A Change
When Coffee
Is Left Off.

1t is almost as hard for an old coffee
topper to quit the use Of coffee as it is
for a whiskey or tobacco fend to break
off, except that the coffee user can quit
coffee and take up Postum Food Coffee
without any feeling of loss of the
morning, beverage, for when Postum is
well boiled and served with cream, it is
really better in point of favor than
most of the coffee served nowadays,
and to the taste Of the connoisseur it
is like the flavor Of fine Java.
A great transformation takes place in
the body within ten days or two weeks
after coffee is left off and Postum Food
Coffee used, for the reason that the
poison to the nerves has been discon-
tinued and in it's place is taken a liquid
that contains the most powerful ele-
ments Of nourishment
, It is easy to make this test and prove
these statements by changing from cof-
fee to Postum Food Coffee.
There's a reason.

"When pig squeals the loudest it is

The celebrated memorandum sent by
former Senator William E. Chandler. OF,

This is almost the universal opinion
in the senate. Mr.. Bailey's own asso-

have been unjustly suspected Of disloy-
atty to his professed principles, there
can be no doubt now that he was thus
suspected, and that Mr.. Chandler him
self put that suspicion in writing.

NAVAL BILL rs PASSED
House Votes Appropriation of $99,764,
OOO--Open Market Denied.

Washington, May 1s.-After two
weeks debate the house has passed the
naval appropriation bill, carrying $685.
764,000. T. .~.#
The amendment providing that the
secretary of the navy could go into
the open market for chains, anchors and
cordage, if they could be had cheaper
there than they could be made by the
government, was defeated by vote of
ll8 to 129. 49,. 49,

. This provision ,mplained Of was put
into the bill at e suggestion Of Mr..
-NtcCumber OF Nol Dakota. who had q
Wordy tilt with M Bailey lasting half
an hour.
Mr.. Balley's &C tions were sup
ported by good /, ,er of senators,
put there was appar'~---y no serious dis
position to strike ou or any other
part of the McCumbe endment.
Senator La Follett, s finally sue
ceeded in having one O. amendments
incorporated into the bill. Yes
terday he offered an am ,ent to that
section of the bill rec railways
to construct sidetracks he accom-
modation of shipping MS. This
amendment provided se.s.ss,s- penalties
and in various other wa 'S ngthened
the section. p,
There was a dlsposlt first to
treat the amendment in lstOmary
Indifferent fashion whic been ap-
piled to all the La Follet dments,
but various senators on lblican
side, among them Mr.: { Min
nesOta, arose and decfs, lat the
amendment was not only {s.Yper but
necessary, whereupon, vote being
taken, the amendment was carried by
decisive majority.
Passes Anti-Pass Provision.
The anti-pass amendment to- the rate
bill was finally adopted in almost the
exact form in which the senate the day
previously had loaded it down with
provisions, some of which were intended
to be grotesque. Mr.. Hansbrough Of
fered a provision making it an offense
to accept passes as we'll as to give
them, which was agreed to.
Mr.. Dolliver offered an amendment
excepting from the provisions of the
section the secretaries Of the railway
Y. M. c. A., which was also agreed to-.
Mr.. Hale then, facetiously, offered an
amendment admitting football and base
ball players to the privileges Of free
passes and Mr.. McLaurin wanted to
amend the Hale amendment by admit
ting also their "widows and orphans.
These suggestions were, of course, not
accepted, and the section was adopted
as read, with the additions suggested
by Messrs. Hansbrough and Dolliver.
It has been estimated that the ex-
cepted classes in this section will num-
ber 100000 persons, perhaps more.
The railway employees and their fam
lilies alone will number perhaps that
many persons. The section does not
include, however, the politicians who
have so greatly abused the pass priv
lege for years, and against whom the
section is chiefly directed.

Philadelphia, May 1S.-Freight re-

this effect was given today before the
Interstate commerce commission by
Frank H. Wigton, president of the Nor

Mr.. Wigton himself arranged the re-

told, he says. They were made during
several months just prior to the retire

freight traffic manager Of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad company until June l.,

Mr.. Wigton testified that in these re-

Pennsylvania railroad, checks for the
Morrisdale Coal company for from
$1,000 to $4,000.

July Is. The local mm ket was
very quiet last week. Receipts
were comparatively light and out
side of a few punches quality was
just fair. Demand was very strong
for the desirable beef grades and
prices closedS strong to IA little
higher. but buyers were hard to
interest on the medium and COM
mon kinds and they are off 10 to
10 cents and in some cases even
more. A bunch of choice corn fed
beef steers sold late Friday at 81 25,
the high price for some time, with
others at So and bulk of the
better killing grades at $50 to
500. A feature of the market
was the arrival of the first North
Park cattle of the season, which is
always looked forward to with much
interest here. They were in good
flesh and good quality although
hardly as fat as year ago at this
time. The bulk sold to packers at

81 so to $500. Cows were active
at firm prices if they showed quail
ity but common kinds were very
dull and it was not so much a
question of price as of getting bids.
Best corn fed COWS brought A.l5
and a bunch of fancy corn fed
heifers went at $40 A few North
Park COWS sold at $3.50 to S4.OO
but most of the good grassers went
at $500 to $3.50 and good many
of the common COWS at $3.50 to
$500. Bulls were steady and in
good demand. Veals were also
firm with bulk of the weeks sup
ply at $3.50 to $3.50. Feeder and
stocker trade was very quiet and
little change in the situation.
Both demand and supply was light
and hardly enough stuff here to
test the strength of the market.
Eastern demand is very light and
prices reported off l5 to 25 cents
and market here decidedly weak in
consequence.
Several punches of good beef
will arrive here this week but out
side of these the supply in sight
for this market is light and dealers

The day of cheap newspapers Is
drawing to an end. The postotfice
