EVERYTHING Depends on Food.

How often the kind of food eaten determines question of future health and happiness or even life or death.
 Our little girl When put five weeks old had to undergo u very severe operation which left her unable to take her nourishment in the natural way. that is by nursing, and of course she had to be fed. She was naturally frail and the food did not help her. At the age of eleven weeks she was sua- ject to a second operation and from that time she continued to grow thin ner and weaker until she was but a mere shadow" so writes a lady of Ohio.
 We tried many kinds of infant foods and then the doctor directed us to try Grape Nuts. We did so and at the end of the first week noticed afl improvement and afte- that sine began to improve rapidly. As we con in"ed to give her Grape-Nuts she kept gain ing until she is now more than two years old and strong and healthy. Her main food has always been Grape Nuts and to GraDe-Nuts she owes hef life. Naturally we are firm friends of the food and never lose an opportunity to speak a good word for it." Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

 ri the United States will keep her hands on. Colombia will have no diff rulty ir expressing the insurrection aud maintaining her sovereignty over tfe isthmus. I can understand why various interests are anxIous for the independence of Panama. but the gov eminent has regular troops at Colon and they will vindicate her authority lf the United States does not place obstacles in the way.

M DIDN'T FEEL WELL
A Rough Riders Uncertain Diagnosis
 of His Ailment.


 The Republican yesterday morning contained a dispatch from Bisbee an- nouncing the sudden illness there of Deputy United States Marshal John Foster, and though the illness was so violent that he was in convulsions, he insisted on the performance of the of hcial business which had taken him into that part of the country Deputy Foster, until his appointment to that place, had been lieutenant of the Ari- zona Rangers. and before that he had been Rough Rider. serving through the Cuban campaign from the begin ming.
 George F. Truman, speaking vester- day -cf-ihe- indifference of the average Rough Rider to pain and disagreeabIe circumstances when there was some thing to be done, said that after the battl" of Guasimus he was starting back to camp. He had never been in more disagreeable surroundings. The weather was intolerably hot. and it had been raining Many of the bows had been wounded. and everybody was fatigued and ill-humor.
 As Mir. Truman was leaving the field he noticed a Rough Rider nearby. He called to Mir. Truman. saying. Have you got any sugar." MT. Truman said he had and the soldier asked him fer some. Mr. Truman replied that it was at the camp. The soldier made then what seemed to be a nervy request He asked MT. Truman to bring him some. What's the matter with your coming and getting it yourself?" asked Mir. Truman.
 T don't feel very we'll" replied the Rough Rider.
 Well. l don't feel so darned well that I'm going to make special trip back here 10 bring you some sugar. Whats the matter with you, anyway ?' asked MT. Truman.
 don't exactly know, but I don't feel we'll I've a notion that I've got bullet hole through me somewhere. ," replied the man in need of sugar. Sure enough a Mauser bullet had passed through him.

 He says:
 Tt was as clear a case of train wrecking as l have ever seen. Spikes had been pulled for two whole rail lengths. When the train struck this place. most of tha cars remained up- right, and for this reason not many of the passengers were hurt.
 We have offered a reward of s5.O00 for the arrest and conviction of the wreckers. This is a large sum and will stimulate the western officers in their search for the men. We conii- dently expect to catch them before Ions, as we have several important clues already"
 The wreck occurred just after mid night of last Friday. The train was running at a speed of fifty miles an hour. As it struck a bridge the en-

In view of the latest advices from Colon to the effect that the junta has succeeded in gaining control of the situation. it is currently expected that this announcement will recognize the newly established government but it was impossible to secure official in- formation on this point.

EXTRADiTION OF GAVIN
Application Will Probably Be Made To day for Return of Diamond Thief.

