Richard F. Walsh, a lieutenant Of the
police attached to the Classon avenue sta
ton In Brooklyn, committed suicide yester-
day afternoon by shooting himself through
the head with his service revolver at his
home. d27 East l35th street. He was still
living when q surgeon from the Lincoln
Hospital reached him, but he died shortly
after being taken to the hospital.
Walsh was for several years a detective
sergeant at the Central ONCE. He was
appointed to the force ten years ago and
saz his first service under his uncle, Capt.
Delaney, since retired. In February. 1900,
Walsh was sent to the Brooklyn Detective
Bureau. and In the last shakeup three weeks
ago was transferred to desk duty at the
GLEASON avenue station. He was never a
ready penman, and IL 10 thought that the
worry Of his new duties. together with Ill
health, 80 preyed upon him that he be-
came respondent. His associates in the
Police Department. say that Walsh was a
quiet fellow who had never distinguished
himself in any ray and who had never
been mixed up in any OF the scandals OF
the Detective Bureau.
Lieut.. Walsh was a married man with three
young children. He had tired OF the long
trip from Brooklyn to East 195th street and
had decided to move nearer TO his precinct.
He had engaged a fat at 1887 Lincoln place.
Brooklyn, and had his household effects
packed ready to move. His wife took the
three children on Saturday TO visit a sister
In Brooklyn. She expected her husband
TO call for her yesterday morning. When
he failed to appear she became worried
and at last started for their old home In
The Bronx.
Mrs. Walsh got homo shortly after 8
left 1t, but she was startled by a
sound Of heavy breathing. coming from
her husbsnd's room. She found her hus-
band, fully dressed in citizens clothes,
lying on the bed with a bullet, wound in
his forehead. Beside the bed lay his re-
volver. After she had called for assistance
Mrs. Walsh looked for a note or any possible
explanation for HE act, but found nothing.
Coroner Mcdonald decided that 1t was a
plain case Of suicide, He said that the
pistol had been placed directly against
the forehead when the hot was fired.
Mrs. Walsh told the Coroner hat she had
left her husband In ths best OF spirits and
could In no way account for his act.
Capt. Reimels OF the Claesop avenue
station said last night that Walsh had
worried q good deal over the unfamiliar
desk work and had had an almost childish
fear OF being brought up on charges for
minor mistakes in writing UP the police
blotter.

PHILIPPINE WAR TARIFF VALID.
SUPP Court Says Congress Has Power
TO Ralfy Collection OF Duties.

10 hatlfy COllecuOn OF buUes.
WASHINGTON, May 27.-The Supreme
Court to-day held that the action OF Con-
gress last summer in ratifying the collec-
ton OF duties on merchandise going into
the Philippine Islands between the dates
the treaty OF peace was signed and the
enactment by Congress OF the Philippines
tariff was valid, Notwithstanding several
years had passed. At the last term the
court held that the duties we're illegally
collected, the tariff act promulgated by
President Mckinley under the so-called
war power being void, and on a rehearing
devoted to the question whether or not
Congress had ratified the objection OF the
duties affirmed its former judgment in
favor OF the importers on the ground that
the language Of Congress, il IL did intend
to ratify, was too ambiguous to permit
any other construction. The present case.
brought by Conrad Heinzen, was pending
when Congress, after that decision, attached
to an appropriation bill a rider specifically
ratifying the duties collected under the
so-called war tariff, but that fact, said
Justice White to-day, IN delivering the
opinion Of the court, did not deprive Con-
gress Of the power to ratify the collection
made by its officers in the name OF the
United States.
Even II the duties were illegally COL
lected," he continued. 1T was not because
Of lack Of power by the United States to
TO do so. As a result OF the power to ratify
it followed that the right to recover the
ercise by Congress OF its u~ndoubted power
to ratify."
AS to the contention that the passage
OF the ratification was retroactive the
opinion says:
authority, has exercised in the name OF
a principal a power which the principal
has the capacity to bestow, the principal
may ratify and affirm the unauthorized
act and thus retroaotively give 1t vitality

