Five Men Alleged to Have Par
tiCipated.

New York, May 21.-That an attempt
was made last night to blow up the
new bridge of the New York, New Ha-
ven and Hartford railroad over the
Harlem river at West Farm road be-
came known today. when a valise con-
tanning 10 sticks of dynamite was
found floating in the river.
An investigation followed and the
police learned that the Waterman on
the bridge had been set upon by five
men during last night when he caught
them in the act of placing a charge of
dynamite under the structure.
The Waterman succeeded in beating
them off and they fled, when he fired
several shots at them. The vaIise
fell in the river.

We cook our wheat in pure Maple syrup, just
for the children's sake.
They like Maple sugar better than anything
else that is good for them.
So use it to please them. To induce them
to prefer the best food they eat.
1t is rather expensive, but it is wse-for you,
for them, for Us.
There is no food like wheat.
Other cereals may be used, for little time
for variety. But the staple is always wheat
Whole wheat alone contains all the needed
food elements in properly balanced form.
So we use for Mapl-Flake the finest wheat
In America.
But wheat must be cooked-cooked more than
the usual-else it is half indigestibie.
The atoms must be separated-by a fierce
heat-so the digestive juices can get to them.
Not half the wheat that people eat is subject
to digestion.
The balance is wasted. 1t ferments and forms
gas. 1t leads to digestive disorders
That's why spend full So hours in prepar-
ing Mapl-Flake-
We steam-cook the wheat for six hours Think
of that
Then we cure it for days-a partial digestive
process.
Then each separate berry is faxed So thin that

Wolframite in India


Until recent time the mineral wealth
OF India, with the exception of gold.
was an unknown factor, but the nu-
merous mineral finds which have been
made In the last few years have re-
Yealed vast possibilities OF wealth. An
American mining engineer some %ime
ago obtained concession of part OF
the village OF Agargaon, in the cen
tral provinces, with a view to minir. ,
manganese. His employees while Dig

iramlte differs in appearance and con-
stltutlon from the best known specf-

Small Sugar Crop in Cuba

Consul General James L. Rodgers of
Havana states that the estimates on
the sugar crop of Cuba have fallen be-
low 100000 tons and only the most
optimistic cling to the hope of that
amount Under q recent date he re-
views the market and it's effect on
business in part as follows:
The great majority of planters and
others vitality interested assert that
$4,000 tons win represent the possible
maximum and S50,U00 tons the mini
mum There is good reason for believ-
ing that 100000 tons is not too low an
estimate. The latest sugar crop state
ment which contains absolute verif-
cation of the great deficiency. shows
q falling of of nearly 40 per cent in
the 1908 shipments and stock, as COM
pared with those of 1907 on the similar
date March /. If the same ratio of
loss is maintained the volume of the
1905 crop would be somewhat below
100000 tons
The effect of this realization of the
size OF the sugar crop and the knowI-
edge that there has been little gain
In price to the various producers on
account of their financial necessities
has already had a serious effect upon
business and the revenues of the gov
ernment are decreasing in sympathy,
WnlIe many businessmen consider the
general outlook uncertain and unprom
ising. The wholesale merchants saw
they are not importing in the usual
volume because they have not the
money and because the country store
keepers are, through caution, refusing
10 purchase goods. The general opin-
ion is certainly that this will be a bad
business year and that 1903 may be
worse"
