Spalding Party Decides
to Appeal.

Only three schedules were submitted at
the meeting of the National league moguls
at the Fifth Avenue hotel in New York
last evening. Five or six were expected
and the situation looks a little more
hopeful. While nothing was accom-
plished during the first session the
world is assured on the word Of N. E.
Young, who was made chairman, that the
meeting was "perfectly harmonious" The
three schedules proposed were prepared
by Mr.. Young, Frank Robinson, Of the St.
Louis club, and Charles Ebbetts, of
Brooklyn.
A. G. SDalding was about the hotel but
did not attend the meeting nor did he take
part in any Of the conferences.
Edward B. Talcott. former owner OF
the New York club. is also at the hotel
and it has been eliminated that he will be
the next president. He is very anxious
to see the middle settled and will I'M

The old theory that mush makes practical
diet has been exploded by modern scientific
research, by physicians of great repute. such
as Chdttendon of Yale and men of like scen-
tifc fame. It has been proven that mush is
in a class with indigestible wheat cakes,
black coffee and like dietic crimes. Mush lies
IN the stomach, pasty, indigestible mass,
fermenting and producing discomfort and in
digestion. Such diet lowers the vitality
and leads to serious and often fatal bodily
ills. Discard mush and treat your system
royalty to Toasted Wheat Flakes. sweetened
with Malt Honey, which is toothsome deli
eacy, easily digested, and makes strong mus
eles, mind and nerve. Every package Of gem
uine Toasted Wheat Flakes bears a picture Of
the Battle Creek Sanitarium.

length on the results Of vice regulation in
various countries and the following resolu-
ton was adopted:
Whereas, the system Of vice regulation is
in operation in our city by order of Mayor
Ames, and
Whereas, the system is immoral, failure
in the suppression or dissemination of vice,
and an encouragement to disease and Inn
morality, holding out false security that is
in itself reflection on the high moral aim
Of Christian civilization; therefore,
.'Resolved, That we, the conference of
Woman's Christian Temperance unions of the
city, representing 500 women, hereby express
our utter abhorrence OF this system, and our
protest against silence on the part of our
citizens while a measure, Illegal, unwise and

Rear Admiral Evans, when shot during

at Norfolk where preparations were made
remarked that he wanted his legs for f,1-

effect on the surgeons. When the sur

Evans braced himself in bed, drew a re-

operate together if any work was to be
done. That same nerve has carried the

The theme of our subject is the name
OF one whose youth could boass of no

he bresthed was laden with the op-
pressive strains and humiliating fumes
incident to American Slavery, and the
sentim ents surrounding him the hum
biest and most uninspiring For more
than q quartar of century his dwell
ing was beneath the sombrs canopy of
obscurity, with apparently no star of
hope pointing to q radiant and illustIl-
ous future; and he that can lift him
self from such conditions and sur
roundings. into the clear, blue sky OF
nobility, greatness and fame, accom-
pltshes an exploit far transcending, In
honor, the glory that CROWNS an earthly
king, or the deeds that gid the name
of the greatest warrior, and presents
to the world the highest type OF man.

A DIPLOMATIC GAME FOR AN EN-.
The Alaska prospector., 1902-02-20
Obituary.

We were comfortably seated in our easy chair, and deeply engaged in writing up treatise on Beans as Diet, when we were rudclv disturbed in our meditations bv the nasty entrance of one of the neighbors, who in an excited man. ner announced that Joe Bourke was running up and down Glacier avenue, frothing at the mouth and evidently very much deranged. The statement conveyed the idea that the pedestrians in the neigh borhood were greatly alarmed. This was certainly very startling news, and being desirous of ascer- taining the correctness of the state ment, we in haste rushed for the door, overturning everything in our path, and upsetting bottle of ink over some bank notes of large denominations that were scattered on the desk, and which we had no time to put in the safe.
 We soon reached Glacier avenue and found that the report was only too true. Poor fellow, there he was, evidently suffering greatly. We very cautiously approached him, and finding that he was not violent we persuaded him to go home, and there fixed him up as comfortably as possible beside the fire. He took the medicine prescribed, but it evi- dently gave him no relief. He suffered all night and died the fol- lowing morning.
 It is hard luck to lose him at this season of the year, when his services are most needed. His master, Jos. A. Bourke, after whom he was named, will now be com pelled to purchase another dog in his stead.
