DECLARES THERE WAS NO POLITICS
III TRIAL O SECRETARY OF
STATE HOUSER AT MADISON.
EXPECTED THE VERDICT
Mr.. Houser Is Found Not Guilty of At
tempting to Bribe the State In
surance Commissioner.

MADISON, Wis, July 7.-[Special.1-
Considerable speculation is going on here
as to the political results of the Houser
trial completed last nIgnt when the jury
brought II d verdict acquitting the secre-
tary of state of a charge of attempting
to bride Insurance Commissioner Host.
The friends Of Mr.. Houser have con-
tended that this trial would necessarily
hurt his candidacy for denomination and
the outcome made Senator Erear's
friends think that possibly the matter
will injure the candidacy for the sena-
tor for the same office.
Mr.. Host said today:
Mr.. Houser's charge of political con-
spiracy among Senator Frear, myself
and others has no foundation whatever.

ence legislation or any action OF your

regard to same and thank you for the
favor"
Replying to this latter two days later
l related the whole affair and suggested
to Senator Frear that while he had an
nounced his candidacy for secretary of
state the charge might be made that the
incident was brought up at this time to
discredit Mr.. Houser's candidacy,
whereupon Senator Frear said to me
that that would make no difference to
him, that he had a duty to perform as
vestigating committee, and if in per-
jure his own candidacy or be forced to
lay aside his ambition to be secretary of
state, then this ambition would have to
be sacrificed for duty.

Besides the amounts contributed by
unions in other ways, 1T was reported
that the 25 international union had
contributed STAG, 225 direct to the

President Gompers reported on the
question of universal label for all

for the use Of the seal Of the Ameri-

A number of organizations we're
reported favorably disposed and a
large number opposed to the surrend-

label without any other design. The
report will be submitted to the feder-
alton convention at Minneapolis in
November. The complaint made by

QUIET REIGNS In CUBA
Pending the Arrival Of Taft
Party.

Havana, Sept. 18.-The results
thus far of President Palma's order
for the suspension of hostilities have
been that liberal leaders, who hither-
to have had every reason for antici-
pating arrest, are circulating openly
in Havana again and even comforting
with members Of the government with
regard to peace, and such insurgen Is
in the field as have been consulted,
while they express themselves as
agreeable to settling matters AMIGA
bly,, at the same time can not be said
to bode particularly we'll for a
prompt settlement of existing differ
ences.
In the meanwhile Cienfugos is in a
state of seige, communication by tel
egraph 10 being severed, not only in
the direction of Havana, but to San
tiago as we'll. 1t is known that Glen.
fuegos hadn't been attacked up to mid
night Sunday, but what has transpir-
ed since that time is not known here.
All accounts agree that there easily
are 5000 Insurgents few miles
southeast Of Havana, and rumors are
In circulation that they will enter
the city peaceably If they are not
molested, but that they will fight IL
they meet with resistance.
All visitors to the insurgents camp
in Havana province return with the
impression that no attempt will be
made against Havana until the arrival
of Pine Guerrera's force, which now
Is variously reported to be from 90 to
30 miles distant. The general i'm
preston Is that the presence in Ha
vana harbor OF the American cruiser
Denver will not act as deterrent to
such movement, the auxiliary cruis-
or Dixie having gone to Cienfuegos
and the cruiser Des Moines having
gone presumably to another point.
The announcement from Washing
ton that an American vessel of war
will protect British as we'll as Ameri
can interests is taken as applying es-
pecially to Cienfuegos, where the
English owned the Cuban Central
railroad, which has been obliged to
suspend operations and suffered con-
siderable damage TO its property.
The Western railroad, also British
enterprise, is not now suffering spe-
cial damage except in the vicinity of
Havana.

Ing desperately TO retain his office,
and the politicians are said to fear
that the chief will stop at nothing to
beat him.
Men who have protected the under

q In the natural progress of nations

Immediately burst if poison were

composed of plaster, eggs, the shells

this suggests the origin of the word

"porcellaD means 'fittle pig" and a
certain shell, being shaped like a

This she'll was used to some extent
in the arts by being carved into
canoes and personal ornaments.
These became porcelana wares, and
when the new production became
known it's likeness to the shellwork
was recognized. The new material
thus acquired the French name

celain."

THE DIET QUESTION.
Eat What You Like, What Agrees
With You, but Eat Slowly.

Eat What You Like, What Agrees
With You, but Eat Slowly.
r That instinct is a much better
guide to diet than faulty reasoning
IS the conclusion of DR.. Woods
Hutchinson, writing on dietetic fads
in McClure's Magazine. Here are
some of his findings condensed:
Men should eat what they like
and a good deal Of it. "Given our
age, sex, size, horsepower and the
work to be done, the suitable fuel
is only question of cost and Access
-sibility.'
Fish is no richer in phosphorus
than many other foods. Even if it
we're it would not therefore be good
for the BRAIN" as some suppose.
Spices do not cheat the blood"
That notion confounds the "hot"
taste with ectusl heat. Spices are
antiseptic. The Egyptians preserved
muumies in spices. In tropical
countries people eat more spices
than in cold ones, and the diet does
them good.
Pork is all right. 1t digests slow
", but that is an advantage. The
more rapidly digested foods are not
the most healthfuL The digestive
machinery must have work to do
like the rest of the body.
,Vegetarianism is "the diet OF the
enslayed, stagnant and conquered
races" A dietrich in meat is that
of the dominant races.
Few people who eat much meat
ever become consumptiye. "Tuber-
culosis sweeps like pestilence
through the grass and grain eaters
cattle, antelopes. chickens, pleas
ants, turkeys-but is decidedly rare
among meat eaterS-dogs, cats, IL
gers, lions, ciyets, badgers, hawks,
eagles, crows"
Breakfast foods are we'll enough
if you must have them, but "be
sure and eat your breakfast first"
White bread "is the best, most
healthful and most nutritious food
which the sun has ever grown from
the SOIL" Wars have always been
fercest for the possession of the
great wheat growing plains. No ma
ton eats brown bread when it can
get white. Instinct is here also cor
rect. Whole wheat meal, or "gra-
ham," contains more nitrogen than
white, but the white has more
available" nitrogen.
."Mush makes superb sour
mash in weak stomach" "The
tortures of the chronic dyspeptic
are aggravated and in very many
cases chiefly caused by the very
foods which he takes for their cure"
The chief value of "mush and milk"
(meaning also other coarse cereal
foods) is in the milk and sugar.
Eat slowly, eat what you like,
what agrees with you and as much
as you need, seems to be DR.. Hutch
inson's idea.

AlbonI and Royalty.
