We go about from one place to an
other in search of something we desire,
without success. and finally find it right
at home awaiting us. a mining engineer
out in Mansfield, Mo-. tells of his ex-
perlence with coffee.
He says. up to the year 1898 l had
always been accustomed to drinking
coffee with my breakfast each morning.
In the summer of that year | developed
a severe ease of nervous prostration and
took several courses of treatment for
IL in Toronto, Buffalo. and New York
city without obtaining any permanent
benefit.
"One of the most trying manifesto
tions of the malady was condition
of nervous excitement in which | found
myself every day during the forenoon. 1t
never occurred to me 10 attribute this

OF yours last fall describing a case sim
liar to my own which had received bene-
fit from the use of Postum Cereal Food
Coffee. | at once changed my break
fast beverage from Java and Mocha to
Postum and the effect was nothing short
of marvellous. After using 1t less than
a week 1 was free from morning attacks
and in six months all my nervous symp-
toms had disappeared.
II have demonstrated the fact that by
following your directions In making Pos
tum Food Coffee anyone can obtain as
rich cup of coffee from Postum. as
from any of the imported brands, anj
may rest assured that they will escape
the injurious effects of coffee and expert
ence much benefit from the use Of Pos

Mr.. Gage Speaks.
Ex-Secretary Gage, under whose ad-

lector Stranahan said, gave historical
address interspersed with sentiment,
built around the erection of the new
custom house on the site where hun
dred years ago and more the Govern

been both a custom house and the office
of the President. After the presentation

remain On strike until they win This is
by the order of President Mitchell last
night.
From advices received at headquarters
here tonight not one local will neglect
this. The resolutions are to be sent to
headquarters here, and it is understood
that President Mitchell will then issue
statement based upon them. 1t will
virtually be reply to President Roose-
velt's request for the strikers return
to work, and will show him that they
are determined to remain on strike I'M
til they win.
Until that statement is ready to be
issued it is believed President Mitchell
made to him by Carroll d. Wright, Com
missioner of Labor, yesterday in behalf
of President Roosevelt. Some of the To-
Gals, in their eagerness, met today and
passed resolutions affirming their loyal

of the 1000 troops of the First and Scr7
ond brigades into the region will serTe
to strengthen their ranks, while the op-
orators are arranging to resume work at
several of the collieries.
Nothing will be done until the troops
are in the region, and. according to the
suggested plan of the operators, adopted
by General Miller, the soldiers will be
placed on guard at each colliery or
washery where work is being done. This
will not allow the various regiments to
be gathered in large camps, and some
regiments will probably be split into
three battalions. which will guard dis
tricts where the mines are widely scat
tered.
The strikers declare that If, after
four weeks, the operators prove they
cannot mine coal with the troops guard
ing the men who want to work, it will
be time for them to realize that they
can never win the strike.
School Strike Ended.

three weeks without a strike of the
school children in some part of the coal
region, and the school officials believe
it is due to the new plan of the boards
in the large towns of suspending the
strikers, and threatening their parents
with the enforcement sof the compulsory
education act. The school directors
throughout the region think there will
now be no further trouble
The operators made no effort today
to open new workings, their plan being
to wait until the troops arrive. They
are now collecting what men they can,
and today repors an increase in the num-
Der of applications. When the soldiers
arrive they expect there will be large
increase in the number of applications
for work.

NO WORD AT WHITE
HOUSE FROM MITCHELL
Not Believed Likely Miners Will Re-
turn to Work at Request
of President.

The President has received as yet no
word from President Mitchell in re-
sponse to the proposition made to the
latter by Mr.. Roosevelt in his continued
efforts to hasten settlement of the coal
strike. At late hour last night this
statement was officially made at the
temporary White House:
ION Monday, October 6. Hon. Carroll
d. Wright, Commissioner of Labor, went
TO Philadelphia and gave to Mr.. John
Mitchell the following from the Presi-
dent:
" If Mr.. Mitchell will secure the i'm
mediate return to work OF the miners IN
the anthracite regions the President will
at once appoint a commission to investi-
safe thoroughly into all the matters at
issue between the operators and miners
and will do all within his power to OBJ
tain Il settlement of those questions in
accordance WITH the report OF the com
mission

under consideration. but the President
has not yet been advised of any de :
cision.''

PRESIDENT REASSURES
ALARMED NEGRO VOTERS

A delegation of negro citizens called
at the temporary White House yester-
day to receive assurances of the Presi-
dents position toward the negroes OF
the Southern States. They felt some
alarm in consequence of claims made
by the Lilly Whites" that the Repub-
lican party is hereafter to be a white
mans party"
The President assured his callers that
he always approved of q man who did
his duty well as a good citizen, regard
less of color, creed, or occupation, and
the visitors departed in a very happy
frame of mind.

Spirit of America.

The spirit of America today is the
spirit that came from the fire of the
civil war. 1t is the spirit that is more
worthy of mankind than even union,
though without union our prosperity
would have been naught. II teaches US
that 1t is a truth with nations as with
men. that it is not by easy things. but
by the hard things Of life that gives us
the mental and moral stature and the
competency 10 deal with the problems
and difficulties OF life.
Il wish TO say 10 you soldiers of the
old war that your example and the
spirit Of the great struggle in which you
fought exists today in your survivors.
The American soldier of today is a
lineal inheritor. He differs from all SOL
diers on the face of the earth in that he
is modelled not after monarchieal troops,
but that he is modelled on the free vol
unteer soldier of the civil war.

they were intelligent as you were intel
lgent; they were honest as you were
honest. and they are carrying forward as
you carried forward the great cause of

Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey was intro
duced and spoke briefly in behalf OF
the womens organizations. Mrs. Good
hue, with much effect, rendered the
Star-Spangled Banner accompanied
by the Marine Band.
There was considerable applause when
Mr.. Warner introduced Gen. Jacob
Smith, but notwithstanding either from
the lateness of the hour or for other
cause, a number of persons left the hall
when the man of Samar fame began to
speak. He appeared somewhat over
whelmed with emotion. General Smith
said:

ADJOURNED FOR TERM.
Judge Speer Left Savannah Last
Night for Mt. Airy.

Night for Mt. Airy.
At the conclusion of Gov Kimballs
response to the address of welcome
made by Judge Speer, District Attor-
ney w. r. Leaken moved that the
court adjourn for the day in honor to
the memory of Gen. Greene, where
upon Judge Speer declared the court
adjourned. 1t is probable that the
United States Court never before adj
journed under such brilliant auspices.
Judge Speer left at night for Mt
Airy, accompanied by Mrs. Speer. The
other officers of the court from Macon
left at the same time for their homes.
The session of the court, while a short
one, was very successful one. The
grand jury dispatched a large amount
of business during their short service,
and in addition to a number of crimi-
nal trials, the court disposed of many
civil matters, and entertained an I'M
usually i.lrge number OF motions by
the gentlemen of the bar.
Judge Speer will remain in Mt. Airy
until Tuesday night, when he will leave
for Augusta to convene the court IN
that place. On Wednesday the Millen
Cotton Mills case viii come up for
final determination. 1t is probable at
that time final decree will be passed
in the case, the disposition of the mat
ter having been prevented at the term
of court here by the objections of one
of the creditors of the bankrupt enter
prise,
