My mother was Just the same way.
We all drink Postum now, and have
not had any coffee in the house for
two years and we all are well.
A neighbor of mine, a great coffee
drinker, was troubled with pains in
her side for years and was an invalid.
She was not able to do her work and
could not even mend clothes or do any
thing at all where she would have to
bend forward. If she tried to do
little hard work she would get such
pains that she would have to lie down
for the rest of the day.
II persuaded her at last to stop
drinking coffee and try Postum, and
she did so, and she has used Postum
ever since; the result has been that
she can do her work, can sit for a
whole day and mend and can sew on
the machine and she never feels the
least bit Of pain in her side. In fact,
she has got well and 1t shows cot

UNITED Press Leased Wire Servlce.1
NEW YORK, July 6.-Financial
America in its issue Monday will say:
The fact that three weeks of turmoil
at national conventions had ended on
Tuesday, when the presidential candi-
date for the democratic party was de
cided on, was almost forgotten before
the week ended. but at the same time
politics seem bound to rule the specu-
lative situation for many months to
come. There are those in the street
who profess to believe that both the
speculative and the investment ele-
ment have accepted the situation al
ready in it's worst light and that the
movement of prices will be hereafter
ruled by the crop outlook. This is a
false conclusion. No matter what the
crops may be, the various develop
ments in the presidential campaign
are bound at frequent intervals to in
fluence values and it is to be assumed
that the industries of nationwide
character will be restricted.

The Grain Market.

CHICAGO, July Grain which was
badly needed for spring wheat was
furnished in abundance this week, and
the temperature was encouraging to
the coming crop. 1t was evident to-
day that the traders believed the rain
had not been in excess of what was
needed, as selling continued until the
closing today. July wheat lost AS
cents during the week, closing today at
S1.o4A. September lost six cents and
closed today at $685..
In Kansas alone, it was predicted
this week. the crop of corn would ex-
coed that of last year by 100000
bushels.
There was decided weakness in
the oats market and a radical adjust
ment of prices.

lA PORTE HAS BEEN
 BROUGHT 10 TUCSON
Man Who Confessed in Chicago to Old
 Murder Returned to Arizona

TUCSON, Nov. 27.-Stephen La Porte, who confessed to the Chicago police that he was the murderer of Walter Taylor has been brought to Tucson in the custody of Paul E. Fernald, a deputy sheriff of this county, who happened to be in Chi cago at the time. La Porte has not yet been questioned by County At torney George o. Hilzinger about his confession.
 It has developed that La Porte was not arrested in Chicago as suspici- ous character, but that he voluntarily went to the police and confessed, from which it appears he was moved by his conscience. In addition to that, he was practically penniless and discouraged.
 When Fernald read in the Chicago papers that La Porte has confessed he wired to Sheriff John Nelson for in structions to bring the prisoner along, as the officer had planned to come to Tucson anyway. The instruc tions were duly sent, and the deputy started with his prisoner.
 Taylor was shot in 1909, on the Shumaker ranch, and although La Porte was arrested at that time, it was impossible to fasten the crime on him.

This afternoon the football teams of the universities of the two new states. Arizona and New Mexico, will engage in the fourth mutual tussle in their history. In 1908, the cup contest was started, and every year but one since then there has been a red hot game. The date. Thanksgiving has been set aside or the ArizOna-New Mexico an- nual football game, and from now on that occasion will become more and more of an event in the lives of the undergraduates and their loyal friends Not only will the New Mexico-Arizona game become one of prominence in a football way but it takes on an added interest this year owing to the fact that the teams are now representatives of the two newest states.
 Arizona should win this afternoon by a small score. The only way to figure on the winner is to place them side by each on the basis of their games with the New Mexico College of Ari- culture, at Mesilla Park. The college beat the university 27 to two weeks ago this Saturday. and won from Ari- zOna two weeks before that by 20 to o, making the possibilities close for the Tucson team to carry the day How ever, there is time or a lot of improve ment in a month, and the New Mexico team may have bettered it's bucking av- craze enough to wipe out those seven little points, which stand between the equality of the squads and superiority on ArizOna's part.
 Briefly, the history of interstate foot ball is this. New Mexico has always been a hot football institution, taking | on recklessly all the schools that came within reach. Partly due to the geni- l us of Lawrence Lee, who managed the

