Sugar as Food.

A noted English physician would
have everybody eat quarter of a
pound of sweets daily. He says:
Nothing is more strengthening than
sugar. It is possible to work for hours
after eating four ounces of chocolate
without feeling the slightest fatigue
If 7 had my way, every soldier in the
British army would be allowed a
quarter of a pound of sweets every
day. NV practice is to take five or six
Jumps of sugar in every cup of coffee
or tea" The old belief was that
sweets of all kinds were bad as food
and interfered with Digestion But We
know now that thev are real food, and
are especially good for us when we are
tagged out nervously. Children are
increasingly active. and they always
crave something sweet. The craving
comes from an actual bodily need

That English Market.

T. V. Moore, one of the largest
and most progressive pineapple grow
ers in Dade county, is among, if not
the largest shipper Of pineapples to
the English markets this season.
Mr.. Moore has believed that Eng
land would eventually become one of
the best markets for American pines,
thereby opening up a profitable trade
East Coast pineapp1es. Last season
he, with others, made the experiment
and shipped a considerable quantity
of fruit to London, which was distrib-
uted to other markets in the king
dom. The result, although purely ex-
perimental, proved to be very salts
factory, not only to the grower and
the transportation companies, but also
to our English cousins.
This season Mr.. Moore shipped four
carloads to London He has received
returns from two cars, the first ship
ped. The prices secured were much
better than the prices he received in
this country, which left him neat
balance in English coin above what
he would have received in the United
States.
At this writing he has not received
returns from the two last cars, but
he is confident that the high prices re-
ceived for his first shipment will be
maintained.
The English method of doing busi-
ness has proven very satisfactory to
Mr.. Moore. Just fourteen days after
his shipment left Buena Vista, Fla,
he received his returns by cablegram.
In speaking of this feature Of the
deal, he said: 'I received my returns
for my fruit shipped to England in
lust fourteen days after I shipped it.
This is much better record than for
much Of my fruit shipped to New
York and other markets in the United
States. 1t was prompt returns and
most satisfactory prices"
Other grower also shipped pines to
England and it is reported they re-
ceived very satisfactory prices.
The English market is now an es-
tablished fact, and each year the ship
ment will increase and the demand be
greater. 1t is believed that Germany
will also eventually make good mar
ket for the pineapple.
Mr.. Moore is a simple enthusiast,
and is now busy clearing twenty-five
or thirty acres of pine land near Little
River, which he will plant in pine

 A LITTLE MORE


 FL PSo. June 1.--Lady F1o.r the alleged colored wife of the late Lord Delasai Beresford, intends, it is said. t9 file suit in the Republic of Mexico for alleged additional claims against the estate of the deceased English man.
 The claims include, it is ayerred personal property and also other moneys due for extra cattle that have not been allotted tc Lady Flo" This allotment is in addition to the live stock that has already been conceded to the claimant. Further. it is alleged that the woman proposes. now that she has denied that she was Lord Beresford's common law wife. 10 con tend that she is entitled to wages un- der the Mexican law during the time that she was in Mexico, which in cludes many long years. and would in the aggregate amount to several thou sands of dollars.
 In this connection it is not denied that the claimant has signed re- ceipt in full for all demands and valves ali demands against the es- tate. But 1t is contended that the waiver comprises only the claims as wife and those of the legacy em- braced in the will of the testator, and do not by any means include those as servant or any personal property in which there was a vested claim.

D. m. Before pronouncing the sentence the judge asked the negro if he had anything to say why sentence should not be passed upon him and the condemned man had much to say. He said that he did not have a fair trial; that some of the witnesses for the prosecution had per jnred themselves in their testimony against him and furthermore that at the time he entered the saloon where the fatal quarrel began he was con vinced that he woul abe murdered, to prevent which he would have to de fend himself
 If this statement was intended by Davis as extenuation for his crime, it is absurd. as he shot his victim while his back was turned and the follow ed him up. shooting the already fatally wounded man in the back Attorneys for Davis announced intention of ap- pealing the case.

10 DAYS DROUGHT
 IN TEXAS IN JULY
New Law Will Close Up Every Saloon for a Brief
 Time.

AUSTIN. Tex, June 3.-Eyery sa- loon in Texas will have to close for a period of from ten to twenty days fol- lowing July 2, the date when the Baskin-M McGregor bill goes into eff feet. This is the effect of the bill according to an opinion rendered yes terday by Claude Pollard. assistant at torney general.
 As soon 2S . summary Of the opinion can be printed the comptroller will send statements to the county judges. tan assessors and county clerks of the various counties to the effect that the persons engaging in a saloon business must obey the law That this de- feat should have been allowed to go into the bill as it did is a surprise to the saloon men. as they had paid representative in Austin looking after their interests all through the legis- latuIe.
 The Bsskin-MeGrego bill repeals the present liquor Jaw and the new law goes into effect on the date this law is repealed. Saloon keepers cannot begin a procedure to get a license un- der the new law until the new law goes into effect. This will require at least ten days. In most instances it will require much longer before new license can be procered.
 Saloon keepers will have to wait until the new law goes into effect be fore they can make application to the comptroller for a permit. After the permit has been procured the saloon keeper must petition the county judge with the permit attached, for license to do business The county judge must give from ten to twenty days notice of a hearing under which the petition is to be granted. At this hearing the saloon keeper must show he is qualified to take out a license. If qualified he must take out his bond and pay his license fee. All this sill require considerable time in addition to the minimum of ten days, which must be given to the hearing of the petition.
 In many parts of the state the reign of prohibition will last for twenty days as some points are at szch distance that the hearing of the petition can not be finished within that time, even should the county judge give the. min iIaHm time Of notice

The Best Dressed Man.

