When Eating Causes Colds.

II one who has caught cold will
take thought, he will often find that
he has prepared himself for the in.
lection by some tax on his physical
condition-some extra work which
has depressed his bodily powers, some
worry which has preyed upon his
mind, some loss Of sleep, some undue
exposure to atmospheric changes, or
some dietary indiscretion, says a
writer in the Youths Companion.
For indiscreet eating is one Of the
most prolific and yet the least recog-
nized of all the predisposing causes
Of a cold.
Let the hearty eaters Of rich food,
who suffer from repeated colds, try
course Of abstinence during the
coming winter, and they will become
convinced Of the truth of these re-
marks. In this case the proof Of the
pudding is in the not eating OF 1t.

Latson on Walking.

DR.. Latson says: "A correct walk
is the rarest accomplishment / can
think of. Handsome faces are rare,
good figures are much more rare; but
as to gait and carriage, out of 800 we
shall find 30 or 40 handsome faces,
and perhaps a dozen good figures. But
certainly in that number we shall
rarely find more than one Or two peo-

Frivolous Forty.

Much Of the dullness which afflicts
us in society just now is due to the
extreme seriousness of the younger

over 40 who seem able to frivol. The
others are interested in politics, phil
losophy or philanthropy. They would
sooner debate on ethics than dance

 A repetition of the Coilinwood hor- TOT. was possibly averted by only q quarter of an hour in the time of the starting of the fire. as the children were on their way to school and some were playing In the yard whom 1t wAs discovered. At o'clock when the school pupils should have been in their seats the main part of the building was a mass of flames.
 Superintendent Beemer and Principal White were the only persons in the building when the fire broke out. the other teachers not having arrived. The two men ran to the stairway leading to the attic and were driven back by e shower of sparks and a great volume of smoke.
 The fire had evidently caught from A defective flue of the furnace chim- ney. where 1t ran up through the attic.
 Before the fire department could get a stream on the building, the flames had gutted the attic, dropped to the floor below. attacked the east wing and was roaring up the big central tower. The bell fell inside of fifteen minutes. The building is a total loss.

HITCHCOCK ON TRIAL
COMEDIAN APPEARS IN COURT TO
 ANSWER CHARGES.
When an Adjournment Was Taken Late Yesterday Afternoon, Only Five Jurors Had Been See
 cured fin Case.

New York, March 1o.-Raymond Hitchcock, the comedian, was put on trial in the criminal branch of the Su- preme Court before Justice Blanchard on an indictment growing out of charges preferred by 15-year-old girl.
 The case had been assigned for trial several weeks ago. but there had been several postponements for various causes on motion of the defense. An effort to have still another adjourn ment was made today by Hitchcock's counsel, but Justice Blanchard over ruled the motion and ordered that the selection of jury be commenced with out delay. ~.t
 Hitchcock arrived at the court room early, accompanied by his wife. who Is known on the stage as Flora Zabelle, and his counsel. Mrs. Hitchcock was not permitted to enter the court room, however. but was escorted to the ante room in which Evelyn Nesbit Thaw spent much of her time during the trial of her husband. Hitchcock is repre- sented by John B. Stanchheld. H. J. Gray, Herman Fromme, and Carl Fisch- er-Hansen. The prosecution is in the hands of Assistant District Attorneys Garvan and Turnbull.
 The complainant against the actor is Ellen Won Hagen, a 15-year-old girl.
 On orders from Justice Blanchard, all the doors leading to the court room were closely guarded and only those having some direct interest in the case were permitted to enter. When recess was taken. only two jurors had been selected. Both were married men.
 Five jurors had been selected when the court adjourned until tomorrow and the counsel expressed the hope that the jury box might be filled at the morning session and the testimony be- gan in the afternoon.

 SEN. McLAURIN ON CURRENCY Blames Republican Party
 For Panic. PHILIPPINES A MILESTONE Scores Navy for Useless Jaunt of
 Fleet. Declares that Principle of Government Guarantee of National Bank Deposits is Ominous and
 Dangerous.

Washington, March 10.--"My chief financial operations have been confined to the support of large family on a small income" said Senator Anseim J. McLaurin. of Mississippi. in speaking on the pending currency bill in the Senate today.
 After disavowing special knowledge of the financial questions. Mir. Me- Laurin declared recent financial dis turbance had been caused by 'the in- competent, inefficient and misguided ad- ministration of the government by the Republican Party"
 The panic of 1903, he added. also was the harvest of the Republican admin istration from 1889 to 1896. and the prosperity which followed 1898 was the harvest of the Democratic admihistra- tion from 1893 to 1897. Commenting on various causes of the panic, he re- ferI ed to the question of the Philip pines, which he said never had been worth anything to the world. and nev- CT would be.
 They were millstone hung about the neck of Spain," he added, land they have been curse to us."
 He condemned the increase in the standing army and said a fleet of war ships had been sent on a useless jaunt of many thousand miles at great ex- pense Ito frighten the souls of fearful adversaries and to engage in the Chris. tian pastime of witnessing bull fights"
 Mir. McLaurin condemned the prac- tice of making loans on the part of the Treasury to banks to tide over times of stringency. He declared that the principle of government guarantees of national bank deposits was vicious. He thought 1t would be the better to have the Treasury notes Issued to the banks in place of their circulation. In this way the loss or destruction of the notes would rebound to the gain of the government that gives them efficiency as money instead of to gain of the banhss that can give them no circula- tion without the Government bond en- dorsement. ,S
 These Treasury notes, he said, should be put in circatAficn by Issuing them to any one who.had United States bonds to put up as security, provided per cent should be charged for the issue. Cotton. also. could be used as 6 basis for the issuance of Treasury notes un- til the cotton was converted into gold from Europe, to retire the Treasury notes.
 He condemned gambling in futures, and concluded by declaring that the banks do not want the proposed cur rency legislation.
