Attorneys Hold a Conference.

Chicago, March 22.-Attorneys for the
various railways that it is sought to
enjoin from secretly cutting rates
held a conference this afternoon and it
is said have agreed to make no fight
against the action of the government
This step was decided to be advisable
on the ground that a contest would be a
practical admission that the transport
tation desires the injunctionS dissolved
in order that secret manipulation might
be carried on. The only feeling among
the railroad lawyers is over the alleged
failure to treat all lines alike. Several
of what are called the most chronic rate
cutters have not been proceeded against.
The feeling on this point. however. is
not of sufficient intensity to prompt the
big companies attacked to fight over the
seeming discrimination. The first evil
dence of the effect of the Injunction pro-
ceedings was the announcement today
by the roads operating east from Chi
cago of a reduction in the tariff rates
on packing house products to become
effective Tuesday.

MAY BE AN ADMIRAL.
Prospects For Captain Coghlan Are
Growing Brighter

Washington, March 22-It is under
stood that Capt. Joseph B. Coghlan is
about to be advanced five numbers ON
the list of naval captains through the
remission by the president of the SEN
tence of a court martial from which he
is now suffering.
Years ago when the captain was a
junior officer he clashed with the de-
tail officer of the navy department, and
for writing sharp letter was court
martialed and sentenced to lose eleven
numbers in his grade By the special
act rewarding the captains of the
United States fleet engaged in the bat
tie of Manila bay, Captain Coghlan re-
gained some of the lost numbers, and
he now seeks to be completely rein
stated. This would place Captain
Coghlan second on the list of naval
captains, just below Captain Sands,
jumping him over Captains Clark,
Cook, Wise and Yates Sterling, and he
would become a rear admiral in the
course of the year through the retire
ment of Rear Admirals Remy and
FarQuhar.

OPPOSES A CHANGE.
President Roosevelt is Against Alter
alton of White House.

Washington, March 22.-President
Roosevelt had among his callers today
Representative Mercer, of Nebraska,
chairman of the house committee on
public buildings and grounds, and one
of the topics discussed was the enlarge
ment of facilities for tranSacting the
White House business. Heretofore
there have been plans for remodeling
and enlarging the White House in or
der to meet present requirements. 1t
appears however that, President Roose-
welt is decidedly opposed to changing III
any material way the arrangement OF
this historic structure, believing that it
should be preserved about as it is now
Under these circumstances enlarged
facilities would have to be provided
elsewhere. At one time there was
suggestion of a presidential residence
outside of the White House. which
would be devoted to official business
but the present tendency is in favor of
making the White House a residential
establishment for the president locat-
ing the official quarters elsewhere.

NO HELP FROM BURTON.
Regents of State Normal Got Weary
and Applied to Reeder.

S. H. Dodge, editor of the Beloit Ga
zette, and a member of the board of
regents of the State Normal school is
in Topeka today. He came in from
Hays City where he has been looking
after the work on the new normal
school to be erected on the Fort Hays
military reservation.
Mr.. Dodge says that. negotiations con-
corning the work of preparing for the
new building were stopped the first of
the week because ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF
two of the claims on the reservation
land filed in the United States land Of
flee had, not been received from Wash
ington,- and Senator Burton was wired
by the Hays City people to look after
the matter and have it attended to.
After waiting some time and hearing
nothing from their request they wired
Congressman Reeder the same thing.
Twenty hours afterwards a reply was
received from Mr.. Reeder saying the
result had been accomplished, and an
hour later a. telegram was received from
the Wa-Keeney land Office stating that
the accomplishments were all right and
the work could proceed. Up to a late
hour last night nothing had been heard
from Senator Burton.

NEW THEORY ON
Cause of Hay Fever.

Hay fever is not so much a result of
climatic conditions as it is a showing
of the weak spot" in the general con-
dition of the body. If a hay fever SUI
ferer can be fed up to prime condi-
ton of health by the use of well select
ed food the chances are the hay fever
will not present itself.
AS an illustration, a lady in Cave
Spring. Ga, explains how the change
of food affected her. This past sum-
mer 1 found myself in very low state
of health and much emaciated. 1 got
down TO % pounds and was worried.
especially as 1 had to look forward to
my annual tussle with hay fever in
September and felt it would push me
even further down.
One day a friend told me she had
been using Grape-Nuts Breakfast Food
and that she felt like a new person
vigor. 1 grasped at the straw and be-
gan the use of Grape-Nuts. The effect
was really magical. In a week / felt
toned up and in a month began IN
earnest to gain flesh and strength By
September my weight had increased to
ITO pounds and much to my amazement
1 discovered that when the hay fever
sufferers began to complain 1 had not
one symptom and escaped it altogether.
1nasmuch- as I had suffered for years
from this miserable disease and had
made no change except in my food, /
naturally concluded that my improved
condition was caused by the daily use
of Grape-Nuts and by observing the
usual laws of health" Name can be

There was trouble this morning when
George Dayton Smith representing the
Chicago Symphony orchestra, arrived in
Topeka and it looked for awhile as
though Topeka might not have the IA
nous organization next Tuesday night

fields drug store. He went at once 10
buyers laying down half dollars and
quarters and receiving seats in return
What does this mean?" asked Smith
What are your prices here?'' he in
quired of those in charge.
''Seventy-five, fifty and twenty-five
cents
1t was several seconds before Mr.
Smith could speak. but when he did he
talked rapidly enough.
You don't mean to tell ne you are
selling our house for any such prices as
that?"
Sure"

agent. DO you know that we have not

didn't you kick when 1 wrote suggest

We never received the letter. said
Smith. That seemed to explain lot of
things. Smith became philosophical.
Well, Wen go ahead and give you

A Chapter on SCOTS Emul-

position in the histories of
weak children.
The gist of that chapter
usually reads like this:
"Child weak and thin

day-after a week appetite inn
proved-soon a little stronger
child more lively-weighs
more.
And so it goes till the child
