Point is Under
Fire Once More
New Tricks to Punish "Plebes" for
Being on Earth Are
Invented.

NEW YORK, July 24-After examining
more thar 100 West Point cadets, under
oath, the board Of army officers appointed
to investigate hazing conditions at the
military academy submitted its report TO
Colonel Hugh Scott, the superintendent.
today.
The report was not made public, but It
deals largely with the case Of Cadet Sutton
OF Oregon, a brother Of Lieutenant Sutton
Of the United States marine corps, whose
tragic death is being Investigated at An
hapolis. While Colonel Scott and the MEM
bers Of the board would not discuss the
report, It contains reports that hazing is
stin in existence at West Point, despite
the drastic action for It's eradication.
Young Sutton was seriously injured by
being roughly handled, but during the
entire investigation he would not reveal
the ~ " those who attacked him, and
has great popularity among his
felloi 8 by HIS silence.
Two D,w tricks that the cadets indulge
in at the expense of the "~plebes' were
brought out by the board, One is an
exciting horse race" in which the
''plebes' galloped on all fours; another,
the pleasing pastime Of reciting complI-
ments to ones self from papers sent from
ones home town.

Presidents May
Meet in Texas
It is Said that Diaz Prefers San
Antonio to Ell Paso for
Greeting.

MEXICO CITY, July 23.-El impartial
publishes an article, apparently officially
inspired, In which 1t Is stated that Presl-
dent Diaz would not meet President Taft
at the border line Of El Paso, as has been
intimated in press dispatches from that
place and Washington, but that the meet
ing. II 1t took place, would occur in San
Antonio.
The article declared that the Interna-
tional club of San Antonio had been max.
ing efforts 10 bring this about, and 1t was
intimated that its success was probable.
1t IL pointed out that San Antonio is the
metropolis of Texas, the city containing
the, most Mexicans, and that 1t is more
fitting that the meeting should take place
there.
While II was admitted officially tina
communications relative to the meeting had
been passed between the state departments
of the governments, it was denied here
that anything definite has been settled.
1t Is thought that within the next twenty
days something will be decided upon, and
that before the middle of August the date
and place Of meeting will be published.

Many people are brought up to believe
that coffee is a necessity OF life. and the
strong hold that the drug has on the
system makes 1t hard TO loosen its grip
even when one realizes its Injurious
effects.
A lady In Baraboo, writes. II had used
coffee for years; II seemed one Of the
necessities OF life. A few months ago,
my health. which had been slowly fail
ing, became more impaired. and knew
that unless relief came from some source,
/ would soon be a physical wreck.
Il was weak and nervous, had sick
headaches. no ambition, and felt tired of
life. My husband was also losing his
health. He was troubled so much with
indigestion that at times he could eat
only a few mouthfuls of dry bread.
We concluded that coffee was slowly
poisoning us, and stopped II and used hot
water. We felt somewhat better, but It
wasn't satisfactory.
Finally, We saw Postum advertised.
and bought a package. l followed direc-
tions for making carefully, allowing II
TO boil twenty minutes after II came 10
the boiling point, and added cream,
