Senator Cu1lom of Illinois, chairman of
the senate committee on foreign affairs,
said the ambassador shows the number
of Germans in -erazil to be insignificant,

Baron sternburg states that sc per
cent OF the emigrants from Germany
normally come to the United States
where they lose their German citizen
ship and soon become identified with
American institutions. He says the
same is true of the small number Of
Germans who go to Southern Brazil. He
denounces as untrue reports circulated
that Germany is making every possible
effort to divert emigration to South
America and quotes figures in order to
show how limited the activities are of

A NEW SHORT ORDER
Restaurant and Ice Cream ParIor at
100 East Sixth Street.

On February "a, this year. Mrs. A.
K. Purviance and her daughter Miss
Lena, announced in the Journal that
they would open a new dining hall al
1O9 East Sixth street. Their success
has been almost marvellous. 1t is only
2 months and a half since the doors
were opened and they have had to in
crease their accommodations double,
having put in twice the number of ia
bles and chairs they had on their open
ing day. During the time they have
been in business they have served over
q, 900 meals. And now comes the de-
mand for a short order counter. Mrs.
Purviance is equal to the occasion and
has gone to a great deal Of expense in
fitting up special fixtures for this de-
partment which viii be located in the
front of the large room at the left Of
the entrance. It is MIS-. Purviance's in
tention to make this department second
to none in the city, and short orders
will be served at any time IN the day
and up till midnight. Another feature
had been added lately and that is
the cooking. Mrs. Purviance has sue
cceded in getting two japanese cooks,
who are certainly artists in their line,
and are the fastest and best cooks in
Topeka today. Realizing the necessity
of an ice cream parlor in that loca-
ton Mrs. Purviance has separated from
the main part Of the restaurant by a

STERNBURG is WRATHY.
Germany Not Trying to Divert Emil
grafton to Brazil.

Washington, May 15.-Much com
ment has been provoked in diplomatic
and congressional circles by a maya
zine article written by Baron Stern
burg, the German ambassador. in
which he denounces stories concern
ing the German peril in southern
Brazil, and quotes official German sta
tistics showing the number Of Ger
mans who have gone to Brazil and the
size of the German contingent now in
that country. According to Baron
Sternburg's figures. the total number
of Germans who went to Brazil from
1871 to 1904 was 54,719. In the same
time the number of Germans who
came to the United States was $780,
1872. For the same period the num-
Der OF German emigraHts to all South
American countries except Brazil was
1854. In 1904 the number Of Ger
man emigrants to Brazil was 355, and
in no year between 1888 and 1904
did the number OF Germans entering
Brazil exceed S21. The total number
of native Germans in Brazil at pres
ent is given by German authorities at
10000, while the number of German
subjects IN Brazil is 5000.

Therefore Mr.. oliver has been
obliged to send out another letter to
the governors stating that for the pres
ent the department will be able to care
completely only for one regiment of
infantry, one troop of cavalry and one
battery of artillery from each state
providing these with subsistence,
transportation and pay. If the gov
errors desire to send more troops than
these the government can provide only
for their transportation.
AS there appears to be a misunder-
standing as to the cost of rations, the
governors have been informed that
the field ration is limited to % ana the
travel ration to 40 cents.

Gentlemen-We are in receipt of yours of
the 3rd inst and will state that while we are
not technically qualified to pass judgment on
the merits of your mill, compared with that of
others, the writer has been through and in
spected during the past forty-three years
large number of mills, including the new
Curator Mill, your property at Topeka. We
found everything working so satisfactory and
smoothly, and the quality of -four produced
from what we considered miserable lot of
wheat equal to that of mills manufacturing
wheat weighing, in our Judgment, about ten
pounds to the measured bushel more than you
we're using.
Briefly, in conclusion, the result of our in
spection of your mill, compared with that of
others, we decided to give the Wolff company,
of Chambersburg, Penn, through their repre-
sentative, Mr.. M. E. Rozell, the contract for
our thousand barrel mill, which we are about
to erect, and without competition.
We consider your mill one of the. most CON
venient in the United States. sTHf

To the one who walks in "a solitary
way' the development of other peo-
pies children is an interesting and in
structive study. Children are SD
natural; they form into such pictur-
esque groups, they can so readily and
easily adapt themselves to the restric-
tions of life and find outlets for their
vivacity in new and unexpected chan
nels.
A happy childhood seems to- be
the natural course for the little child,
but, considering how many causes
unite from birth to hinder it, it seems
inevitable that offenses should come to
them, but not to- those from whom
they come by ''caprices.'
No wonder they fear they have no
souls when the aching spot comes so
early-true, they are provoking, but
not often at the start wilfully, be-
cause they early learn the lessons of
shaken trust, of broken faith.
''I'm not a baby" growled Donald,
savagely, "I'm not baby any more,
I'm boy.' And the childish lips that
trembled bajbyishly even while they
made this stalwart assertion, spoke
the truth. For doubt and unbelief
have no place in a baby's world, and
Donald's eyes were looking dimly into
universe Of shaken trust, of broken
faith. A lost trust in his mother, his
