A Dramatic Scene.

The most dramatic scene ever wit
messed in Westminster hall was that
trial in Henry Wills reign when $50
men and IL women appeared before
the king and some of his great mobiles
with ropes around their necks on a
charge of being concerned ia the rising
of the prentices on the previous May
day. Fortunately they had good friends
in three queens-Katherine, Mary of
France and Margaret of Scotland
who begged for their pardon on their
knees, and when Henry at last yielded
to such supplications the prisoners, it
is said, gave mighty shout for joy,
throwing their halters toward the top
OF the hail." The stage has never pro-
duced anything to rival that dramatic
moment.-London Graphic

The Rcignfng Princess.

Every girl who has married and
moved to another town learns in course
Of time how it feels to be a monarch
who is deprived of his kingdom. She
is a princess before marriage and has
the front room upstairs. She marries,
moves away, her sister next in years
becomes the reigning monarch, and
when the married woman returns home
on a visit some years later she finds
herself relegated to back bedroom,
with her sister, the princess, on a
throne in the front room.-Atchison
Globe.

We are informed that nothing new
concerning the State bank has develop
ed and the institution is still in the
hands of the commissioner of banking.
Mr. o X Roe, who suffered stroke of
apoplexy last week, we are glad to hear,
is steadily improving and in another
week, perhaps, will be able to sit up. He
is regaining his speech and it is hoped
that complete recovery will follow.
A telephone message was received
Thursday afternoon from the farm Of
Abner Halvorson in Dunn asking for as
slstance to put ont a fire which was de-
stroying the outbuildings. Mr. Halvor
son and his brothers, who reside in the
immediate vicinity, were all at the coun
ty fair. A very large barn, costing not
less than $1,000 had been burned to the
ground and valuable steer persisted in
the flames. How the blaze originated
no one could tell. When first discovered
the women on the place removed the
frantic horses and other live stock but
were unable to save the steer and con-
siderable farm machinery stored in the
building. Many tons of hay were also
lost.
The First National bank now owns it's
home, deal being concluded couple
of days ago by which the bank bought
the old opera house block from the Nor
ris estate, B E Wait and DR. Ell A Chip
man, the consideration being $4,000.
The building, which is one of the largest
and most substantial in the city, was
built in 1867 or '6S by tie then Senator
j Fl Williams at a cost, it is said, of not
far from the sum which both building
and lot now brought. Until the erection
of the city hall, it contained the only
large entertainment hall in the city, but
the probabilities are that this part of the
building will be remodeled and divided
into two stories. The deal was made by
the bank in accordance with the policy
of President Leander Choate who be.
lieves in every bank owning the quarters
which it occupies. The corner is one Of
the best in the city, and for banking
purposes it is unexcelled.

sought to warn him by incessant blow

GAINESVILLE

Constable A X Cults, for forty years
an officer in this city, died on Thursday
last. Alonzo King Cults was born in
Goshen, New Hampshire, on Jan 81,
1926. He was one of five brothers, one
of whom Rufus Cults, VINO resides on
farm not far from the city-survives.
Coming to GAINESVILLE in 1874, he was
married on June %, two years later, to
Elizabeth A w Goodrich. There we're
six children, five daughters and son,
only two of whom are now living. Her
bert and Anna Cults and the faithful
wife and mother compose the little fam
lily that is left to mourn his loss For
nearly forty years the deceased had been
on duty as constable and he was regard
ed as the best man who ever filled the
office in GAINESVILLE He had served al
most continuously since the spring of
1869 and was elected from the second
ward in the spring of 1905.
During the past week there has been
a decided fall in the wholesale price of
sugar and the result is that the Rock
County Sugar company has lost an op-
portunity of making several thousand
dollars. Refusal on their part to let go
when sugar had reached around the 81
cent price has resulted in their losing
profit that is placed at the $4,000 mark.
The wholesale price of sugar has been
steadily on the increase until the past few
days when 1t started to 60 the other way
and yesterday it was qu oted in the mar
ket as being worth $3.50 per hundred
pounds. With fully 100000 pounds on
hand in the local warehouse it can be
readily seen what the profit would have
been to the GAINESVILLE factory had Capt
Davidson been willing to close out. But
instead he was waiting for the cent
price which failed to realize.
At star chamber session in munich
pal court Saturday several possible wit
nesses from Edgerton were required to
tell what they knew regarding the char
acter of the place in Indian Ford where
one Lille Cook and others make their
habitation. Information received by the
district attorney had led him to suspect
that disorderly house was being oper-
ated there and that intoxicants had also
been sold at various times without
license. But one witness was examined
at time and no spectators were ad-
mitted. The majority of the nine men
who we're closely questioned displayed a
remarkable ignorance. Some of them
are believed to have laid themselves
open to an action for perjury.

of the late secretary to Gov. Magoon. Samuel Hirsch. who died of yellow fe- yer at Panama.
 George c. Matlock, of Louisville, Ky, superintendent ia dock at Cristobal. who was among the passengers of the Advance. said:
 .Things are very bad at the isthmus. The diseases prevalent are measles. black measles. small pox. yellow fever, chagres fever and malaria and there was one case of bubonic plague. The dead train runs from Colon to Mon key Hill cemetery. a mile and half south of Colon. always once. and some- times as many as fourteen times day. and that sometimes has as many as four coff1ns aboard. In fact there Is so much yellow foyer about that they keep ten graves always ready for cases of emergency.
 The working clerical force on the isthmus Is about ninety per cent short. One district superintendent I know has work for seventeen clerks and has so far only five. The government seems to be delaying the paying on or the men. Forty-one of my mates were waiting for their money in order to catch this steamer, but only six got 1t in time to sail

 The supply of nurses.' she said. "is beginning to fall off, and by fall the hospital at Panama will be very short1 handed.

FROM THE EDITOR. He Forgot He Had q Stomach.

Talking of food. there is probably no professional man subjected to greater, more wearing mental strain than the responsible editor of a modern newspa- per.
 To keep his mental faculties con- stantly in good working order. the ed itor must keep his physical powers up to the highest rate of efficiency. Noth- ing will so quickly upset the whole system as badly selected food and a disordered stomach. It therefore fol- lows that he should have right food, which can be readily assimilated. and which furnishes true brain nourish- ment.
 My personal experience in the use of Grape Nuts and Postum Food Cof- fec" writes a Philadelphia editor. 50 exactly agrees with your advertised claim as to their merits that any fur ther exposition in that direction would seem to be superhuous, They have benefited me SO much. however, during the i've years that have used them. that I do not feel justified in withhold ing my testimony.
 "Gen sral high living with all that the expression implies as to a generous table. brought about indigestion, in my case. with restlessness at night, and lassitude in the morning. accompanied by various pains and distressing sen sations during working hours. The doctor diagnosed the condition as ca tarrh of the stomach. and prescribed various medicines. which did me no good. I finally threw physics to the dogs gave up tea and coffee and heavy meat dishes and adopted Grape-Nuts and Postum Food Coffee as the chief articles of my diet.
 q can conscientiously say. and wish to say 1t with all the emphasis possi- ble to the English language. that they have benefited me as medicines never did and more than any other food that ever came on my table. My experience is that the Grape-Nuts food has stead fed and strengthened both brain and nerves to a most positive degree. How 1t does t, I cannot say. but I know that after breakfasting on Grape Nuts food enc actually forgets he has a stomach, let alone stomach trouble.' It is, in my opinion. tte most beneficial as we'll as the most economical food on the market. and has absolutely no rival " Name given by Postum Co, Battle Creek, Mich.
