 ed by the Premier
SENDS WARSHIP FOR KRUGER

The Hague, September 20.-In the Upper Chamber of the States General, today, the minister of foreign affairs and Premier pr. w. H.

 Regarding the offer of a Netherlands war ship to convey MT. Kruger from Lorenzo Marques to Europe, Dr. DeBaufort said the Netherlands government made the proposi- tion when 1t learned that MT. Kruger de- sired to visit Europe for the benefit of his health.
 Simultaneously with making the offer, Dr. DeBaufort continued, the government of the Netherlands informed Great Britain of the action, and the latter in thanking the Netherlands for the information declared that that government had no intention of interfering with Krugers journey.
 Regarding China, the Premier declared the Dutch commander had been notified to abstain from all military action.

UTAH REPUBLICANS
 GIVEN GOOD SCARE Governor Left Affairs of State in
 Democratic Hands. U. s. SENATOR APPOINTED During Republican Governors Absence MT. Nebeker's Act May Require
 Official Action by Governor
 Wells When He Returns
U. s. SENATOR APPOINTED

Salt Lake, Utah, September 20.-Utah Re- publican officials and politicians had A scare when they found this morning that Governor Wells and Secretary of State Hammond had left the State administration in the hands of a Democrat Acting Cover nor by leaving the State to meet Governor Roosevelt at Pocatello, Idaho. Under the statutes Aquila Nebeker, president of the State Senate, became Acting Governor. When MT. Nebeker discovered last night that Wells and Hammond were both out of the State he appointed Judge o. W. Pow CTS United States Senator to fill the va cancy occasioned by failure to elect Sem ator at the last session of the Legislature. Mir Nebeker said today that he had not been officially notified that Governor Wells was in Utah and until so notified he would institute all the reforms that ought to be In force under Democratic administration. MT. Nebeker has taken no further official action, excepting to depose the chief of staff of the militia and make a new appointment.
 The action of MT. Nebeker may require some official action by Governor Wells when he reaches the city. A good many peo- pie look upon 1t as huge political joke.
 Judge Powers, when interviewed and asked whether his appointment as United States Senator by the Acting Governor was intended as huge political joke or was to be taken in seriousness, replied emphat- ica1ly that 1t was serious In every sense of the word, and calculated to teach the Governor and Secretary of State that they could not both leave the State of Utah at the same time without taking the conse- quences.
 "Whether shall be recognized by the United States Senate as the junior member from Utah, I cannot say" said Judge Pow CTS. However, I propose to make fight for the place and stand by my rights"
 Nothing has yet been heard from Gover- nor Wells.

MARAUDING BANDS
All That Is Left of the Boers, Says
 Roberts

London, September 20.-Lord Roberts ca- bles from Neilspriut on the Pretoria-Dela- goa Bay Railroad, not far from Komati- poort, the frontier station, under date of Wednesday, September 19, as follows:
 "Of the three thousand Boers who re- treated from Komatipoort before the Brit ish advance from Machadodorp 700 have en- tered Portugues territory; others have re- serted in various directions and the bal ance are reported to have crossed the Komati river and to be occupying spurs of the Lombobo mountain south of the rail- way.
 "A general tumult seems to have occur red when they recognized the helplessness of their cause. Their long Toms and field guns have been destroyed and nothing is left of the Boers but few marauding bands. Kelly-Kenny is dealing with one of these which occupies position at Doornberg."
 The War Office has issued a lengthy re- port from Lord Roberts on the subject of Johannesburg plot to overpower the gar rison and murder British officers and the deportation of foreigners. After reiterat- ing the known facts of the plot the British commander in chief in South Africa says:
 "Consuls of America, Germany, France and Sweden, subjects of the nations which were arrested met and fully discussed the case with the British officers. The inter view was most satisfactory. The consuls entirely concurred with the British action and promised every assistance"
 Lord Roberts added that he forthwith ordered the deportation of all foreigners arrested in connection with the plot for whose behavior their respective consuls could not vouch. Otherwise very few for eigners were reported except employees of the Netherlands Railway who refused to work for the British and actively parti- cipated in the war

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also Few Facts on the Same Subject.

Also a Few Facts on the Same Subject.
 We hear much nowadays about health foods and hygenic living, about vegetar- ianism and many other fads along the same line.
 Restaurants may be found in the larger cities where no meat, pastry or coffee is served and the food crank is in his glory, and arguments and theories galore ad- vanced to prove that meat was never in- tended for human stomachs and almost make us believe that our sturdy ancestors who lived four score years in robust health on roast beef pork and mutton must have been grossly ignorant of the laws of health.
 Our forefathers had other things to do than formulate theories about the food they ate. warm welcome was extended to any kind from bacon to acorns.
 A healthy appetite and common sense are excellent guides to follow in matters of diet, and a mixed diet of grains, fruits and meats Is undoubtedly the best
 As compared with grains and vegeta- bles meat furnishes the most nutrim in a highly concentrated form and Is di- gested and is assimilated more quickly than vegetables and grains.
 Dr. Julius Remmson this subject says: Nervous persons people run down in health and of low vitality should eat meat and plenty of it. If the digestion Is too feeble at first it may be easily cor rected by the regular use of Stuart's Dys-
 
 these excellent tablets taken after dinner will digest several thousand grains es meat eggs or other animal food in three hours, and no matter how weak the stom- ach may be, no trouble will be experienced if regular practice Is made of using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, because they supply the pepsin and diastase necessary to perfect digestion, and every form of in- digestion will be overcome by their use.
 That large class of people who come under the head of nervous dyspeptics should eat plenty of meat and insure its proper digestion by the daily of a safe, harmless digestive medicine like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, composed of the nat ural digestive principles pepsin, diastase, fruit acids and salts which actually per- form the work of digestion. Cheap cathartio medicines, masquerading under the name of dyspepsia cures are useless for indigestion as they have absolutely no effect upon the actual digestion of food.
 Dyspepsia in all It's many forms is simply a failure of the stomach to digest food and the sensible way to solve the riddle and cure the dyspesia is to make daily use at meal time of a preparation like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which is endorsed by the medical profession and known to con- tain active digestive principles.
 All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab- lets at 50c, for full treatment.

O-I-C

When a preparation has an advertised reputation that is worldwide, 1t means that preparation is meritorious. If you go into d store to buy an article that has achieved universal popularity like Cascarets Candy Cathartio for example, you feel it has the endorsement of the world. The judgment of the people Is infallible because 1t is impersonal. The retailer who wants to sell you something else' in place of the article you ask for has an ax to grind. Don't 1t stand to reason? He's trying to sell something that is not what he repre- sents 1t to be. Why? Because he expects to derive an extra profit out of your credulity. Are you easy? Don't you see through his little game? The man who will try and sell you a substitute for CAS- CARPETS is fraud. Beware of him! He is trying to steal the honestly earned benefits of a reputation which another busi- ness man has paid for; and if his conscience will allow him to go so far, he will go farther If he cheats his customer in one way, he will in another and it Is not safe to do business with him. Beware of the CASCARET substitutor! Remember CAS- CARPETS are never sold in bulk, but in metal boxes with the long-tailed "C" on every box and each tablet stamped c. c. c.
