Chicago, Aug. 3.-Standing near win
dow of Judge Chetlain's court, Mrs. Will
liam Hickey held her baby and threatened
to dash it to the ground should any at
tempt be made to take it from her. Juve-
nile court officers were planning to have it
removed from the custody of the mother.
''rhis is my child she said. IT love 1t
and I'm going to keep it. Why should
other women attempt to take it from me ?
Rather than that I will throw it from the
window. If any persons take my child !
will kill them within an hour"
Mrs. Hickey was aroused to anger, but
she was cool in her wrath, and it was
feared the child would be injured. Judge
Chetlain persuaded her from the window
and postponed consideration Of the effort
| to have the custody Of the child taken

HOBSON WANTS REVENGE
He Will Be Congressional Candidate
Against Rep. Bankhead.

Washington, Aug. s.-Captain Richard
Pearson Hobson, U. S. NJ, retired, an
nounces that he will run for congress
against Representative John Hollis Bank
head Of the sixth Alabama district. The
fighting man Of Merrimac fame does not
hesitate to say that one reason he desires
to defeat Representative Bankhead is be-
cause the latter voted against his going on
the retired naval list.
Mr.. Bankhead did not think Hobson
would resign, and figured that by keeping
him in the navy he could be kept out of
political life. In all this Bankhead was
mistaken, for Hobson not only had the
nerve to resign, but is now after Bank
heads seat In congress.

THINGS TO KNOW
About Coffee and What It Does.

Being a very hard worker and of an
extremely nervous temperament 1 fell
into the habit of making coffee do for
both food and drink when my work was
pushing me and my appetite was poor,
says q trained nurse
This I would do foI~a day or two and
then be Frustrated with heart trouble,
huttering. faint spells and other dis
agreeable feelings. One day was per-
suaded to try Postum Food Coffee in
place of coffee. I liked the Postum as
well as the coffee and 1 found I could
drink as much of it and as often as I
wished. and instead of knocking me out
as coffee used to I steadily gained
strength. I had no more trouble with
my heart no more bloating, and no
more stomach sickness. 1 have now
been using Postum 10 months in place
of coffee which means that I have given
up coffee and sickness for all time I viii
stick to Postum and be well in the fu
ture.
MY mother had been a great coffee
drinker from her youth and had suffered
all of the minor coffee ills such as stom-
ach trouble, heartburn. severe head
aches, etc. She tried Postum but did
not make it right Then 1 made some
for her, boiling it Is minutes and did
not tell her what it was; she wanted to
know what brand of coffee it was that
was so delicious. I had taken it out
Of her own box of Postum and when I
told her so. she was much surprised and
pleased and has been drinking it ever
since with the result that her coffee ills
have disappeared and she is now healthy
and contented.

Nurse is a great sufferer from liberated

eat a mouthful of food for several days.
AT such times she relies on Postum for
nourishment. Since using Postum she
gets over her attacks much quicker. is
stronger and the attacks are less fire.
seems TO be getting better and we are
quite certain that Postum will soon cure
her completely.
Another patient is a splendid exam
pie Of what Postum Will do. Her health
had been very bad for three years and
year ago she was a wreck from nerv-
GUS prOstration and the worst form Of
dyspepsia. bloating. heart trouble, etc.
I made her leave off coffee and all other
drinks and gave her Postum and she
improved Immediately. She is now able
to attend to her home and says that
Postum has given her a new lease Of
life. She feels like new woman and is
getting fat.
i must tell you of one more case a
person I nursed through what the ply
sicians termed a morphine break down.
This woman's stomach revolted at sight
or mention of food and she took abso-
lutely nothing but strong coffee. / knew
her heart would not much longer stand
up under cohee and I told her husband
to set a box of Postum. made it
strong for her and in less than week
she could take all necessary food and
not once was the Postum refused and
now after three months she is well and
strong and is kept so by her steady use

I6 BRIDGES GONE.
One of the Big Items Of Loss by
Flood at Kansas City.

Kansas City. June 5.-Estimates of the
damage done by the flood are being re-
duced- At first they ranged from $780,
100000 up, but now they are all much
below that figure. The greatest loss
was of 10 bridges across the Kansas
river, all substantial structures. The
packing house plants did not suffer Sc
verely. The Cudahy and Schwarzschild
and Sulzberger plants lost no fresh
meats. The other packers were not so
fortunate, but the buildings are all I'M
injured. At Armour's the fires were
lighted late yesterday afternoon The
wheat and -four in the mills and eleva-
tors was not injured, but $50 carloads
of grain submerged on the tracks was
ruined.
The railroads began to open cars to-
day, but the greater part of the freight
cars We're still partially covered
Small storekeepers in the flooded dis
trict are ruined and the losses on build
ings are distributed among thousands
of owners No first class modern
building has been ruined.
