LIKE AN ELEVATOR
Food sends One Up or Down.

Good food sends one up or bad food
sends one down.
Health depends on food more than on
anything else and particularly where
one gets but little exercise care must be
used not to eat greasy, pasty, starchy
foods that do not nourish but cause
trouble.
A big man whose normal weight is
go pounds thought he was a skeleton
when he fell off to 1856. He says: 4
had been housed uD for four years and
was run down from my normal weight
of go pounds when in health to 1S5
pounds. 1 was very nervous and gener-
ally careworn mentally and felt sick and
miserable all the time. getting very lit
tie pleasure out of life.
Then commenced using Grape-Nuts
regularly twice a day and in a short
time I had gained back to 215 pounds
at which weight I am now getting
strong and well and active both physi
cally and mentally. All my troubles
have disappeared and I am lively and
happy.
I am not a youngster any more in
years but Grape-Nuts has made me feel
younger and stronger than for great
many years past There's reason.

INSURANCE MAN SUICIDES.
Fearing the Loss of His Situation He
Drank Carbolic Acid.

Reading. Pa, Oct 10.-After making
the most careful preparations, J. H
Newman, aged SO, of Denver, Col, agent
for the New York Life Insurance COM
pany, committed suicide in his room at
Walters sanitarium, Wernersville, by
drinking carbolic acid
Failing to recover fully from an op-
GRAFTON in a Denver hospital, Newman
came to DR. Walters sanitarium three
weeks ago. He appeared to be depress-
ed in spirits, but showed no suicidal
tendencies. Yesterday he came to Read
ing and bought a quantity of carbolc
acid. Returning to the sanitarium, he
declared tat he was too tired to eat,
and went to his bedroom.
When he did not appear at noon the
door was broken open and the body
was found.
On a table were letters addressed to
his wife, who is in Salt Lake City, and
to his brother, in Chicago, together with
a check for $500 for the latter The
only cause he assigned for the deed was
that he feared he would lose his posi-

RUSH OF WATER
OVertakes IL Men Working in
Hudson River Tunnel.

New York Oct 10.-Twelve men had
a desperate fight for life in the Penn
Eylvania railroad tunnel now being dug
under the Hudson river. They were at
work in the Hoboken end when without
warning the water and loose earth be-
gan to rush through the shield, and in
few moments 200 feet of mud had caved
in.
Owen Mcconnell was buried alive I'M
der the river bottom. Two other labor
ers were taken out unconscious.
The big tunnel which is to cross I'M
der the Hudson to New York Is already
advanced 700 feet. and work is being
pushed with night and day shifts. The
II men were working in the air pressure
tank behind the great Shield which
equeezes out the mud ahead of it like
giant sieve, when suddenly the earth
became loosened and a gush of water
followed
The prevailing air pressure at the
time was only twice the normal The
only thing to be done to stop the cavein
and save the lives of Il men was to in
stantly increase the pressure to hold
back to the water.
Forty pounds was thrown in immedi-
ately upon the men struggling in the
rapidly rising mud and water. McCon-
nell could not get away. The others
were dragged to sa fety but two tainted
under the strain and were carried out
in time to save their lives.

Combination of Police and e. s.

New Orleans, La, Oct. 10.-With $50
police under four captains, large forces
of screw men and longshoremen and
their sympathizers were kept off the
wharves at the head of Celeste street.
where it was expected that an attempt
would be made today to load the
steamer Mexican of the Leyland line
When, however, the Colonial bearing
the st. Louis strike breakers began to
move in the middle of the river, she
was signalled that further conferences
had been arranged between the mayor
and screwmen and that the attempt to
load had been postponed. The refusal
of the dock council to join in d sympa-
thetic strike and the issuance of an in
junction by the United States courts
have acted to restrain the screwmen
and it was understood today that they
were willing to negotiate further. The
federal injunction is being served on
the labor leaders today.

MORE PAY FOR 'PHONES.
Atchison People Must Stand q Rise
in Price

Atchison, Kan, Oct. 10-The Atchison
Telephone company will shortly ask the
city council for an amendment to its
charter, which will permit the COM
pany to raise the price of it's residence
telephones from 81 to $3.50 a month.
The request will be based upon a claim
that it costs more per telephone to in
stall and maintain plant with thou
sand telephones than one with five
hundred; that as the number of SUBJ
scribers increase, the cost per instru-
ment increases.
II will be claimed that when the pres
ent charter was secured the company
had no idea it would ever have to ex-
coed five hundred subscribers. whereas
it now has eleven hundred. The amend
ment will be asked on the further
ground that a complete metallic circuit
system is to be put in to perfect and
modernize the service. It is not pro-
posed to change the price of business
telephones.

duplicate all of the large prizes offered
by the exposition company which may

Question Him.


New York, Oct. 10.-John J. Ryan.
formerly of St. Louis, known as heavy
operator on the turf. has been summon
ed to appear before the stewards of the
Jockey club to be questioned. it is said,
regarding his standing in view of the
fact that he was ruled off by the otti-
Gals of the Fort Erie Jockey club fer
an alleged infraction of turf regulations
five years ago. Ryan was on hand at
the appointed hour. but quorum of the
stewards was lacking and the matter
was postponed. Ryan had been out of
the city for several days and was noti-
fed to appear when he returned to the
betting ring. He is said to have an in

absolutely nothing about the ringing"
case in connection with which he was
ruled off at Fort Erie and that he re-
fused at that time to go beyond Buff
falo to defend himself. For that reason
he says action was taken against him.
He is quoted as saying he will not sub
nit quietly to any measures barring
him from the betting ring because the
Jockey club stands committed to the
attitude of ignorance that betting on the
races exists.
