Grief That Kills.

"My poor boy" said the beneficent old clergyman, who had encountered a young waif sobbing in the streets, what ails you? Some case of dire distress has touched your heart chords, no doubt"

a constant contributor to the maga zines. Her books and articles are of strong moral tone. wholesome and ele- vating, and it was for this reason that the officials of Notre Dame conferred the medal on her.
 The Laetare medal takes it's name from the fourth Sunday of Lent, on which it is always awarded. The cus- tom of giving it is modelled on the an- cient observance followed by the pope of sending a golden rose as mark Of especial honor to sovereigns and other notable persons.
 The gift of the medal is confined to members of the Roman Catholic church in the United States. It is large disk of pure gold, beautifully enameled and chased, and bears some appropriate de- sign, which changes from year to year. and which is suited to the profession or line of work for which the recipient is distinguished. Surrounding the de- sign appears in Latin the motto: Truth is mighty and shall prevail"
 This is the only time in its history for the medal to go to the south. It was first given in 1883 to John Gill mary Shea, historian. Then followed Patrick J. Keeley, architect; Eliza Allen Starr, art critic; Gen. John New ton, civil engineer; Patrick ". Hickey, editor; Anna Hanson Dorsey, author; William J. Onahan, publicist; Daniel Dougherty, orator and pub licist; Maj. Henry F. Brownson, sol- dier and scholar; Patrick Donahue, ed itor and philanthropist; Augustin Daily, theatrical manager; Anna T. Sadlier, author; Gen. William S. Rosecrans, soldier; Thomas Addis Emmet, physi- elan; Timothy B. Howard, jurist; John A. Creighton, philanthropist; William Bourke Cochran, lawyer and states man; John B. Murphy, surgeon; Thomas B. Fitzpatrick, merchant and philanthropist; Dr. Francis Quinlan, surgeon; Katherine Eleanor Conway, author and editor; James c. Monaghan, publicist and educator.

FOX MADE LIGHTNING MOVE.

No wild animal ever made a more successful fight for freedom against greater odds than did big red fox recently captured on the Chester Brook farm, in Chester valley, and imprisoned in an icehouse at the King of Prussia inn. The fox was caught while Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, Jack Moran and Jack Ward were using the inn as training quarters for coming pugilistic encounters.
 One afternoon the three prizefight- CTS, none of whom had ever seen a wild fox, thought they would take a look at the prisoner The small door which leads into the dark cave of the icehouse was carefully opened, but before a space of more than a few inches had been made and while the eyes of the visitors were still unac customed to the darkness inside. the fox made break for liberty. All three men jumped for him at once as he came through the crack of the door but reynard was quicker even than Philadelphia Jack. The fox dashed like a red flash through the tangle ot legs, bit one hand outstretched tt stop him md raced away for his home

."coFFEE DOESN'T HURT ME"
Tales That Are Told.

q was one of the kind who wouldn't believe that coffee was hurting me-" says N. Y. woman. You just couldn't convince me it's use was connected with the heart and stomach trouble suffered from most of the time.
 My trouble finally got so bad had to live on milk and toast almost entirely for three or four years. Still I loved the coffee and wouldn't believe it could do such damage.
 What I needed was to quit coffee and take nourishment in such form as my stomach could digest.
 q had read much about Postum, but never thought it would fit my case until one day decided to quit coffee and give it trial and make sure about it. Sc I got package and carefully followed the directions.
 Soon began to get better and was able to eat carefully selected foods without the aid of pepsin or other di- gestants and it was not long before I was really a new woman physically.
 "Now I am healthy and sound, can eat anything and everything that comes along and I know this wonder 1ul change is all due to my having quit coffee and got the nourishment needed through this delicious Postum.
 My wonder is why everyone don't give up the old coffee and the troubles that go witt. 1t and build themselves up as have done, with Posturn." Easy to prove by 10 days trial of Postum in place of coffee. The reward is big.

Niantic EeIs and Crabs Dying.

Men who have followed fishing for a livelihood in Mantle river for almost all their life are up against curious problem just now and their years of experience fail to assist them in reaching any definite conclusion as to the reason for the death of eels and fish in the river. Several fishermen said that eels were quite scarce in the river and that many dead eels were found. Crabs, too, seemed for some reason or other to be dying, quite, a number having been picked up dead or nearly so There is no offensive or injurious matter entering the river and no one seems to know any reason for the fish passing out. There were several boats out aeiing the other day but every fisherman had the same tale to delivery few eels in the rives East Lyme Correspondent New Lon Aon Day.

Not Our Discovery.

The Greek, Eratosthenes, 250 B. C., taught the doctrine of the rotundity of the earth, and the ideas of the sphere, it's poles, axis, the equator, arctic and antarctic circles, equinoc- tial points andthe solstices were quite generally entertained by the wise men of that time. There were plenty of men in Rome. therefore, who were prepared to talk about the earth as a sphere and to make globes illustrating their ideas.

