FRANK DUNCAN WILL
BE ARRAIGNED TODAY

now to be tried for murder of Officer
Kirkley and he may be found guilty and
sentenced to be hung. An unusual fea-
ture of the case is that he Is already un>
der life sentence and If convicted again
and again sentenced to life imprisonment
this will practically be no additional pun
ishment for the second offense.
A similar case to this was that Of
Alonzo Williams, the negro who was hung
at the same time as was Frank Miller.
Williams had killed man, was convicted
and was serving a life sentence In the
mines. While there he killed another
convict and on his trial for this second
murder the question came up that If he
was TO be punished for 1t he must be
hung. The judge charged the jury to this
effect and the jury found him guilty and
his punishment was ffxed at death

KNOWLEDGE OF FOOD.
Proper Selection of Great Importance
In Summer.

The feeding of infants is a very serious
proposition, as all mothers know. Food
must be used that will easily digest, or
the undigested parts will be thrown into
the intestines and cause sickness.
1t is important to know that a food can
be obtained that is always safe; that Is
Grape-Nuts.
mother writes: MY baby took the
first premium at a baby show on the Sth
inst, and is In every way a prize baby.
] have fed him on Grape Nuts since he
was five months old. l also use your
Postum Food Coffee for myself" Mrs
l.. F.. Fishback, Alvin, Tex.
Grape-Nuts food Is not made solely for
n baby food by any means, but is manu-
featured for all human beings who have
trihing, or serious, difficulties In the
stomach and bowels
One especial point of value is that the
food Is predigested in the process of
manufacture, not by any drugs or chemi-
calls whatsoever, but simply by the action
of heat, moisture and time, which per-
:. mits the diastase to grow, and change the
starch into grape-sugar. This presents
food to the system ready for immediate
assimilation.
Its especial value as food, beyond the
fact that it is easily digested, Is that IL
supplies the needed elements to quickly
rebuild the cells In the brain and nerve
centers throughout the body.

Common Sense Should be Above Con
 ventionality in This Weather.
 The warm weather is still with us, and as a result many are confined to their homes and will not be able to do much celebrating during the com ing Fourth. It is said that it Will be cooler tomorrow, but we have heard this kind of talk before without any apparent change in the thermometer, except, perhaps, an upward tendency, so it is not likely that people will take much stock in what the prophets say on this subject until they see and feel proof of it. Among those who have received slight touches of the heat are Terrence Downey of East Main, A. H. Mills of Hillside avenue, Engineer Clark of the Consolidated road, Eu- gene Harrington of Baldwin street, and others.
 Some of the business and prOfeS- sional men about town are inaugurat- ing a custom which it is hoped will be kept up until it becomes such com mon thing that no one will notice it. They are attending to business minus coats and white collars. The absence of these articles of wearing apparel renders life much pleaSanter in this kind of weather than it is possible to be with them on and it is 9 pity that the custom is not indulged in by a larger number of people. In addition to divesting themselves of coats, vests, cuffs and collars, many carry umbrel- las so that the extreme heat does not bother them to any great extent. While no one cares to be considered unconventional ill the matter of street costume, still it would seem that any thing people can do at this season with a view to keeping cool should be resorted to, that is, so long as public decency is not ignored. Why should anybody find fault with a man who goes about his business on a day like this in his shirt sleeves? Probably no one would but the fear of wounding the feelings of some stickler for eti- qGette is so great in the minds of most people that they prefer to wear their coats and siZzle rather than throw them off and be cool and run chances of being called rude.
 Here's success to the shirtwaist man. provided he does not insist upon strict adherence to a regulation style.

that the Seaboard might soon extend
the schedule of the "shoofy" train,
