CAMPBELL INDICATED.
Easily Accounts Tor Every Dollar and The In.
dictment Is Dismissed.

New York. April 1S.-By a decision
Of Judge Blanchard in the court OF
general sessions. Monday, and made
public, late Monday evening, and con-
lirmed again today, by a statement
from District Attorney Gardiner, Law
yer I. 9. Campbell was completely vim
Dictated on a charge of grand larceny
ana an Indictment for that offence
against him was dismissed. Campbell
was indicted in November for grand
larceny. The compliments were Te-
resa and Georgianna Fenley, orphans
Of this city. They accused Campbell
OF holding money belonging to the
Fenley estate. Campbell at that time
claimed that politics and spite were
back or the Indictment.
Campbell pressed his case continual
ly and finally Judge Blanchard ordered
the district attorney to prosecute or
dismiss the case. The case was final
ly placed on trial before Judge Blan-
chard. last Thursday. All of Camp

A TRUE BRAIN


The statement is made and is sus-
ceptible of proof that brains are built
somewhat as 4 wall or house is built
of certain defined and well understood
things
Wood may be the principal and larg-
est article in a house, but it cannot be
formed into a house without the nails,
bolts or screws TO hold it in shape
We know that albumen is the bulki-
est thing used by Nature in building q
human brain: but albumen alone does
not make a brain. 1t requires the
small particles of Phosphate of Potash
dixie the nails in the house, to form the
albumen into what is known as gray
matter in brain and nerve tissue
The albumen exists in large quanti-
ties in a variety of food
The Phosphate of Potash is found in
its truest form in certain parts Of field
grains. When a man shows brain IN.
or woman shows nervous symptoms.
it is prima facia evidence that the
Phosphate of Potash is used up faster
than the food supplies it. Therefore
either quit the worrying work or get
food strong in the natural Phosphate
of Potash. to more quickly and surely
replace the daily loss.
That is the especial GRAND of the
famous food. Grape Nuts.
Good sturdy nerves and a healthy
active tireless brain, will make a man
rich where he is sure to fail when the
brain is unable to carry out the be-
hests of the mind.
Remember that Phosphate of Potash
as drug, will not do. for Nature takes
kindly only to such body builders when
presented in food as prepared in
Dame Natures own laboratory.
Grape Nuts are to be found in all
first-class groceries, and once tried
the delicious flavor will never be for
gotten, while the feeling Of increased
strength and vigor Of brain and nerves
will tell its own talex

LABOR MEN AND HAWAII

Detroit, Dec. 19.-The American
Federation of Labor today declared
against slavery within the jurisdic-
ton Of the United States In the follow
ing language:
I'VE reafIirm our previous position
on this question, namely, that there
must be no slavery or serfdom, by
ownership or contract, tolerated under
the American flag, and that we will
make any one whose action shall in
any way initiate against this princi-
pie of human freedom responsible for
such action in every legitimate manner
open to u.s."
1t was stated that 100000 slaves are
now working under contract In the
Hawaiian Islands; that evasion of the
contracts commits them to prison; that
their time In prison is added to their
terms of serfdom, and that the act OF
admitting Hawaii to the United States
domain provided for continuation OF
those contracts. a provision for repeal
ing that feature having been voted
down by the Senate. The convention
adopted the declaration unanimously.
