nunciations of the chairmans arbitrary

ioy the storm which the chairman'S
course had raised. Mr.. Talbert rapidly
cooled down after he had been recog-
nized and explained in a brief speech
that the presence of a quorum had
completely indicated his position. He
had no feeling against the men who
served on the federal side in the civil
war, but he was opposed to loose, reck-

M'CLlNTOCK DISCOVERS.
Says Personal Property Taxes Have
Been Collected and Not
Accounted For.

". S. McClintocl1, to whom the coun-
ty- commissioners gave the job to col
lecting delinquent personal taxes on
commission, claims to have made a
discovery He has run across a num-
Der of people who are marked de-
linquent on the country treasurer's
books who hold receipts for the taxes
on which they are marked delinquent.
The most of the receipts of this kind
which have been unearthed thus far
are said to be signed by Fred H. Miller,
who was a deputy under Sheriff R. B.
Kepley, but there are Others" 1t is
probable that the discrepancies are the
result of a loose method Of making the
collections. Some of the delinquencieS
date back ten years. When the collec-
lions were made the money was often
turned over to the county treasurer
without itemizing the collections, and
this is probably responsible for credit
not having been given where due. The
matter will be investigated by the
county commissioners.

NEW BAKING POWDER Law
Declared Unconstitutional by q St.
Paul Judge.

st. Paul, Mimi. Feb. 10-A very i'm
portant and far-reaching decision was
rendered by Judge Lochren today. The
case was that of Frank A. Dix, as agent
of a brand of baking powder, who had
been convicted in the municipal court for
the violation of the new baking powder
law of 1899. The case was taken to the
United Stteas circuit court on a petit
ton for a writ of habeas corpus Judge
Lochren decided that the act could not
be regarded as an inspection measure,
was an unreasonable exercise of the po-
lice power and if other state legislatures
should adopt measures of a similar
kind 1t would amount to a burdensome
restriction of commerce between the
states and prohibition of such COM
merce and therefore the law was I'M
constitutional in either aspect.

MEETING PLACE
Where Men Can Talk and Enjoy q
Good Cigar.

Geo. Burghart, the popular and well
known cigar manufacturer of Topeka,
has struck a note of popular favor with
the young men of the city, by fixing
up in a very artistic manner, the room
to the rear of his cigar store at the
corner of Eighth street and Kansas av-
enue, to be used as a smoking room,
and a place where the men can meet
their friends either to talk over bust
ness, or else to spend an evening in the
social enjoyment of good cigar.
Mr.. Burghart has long had this idea
in his mind. and with his increasing
trade, was on the lookout for suitable
quarters which could be used for the
place of manufacturing the different
brands of his choice cigars. With the
securing of the room. at No. Ill East
Eighth street, he Immediately moved
his mandatory there and found the
opportunity of carrying out his idea of
fitting up a smoking room which has
met with such unanimous favor with
the public. Mr.. Burghart's new enter
prise will make his store more popular
than ever

The DEAFNESS of Butter.

One of the most eminent authorities
on consumption, DR.. Hughes Bennett of
London, made the remark that t@The
dearness of butter and the abundance
of pastry cooks" 1t is evident from
this that the doctor believed that the
poor and underfed are unable to obtain
sufficient fat, while the digestion of the
wealthy class is upset by their rich pas
tries so that they do not assimilate the
proper amount of fat. In either case
is a question of fat. We must have
fat in some form cheap enough for the
poor and easy enough for the enfeebled
digestion of the rich. Cod liver oil in
its crude condition is both too difficult
and too unpleasant for any one, but in
the form of Scott's Emulsion as manu-
featured by Scott & Bovine, it is not
only easy to digest, and pleasant to
take, but acts as a medicine in puri-
flying the blood, as well as the very best
kind of fat forming food.

