William Skivington, twenty-four years old, and John Skivington, his brother, who 1s about four years his junior, were com- mitted to Jail by Judge Kimball today for @ preliminary hearing in the Police Court next Thursda The particular charge against them was housebreaking at the store of L. A. Dellwig, at 2d and C streets northeast. This store was broken open last Monday morning. The police expect to have a number of other charges against them next week. On this aecount bond in the case was fixed at $2,000. Policemen Mudd and Sautmyer of the sixth precinct arrested them, and De- tectives Flather and Browne are assisting in the Investigation of charges against them. It is alleged by the police that the defendants and others have been frequent- ly committing robberies at stores during recent weeks. Several establishments have been robbed during the past ten days, as heretofore published in The Star, although the plunder was not very valuable ‘The officers have recovered some of the alleged stolen property and the younger of the prisoners has made a statement that the police think will assist them in the in- vestigation. Other arrests may be made before the Skivingtons are tried. William Skivington has been arrested several times and has served sentences in the District jail. On the last presidential inauguration occasion he was apprehended for robbing a bath house and was sent to jail for about a year. Since then he was arrested for the theft of a bicycle belong- ing to Representative Shafroth. he pris- oners are sons of a former guide at the Capitol. ——_——_—_ Death of William Bremer. Mr. William Bremer, one of the most efficient clerks in the War Department, died at his residence, 1834 13th street, at 4n early hour this morning, after a short illness of heart disease. Mr. Bremer was born in Germany, but spent the better part of his life in this country, settling in In- diana. He was in the general mounted service from October 20, 1870, to September 16, 1878, on which last named date he was transferred to duty in the War Department as a general service clerk. In July, 1874, he was appointed a civilian clerk of class one. and by close attention to duty and merit he rose through the various grades until he became an $1,800 clerk August 1, 1898. He was in that grade at the time of his death. He was thoroughly conyersant with the business methods of the War Department, and was particularly expert in all the de- tails of the enlistment branch of the ad- jutant general's office, of which he acted as chief for many years. He was a member of the Masonic order and also a member of the Royal Arcanum. He leaves a wife and a married daughter, Mrs. Hunt.

George E. Adams, the contractor, who was recently arrested on a charge of steal- ing $240 from his cousin, Miss Bertie Kil- Man of 3412 P street, Georgetown, as pub- lished in The Star at the time, was given a preliminary examination in the Police court yesterday. There was a fire in the house, and it is alleged the money was taken from a safe just before the fire. It was contended by the prosecution that paper and not money was burned in the safe. Judge Kimball heard the testimony, and held Adams in the sum of $700 for the grand jury. FINANCIAL, Beer In Egypt Dr. J. P. Mabafty drink in ancient Fj says that beer was 2 favorite pt. Sensible people, the old Egyptians—but how do yon suppose they kept it cool? Perhaps that explains why the Pyramids were buflt; they would have made fine cold-storage houses. Just imagine Pharaoh and Moses saunter- ing home in the cool of the evening and stopping at a Pyramid for a “‘schooner," or Perhaps a “Pony” They don’t build pyramids nowadays to keep beer in, but they build pyramids every day—pyra- mids on Wheat, on Cotton, on Pork, or on Stocks. Say! what a money-maker a Pork Pyramid would have been, starting around $10.00, and doubling at every 25e. advance; if you sturted with $100.00 You could have been $200,000 ahead, when Pork got to $12.75 per barrel.

YANTED (Rooms) WANTED (Situations) Axks for Lenient Treatment. “Not guilty,” was the plea of Robert Cunningham, an inmate of the Soldiers’ Home, when called upon in the Police Court today to answer a charge of disor- derly conduct. “The old man was drunk last night,” Po- liceman Adams said, “and I thought he threw a bottle on the pavement. Upon in- vestigation I found that he had thrown away his watch. I asked him why he had done so, and he cursed and abused me.” “What is the explanation of your con- duct last night?” Judge Scott inquired. “I had a cheap watch that wouldn't keep time,” answered the defendant, “and I threw it away. I presume I had been drinking. What I want to ask is that your honor be as easy on me as you can. I paid a fine last week, and I'll also get punished when I return to the hom “The Soldiers’ Home is a good place for you,” the judge told the defendant, “and I can’t see what pleasure you get in coming to the city and getting drunk.” A fine of $5 was imposed. Se Eclipses the Theme. An interesting lecture on “Eclipses” was given last evening by Prof. F. H. Bigelow before the National Geographic Society in National Rifles’ Hall. The lantern slide illustrations helped the large audience to follow more readily the exposition of the subject. As he was a member of a party that went to Africa to observe a former eclipse his account of his experience was of special interest in view of the coming eclipse the 28th instant, which the lecturer discussed at some length. At the conclu- sion of the lecture Prof. Bigelow gave a serles of views of the principal cities of the Transvaal and of the house in which Napoleon spent his days while a prisoner at St. Helena. Mr. Alexander Graham Bell, president of the society, also spoke. A CASE OF “TREMENS” CAN BE BROUGHT ON BY COFFEE. “It 1s a well-known fact that one can bring on delirium tremens just as surely by the excessive nse of coffee as of whisky, and the coffee habit is just 48 much a condition of slavery as the whisky habit. ‘To be sure, if one has constitution enough to stand the effects of cither coffee or whisky and prefers to continue thelr use, that might be a question for them to decide.” So says Mrs. Amy K. Glass of Rolfe, Ia:, who continues: ‘My mother never drank coffee until In middle life. It produced an obstinate case of dysentery, which could not be checked with medicines until she gave up coffee. She is now sixty-five years old, and welcomes the Postum Gereal Food Coffee for a warm drink at breakfast. It has made her well and ruddy, where before she was ill and lacking the appearance of good red blood which she now shows. “I regard Postum as the greatest blessing to may- kind. It is a curious condition to hear temperance lecturers talk to people about the Mquor habit, When frequently they themselves are slaves to the coffee habit.’ Postum Cereal Food Coffee, when thoroughly bofled, yields 2 perfect breakfast beverage, beautl- ful in its rich golden brown color, with a ripe; crisp, toothsome flavor, while the ingredients are such that nervous systems are butlt up*by the ac- tion of small molecules of Phosphate of Potash ob- tained from cereals, without which the system ean- uot make brain matter and the gray substance that fills the nerve centers all over the body. The dis- continuance of coffee and the change to Postum Food Coffee therefore works at both ends, for the good of the user. A small piece of butter the size of two peas, placed in the pot, will prevent Postum from boiling over, FINANCIAL. | FINANCIAL. AMERIC, N SECURITY AND TRUST Co, Lowest rates for best service.
