to be called up next Monday nigrht, but

is likely that the council will drop the

THIBUTE TO TIIE DEAD.
Author's Club of New York Remem
ber Absent Members.
New York, March 29. Each year it is
customary for the Authors club to have
upon some designated evening- a memor
ial .neeting for such members of the club
as have died during the year preceding.
Last night tribute was paid to the mem
ories of Charles Dudley Warner, Stephen
Crane, Professor Moses Colt Tyler ar.d
ex-Postmaster General William 1 il
son Among the members present were E.
C. Stedman, Richard H. Stoddard, ex
Minister Oscar S. Straus and George
Haven Putnam. Mr. Putnam, spoke of
Moses Colt Tyler.
In his eulogy upon Charles Dudley
Warner, Edward S. VanZile said thac
the striking characteristic about his
worn was its peculiarly American spirit.
A eulogy prepared by Ripley Hitchcoc't
was read by Rossiter Johnson, the club's
secretary. Its subject was Stephen
Crane. It quoted from a letter written
by Crane to Mr. Hitchcock, in which the
writer referred to New York as having
muddled him. Its admiration had made
him a jibbering- idiot. He said:
"The 'Red Badge' is no great shake3.
The violet story is quiet but let it go."
Ex-Minister Oscar S. Straus read a
eulogy upon William L.Wilson, who was
postmaster general under Cleveland.
NEIGHBORHOOD QUAKHEL.
Time and Money Spent in Trying to
Straighten It Out
A neighborhood quarrel was the cause
of a packed police court Thursday after
noon. The case was the state against
Wesley Ira, Don and Harry Wellman.
It turned out that two boys who live
near Jackson and Finney streets had a
fight over a ball game and the entire
neighborhood took sides. Wesley Ira
struck Walter Kerr and from that the
trouble started. Many witnesses were
examined and they all claimed their
fees. When it became evident that there
was little or nothing in the case it was
dismissed.
It is neighborhood quarrels which pile
up expenses for the city. The police trv
to keep them out of the court on that
account, but frequently a case similar
to the one tried yesterday will get in.
"WOULDN'T TAKE MONEY.
J. A. Lester Shows Populist That He
Didn't Sell Out
Evidently J. A. Lester, the Barber
county fusionist, who gave up his seat
in the house to W. C. Millar, Repub
lican, without a contest, could not en
dure the imputations of his party breth
ren that he had laid down and sold out.
The election committee recommended
that Lester be allowed his mileage and
expenses, aggregating $37, and Auditor
Cole sent him the warrant. The war
rant came back today with a note say
ing that he could not accept the money.
The association of grafters is shocked
that any man, should refuse money
from the state.
Lester had but two votes more than
Millar on the face of the returns. He
filed a demurrer to the seat. The two
Populist members of the elections com
mittee filed a minority report against
paying Lester the allowance given him
by the Republicans, which has resulted
in his unparalleled action of refusing the
donation.

STICK RIGHT TO IT.
And Coffee will Do You " Good and
Brown, if You are Highly Organized.
It Is remarkable how persistently men
or women will stick to a drug through
thick and thin, even after they become
convinced that the drug is slowly killing
them.
This is illustrated thousands of times
every day. A sample case Is that of F.
L. Wolford, of Columbus, O., who says
that all his life, since a boy when he be
gan drinking coffee, he has been any
thing but robust, or even in what might
be termed good health. He has tried all
sorts of drugs and tonics, and consulted
many doctors. He quit tobacco, avoid
ed all intoxicating drinks, stopped eating
pastry, and took life easy as far as
work was concerned, but the same old
trouble continued and he could not get
well.
He stuck to the coffee because he said
"I could not do without it. The climax
came just about a year ago. I -went all
to pieces with nervous prostration, neu
rasthenia and insomnia. The physician
absolutely demanded that I cease drink
ing coffee, and put me on Postum Food
Coffee.
I very much disliked to think that I
must take something in place of coffee,
but to my surprise I found that poptum
was so delicious and so exactly iifce first
class Java coffee in taste, that I got on
with it very well.
After a fe,v days I began, to notice that
I craved Postum as much as I had the
old coffee, and the longer I. Use Postum
the more satisfied I become with it, un
til today I look upon Postum as the
'real thing' and the ordinary coffee as
the 'substitute.'
I would not give one cup of Postum
for all the coffee that grows in Central
America, not only as a drink, but for
what it has done for my health. I have
built up again until I am in better health
than I ever was, and owe the entire
praise to Postum. It is simply a case of
leaving off a poison and using a health
ful foo-d drink, containing powerful ele
ments of nutrition.
Many among my own friends have
quit coffee and begun using Postum Food
Coffee.
Richard Wilhelm. S23 E. Main St., and
his wife, both suffered from dyspep
sia, but were cured by quitting coffee
and using Postum Food Coffee.
James Neukamp, a grocer on E. Ful
ton St.. had liver complaint. He has
been , greatly benefited by leaving off
coffee and taking Postum.
I can give you the names of a number
of others who have either been entirely
cured or greatly benefited by the use of

