PANAMA BACHELORS ANGRY.
Only 1S7 Unmarried Girls In Xon
Regiment Arrives With I03 Bachelor

Only 1S7 Unmarried Girls In Zone.
Regiment Arrives with 703 Bachelors.
Colon. october 22.-The Isthmus OF
Panama has mutinied against the
United States Army-at least, against
the Tenth Regiment of Infantry. re-
Gently sent here and now in camp al
Las Cascades 1t is not all the Canal
Zone that is revolving. but Just the
unmarried men. Disaifection was rife,
but the coming OF the regiment pre-
cipitated the crisis.
The trouble is that the regiment
contains 7yS bachelors. who. according
to the older residents here. are young
and good looking. There already were
many bachelors on the isthmus, but by
reason OF this new immigration the
unmarried male population has been
Increased to i,1S. Against this total
there are only ISL bachelor girls. The
statistics were compiled at an indig-
nation meeting just held By the Guile
bra Bachelors Association, which in
cludes most OF the unmarried Ameri-
cans. The association is the junta for
the revolt.
After the meeting an ultimatum wa,
ordered sent to the United States.
This note demands the Immediate
withdrawal OF the regiment and the
substitution OF a like number of youns
women. The resolution sets forth the
sad solitude of the old-time bachelors
and the fear that the 1877 bachelor
girls Will be married To a like number
OF the unmarried soldiers.

WANTED TO SLEEP
Curious That Tired Preacher Should

A minister speaks of the curious eff.
feet Of Grape-Nuts food on him and
how 1t has relieved him.
You will doubtless understand how
the suffering from indigestion with
which l used to be troubled made my
work an almost uncomfortable burden;
and why it was that after my Sabbath
duties had been performed, sleep was
a stranger to my pillow till nearly
daylight.
Il had to be very careful as to what
| ate, and even with all my care ex-
perienced poignant physical distress
after meals. and my food never salts
fed me.
"Since / began the use of Grape
Nuts the benefits l have derived from
1t are very definite. l no longer suffer
from indigestion, and began to i'm
prove from the time Grape-Nuts ap
peared on our table.
II find that by eating a dish OF this
food after my Sabbath work is done,
land ] always do so now my nerves
are quieted and rest and refreshing
sleep are ensured me.
Il feel that could not possibly do
without Grape-Nuts food, now that I
know Its value. 1t is Invariably on our
table-we feel that we need 1t to make
the meal complete and our children
will eat Grape-Nuts when they cannot
be persuaded to touch anything else"
