THE WHOLE THING.
That's the Way Tennessee Man
Looked at Coffee.

The following letter is so Interesting
and contains so much good harp sense
about the coffee question, we pupllsh II
for our readers:
81 laughed at the idea that coffee IN
jured me, notwithstanding the tremp-
ling hands, sallow, muddy complexion
the tired, listless feeling and aversion
TO mental or physical effort. Also the
terrible moments in the mgnt "hen
nv heart would palpitate so vlolently
that it seemed each moment 1t Woulo
wear itself out and become forever
still.
when I married, my coffee days
came to an end-my good wife refused
to serve it to me, placing Postum on
the table instead.
This was done over my protest,

straw colored liquid with an 1ns1pld
taste. But the cup she set before me
was not so bad, and in way l even
enjoyed it. But we had not then 1ul-
ly learned how to make Postum prop
erly-by long boiling.
"Then the results came. the old
heaviness after meals no longer
troubled me- the heart palpitatlon stop

"Many persons have spoken to me
about Postum in such way as to
leave no doubt they do not know how
to make it, You might as we'll set
meat or vegetables on the back of the
stove and let them steep, as to prepare
Postum that way.

Mcpherson Approves Contention
of Appellants and Remands
Actions to State Court
HIS ACTION is IMPORTANT
Morgan, Gross and Smith Gases

T.. r. Mason, clerk of the United
States court at Des Moines, in a let

ing, announces that the cases of Nor
gan, Gross and Smith, VS.. the City OF
Marshalltown, have been ordered re-
manded TO the state court by Judg"
Mcpherson, and consequently are no
longer pending on the docket of the
federal court Mr.. Mason's letter was
in reply to one written him by M.
Carney, asking that he be notified as
soon as any action in the cases were
taken by the court.
Mr.. Carney succeeded Judge Parker

paving cases when Mr.. Parker was APP

Judge Mcpherson is an important one
and sustains the contention of the APP
pellants' to the effect that not one OF
the numerous cases appealed involves
$1,000.
Frances S. Morgan and orty-eigat
others took appeals a few years ago
from the paving assessments, as re-
turned by the city council, to the dis
,r,nt ooi,rf
The cases of George w. Calhoun and
Timothy Brown were tried out by the
district court, one by Judge Burnham
and the other by the late Judge cas-
we'll. In both these cases the plaintltfs
were released from the assessments.
Later. the city brought in the Bar
Der Asphalt Paving Company as a
proper party to help defend against the
appeals in all other cases, and Judge
Burnham ordered that the paving COM

cases.
The appellants opposed this movement
and moved to remand the cases to the
district court on several grounds, on
one of which, at least, they have sue
ceeded. This ground is that the amount
in controversy, in not one of the APP
pealed cases, amounts to $4,000. Judge
Mcpherson now endorses that view
While the records filed in the federal
court dealt only with the three cases
above named, the principle is the same
in all of the numerous cases.
The Barber Asphalt Company later
brought suit against Timothy Brown
and G.. W. Calhoun in separate actions
In the amounts of their assessments
Each of the defendants demurred. and
Judge Caswell sustained the demurrer
in the Brown case. Later the PLAIN
tiff amended the petition in
the Brown case and the defendant has
renewed his demurrer. Both of these
cases will now be brought before Judge
Bradshaw. and an effort will be made
to have him attend the January term
and hear the cases. Judge Parker, by
reason of his former connection with
the appellants, will not, of course, near
the cases.

First Gold Snap Has Its Effect on
Traffic

The usual delays incidental to the
first extremely cold snap was notice.
able in the movement of passenger
trains on all the roads entering the
city this morning. None of the morn
ing trains, exclusive of the Northwes-
terms fast mail, were on time. The
delays were from few minutes to an
hour or more. Engine troubles, re-
sulting from the cold was the princi-
pal cause of the delays. The North
Westerns thru east-bound trains dur
ing the night were all delayed, some of
them as much as six or eight hours.
The cold snap affected the telegraph
wires of the Iowa Central. and two
breaks resulted from contraction which
snapped the wires in two One break
was between Liscomb and Union, and

e. II. Hartman Declares Better
Trackage Facilities Would
Solve Problem
TOO MANY CARS FOR STORAGE
New Tracks and More Elevators Would
Relieve Many Cars Now Held for
Storage of Grain Shipments-Asrees
With James j. Hill on One Point.
Other Particulars.

Chicago, Nov 22.-Edward II. Har-
riman. railroad rival of James j. Hull
whose fight for the control Of the Illi-
nois Central road recently deposed
Stuveysant Fish, arrived in Chicago
last night from Kansas City. His
train was nearly an hour late and he
went directly to the Auditorium An
mex. He is returning to New York
from the session of the Trans Mississ-
ippi commercial congress, where he
made a speech on the rate question,
He will leave for New York this aft
ernoon on the Twentieth Century lin
tied.
Says He Agrees With Hill.
What did Mr.. Hill say about 49,
600 miles of tracks being needed?" Mr..
Hartman asked when the subject of
track extension was preached Did
he mean more lines of railway or more
tracks for handling the cars?"
Mr.. Hill alone knows what he
means" Mr.. Hartman was told.
We'll, l guess agree with him"
said Mr.. Hartman. Il think the whole
problem of the cities at least lies
right there. 1t is expensive to use a
car costing $4,000 for storage purposes.
We need also more elevators and
tracks to handle the cars now being
rushed into the cities"
He thought even $4,000 miles OF that
kind of trackage would not be too
much.
Railroads Will Obey Rate Law.
Are the railroads willing to obey
the new rate law" he was asked next.
DO you mean the law that he have
or the law thatiwe are going to haye?''
he asked quickly. you must not con-
fuse the Sherman anti trust law and
the Elllins amendment with the rate
law that is in control of the interstate
commerce commission. These prose-
cutions all have been brought under
the old law. Let us see how that
works out before trying any more
law Yes. we are willing to obey
in the spirit and in the letter. The
railroads always wants to obey the
law if they know what 1t is"
"What about San Francisco. Mr..
Hartmann"
We'll 1 cannot say too many kind
words about San Francisco. They
are too busy with reconstruction out
there to think Of railroads or anything
else, but they are all right. That city
will come out on top"