There are only two band masters in
the world who bear the honors and title
of lieutenants, these are Lieut. Dan God
frey of England (now retired), and Lieur.
Wm H. Santelmann, of our own Ma
rin.? band In Washington. For one hun
dred years the band leader at Washing
ton had to be satisfied with the simple
title of chief musician of the Mar'ne
cores, but by act of congress in Marci..
1S9?, Leader Santelmann was made a
firs', lieutenant. Not only was he thU3
honjred, but the band was increased in
number to 74 men, and the pay of all
verv largely Increased ,so that the su
perior band that the official frienda of
good music had labored for so many
yeais was at last made possible. The
very best of musical talent has conse
quently become possible, and the United

A Protestant Episcopal Diocese to Ba
Established.
New Tork, March 29 Having been au
thorized to do so by the Church club,
George MacCuIloch Miller, the president
of the club, announces the names of the
members of a committee which will seek
to enlist support for a movement to have
a Protestant Episcopal diocese establish
ed in the Philippines. The personnel of
the committee is:
Beverly Chew, John H. Cole, George S.
Bowdoin, Colonel William Jay, Silas
McBee, Captain Alfred T. Mahan. Henry
Lewis Morris, Charles Steele, Francis
Lynde Stetson, J. Howard VanAmrlnge
and George S. Zabriskie.
Mr. Miller will be an ex-offlcio member
of the committee which he says will
communicate with Protestant Episcopal
clubs in about twenty cities of the
United States in behalf of the proposed
diocese. The committee may make a
recommendation at the general Protest
ant Episcopal convention in San Fran
cisco, in October, and the convention
mav decide to establish the diocese. Mr.
Miller hoped the clubs would become in
terested in the movement to such an ex
tent that a fund for the support of the
diocese would be raised. Such a fund
would enable the church to establish the
diocese without drawing upon his mis
sionary funds.

WAY OUT OF MUDDLE.
Agricultural College Regents Ques-.
tion Solved by Attorney General.
The legislature made a mess of chang
ing the board of regents of the 'am
Agricultural college so that the presi
dent, ex-officio, should be a member it
the board, because on Wednesday th-i
governor discovered that the new hw
repealed the old law and did not pro
vide for the immediate appointment f
a full board. The attorney general's
office found a way out of the dlflieulty
and recommended it to tie governor. V
that appointments can be made that
will hold under either the old law or tha
new law.
Assistant Attorney General J. S. v et
solved the Chinese puzzle. In his opin
ion he ruled that the four regents named
by the governor a few weeks ago fr I.
Coburn, J. S. McDowell. R. J. Brook
and Senator S. J. Stewart were not
legally appointed, and that the governor
should name three out of the number
and put the president of the college on
to take the place of the fourth one. In
order to straighten things out in ti
future he ruled that the governor should
also reappoint William Hunter. J. M.
Satterthwaite and E. T. Fairt hilds for a
period of two' years. Th se three were
named two years aeo for four year
terms. A reappointment under the new
law would make things regular. Tw
years from now the governor will, there
fore, have three regents to appoint for
a term of four years and three f r a
term of two years, providing Governor
Stanley follows the advice laid down iti
the opinion of the attorney general ren
dered today.
