CROKER SMILES,

If what some of the New York papers
are saying about the Jeffersonian dinners
which are 10 be given in that city next
month is to be relied upon, the quarrels
which have taken place among the 81 din
ner people bring smiles to the face of Mr.
Richard Croker, the boss of the $40 din
ner. 1t must be rather trying to Mr.. Bryan
to be in any way concerned in the quar-
rels of the 81 dinner Democrats. They have
broken into two factions, each faction
claiming the money which has been collect
ed for the dinner. the hall in which the
dinner is to take place and Mr.. Bryan as
guest. One calls itself the Chicago Plat
form Jeffersonian Dinner" and the other
says it is the "Workingmen's Jeffersonian
Dinner" Just how the matter will be
settled no one can say at this time with
any degree OF certainty.
II seems that Mr.. Bryan has not under
taken to decide as to which of the 81 din
ners he VIII attend, but has placed the en-
tire matter in the hands of John Brisben
Walker. No doubt Mr.. Walker will pilot
him SO that he will not run among dan
gerous shoals. Perhaps if he had 10 do
the whole thing over again he would keep
away from the Jenersonian dinners of the
New York Democrats. They are trouble
some now, and they may be a source of
trouble TO him next year. In the meantime.
however. Mr. Richard Croker smiles, be-
cause he says his $40 dinner promises to

a RATIONAL FOOD CURE.
O..@.@.@:@.@.@.@.@:@:@

One of the well known grocers in Wash
inston. d. c.. who supplies the food of
many of the brainy. representative men of
the country, says: Il have become an en-
thuSiastic consumer of Grape-Nuts. 1t has
constituted solely my morning and evening
meal for the past eight months. Previous

TO my notice through one of my customer.

a trial personally.
II had at the store for my supper. a dish

ceiNing at the same time how very appro :
priately the new food was named. Strange
as 1t may appear, its effect was almost at
once apparent. Seated that evening at my
home, l remarked to the family that it

and am untiring in strength" (The gen
tleman does not care to have his name
quoted publicly, but his store can be found
ft 8. g !5S Eighteenth street. Washington
Now for the reason. The man or woman
worn out with overwork or nervous pros
tration will find an immediate gain in
strength by the use of Grape-Nuts and
cream, because of the fact that the nat
ural phosphate of potash obtained from
certain parts of the grains. is one of the
strong elements in Grape-Nuts, and this is
presented to the system in the form de-
manded by nature: not as drug.
The system takes up the needed particles
of phosphate of potash. and it is now
known that the soft gray matter which
fills the delicate nerve centers throughout
the body, as well as the brain and solar
plexus, can only be made and renewed
from day to day by the action of phos-
pilates of potash on albumen. Albumen is
one of the principal elements of all food,
but unless albumen has with 1t in the
system n sufficient amount of phosphate
of potash. it cannot be. transformed into
brain matter without the action of this
particular element, for there is no known
way to make gray matter except by the
combination of albumen and phosphate of
potash.
: Therefore, when one uses Grape Nuts,
he makes use of the best scientific knowl-
edge of the day in the selection of food
for invigorating and revitalizing the body.
This food has become famous throughout
the world, and 1t is to be found in every
first-class grocery store. Grape-Nuts are
made by the Postum Co. at their factories
in Battle Creek. -

CALIFORNIA STAGE ROBBED.
Lone Highwayman Gets Away With
the Wells-Fnrgo Express

NAPA, CAL, Sept. 1.-THE Calistoga &
Lakeport stage was held up to-day by a
solitary highwayman who made off with
the express box.
The scene of the robbery known as
Desperate Bend was an admirable spot
for the successful carrying out of the
highwaymans plans. The road there runs
through heavy underground, and. coming
suddenly around n curve, the stage driver
was confronted BY Il masked robber who
covered him with shotgun and ordered
MIN to stop. The passengers were then
commanded to dismount from the stage
al ana We're drawn up in row, while the
hlshWayman abstracted the express box
OF Wells. Fargo & Co, but left the
United States mailbag and made no at
TEMPT to rob the passengers.
The robber then plunged into the thick
ct which ,adjoins the road. and the last
heard or him was a report which proha-
bly, indicated the blowing off of the lock
on the express box. The holdup was ac-
complished one mile from the Mount st.
Helena dollhouse. and Sheriff Dunlap, OF
Napa county. was promptly notified. He
started at once with "A posse in search of
the highwayman. of whom he has a good
description. The officers of Lake county
have also joined in the pursuit.
Wells, Fargo & Co. state that the value
OF the contents of the treasure box was
inconsiderable.

BRITISH AUTHORITIES GIVE THE
TRANSPORT CLEARANCE PAPERS.
COLONEL METCALF'S REPORT
SAYS THAT THE TRANSPORT WAS
NOT OvERCROWDED.
Food as Good as on other Transports
-COmplaints Were Made by Dis
charged Soldiers, Who Are
"Apt to Be Fault
fnding.o

WASHINGTON, Sept 1l.-Clearance
papers have been allowed the Tartar at
Hong Kong. 1t is expected that she will
proceed to the United States at once. The
information that clearance had been al
lowed came in a dispatch to Adjutant
General Corbin this morning from Colonel
Metcalf. commanding the Twentieth Kan
sas and the other troops aboard the trans
port.
1t is supposed that clearance papers were
allowed upon the suggestion of the British
foreign Office to the Brisish governor
at Hong Kong that it would be unwise to
interfere with American transports. An
other dispatch from Colonel Metcalf in
reply to one sent yesterday states that the
Tartar was not overcrowded and that
the food was as good as on other trans
ports leaving Manila. He said the trouble
arose among the discharged regular soldiers
who were returning home On board the
ship.
The text of the dispatch on the sub
ject of the release of the Tartar is as
follows:
HONG KONG, Sept. H.-Corbin, Wash
ington: Clearance allowed; sail to-day.
''METCALF.''
"Corbin, Washington: No more crowded
for complaint about food. Complaints
made by discharged regulars.

MANILA, Sept. 14.-Adjutant General,
Washington: No complaints received of
overcrowding Tartar befor sailing; troops

The incident is now regarded as closed
1t is learned at the state department that
the representations. made to Mr.. Choate,
our ambass at London, on this sub
ject, were not in the nature of protest.
I Many OF these volunteers were permitted
to go ashore from the Tartar at Hong
Kong. Some of them met a man named
Etzel, who. it was said, taught the Fill
pinos how to use machine guns There was
a row. the Americans threatening Etzel,
and he appealed to the police for protec-
ton. This was accorded him and the
soldiers returned to the ship.
