BY COMMERCIAL MEN

CHICAGO, Oct 1.-THE train bearing the
presidential party from the north slipped
into Chicago at 24O o'clock this afternoon
and was transferred to the Michigan Cen
tral tracks and left for Michigan points and
the east Immediately.
As the train passed through Lake Forest
the golf links were deserted and the players
surrounded the station cheering Justify 4
short stop was made and President McKin-
ley bowed to the throng, but there was no
speaking
When the train arrived at the Northwest
orn station here a guard Of policemen was
stationed along each side of the cars. There
was not a large gathering of people, rs few
apparently knew that the president was to
arrive. Most of the people who crowded
around the rear car containing the president
were passengers awaiting trains.
President Mckinley did not appear and no
speeches were made. few friends en-
tered the presidents car during the ten
minutes wait and greeted him, The train
was then transferred to the Michigan Cen
trai tracks and left at once for Kalamazoo,
Mich, and the east.
At Kalamazoo, Mich, the city entertained
the presidential party in novel way this
evening, while a carnival and street fair
were in progress. me tnlteu COmnercldl
travellers, $500 strong, were delegated to
furnish the entertainment Senator Burrows
met the president at Chicago and was re-
inforced by another committee at Niles.
When the train reached Kalamazoo 100
| carriages drew up and a procession was
formed, with President Mckinley and cabinet
in front. The commercial travellers marched
one on each side of the carriages carrying
iambeaux of red fire. The streets were
decorated for miles and at least 100000 peo-
pie brought by excursions thronged the side
walks.
AS the president appeared cheer after
| cheer ran down the long line and was taken
| up by the people in the booths on side
| streets The drive lasted forty minutes and
| no speaking was INDUCED in. At o'clock
| the presidential party boarded its train and
| departed for Jackson.
At jackson, Mich, President Mckinley
spoke briefly. Several thousand people

A SCIENTIFIC REPORT ON
COFFEE,
Shows IT Can he Used by Some. and Is
Poison to Others.

A gentleman connected with the Newberry
through the medical department, consulting
and compiling from the best works of this
country and abroad, on the value of coffee
There Is abundance of evidence to show
that in some cases coffee. used as a stimu-
liant, is Of advantage, while with many
human systems II 10 a decided poison which
will build up chronic conditions OF disease
II made Use of steadily.
The investigator writes: I'VE have used
for years your Postum Food Coffee and found
nothing to fill its place Among his quota
tionS appears the following:
"One of the highest authorities in nateria
medca and therapeutics in England says:
Caffeine, which is the stimulating part OF
coffee, is, in general terms stimulant first
and subsequently a paralyzant to the nerve
centers in the cerebelum, medulla and
spinal cord.
In small doses it qulckens the activity Of
the heart and raises arteral tension. Larger
doses often over stimulate the cerebral cir
culation, causing great heaviness OF the head
flashes of light before the eyes, insomnia,
restlessness, and even delrium. Admins
tered in sufficient quantity, ii would doubt
less prove fatal to man.
'"To thousands of people coffee, of which
caffeine is its chemical structure, is therefore
poison Languor, restlessness and pros
traton follow as result in the system
when the habit OF It's continuance is acquired
This is followed by muscular tremor and
sometimes dizziness. with nervous dyspepsia
and insomnia in fact train of depressing
ails frequently not traceable to the beverage
which never inebriates, but is in reality the
source"
The gentleman concludes his long and very
interesting paper on the subject with the
statement: Companies similar to that OF
the Postum Cereal Co, Ltd, of Battle
Creek are to be multiplied and stand as
benefactors of the race. Whatever our per
sonal preferences, let US not class these
changes in dietary to peculiar views and
! theories, but rather as generally recognized
and accepted truths, valuable acquisition

philanthropic,"
The rapid pace lived by American brain
workers has forced them TO seek food ans
drink that quickly and surely rebuild tht

Two Thousand Operatives of Spring
valley Coal Company Resent
an Alleged Injustice,

