HOT MORNING BREAKFAST.
Comfort Depends on Food.

1t is not easy to arrange tempting
breakfast for hot morning, but every
one appreciates such a breakfast and
enjoys the relief from the heated blood
caused by meat and coffee breakfast.
In fact by skillful selection of food
even the hottest day can be made quite
comfortable.
Start with fruit Of some kind. then a
dish Of Grape-Nuts food with cold
cream, one or two soft boiled eggs. a
slice OF bread and butter and cup of
cocoa or Postum Food Coffee. On that
sort OF a meal one will be fully nour-I
ished until the midday.
Grape-Nuts food is concentrated and
powerful, imparting to the user sense
of reserve force and strength. The
strong man thinks the weather moder-
ate and comfortable when the nervous.
weak man thinks 1t unbearably hot.
Grape-Nu food ID perfectly cooked at
the factory and ready for instant use.

MAJ. HOLMES insane
Former Iowa Congressman and Well
Known Public Man Loses
His Mind.
Illness and Financial Troubles the
Cause ofHis Mental Break
Down.
----
Practiced Law at Boone, Became
Congressman and Held Other
Public Offices.

Special to Times Republican,.
Hon. A. j. Holmes were deeply panied
to learn that the Illness with which he
has been afflicted for quite a long time
had finally terminated in the loss of his
mental powers. His condition has been
so serious for the past few days that
those who knew him most intimately
became deeply solicitous as to his well
fare and feared that the most serious
results might arise. Mrs. Holmes has
devoted every hour of her time to her
afflicted husband and watched With
alarm and sorrow the clouds gathering
about his mind. Within the past daySor
two she has found her task a most diff
ticut one indeed, yet she continued her
watch with that patience and devotion
her efforts Were, however. as hope
against hope. The clouds thickened un-
til the darkness became intense and the
Light of the once bright mind passed In
To obpurity.
The insanity board. consisting Of E..
Harner, clerk of the district court. DR..
n. DeTar and G.. w Crooks. called at.
the residence of Major Holmes yester-#
day to ascertain the extent of the mall
!ady and determine whether If possible
amy relief could be administered The
case Was more serious than they had
expected and the only question remain-
ing for them to determine was whether
relief might be obtained at the hospital
for the insane. DIR. DeTar advised that
the only hope rested with the hospital
and the board made an order for the
transfer of the patient TO the hospital at
Clarnda. Sheriff 6iayner Will, accord
iilgly, leave for the asylum With the pa
Stient today.
The Republican says: The unfortu-
nate condition of Maj. Holmes is in a
measure attributed 10 financial trou-
bles. He has also been q sufferer from
sBright's disease for several years. His
weakened physical condition and worry
over monetary losses have. it is
thought. combined TO unsettle his mind.
Local attorneys who have been asso-
sciated with Maj. Holmes say they first
noticed symptoms Of his weakened
mentality as much as four years ago.
Nothing especially serious was then
regarded as the matter Within the
past year or SO his mental Weaknesses.
at times appeared to grow more pro-.
nounced. but it was not until within
the past few days that any serious
alarm was felt.
Maj. Holmes has resided in Boone
since 1865. He was in the early days
associated in the law business with r
+. Webb. Later he and Hon. L. w.
Reynolds formed law partnership.
which continued until Maj. Holmes was
elected ,oscongress. He served in con-
sress two terms and then was chosen
sergeant alarms of the house of rep-
IsresentatiYes for two years. He was ar
able lawyer and as a representative Of
the people was faithfully devoted to
their interests. His integrity and un-
questioned honesty has always won foi
him the highest esteem Of the peopl..
Isof this community and of all others
with whom his wide range of business
experience has brought him in contact.

ONE NOTABLE CIA.,GE.

Under New Army Eill Promotions Can Be
Made by Selection.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2l.-The secretary
Of war has sent to the chairman of the
senate and house military committees a
draft of a bill that the department
claims greatly strengthens the military
system and remedies defects developed
during the SPANISH American war. The
bill was introduced in the house by
Chairman Hull. A chief feature of the
legislation asked for provides for one.
third Of the promotions to be made by
selection. This is to enable the presi.
dent to reward specially gallant and
m%eritorious services. It recognizes both
length and special fitness of service
and it's authors claim that it's provisions
are SO guarded that only the most de.
serving shall receive special recognition
and in no case be the creatures Of per.
sonal or political intervention. The
bill gives the president control of the
tenure Of Office of the heads of staff
departments and he can, by and with
the advice and consent of the senate,
make a new head Of department at
any time, when, in his Judgment, the
efficiency Of the service would be in.
creased thereby.

IT LACKS POWER
Senate Committee Hears Inter.
state Commissioners Prouty
and Clements.
In Favor of the Bill to Give
the Commission More
Authority
In the Matter of Railroad Rates.
Law Constantly Being
Violated.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2l.-The senate
committee on interstate commerce
heard Commissioners Prouty and Glenn.
ents OF the Interstate commerce commits.
sion, in favor Of the bill to give the COM
mission more power in the matter of
railroad rates. The principal argument
was made by Mr.. Prouty. He said that
the commission vas now powerless. An
order Of the commission could be
blocked, and even if approved by the
courts, it would take three years to en-.
force it drought all the courts. The
order of the committee should be effec-
tive at once to accomplish anything.
He was questioned at some length by
different members of the committee. In
the course of his statement, he said that
grain was now being carried from Chi
cago east at less than the published
rates. The commission wanted power
to adjust rates when complaints were
made and found valid, and also author
ity to examine the books of the railroad
companies.

CLARK AGAIN TESTIFIES.

His Only Purpose in Entering Politics Wa
to Defeat DAILY.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-Senator Clark
Of Montana vas again the star witness
before the senate committee on privi-
leges and elections, Notwithstanding DIR.
Tracey vas also heard.
MI. Clark necessarily went over much
of the ground covered by him in his tes-
timony Saturday. He was cross-exam-
ined by Mr.. Campbell and insisted that
he had spent no money for corrupt pur-
poses during the Montana senatorial
campaign. He gave a detailed state
ment of expenditures for political pur-
poses during the legislative and senate
rial contests which footed up, as Senator
Turley announced, to $139, 1000. He de.
clared that his only purpose in entering
upon the campaign was the overthrow
of Mr. Daly's rule in the state, which,
he said, was SO tyrannical that he would
not desire to continue his residence in
the state if it was to continue.
Mr.. Campbell said during the day
that MIR. DAILY would go on the stand in
rebuttal. He is expected every day.
