COFFEE CAUSED 1T.

a Simple Way to Locate the Cause of
Disease.
| was troubled for years with my
stomach, and took all sorts of reme-
dies without being able to get well.
did not know all this time what was
the cause of the trouble, but since /
was the enemy that cost me so many
days and nights of suffering.
Within an hour after breakfast
where l would drink n cup of coffee.
1 would spit up the meal, and if 1
drank coffee for supper L would go to
bed and my nerves twitched and
jerked so badly that l was afraid to
lie down.
Sometimes my stomach would fiut-
ter terribly.
1 was afraid 1 wsuld have paraly-
sis, and firmly believe / would if l
had kept on using coffee.
/ believe so much coffee drinking is
the whole cause of SO many dying
and heart trouble.
ALI can say is all this nervousness
and stomach trouble has left me since
l have been using Postum Food Coffee
according to directions on the pack
age, and l know of quite number
that have been helped by Postum.
If people would use Postum Cereal
Food Coffee they would save hum
dreds of dollars in doctors bills, and
children would be stronger and
brighter if their parents would use it
instead of coffee. OF course it has to
be made right. but that is easy. Just
let it boil Is or 20 minutes after it
really starts to boiling, and you have
splendid drink.-Mrs. Annie Van

Foreigner Defeats and Furnishes the
Rochester Wrestler.

Rochester Wrestler.
Ed Atherton, who has wrestled on
several occasions before Rock Island
audiences, was defeated last night
at Rochester, n. Y, by Hall Adal. the
Turk. The conditions of the match
were that the Turk should throw Ath-
erton four times in an hour. Adali
won the first fall in 10 minutes and
As seconds. The fall was gained by
brute strength, Atherton's shoulders
touching the mat only after the Turk
had twisted his arm badly in one di-
rection and his ankle in the opposite.
1t required 10 minutes of doctoring to
enable Attherton to walk into the ring
again. The second fall was scored
in 4 minutes and 80 seconds. As Ath-
erton was unable to continue the I'M
equal contest the match was given to
the Turk. Atherton weighs 15S, and
the Turk 500.

No trouble is more common or more
misunderstood than nervous dyspep-

nerves are to blame and are surprised
that they are not cured by nerve med
icines. The real seat of the mischief
is lost sight of. The stomach is the
organ to be looked after.
Nervous dyspepties often do not
have any pain whatever in the stom-
ach, nor perhaps any of the usual
symptoms of stomach weakness. Ner-
vous dyspepsia shows itself not in
the stomach so much as in nearly
every organ. In some cases the heart
palpitates and is irregular; in others

Supreme Court VIII Not Take HIS Trial
From tile Hands OF the Local Court.


Philadelphia, Pa, Jan. l0.--The
petition OF United States Senator M.
S. Quay and others. for writ of GER
tiorari removing the trial of the con-
spiracy case against them from tho
local court TO the Supreme Court, was
today dismissed by the Supreme Court.
The case was renandcd to the Quar-
ter Sessions Of this city for trial, and
the costs Of the proceedings were placed
on the petitioners.
Tho petition OF the defendants. U. S.
Senator Matthew Stanley Quay, Richard
Il. Quay, his son. and Benjamin j.
Haywood, averred that on account of
political preiudicos they were of belief
that they could not obtain IA fair and
impartial trial IN tho Philadelphia
Court of Quarter Sessions, where the
suit against them was instituted.
Tho opinion of the court was handed
to the clerk but was not read from the
bench, Judge Sterrett merely announc-
ing the dismissal of the rulo 10 show
cause why writ Of certiorari should be
issued. There was no dissenting
The charge against the defendants
is that Of conspiracy with John S.
Hopkins, the cashier of the Peoples
Bank (who committed suicide in March
last, in the misuse Of State funds on
deposit in that bank.
The opinion handed down by Judge
Sterrett, to which there was no dis
sent, is promised with contradiction
of the district attorneys challenge
that the Supreme Court had no iuris-
diction in the case. The opinion holds
that it has such jurisdiction and sus-
tains tho point by previous decisions
on that point. 1t says, though, that
the question of certiorari must be
exercised in aid of the administration
of justice, not to defeat it or need
lessly embarrass it,, and that the court
cannot assent to the petitioners con
tention that it is this courts duty in
this case to review the action of the
court below in overruling the demurrers
to some Of the indictments and refus-
ing to quash the others.
The orders everything the demurrers
and refusing to quash are merely inter
locutory, the opinion says, land no
right of appeal therefrom to any court,
lies until after conviction and SEN
tence.'
The court therefore, is of the opinion
that it has no authority to review the
action of the court below on the de-
murrers and the motion to quash.

