CAME FROM COFFEE.
A Case Where the To- ling of Morphine

For 10 years." says a young Ohio
woman, Il was a great sufferer from
ttomach, heart and liver trouble. For
he last 10 years the suffering was
,arrible; it would be impossible to de-
l"ribe it. During the last three years
had commissions, from which the only
relief was the use of morphine.
Il had several physicians, nearly all

IN trying different drinks until n friend
asked me to try Postum Food Coffee.
Il did so, but it was some time be-

II have a very delicate daughter
who has been greatly benefited by
drinking Postum, also a strong boy
who would rather go without food for
his breakfast than his Postum. So
much depends on the proper cooking
of Postum. for unless it is boiled the
proper length OF time people will be
disappointed in it. Those in the habit
of drinking strong coffee should make
the Postum very strong at first IN or

FORAKER GETS SCALP.
7ut Former Collector of Customs Vii,
Seek vindication in Courts
Proteue of Hanna,

SkSSS
Washington, April Ex-senator Foraker
and his friends won a two years fight,
wnen Edward II. Zurhorst, collector Of
customs at Sandusky, resigned. Zurhurst
did so to escape being dismissed. Senator
Foraker has Endorsed State Senator Jud-
son for this place and he seems likely to
be appointed.
Zurhorst was appointed to his place by
President Mckinley. He was a lieuten-
ant Of Senator Hanna during the fight
that resulted in his first election to the
senate, and afterWard. Before that he
had been connected with the Sherman
Mckinley organization.
When Zurhorst was appointed, he had
lost a comfortable fortune in business
ventures and needed the place. When
his term expired he had won back his
money, and he is now well to do. His
tenacious grip on the relationship. he ex-
plains, has been due to his determination
ave been willing, he says. any time in
the last two years., to resign the office
Immediately upon securing a ~rexppoint-
ment. But he wanted the reappolntment
for "vindication."
Serious charges had been filed against
Zurhorst when he came up for %reappoint-
ment. Senator Hanna supported Zurhorst
to the end. and scoffed at the charges.
Secretary Shaw assisted Senator Hanna.
Senator Foraker was able to prevent a
reappointment. but unable until yesterday
to get Zurhorst's scalp.
Zurhorst now says that he will try for
vindication through the courts.

How the jury Was Chosen.


Rochester Post-EXpresS: Apropos of
the temperance in the political arena
OF cX-Lieutenant Governor Tillman, of
South Carolina, there is an e]xtraordi-
nary story in the Louisville Courier
Journal that throws new light IN our
jury system and the practice of crimi-
law. According to our Louisville
contemporary there was never any
doubt as to the result of the trial in,
the minds of the defense, and it goes
on to give the reason for this feeling of
safety. AS soon as it vas known in
what county the Tillman case would be
tried, says the Journal, men represent
ing themselves as agents for Il picture,
charging establishment made their APP
pearance in that county. There were
a dozen of them, and each man carried
With him as q sample of the work done
by his house an enlarged portrait Of
Gilman. which was SO natural that no
one could fail to recognize it. The agent
treated the women with marked polite
ness but always did business with the
man / the house. After a few min
utes' conversation he would display
Ifllman's picture. This naturally
enough would lead to a discussion 81
The Gonzales killing, and by adroit
rueStioning-the agents were lawyers,
The canvasser would soon discover
whether the man was in sympathy with
Gilman or against him. In this way
The entire county was canvaSsed; not a
house was missed: and when the trial

we're armed with an alphabetical list Of

was called who was marked danger

furnishes food for thought. The scheme
i so simple that the great wonder is
lhat it never was tried before. 1t is
cheaper than bribery, less bungling and
much safer. In the hands of skilful

RECOVER a LANDS
Attorney Genera of Nebraska Starts
Action to Gust Squatters From
Boyd County Land.

Lincoln. Neb., April 14.-Attorney
General Prout has secured leave from
the state supreme court to file a suit
in ejectment before thai tribunal, the
object being to dispossess the alleged
squatters on lands in Boyd county
land. which the state claims right
fully belongs to the permanent school
fHnd Of the state. The lands COM
prise $500 acres, valued at $75, 900. Here
tofore the attorney general has openly
sympathized with the squatters and
resisted the effort of State Land Com
missioner Follmer to retain the land IS
state property.
The las legislature enacted a law
deciding the property to the squatters,
but Follmer refused to sign the deeds.
declaring the ownership of the school
fund was fixed by the constitution, and
the legislature could not deed it way.
Prout's change of front is attributed
to the influence of Governor Mickey,
who, although previously %upholding the
attorney general, has become fearful
that the controversy might he made q
political issue in his campaign for re-
election.
