Doubted by Friends.

Helena. Aug. 27.-Helena friends OF
Sam Cohen, the insane man who was
arrested near Missoula yesterday,
state that he has a mania for imag.
lining that he has been blowing up
things. At one time he confessed to
having blown up a church with dyna.
mite. and appeared to believe it, al
though his statement was entirely
without foundation. Lately he has
taken TO the idea of blowing up air
ships, and not long ago announced
that he had used dynamite success
fully on one OF these machines, while
II was sailing through the atmosphere
al a great height. The mans story
about having dynamited the bridge
at Livingston is entirely discredited
by his friends and connections here,
and it is classed with the other tales
that are the result of his disordered
mind. Those interested in Cohen
have arranged to have him brought
10 Helena.

~DYNAMlTER ARRESTED.
Samuel Cohen Captured in Mlssoula
Evidently Insane.

Evidently Insane.
Missoula, Aug. 27.-Samuel l.. Co
hen. the man who was arrested by
Deputies Watson and Cannon near
Arlee on Wednesday, vas interview
ed by the Tribune representative this
afternoon and acknowledged that he
was the a who had dynamited the
Livingston bridge. While Cohen will
not talk freely about the matter, he
will answer any pointed questions.
When asked if any n assisted him
in blowing up the bridge. he stated
that he did the job alone.
When asked how much dynamite
he used. he stated about two pounds,
but he refused to state where he Sc
cured the dynamite.
He denied that he secured II at
Billings. on that he had been as far
east as Billings.
He says that he did the job about
6 O'Clock in the evening; that he plac.
ed the dynamite as he had seen men
do and attached a fuse to the cap.
lighted it. and then ran. He heard
the explosion but never returned TO
the bridge to see the amount OF dam
age which it had done.
From Livingston. he stated, he went
west through Missoula and to Spo-
kane. Some of the way he walked
and part of the way he rode on
freight trains. He stopped at differ
ent farm houses and at some lodging
houses at different times. He stopped
at Sand Point while en- route and
from there walked into Spokane. Al
ter remaining i'm Spokane a few days
he started back towards Missoula to
look al the Marent ~trestle, IL miles
west of Missoula. This trestle Is the
highest on the Northern Pacific. 1t
Is a steel structure 246 feet in height.
When asked why he wished to
blow up the Livingston bridge,
he stated because II was out of line.
He also said that If he had found
on his arrival at the Marent ~trestle,
that il was not in line, he would have
blown il up.
Cohen was seen by train crews to
have a hand grip the two days he
was seen along the road before he
was arrested, but when taken In
charge by the officers, he did not
have the grip with him. and claims
to have placed it in a clnmp OF bush
es along the side of the railroad. just
where, he does not know.
While the officers are confident
that Cohen is insane, still they really
believe that he did dynamite the
Livingston bridge and that he would
have dynamited the Marent trestle If
he had not been taken in charge when
he was.
Cohen denies, however. that he had
anything to do with the blowing up
of the engine at Bozeman, a few days
after the Livingston affair. He states
that he came through Bozeman about
that time.
The officers will make an effort to
secure some trace of Cohen's move
ments for the three weeks past, since
the Livingston affair. and ascertain,
If possible. If he has stopped where
he states he did.

AN ENDLESS CHAIN. That's What It Looks Like to Coffee
 Toper.

The trained nurse has hard task in- deed during the long lonesome hours of the night when she must keep watch and 1t is hardly to be wondered a that many of them fall Into the use of stimulants.
 "When I first entered the profession" writes a trained nurse of Kansas City, Mo, 'I was required to give my patient most careful watching and during the long, sleepless nights I used to refresh myself every now and then with cup of strong coffee.
 For a time 1t would seem to revive me but unless took another cup my cond- tion was worse than ever. In time l became extremely nervous and my strength failed me. but sister nurse came to my relief by telling me her own experience She said, I have been just where you are now on the verge of ner- vous prostration, but If you will do as I did you can be restored to perfect health. If you will give up your coffee and use Postum Food Coffee your strength will return and your nerves be rebuilt Upon her advice I immediately quit coffee and began the use of Postum Food Coffee and what change!
 Tt has been two years now since I commenced Postum, and notwithstanding the days and nights of hard work which come to every nurse l find I am strong in every way and feel ready to live my allotted three score and ten. Postum is a good friend to me and l have tried to be a good friend to Postum in return and many of my nervous patients have been greatly benefited by its use.
 "One of these eases l will mention briefly The patient was newspaper editor and his condition was such that the doctors were afraid to let him be left alone l made Postum for him and made it good He was delighted with 1t and quit coffee entirely and 1t was not long before he completely recovered, Is now strong physically and mentally. and has resumed his editorial duties. I know the chief cause of his recovery was the leav- ing off of coffee and taking Postum Food Coffee. He is naturally a good, strong friend of Postum" Namo given by Pos tum Co.,, Battle Creek. Hlrh.

Madame Davenport Talks.

Madame Charlotte De Galiere DaVen- port addressed an audience of 200 women yesterday afternoon at the Birmingham high school-an audience made up of women prominent In the educational and social world of Birmingham. There were a number of school girls present and Madame Davenport held the close atten- ton of every ons of her hearers for over an hour, in which she discussed that won derful mechanism, the human body.
 The speaker was introduced by Miss Mary Cabalon, who said that Madame Davenport was one of the most remark able women of the day.
 Madame Davenport looked to be a woman of possibly 40, although In reality she is 72 years old. She was attractively gowned and although by birth sre Is a Parisian and has been in this country only five years, she seemed to find little difficulty in addressing in English an Gu- oience of Amerio an women.
 The slight foreign accent increased her individuality, and she was not only very graceful, but the very persunifcat;on of Ter own theories that a woman must not grow old.
 Madame Davenport said that she was only reminded of her age by other per- sons, and that she admitted to be 72 years young"
 Her talk was directed along the lines of physical development, its necessity and its results. Madame Davenport is living example of what may be accomplished by proper physical training, through which she believes is reached spiritual growth.
 She said that America knows something of calisthenics but very little of physical training. She characterized much of the so called physical training as physical straining." Madame Davenport said that the American woman trusted too much In her physician, in her masseuse. her osteo- pathist She should know the value of hygiene, of exercise, of dietetics of men, tai suggestion. She should not succumb so readily to the great American disease, 'Ameritinitis."
 Madame Davenport gave a breathing exercise to illustrate the importance of proper breathing. She said that unless women knew how to use their lungs and unless they appreciated the need of fresh air and understood the importance of keeping open their five million pores. they would retrograde physically and physical retrogression resulted in mental retro- gression. She touched upon the power of mental suggestion, and she pleaded elo- quently for women to develop themselves along the highest lines.

anne Davenport. and she reiterated this in several ways, advancing the most help ful and elevating ideas, and pointing out that women owed it to themselves and their families to preserve their youth and good looks not by the aid of cosmetics, but by directing their thoughts along physical and mental training, thereby reaching spiritual development.
 Madame Davenport's address was ap- plauded throughout and yet sine frankly said at it's close that she felt that there was a lack of sympathy on the part of the audience.
 One of the most brilliant women who heard Madame Davenport, said the audi ence impressed her as deeply sympathetic.
