PRIZE FIGHTERS HEART.
Coffee Shown to Be the Cause of His
 Weak Heart.

Frank Wallis. the Illinois champion feather weight, says:
 Nearly all my life I drank coffee, and it finally put me in such condi- ton that training for any fight was all most impossible.
 My breathing was poor and slight cxertiCa always made me very tired. I could not understand it, for I was otherwise well and strong, until one day, in training quarters, a friend ant admirer of mine asked me if I drank coffee. I told him yes and he said that was what ailed me.
 This was two weeks before an inn portant fight of mine was due. He ex- plained how coffee affected the heart and nerves and told me of the good qualities of Postum Food Coffee. inn mediately commenced to use it in place of coffee. The result was wonderful. My nervousness left me, my breathing bothered me no more, my confidence re- turned, and I was as good as ever in a short time.
 'I returned victor of the fight, which I am confident I would not have been had I continued the use of coffee

KANSAS SNOW STORM
 AND COAL FAMINE
First Snow of the Winter Finds
 Some Counties Out of Coal.

Topeka, Kan, December 12.-Kansas is being visited tonight by a heavy snowstorm. All day rain has been fail ing, forming a coating of ice over the ground. and this late in the afternoon turned to snow. It is the first snow storm of the winter to reach all parts of the state. No damage to stock is apprehended.
 There is a great scarcity of coal in some portions of the state. Consider able suffering has resulted already and much more will ensue unless the fam inc is relieved at once. In Kiowa coun- ty there is practically no fuel to be had, although the people have plenty of money to pay for it. The same con ditions prevail in Pratt county, all though on a smaller scale. Complaint is made that railroads confiscate 10 their own use nearly all coal shipped to town in the extreme western portion Of the state.

Kingston. Mich. December 12.-Sus- picions O: foul play which were occas- toned by the discovery of the dead body of Ella Beardsley. tied in a buggy, about four miles south of this village. today. have proved groundless. A post mortem revealed no indications of violence and showed that kidney trou- ble was the cause of her death. The opinion now is that the young woman strapped herself in the buggy when the illness became acute enough for her to realize that she was liable to be- come unconscious before reaching her home in this village.

The colored American., 1902-04-19

We have lived too long to be greatly
surprised at very many things and re
alize that in this age OF abnormal de-
yelopment there are multltudes OF con
ceDtions and achievements not dreamed
of in the philosophy of HOratlo. Busl-
ness is business and every man has a
right to attend to his business after his
own fashion-provided he does no pub
lie harm or refranS from interfering
with the natural rights of another tel
low citizen.
But. when one Charles F. La Fon,
places before the people certain cir
cular. full of miscellaneous names
and nonsense. calling for a mass
meeting under the auspices OF
an alleged organization, described as
The Colored American National and
Congressional Republican League OF
the United States he does the lntelll-
gent Negro citizen a gross injury. One
must see the circular in order TO appre-
ciate its folly. The whole thing Is more
than ridiculous, and indicates to what eX-
tremes a rattlebrained idiot will go II
left unchecked by popular indignation.
The organization has no existence. 1he
publication of the names of prominent
men as its officers, when they knew
nothing of their election. is an 1mpOsl-
ton. The appointing as subordinate
committeeman the most distinguished
white and colored people of the country,
without their knowledge or consent. IS
rank insult to their intelligence. pol1t-
ical standing. Mr.. La FOn may me7
we'll bv his effort TO organize the rae
for mutual protection. but a hysterlcal
handbill. bordering on incendiarism, and
using peoples names without permls-
sion. is not the way TO bring good re-
suits. The most charitable construction
that Mr.. La Fons friends place upon
his extraordinary document Is that he
has gone crazy upon the subject OF ma
tionai organizations. until he imagines
that through this stupendous idea OF
centering all the wisdom and power
around himself, all political and social
problems may be solved.