Governor Brodie will return today from Tucson. where he has been at tending the installation ceremonies on the occasion of the induction of Presi- dent. Babcock of the university into office. One matter which will prob ably come before him today will be an application from Cochise county for . acquisition upon the governor of Ar kansas for the extradition or Charles Gavin, who is wanted at Bisbee for the robbery there couple of years ago of the representative Of George A Cook of diamonds to the value of $5.OO0
 warrant for Gavin was sWCrn cut before a justice of the peace at Bis bee day before yesterday, and it has been certified to by the clerk of the district court of that county.
 The arrest of Gavin at Hot Springs, Ark, was described in recent Associ- ated Press dispatches to the Republi- can, but it was enormously stated in the dispatches that Gavin was arrested on instructions from Denver for a crime committed there.
 MT. Cook was in town the day fol- lowing the printing of the dispatch and he said he had read it with great qualification. There was, he said, no doubt that Gavin was the man wanted That is the name he was known by in Bisbee. He disappeared from town inn mediately after the robbery. His two companions were arrested, and one of them, Williams, was convicted and sent to Yuma for ten years. There was lack Of evidence against the third man, though there was no moral doubt of his guilt. In fact, it was believed that he and Gavin were more guilty than Williams in that they had planned the theft
 This man was also known to be a crook, and the Pinkerton people had been shadowing him for some time. though they had been unable to secure convicting evidence against him.
 After his discharge at Tombstone, they shadowed him to Fl Paso, where he committed a burglary in the rob bery Of a safe at a hotel and was caught in the act. He Is nowdoing time at Huntsville. It is believed that the Pinkerton detectives, getting tired of following him around to no pur- pose. had things arranged at the hotel for the temptation of him, and that he walked into a cleverly laid trap. He had reason to believe that there was large sum of money in the safe, and one day he found nobody on guard. He embraced the opportunity, and detective quickly afterward embraced him.
 Gavin, though, has been regarded as the ringleader in the Bisbee job.

Difficulties in the Way of Reciprocity Treaty
EXTRAORDINARY SESSION
Will Have Run into the Regular Long Before the Consideration of It Is Finished The Obstacles Which Have Already Been Presented.

Washington, Nov. 5-There were some interesting developments today as tc the method of congressional pro cedure on the Cuban reciprocity treaty. The treaty was amended by the sen ate, adding the words;
 This treaty shall not take effect until the same shall have been ap- proved by the congress"
 It has been generally supposed that a resolution or a bill approving the treaty would be all that was neces- sary, but the members of the house and some senators take an entirely different view.
 They say that a bill must be passed reducing the duty on the products of Cuba, and that every provision af- fecting duties must be enacted into legislation.
 Representative Tawney of Mime sCta, who was the leader Of the repub- Hcan minority that opposed the reel pTocity bill in the last congress, said today that the provision requiring con gressicnal approval when inserted in the treaty was known by him to be defective and open to constitutional ob- Jections. The treaty of 1854 with Great Britain for reciprocity with Canada and the reciprocity treaty of 1870 with Ha- waii, he added, both contained a pro- vision at the very beginning that when suitable legislation was enacted by congress to carry out the provisions of the treaties the president should is sue proclamation announcing the fact and the treaty thereupon should become effective. Both these treaties were followed by legislation in the form of bill reciting the articles that were to be admitted duty free.
 Mir. Tawney contends that to aD- prove the treaty by a simple resolu- tion would be void, and asserts that the sugar provision of the treaty is fnothing more than a pledge of ths good faith of the government that the duties on sugar shall not be changed during the life of the treaty. Any tar iff bill. he contends, can abrogate this provision Of the treaty or the treaty itself
 The finance committee, which will meet tomorrow. will take up the sub Ject Of the form of the legislation nee essary to carry the treaty into effect. Generally, the senators believe that d simple resolution of approval will be all that is necessary, but some sena- tors, notably Senator Teller of Cole rado, thinks that approval. if attempt ed in any such form, will raise a con stitutional question which will cause long debate in the senate.
 Senator Teller expects that the whole tariff question will be opened for dis cussion by the Cuban measure and that it will be we'll into the regular session before action on the matter is taken by the senate.
 The special committee appointed by. the senate at the last session to pre- pare a financial bill to be submitted for consideration of tine Fifty-eighth session of congress has not prepared draft Of its ideas. and Senator AL hson said tonight that he does not lock for much financial Legislation. However the senate finance committee will meet tomorrow. and some definite programme may be made

Gen eral Young has decided that the garri- sons in the Philippines for the present should remain at four regiments of cavalry and niGe of infsntry. When the arrangement for five regiments of in fantry and ter of cavalry was made. it was decided that one third of the infantry and cavalry would at all times be sufficient in the Philippines and twC-thirds in the United States.

 In the confusion following the wreck many of the passengers were robbed. There were evidence that train wreck CTS had prepared the trap by removing the spikes from the rails.
