FROM THE BENCH.
A Judge Commends Pure Food,

"A judge Of a Colorado court said: Near
~ one year ago began the use Of Grape
Nuts as a food. Constant confinement in
doors and the rnonotonous grind Of office
duties had SO weakened and impaired my
mental powers that felt the imperative
need of something which neither doctors
nor food specialists seemed able to supply.
"A week use Of Grape Nuts twice each
day convinced me that some unusual and
marvellous virtue was contained therein
My mental vigor returned with astonishing
rapidity; brain WEAKNESS tfrcm which I
had constantly suffered) quickly disap-
peared; clearness of thought and intel
lectual health and activity which Il had
never previously known were to me the
plain results of a few months use OF this
food.
unhesitatingly commend Grape Nuts
as the more remarkable food preparation
I which science has ever produced so far as
my knowledge and experience extends .
Name and address furnished by Postum
Co, Battle Creek, Mich. sss
The judge is right. Grape Nuts food is
certain and remarkable brain builder
and can be relied upon. There's a reason.

''Of course, Mr.. Wardell will win this

ISIUY FISH LAID EN- OUT
Millionaire Member of the Yale
Grew Takes a Fall Out Of
Three Freshmen.
New York Sun Special Service.

New Haven, Conn, May 19.-Single-
handed, Stuyvesant Fish. Jr., Of New
York city, last night humbled the spirit
of three very saucy Yale freshmen Fish
is. a sophomore and, goaded by the fresh
man taunts, scattered the trio.
The encounter took place just after the
annual celebration commemorating the
abolition Of the freshman societies years
ago and is known as Omega Lambda Chi
Night" The main feature Of the celebra-
ton was tug Of war between the fresh
men and sophomores. The freshmen had
nearly fifty more hands on the rope than
the sophomores and they pulled 1905 all
over the campus. Is s5{ 81 AZ \.
+ A party Of three 1906 men were taking
away long piece Of the rope used. in the
fray to cut into trophies for their rooms
when Fish quietly passed them. The
freshmen addressed some sarcasti re-
marks to each other about sophomores IN
general and about Fish IN part ocular. He
turned and dashed into the trio. One
freshman found himself III the middle OF
the street "rubbering' at consultations
not down In Yale astronomy Another
banged up against the fence as II cy-
clone had hit him. Fish grappled with the
third freshman for the possession OF the
rope and wrested 1t from him In a twink
ling. 9
While the freshmen were getting their
wits together Fish disappeared In the
darkness. He is now a, regular member Of
the Yale varsity crew, and rowed on the
Yale eight against the Annapolis cadets
two weeks ago.

WHO IS BEHIND MOFFAT?
That Is the Problem Vexing the
Railroad World.
Special to The, Journal.

Special to The Journal.
New York, May 19.-There is a posi-
bility of interesting developments in Den
yer, Northwestern & Pacific within the
next month and it is even possible that
the identity Of the hackers of David II.
Moffatt may be revealed. Pronounced
antagonism to the new road has been
manifested by the Union Pacific and a
sharp fight has been inaugurated to pre-
vent much progress being made or to
knock it out altogether. 1t is probable
that the Gould interests are not friendly
to it either and Moffatt seems to be alone
in the fight but it is surprising to note
how esily he disposed Of bonds while the
road was still only a paper affair. The
rapidity with which he has pushed pre-
linninaries excites curiosity. The new line
will be very important.
There is good reason to believe that
the Atchison and Rock Island are be-
hind Mofatt and that when Denver &
Northwestern is completed control Of the
property will be vested in these two roads.
Dentals are likely to be more technical
than accurate. Senator Clark's road has
been removed as a possible source OF
trouble but Moffatt's is an entirely Diff
ferent proposition. Moffatt is not the
kind Of man likely to be beaten and the
ultimate completion Of his road seems
assured.

REBONDING PLAN FAILED
United States Steel Corporation Dea
Does Not Prosper.
New York Sun Special Service

New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, May 19.-The great stock con-
version plan of the United States Steel
corporation, which was wound up by
limitation on Saturday. last, was, it is
asserted by unofficial sources, unsatis-
factory from the standpoint of its spon-
sors. The scheme, in brief, was that
5000, 900, 900 Of the preferred stock was to
be retired and per cent bonds issued in
its place. At the same time it was pro-
posed to issue s5o,00O,0OO Of new securi-
ties in the shape Of 5 per cent second
mortgage bonds.
To guarantee the success Of the retire
ment of $500, 100000 preferred stock and
the issuance OF $4,000 900 OF new bonds,
]. F. Morgan e Co. formed a syndicate
with the big banking firm as managers
guaranteed would supply $780, 900 in
subscriptions. OF this amount $4,000
900 was to be in preferred stock and for
the remaining s2o000,o00 In bonds pay
ment would be made in cash.
Toward this $250,o00.000 plan only $140,-
0O0, 900 was subscribed, according to reli-
able information In Wall street day.
This amount. 1t is understood, included
the 500, 00o, 900 pledged by the under

| therefore, that outside the underwriting
/ syndicate the preferred stockholders sub
scribed only $4,000, 900 toward the sue
cess OF the financial plan.
In other words, If the semi official es-
innate is correct the syndicate will Itself
have to take practically the entire amount

Had Its Say.

more than 100 settlers are favorably af-
fected and fifteen townships in the Lake

Settlement Of the case was before the

cover SIS, the value of the twenty logs
cut upon land ho1nesteaded by Matt Blen-
dauer for the purpose of building a

Judge knowles holds that the lands
were not public lands when set aside by

long to the reserve. He declares that the

says: ~ IS :
