MRS. MACKAY WINS.
Elected School Trustee of RosIyn by
Heavy Vote.

New York, Aug. AIRS. Clarence H.
Mackay was elected school trustee at
Roslyn. Her running mate, John F.
Remsen, a livery stable keeper, beat her
one vote, SO that her victory was not
quite unqualified. DR.. P. N. Legs, the
third candidate in the two out of three
elections was nowhere.
math, for DIR. John Bogart, the presi-
ager of DR.. Legs campaign, has dispu-
ted the election on the ground of ir-
regularity The campaign was full of
wire pulling. The final vote was. Rem
sen, 254; Mackay, 253; Legs, SO.
The election was one of startling sur
prises for this little village. In the
first place, before 1 o'clock the towns
record for a school election was wreck
ed and a new one made. The heaviest
vote cast at any previous election was
$50. By 1 o'clock 200 had voted, and
still they came.
All Women Vote for Mrs. Mackay.
Altogether, So women voted, practi-
caIly all of whom cast their ballots for
Mrs. Mackay.
The climax was reached when Mrs.
June Verify, the Oldest inhabitant, "a
wears old, grandmother of the constable,
drove up to the polls. She never had
done such an unheard of thing as voting
before. But her grandson had been busy
with her for a week, and the old lady
had promised to vote ''if it were not too
hot"
.Ars. Mackay, however, did not vote,

but heard the returns at Saratoga. She
was confident throughout.
The pot has been seething some time.
1t was given out after Mrs. Mackay's
annual lawn party to the children in
Iais region that she was to be can
didate for one OF the two places on the
board of education.
Says School Is Back Number.
Mrs. Mackay had a great many ideas
about the Roslyn school, in most of
board, upon which DR.. Legs has sat,
time out of mind. She believed the
school was without adequate sanitary
conVeniences, that the instruction was
behind the times, especially in the mat
ter of manual training, and the town
ought to have high school instruction.
To impress these views of the peo-
pie of Roslyn she. had an expert come
down and look over the field and tell
the school board that she was right.
At one time Mrs Mackay issued a
circular which the other side criticised
on the grounds that it's grammar was
poor. Mrs. Mackay replied by blast
| from the pen of Commissioner Down.
| ing. The meeting of the old board of
=, trustees on the night before election
slzzled and boiled.
Legs Only Active Candidate.
| Mrs. Mackay retired to Saratoga
and Remsen sat in the door of his
| livery stable. Not so DR.. Legs. He
stationed himself at the door of the
school house where the polls were set
up and handed cut to every one who
passed a ballot marked for himself
and Mrs. Mackay. DR.. Legs is an old
gentleman with benevolent spectaeles
and long white beard and mustache,
which he pulled violently all day
whenever he saw any of the opposi-
ton voters driving up in Remsen's free
| rig.
DR.. Jogart lodged his protest on two
accounts. In the first place, Mrs.
Mackay had been called Katherine
Mackay'' on the Legs ballots, while on
the Remsen- Mackay ballots she was
down as Mrs. Clarence Mackay."

Lawrence, Kan, Aug. 4.-The Gazette
says:
The stockholders of the Kansas City,
Olathe, Lawrence and Topeka electric
line railway held a meeting here Thurs
day. All business of the company was
brought up to date, and arrangements
were made for pushing the work of con-
struction rapidly.
You may say on my authority said
Eben Baldwin, that the road will be
built. Just how soon we will reach
Lawrence of course we can not say at
present, but we will be in Olathe in
the very near future. Everything has
been completed in the matters of ar
rangements so far as the line to Olathe
is concerned. The road goes out of
Westport, and down the old Santa Fe
trail and folks will be riding in on it in
a very few months. After that we will
come to Lawrence as soon as we can.
The plans are perfected and the money
is ready"
The directors of the company are: A.
Monroe Eben Baldwin, j. N. Roberts,
A F. Hunt Jr., J. M. Belknap, and F.
O'Flaherty. The material for the Olathe
part of the line is already at hand, and
it is the intention to complete that part
of the road before fall. Next year, at
the latest, Lawrence will have electric
connections with the country between
here and Olathe, and we will be able to
ride into Kansas City if we want to on
the overland.

a large capital said Secretary of State
Burrow, will bid for the state funds.
It would hardly pay a small bank with
a capital of $4,000 or less to buy
bonds in order to secure a state de-
post. Good bonds pay 4 per cent.
The state pays but per cent, and
this would mean an income of per

Coffee Acts the Jonah and Will
Come Up.

A clergyman who pursues his noble
calling in country parish in Iowa.
tells of his coffee experience:
MY wife and 1 used coffee regularly
for breakfast, frequently for dinner
and occasionally for supper-always
the very best quality-packag coffee
never could find place on our table.
In the spring of 1896 my wife was
taken with violent vomiting which we
had great difficulty in stopping.
1T seemed to come from coffee
drinking but we could not decide.
In the following July, however. she
was attacked a second time by the
vomiting. 1 was away from home fill
ing an appointment at the time and
on my return [ found her very low:
she mad literally vomited herself al
most to death, and it took some DAYS
to quiet the trouble and restore her
stomach.
Il had also experienced the same
trouble, but not SO violently. and had
relieved it, each time, by a resort to
medicine.
ned me that the use of coffee was AT
the bottom of our troubles, and so we
stopped 1t forthwith and took on
Postum Food Coffee. The old gvnnn-
toms of disease disappeared and dur
ing the 8 years that we have beer
using Postum instead of coffee we
nave never mad recurrence of the
vomiting We never weary of Postum
to which we know we owe our good
health. This is a simple statement OF
facts" Name given by Postum Com.

The highest price paid was $55.50 per
ton This is within $3.50 of the high
price of last winter. In the past thirty
DAVIS the price has advanced about $40
per ton. The increase is attributed to
a curtaiIed output and the producers
partial success in excluding foreign
