was walking up and down his house In a
fine temper.
~ am very much obliged to You, Jack"
he said to his fellow-worker and neigh
Dor as that individual looked Open-mouth-
ed at him, "but really ] am as well as
ever ! was"

daughter, who speedily beat retreat to
another room; then ut Jones.

needed"
mo, they are not. But your time is
worth something. o! yes, but you must"
said AthertOn, us he forced bill into the
young mans hand. "I'd rather pay to be
well than sick any time"
He spoke 30 cheerily that Jack Jones
looked more and more amssed at him.

I'VE can talk 1t over at the mill. Sorry
things have happened this way-but it's
not my doing, it's all that"
Here the puddler checked himself and
bit his lip.
"Mr. Mayberry might stop and take
dinner with us. father. 1t Is almost
ready"
"YOu are welcome none more welcome,
20 such as we have" said Anterior. "I'm
not as mindful OF these things as my
daughter, Mr.. Mayberry. We would be
pleased to have your company"
"Not nOw," said Mayberry. "YOu will
excuse me to-day, Mr.. AthertOn."
Mayberry bowed and withdrew. When
the door closed upon him, Anterior sat
down suddenly.
"You are not WE'LL" said his daughter,
with concern.
ut is nothing" said her father; but she
wondered none the less. His tone, his
manner was strange. Instead OF hang
ing his hat up cheerily, and speaking
lightly of the affairs of the house, Ather.
ton sat moodily, tossing his hat on a
chair near him.
"Dinner Is ready. father" said his
daughter, a minute later.
AthertOn rose, passed hand over his
face, sighed heavily-Irene had never
heard him sigh beforehand sat down. lie
helped his daughter, then helped himself.
But he did not eat much. And presently
he began to talk In tone his daughter
had heard him indulge In but rarely, ex.
cept when some of his fellow-m0lders
came In for an hour or two.
II suppose Sam Gummitt will be man.

better, papa" said Irene, smiling.

and downwards, and SO has grown ever

The ironworkcr put his hat on and
left the house. He must talk to some
kindred spirt--Jack Jones was the man.
The ironworker's daughter was in the

AQUATIC CARNIVAL
 AT POUGHKEEPSiE
This Will Be a Great Fay Among
 College 0arsmen.

Poughkeepsie, June 20.-Violent prac- ticc, time trials and the usual hard preparation the university crews have been going through preparatory to the boat races have been finished and the varsity race tomorrow is regarded tc
 night with great p.rplexity. IT popu- lar judgment, with but a small propor-
 tor Of tbe cut nf town people present is taken, Cornell is the favorite. Up to a late hour this afternoon PcnnSylVa-
 nia and Columbia were the favorites for second place, but after todays per formaCces Wisconsin has come rapidly
 to the front and is looked upon as q
 very formida able bidder for that posi-
 ton. There are those here tonight who
 assert that Wisconsin and Cornell will
 fight it out for the first place tomorrow
 in the varsity race.
 So far as the freshmen race is con
 cerned. there is nobody with enough confidence in his own judgment to pick the winner. In the four oar event. de- spite the fact that Pennsylvania has changed her men. she is looked upon as a probable winner
 As to weights, Columbia has the lightest four cared crew, weighing d trifie over 145 pounds each. while Penn- sylvania averages 16112, and Cornell, the heaviest crew, at 162. h the fresh
 man race, Cornell again has the heav- jest crew, averaging 164 pounds, while Syracuse has the lightest crew. aver aging but 150 pounds. Columbia aver
 ages just trifle over 150 pounds while Pennsylvania touches 160A, and Wis cCasin 15114. In the varsity Wiscdn- sin has the heaviest crew, averaging
 1I2 pounds, Cornell weighing I'll. Penn 1 sylvania weighing 161 on the average. i Columbia 159, Georgetown 166 and Syr- acusey 152.
 A remarkable feature is that the Cor nell crews, which heretofore have been the lghtest on the river. are really the heaviest when all the races are taken 1 into consideration. The races it is be- i lieved, will be run strictly on time. 3 90. 4:13 and 5:30 D. m., the varsity race be- ing the last of the day. It is under stood that the seats on the observation
 train will be entirely sold, and if the weather is fair the crowd will be the largest ever known on the Poughkeep- sic course.

