postmaster general of the confederacy.
The five members of the confederate
house of representatives are Judge

There are a number of ex-confeder-

thousands of them, of course, il pri-
vate life, but the confederate congress
and cabinet has about passed away.
Many of the ex-confederate soldiers
found good positions with the federal
government eventually, republican ad-
ministrations taking care of some of
them. One of the most noted was Gen.
James Longstreet, the famous corps
commander, who for years drew a
handsome salary under a republican
administration as commissioner of rail-
roads.

SUGAR AND MOLASSES DIET
Reports from Abroad Are to the Eff
feet That as Bone Strength
ener It Is Success.

The use Of sugar and molasses for
cattle and horse feeding is gaining in
popularity Laws in many European
countries have been changed exempt
ing these products from taxation when
they are to be used for feeding pur-
poses When recently in Paris, our
attention was called to certain facts
that may be interesting to our readers.
The Omnibus company of the French
capital owns over 10000 horses, and
as out of that number there are about
700 broken legs per annum, it was ar
gued that possibly these accidents
were in a measure due to some faulty
combination of the daily rations.
In 1901 the first experiments were
made, the one kilogram of sour mash
that had hitherto been used being sub
stituted by an alkaline molasses COM
bination. The results obtained were
encouraging beyond the most sanguine
expectations, and in 1902 the number
of broken legs was only 79.
1t was concluded that the extreme
fragility of the animals bony structure
was due to the absence of the requisite
| mineral elements in their rations
There appears to be ample medical au-
thority for asserting that heavy con-
sumers of sugar, in cases of bone frac-
ture, will recover more rapidly than
when that article of luxury is eaten in
| moderation. In some hospitals, pa
tients that are laid up with compound
fractures of legs or arms receive in ad-
dition to their regular food allowance
150 grams of sugar, the cost of which
is soon covered by the lesser period
needed for the complete healing of the
bony tissue.-Sugar Beet.

"If the Pennsylvania railroad wants
the rotunda of the capitol for round
house am in favor of letting them
have it."
The rotunda is not being used for a
railroad round house and never will
be, but railroad is now running
across across the historic plaza in front
of the capitol, and brings to mind Tom
Hannum's suggestion. Right across the
wide eXpanse of asphalt where the big
throngs and military pomp of inaugu-
ration days are seen every four years,
there is now laid a narrow gauge road,
on which the shieking locomotive and
rattling cars are daily seen and heard
This road runs right past the tree
where President Thomas Jefferson tied
his horse on Inauguration day a CEN
tury ago. and originated the term JEFF
fersonian simplicity"
There is no protest, however, against
this road as it is simply factor in ma
tional progress and the development of
the national capital. 1t serves the
humble purpose of conveying the dirt
now being eXcavated from the site Of
the new office building which is to be
erected for the use of the house of rep
resentatives. This ground is needed in
filling up about the site of the
new union railroad station which
Is to be the finest in the world,
and in keeping with the national
buildings in Washington. AS soon
as the foundation has been exca-
waited for the new Office building, of
course this little narrow gauge railroad
will be removed, but just now it is a
strange spectacle, and one that gives
the average tourist slight jar when
he is taking in the beauty of the big
capitol and surrounding grounds

New Kind of Rubber.

During the past few months discov-
cry has been made that there are in
the interior of Brazil vast forests of
trees from which can be produced a
high grade of rubber known as man
icoba." The area is said to be very
large. but cannot be defined, as the re-
gion has not been fully explored. The
attention called to the first discovery
has led to further exploration, with
the result that from time to time
comes notice of other sections where
like trees occur in profusion. The out
put of manicoba rubber has rapidly
increased during the last few years
and bids fair to be large item in the
eXportS of Brazil.

years ago history of North Carolina
was written, and diligept search was
made for portrait of Secretary Badger
for use in the volume, but none could
be found. The portrait just discovered
is superior to most of the pictures the
department has of former secretaries.

horseshoes are said to have been tried

and shod with one aluminium shoe and
three iron shoes each. The expert

shoes preserved the foot better than
the iron ones.

