OFF FOR SCHOOL.
Send Youngster Away Well Fed.

Unless the school child has food that
nourishes brain and nerves as well as
muscles the child will not develop as
ii should.
Brain wastes away waily pust like
the rest of the body and must be re-
built and the only way to do this is by
the proper food selected for just this
purpose.
A school girl of Worcester. Mass.
wrote an interesting article about her
experiments with food to study on:

of the girls had a box of Grape-Nuts.
1 asked her about it, and from what
she told me, made up my mind to try
the food.
LAS the result of eating Grape Nuts
three times a day in place of improper

THE MINORITY IDEA.
1t Will Support the Cuban Bill if it
Can not Get Better One.

Washington, Nov. 12.-The democrat
ic attitude on the Cuban bill, as well
as the general policy on public ques-
tions, is to be the subject of a caucus
of the minority members of the house
on Saturday night. A meeting of the
minority members of the ways and
means committee was held tonight for
the purpose of outlining several amend
ments to the Cuban bill. These amend
ments will include one removing the
diffcrential en- refined sugar and the
elimination from the treaty of that
portion of article which binds the
United States government to reduce
the duties on sugar for period of
five years. Should these amendments
fail, the indications are that the mi
nority members of the house Will sup
port the Cuban bill.
In explaining the reasons for the leg
islation proposed Mr.. Williams, the
democratic party leader, said that
in his opinion the house could
not afford to allow without protest
the enactment of legislation which was
an attempt, although an Intellectual
one, to bind future congresses. The
right to abrogate the treaty. he said,
ought to be reserved in this instance.
as it is reserved in all the treaties
upon due notice being given.

1t Began To Be TaIkedAbOut
Out of Time in Senate
THE CUBAN BILL PUT IN
The Democratic House Members Will
Oppose 1t In Its Present Form for a
While But Will Probably Give 1t
Their Support.

Washington, Nov. 12.-The question
of the eligibility of L. s. Senator-elect
Reed Smoot of Utah was brought up
rather unexpectedly this morning upon
the assembling of the senate. 1t had
not been expected that the matter
would be discussed until after the re-
port. of the committee on elections, to
which the protests against the seating
cf Mr.. Smoot had been referred. That
COMMITTEES has not been filled and it
was not supposed that the report would
he magle before early in the regular
session.
The discussion which, however, did
not touch upon the merits of the
case grew out of a remark made by
Senator Hoar yesterday when he said
that the petitions bearing upon the
Smoot case we're as much out of place
as would be similar petitions to the su-
preme court in the interest of any
case before that tribunal. Senator Du-
bois of Idaho today took issue with
Hears remarks and presented his
views in connection with the petitions
which were presented by himself.
The senate session was brief and
aside from the remarks of Mr.. Dubois
upon the Utah case was devoid of in
teI-est.

WEDS HIS WIFE'S MOTHER.
Prof. Mineey of Georgia, Recently a
Widower, Marries Mother in-Law.

Gainesville, Ga, Nov. 12.-Choo:ing
for his second wife the mother of the
woman with whom he had stood at the
altar when he was fist married, Prof.
N. H. Mincey of Sardis Institute, one
of the most popular school men in this
section, has surprised his friends here,
where both he and his bride, who was
Mrs. Kate Soseby, are we'll known.
The wedding took place in Atlanta
two weeks ago, but the ceremony was
secret and no announcement was made
until today. The former Mrs. Mincey
died only a shCct time ago and it was
understood that Prof Mincey and Mrs.
Soseby were in Atlanta winding up
her estate when they We're made man
and wife. No such wedding had ever
been heard of in this county, and for
a. time it was hard for the happy
couple to convince their friends that
they had been married.

THE MILLER CASE
Finally Brought Before the
American Federation
There Was Both Criticism and De-
fense Of the Action Of President
Roosevelt in Retaining Miller.

Boston, Mass, Nov. 12.-Presidert
RooseveIt's name and his action in the
so-called Miller open shop case were
brought before the convention of the
American Federation of Labor today,
when several delegates criticised his
decision not to discriminate against
non-union> labor in federal employ
nent.
The question came before the con-
vention from the committee on resolu-
tions in the way of a report that a
resolution on the open shop issue be
referred to the committee of the exe"u-
tive council. The substance of the
resolution was that the open shop"
whether under private or government
control, cannot be recognized by or
Eanized labor"
Delegate J. NJ. Barnes of Philadel-
phia. president of the Cigarmakers' In
ternational union, declared that Presi-
dent Roosevelt's decision was a slap
in the face for Iaboring people. PresI-
dent II. y. Hayes, of the international
Association of Glass Blowers defended
the presidents action. Eventually the
resolution was referred to the commit
tee from which it originated.
A resolution was adopted urging that
the government construct all it's ships
in government yards, on the ground
shat such a policy was fairer to labor.

