temporaneously the inadvisablllty of federal

DES MOINES AS A SEE CITY
Probability More Remote Than Ever
Coadjutor for Cosgrove.
DT7BUQI7B. IOWA.It is learned that at the
recent conference of the suffragan bishops of
the archdiocese of Dubuque it was not recom
mended to Rome that Des Moines be made a see
city, as was supposed in some quarters. It was
recommended that a coadjutor be named for
Bishop Cosgrove of Davenport, with the right
to. succession. With the selection of a coadjutor
the possibility of Des Moines being made a see
city becomes very remote.
Arehblshoup Keane has refused to lense the
Iknd owned by the church on Main street for
file erection of a $100,000 depurtment store, as
\i contends that the department Ptore is a curse
so the average-sl7.ed town.
All arrangements have been perfected for the
pclchrdtlon of. the golden Jubilee of St. Clara's
college, Slnsinawa, Wis., on Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday. Archbishop Ireland will take
prominent part in the Jubilee. Mt. St. Joseph's
college will hold its commencement exercises on

State Moves for Dissolution of Church
Federation of America.
ELDORA, IOWA.The Church Federation of
America, a fraternal insurance organization of
this city, has been ordered by State Auditor
Carroll to stop doing business. The papers In
the case have been transmitted to the attorney
general, who will ask for a receiver for the con
cern and its liquidation. Revocation of the
certificate was determined upon because the
company's membership is below the legal re
quirement.
The new statute fixes the minimum member
ship of concerns of this character at 500. It
appears that the company never had to exceed
800 members in good standing. M. G. Albrook,
a retired preacher, has been Its general super
intendent. B. H. Lundy of this city is the gen
Aral secretary.

SISTER'S TRICK
But All Came Out Right.
How a sister played a trick that
brought rosy health to a coffee fiend
is an interesting tale:
"I was a coffee fienda trembling,
nervous physical wreck, yet clinging
to the poison that stole away my
strength because for a fleeting moment
it stimulated my weakened powers.
I mocked at Postum and would have
none of it.
"One day my sister, Mrs. U. S.
Showalter, substituted a cup of crisp,
hot Postum for my morning cup of
coffee but did not tell me what it
was. I noticed the richness of it and
remarked that the coffee tasted fine
but my sister did not tell me I was
drinking Postum for fear I might not
take any more.
"She kept the secret and kept giv
ing me Postum instead of coffee until
I grew stronger, more tireless, got a
better color in my sallow cheeks and
a clearness to my eyes, then she told
me of the health-giving, nerve
strengthening life-saver she had given
me in place of my morning coffee.
From that time I became a disciple of
Postum and no words can do justice
to the good this cereal drink can do.
I will not try to tell it for only after
having used it can one be convinced
of its merits." Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Ten days trial shows Postum's
power to rebuild what coffee has de
stroyed. There's a reason.
Look in each pkg. for the famous
little book, "The Road to Wellville."

Assessment of Concerns Holding As
sets of a Million or More Com
promised by the Board of Review
on the Basis of $50,000, Returning
a Tax of About $1,000.
Special to The Journal.
Marquette, Mich., June 13.Rather than
drive them out of the state, as threat
ened, the Marquette city board of review
has put fo\?r of J. J. Hill's companies on
the assessment roll for $50,000.
The assets of the companies consist of
ore lands near Hibbing, on the Mesaba
range, and are said to be worth more than
$1,000,000. It was intimated if this val
uation was fixed the concerns would pull
out and incorporate in West Virginia, thus
saddling their heavy tax on the city it- i
self unless the county board gave relief.
The taxes on the $50,000 will amount
to about $1,000, and this is satisfactory
to the companies.