WISCONSIN MAN IS r
ARRESTED IN RUSSIA
Native of Latter Country and Is Accused
of Violating Penal Code. -

CHELIABINSK, Russia, May 14.-Mor-
ris Kleiman, a native of Russia, but
citizen of Wisconsin, has been placed un-
der arrest here, charged with violation of
article 325 of the penal code. This article
provides that whoever abserts himself
from the fatherland and enters the serv-
ice of or swears allegiance to a foreign
state without the governments permission
is liable, for infringement of his loyal OBJ
legation, to be deprived of civil rights and
perpetual Punishment from the confines of
the empire, or in the event Of his return
without permission, to transportation to
Siberia. The second portion of this ar
ticle is applicable only when person has
been properly tried and condemned for it's
violation by a competent court. 1t was at
first reported here that Kleiman was held
as a spy, and the attention of the foreign
b office was called thereto. The government
now is investigating.
There is no question of summary action
Russia has no naturalization treaty with
the United States and the state depart
ment, While 1t has demonstrated on sew
eral occasions, has recognized that where
naturaliZed Russian returns voluntarily
to the jurisdiction of the emperor he is
subject to the laws of Russia II it de-
Velops that Kleiman eXpatriated himself
with the consent of Russia, Of course he is
not subject to the penalties provided for
by article 325. In any case, unless there is
something more behind the arrest the gov
ernment probably will release the man 1t
is understood that Kleiman represented
an American agricultural company. His
passport is said to have been issued in
Washington in 1901.

ORDER LIFTS CLOUD
FROM LIEUT.. KITS
Army Officer Under Arrest at
Fort Smelling Is Restored
to Duty.

An order was received at Fort Shell
ing from Washington yesterday re-
leasing Lieut. William p. Kits from
arrest and restoring him to duty
Lieut.. Kits has been nominally in
custody at Fort Smelling for the past
month, charged with misappropriation
of army funds while in charge of con-
struction work at Fort Lincoln. He
was tried by court-martial and the
order received yesterday is taken in
army circles to mean that the accused
officer is acquitted
None Of the officers at the Fort
would discuss the matter last evening,
but it was admitted that Lieut. Kits
had been released from arrest and re-
stored to his duties. When interviewed
the officers said that they did not care
to guess the decision of the court
martial.
About five weeks ago Lieut.. Kits
was arrested because he had traded an
old army runabout for a buggy in
good repair. He had been allowed $28
to get the old buggy repaired, but in
stead swapped the old one for a rig
that was in far better shape than re-
pairs would make the army buggy,
paying $28 as a monus to the black
smith with whom he traded.
The charge was made that this was
misrepresentation of funds and that
Lieut.. Kits falsified his report in stat
ing that the money had been expended
for repairs, when it was in reality paid
as a part of a trade.
The evidence showed that Lieut..
Kits report was written and forward
ed to headquarters before the trade
had been made and while he was ne
gotiating to have the army rig re-
paired.

SENIORS MAY STOP
SALE OF THE GOPHER
University Students Are De.
termlned to Protect Their
Class Play.

The war between the managers Of
the university class play and the ed
ltors or the Gopher is still continuing,
and 1t is not known what the final
result VIII be. The seniors had the
copyright for their play granted with
out any trouble, but the Gopher board
IS asserting right and left that large
portions of the play have been printed
IN the Gopher, and they defy the SEN
lors TO get at them for any violation
OF the law in the publication. Still, it
is Dy no means certain whether this
is not little "hot air" on the part of
the juniors and that when the Gopher
appears on Tuesday it will be found
that senior play is unmentioned in the
book.
The seniors, however, have formed a
plan OF action, and if it is learned def
nltely that the copyrighted matter is
printed by the Gopher, they will i'm
med1ately appeal to the courts for an
injunction against the sale Of the
Gopher until after the date of the play,
May %. If this is done, the Gopher
board will be in considerable perplex-
tty, as great many of the students
will have left for their homes by that
time, and it will be hard to give them
the books ordered, thus making a de-
f1cit on an already costly book.

Of $7500,000, making total of $40, 600, 900,
and an increase in the capital of the
Schafhausen Bank verein of $6,250, 600,
