Robbery.

Oswego, N. Y. (SpeciaD.-Alonzo
Clark, ~, and Elizabeth Austin, 10,
were married six weeks ago. They are
now in Jail here, charged with burglary
and larceny in breaking into and rob-
bing the store OF Truman Cook.
Mrs. Clark is the pretty daughter of
Judson Austin, of Phoenix. Before
her marriage she was a bookkeeper.
On the night of February she says
her husband forced her, by threats and
fear of bodily harm, to accompany
him to the Cook General Store, at
Hastings Centre, near here, and assist
him in entering and robbing it. She
says she dressed in male attire and
waited outside the store while he
broke a window in the rear and went
in. He signaled and she followed him
through the window. She says she
pointed out the most valuable goods,
and held the bags and baskets while
her husband filled them. They had
been married two weeks at the time OF
the theft.

See What Would Happen.

Savannah, Ga. (SpeciaD.-It was de-
veloped by officials of the Seaboard
Air Line that a boy named Birdie Ry-
ais, eight years old, opened the switch

wreck there few days ago of the Sea-
boards limited from Jacksonville to

cept that the child wanted to see what
would happen"
Thirty minutes before the arrival Of
the train the boy told Postmaster A.
Herring, OF Evergreen. that he i'll
tended to open the switch, but the
postmaster, though he lives within $50
feet of the switch, took no notice OF

MORE PAY FOR MINERS
Commission Will Recommend Approx.
mateIy Ten Per Cent. Increase.
RECKONING BY ACTUAL WEIGHT.
The Question Of Recognition Of the Miners
Union Is Considered a Question OF POLICY
and Legislation, and the Best the Com
mission Can Do Is to Make Recommends
lions to the President.

Washington, D. C. (SpeciaD.-There
is no doubt that the coal strike COM
mission has decided that the miners
should have an increase Of pay, and it
will approximate the 10 per cent. which
has been under discussion. There also
appears to be no doubt that majority
OF the committee stands for payment
by actual weight instead OF by "inspec-
ton" and car measurements.
Some of the committee hold that
since the passage Of the Hoar bill ex-
pediting cases on the docket, no strike
would ever be necessary il the cause
Of complaint were sent Immediately to
a federal court, promptly argued and
promptly settled.
The application Of the law OF injunc-
ton. these members hold, would oper-
ate under the Hoar bill to the benefit
OF both operators and miners. A cut
ting down OF wages, for instance, could
be made the immediate cause OF case
and decision in court.
There will be in the historical part
of the report an adverse criticism OF
the delay OF the operators in agreeing
to the present form OF arbitrating the
strike.
1t is said that the committee has
made no declaration directly on the
principle of boycott. The solution OF
that question, it is regarded, is involv-
ed in the character OF legislation to
be suggested by the President. The
commission will, therefore, say that
pending the enactment of law the prin-
ciple Of the boycott be held in abey-
ance.
That is practically decision in ia
vor of the miners union, because 1t
will require year, perhaps two, for
the enactment of any specific law deal
ing with the most important question
of the recognition OF unions. A boy
cotted workman's remedy, pending
such enactment. would not be the stir
ring up of strife in the coal fields by
himself or by the Vaccination OF op..
orators, but by recourse to the federal
court.
Until the President, who has Under
taken the work, and Congress have
acted, the committee will secure an
agreement which is said to be two
years, or the life OF the Fifty-eighth
Congress.

Decide to Operate Tama Paper Plant
w, M. Verhev Made Trustee.

An important conference of bond
holders of the Tama Paper Mills anC
Filler Company was held in this city
Monday. The principal question up 70;
consideration was whether or not The
bondholders of the company would fore
close, or would rebond the institution
thus protecting smaller creditors, no,
holders of bonds, and operate the plant
1t was decided to issue another set oi
bonds. secured by second mortgages
and the plant will be operated. which
will be good news to the people oil
Tama county. w. NJ. Verhey, of Des
Moines. was made trustee Of the first
mortgage bondholders.
The Tama institution was bonded
about two years ago for $4,000, secured
by first mortgages on the entire plant
In the neighborhood of 100000 in in
debtedness was created, and 1t is now
taken up by mutual agr Ament with the
creditors, and rebonded for 100000, Sc
cured by second mortgages. There is no
question whatever concerning the value
of the first mortgage bonds. as the plant
Is easily worth s150.000. Whether or not
the second mortgage paper will be
worth 100 cents depends entirely upon
the successful operation of the plant in
the future.
The trouble OF the Tama concern
came about thru the failure of Board
man Bros, OF Nevada, Interested in an
egg shippers association. several
months ago. The Nevada company lost
about $4,000 and the Tama concern
was holding in the neighborhood of $685.

A judge commends Pure Food.


A Judge of a Colorado court said:
..Neerly one year ago 1 began the use
OF Grape Nuts as food. Constant
confinement indoors and the monoto-
ncus grind of office duties had so weak
ened and impaired my mental powers
that felt the imperative need of some
thing which neither doctors nor food
SPECIALISTS seemed able to supply.
"A weeks use of Gre pe-Nuts twice
each day convinced me WAT some I'M
usual and marvellous virtue was con-
tanned therein. My mental vigor re-
turned with astonishing rapidly; brain
WEAKNESS (from which ] had constantly
suffereD quickly disappeared; clearness
of thought and intellectual health and
activity which i had never previously
known were to me the plain results of
few months use of this food.
Enthusiastically I commend Grape
Nuts as the most remarkable food prep
araton which science has ever produced
so far as my knowledge and experience
extend" Name and address furnished
by Postum Company, Battle Greek,
Mich.
The Judge is right. Grape-N Nuts Food
is a certain and remarkable brain build
er and can be relied upon. There's
reason.
