Picturesque Colored Roustabout
Fast Disappearing From Mis-

Clinton. July 27.-Steamboat men
say the black roustabout will soon be
thing of the past on the upper Mis-
sissippi. His disappearance means the
removal of one of the most distln-
guished characteristics of the river
traffic. once highly important, now in
consequential so far as freight bust
ness is concerned.
Only three boats on the Mississippi
running north of ST. Louis have black
crews. These are the Saint Paul. inc
Sidney and the Dubuque. The Quin-
CIV. the fourth of the big Diamond Jo
steamers, lies partially submerged near
Trempealeau, Wis, where she sank re-
Gently.
The decadence OF the freight traffic
is responsible for the gradual disap-
pearance of the negro roustabout.
Heretofore. and even during the past
five years. stops of from one hour to
three were made at Clinton, Daven>
port, Dubuque, Rock Island Winona,
Cassvilie, Lacrosse land other impor-
tant cities along the Mississippi. which
time was needed to transfer freight
from the Diamond 10 boats to the
warehouses on the river bank. Now
the packets do not remain at the land
ings more than ten or fifteen minutes,
thirty at the most. The time sched-
ules of the steamers have been reduced
proportionately and two boats now
running between st. Paul and ST. Louis
each make round trip every week.
With this cutting down of time has
come a revival of passenger traffic on
the upper Mississippi, and the Dia-
mond 10 boats are carrying thousands
of tourists to the twin cities of Minne-
sofa, Minneapolis and ST. Paul, and
the lake regions of that state. The
impetus which passenger business
gained during the year of the ST. Louis
exposition has not diminished, and the
Diamond 10 line has future as a pas
senger line even if the railroads par
alleling the Mississippi have despoiled
it of its freight traffic.

Dubuque, July 27.-What promises
to be most sensational legal battle
for separate maintenance has been be-
gun in the Denver courts by attorneys
for Mrs. Katherine Garfield, of Du-
buque, who asks the court to secure
for her $4,000 from her husband, one
of the wealthy mine owners of Col
orado.
The story of the woman's life reads
like romance touched with tragedy.
Twenty years ago the woman, then
the young mother of six small children.
was forsaken at Dyersville, this state,
by her husband. George Garfield, who
sold the little family property over her
head, and leaving her absolutely PEN
niiess, with no means of support, went
to Colorado and engaged in mining.
Nothing was heard of Garfield for
years and the wife and mother strug-
gled on as best she could, doing little
here and little there to feed and
ciothe her little children. Time passed
on and no word came from the father
The little boys and girls grew to man
hood and womanhood and the mother
moved to Dubuque in order to give her
children better advantages, and to fit
them to be useful men and women. A
better fate was in store for her. and
when her son. William Garfield, of this
city, had reached maturity. his mother
ceased all active endeavor and has
lived at his home in comfort and hap
piness.
Recently, as a result of the mining
boom which has reached this place, a
mining engineer hailing from Colorado,
visited Dubuque. He met members of
the family, and on learning of the re-
lationship with Garfield, the wealthy
owner Of the Railroad Boy mine Of
Colorado, Immediately set about i'm
forming them of Canfelds good for
tune. The latter was just about to
close a deal for the transfer Of the
property for $4,000 Mrs. Garfield
upon learning of this, Immediately
started suit asking a separate main
tenance of $4,000. T. j. Fitzpatrick, Of
this city, has been retained as her legal
adviser, and Attorney Reddin, of Col
orado. is looking after her interests
there. A preliminary hearing will take
place in Denver today, when an in
junction restraining Garfield from dis
posing of the property will be issued.
The family are prominently connected

DIDN'T BELIEVE.
That Coffee Was the Real Trouble,

Some people founder around and
take everything that's recommended,
but finally find that coffee is the real
cause OF their troubles. An Oregon
man says:
For % years I was troubled with
my stomach. l was u steady coffee
drinker but didn't suspect that as the
cause. 1 took almost anything which
someone else had been cured with, but
to no good. 1 was very bad last sum-
mer and could not work at times.
"On Dec. 2, 1902, l was taken so
bad that the doctor said l could not
live over "a hours at the most and
l made all preparations to die. l could
hardly eat anything, everything dis
tressed me and was weak and sick all
over. When in that condition coffee
was abandoned and was put on Pos
tum, the change in my feelings came
quickly after the drink that was pois-
onin,g me was removed.
1.-The pain and sickness fell away
from me and I began to get we'll day
by day, so I stuck to it until now 1
am we'll and strong again, can eat
heartily, with no headache, heart trou-
BILE or the awful sickness of the old
coffee days. I drink all wish Of Pos
tum without any harm and enjoy it
immensely.
'1'his seems like strong story but
I would refer you to the First National
Bank, The Trust Banking Company,
or any merchant of Grants Pass, Ore.
in regard to my standing, and 1 will
send a sworn statement of this if you
wish. You can also use my name"

Still there are many who persistent
ly fool themselves by saying Coffee
don't hurt me-" A ten days trial Of
Postum in its place will tell the truth
and many times save life. There's a
reason"