Of course the best dressed man in the world is the English gentleman. If you enter the royal inclosure at New market or visit the lawn at Goodwood on the day of classic race; if you at tend a fashionable orchid or horse show when some great parsonage presides, you will hardly see any one dressed otherwise than perfectly.

RATS EAT S100,000,000 IN GRAIN ANNUALLY IN
 UNITED STATES.

WASHINGTON, June 3.-That rats eat more grain in the United States than all other noxious animals com bined; that s100,000,000 a year is s small estimate of the damage done by the rodents, and that the pests are multiplying with startling rapidity. are facts set forth in a new bulletin issued today by the Department of Agriculture. along with some good ad- vice as the the best methods of de stroying the animals.
 No statistics of the actual damage annually done by these rodents have been gathered in America says D E. Lnntz, Assistant Biologist of the department, who made the rat tnvesti- gstion.
 70 Denmark the loss is put at S. ese. .aa0 year. and ia France the dam age hy both rats and mice has been estimated at s4G,0g0.O 900 annually.
 4 single rat will consume about two ounces of wheat or corn day. and 1t destroys far more corn than n eats, as, indeed, t does of most oth- eriood.
 The average cost to the country of feeding 2 rat on grain is about 90 cents a year. If for each COW. horse. sheep and hog on the farms of the United States farmers support one rat on grain, the toll leFied on the cereals by these rodents would reach the enormous total of $100.000, ,0Go a year..
 Their pr0lificness is the chief ob- stacie to their examination. They pro drce young from three to six times a year. and females breed when abont months old The average litter is about ten, but often 1t numbers four. teen or more
 If three filters of ten each are pro. duced every year. 8 single pair. breed ing without check and without losses by death in three years would repre- scented by ten generations and would number 20,550.ss individuals.

LONGEVITY.

 What is the secret of longevity2 We answer: The surest guarantee is q genius for 1t. q bodily and mental pre- disposition to a long life. There are persons who are ''prehgured unto a long duration" Those who have this gift, which is inherited from long lived ancestors. will generally reach old age, even though they trample on the laws of health, because. although they draw more largely on thelr vitality than careful liyers. they begin life with a vast capital.
 For the man of ordinary stamina the chief conditions of long life that are not involuntary are constant oecupa- ton In an honorable calling. regular hours. bodily exercise. plenty of sleep. q temperate qualification of all the nat ural capacities. a sunny disposition and a clear conscience. The deadliest foes to longevity are excitement, hurry and worry.
 Strictly speaking. it is not overwork that is. in the aggregate that kills. It is too much work done in too little time that causes so many breakdowns today. Work pure and simple, however hard or constant, seldom impairs the health. if only ordinary hygIenic pre- cautions are observed. Mental and bodily labor within reasonable. limits tend rather to prolong life than to fray its thread Even overwork may do less injury than underwork- rare and obscure calamity from which no body is supposed to suffer Success

SAYS BOOZE GAR"
 CAUSED TRAGEDY
Denver Newspaper Man and Circus Owner Accused of
 Negligence.

DENVER. June 3.-aecording to. adyices from Idaho. both civil and criminal action will be brought against the Sells-Floto circus manage ment because of the death of the daughter of S. E. Rozell at Twin Falls, where a tiger broke from its cage. And it is said that H. H. Tam men, one of the proprietors of the Denver Post and it's circus adjunct, will get the brunt of the blow.
 Tammen's notorious booze car will be factor in the damage suits that will be brought as a result of the Twin Falls tragedy. His periodical visits to the show, according to Will liam Sells. (whose name has been borrowed by the tcircus). were signal ized by a raiG on this car that usually resulted in general decentralization of the circus force While Sells was with the show these general sprees, as he terms them, were not danger GUS. because he (Sells) always carried in his own pocket the keys to all ami maj cages.
 There was no danger of any occur renee of that sort that happened at Twin Falls he said "even when Tammen was with the show, and the bCcze car was open to all who de sired to indulge, because the cage doors never were opened for feeding. The kepers put the meat for jungle beasts through the chuck hole. Tn all of my years as circus man. ager. have never heard of such carelessness as that which caused the death of the child at Twin Falls, said Sells. The latter says he be Heves it will cost Tammen good share of the seasons profits to square accounts at Twin Falls.

sny further claims in Mexico.
 But on the other hand, IL is con tended by Lady Flo's" attorneys in Juarez that she has not received her just dues. and consequently there will be further proceedings instituted.
 These attorneys who were quoted some time ago in full refuse to be cited at the present time. explaining that It will injure their case owing to the action taken yesterday. It should be stated in this connection that when Lord Beresford died Lady Flo" consulted attorneys in Juarez. and they looked after her interests. Subsequently she put her American and Canadian interests into the hands of attorneys on this side of the river and the lawyers on the other side state that through the honorable con duct and marked legal ability of Judge Leigh Clark a most favorable settlement was made under the will; but other questions entirely foreign are now at issue.
 Lady Flo" Is keeping herself se- cluded and was not seen by report CT. But several of her colored friends were interviewed and they verify the statement made by the Juarez attor- neys. who state that at an early date they will probably have an interesting announcement for qualification. But at present they have nothing to say. It is stated by Lady Flo's" friends that she has been so often interviewed that she has positively nothing what ever to give out.
 It is learned indirectly todap that upon late inventories being made the Beresford estates in Canada. the United States and Mexico far exceed ed the most sanguine expectations. It Is now valued at S2,000,000. The live stock is in splendid condition and the land in all three countries has in- creased in value. Admiral Lord Charles Beresford. the executor, has placed managers in charge and re- turned to England. It is announced today that all the property, both real and personal, will be sold and vested in other securities that will not re quire constant and general super vision.
