Mr.. Charles Blenman of Tucson, rep
resentative of various creditors of c.
E. Smith, formerly in the boot and
shoe business at Tempe, yesterday
filed in the United States court a pc
tition in voluntary bankruptcy. This

by Smith tC j. z. Prize and by him
to the Goodwin Bros. the present own

ATMOSPHERIC ExUBERANCE
People Can Get All Kinds of 1t at the
Doris Theater.

A great deal of comment has been
made respecting the methods of VEN
tilation employed by the management
of the Doris theater and a great many
people are carrying around with them
severe colds, as proof that their pro-
tests are not unreasonably made nor
uttered in subsIantiation of a mere
theory For the last two weeks the
weather has been unusually cold and
the theateer has been more constantly
in use than usual. which emphasizes
the Objectionable conditions, or brings
them more prominently to notice. Ad-
mittedly a theater constructed on the
plans of the local playhouse. is hard
to regulate in respect to ventilation,
but it is a fact that more discretion
might be used tC eXv~llent advantage,
and possibly to the frightening of the
span Of life Of the average Satron, for
colds are not only very disagreeable,
but the death angel often finds a hid
ing place behind them.
On the night of the Murray & Mack
performance the house was crowded to
it's fullest capacity. All was tightly
closed for it was a cold night. With
an audience like that the room sud-
denly grew close and warm and when
the show was about half over one lady
tainted for lack of fresh air. That
incident started things and in mo
ment the windows were raised Iull
height. There was a stiff wind blowing
and with the windows on both sides
open it was not long getting inside.
The entrance doors were also opened

A LINE FROM ZURICH.-Marshal
Kinney yesterday received Il circular
letter from the chief of police of
Zurich, Switzerland. 1t was embellish-
ed by the picture of man with a
heavy head of hair and bearing the
general look of a hypnotist's makeup
And evidently he is something OF a
hypnotist for while the marshaPs edu-
cation in French and Swiss was Il lit
tie neglected he managed to read
enough of the circular letter to find out
that the picture was that of Paul
Hans Steffisburg who got hold of 40
600 francs that belonged to somebody
else and that the authorities would
now like get hold of him. He is n fine
looking fellow and is said to be good

ILLNESS OF r. s. MOORE.-Bnly
Moore came down from his ranch near
Reno, Thursday evening, with his
father, r. B. Moore, who is very i'll

Billy was in Phoenix and sent word
down to the effect that he was in a
critical condition. Billy was en- route
to the ranch when he met the messen-
ger from his father the messenger.
however, coming on to Phoenix to APP
prise other relatives. AS considerable
alarm was felt a telegram was sent TO
J. S. Moore another son, who lives in
California. He arrived here Thursday
morning with his son, and immediate
at Mcdowell learned they had come to
Phoenix by another road, so he re-
turned and all were reunited here yes
terday. r. B. Moore is we'll advanced
in years and is we'll and favorably
known, having at one time represented
Gila county in the territorial council.
He has suffered considerably from
dropsy in late years and this attack
has been a very severe one as he has
not been able to lie down for a couple
of weeks. Though he was a little better
last night. Asked regarding conditions
in the hills Billy Moore replied that
there had been a very little snow, but
strange to say. while it is going away
1t seems to be evaporating rather than
melting as the ground beneath it is
perfectly dry. The ranges are pretty
dry and considerable uneasiness is felt
over the lack of precipitation of any
thing wet

NO FAIRY TALE.
But Z True Coffee Story.

4 coffee tale well told by a lady of
East st. Louis:
During the first five years of nv
married life my husband was constant
~ taking medicine TO. severe head
aches every day and he was always
constipated. His back ached and liver
and kidneys seemed terribly out of or
der. One doctor said the trouble Law
in his kidneys. there were traces of 100
much albumen, but after taking several
bottles of medicine without getting
any relief he changed doctors going TO
celebrated physician of st. Louis who
said it was his stomach and gave him
physic- and a tonic to build up his
system. But every effort failed and lie
became discouraged.
Then he consulted another doctor
who after a thorough examination told
him he was on the verge of appen6i-
citis and that an operation was neces-
sary which he would perform for $50.
My husband consulted me and l re-
fused my consent as several of our
friends had been operated upon. one
of whom had died from just such an
operation and in some cases it was
found too late, that they were not suf-
fering from appendicitis at all This
was in JULY persuaded my husband
to at least wait until cooler weather.
About this time my attention was call
ed to the effect coffee often had on
liver and bowels.-so 1 got some Postum:
Cereal Coffee and after trying il 1 de-
cided to use it but feared he would
refuse to drink it so said nothing about
it. L served it at supper and after
tasting it he remarked:
|, &c ,,
why I asked.
Because it tastes better than it did
today And my father who lives with
us remarked. I was just thinking there
was something good about it, and
said,
" Yes. / am trying a new brand but
did not tell them what it was.
The next morning my father said he
had slept better than he had for
months as he usually laid awake most
of the night. When my husband re-
turned from work in the evening he
was in fine spirits, said he felt so
good. did not have the customary
headache FOR the first day in a long
time. Only those having an ailng
man around can realize how unpleasant
my life was at this time, husband cross
and grabbed, nothing satisfied him and
many Il cry l have had over his cranki-
ness. Well lie kept on day by day
getting better for we continued using
Postum with Grape Nuts generally for
breakfast with graham bread and
fruit. and ne is now entirely we'll;
headaches and pains of all kinds are
banished, physics are thrown to the
dogs, his bowels are regular as clock
work. he eats what he pleases sleeps
like a top and weighs 10 pounds.
Postum has also helped my father
as he does rot complain of sleepless-
ness any more and rheumatism and
neuralgia do not bother him so often.
1t is d blessed relief that we all owe
to Postum. Il have a friend here
who had almost as obstinate case of
constipation as my husband and l per-
suaded her 20 try Postum with the re-
suit that she is entirely cured and has
