A most inter- esting programme was rendered and the Jewish Orphan Asylum band played seiec- tions throughout the afternoon. Mrs. Austin Sperry’s “Illustrations of Old-Time Industry” were enthusiastically received. Pianoforte selections fessor Robert Tolme also elicited hearty applause. A duo, “Phaeton,” by Misses ellie Davenport and Elsa von Mander- cheild was very artistically rendered. Other features of the afternoon musical | programme were selections from Mosz- kowski and Chopin by Miss Davenport | and Miss Mandcrscheid respectively. In the evening Miss Cecilia Zinnen sang the aria from Gounod's “Faust,” accom- panied by Mr. Fred Maurer. She was fol- lowed by Miss Henriette Grothwell in the “Sapphic Ode” to her own accompani- ment.

TWASHINGTON, April 19.—A strike by the coal miners of France, planned to be general and to include all the miners in the country, is scheduled to take place about the end of the coming June unless s are agreed upon before the date atter eventuality is not expected, ac- cording to United States Consul Bruner at St. Etienne in a report to the State Department. There is a likelihood, too, that other trades will join the strike, says Consul Bruner, for iron workers, furnace men and machinists realize that the scarcity | of frel caused by a strike of the miners would also throw thei out of employ- | ment. The silk and velvet ribbon weavers are discussing the propriety of striking at the same time. During the past winter the retail price of ccal was so high that the Government < appealed to for a reduction of the on foreign coal, but this was not granted. However, says Consul Bruner, Should the domestic supply be further curtailed and prices advanced by reason of another strike, it iS not improbable that, upon the renewal of demands, the Government will take measures to facili- tate the importation of coal by a reduc- tion of duties and railway freight rates. w: duties TRCOPS OF COLOMBIA SCATTER REVOLUTIONISTS River Commerce Has Been Resumed and the Sugar and Coffee Expor- tation Revived. WASHINGTON, April 19.—The Colom- bian Minister, Dr. Martinez Sflvela, has received a cable dispatch from Bogota saying that the Government authorities have the situation completely in hand, peace and quiet being restored at all im- portant points and the revolutionists be- ing scattered to the wild interior regions. It adds that the extensive river commerce has been resumed and that the exports of coffee and sugar are being revived in a most_satisfactory manner. United States Minister Hart at Bogota has transmitted to the State Department a translation of a decree of the Colombian executive exempting the following arti- cles from import duties “during the con- tinuance of the present disturbed condi- tion of the public order and during sixty days more”: Sweet potatoes, potatoes, onions, garlic, rice, corn, peas, lentils, beans, sugar, wheat, flour, lard, butter and all kinds of vegetables, and ns and gardent stuffs imported in their na- tural state and without any preparation whatever.

ABUSE WEAKENS THEIR APPEALS Secretary Henry White| Tells of Maybrick Case. WASHINGTON, April 19.—Henry White, secretary of the United States Embassy ! at London, was introduced to the Presi-| dent to-day before the Cabinet meeting | by Secretary Hay. White is here on his annual visit to this country and will re- turn to England next month. He has taken a great interest in the case of Mrs. | Maybrick. , ““The worst thing that could happen for Mrs. Maybrick,” said he, “is for some one | to resume the agitation of her case in this | country. Her eventual freedom has been | delayed by the agitation over her. The revival of the talk has led to abusive let- ters being sent to the English authorities | by people in this country. Even Queen Victoria was the recinient of several let- ters from enthusiasts in Mrs. Maybrick's cause. 1 have been working on the case ever since Mrs. Maybrick was sent to prison and at every opportunity to do something for the unfortunate woman, I | haye exerted myself with every Home | Secretary in the British Cabinet. “T have no means of knowing what King Edward will do, but I do not believe he will interfere in the case The late Queen made a strict rule to have nothing to do with capital cases. Mrs. Maybrick is in the Aylesbury prison and is kindly treat- ed. I hear indirectly from her twice a week. Her health is not seriously affected, although she has not been in the best of health. She is fairly cheerful and has a good prison record.” PROMINENT MEN MEET AT GRAVE OF McCLURG CHICAGO, April 18—The funeral of General Alexander C. McClurg, the pioneer publisher of Chicago, took place to-day from St. James Episcopal Church, the Rev. J. S. Stone officiating. The services were of the simplest char- acter and were attended by members of the family and friends of the deceased. Among the latter were numerous members of the Loyal Legion and the following | committee from the Chicago Historical | Societv. to which General McClurg be- i longed for fifteen years: John J. Jewett, Thomas Dent, Franklin H. Head, Frank- lin McVeag, Charles F. Gunther, Eugene . Fishburn, S. H. Kerfott Jr., Robert | T. Lincoln, A. C. Bartlett, A. H. Burley and T. M. Garrett.

Establishment of a Bureau to Prevent Delay in Service. CHICAGO, April 19.—A bureau having for its object an Increased service from freight cars, and in which all the rail- froads of the United States are expected to interest themselves, is an experiment which will soon be tried at the instance of financial powers who have recently en- gineered gigantic changes in the railway systems of the country. J. W. Midgley, formerly chairman of the Western Freight Assoclation, will have charge of the bu- reau, with headquarters at Kansas City. Railroad magnates, having arrived at | the eonclusion that it takes three times |as many cars > move a given quantity of freight as it did in former times, have turned the problem of correction over to Midgley. Should his experiments prove satisfactory the bureau will be made per- | manent. Detention of cars at freight ter- minals is the greatest evil Midgley will| attempt to correct. It is said that chiefly from this cause the car famine of the last year resulted. Railway officials declare that the aver- age daily service of a freight car has fallen to below twenty-five miles per day, where formerly the average was ninety- five miles. The new bureau is to be in the nature of a car tracing organization which will see to it that a car, having arrived at a terminal station, is quickly unloaded and returned by the shortest route to the road to which it belongs. PASSENGERS INJURED AND ENGINES WRECKED Disaster at 2 Curve on a Colorado Railroad Results in Serious Damage.

A man’s success during the day In his professional work, his office work, in the warehouse or in the factory, depends largely on his breakfast. If he leaves the breakfast table half satisfied or half hun- gry, his brain is worried and his digestive organs are in a condition of disorder for the whole day. A breakfast poorly begun means that the work of the day drags and does not receive that energy and attention that insure success. ‘When a man commences breakfast with Malt Breakfast Food he finishes the meal with a zest and relish that guarantee a store of energy for the hours of work. Malt Breakfast Food, that scientific combination of pure, fresh Malt and choicest Wheat, aids digestion in a way that no other grain food can do. Being predigested, it does not tax and hamper the stomach like irritating oat-meal and other foods. Try Malt Breakfast Food in your home for a week and mark the geod effects as far as your husband is con- cerned. At all Grocers.
