HARD TO BREAK.
But the Coffee Habit Can Be Put Of

q was coffee user from early childhood, but it finally made me nervous that spent a great many sleepless nights, start ing at every sound I heard and suffering with a continual dull headache. My hands trembled, and I was also troubled with shortness of breath and palpitation of the heart. The whole system showed poisoned condition, and I was told to leave off cof- fee, for that was the cause of it. I was unable to break myself of the habit until some one induced me to try Postum Food Coffee.
 ''The first trial the Food Coffee Nas flat and tasteless, and 1 thought 1t was horrid stuff but my friend urged :.e to t-y again and let it boil longer This time l had a. very delightful beverage, and have been enjoying 1t ever since, and am now in very greatly improved condition of health
 My brother is also using Postum instead of coffee, and friend of ours, Mf. w. who was a great coffee user, found himself growing more and more nervous and was troubled at times with dizzy spells His wife suffered with nausea and indigestion, also from coffee They left it off and have been using Postum Food Coffee for some time and are now in perfect condition of health" Grace c.

All of the men have been actively training for several weeks and 1t is ex- pected that some first-class sport will be put up Some of the best riders in and around the city are on the card, and as the prizes are worth running for, it would not be surprising to see the track record equal ed, if not lowered.

STILL RECRUITING FOR REGULAR ARMY Local Station in Charge of Lieu
 tenant Mitchell. C0LLEGE-BRED MEN APPLY Enlisting at the Rate of About Nine Per Month Many of the Applicants
 Are Rejected Standard
 is High
C0LLEGE-BRED MEN APPLY

At the United States army recruiting sta- tion in Twentieth street the work of en- listing men for the regular army progresses at the rate of about nine per month. Last month First Lieutenant Mitchell, the re- cruiting officer, accepted only four men, but this month the number will reach prob- ably eleven or twelve. The standard for enlisted men, morally and physically, is high, and many of those who apply for ex- animation are rejected
 The majority of those who are accepted have only a common school education, which is all in the intellectual line that Uncle Sam requires, but occasionally col lege bred men apply. Among the recruits recently accepted by Lieutenant Mitchell one was a graduate of the University of Kentucky and another was a young M. D. Probably both will strive for commissions.
 The Birmingham station is recruiting
 now altogether for service in the cavalry and artillery branches in the Philippines.
 Several men who called on the lieutenant early in the spring with view of enlist ing backed out when they learned that they were not to be sent across the Pacific. One of them held a $500 position which he was ready to give up in order to go as a soldier to Luzon. Prvates pay is only s13 per month during the first two years of enlistment. But a bright, faithful soldier is usually advanced in a few years to the rank of sergeant. His pay is not large then, but as his rations and clothing are furnished by the government, he can save all the money he receives if he chooses.

Obtsined support of Auburn for Conn
~ Attorneyship.
FsrzcrAL TO THE rnzss.s

Auburn, May e2.-One Of the bitterest
political fights In the history of the Re
publican party Of this city eliminated
this evening in the selection of delegates
TO the county convention. For weeks
determined effort has been made by some
of the members Of the party here to defeat
the denomination Of County Attorney
George f. McCann, who Is serving his
first term in that Office and by the usage
OF the party, is entitled to n renomina-
tion. The leader in the movement
against Mr.. McCann has been ex-County
Attorney II. W. Oakes, who Is himself a
candidate for judge of probate. Mr..
McCann's friends had announced that, II
delegation was selected favorable to
McCann, that IL would also support Mr..
Oakes, but, notwithstanding this, Mr..
oakes published an open letter declaring
that he thought Mr.. McCann was not a
suitable person to hold the office, princi-
pally on account Of the way he had helped
the alleged license system of enforcing
the prohibitory liquor law. A "long
caucus" was held lasting from four
O'Clock this afternoon to eight O'Clock
this evening. The hall was crowded and
great excitement at times prevailed. The
result was personal triumph for Mr..
McCann. His ticket, in u total vote Of

CHARGES AGAINST NEELY.
Substance of Two Criminal Changes
Received From Gen. Wood.

Washington, May 22.-The war depart
ment today received from Gen. Wood
at Havana, the substance Of two crimi-
nal charges to be preferred against Nicely
in connection with the Cuban postal
frauds. These were forwarded at once to
the department of justice. 1t was said
that the charges are merely specific
complaints of matters included in t he
general charge against the prisoners
but they are regarded as necessary fol
the prosecution of the extradition pro-
ceedings. The department of justice
telegraphed the charges TO District At
torney Burnett at New York. 1t is be-
lieved that the charges are two counts
specifying the illegal conversion of pub
lie moneys to the use of Neely. In that
case the charges might be prosecuted In
the United States and it may be that II
was the intention of the government
officers to provide against possible
failure of the effort to secure the ex-
tradition of Neely to Cuba. 1t is said
here that the charge upon which Neely
is now held in New York is of the very
slightest character, being nothing more,
according to report, than an allegation
that Neely brought misappropriat ed
money into the United States. Hence
there is necessity for Immediately
strengthening the case, not only with a
view to extradltion, but also because II
is desired to make sure there shall be
no miscarriag o jut'ce.

Lewiston, May 2s.-A very exciting
caucus was held by the Republicans
of this city from four O'Clock this after
noon until eight O'Clock this evening to
select delegates to the county conven-
tion. The most bitter part of the fight
was aimed against Sheriff George f.
Huskins whom many Republicans desire
to defeat for denomination. Sheriff Hus-
kins, finding that he was likely to be
defeated, pooled his issues with Hon.
F. NJ. Drew, who is candidate for re-
nomination for judge of probate, and W.
b. Skelton, who is one of three candi-
dates for the nomination for county at
| torney. The other ticket was in favor OF
Kendall Dresser for sheriff, II. W. Oakes
for judge of probate and X. W. Crockett
for county attorney. The friends of the
several candidates entered into the fight
in the same way they would attempt 10
carry a close election. During the four
hours the caucus was held teams were
employed hauling voters to the polls
and city hall was crowded with an ex-
cited noisy crowd of partisans. In some
of the wards voters were repeatedly chal-
lenged and the right Of men to vote who
have be en- Republicans for years was
questioned.
The so-called Callahan faction of the
party was split in two and some of them
were among the supporters of Huskins,