The effort being made by the union in Mississippi to consolidate all the warehouses in the state under one cor poration seems to be in the right di- rection.

CITY OFFICIALS
60 TO MEETING

There was not a city official at his
office in the city and county building
yesterday-that is not a head of a de
partment nor a near-head of a depart
ment. All were at the American party
convention pulling wires. John 3. More
ton and 3. s. Rives of the recorders of
flee were up at the Salt Lake theatre
trying to get the nomination for Rives
for recorder. Rudolph Alff, auditor, was
there with both feet for the third term
nomination. telling what he will do If
Gle cted to the office again. Gideon Sni-
der city treasurer, was not missed at the
treasurer's office, for he has not aver
aged two hours q day in the office since
he was elected two years ago. Frank
Godbe has been treasurer in reality.
Harper j. Dinniny. city attorney, was
there with his assistants, p. j, DAILY and
Ed Rogers, and grabbed the nomination
again for city attorney. L. G. Kelsey, city
engineer, and George Clancy. first as
sistant i'm the Kelsey machine, were work.

his position back again in case Brans
ford is elected this fall Tom Holiday,
superintendent of waterwOrks, was at the
convention as a delegate, and Jake RAJ

for BransfOrd.
Some of the officials were there as dele
egates, but the others simply cOuldn t

over to the girls in the Office-who gen.

WHO GOT THE POLE?
Most Sensible Americans Are Willing
to Accord Honor to Both Cook
and Peary-A Question of
Equipment and Food
Supplies.


The question is, not who got the
pole but who got there first?"
Most sensible Americans are willing
to give both Commander PeaTy and Dr.
Cook all the honors that are due to the
intrepid explorers who braved the arc
tic regions to reach the north pole. They
are willing to await the conclusions of
the scientific world after all the records
and proofs are presented. There is plen-
" Of standing room" at the pOle-nO
excuse for cTOwding or pushing. 1t is
glory enough to have the distinction
fall to Americans.
In the meantime the people are most
interested in learning the details of the
dash through the ice-bound wastes of
the frozen north. How did they get
through? What did they eat? What
kind of food best sustained life and
strength on such a journey? Certain it
is that reaching the north pole was a
question of food and equipment.
The public knows little about the ma
ture of the food supplies on which Com
mander PeaTy and DR.. Cook reached the
goal Of their ambition. 1t is known
however, that Commander Peary took
with him $50 boxes of Triscuit (the
Shredded Wheat Wafer), which were
placed on board the Roosevelt" before
it left New York -harbOr in July, 1905
This food will not only sustain life and
strength, but it will keep indefinitely in
any climate. Those who eat Shredded
Wheat Biscuit every morning for break
fast land there are thousands who dO)
will readily believe that this food played
an important Part in supplying the
strength and endurance that were need
ed to finally crown with success the
many polar expeditions of this great

GOODMAN APPEALS
TO COUNCILMEN

Now that the American party meetings
are over, it s probable that the city
council will get together tonight for the
NEE sting which has been put off since
Monday. The chief matter Of importance
10 come before the council will be the
communication from City Auditor Ru-
dO!ph Aft, disnIssing Sam +. Goldman,
license collector, and naming Frank KIM
ball to fill the position.
The dismissal of Goldman came from
Aft as result of the sensational charges
of Ida NJ GOdnlan. divorced wife Of the
license collector, that Goldman attacked
her in the OFT drug store in Third South
street week ago and attempted to strike
her with a blackjack. Aft has no power
to dismiss a deputy, according to Ordi-
nance, without the consent of the COun-
ell. Yesterday when Goldman showed uD
for work Aft ordered him out Of the Of
flee and declared he did not want him
around any mOTe.
Godman's friends declare they Will de-
feat Aft when the matter comes before
the city council tonight. 1t is claimed
votes to defeat the Alff communication
and that GOlman will remain as license
collector until the first of the year, at
least, when the next appointment will be
made by the new mayor.
No report Of the police and prison com .
mittee will be heard in regard to the +.
s. Ferns from resolution regarding slot ma
chimes and demanding that the chief OF
ponce enforce tlf law DE aTT6SunS saloon
and cigar men who maintain machines.
This viii be because the committee has
held no meeting since the meeting of the
city council ten days ago. The matter
will be taken up at the committee meet
ings Thursday night
The protest of the property owners and
residents on Ninth and Tenth avenues
regarding the grades proposed to be es-
tG blished by the city will also be read to
the council The new grades would low
or the street and sidewalk levels from
few inches to about y feet and would thus
greatly iniITe the value of the property
and wholly destroy some. The residents
are willing to have the grades changed,
but ask for a compromise and that new
grades be established by the city engineer
and that terraces be allowed for to save
the value Of their property and at the
same time beautify the northeast bench.
