Winona, Mimi, July 12.-An old man
named Martin was clcverly victimized
out of 81 900 here by. couple Of conf
dencc men. On the pretense of want

deal, they induced Martin to draw
money from the. bank and accompany
them into the country. When in the
buggy they removed the money from
the old mans pocket and dropped him
by the wayside. They left town by
train before the police learned of the
affair. so the chances for their capture

HIS HOME A FORT.
How Samuel Middlebrook Guarded His
 Treasure Against Robbers.

How Samuel Middlebrook Guarded His
 Treasure Against Robbers.
 When the remains of Samuel Middle brook were laid at rest last week, Fair field lost one of its much talked of resi- dents. Middlebrook had for over thirty years lived in secluded old house. He had amassed a fortune. estimated at about $20.000 He was very eccentric and had the house fortified with guns and other weapons for protection againt possible marauders.
 The house in which he had resided since 1850, and in which he lived as re- cluse since 1869, when his wife died, is located on the Greenfield Hill road. It is said to be over 200 years old and to have an interesting history. It is shin- gled and has not seen paint or any re- pairs for many years, until now it is about ready to fall to the ground from neglect. Around the house thousands of fox in full bloom grow wild and the underbrush has likewise grown wild.
 The neighbors never saw much of Middlebrook. Up to two years ago he raised enough farm produce for his own use and the only time he was seen by neighbors, was either in the field at work or when he went to town for his supplies or to bank money.
 At one time he had considerable money in the house and was evidently afraid of robbers for he would not sleep until he fixed shotgun, fully loaded and pointed at the door and equipped with ropes, in such a manner that if the door was opened or forced, as the person be- hind it stepped in the gun would prob- ably he discharged. Should the gun fail he had cord running to his resting place on the floor which was attached to the trigger. At the windows he had barrels holding brick and metal which would fall on the intruder who opened the windows.
 He had secreted about the house deeds and notes of value. Tn one in- stance a note for several hundreds dol lars was found tied up in an old piece of wrapping paper, labeled Mote in here" It was concealed behind a brick in the chimney. In various hiding places deds and money were found stored. He was very suspicious of almost every body and would trust nobody to de- posit his money in the banks. He came to this city and attended to his banking himself and then returned to his home
 Several of the rooms on the second floor remained undisturbed as when his wife died 32 years ago. He would allow no one to enter the apartments under any conditions. The house had not had a niaoe of new furniture in half Q oap ury.
 He was very religious and was a member of the Greenfield Hill Congre- gattional church, though he did not at- tend. He was a devout christian and insisted upon the blessings being said at meals.
 It is said that in his will he has be- queathed $2,OO0 to the Greenfield Con- greyational church and $1,0OO to the American Home Missionary society.

DEAD FROGS.
Were Killed By Coffee.

15--1000th of a single grain of caffeine from coffee, will kill frog of moderate size. The frogs die of general paralysis following violent tetanic convulsions.
 Falck, Stuhlmann, Brill, Johansen, Leven and other famous scientists, and investigators have repeatedly proven it.
 This same alkaloid caffeine, a power ful cerebro-s spinal stimulant and diur- etic irritant, was originally discovered in 1920. Eight years later theine was discovered in tea and the two drugs were afterwards proven to be identical. Caffeine in coffee causes the sleepless- ness, increased frequency of the pulse, tremulousness of heart, and frequent urination noticed after drinking strong coffee. This explains the cause of the nervous diseases that frequently come to regular coffee and tea drinkers The drug slowly and surely poisons the sys- tenn and finally brings on some form of fixed disease like valvular heart dis ease, dyspepsia, kidney complaint or some other, unless the person is strong enough to stand up against the drug.
 Practically every steady coffee or tea drinker shows some form of incipient disease Ask anyone you know and you will seldom find one entirely well.
 Where's the use in slugging and drug ging the poor old body until it totters and trembles with diseased nerves?
 Can't quit?
 It is one of the easiest things you ever tried to do if you will have Postum Food Coffee made right and served hot with good cream and sugar. There is the deep seal brown of rich coffee that turns to golden brown when cream is added. Then the flavor is unique, all it's own. Try it ten days or two weeks and your dyspepsia will either leave or show good signs of leaving, and your heart and pulse be stronger than for long time back. It is one of the most de- licious sensations known, to feel return ing health and vigor.
 Health makes Heaven here on earth, and people can have it if they will but live as nature intended.
 Quit coffee and use the food beverage, Postum Coffee.

A fine oil painting of Dr. Lyman Hall, one of signers of the declaration of in- dependence, is now on exhibition at the public library by Miss H. c. Lane, the artist.

 Thursday a transfer of some of the pupils from the Whttlesey avenue school was made to the Colony street school. In grade the Whittlesey ave- nue school, there have been forty five pupils while in the same grade at the Colony street school the number has been eighteen. It was desired to equal ize the number and for that purpose thirteen were transferred from the Whittlesey avenue school to the Colony street school. The transfer was made on the geographical basis, that is, the thirteen who were transferred lived nearer the Colony street school than any of the thirty-two now at the Whit tlesey avenue school. The transfer gives thirty-two pupils at the Whit tlesey avenue school in grade s and thirty-one at the Colony street school from the same grade.