LaWyer Patrick
 Is GiUen PdYdOn
 By G0veyn0r Dix
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCHI

ALBANY. N. Y. Nov 27.-Albert T. Patrick, who is serving a life sentence in Sing Sing prison for the murder of William Marsh Rice all aged millionaire. in New York City, on September 23, 1900, was pardoned tonight by Governor Dix.
 Patrick. who was saved from the electric chair by the late Governor Higgins in December. 1906, made a most remarkable fight for his free dom He is a lawyer by profession and protested when Governor Hig- gins commuted the death sentence to life Imprisonment, declaring that the governor had no legal right to cancel the original death sentence and inn pose the punishment of life impris- Cnment.
 In saving Patrick from the death chair Governor Higgins gave these reasons: Tt is not charged that Patrick committed murder in person, but procured the act. He was convict ed principally on the testimony of Charles F. Jones, who confessed tha: he murdered his master while the latter was asleep at the instigation of Patrick. Jones by his testimony purchased immunity at the trial and escaped punishment.
 Neither this fact alone nor the re- view of any question of fact already passed upon by courts at some stage of the proceedings seem to warrant interfering with the judgment of death pronounced upon the defendant; but three of the seven judges of the court of appeals are so strongly of the opinion that errors were com mitted at the trial which were sub stantially prejudicial to the rights of Patrick that I feel the death penalty, under the circumstances, ought not to be inflicted"
 Patrick was sentenced originally on April ', 1902 to die in the week of May ,. and immediately taken to the Sing Sing death house
 At no time during his long incar- ceratiOn in Sing Sing. four years of which he spent in the death house, had Patrick given up the hope oof securing liberty. Letter after letter has been received at the executive chamber. urging that he be pardoned and each succeeding governor since O'Dell was requested to extend ex- ecutive clemency Governor Higgins was so impressed with the prisoner plea that he granted three respites and eventually commuted the sen tcnce of death to life imprisonment Patrick has been in prisn since 1902

Stands Convicted of Max ing Statements Reflect ing on Integrity of Off cials and Empires and of Alleging Crookedness.

NEW YORK, Nov 27-Horace $. Fogel, former president of the Phila- delphia National league baseball club is forever excluded from participation in the councils of the National league This is the decision of the magnates of the league after six hours consider ation today of the charges that FogeI made statements reflecting on the in tegrity of the National league.
 Of the seven charges. the club own CTS found the Philadelphia president guilty of five and dismissed the two relating to privileged communications. Fogel had no sooner read the decision than he countered with a defiant state ment Before the meetings began he had expected such a decision, he de clared.
 "The jury was packed against us" he asserted. T shall represent the Phila- delphia club of the National league as long as I feel inclined to do so. No one will disturb me from doing sO.'
 Fogel said his attorney, Mir. Shields. had suggested after an hours decision that he withdraw and resort to the courts on the grounds there was baseball political conspiracy against me to get some one else"
 T said" Fogel said, T owed it to my baseball reputation. which I consider spotless. to fight the case to a finish. had procured witnesses for each charge to re1ute overwhelmingly tns testimony of the opposition. Mir. Shields still contended that it was q waste of time and that I might as well resort to the inevitable. I still contend I should meet the issue, because I had suggested at the start that an open meeting be held"
 The charges of which Fogel was found guilty were that he had accused the St Louis club of placing the weak est team against New York; had yer bally attacked the integrity of the Ma tionaI league race of 1912, had inti- mated that the race was "CroOked' at the same time charging that the league umpires had given all the close decisions to New York, that in an article in the Chicago Evening Post under date of September 28, Fogel had made accusa- tions against President Lynch and charged his umpres with conclusion; that in a letter dated october F, which F0gel had sent to other seven Nation al league club owners, he had declared the league race of 1912 was not hon est, that President Lynch and the um- pires were incompetent and that Fogel had made verbal and written charges reflecting upon a specific National ] league umpire.