RECIPROCITY
 STILL FAR OFF
Conference Of Republicans Last
 Night Without Result
An Adjournment to No Fixed Time. The Beet Sugar Senators Had Lit tile to say-The Friends of the Bill Urge Party Harmony.

Washington, June 20.-TEe republi-
 can senators held another conference on the question of Cuban reciprocity, and after three hours of discussion, adjourned subject to the call of Chair
 man Allison. without action. Almost all the republican senators who are in
 the city were present. Eight or nine speeches were made in support of Gu ban reciprocity, and only two in oppo-
 sition to that policy. This was in ac- cCrd with the previous understanding
 that as the beet sugar senators had mOnCQclized the attention of the con ference on Wednesday night, their Qp- ronents today should have the great CT share of the time.
 Speeches in support of the reciprocity bill were made by Senators Foraker, Beveridge. Lodge, Hale, Warren. Aid rich, McComas and Hanna, Senator Platt of Connecticut adding d few
 words to what he had said at the We'd nesday evening meeting. Two speech
 es in Cposition to the proposed legis-
 lation were made by; Senators Burton
 and Burrows. The speeches for recip-
 rocity were along the same general
 line, and without exception were pleas
 for the legislation and for party har- mOny.

COFFEE SENSE. To Drink, or not to Drink, the
 Question.

A prominent St. Paul woman com ments on coffee as follows:-
 While 1 was drinking coffee I was troubled with sleeplessness and palpi- tation of the heart. 1 began to feel suspicious of coffee poison and having no desire to drug myself realized how inconsistent it was for me to continue the use of anything that helped to break me down, so l quit coffee and began using Postun Coffee.
 Now l sleep well and consequently feel refreshed. and am much strength encd. Palpitation of the heart has ceased and altogether life seems worth living.
 Some of OUT family like q little cof- fee mixed in with the Postum; that, of course, is much healthier than the old fashioned coffee alone
 It is true that very strong coffee of the best flavor has a little more fasci- mating taste to some palates than pure Postum. On the other hand there are thousands of people that prefer the flavor of Postum. pure and simple. If coffee agrees perfectly, and people are not ill in any way. there seems no good reason why coffee should be discon- tinued unless there is a fear of disease finally setting up from the continued use of q drug On the other hand, ii any member of family is ailing in stomach, bowels, kidneys, eyes, or the nervous system, such one should inn media tely quit ordinary coffee and take Postum Food Coffee. A sure re- suit can be depended upon and q grad ual feeling of health and strength will come from the change. Health, of course, is worth almost everything on earth.
 Some people are so constituted that it is hard for them to give up a habit even if good health is the reward, but it is perfectly easy to leave off coffee when one can have well boiled cup of Postum in it's place.

TREATS WITH CUBA.
Cannot be Sent to the Senate this Ses-
 sion.

Washington, June 20.-The war de Dartment has been engaged for some time with data requisite for the prep ara tion of the reciprocity treaty with Cuba, should the president conclude to send such q treaty to the senate in the event of the failure of congress to grant relief to the islands by legisla- tive enactment. It is not believed how ever, that it will be probable that q treaty will be submitted during the present session of congress, mainly be- cause of the physical impossiblity of preparing satisfactory and complete measure with the short time before the adjournment of congress is taken for the summer. \ high official of the administrations expressed these opin- ions tonight, and in addition negatived the Ii' eiihocd Of special treaty af- fecting only the sugar producers of Cuba.

 The reds" are to be induced to leave Paterson quitely if possible. If they do not go the committee is said to have it's own plan of action. One method to be employed is said to be the keeping of a blacklist, and no matter where in Paterson a man on it obtains work, his employer will be notified to dismiss him. If this plan is carried out it will starve out of the city all the anarchists who may come here. It is said that the committee has s25O,OOO pledged by the men composing it to carry out it's pur- pose.
