WASHINGTON, Dec. Alt is said to
be definitely decided that President
Andrew An 1S, Carnegie Of $4,000 900 bonds of
the United States Steel Corporation for
the, purpose of founding an institution for
higher education in this city.
Inc views of prominent Senators and
representatives. as they have been given
to the President. are practically unani-
nous against the acceptance of the offer
IN its present shape. The provision at
tached to the offer that the Government
shall hold the bonds for a term of years
is ,rS, eonSidered especially Objectionable.
The President, however, is very hopeful
that an adjustment can be made by
which Carnegie will convert the bonds
which he rendered into cash or United
States bonds, and that the gift can then
be accepted in that shape.
NEW YORK, Dec. 14-Andrew Carne-
gle, on being asked about the $4,000 900
gift which he has offered to the Govern
ment for a national university, said:

GAS AND TROUBLE.
Comes From White Bread.

While It is true that we build I'D the
body from food. it Is also true that diff
1erent kinds Of food have different effects
on the body and produce different re-
suits.
For instance, it is absolutely impossible
TO live on white bread alone, for II con-
tains almost nothing but starch, and an
excess OF white bread produces gas and
trouble In the intestines, while, at the
same time, the other elements required
by the body for building up brain and
nerve centers, as well as muscular tissue
have been left out Of the white bread
and we see from experience the one try
ing to live on white bread alone gradually
fails in mental and nervous power as wal,
as loss In muscle.
Such a diet could not be kept I'D long
without fatal results. A lady in Jackson,
vile. Fla, was crippled by an accident
two years ago. Being without the mower
Of exercise, an old stomach trouble that
was hers for years became worse, and II
was serious question regarding food that
she could digest.

results. She says now that, not only is

Batueship Illinois Handles Herself
Finely on Her Builders
Trial Trip.

Newport News, Va, March 13.-On
her builders trial trip Tuesday the
battleship Illinois more than meas
ured up to expectations. The shipwas
not taken out to deep sea, but was
given a run down the coast, the main
object being to test her boilers. The
Illinois left here at six o'clock n. m,
having on board besides Superintend-
ent Post, of the Newport News Build
ing & Drydock company, Capt G.. A.
Converse, U. S. N, who is to command
her, and Lieutenant Commander Hen
derson, who will be on the executive
staff. After steaming out of the Vir-
ginia capes, the battleship proceeded
about 25 miles down the coast. On the
return under moderate forced
iraught, the ships indicator showed
her speed in a two-hour run to aver
age 16 2-10 knots an hour with 120 rev.
olutions. The contract requirements
call for 16 knots an hour with 120 rev.
olutions. No attempt was made at
speed, the vessels condition being eN-
tremely foul and the accumulation of
barnacles large. She has been in the
water for more than a year.

There was well attended meeting
of Oskaloosa spiritualists and those
of the citizens interested in the sub

to hear the lecture by Mrs. G.. w.
Kates, of Minneapolis. The inclement
weather of the evening cut the at

was large and appreciative audi
ence present. Miss Mccoy was call
ed upon during the evening and re-
sponded by giving number of tests.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ka es, Miss Eva Nc
Coy of Marshalltown, and Miss Alb
bic Seymour of Clinton, arrived in
the city Tuesday to conduct two
days. meeting They have been at
Topeka and other cities of the south
west and are enroute to their homes.
From this city they go to Mare hall
town, where a two days meeting
will be held.
Mrs. Hates addressed a meeting
for women only this wednesday,
afternoon, and there was large at
tendance. Mr.. Kates will lecture
this evening.
A business matter of the associa-
ton will be settled at this meeting.
That is the location of the annual
camp meeting of the organization of
this part of the state. Oskaloosa
stands ready to take the meeting if
Marshalltown cannot make elarrange

seems that Marshalltown cannot Of
fer the association any grounds and
Oskaloosa can do this easily.
Marshalltown was the birthplace
of the association and it is desired by
many that the permanent home of
the meeting be in that city. Sub
stantial aid and support have been
given by members there, but it seems
that the growth has been greater
and stronger in Oskaloosa, and as
greater advantages are to be had
here it is very probable that the an
