REVRNGE FOR SANFORD,
New Story of the Assassination = Report
That Goebel Wore Armor.

FRANKFORT. Ky. Feb, Ex-senator Goehe'.
according 10 some folks here. was not shot
down by a political assassin but by a man who
sought TO avenge the death OF Col. John San
ford. whom Goebel FILLED In Covington in 1895.
Tonight since Goebel's death some Of San
ford's friends have openly boosted that his
killing was avenged. For nearly i've years the
friends OF Sanford have been determined to
square accounts with the man they consider q
murderer.
II was said here tonight that these friends Of
Sanford and others with them took advantage
Of the present exciting conditions In Kentucky
TO shoot down Goebel. believing that politics
would aid them in concealing their Identity.
Until tonight no one had suspected that any
thing other than politics was behind the shoot
Ing.
II is said. however. that men who had sworn
to Kill Goehel because Of the Sanford occur
renee were IN Frankfort on the day OF the
shooting, and suspicion Ia directed at them,
The names %! these mon are known, but what
evidence the authorities have against them Is
closely guarded.
Another story heard tonight ia that after
Goehel WAS shot n nd taken to the Capitol Hotel
II was discovered that he wore a coat OF mail.

White Bread
STARVES
MANY
PEOPLE
The Reasons are Told
Below

A piece of bread that is dry, white and
very light in weight seems to the thought
full person like so much foam or other
useless and non-nourishing product.
II one rolls a piece OF moist. light bread
or the interior of a biscuit between the
fingers, a ball Of dough is the result, with
IN appearance of solidity hat makes one
question how the gastric Juices of the
stomach can dissolve such a wad.
II is small wonder that such food Gre
ates havoc in the way OF fermentation and
gas, and consequent disorder.
Many dyspeptics will find great help by
leaving off the ordinary bread entirely,
and using in it's place Grape-Nuts, in
which the starchy and heterogeneous sub
stances have been thoroughly and per-
fectly cooked at the factory before being
sent out.
There is no possibility of tho food as
suming the form of wads of dough. On
the contrary. the food is already predi-
qested, the starch OF the grains has been
changed into grape sugar in the process
of manufacture and passes quickly and
directly into circulation.
ira pe-Nuts furnish the elements needed
by the system to rebuild, particularly the
soft gray matter in the brain and through
out the nerve centres in the body. This
new food. 1t is delicious enough to
recommend itself upon trial.
All first-class grocers sell Grape-Nuts
and the Postum Co. at Battle Creek, Mich,
make them.

The news from Goebels room was brought
down every few minutes by one Of his phy s-
clans. II began with tho announcement that
he hal had a second ~faintlng spell and that all
hope was gone. Then came word that a tank
OF oxygen had been brought In and was being
used; then that he was slowly recov-
ering. hut there was still no hope.
A each bulletin arrived there was the
greatest excitement. and many ordinations OF
sympathy we're heard. Sometimes some one In
the crowd would start to cry. During the
afternoon word came not less than twenty
times that the man could not live ten minutes.
but II was invariably succeeded by bulletins
that he had again recovered. The doctors said
each time that ne was growing constantly
weaker. Finally they said that liza might i've
until midnight. but not later. This was told 10
the crowd outside. and tn people there said
Goebel would fool the doctors again. The as-
surance that he might i've until midnight
seemed to satisfy them that he would live
longer. and many OF them went on about their
business.
There was "a comical side 10 the scenes OF
the afternoon, too. A man circulated through
the crowds distributing circulars describing a
new bullet proof armor. lie was the agent OF

orders. He got attention. too. There seemed
70 be nothing incongruous about his appear.
