ROOSEvELT'S BEEF STEW.

How the Colonel Ch.ersd His Men. .t His
Own Expense, at Critical Time.
An incident Illustrating Col. Roose-
Veits devotion to the men of his regi-
menf was told by Trooper Burkholder
or the rough riders, who, before re-
turning to his home in Phoenix, Ariz.,
spent few days at the home of his
friend. John Palmer, on Throop avenue
near Middleton street, williamsburg.
Burkholder was all through the active
campaign with the rough riders and re-
turned with them to Camp Wikoff.

OF slight attack of swamp fever

HENRY U. JOHNSON.
THE GRESSyIAN
RETURNS LAST
NIGHT.

He Will Remain Here Short Time
and Wiz Then Go TO ST. Louis to
Take Up the Work of His Profession,
to Which He Will Devote Himself
Exclusively in the Future,
The Hon. Henry U. johnson, ex-
repre- entative from the sixth congress
sioDal district, is Ia the city. He re-
turned hone last hight, and will re-
main in this city for some time. before
going west to take up the profe ssion
of law once more.
Mr. Johnson is looking splenddiy, but
says he is not at all we'll, as he has had
a recurrence of his grip, which always
takes deep and stub born hold on his
constitut on. He was seen and inter-
viewed brit fly this morning by PAL-
LADIUM reporter, to whom he stated
that he intended to remain in this city
some weeks, strengthening uD his at
fairs, before going to st. Louis. He
said:
will remain here for the present,
settling up my business affairs b fore
going TO St. Lonis. | will see that my
ssanilv Is more cosnfostebly settlsd.
They will remain here during the ex-
perimental stage of my practice in St.
Louis. My daughter is in Earlham
college, and | want her to finish be-
fore removing. Yes, shall leave pub
lie life, for | am done with it. | shall
give my entire time and attention to
the practice If my profession. The
code of Missouri Is very similar TO that
OF Indiana, and as have already been
looking it over, it it will not take me
long TO tamIliariz9 myself with 1t suf-
hcIently to enable me o take up the
practice there. The codes of New
York and Pennsylvania are simply ap-
paiilng. 1t would take even young
man a period of five or SIX y. ars to fit
himself for practice in the courts
, there, and | shall go to Missouri, where
the code Is so much more similar to
the one with which | am accustomed.
| am glad to get back to my business
again
Mr.. johnson vas asked with regard
to the situation In Penns yivania IS re-
ga;ds the senatorial fight, AID he
said:
! 1t is hard to predict the outcome.
II Is shameful that a man under indict-
ment for q serious crime should have
any considerable following III a race
for position IS United States senator.
Pennsylvania is the most ring-ridden
state in the union.n
He spoke Complimentary of Dal-
zelPs fitness for the position, but pre-
dicted that he would hardly win, as the
forces that are with Qaay would not

a noteworthy Compari.on

Total exports of dairy products in '97
We're 50, ,290 900 lbs. against S4Ss5. 900
"a years earlier. But in '73 exports
were nearly all cheese, SO. $50, 600 lbs.
while last year these amounted to scant
81 .oe9 .00o lbs. Butter exports mean
while were only 1900, 600 lbs In '73
against 81 .345, 900 lbs in '97. The year
81 showed the heaviest export business
in dairy products; from that date to
'aG the business fell off materially. but
it is now apparently on the up grade.