4 Few ot the Things the Government Does to Encourage Agriculture.

Washington, D. e. July 5.-(Special Correspondence to The Republican).- When addressing audiences princi- pally composed of ruralists, politi- cians frequently refer to the treatment accorded them by the government in q manner calculated to impress them with the idea that in some way they are getting the worst of it. As mat ter Of fact no class of our citizens is as well treated as the farmers and no industry is so fostered as is agricul- ture This ;s the only industry which has a special representative in the cabinet, with 8 great and constantly expanding department devoted almost exclusively to it's interests. If man wishes to engage in agriculture here are a few of the things which the government will do for him. It will sell him land at the lowest rates an1 on the easiest terms. If it is arid the government under certain conditions will irrigate it. If he will submit sam ples of the soil the scientists will ana lyze them and tell him just what the scis in its natural state will best pro- Guce. Should he wish to raise a crop not suitable to the soil the scientists V T tell him how to fertilize it to sup ply the missing elements. From gov ernment publications and other sourc-

We cannot keep Grape-N Nuts food in the house. It goes so fast I ha c to hide it. because the children love it so. It is just the food I have beer looking for ever so long; something that I do not have to stop Co prepare and still is nourishing"
 Grape-Nuts is the most scientifically made food on the market. It is per fectly and completely cooked at the factory and can be served at an in stant's notice, either with rich cold cream, or with hot milk if a hot dish is desired. When milk or water is used, a little sugar should be added. but when cold cream is used alone the natural grape-sugar, which can be seen glistening on the granules, is sufficiently sweet to satisfy the palate. This grape-sugar is not poured over the granules. as some people think, but eAudes from the granules in the pro- cess of manufacture. when the starch of the grains is changed from starch to grape-suSar by the process of man. ufacture. This. in effect, is the first act of digestion: therefore. Grape Nuts food is pre-digested and is most perfectly assimilated by the very weakest stomach. There's a reason

the cost of bad roads. which falls on him. By demonstrating the difference in dollars and cents between market ing products hauled over bad as com pared with good roads, the government is inculcating a desire for good roads that is bearing fruit in all parts of the country.
 While the farmers will shortly have completed their wheat harvesting it does not follow that gathering of grain will stop. X statistician of the depart ment has calculated that wheat is be- ing harvested somewhere on the globe throughout the entire year In Jan uary there is harvesting in Chile. Ar genuine and Australia and New Zeal and. Next comes the wheat of India Upper Egypt, the latter running into March. Lower Egypt cuts wheat in April along with Syria, Persia and Mexico. Texas is ready in May, as is Algeria. Central Asia. China. Japan and Morocco. Most of our states cut in June and July as does Turey, Italy. Portugal. Spain and France, Southern Russia. Austria and other countries. In August the Dakotas and other North ern States. along the Manitoba. Lower Canada. Denmark and Central Russia take in their grain. Scotland. Norway. Sweden and Northern Russia harvest in September and october while in November the harvest of Peru and South Africa is ready. By the time Christmas is here the farmers in New South Wales and Burmah are just completing their harvest while those of Chile and Argentine are getting ready to go ahead again.
 Now that the canning season is coming on apace the decision of the Pure Food Commission as to the use benZonate of soda as a preservative for tomato catsup, corn. tomatoes, pickles, etc. is awaited with much in- terest. Some of the manufacturers of food products, headed by the H. J. Heinz company of Pittsburg. appealed to the commission to prohibit the use of benzonate of soda on the ground that it was unnecessary and therefore could not but be deleterious to health without any advantage. Samples were submitted of many products packed without such preservatives. Later other manufacturers argued in favor of benzonate of soda. representing that i: was used in such small quantities as to be utterly harmless and that it was very useful in preserving foods which otherwise would spoil. Although pr H. w. Wiley, chairman of the commis- sion has gone to France to settle tho wine growers troubles, it is expected | the question will be decided before | long. IL was his reference to the use
 of benzonate of soda in pie filling:
 that was interpreted as a coIdemna.

He is taught the relative food values of the differ ent crops and what to feed to secure certain results. How to irrigate arid land. how to drain swampy land; ho E to cultivate potatoes, tomatoes, corn. wheat. hay. alfalfa, fruits, vegetables and cereals; the construction of barns. poultry houses and other outbuildings; in fact, almost everything that a farm CT may need to know he can learn from the department of agriculture or other governmental sources. Particu- lar attention is paid to the introduc- tion of new varieties of wheat, cotton, tobacco. looking to an improvement in quality or quantity. All this, while di- rectly advantageous to the farmer. is also beneficial to the country at large. for it greatly increases the value of our farm products and by making the lot of the farmer more attractive, tends to relieve the congestion of our cities. This is one of the reasons that the expenditure of thirty millions a year in the delivery of mail in rural communities is not begrudged.
