THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also a Few Facts on the Same Sub
iect.

We hear much nowadays about health
foods and hygienic living. about veg
etarianism and many other fads along
the same line
Restaurants may be found in the large
cities where no meat, pastry or coffee is
served and the food crank IS in his glory,
and arguments and theories galore ad-
yanced to prove that meat was never
intended for human stomachs, and all
most 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 lgnor-
ant of the laws of health
Our forefathers had other things to
do than formulate theories about the
extended to any kind from bacon TO
acorns.
A healthy appetite and common sense
are excellent guides to follow in matters
fruits land meats IS undoubtedly the
best
AS compared with grains and vegeta-
bles, meat furnishes the most nutriment
in a highly concentrated form and is
digeSted and assimilated more quickly
than vegetables and grains
DR.. julius Remmson on 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
corrected by the regular use Of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal Two
of these excellent tablets taken after
dinner will digest several thousand
grains Of meat, eggs or other animal
food in three hours, and no matter how
weak the stomach may be, no trouble
will be experienced II a regular practice
is made Of using Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets because they supply the pepsin
and diastase necessary to perfect diges-
ton. and every form Of indigestion viii
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 use of a
safe harmless digestive medicine like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets composed of
the natural digestive principles. pepsin,
diastase, fruit acids, and salts, which
actually perform the work of digestion.
Cheap cathartIc medicines, masquerad-
ing 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 its many forms IS
simply a failure Of the stomach to digest
food and the sensible way to solve the
riddle and cure the dyspepsia 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 contain active digestive
principles.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at soc for full treatment.

NO COPPER TRADE WAR
Significance of the Fall Dur
 ing the Week
Said to Be an Incident of an Agree ment Between the Rothschilds and the Amalgamated Copper Company.

New York, Dec. 20.-Interest in the copper situation both as regards the product generally and the stock Of the Amalgamated Copper company some what abated today, although the price of the stock rose from 657s the day be- fore. closing at 66i4.
 The further cut of hc. pound in the price of the product by the Amal- gamated Copper company yesterday. to 121sc. per pound for electrolytic only excited the faintest interest and the stories of the cut meaning the inaug uration of war of prices with the Rothschil6s ORio Tinto) that would be the greatest trade war the world had ever seen was ridiculed in prominent copper circles as well as in the trade generally, where the conditions arc understood. In fact the opinion Of those best competent to judge. the reverse is just the case. and that the 'cut"simply means the Amalgamated company is carrying out a gentlemans agreement with the Rothschilds as to policies and territory. This view of the case. too. agrees with the statements of some or those on the inside re- gently contradictins stories of ap- breaches having been made recently by the Amalgamated company to tine Rothschilds for that purpose and that the latter had declined to enter Into any such agreement.
 It was also said today on the same authority that the indications were that the difficulties Of the AIualga- mated company with the Heintzes over the Calumet and Hecla mines had been really settled. The Lawson dis pute over stock was said to be merely an incident that was being made use of for purposes of stock speculation, in which MT. Lawson might or might not come out a winner. Many think that Mir. Lawson still holds his 10000 shares of copper stock.
 The Amalsamated Copper company. it was said. would sell more copper at the lower prime made yesterday than at the higher figure. and the cut would result in stopping some irritating com petition. and also prevent the floa ting of more copper companies: and that. therefore. the cut was undoubtedly made for legitimate purposes.
 The absurdity of the cut having been made for the purpose of frighten- ing the Rothschilds should. 1t was said, be apparent to the most com mon intelligence when it was remem- bered that the same interests that are in Amalgamated Copper (Standard Oil company are working in harmony with the Rothschilds in the oil busi- ness as to territory. prices, etc.

WORD FOR THE CHINESE
Boston Protest Against Re. e.enactment
 of Exclusion law.

Boston. Dec. 20.-Wiliiam Lloyd Gar rison presided over a meeting in Broomfield Street Methodist Episcopal church at which resolutions were adopted against the re-enactment of the Chinese exclusion act. Besides Gar rison, Rev. MT. Jonnson of San Fran cisco. Tong Hay. a Chinese clergyman or this city, and others spoke. In the course Of his address Mir. Garrison said: We are here as Americans to protest against America's injustice in dealing with sister nation. We cannot forget our ancestors themselves were immi- grants with no prescriptive rights to enter this country.
 The sweeping objection to the Chi nese is that they cannot assimilate with Americans; they earn money here and send it back to China: their manner of living is inexpensive and they are small consumers: they huddle together in great numbers; crime and unchastity abound with them: in short, their in- huence is corrupting and they must go.
 The question of civic corruption is too large to consider in this connection. It is notorious that United States offi- cials find heavy revenues in their con nivance at smuggling Chinese immi. grants across the borders. The higher the bars put up, the greater the price or assistance. My own conviction is that few Chinamen are really kept out by our stringent laws"

MIR. HANNA's VIEW
He Does Not Believe That as Result of the Late New York Conference That Strikes Will Be Wholly - Averted but the Disastrous Effect of Them Will Be Minimized by Cancellation.