SPRING VALLEY, H., Oct H.-State
President j. NJ, Hunter arrived here last
night on the call OF the executive committee
OF this district and today called a strike of
the 1000 miners employed by the Spring
Valley Coal company. The men all struck
and the supply of coal from this point will
drop 5000 tons daily until a settlement is
made. The difficulty which brought on the
strike Is alleged to have been the refusal OF
General Manager Dalzell to stop union dues
at the company's office
At mass meeting held this afternoon,
at which 1000 miners were present, they
endorsed the action of State President Hun
ter OF the Illinois miners organizations In
calling out the men.
\ resolution was passed TO the effect that
before the men returned TO work General
Manager Dalzell OF the Spring Valley Coal
company would be compelled to recognize
the state and sub-district agreements which
the resolution alleges 10 have been violated
Mr.. Hunter and state Vice President Rus
sell made short, but vigorous, speeches to
the men, calling for the resolution, which
was passed unanimously.
1t was voted to bold no more meetings
until Mr. Dalzell receded from his posi-
tion and observed the state agreements and
recognized the miners committee.

essary for workmen to geek employment
but that the employers were seeking work
men.

Sir Thomas Upton Feels Keen Dtsnp-
pointmcnt. but Bears Up Brnvcly.
SANDY HOOK, n. j., Oct. l7.-Erin
with about 100 of Sir Thomas Liptons guests
and friends aboard, left its anchorage in the
Horseshoe at about 10 o'clock on the way to
the stakeboat. When Shamrock went
over the starting line today all hands agreed
that it was being beautifully handled and
that it would be able to hold It's own, and so
It appeared from Erin's deck until sud
denly the topmast snapped. At this time
hundred glasses were leveled en- the racers
from Erin's decks. Suddenly some one
shouted: "Shamrocks in trouble; look at
it's topsal futterng.'
ITS topmast has snapped" cried another,
and then there came cries OF CONSERVATION
and dismay from all parts Of Erin as it
became apparent that the mishap was a
fatal one.
Sir Thomas, on the bridge, never finched
nor changed countenance. Turning to DR..
Mackie and Captain Matthews, who stood at
his elbow, he said in a calm, low voice:
1--WE had better so to its assistance, cap
tain. Some one may be injured and require
your services. doctor"
To a gentleman who expressed sympathy
Sir Thomas replied: It's too bad, that S
! true, but it cannot be helped, and we must
| make the best OF It."
| Erin came alongside the crippled
racer. DR.. Mackie shouted through the
! megaphone to those on board:
| rs any one injured? Sir Thomas wishes
| to know"
| dozen voices shouted back negative
reply and Sir Thomas looked relieved.
1T doesn't matter so much,' he said,
"ncw that we know that no one was killed
or crippled"
When asked II he blamed any one for the
| accident he replied:
| "Oh, no, indeed, it couldn't be avoided
| am sure It was probably caused by a
| loose bolt or a broken backstay. No one
, appears to have been at fault in the matter
We will fix it up and try it again. Perhaps
we will be more fortunate another time.
"Nhen | cav its topmast CO. he added
Il experienced such shock as | never felt
in all my life before"
Some one then suggested the hope that the
wind die and, the race might not be lost tc
Shamrock after all.
II wish for nothing of the kind" said Sill
Thomas, emphatically. Under the condi-
tions governing the contest we have lost
this race as fairly as II We had gone ovel
the course without mishap and the Other
boat had finished first. | would not undel
any circumstances wish or consent that thi;

and at that period potato starch had
been made.
And now new uses came up, and
from that time to the present the field
has constantly widened, until the con-
sumption of starch is almost incredi-
ble The we'll known uses in kitchen
and laundry are as nothing compared
to it's uses in the cotton factories and
the print works in stiffening, dyeing
and cOloring in paper and cardboard
making, in tinting, and glazing fine
papers and cards, noodles and maca-
roni, whiskey and beer. Most any old
kind will do for these though. 1t is
even used in the iron and other metal
fOundries.
New and coming uses are many and
very interesting Already the quaint
ty of starch made and used amounts
to over one million tons annually.
Of the grains rice is richest in
starch, then wheat and corn. AS to
tubers and roots, the known and util-
lied stand in order thus: CasSava, ar