A WHITE HOUSE COUNCIL
At Which ga Little Of Everything"
Was Talked About.

Washington, Nov. 12.-Pres.dent
Roosevelt tonight had a conference
with the leading members in the re-
publican party who dined with him
early at the White House and remain
ed until late. Those present. were
Secretaries Hay and Wilson and Sena-
tors Hanna, Hale, Fairbanks, P.att,
SroOner and Allison. The conference
broke UP at midnight. Various que5-
tions were discussed and Senator Han
ma. when he left the White House, on
being asked what had been talked
about. replied:
"Oh. n little Of everything"
The presence, however, of Secretary
Hay and Senators Hanna and Srooner
leads to the impression that the 18TH
mian situation received more attention
than any other. 1t is understood that
some of the features of the president S
forthcoming message were alluded TO.

A GOVERNMENT JOB
What Putting Down of Chi
CagODisOrder May Become
The Policy Of the City Authorities is
to Take Sides Neither For nor Ag-
ainst the Rioters

Chicago, Nov. 12.-Constant scenes
of disorder covering a district ap
proximately fifty square miles in extent
resulted today from the inauguration OF
a strike by the employees of one of the
two principal surface street railway
companies in Chicago.
All along the lines, however, cars
were started. strike sympathizers made
desperate onslaughts on the crews, be-
ginning at dawn of day and continuing
as long as the cars renamed on the
tracks.
The tieup was made complete. =
number of cars were wrecked, auG
that no person was killed is no fault
of the rioters. One mans back was
broken. The first shot of the strike was
fired at Wentworth avenue and West
SiXty-ninth street, where several hun
dred persons tried to hold up a train.
Many persons. chiefly non-union street
car men. were injured by flying stones
or splinters of glass. Two women
were among those hurt.
Excepting a few dozen passengers,
who had to flee from the cars, the 300,-
600 daily patrons of the company wera
forced to all sorts of other methods in
order to get down town and back.
With faces and hands bleeding from
the attacks of the strikers. motormen,
Gripmen and conductors who tried to
run the trains, entered the barns and
refused to go out again, unless the
trains bore platoons of policemen or
patrol wagons were alongside.
The police were confined in their
efforts to seeing that the passage Of
the cars from the barns was unob-
structed and that crowds and block
ades in the streets were quickly clear
ed.
This was done under orders froIn
Mayor Harrison, whose announced pur-
pose was to preserve an impartial at
titude, taking sides neither for nor
against the strikers of the street car
company, which, known as the Chicago
City railway, is "a private corporation.

south side of the city, from the busi-
ness center.
The possibilities of federal interven-
tion under certain conditions are be-

COIOmbians WhenT TheyHeard
of Secession of ISthmuS
DOWN WITH EVERYBODY
The Colombian Congress Which Had
Precipitated the Trouble by De-
feating the Hay-Herran Treeaty. In
cluded in Threats-Castro's Chance

Colon. Nov. 12.-The Royal Mail
steamer Orinoco arrived this morning,
bringing news of General Torres and
the Colombian troops he took from
here after the proclamation of the
republic of Panama. The soldiers be
haved well on the voyage.
On the arrival of General Torres and
his troops at Cartagena the news of
the events on the isthmus quickly
spread and caused excitement Gen.
Torres and his officers were threaten
ed with arrest as traitors, but the
threat was not put into effect. The
populdce greatly excited, soon crowd
ed the st. eets. crying Down with the
Americans" United States Consul In
gersoll, fearing violence, remained
shut up in the consulate.
The Barranquilia authorities had
been intending to send 800 Colombian
troops by the Orinoco to Cartagena,
but learned that the vessel had de-
barked General Torres and his men.
and they decided to keep the troops at
BarranQuilla. The excitement at Bar
ranQuilla increased with the spreading
of the news of the secession of the
isthInus, which was supplemented bv
exaggerated accounts of the alleged
part played by the United States there
in. Panama's declaration of indepen-
denCe was read from d newspaper by
the prefeCt to a crowd assembled in
the plaza, and was greeted by furious
outcries and shouts of Death to the
Panamans" and Death to the Ameri-
cans"
The prefect followed the reading by
a speech in which he declared that the
Colombian government would never
permit the secession of the isthmus ard
would win back the Lest territory at
any cost.
The crowd in the plaza indulged in
many eXtravagant threats impossible
of execution.
United States Vice-Consul Lovelace
was sitting on a. balcony of his house
at Earanquilla at night when several
stones were thrown at him. He retired
in doors ard was not further molested
by the Colombians. The people of Bar
ranquilla have been swept off their
balance by the suddenness and serious
ness of the news.
Revolutionary talk began immediate
ly. and threats were made against the
congressman responsible for the nom
ratification of the Hay-HerTan canal
treaty. Fears are entertained for the
safety of Americans in Colombia and
of the possibility of the anger of the
populace being vented against foreign
ers generally. The authorities at Saw
anilla have mounted two obsolete
guns covering the wharf.
There is no confirmation of the ru-
NOR which has reached Colon that
President Castro of Venezuela, profit
ing by the plight of the Bogota gov
eminent will take revenge against Co
lombia for the aid the Colombia gov
ernment gave to General Matos and
the Venezuelan revolutionsts.

