O.
When the coffee topper, i'll from coffee
drinking, finally leaves off coffee the bat
tie Is only half won. Most people require
some hot drink at meal time and they
also need the rebuilding agent to build
up what coffee has destroyed. Postum is
the rehuilder. the other half Of the battle.
Some people stop coffee and drink hot
water, but find this a thin, unpalatable
diet. with no rebuilding properties. It is
much easier to break away from coffee
by serving strong, hot, we'll boiled Pos
tun in its place. A prominent wholesale
grocer Of Faribault, Mimi, says: For

digest my food. went to a doctor who
prescribed q tonic and told me to leave
off coffee and drink hot water.
II did SO for a time and got some relief
but did not get entirely well, so lost pa
tience and said: .Oh, well, coffee isn't
the cause of my troubles and went back
to drinking 1t. / became worse than ever.
Then Postum was prescribed. It was not
made right at first and for two morn
Z ings could hardly drink It.
Then I had it boiled full fifteen min
utes and used good cream and I had a
most charming beverage.
II. fairly got fat on the food drink and
my friends asked me what had happened
I was so well. I was set right and cured

HE WAS MURDERED
Skeleton Of Roberts, Who, Disap-

Ago, Plowed Up. >@a
He and a Girl Thought to Have Been
4 Made Away With by a r.
Somesteader.


Special to The Journal n .f .s-....
Sioux City, Iowa, April pa thirty
three old murder mystery was cleared up
to-day when the skeleton of Sol Roberts,
who disappeared in March, 1870, was
plowed up near this city. The body had
been buried under a fence, which was
moved last year, and was but a foot under
ground. The dimensions of the skeleton
conceded exactly with the description of
Roberts.
The community has always believed
that Roberts and German girl were muir
dered by a homesteader named Anderson.
The girl came from Germany with a
large sum and Disappeared two days be-
fore Roberts did. "A trunk of her clothes
was afterwards found in the house, two
days after Roberts disappeared.
Anderson sold al his property andl left,
never having been seen since. Roberts
was employed by Anderson and it has
been thought he was killed because he
knew Of the girls murder. The body was
found near Andersons old place.
This is the first definite confirmation
of: the circumstantial evidence against
Anderson.

TEDDY UND D'SPECKY'
President Said to Have Addressed
Baron yon sternburg in Jocu-

And the German Press Becomes Al
most Hysterical Over the I'm
fortunate incident.
New York, Sun Special Service.

Berlin. April 22.-B.>cause President
Roosevelt, who does not himself object to
being called Teddy is reported to have
so far forgotten himself as to greet the
German ambassador, Baron Speck Won
Sterrburg. as "Specky," the Berliner
Neuste Nachriehten prints bitter com
ment upon the baron's "'crawltng atti-
tude' at Washington and his gross fiat
terry of Americans It also declares the
presidents familiarity to be most
''painfup', for Germans to contemplate.
The action Of the United States govern
ment in ordering the American squadron
to greet President Loubet after the re-
lection OF the invitation to- k1el is still
widely discussed. In the public mind and
in the press the incident is taken as a
direct slap al the kaiser. While there Is
q likelihood that members Of official cir
cles properly understand the true inward
ness OF the movement, yet they have not
seen fit to correct the public impression.
The Berliner Neuste NachT1chten's lead
er declares Germany and the emperor are
being made the laughing stock of the
whole world, and says the refusal to send
an American squadron to kiel is another
evidence that the German empire has lost
the respect it formerly enjoyed among ma
tions. IT pictures the indignation result
ing from American parttality and declares
all German people are offended. Not
wittstanding the effirts ctf the official
Journals to show there is no i'll feeling
and that all is moving correctly says
this organ. such statements only inspire
amusement. Even tho we may wish to
maintain calm ATTITUDE, the American
squadron question must leave a bitter
taste
The Berlin Tageblatt INDUCES in a still
more bitter TRADE. It's correspondent
in New York reports that the Kearsarge,
Alabama and Illinois will not be sent to
European waters, because Of their being
unserviceable. The Tageblatt sarca stical-
ly comments as follows:
''This refers tc the squadron which EN-
peror William invited to- Klel. If the
ground on which the squadron was not
sent over is correctly stated, this is an
other remarkable Illustration Of the boast
fulness with which Americans recently
compared their fleet with European
navies. 1t was to have served as an occu-
lar demonstration Of comparatively power
full American protected ships in action.
This squadron was to have n1aneuvered IN
Portuguese waters and sailed back to
America without taking coal-?'

Little Children Whom He

st. Louis, April 22.-The Humane So
ciety has taken two children, George and
Florence Migge,, aged Srand-!7 years, from
the home of John Earl ON Washington
avenue, and Earl sisein Jail charged with
mistreating them. z. The boys back is
laoerated to his hips. both eyes are BACKED
and four of his teeth are missing. The
little girl is even in worse condition. On
the instep Of her right foot is a wound,
caused, it is said, by the application of
a glowing poker. Portions Of her stock
ing had been burned into the flesh. Four
fresh scars are on her left limb and there
is deep scalp wound in the top of her
head. .--- s-- s@es* - ssE
The Humane society charges that Earl
inflicted these injuries as a punishment
because the children refused to perform
acrobatic feats which he had endeavored
to teach them. The wound on the little
girls head was caused by her falling from
a trapeze. Earl and his wife travel as
performers with patent medicine shows.
Recently they took the children from an
orphan school for adoption, and when one
of the officers Of the institution called to
see how the children were getting along,
