carried out We're discussed at length.
The directors of the association

ting forth what had heen done. The
report shows that contracts for about
22,000 acres OF land under the ditch
have been signed. The report in eV-
cry way was most satisfactory aud

MIR. Newell informed the directors
as to how the report should he made

the same to the secretary of the in
ierior He directed the gentlemen
TO forward the report at once to
Washington.
He stated that the officials of the
ditch association were to be highly
commended upon the work they had
already accomplished. Faithful work
on the part of the interested parties
was necessary if the ditch was made
a go.
He had many words of encourage
ment to offer. While he was able to
give out no definite information, he
said that an early commencement on
the work of building the canal was
assured.
While the government had an
nounced that work on no new pro-
jects would be taken up during the
present year, Mr.. Newell was ready

times and no man is better informed
regarding the matter. Many ques-
tions were put to him last night. and
the discussion that followed each
question was most interesting and
profitable.
The conference last night with
Mr.. Newell will doubtless result in
much good. His encouragement of
the work was greatly appreciated by
the gentlemen present and the in
and suggestions offered by
the chief engineer will prove OF much |
value.

BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR THE UNIVERSITY
Indications Arc That This Year Will BE Record
Enrollment-Few CHANGES in Faculty.

The prevailing opinion seems to be
that the year 1905-0G at the state uni
versity will be a record-breaker in
point of attendance. Secretary Sloan
has a busy time OF it these days, an
swering correspondence. Many new
students have signifed their intention
to enter the university this year, and
rooms in private families and at east
hall are already in demand. Owing to
the burning of west hall on the Fourth
of July morning, about forty young
men will have to seek rooms else
where. No steps have been taken to-
ward rebuilding the boys dormitory,
and it is possible that it will never be
rebuilt.
There will be little change in the
faculty this year. A head of the
Greek department is to be chosen.

years leave of absence fom the music
department. The vacancy will be sup

GUST THE DEMON.

There is something fairly demoni-
acal in the way coffee sometimes
wreaks it's fiendish malice on those
who use 1t.

coffee, suffered tor some time from
very annoying form of nervousness,
accompanied by most frlsu.lul head
aches. Ii KY own case ...ere was

drew it 70 one SIDE. causing me the
most intense PAIN. We got no relief
from medicine, anc were puzzled as
to what caused The trouble, until
friend suggested that possibly the cof-
fee We drank had something to do
with it and advised that we quit it
and try Postum Coffee.

the day that VIC began to use Postum
We both began 70 improve, and in
very short time both of US were
entirely relieved The nerves became
steady once more, the headaches
ceased, the muscles in the back of my
neck relaxed, my head Strengthened
up and the dreadful pain that had so
punished me while used the old kind
of coffee vanished.
I'VE have never resumed the use of
the old coffee, but relish our Postum
every day as well as we did the
former beverage. And we are de.
lighted to find that we can give it
freely to our children also, something

discussion of the situation it was de-
cided that telephone values had been
placed at point where their taxation
would be out of proportion to other
property of the state, and a reduction
of Is per cent was granted from the
figures which first were fixed.
The assistant superintendent of the
Western Union Telegraph company
appeared and asked for a reduction,
that company having been given fiat

Report OF Vital Statistics for the State

Inc flrst monthly report of the state
vital statistical department has been
made out and shows the returns from
all the counties of the state except
few small ones, which did not get in
reports. presumably on the grounds
that they had nothing to report The
monthly summary of the commissioner
is:
All of the counties have reported the
births, deaths, marriages, divorces and
naturalizations occurring during the
month of July with the following ex-
ceptions: No reports have been re-
ceived from Buffalo and Sully counties.
These counties have very small popu-
lation, and it is possible that there
were no occurrences therein warrant
ing reports. Union county reported the
births and deaths, but did not send
the marriages, divorces and naturali-
cations; the clerk of courts being alb
sent upon a vacation and leaving no
one in charge of his office to make the
report.
Six hundred and twenty seven births
were reported, being l for every 600
OF the white population. There were
$40 male infants and 2S7 females.
Twenty-eight infants were born dead
or died at BIRTH being one in every
twenty-five born
The names of 275 of these were not
given in the birth certificate and will
f"ve to be supplied by the physicians
Within sixty days.
Deaths.
Two hundred and fifty-two deaths
were reported. The average age at
death was thirty-two years. Seventy
children died before attaining the first
year There was one death for each
1870 of the white population. If this
average is maintained throughout the
year it will give us a death rate of
seven per thousand annually.
There was large variety of causes
resulting in death, but the white terror
was far in the lead; 50 died from tu-
berculosis in various forms; from
heart failure, %; died at birth, %;
senility, is; drowned, 13; unknown
cause, 13; accidents other than drown

Looking.
There Is good story told of old
Patrick Green, who has worked at
the Bush stores in Brooklyn for years.
Green's inability to keep up-to-date Is
nothing against him. He is a watch
man and not poet. So when Fore
man Reilly last week gave Green four
pennies and two letters and told the
old man to buy two stamps and paste
one on each letter, he knew that
Green had to have explicit orders, and
would follow them explicitly. He also
admonished the old man to be careful
about putting the two letters in the
box at the corner after the stamps
had been affixed. Green came back In
about ten minutes, his face aglow. He
placed the four pennies in Reilly's
hand and exclaimed:
