Greatly Loved Confederate Of
ficer Died at 5:35 p. m.
Was Aware That Death Approached
and the End Was Peaceful
and Painless.
THE FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS.


eph Wheeler, the famous Confeder-
ate cavalry leader and a brigadier
general in the United States army
since the war with Spain, died at
5:35 yesterday afternoon at the home
of his sister, Mrs. Sterling Smith of
Brooklyn, aged sixty-nine.
II has not yet been decided where
the body will be inferred. but prob
ably in the Arlington National ceme-
terry near Washington.
Gen. Wheeler was taken i'll six
days ago. He contracted cold
which developed into pleurisy and
pneumonia. From the first his age
told against him, but the family did
not give up hope until last night,
when the disease was found TO have
affected both lungs.
He seemed to know death was APP
preaching. and though too weak to
speak, he succeeded in giving signs
of recognition and encouragement
to his children. Later the general
sank into a peaceful slumber and at
the request of the doctors the family
then at the bedside quietly withdrew
from the sick mans side. The
general was never again more than
semi-conscious. He fingered and
passed away quietly.
The passing of Gen. Joe Wheeler
was sad news to the south. where he
was loved and hoIored perhaps more
than any other man.
Not only in Alabama, where he
claimed citizenship, but all through
the south, the people feel that they
have lost noble citizen, a friend,
almost a brother. Truly his whole
life has been devoted to their cause,
both as soldier, statesman and citi-
zen.
Chiefly as a soldier is he known to
fame, and few soldiers can show a
record more grandly marked by
courage faithfulness and that cool,
unerring judgment which comes only
to the soldier born, and is never by
any chance or requirement.
He was soldier in Maxico when
little more than a boy in years, and
first lieutenant OF artillery in the
Confederate army April 3. 1861,
when he was 25 years old. Septem-
Der 4 he was made colonel of the
Nineteenth Alabama infantry; April
'62 he commanded brigade at Shi-
!oh, and it was here that he received
the title of "Fighting Joe," which
has clung to him all through his life.
He was at Green River. Mumfords-
Vile and Perryville, fighting all the
time. October 80 was made briga-
dier-general 1t was he who met
Rosecrano' advance upon Murfrees-
boro and Chattanooga; he was at
Chickamauga, at the siege OF Knox
Vile, and at Mission Ridge and Look
out Mountain. He figured in Sher-
mans march and at Pickett's Mill.
end the Confederate retreat across
the Chattahoochie. He defended
Macon, Augusta and Savannah, and
in 1866 was appointed lieutenant
general. April goth he bade fare
well to the army. having commanded
in more than 200 battles. Then he
turned his attention to the matters
of peace, and of serving his people
in their new needs.
But he was not destined to lay
down his arms yet, and while he was
representing them in congress. there
came another call for help and III
1898 he was found again fighting
the Spaniards, doing valiant work in
Cuba. Gen. Shafter recognized his
ability, as he was compelled to do.

tion everywhere.

NympathetIc.

Among our circle of friends there
was very warm supporter Of the
S. P. c.. A., who, though earnest and
sincere, sometimes bored by overzeal.
We set traps to lead her into an ad-
mission Of the evil in animal nature,
but she always managed to make out
a good case for her d;-mb friends.
One day we felt that we at least had
case in which she could have no pos
sible sympathy for the animal. It
was dreadful story, published in a
newspaper Of baby who had been lit
orally eaten alive by a large and
ferocious cat. We gave her the clip
ping and watched with satisfaction the
tears gather in her eyes as she read
We've got her now!" we murmured
triumphantly. Finally she looked up,
and we all held our breath to listen
to her comment. She spoke in heart
broken tones. Think" she said, "how
hungry the poor cat must have been!"

Ever Hear of "Scotty" and His Record
Breaking Ride?

The story, briefly told, is this: Wal,
ter Scott, the Death Valley gold miner
made the trip from Los Angeles to
Chicago last summer on a special
train over the Santa Fe' in less than
i46 hours. That whirlwind train cost
him more than $4,000. 1t was the
fastest long distance run over noun
itains and plains ever made on any
American railway. 1t demonstrated
beyond dispute that the Santa Fe
track, equipment and employees are of
the dependable kind. Probably YOU
iwouldn't care to ride so fast. You pre-
fer the luxury of our three trains from
Utah and Colorado to Everywhere
East and Southwest.

MES that the noon hour will find
man on our breakfast huskier and
with stronger heartbeat and clearer
working brain than he ever had on
the old diet.
Suppose, if you have never really
made a move for absolutely clean
health that pushes you along each day
with spring in your step and a re-
serve vlgor in muscle and brain that
makes the doing of things a pleasure,
you join the army of plain old COM
mon sense" and start in now Then
after you have been 2 or weeks on
the Grape-Nuts training you write a
statement of how you used to be and
how you are now. The simple facts
will interest others and surprise your
self. We never publish names except
on permission, but we often tell the
facts in the newspapers, and when
requested give the names by private
letter.
There is plenty of time to get per-
sonal experience with Grape-Nuts and
write sensible, truthful letter to be
sent in with the list of words, as the
contest does not close until April Goth,
1906. So start in as soon as you like
to building words, and start in using
Grape-Nuts. Cut this statement out
and keep the letters Y-I-O-Grape-Nuts
before you and when you write your
letter you will have some reason to
write on the subject, "Why l Owe
Grape-Nuts."
Remember 331 persons will win
prizes, which will be awarded in an
exact and just manner as soon as the
1906. Every contestant will be sent
printed list of names and addresses of
winners on application, in order to
have proof that the prizes are sent as
agreed. The company is well known
all over the world for absolute fidelity
to its agreements and every single one
of the 331 winners may depend on re-
ceiving the prize won.
Many persons might feel it useless
to contest, but when one remembers
the great number of prizes-(33D-
the curiosity of seeing how many
words can really be made UP evening
after evening and the good, natural
fun and education in the competition,
it seems worth the trial; there is no
cost, nothing to lose and a fine oppor-
tunity to win one of the many boxes
Of gold or greenbacks.
We make the prediction that some
who win prize of gold or greenbacks
Will also win back health and strength
worth more to them than a wagon full
of money prizes.
Tnere are no preliminaries, cut out
this statement and go at it, and send
In the list and letter before April 30th,
1906. to Postum Cereal Co., Ltd, Bat
tie Creek, Mich, and let your name

20 people making the greatest num-

10 people will each win one box con-

800 people will each win a box con-

person who makes the highest number
of words over all contestants will re-
ceive box containing $4,000 in gold.
1t is really a most fascinating bit of
fun to take up the list evening after
evening and see how many words can
be added.
A few rules are necessary for abso-
lutte fair play.
Any word authorized by Webster's
dictionary will be counted, but no
name of person. Both the singular
and plural can be used, as for instance
grape" and grapes"
The letters in Grape Nuts"
may be repeated in the same word.
Geographical names authorized by
Webster will be counted
Arrange the words in alphabetical
classes, all those beginning with A to-
gether and those beginning with r to
come under E, etc.
When you are writing down the
words leave some spaces, in the A. r..
and other columns, to fill in later as
new words come to you, for they will
spring into mind every evening.
1t Is almost certain that some con
testants will tie with others. In such
cases prize identical in value and
character with that offered in that
class shall be awarded to each. Each
one will be requested to send with the
list of words a plainly written letter
