WIFE WON
Husband Finally Convinced.

Some men are wise enough to try
new foods and beverages and then gen.
erous enough to give others the bene-
fit of their experience.
A very conservative Ills. man,
however, let his good wife find out for
herself what a blessing Postum is to
those who are distressed in many
ways, by drinking coffee. The wife
writes:
mo slave in chains, 1t seemed to
me, was more helpless than l. coffee
captive. Yet there were innumerable
warnings-waking from n troubled
sleep with feeling of suffocation, at
times dizzy and out of breath, at
tacks of palpitation Of the heart that
frightened me.
Common sense, reason, and my
better judgment told me that coffee
drinking was the trouble. At last my
nervous system was so disarranged
that my physician ordered no more
coffee

SENTENCE IS
COMMITTED
HARRY ORCHARDS FATE WILL
BE IMPRISONMENT FOR
LIFE.
IS NOT TO BE HANGED
BOARD OF PARDONS ACTS ON
RECOMMENDATION OF
JUDGE WOOD.

Boise, Idaho.-The State Board of
Pardons Wednesday commuted the
sentence of Harry Orchard, who was
under sentence to hang next Friday
for the murder of former Governor
Frank Steunenberg, to Imprisonment
for life. The board consists of Gov
ernor Gooding, Secretary of State
Lansdon and Attorney General GU
heen.
Frank Wyman, appointed by the
court to represent Orchard, appeared
before the board and presented a for
NAL argument in behalf of his client,
basing his plea solely on the legal
status of the case and maintaining as
was held by Judge Wood in recon-
mending clemency, that i'll making Or
chard states witness the state obli-
gated itself to extend consideration to
him in return. No one appeared to
oppose the proposed commutation and
by the unanimous. vote of the board
clemency was extended.
Orchard to the last was opposed to
having the sentence interfered with.
Only Tuesday he said to the attorney
that he hoped efforts to save him
from the gallows would fail.
Orchard was arrested two days af-
ter the assassination of former Gov
ernor Steunenberg at Caldwell, iSaho,
December 80, 1905. and few weeks
later, while confined in the Idaho peni
tentlary, confessed his guilt to James
MCFARLAND of the Pinkerton detective
agency, at the same time asserting
that he was employed to commit the
crime by officers of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners. AS a result of his
confession Charles II. Meyer, presi-
dent, William d. Haywood, secretary
treasurer, of the Western Federation
of Miners, and George A. Pettibone,
were arrested in Denver and brought
to Idaho to answer the charge of muir
der.
John Simpkins. another member of
the federation, was also indicted and
is still a fugitive. Haywood and Pet
tibone were acquitted after memorable
trials. in which Orchard told story
of wholesale assassination which
shocked the world.
Following the trial of Pettibone the
case against Meyer was dismissed. Or

stood mute, and the court directed that
plea of not guilty be entered His
case was continued from term to term
until April 10th of this year, when it
was called at Caldwell and he asked
permission to change his plea.
The court granted the request and
Orchard pleaded guilty to murder in
the first degree.
In pronouncing the sentence of death
a week later Judge Wood recon-
mended that the Board of Pardons
commute the sentence. saying he was
firmly convinced that Orchard had
told the whole and exact truth at the
trials of Haywood and Pettibone and
that he was. therefore, for the service
he had rendered the stats. entitled to

COLORADO.
The Girl Who ls Admired.

She is neither pretty nor plain but
she is charming. Her clothes portray
her individuality, and are a part of
herself. There is no clashing tone in
the scheme of color, and her attire is
always suitable to the occasion. This
particular girl is never obtrusive. She
car listen with interest to the cohver-
sation Of her companion, but can, If
necessary, converse brightly upon
various topics of interest. A shy man
is quite at his ease with her, and a
clever man appreciates an intelligent
companion. This girl makes a point
OF studying human nature, and she is
we'll rewarded for her trouble, for the
more she realizes the many trials and
sorrows of life, the greater is her SYM
pathy with human beings. And the
cultivation of compassion and loving
kindness is probably the secret Of her
power Of fascination. People realize
Iipstinctively the influence of sympathy
and will usually respond to sincere cx-
pz"ssions Of friendship. The average
man seeks helpmate in his wife He
has visions of gentle, loving influence
in his home, and also an inspiring, en-
couraging personality, who will cheer
him on the gloomy days, and delight
in his success. He appreciates girl
with taste, who will grace the head of
his table, and who is sufficiently clever
to order his home in an intelligent
manner. He is proud of her accom-
.plishments, but they are secondary OBJ
'jects of interest so far as his general
happiness is concerned. Beauty is not
the all-important factor, declares the
New York Weekly; indeed. good looks
are occasionally a doubtful asset, for
the frivolity and folishness of pretty
women has almost become proverbial
Sympathy, tact and usefulness are
among the chief weapons of the girl
whose destinations attract men

successful flight, the contract is to be-

Cripple Creek Output.

Cripple Creek, Colo.-According to
figures from the various mills and
smelter officials the output of the
mines of the Cripple Creek district for
June was 4.lG0 tons, with gross val
uation of $l,301 $50. These figures
show a slight decrease compared with
May, which is accounted for to great
extent by the fact that the PAST month
has only 30 days. In almost every in.
stance the mines of the district have
increased or are preparing to increase
their output. Almost every property
contributed its share 10 the big output.
The figures follow.

Bells.

Bells are understood to have had
their origin in China, but at so remote
time that no precise date can be
given. Their first use was to clear the
air Of evil spirits and to drive off the
storms. Old European records tell
how the tolling of bells kept the
devils from assaulting believers;
hence their connection with churches.
Bells may be traced in Europe back
to the sixth century, but were not
generally introduced into the western
church much before the eighth CEN
tury.