try the "new republics powerful and
generous godmother."
General Melendez said: Panama
will be able to raise between 5000 and
5000 troops, partly armed. in case the
necessity arises to resist a Colombian
attack, but 1 do not believe that any
such necessity will ever arise"
Regarding the mission of General
Reyes, Governor MeIendez said: "A
telegram has been received by the
government of Panama that General
Reyes is coming to the isthmus in the
hope of saving Colombia's honor, but
really his commission is on behalf of
the Colombian government to promise
Panama all concessions and considera-
ton. The Panama government, how
ever, has answered that unless General
Reyes comes ready to recognize the
new republic and is accredited to it as
the Colombian envoy he will not be
received
Governor Melendez further said he
would arrest General Reyes on his ar
rival here unless he Immediately ac-
cepted Panama's stipulations. The
general is due to arrive at Barranquil-
la at the end Of the week, but Gov
ernor Melendez thinks he will not pro-
ceed to the isthmus. The governor said
it was impossible for Colombia to send
troops overland to this isthmus be-
cause of the physical condition of the
country. 1t is apparent that the United
States warships will not permit any
movement by sea of armed forces.
Governor Melendez tried to send
twenty-five armed men to Porto Bello,
but they were stopped b. the United
States gunbcat Nashville and com
PEELED to return. a schooner loaded
with Panama troops was sent yester-
day to Bocas del Toro, but they went
unarmed.
No news has yet been received here
of any attempt on the part of Colom-
bia to move troops to the isthmus.
Should an attempt be made by sea the
United States naval commanders
would inform the commanders of the
transports that the troops would not
be permitted to land at Colon. The
warships are examining all vessels ar
irving at Colon from Colombian ports
and scrutinizing the passengers with
the object of preventing the landing OF
objectionable persons.

NO SIGN OF NEWNESS.
TIE Panama Government Running
Without any Friction.

Colon. Nov. 12-What has most inn
pressed all observers of the present sit
uation on the isthmus of Panama is the
complete success of the secession move
ment and the orderly continuance of
affairs since the change of govern
mcnt. All governmental functions have
so far been carried on with complete
success, and the unanimous feeling
throughout the district of Panama in
favor of the new government is far
beyond what its promoters anticipated
when making their preparations for
the memorable event of Nov 3. The
successful execution of all the details
of the secession plan show that the
work was that of minds masterful in
such matters and rarely known in
South American revolutions.
The municipal and provincial laws
and regulations which existed under
the government of Colombia have been
continued. With three or four excep-
tions. all the civil employees of Colon
and it's neighborhood have taken the
oath OF allegiance to the new repub-
lie and been continued in office. those
who refused to take the oaths being
sent TO Savannilla- But for the new
uniforms of the volunteer soldiers of
the young republic seen on the streets
of, Colon and the Panama flag flying
over the town hall, there appears
nothing in the daily life of this place
to indicate change of sovereignty.
Porforio Melendez, the new civil and
military governor of Colon, was inter
viewed today by the Associated Press
correspondent. He expressed his full
realization of what Panama owes to
the United States, calling that coun-

Norfolk, Va, Nov. 12-The heIoisIn

seamen on board the torpedo boat de-
stroyer Lawrence today saved that
craft from destruction. \ lighted

box in the vessels forward compalt-

some seamen just before the flames
reached the magazine, in which
quantity of explosive was stored.
In their battle against the flames
Lieut.. Curtin and his men were so
overcome by the smoke that they lost
consciousness after the fight was won
and were hurried on board the cruiser
Olympia for treatment. Their condi-

The fire occurred in a stuffy comps.t-
