ling from the Milwau kee home for de-
pendent children, was sentenced by
Judge Russell, Of the county court, to

the parents were forced to ask for re-
lief.
They told the court that the child

poison them by placing carbolic acid in
the food they ate and that she had
fed the chickens corn saturated with
kerosene. The girl admitted on the
stand that she had tried to poison the
couple, but said that she could not eX-
plain why she did so, that she loved
them dearly and that they had treated
her kindly.

SECRETARY MORTON. these actions for
contempt of court injunctions would
be begun in the federal courts of Chi
cago and Kansas City. Special coun-
sci may be engaged in the Chica go
suit. His action is in accordance with
the order of the president.
President Defends Secretary Morton.
The attack on Secretary Morton, OF
the navy department, has brought forth
vigorous defense of him from the
president, who in letter to the secre-
tary, relating to the charge that Nor
ton, as vice president of the Sante Fe.
was guilty Of violation Of the law, has
declared unequivocally that Morton is
entirely innocent of his official career
az cabinet officer, the president says:
You have shown yourself to be one of
the most faithful and devoted public
servants with whom It has ever been
my good fortune to be connected
Ne Prosecution Of the Secretary.
All of which means that Secretary
Morton will not be prosecuted for vio-
lating the anti-rebate law while he was
an official Of the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe railroad. Neither will any of
the general officers Of that company.
Because President Roosevelt declined
to permit such prosecution. Judson
Harmon and Frederick n. Judson, spe-
cial counsel employed by the govern
ment to prosecute the Santa Fe COM
pany, withdrew from the case.
.Not . Shred of Evidence"
President Roosevelt decided he could
not proceed against Paul Morton and
other Santa Fee officials because he said
not shred of evidence had been taken
to prove that the general officers of the
Santa Fe had guilty knowledge Of the
violation of the anti-rebate law. In
reaching this decision President Roose-
welt disapproved the recommendation
Of Harmon and Judson. The president
favored prosecution Of the corpora ton
Where the Issue Was Joined.
Harmon and Judson declared there
was plenty of evidence. They declared
that mo immunity from prosecution
can be claimed for any officer by the
company" In reply to letter from
Attorney General Moody favoring the
prosecution Of the corporation Harmon
and Judson said that great corpora
tons cannot be imprisoned and that
punishment by fine is not only made
quate, but reaches the real culprits
only lightly, if at all. The evils with
which they were confronted, they said
were corporate in name. but individ-
ual in fact, and they stated epigram-
matically that guilt is always personal
This difference of opinion ended in
Harmon and Judson withdrawing from
the case.

CAUSE IA STILL IN DOUBT


take a. to Lights
AS to who is responsible for the
open switch which was the cause of
the wreck the railroad officials are still
uncertain. They believe that the wreck
is the result of either a maniac who
wanted to see wreck of such q fast
train or some person bent upon re-
venge. A careful examination Of the
switch shows that it was in perfect
condition. Detectives are working on
the case. Irainmen are of the opin-
ion that the crew. of the Twentieth
Century was deceived by a second
white light 100 feet beyond the switch
which was open, but while travelling
at such fast speed were unable to
gauge the distance and mistook the
second light for the first one.
w. H. Marshall, general manager Of
the Lake Shore, believes the speed OF
the train was not contributory cause
to the wreck. He said that other Lake
Shore trains travel through Mentor at
speed equal to that attained by the
Twentieth Century Wednesday night,
which was not, Marshall said, above
the rate of sixty miles an hour. The
schedule for the train called for a speed
of fifty-seven miles an hour at that
point. The wreck had no effect on
the sale of tickets for the same train
last night, the full quota allotted to
this city having been sold long before
the time Of the trains departure.

Heroine to ne Educated.

An Asheville, North Carolina, dis.
patch says that for saving the lives OF
a score of passengers and preventing a
wreck by tagging train with her red
petticoat, Mamie Gibson, eleven years
old, bare-footed mountain girl. has
received a reward from the Southern
railway, and 1t is just what Mamie had
said that she wanted most, an educa.
tion.
She has received letter from the
company, agreeing to give her col.
lege education and to see that she is
we'll provided for.
Mamie lives in little mountain hht
with her father and mother in the
Black mountains. A big slide occurred
on the mountain while she was at homo
alone. She ran down the railroad track
waving her red petticoat. A heavy
train was stopped by her ten feet from
where the mountain had caved in. Be
low was an abyss several thousand
feet deep.

Drum 10 prummed Out.

NJ. Maurice Berteaux, the minister
of war. intends to suppress drums in
the French army. The decision meets
the support of such eminent military
authorities as General Faure-Bibuet,
former military governor of Paris, who
says drummers are useless in battle,
since they carry only revolvers.
whereas buglers are armed with rifles,
which they can use in fray. He adds
that the drum. in modern armies. is an
anachronism and should be abolished.
In spite of the sentimental pang its
disappearance may cause. 1t is inter
esting to recall how much the late
General Boulanger's popularity arose
from his re-establishing the use of the
drum. which a preceding minister OF
war had abolished.

down South, comes an enthusiastic let
ter about Postum:
II was In very delicate health suf-
fering from indigestion and nervous
trouble SO severe that l could hardly
sleep. The doctor ordered me to- dis
continue the use of the old kir,d Of
coffee, which was like poison to me,
producing such extreme disturbance
that could not control myself. But
such was my love for 1t that could
not get my own consent to give it up
for some time. and continued to suffer,
till my father one day brought home q
package Of Postum Food Coffee.
II had the new food drink carefully
prepared according to directions, and
gave 1t fair trial. 1t proved to have
a rich flavor and made healthy.
wholesome and delightful drink. To
my taste the addition OF cream great
ly improves it.
my health began to improve as
soon as the drug effect of the old cof-
fee was removed and the Postum Cot
fee had time to make its influence felt.
My nervous troubles were speedily re-
lieved and the sleep which the old cof-
fee drove from my pillow always came
to soothe and strengthen me after
had drunk Postum-in a very short
time l began to sleep better than
had for years before. l have now used
Postum Coffee for several years and
like 1t better and nnd 1t more bench
cial than when first began. 1t is an
