Fort Brady Barracks Burned.

SAULT STE. MARIE, Mich. Jan. g.
The fine barracks at Fort Brady, which
were built in 1892, were destroyed by fire
to-day. The barracks were occupied by
a battalion of the Fourteenth United
States Infantry, and the men saved their
accouterments and the furniture of the
building. There was little water in the
city pipes when the alarm was turned In.
and consequently not sufficient pressure
In the mains for the firemen to cope with
the flames. An investigation of the lack
OF water is now being made

IN FAYETTEVILLE
Cumberland County Wishes 10 Issue
Bonds for Road Making.
(spccinl to Tho Times. DIspatch.

FAYETTEVILLE, N. G., February q
Cumberland county asks the present Leg
slature for authority TO Issue 10000 In
sbol.ds bearing s per cent. interest, to run
thirty years, for the construction and i'm
sprovement Of the county roads, The At
slantic Coast Line Railroad tax, bringing
In $1,000. is regarded as good guarantees
for taking care OF the interest on these
bonds and providing a sinking fund for
theli payment at maturity. The design
Is to issue only $1,000 OF the bonds am
nually. not to bear Interest until they are
marketed. The county works the roads
by the chain-gang convict system.
Two or three circumstances connected
with Utleys voluntary surrender 10 the
authorities and his return to jall yester.
day show that he himself anticipated no
such tame ending OF the big sensation Of
HIS break for liberty. He states that when
he emerged from the Vail the darkness
first confused him, and then he was SO
dazed by the glare OF the electric lights
that he lost his bearings. Els plan was
TO make for the passenger station on
upper Hay Street, and board the south
bound train at O'clock In the morning.
Instead he went east, found himself in the
vicinity of the Holt-Williamson cotton
t!ill. and skirted, the town, probably going
south by Mineral Springs
Again, John McGirt. the Robson county
| farmer, to whom Utley surrendered him
self. states that besides the inevitable pis-

that the fugitive was "heeled" for long

of the Mt. Vernon estate, and it vas
from him that the present owners-the

historic ground.
The Mount Vernon plate Is of meal
culable value. It's association with Geo.
Washington and the fact that beyond a
doubt 1t had been in almost daily use by
him puts the loss to DR.. Tucker beyond
estimation.
Tho pieces are OF the slender artistic

Although 1t looks almost as IL the thief
or thieves had deliberately selected the
Washington plate. this theory is entire
~ untenable. as no disposition of the
stolen goods Is possible. While the Mt.
Vernon specimens are of almost UNI
limited value to collectors. they are so
few In number and SO accurately denti-
fed that It would be impossible to sell
the specimens without arousing suspicion
and causing the apprehension of the
guilty persons.

THE LUNCH QUESTION.

How a Big Chicago Firm Solved It.
So many employees bolt the lunch
and eat what they should not. that they
soon show the effect in nervousness and
dyspepsia. This has attracted the atten-
ton of managers Of the big stores and
shops. In one Chicago firm an expert
mont on some OF the girls resulted in a
complete solution of the question.
The woman that made the experiment
tells the tale as follows: about a year
ago I became alarmed at the state Of my
daughters health. She was employed
by big firm here and for some reason
steadily lost flesh, grew very nervous,
had no appetite and could not sleep.
Questioning her I found she ate but
little lunch, for at that busy hour shc
was seldom served promptly. and the
time being shrort, she just 'bolted the
food and rushed back. She ate very light
breakfasts and could see she suffered
from lack of nourlshment. felt respon-
s!ble for this, and finally got her some
Grape-Nuts for breakfast
II also got a neat leather case holds
Ing two pint TASKS. One filled with
milk, the other with cold Postum Coffee
which had been properly made. She also
carried a package of Grape-Nuts The
Postum she drank iced with dash Of
lemon. She followed the Grape-N Nuts VITA
some fruit. and this made up her lunch,
In spite of the warm weather she i'm
proved greatly In two weeks time. She
gained In flesh, her nerves were steady
and she slept swoetly at night She never
felt the old weakness from hunger
In a short time few other girls In
tho office tried 1t. and the effect was SO
marked upon all that still Others were
persuaded. Finally room was cleared
out and tho one hundred and odd girls
Wero served daily with Grape-Nuts and
hot Postum. 1t was revolutions; but
the manaser saw tho sood result and
adonted the plan. greatly to the benetlt

saving " expense Name given by
