HANG ON Coffee Topers as Bad as Others.

"A friend of our family who lived with us a short time was.a great coffee drink CT and a continual sufferer with dyspep- sia He admitted that coffee disagreed with him. but you know how the coffee orinking will hold on to his coffee, even If ae knows it causes dyspepsia.
 "iOne day he said to me that Postum IF ood Coffee had been recommended and (uggested that he would like very much to try it. I secured a package and made lit strictly according to directions. He was delighted with the new beverage, as was every one of our family. He became very fond of it and in short time his dyspepsia disappeared He continued using the Postum and in about three months gained twelve pounds.
 My husband is practicing physician and regards Postum as the healthiest of all beverages. He never drinks coffee but is very fond of Postum. In fact. all of our family are. and we never think of drinking coffee any more" Read. 'The Road to Melville" in pkgs. There's a Reason"

LOVEJOY HEARING WILL
 BE GIVEN THIS MORNING

2. is whipping prisoner to death. The negro died a week or two ago at his home after having received a severe whip ping at the hands of Loveioy. Some of the doctors who examined the negro stated that his death could have been caused by something else, but were of the opinion that it had been caused by the whippings he had received. There were huge welts on the negros back and two or three holes in his shoulders. Coroner Parish made no charge against anyone, but the United Charities society and other organizations have taken the matter up and sworn out a warrant against Love joy charging him with the crime. Love- joy admits having whipped the negro.

ing with the greatest prosperity of his

his wonderful work in this powerful
play Henry Lavedan was already one
of the immortals when he wrote THE
Duel" Had he not been, it is safe to
say that this play would have placed
him among the elect. No more human
love story was ever written than this
one with its duel between atheistic
doctor and his brother, a deeply spirit

woman. The unfolding of the story
and the final remuneration of the priest
makes one of the strongest stories of
contemporary Drama Mr.. Skinner was
never seen to better advantage than
he is as Able Daniel in this wonderful

A Remarkable Lighthouse.

At the entrance of Odessa harbor. In
Russia, is sunken rock which has
been the source of danger to navigators
for centuries past, says the Detroit
Free Press. The Russians have decid-
ed to erect on this rock lighthouse
which will rival in originality and in
terest any lighthouse of ancient or
modern times. This is to be a gigantic
figure Of Christ holding aloft in his
left hand n cross The light, one of ex-
ceptional brilliancy, is to be placed in
the center of the cross. What more
fitting emblem for a lighthouse can
one conceive than this figure Of the
Light of the World guiding the mariner
on life's sea to the port of safety?

boy of Ten Subject of Educational
Test Case In California Courts.
In these days of internal and inter
national complications over the Japa-
nese educational problem in California
the most prominent figure is Keikichi
Aoki, the ten-year-old son of Mitchi-
sugu Aoki of 2201 Pine street, San
Francisco, who has been selected by
Japan and the United States to be the
subject of the test case in the courts.
says San Francisco special dispatch
to the New York Herald.
The boys father refused to send him
to the oriental school when the segre-
CATION rule of the board of education
went into effect. He was selected by
Consul Uyeno and was agreeable to
the United States district attorney,
who will present the case TO the court
for the United States.
So that the whole question of such
great Importance must revolve around
young Aoki until the highest court has
passed upon it. BY that time the little
Japanese boy will have helped make
several chapters in modern history.
The board of education has no Objec-
ton to the selection of Aoki IS the
subject for the court action, and from
now on the case will make rapid prog
ress in court unless some unforeseen
complications arise.

Extract of beer put up in the form
of plugs like tobacco is what the
thirsty Kansan may use now to Quench
his thirst, says n Topeka dispatch.
One plug will make from four TO six
gallons of what Is POLITICALLY termed
the amber liquid. And the manufac-
tured beer seems to have all the quail
ties, good and bad, of that which is
made from real hops and put in bot
ties and kegs.
The Kansas state board of health
has inspected the extract and finds
there are no adulterants or preserva-
tives in it. The company which is to
push the product guarantees its purity.
The state prohibition laws and the
federal revenue laws have at last been
surmounted. A Topeka man discov-

MOLINE

Large Sum in lmproVements.-Esti-
mates show that $1,40O,O00 was ex-
pended in Moline in 1906 on all classes
of improvements, and in the city and
its three suburbs to the east-East Mo-
line, Silvis and Watertown-almost
81, 100000 was expended Contractors
estimate that 200 residences have been
erected in the city alone. There was
remarkable activity in residence build
ing; the most costly mansion in the
three cities was built here, a preten-
tious fiat building marks the recogni-
ton for the demand for this character
of apartments, and the general resi-
dence building met the demand for
homes as never before. Additions to
factories have been provided at cost
of $35O,000 to meet the increased trade,
and larger capacity means the employ
ment of more men, more people here
and new stimulus to local trade and
general progress.
Violent Deaths in Year 35.-Deaths
in Moline in 1906 number PA, an in
crease of 80 over the total for 1905
record. This high figure is accounted
for in part by an increase in population
and the highest record ever set in the
city on violent deaths. The number
of deaths over which the coroner held
inquests was So. Ten were the result
of train fatalities, II passed away of
natural causes, three were the result
of falls. three were suicides, three were
drowned, two were killed by acciden-
tai poisoning, one by sever gas fumes,
one succumbed to excessive heat, one
was run over by an interurban car, one
died from gunshot wounds inflicted
through accidental discharge of shot
gun OF the suicides, two drank car
bolic acid and the third chose the bull
let route. OF "a deaths over which the
coroner held inquests in 1905 to deter
mine the causes, nine died in train IA
talities, six died of natural causes,
there were three suicides, three died
in shop accidents, one died of excessive
use of liquor, and there were two muir
ders. 1t is a matter of congratulation
to factory superintendent that not n
man lost his life in factory during
1906, while during the year preceding
three received injuries to which they
succumbed. The record for sudden or
violent deaths stands alone in compar-
ison with other years. In 1900 there
were 10; in 1901, II; in 1902, 12; in