Washington. Dec. 2O.- Senator Hanna, chairman of the committee of thirty-six. appointed at the capital labor conference in New York. was at the White House today. and talked most earnestly of the results of the conference.
 II consider the conference" said he- "the greatest step ever taken for the speedy settlement of the disputes aris- ing between labor and capital. The or ganization of labor. which has come to stay, was an evolution which was nat- urally preceded by the organization of capital, which has also come to stay. and a concentration of the interests of the two sides into the hands of ccm- paratively few individuals will make fer the best interests of both
 People must not get the idea that we are to recognize everything relating to the conditions of labor and capital. or that the joint committee is to under take arbitration by compulsion- In fact, we are opposed to compulsory ar bitratioa. We believe we can accom- plish much by getting into closer touch and contact with labor. The first step will be to establish relationship be- tween the two interests, and this will serve as a foundation tc work on- While we do not expect that there will be no strikes, they will be minimized as a result of a conciliation and ar bitration policy

THE TUCSON RACES
Crescsus Made Good Time-Jim the
 Tramp in Disgiuse.

Dr. J. C. Norton. territorial veter marian, returned yesterday from a trip to Yuma and Tucson on professional business. At Yuma he inspected and admitted 200 Of the finest Hereford ani shorthorn bulls ever imported for range use. They came from the ranches Of the Kern County Land and Cattle com pany and will be placed on the range of the Boquillas Land and Cattle com pany.
 At Tucson the doctor was just in time to witness the exhibition work of Cresceus. who holds the worlds trottin;; record. and who. with other horses be- ing handled by the owner. Mr Ketcham. are en route east and stopped over in Tucson for day to Timber up their jcints.
 The visit of Cresceus to Tucson has been widely advertised and there was big crowd of people at the race track to witness his performance: a crowd very much smaller than many the famous horse has seen. but proportion ately as enthusiastic as any Cresceus made his exhibition mile in Tucson in 2:14. which is nearly twelve seconds be- hind his own record, but it was admit ted that the track. being very dusty and soft! was at least ten seconds slow. and still more to his handicap. it was a half mile track. The grandstand was therefore well pleased with the exhibi- ticn and particularly grateful to Mir. Ketchan. who exercised the horse freely in front of the grandstand for it's inspection.
 Cresceus was paced by Jim tho Tramp q running horse owned by MT. Ketcham. and who has to run. tco. to keep in the lead. Jim is about 20 years old. but he is enjoying green old age and is still pretty clever with his heels.
 There were three races beside the ex- hibition trot. In one of them were en- tered Sunday, owned by Roadmaster Duncan of the s. P. and Mamie Lee. owned by W. M. Breckenridge. Sunday won the race in 1:03 for half mile, which is pretty good country travelling.
 In the other. the gentleman's drivin-; race. Dr. Purcell's horse, Eldoretta. driven by Mir. Barclay. won. Judge Cookers Rysdyck stallion was a close second.
 The third race was a free-for-all cow boy running race. and interest was added to the even by Mir. Ketcham. who turned Jim the Tramp over to one of his men and told him to sneak in, and he did SO. Jim. of course, cleaned out the cowboys as 1t is in his line of busi- ness to lead. But the joke of it all was that with his cowboy saddle on he was not recognized by the other contestants till the race was over. Another foxy play was in his method of entry. At the first start Jim had not yet put in an appearance. It was a bad start and the man with the bell called the horses back. but they were not used to spar ring for position and kept on around the track. imagining that the race was on. When the next start was made Jim was in position. fresh as new mown hay and ready to sprint.
 Mir. Ketcham will have his horses in Albuquerque Christmas.

TRANS CONFIDENTIAL WAY
Denver to Be Placed on Highway Be-
 tween Oceans.

Denver. Dec. 20.-According to the News, Denver is to be placed directely on the route of a transcontinental rail road. The Denever X Southwestern and the Colorado & Southern Railroad companies have entered into a compact by which the much discussed South Park cutoff is to be constructed. giving Denver a direct route to Grand June tion. From that point it is intended, if satisfactory arrangements cannot be made with George Gould relative to traffic arrangements from Grand June tion to Salt Lake City, to build an in dependent road.
 Arrangements have been made with Senator Clark. MT Kerens and others interested in the new Salt Lake & Los Angeles road which will insure direct railroad connection with the Pacific coast.
 The project is one of the most gigantic railroad schemes evolved in the west since the construction of the first overland roads.

NOT THE ENGINEER
But the Engine to Blame for the Up
 lands Wreck.

San Francisco, Dec. 20.-Engineer Coffey, who is generally held to blame for the Southern Pacific wreck at Up lands. made a statement today, in which he declared he never acknowl- edged forgetting his orders; that as a matter of fact he did not forget orders. but that he was unable to control his engine, which he said did not regularly belong to his division. that being his first trip on it. Coffey said the engine was an old one, recently from the Tucson division. and that the injector failed to work properly: that he had already applied the air brakes when the conductor signalled him to stop.
 Two section hands. victims of the wreck died this morning at the South ern Pacific hospital. making total of four dead.
 Tomorrow at Superintendent Worth ingtons office at Third and Townsend streets. all the men employed on the wrecked trains will be called to testify in an official examination. It is be- lieved that Engineer Coffey will be able to be on hand. and then he will be made to give answers to the official head of the coast division. The blame for the accident is generally placed to the disobedience of orders by Codey-
