the neXt witness. He was
present and he heard a part of Gen
eral Eagan'S testimony before the COM
mission.
"The impression 1 had" he said,
was that General Eagan must be Ia
boring under great nervous excite
ment.' He recalled some of the Ian
guage used, and it agreed substantial
ly with the testimony as published. He
was shown a copy of the specifications,
n identified some of the language as
having been used by General Eagan.
The words, Il want to force the lie
back into his throat, covered with the
contents of a camp latrine," General
McCook did not hear. H had his own
views as to such language as he had
first heard, and he had turned away
and did not heal this sentence. The
witness recalled a remark made by the
president in regard to the immunity OF
witnesses. The president had said in
substance that any person who should
come before the commission to give
evidence should receive immunity
from the action of any higher author
ity. 1t was the understanding of the
commission hat his immunity extend
only to legitimate testimony that could
be received by any tribunal. Nc writ
ten statement or order as to the i'm
munity of witnesses, as far as he knew,
had ever been made. General Miles
had appeared before the commission
some days before General Eagan was
heard. He had objected to being sworn,
and his statement had been received
without his taking the oath. General
Miles was the only witness. so far as
he recalled, who had objected to tax
ing the oath, although one witness in
New York had refused to swear that
he would tell the Whole truth. Other
witnesses had preferred to affirm. The
commission had no hard and fast rule
in regard to the matter of the oath.
The judge advocate then read at
some length from General Miles testi-
mOny before the war investigating
commission, which called forth the OBJ
jectionable language in General Ea-
gan's statement.
At the conclusion of the reading of
General Miles statement, Judge Wor-
Ellington read at length from General
Eagan's revised testimony before the
investigating commission. At ,
o'clock the court adjourned until 10
o'clock tomorrow morning.

THREE F WRECKS.
Plain Facts Worth Considering.

-Q1LL avs W O1IA OJ1ISlueIluG
For the past six years, up to twelve
months ago, l vas a perfect wreck and
slave to coffee. 1t kept me in a pros
trated condition continually.
Gradually my heart became affected.
and l suffered intense pain in the left
side and over the region of the heart.
Every now and then had nervous
spells that laid me up for weeks at a
time. 1 was also troubled with short
ness of breath whenever L eXerted my
self in any way.
L could not lie on my left side, and my
sleep was broken with severe pains
and smothering sensations. The doc
tor told me that it was coffee-drinking.
1 put myself under his treatment,
but did not leave off the coffee, and as
l obtained 10 help, became Respondent
and gloomy.
BY chance I learned of the Postum
Food Coffee, and concluded l would
try and quit the coffee habit and use
Postum. After a weeks time [ felt
greatly improved, and continued using
the Postum and am still using it. My
appetite returned to me, and I gradu-
ally regained my health and strength,
and am now as well and hearty as /
ever was. ! have had no return of my
heart trouble since using Postum.
l do not understand that Postum is
IN any way q medicine, DGL Inat IL is q
food, whereas the ordinary coffee is a
very powerful drug, as shown in my
case and many others.
Two Of my near neighbors We're adj
dicted to coffee, and it treated them
much as it did me. They are Mrs. NJ.
n. Powell and Mrs. Mary Pitts.
When they found what a change had
been made in me by leaving off coffee
and using Postum, they threw away
their old coffee pots, got some new
ones and began to use Postum. The
first time they tried it they did not
like it very well, but they soon found
that they had not allowed it to boil
long enough. Now they are two as
healthy ladies IS o eve saw, rosy
and well; their physical aches and ills
all gone. They sleep and CT well. and
seem to enjoy life better than they ever
did before. Mrs. Emma Harris, Paris,
