JACOBSON IMPROVING.

Some Very Fast Riding Expected of Him
 This Summer.
 I. r. Jacobson, the local professional cy- clst, is reganing the form he showed three years ago, when, as an amateur, he led all the best riders In the country in the handi- can races.
 Jake as he is better known to the audi ences before whom he appears, had a bad fall last summer, which completely disabled him for long time. On Tuesday night Jake" won the one mile "pro" race in 56 seconds. record performance if timed from scratch. He finished strong and well within himself, and there Is no doubt but that he will be heard from frequently as among the prize winners if he retains his present condition. The most assuring part of "Jake's" performance is the fact that he is essentially hot weather rider and usually rides much faster when the sun is at a melting heat. His friends are looking forward to those hot July days, and with fair racing luck he will probably win several thousands of dollars in July and August
 Jacobson is booked to ride at the New Haven Coliseum next Tuesday night, when another one mile handicap will be q portion of the big card arranged. He will likely be penalized some for his winning ride Tues day Jake" will also ride in the five mile scrathc race, pet distance for him. which will be the star event of the night, and several small wagers have been made that he win win this event, even with Kramer and Collett to beat him.

HIS EYES DANCE
When His Good Drink Comes.

A coffee that will nourish and furnish all the food required to rear baby is evidently easy food for an adult to di- gest and is especially applicable where ordinary coffee does not agree
 The wife of a Congregational minister gives an experience. Tt Is rather cur ious, the manner in which I came to adopt Postum for my baby. My hus- band used to be troubled greatly with bilious headaches and extreme nervous ness. This was about five years ago. We concluded that coffee and tea were the cause of his troubles and so gave Postum Food Coffee a trial. At first we did not like it because it was not boiled long enough and seemed weak and tasteless, but after preparing 1t properly, and that is easy, we became very fond of it, and now can honestly say we prefer it to any coffee or tea.
 The old headaches and nervousness have disappeared and we both enjoy very much better health.
 When one of our children was a year old he would not drink milk so we tried him on Postum Coffee, and from the first he liked it and it agreed with him perfectly, so Postum has been his drink now for over four years.
 About ten months ago a baby boy came to our house. I was of course, anxious to have good nourishment for him and so drank from five to eight cups of Postum during the day. This with little GrapeNuts Food each day was all the nourishn1ent took, and al- though the baby weighed only five pounds at birth he weighed twelve and one-hlf pounds at three months and at four months fifteen pounds. Now he weighs twenty-three pounds.
 About three weeks ago the little fel- low suddenly weaned himself much to our surprise. I tried him on cows milk but he would not have it. I then tried a certain baby food, then another, but he would have neither I felt very anxious about him, but remembering experimenting with another boy with Postum I gave him some which he drank with the greatest relish. It agreed with him perfectly, so he lived on it for one week Since then he has learned to eat a little other food but he prefers Postum Coffee to anything else, and looks perfectly delighted when he sees me coming with 1t. I said the other morning, I wish the Postum Company could see baby drink their coffee, it would certainly please them It agrees with him so perfectly that shall continue to have him drink 1t to his hearts content. I don't like to have my name printed, but you can say I am a Cong. Pastors wife" Name and address given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek. Mich.

THE DELAY IN THE KINGS CASE. Whatever the issue may be. the case of King Edward will be looked upon as
 an awful example. Whatever the re-
 sponsibility for delay may be, and l wherever it may rest, the case will be an object lesson to the world-not soon to be forgotten-of the dreadful disad- | vantages that come from delay.
 We believe that this responsibility does not rest entirely upon the distin- guished men who have had the kings case in charge Statements in the press, which seem to be authentic, in-
 dicate that the royal patient himself opposed the operation until the alterna- tive was bluntly stated to him--the knife or death The circumstances were altogether extraordinary. A nation was waiting for the consummation of bril- liant and exceptional ceremony. There was every temptation to delay and to take chances. The king himself took the chances, and his surgeons should be exempt.
 The object lesson to the world will have this value--that 1t will teach how little is to be gained by delay and how great a peril is insured by it. We have recognized for long time that he teaching and practice in this country on the subject of appendicitis were in ad- vance of those that prevail in Britain. The conservatism there has been ex- treme; the practice has verged upon timidity. The American rule, we be- lieve, is the better one; and, whether the king lives or dies, this fact will re- main proved. If the king lives 1t will only be by passing through a great peril which in almost all similar cases can be averted by prompt operation.
 What is to be gained by allowing a man to go about for ten days with pus forming in his abdomen? There can be but one answer to this question. Early

THREE FIR ES YESTERDAY.
One Last Night Burned a Number of
 chickens.

The fire department got plenty of ex- ercise yesterday, for in the period of seven hours there were three calls, but | none of the fires amounted to much.
 About S;15 yesterday afternoon the first call was sent in from box 227 at George and Orange streets for fire in a lunch wagon on George street, near Church. The wagon belongs to Frederick Synard and was damaged to the extent of
 about $50, The keeper left the wagon and the gas stove lighted, the wind through the open door flaming the blaze so that it set fire to towel hanging near the stove. A passer-by pulled the
 bell and one stream put it out.
 The next call was a $40 from box 131,
 at Howard avenue and Lamberton
 street. This time a fire balloon landed
 on the rear roof of the house of James
 N. States 23O Howard avenue, and the
 house caught fire immediately, but was
 quickly extinguished by the depart- ment. MT. States and his family are away for the summer at their cottage in Pine Orchard.
 As the engines that responded to this call were on their return trip to their HtduQudFleIS dilOlllef lire DIOhe out III that vicinity, the alarm being sent in from box 16, at Columbus avenue and Washington street. This time some boys accidentally set fire to the chicken coop of Dr. M. D. Slattery, whose home is at S52 Howard avenue. One of the officers of the Howard avenue station was told of the fire by some members of the Catholic club on Howard avenue and he ran to the box at Howard ave- nue and Putnam street, half a block distant. The officer put his key into the box and there it stuck. He could neith- CT open the door nor get the key out, and after working a minute or two he dashed around the corner to box Is, and there he had more success He pulled the lever and the department did the rest. When the f1remen reached the scene the fire was blazing in good shape and scores of choice hens and rosteors had already been roasted. Some of them were rescued, but more were not, leaving an assortment of broiled spring chicken, friccaseed chicken and roasted chicken that made the firemen hungry The damage amounted to about $200