For war is the surest way for this ma

opinion of the wisest statesmen. 1t is
equally true that to be prepared for

a lesson multitudes are learning, and
at this time, when the blood is sure to
be loaded with impurities and to be
weak and sluggish, the millions begin

Observation-Disclosures

Rev. S. V. Robinson, Brooklyn Hills,
N. Y, says: "A few days ago an Incl
dent occurred in my home that may in
terest you. Our baby boy, a fine speci-
men of two years and three months old
babyhood, was brought downstairs i'm
mediately after he awoke. He was
teething, and had eaten but little for
two or three days, and had to be coaxed
to do that. On this particular morning
his first request was for Grape-NutS,
of which he is very fond. His mother
had some cornmeal muSh cooked, and
served him with that instead, but after
pushed it away Indignantly, saying, I
don't want that; / want Grape-Nuts.
He would not be satisfied until Grape
Nuts We're served to him, which he ate
with evident enjoyment. We We're in
terested in his discrimination. and you
will doubtless appreciate the boys

Probably no food in existence-not
even excepting the very best prepared
baby foods-is as well adapted to the
use of infants as Grape-Nuts, well
soaked, The food is made up in gran
ular form, and for children should be
soaked a few minutes in hot water,
when it becomes a mush, and should be
treated with cream and sugar

building the bones and the gray mat

adult fed on Grape-Nuts will show

have been in use, and taking up Grape

GEO. GAYDEN ARRESTED.
Charge of Horse Stealing Which APP
pears to Be Unfounded.

George Gayden stepped into the police
station yesterday to make some in
quiries about Wesley Mclaughlin and
before he could state his business he
was arrested on the charge of horse
stealing.
The complaint was sworn to by Nc
Laughlin who is serving out a three
days sentence for being drunk Before
he got drunk. he swore out the COM
plant charging Gayden with stealing
his horses. A short time after swearing
to the complaint he decided to drown
his sorrow in that sweet oblivion
drink His sorrows went under three
times and then the police locked him
up. He had left his team with Gay
den, so the story goes, and Gayden did
not like the idea of feeding the horses.
He started out to find the missing own
er. He heard he was in jail and went
there to see if he could secure his re-
lease. AS a result he had to put up a
bond of $40 cash for his appearance to
answer to the charge made against
him.

THOSE CANAL DEFENSES.
Discussion Promises to Become Long
Drawn Out and Tiresome.

New York, Feb, 1O-A special to the
Times from Washington says:
While there are some officers of the
army and the navy who are disposed to
regard the conditions of the Hay
Pauncefote treaty as Objectionable be-
cause they take away from the United
States the military control of the pro-
posed canal across the iSthmuS, not ali
of them are willing to assent to the
suggestion that failure to assume mill
tary control will endanger the east or
west coasts Of the United States in case
of war.
A prominent officer of the war de-
partment, speaking of the suggestion,
said:
1T seems to me that this is all bosh-
Our western coasts are not altogether
defenseleSs. During and after the war
period great progress was made with
the fertilization plan laid out for the
cities most in need of defense. 1t is in
admissible to go into particulars, but I
venture to say that no ship or fleet of
ships would venture within range of the
port of San Francisco without expect
ing a warm reception. The plans which
have made New York difficult to ap-
proach from the sea have been carried
out to protect San Francisco and other
points, so that even an unobStructed
hostile fleet would be sure of a hot re-
eeption at any Of the large. ports. But
the navy would have something to say
before the ships could reach port
A very earnest and active promoter
of naval extension said of the criticisms
that might result if continued, in re-
lection of the Nicaragua treaty on the
ground of danger to the coasts of the
United States:
why talk of danger to the west coast
when, with a canal, the United States
having the navy we expect to have be-
fore the canal is completed, could quickly
transfer the bulk of It's fleet to the coast

WELDED A POKER.
Crazy Man Clears Out a Smallpox
Hospital

Denver, Colo. Feb. 1O.-A nurse from
the city smallpox hospital on Sand
Creek, about eight miles northeast of
the city, came to police headquarters
and reported that yesterday afternoon
Frank Conkling. an attendant while
crazed with drink, attacked the other

COnkling.
