KNITTED Coffee Knifed an Old Soldier.

An old soldier. released from coffee at 72, recovered his health and tells
 about it as follows
 'T stuck to coffee for years although it knifed me again and again. .. About eight years ago" Gas a result of coffee drinking which congested my liver) T was taken with a very severe attack of malarial fever. I would ap- parently recover and start about my usual work only to suffer a relapse.
 After this had been repeated several times during the year l was again taken violently ill.
 The Doctor said he had carefully studied my case and it was either quit coffee or die" advising me to take
 Postum in it's place. I had always thought coffee one of my dearest friends, and especially when sick. and lE was very much taken back by the Doctors decision for I hadn't suspect ed the coffee. drank could possible cause my troubles.
 T thought it over for a few minutes and finally told the Doctor I would hi; se the change. Postum was pro-
 cured for me the same day and made according to directions: well. l liked it and stuck to it and since then I have been a new man. The change in
 health began in a few days and sur
 pT1sed me, apd now, although l am
 seventy two years of age, I do lots of
 hard work and for the past month
 have been teaming, driving sixteen
 miles a Gay besides loading and un-
 loading the wagon. That's what Pos tulaa in place of coffee has done for
 me. I now like the Postum as we'll as
 did coffee. T have known people who did not
 care for Postum at first but after hav-
 ing learned to make it properly ac-
 cerdfng to directions they have come
 to like it as well as coffee. I never
 miss a chance to praise it." Name

A POSSIBLE APPEAL.
corea May Come to This Country in
 Time of Trouble.

Paris, Jan. S.-Min Yeang TchuRg, the Corean minister. said to the Asse- ciated Press today that he would not be surprised should .Corea appeal to the United States for its good offices in her behalf in case of an invasion of Corean territory by one or the other of the powers.
 Under the treaty between the United States and Corea, this is permissible. Moreover. continued the minister, the people of COrea regard the United States in the most friendly way, be cause of its faithful policy, and owing to the fact that the first country to sign the treaty win he Hermit King dom was the United States.
 Russia does not want war" added the minister. and the Japanese gov ernment does not want war, but the Japanese people, I fear. will force the conflict.
 The attitude ot Corea has not been disclosed, but my idea is that it will do all in its power to save it's territory from invasion and to preserve reutrali- ty. During the war between China and Japan, Corea was interested and con- sequently raised no objection to the passage of Japanese troops through the kingdom. But a different situation faces the government today. Corea is not interested in the dispute between Japan and Russia and her people have no desire to ally themselves with la pan which would fellow should permis- sion be given for Japanese troops tc operate in or from Corea.
 "I have made no protest tc the pow CTS against the landing of an American guard for the legation. at Seoul. Prob ably if war occurs all the nations vii land men for the same purpose"
 It is stated at the Japanese legation that reports that Japan has sent troops to Corea are wholly unfounded.

AN ORDER TO MURDER
Confession by a Superintendent Re-
 garding the Michael Davitt Mine.

Butte, Montana, Jan. S.-Alfred Frank, superintendent of the Johns town Mining company, was put on the stand today in the course of the coroner's inquest over the death of Frederick Divel and Samuel Olsen. killed in the Michael Davitt mine on the night of January 1, by an explos- ion.
 Mir. Frank made a sensational ad- mission. He said he had ordered the blasting to keep the Butte and Boston men out of the Rarus mine and that on Nov. 9, he told the shaft boss to blow up the drift through which he feared the Butte and Boston men might en- ter. He did this. he says. not with the idea any one would be endangered thereby but to protect his own mine.

Suicide of Financial Agent
 of the United Verde
II WAS CLOSELY TIMED
ACCORDING TO INSTRUCTIONS, HIS FRIENDS ARRIVED IN TIME { TO HEAR THE SHOT
No Suggestion as to the Cause Can be
 Offered Beyond the General One of Despondeney. and ko Satisfactory Cause Can Be Offered for That.

Jerome, Aria, Jan. &-(SpeeiaD-- The town was terribly shocked today upon hearing that H. J. AHeg. who for the past thirteen years has had charge of the United Verde Copper eoaapanys office in, this place, has eoglmitted suicide by shooting himself through the head while at his Taneh dh the Verde valley.
 Mir. Allen went to his ganch last night in company with Dr. Woods the company's physician. This morning, shortly after 10 o'clock the Chinese cook awoke them, MT. Allen saying that he thought he could sleep &hiFs longer, returned to his bed AbuYat II o'clock T. F. Campbell, NIT. Allea' s son-in-lawo in company with MT. Cow CT. the company's auditor who had arrived the night before drove up to the ranch and heard the report of q gun in the house. Mir. CampSea rash . ed into the house and into MT. Aliens room where he found him on his bed dying from the result of wound in the head. from a 41-calibFe revolver.
 The bullet entered the left side of the head between the eye and the ear, coming out behind the ear on the right side. In his right hand the .%eaposa was still grasoed-
 There is no doubt that the deed swas done in a fit Of despondeney over the closing of his connection with the United Verde Copper company. He some weeks ago made a demand for an increase Of salary from s9,eee to SIP, 2,000 the demand being accompanied by Mir. Aliens resfgRatien to take ef feet if his request was not acceded to. This raised differences between him and the company with the result that his resignation was accepted.
 His successor. w. l.. Clark. in eOEE- pany with Vice President Macdonald, arrived in Jerome last aisht. He had undoubtedly bro0ded over kis troubles until he became insaRe, as there vas no other knowB reason SBy be should take his lfse.
 A head official informed v0ug cor respondent that Mr Aliens accounts with the company was strictly straight. He left letters to his daughter and her husband, whick aye of private Ina . ture.
 He alsoo left a letter for the esng- pany's auditor with whom he was or: the most friendly terms with the Be- quest written ea the envelope that II be not opened until today. The re- quest was granted and when opened today it's contents caused the hurried VisH ef the auditor and NIT: Campbell to the ranch. Mr. -Alte4asf fa1niIy rehI- tions have always been of the naosc loving kind and Ais personal affairs are in the best possible condition. He leaves s42, ,ess life insurance. All mourn his death and symRathize deeply S'ith his wife and family. Tbe funeral will take place on Sunday under charge of the Mas5ns of which society he was q member.
 MT. Allen was fifty years of age. He was a native of Louisiana He had been connected. with the interests Of w. A. Clark for nBaHy yeaFs.o He came heTe from Butte, MoRt-s in tke early nineties.

UPON WHAT IT IS BASED.

Washington. Jan. S.-Though nego- tiated twenty years ago by Admiral Shufeldt, the state department officials say the treaty referred to by the Cor can minister at Paris, has never been invoked by the government of that country. Its provisions contemplated that when any powers treated the Corean government unjustly the good offices of the United States might be offered with view to an amicable ad- Justment Of the controversy.
 Officials says that if any request comes from Corea for a practical ap- plication of the terms of the treaty it
