Chicago, ILL.,. March 2O.-The Chicago

struggle in the German Reichstag over
the meat bill Three of them expressed
themselves on the subject
''The passing of the law in it's present
form " said one packer, would restrict
our exports to Germany. Under the
terms of the bill, lard, hams and bacon,
which may be inspected easily, would
not be affected much. But canned meats
and sausages, which can not be inspect
ed without being destroyed, would be
excluded. This would reduce our ex-
ports of meat products to Germany 40
to SO per cent
Germany would be injured by the
AMI that country would find that there
would be retaliation on some of it's pro-
ducts"
There is no question in regard to the
injurious effects of the BILL said an
other. ct practically would exclude all
our canned meats and SauSageS from
Germany, where we have had a, fairly
good market for those products. But
the question is not yet decided and I
do not believe that the bill in its pres
ent form will become a law"
1.-The passing of the bill would be
just as bad for Germany as it would be
for this country said a third packer.

TRIED TO TURN HIS HEAD.
Chicago Lavishes Attention Upon
Eugene T. Ware.

The following with reference to the
recent visit of Eugene F. " are to chi
cago appeared in the Times-Herald:
"Ironquin" of Kansas said: I never
sign my name to my verse. You know
it hurts a lawyer to have it commonly
said that he beat his wife or writes
poetry, or does other things outside the
pale of custom"
That was his modest way of estimat-
ing his poetry as he spoke privately last
evening, after leaving the platform at
Hampden Hall, where he had peen the
central figure of all eyes and thoughts,
while the members of the Oakland Gull
ture club had been celebrating an IRON
quill" night. He had been praised Till
mis- face was red with bushes, and APP
DIauded till he vowed he would not nave
come had he known what was in store,
and despite it all he spoke in that mild,
sighting, half humorous, half pathetic
way of the poetry, which everyone VINO
saw him knew meant vastly more TO
him as man than any successes he
has ever had as a lawyer.
'Ironquill" of Kansas is known to
most of the cursOry readers of the day
for that wonderful ditty, "Oh, Dewey
was the morning." but he will be better
known in the future to those VINO met
him last night as the man who wrote;
The soul doth sometimes seem to be
In sunshine which it can not see.
H will be known to them also as Eu-
gene T. Ware, lawyer, name winch
few Of them had heard before, and
which only George r. Peck, his old-tlme
Kansas friend, who introduced him.
used.
He brought to the club in his verse
q vigorous breath of Kansas air, rough
and pungent, but in no way conflicting
with his kindly bearing and kindly SEN
timents Slightly above the ordinary
height, with gray hair and mustache
and large dark eyes, he leaned forward
during his brief talk-his subject was
body sway in a way that was thorough
~ western, yet not without cnarm his
face was the face of a man who makes
his meat and drink fresh air, fragrance
and music his goods but not his gods;
On the souvenir programme OF the
evening he was described as the KAN
sas poet who became the nations poet,
and Mr. Peck did not hesitate to say OF
him, that though America had more
pretentious poets, it had none breathing
more of the true spirit of poetry.
The evening was given to the singing
and reciting of his poems from his
John Brown" and his "Quivera" to
THE Washerwoman's Song" and THE
Whisperer." Mr.. Peck read that latter
poetieal gem about the man who took
the voter to the rear. and gently Whis-
pered in his ear" while MAJOR Clancy
recited the John Brown"
In his own talk "Ironquill" described
in light vein some of his adventures in
Mexico, and advanced in serious vein
a hypothesis that the Indians were not
immigrants from Asia, but that the
Japanese were simply adventurous
Americans who wandered to Japan and
developed there a civilization not so far
remote from old American Indian
civilization.

A MOUNTAIN MOVES.
A Territory of Sixty Acres Dis
placed by a California
EarthQuake.

Chicago. March 2O.-A special to the
Recol from San Jacinto, Cal, says:
Great excitement prevails in San ia
cinto. as it has been discovered that
part of San Jacinto mountain has slip
ped into a subterranean cavern. A ter
ritory covering sixty acres, at an ele-
walton of four thousand feet, was dis
lodged by the recent earthquake and
had slipped $50 feet lower than it had
previously stood for centuries.
The face of the new valley is thickly
traversed with assures and cracks
varying in width from an inch to six
feet across and it is possible to see
neither bottom nor to sound the depths
by throwing stones into them. A young
man was lowered forty feet in the crew

by the venturesome youth. Sunday

eleven miles to the southeastern foot
of this great spur of San Jacinto park.

terrible devastation.

although these are becoming infrequent,
residents are much alarmed.

next legislature, so that if the amend
ment to the constitution providing for
the enlargement of the supreme court
fails to carry, the legislature can con-
tinue the court of appeals indefinitely.
Through some mistake, however, the
law extending the court of appeals over
the coming legislature was never pass
ed, so that the court will go out of ex-
istence next January.
The legislature did pass a law, how
ever, allowing the judges of each de-
partment to transfer cases from one
division to another in order to equalize
the work.
In accordance with the provisions of
this law the judges of the northern de-
partment have transferred Al cases
from the docket of the eastern division
to the central and western divisions. OF
this number 20 went to the central
division and II to the western.
This will allow every case which is at
present on the docket of the eastern
division to be heard at the June term.
All cases which are filed during the
coming summer will be heard at the
September term, so that the only ones
to be certified back to the supreme
court when the court goes out of exist
ence will be those that are filed after
September 10, and these win probably
be few in number.
The cases on the docket of the cens
trail division will be heard at Concordia
in May and October, While those on the
docket of the western division will be
heard at Colby in September. By MAX
ing this division it is expected that the
business of the northern department
will be practically cleaned up when the
court goes out of existence next Jan
uary.
The lawyers of the state generally
hope that the proposition to increase the
number of supreme court judges to
seven will carry, as they claim it will
be much cheaper for the state to main
tain such a court of final resort
than it is to maintain a supreme court
and six courts of appeals. 1t will also
be of greater convenience to attorneys
and will lessen litigation, because I'M
der the present system many of the
cases which are decided by the court of
appeals are taken into the supreme

DAVIS STICKS TO IT.

Washington, March 20. - Senator

serf.te committee on foreign relations
and in charge of the French reciprocity

standing the purpose to extend the time
for the exchange of ratifications, he
proposes to do all he can to obtain rati-

The senator is preparing a careful

Quit Drug Coffee and Uses Postum
Food Coffee.

while on a visit to a relative in New
Hampshire, who runs d fruit farm, I
found on the supper table what ap-
peared to be a strong cup of coffee. 1
usually drank tea at night and they
knew it, but asked me to try the coffee,
saying it was Postum Food Coffee, and
the reason they served it was that they
found when they got up early in the
summer mornings and drank a cup Of
coffee to brace up on, they generally
had a headache or sick stomach
along about noon, and that their grocer
persuaded them sometime before my
visit to try Postum Food Coffee After
a weeks trial they adopted it for the
family, and had never returned to the
ordinary coffee, saying that it had
worked a wonderful change in all of
them-no more sick headaches, no more
sick stOmaches
For two weeks used Postum, and
when I returned to Boston, I banished
tea and coffee from the table forever
My complexion has made a decided
change for the better, and it goes with
out saying that I feel greatly benefited
My nights are not sleepless now. as
they were when I was a coffee drinker. -