MRS. LAURA STR EETs ASSAULTED.
Attacked by Mrs. Fannie Lemon, Who
Used n Razor.

''If you had not interfered | would
have killed her," said Mrs. Fannie
Lemon, wife of John Lemon, the bother
of No. 1900 West Fourth street, as
police officers were taking her to tho
police station Monday afternoon, after
she had cut Mrs. Laura Streets with %
razor. Prompted by jealousy, and be
lieying that Mrs. Streets was stealing
her husband away from her, she had
assaulted her at Sixth and Market
streets, under the eyes OF Detective
Witsil and Policemen Davidson, Lyons
and Maloney, whose attention had been
attracted by her suspicious actions.
They disarmed her but not before she
had inflicted cut over Mrs. Streets
eye. The cutting alfray and the struggle
of the woman with the officers caused
great excitement, tho streets being full
of people returning homeward from
the afternoon performance at the Won
derland Theatre.
Mrs. Lemon was among those who
attended the performance. Mrs. Streets
and friend, Maggie Sterling, were
also there, and so was John Lemon.
Detective Witsil was among those who
noticed the suspicious actions of Mrs.
Lemon, who, attired in black and
heavily yelled, occupied box and
seemed to be looking for some one in
the audience. Shc left short time
before the end of the performance and
Detective Witsil followed her and con-
tinued to watch her. She was not
recognizable through her heavy veil.
When Mrs. Streets and Maggie Sterling
came along, Mrs. Lemon followed them,
and the detective, accompanied by
Officers Davidson, Lyons and Maloney,
followed her. When Sixth and Market
streets was reached Mrs. Lemon at
tempted to injure Mrs. Streets, slash
ing at her throat with a razor which
she drew from her cape. In her second
attempt she struck Mrs. Streets over
the eye, making cash, but by that
time the officers were struggling with
her and she was soon disarmed.
All three women went with the
officers to the police station, where
Mrs. Lemon threw off her veil and her
identity was for the first time dis
closed. She said she had heard stories
about her husband going to places of
amusement with other women and on
Monday saw him sitting beside the two
women. Lemon, however, says he
simply sat near them by chance. When
he learned of her arrest he threatened
to shoot himself, but was present in
City Court Monday night when she was
arraigned on charge of assault with
intent to commit murder. She was
held in $500 bail for further hearing
today and her husband went on
her bond.

Il DESPERATE FIG HI FOR LIFE.
St. louis Tailor Fatally Shot by a Highway

st. Louis, Mo-, Jan. 10. With the
police within block of the scene John
Lahiv, tailor, fought desperate
street battle with highwayman and
when the assailant had finished with
him he had received two wounds, one
of which will prove fatal.
Lahiv was walking in Lucas avenue
near Ninth street when he was ordered
by young man who had been follow
ing him to throw up his hands. The
tailor had IL large sum of money on his
person and wore diamond stud. In
stead of surrendering he reached for
his pistol, but before he could draw it
the robber knocked him down. Lahiv
jumped up and fired his revolver. The
highwayman returned the fire, the
bullet taking effect in Lahiv's groin.
After severe struggle, Lahiv sue
ceeded in knocking down the robber.
The highwayman, however, was too
strong for Lahiv, who was growing
faint from loss of blood. He kicked
the tailor in the face, drew another
revolver and fired, tho bullet lodging
in Lahiv's head. The tailor sank to
the ground, apparently lifeless, and the
robber escaped without any booty.
The police are inclined to think the
affair an assassination, and that the
assailant was an enemy of Lahiv.

Cape May, Jan. 9.-Expsnsion has
become the watchword at Cape 6Iay,
and strong effort is being made to
persuade the people that the way to
prosperity lies in the crontion OF a
Greater Cape May. Politicians, look
ing TO their own advantage, propose
that South Cape May and Cape May
Point be made part of tho city. This
would double the area, but would add
very few votes, and tho political adj
justment, as at present existing in tho
city, would not be disturbed. Those
who have considered the matter, free
from bias, however, propose to add
the popuIous borough of West Cape
May to the combination, and thus make
q Greater Cape May, extending from
sea to bay, and containing Ii square
miles OF territory. The Board OF
Trade fayors this plan, and is having
drawings and surveys made in order to
present it intelligibly both to tho
people and the Legislature when appli-
cation is made for charter. Another
plan involves the consolidation into n
separate city of West Cape May, South
Cape May and Cape May Point
boroughs, and the creation thus of u
new and vigorous municipality and sea-
side resort.
