A REAR A.MIRAL
Of the Navy Gives Some points on
 Coffee

A naval oficer of all men has a chance to become an expert on coffee and when he talks about it. naturally knows somewhat of his subject.
 certain famous (now retired) Rear Admiral, whose name can be given by mail on request, says:
 T have travelled this wide world over from the Arctic to the Antarctic, and have drank the best coffees' ever grown on this continent, or in the East, made by the best chexs and am an expert cof-
 "of late I noticed that there was something wrong in my dietary and that I was suffering from dizziness im- mediately after my coffee. l was be- coming sadly constipated, something unusual for me. I was averse to think ing that coffee was giving me so much inconvenience. but I thought perhaps 1t would be best to reduce its strength, but it made no perceptible change in my feelings.
 try Postum Food Coffee, a preparation that often laughed at, as I read its advertisements. so purchased a small package, and followed the directions explicitly and prepared my first cup. was surprised to find that so far as taste was concerned it was right! be- sides it had a satisfactory feeling. The next morning l found that my bowels were moved normally. and as In days of life. Next thing noticed that when I sat down to my morning paper and later to my mail that my head and mind were much clearer than they had been for a long time. and had no feeling of deprSssioE and lassitude. No one could have made me believe that a change from coffee to so simple liquid food could have produced such a rapid and marked change in a persons con- dition. It Is now about three months since I began to use Postum. I have never hankered after coffee, do not want to see 1t. for I am In excellent condition, no constipation. no indlges- tion, no dizziness. no dullness, and in fact, feel like a new man and l attrib- ute It to the change wholly. and I may say that feel stronger than did three months ago and at my age, 76, strength is a much needed thing; in short, since I abandoned coffee am better natured, better conditioned, and better pleased than have been for long time. The experiment made with POstum cost me fifteen cents, the beneficial results obtained cannot be calculated in dollars ana cents. It takes a little more tima to make Postum Coffee than ordinary coRee, but 1 count the difference in time as uaught co15p4red with the henantt ratrez think I anau trp

MITCHELL NOT AFRAID
SAYS HE WELCOMES MOST SEARCH
 ING INVESTIGATION.
Never in His Life, He Declares, Has He COnversed With Krlbs About Lands or Other Business
 Matters,

Washington. FsH 2.--senator John 1T. Mitchell of oregon, who wss in- dicted by the United States grand jury at Portland yesterday for bribery, in connection with the land frauds inc vestigation has made a statement in which he says he welcomes the most searching investigation of the charges against him. Senator Mitchell says:
 "of the final outcome have not the slightest fear, but In the mean time assert in the most positive manner that I never in my life had any con- versation with Frederick R. Kribs in reference to any lands or any other business. am equally positive in the statement that I never at any time or place received from Frederick R.. Kribs or from any other person for him, directly or indirectly, any check or cheeks for any amount whatever, either en a Roseburg bank or any oth- CT bank in consideration for any ser- vice rendered or to be rendered by me as Senator or otherwise, or for any purpose whatever.
 T further assert that Frederick R. Kribs never in his life contracted with me for the services of A. H. Tanner and myself or agreed with me to pay for services alleged to have been ven- dered In part by me in appearing be- fore and persuading Binger Hermann. Commissioner of the General Land Of- flee. to make special or recommend the issue of any patents, nor do I believe he ever made any such contract with A. H. Tanner for the reason that by the articles of our co-partnerghip 1t was expressly stipulated that 1 could not be in any manner interest in any departmental business. But as to what business matters Judge Tanner may have had, if any. with Krips, Judge Tanner can himself speak as I have no knowledge of them whatever nor do know there were any,

Whipping Post for Wife Beater.

Washington. Feb 2.-"Every married man who does not support this bill in Congress lays himself open to suspi- cion." This was the statement of Rep resentative Adams (Pa.) ), today before the House Committee on the District of Columbia, in advocacy of his bill establishing a whipping post h the dis trict jail for wife beaters. Mir. Adams said that three years ago when this subject was first brought to his atten- ton he was inclined to treat 1t with levity. Since then he has made the matter a subject of careful study and Is thoroughly in earnest He asserted that a jail sentence made no impress sion on a wife beater.

the House was because of the negro question.
 Referring to Judge Parker. Mir. Baker spoke of him as having been foisted on the party by men like those who supported this subsidy.
 Mir. Baker said that Thomas F. Ryan. went into the Southern States and told vented the Democratic party from win ming fo reight years, saying:
 Come with us and we will deliver the goods"
 Other monopolists of the Democratic party sang the same song and the Southern Democrats listened and be- came responsible for the results of the last election.
 Do you mean to derfounce Judge Parker as a monopoIist?'' asked Mir. Pou SN. O
 T say" responded Mir. Baker '9nat Judge Parker's candidacy was initiated and manipulated by monopolists."
 On a point of order the provision of $45,00o to be paid to the Oceanic Steamship Company for carrying malls to Tahiti was stricken out.
 After protracted debate an amend ment was agreed to allotting $45,0o0 out of the appropriation for transport ing foreign mails. for carrying the mails from San Francisco to Tahiti under contract.
 Mr. Payae tN. Y.). challenged some figures given by Mir. Overstreet regard ing the trade with Cuba and thereby provoked brief discussion of the sub- tect of reciprocity treaties.
 Replying to questions. Mir. Payne openly asserted that he did not know of any country that was ready to make e fair and equitable reciprocity treaty with the Urited States. He would not say. in answer to MT. Finley (S. C.). that all reciprocity treetiess were bad.
 Considering of the postofiice bill was not completed.
 During the day bills were passed as follows:
 Authorizing the Louisiana and Fort Cay Bridge Company to construct . brdige across the Big Sandy niv9r at or near Louisia. Ky. granting a right of way for railroad oh West Noun tain, Hot Springs, reservation ArlSan- sas.

CoNKLIN ANp sIGoURMRY.
The Two Leaderu In Amateur Billiard
 Tournament.

The Two Loaders In Amateur Billt@rd
 Tournament.
 Chicago, Feb. 2.---At the end of the third days play in the amteur billiard tournament for the national champion ship, Charles F. Conklin, of Chicago, and Wilson H. Sigourney of San Fran cisco. are tied for first honor, both having won both games that they have participated in. J. D. Poggenburg, the present champion, is next high man, having won one game and lost none, but there is little likelihood that the New Yorker will return to finish the game that he played against Rein of Chicago. according to the rules of the tournament will be thrown out.
 Tonight's contest between Conklin and Norris was one of the best games so far in the tournament Conklin led all the way. In the second inning he made a run of 53. and although Norris played a fine game the local man man. aged to keep we'll in the lead up to the 27th inning. In this inning Norris, who was nearly, 100 points behind, made run of 66. Norris followed this run with another of IS, and was only 22 points behind his opponent when he fell down on an easy shot. After that Conklin again took control and ran out the game in the 37th inning, the final score being 800 to 262.
 The following is the standing of the
