SHE QuIT. But It Was a Hard Pull. It is hard to believe that coffee will put a person in such a condition as it did Mrs. E. 8. Brown, of Apple Creek, O. She tells her own story. “I 4id not believe coffee caused my trouble, and frequently said I liked it so well T would not, nor could mot quit arinking it, even if it took -my life, but I was & miserable sufferer from heart trouble and nervous prostration for four vears. 1 was scarcely able to be around at all. Had no energy and did not care for anything. Was emaciated and had a constant pain around my heart until I thought I could not endure it. For months I never went to bed expecting to get up in the morning. I felt as though 1 was liable to die any time during the night. “Frequently I had nervous chills and least excitement would drive sleep away, and any little noise would upset me terribly. I was gradually getting worse until finally one time it came over me znd 1 asked myself what is the use ing sick all the time and buying so that I could indulge myself “So 1 thought I would see if I could quit drinking coffee and got some Postum Food Coffee to help me quit. I made it strictly according to directions and I want to tell you that change was the greatesl step in my life. It was easy to quit coffee because I had the Postum which I like better than I like the old coffee. One by one the old troubles left, 1l now I am in splendid health, nerves ady, heart all right and the pain all gone. Never have any more nervous chills, don’t take any medicine, can do all my housework and have done a great deal beside. My sister-in-law, who visited me this summer, had been an invalid for some time much as I was. I got her to-quit coffee and drink Postum.

Auditor Wells has sent a communication to the Board of Supervisors in which he directs attention to the fact that the rec. ommendation of the Finance Committee to set aside $196,900 for sweeping and sprinkling streets is too high by ,000. The Auditor suggests that the difference should be used for public improvements. The communication says: “My attention has been called to the fact that the Board of Public Works has entered into new contracts for the per- formance of the work at figures much less than the present contracts. which®*will ob- viate the necessity of so large an appro- priation for such purposes as that recom- mended by your honorable Finance Com- mitcee, to wit, $196,900.. In estimating the amount that will be necessary under the new contracts I have based it on the num- ber of working days in the year and apply- ing the amount to the area over which such work has performed, and mak- ing a liberal allowance for the remainder of the fiscal year, the amount necessary will be about $176,000.” —_———— Two Sudden Deaths.

His death 1is sincerely regretted by his em- ployers and fellow workers, who esteemed him greatly. For forty years he had worked for the corporation and a more faithful man could not be found in the works. He built all the retorts used by the gas company and his work was so valuable that he was sent all over the State to perform similar services. Deceased came to this city in 1560. He had been employed by the Manhattan Gas Company of New York and was sent here Y ———t to superintend the bulldlnfi of the retorts in the local gas works. He continued in the employ of the company and proved iryvaluable. Mr. Cunningham was taken sick three months ago. He suffered from asthma, but was able to attend to his dities untii a month ago. It is believed that the in- activity told on the aged man. He would sit on his steps at 841 Harrison street and watch the men coming from work and re- gret that he was not among them. On Wednesday last he was confined to his bed and Dr. Dillon was called in to at- tend him, but despite the physictan’s ef- forts he passed away the following night. Death is attributed to congested lungs. Mr. Cunningham was a native of Ire- land; aged 77 years, He came to America as a boy and was brought up in Montreal, Canada. He later went to New York and subsequently moved to this State. His wife djed twelve years ago, and he will be buried by her side in Holy Cross Ceme- tery.

The former residence of Captain Mahan at the southwest corner of Eddy and Broderick streets is a source of much an- noyance to the residents of the neighbor- hood. Several months ago a fire partially de- stroyed the house, and since that time | numbers of tramps have made it their headquarters. The house is close to Cal- vary Cemetery, and the tramps steal into it late at night and make the night hide- ous with their reveiries. This is not the worst, hcwever, for the men are very par- tial to milk and bread. In the early hours | of the morning they raid the neighborhood and steal all the milk and bread left on doorsteps in the locality. ‘ The residents complain that they have reported the matter to the police, but that no effort has been made to abate the nuisance. The tramps are now getting so bold that they saunter around in the morning and ask the ne!‘ghbors to give them hot coffee for breakfast. .= Trouble Over a Nugget. Hugo Landecker, a broker at 118 Mont- gomery street, was arrested vesterday by Detectives Ryan and O’'Dea and booked at the Ci;fiv Prison on a charge of petty larceny. The complaining witness is John D. , 321 Montgomery street, who al- leges that he had a gold nugget stolen from his watch chain, which he later saw in Landecker's window. He asked Lan- decker to allow it to remain in the win- dow till he could grove ownership, but when he went back Landecker said he had mislaid it. et WSS Verein Eintracht Picnic.

The matter of the return of bail money | has assumed a phase that may lead to the | courts being called upon to decide the problem as the proper method to be adopted in future. Several wealthy Chi- nese who have thousands of dollars in the hands of the City Treasurer deposited for bail money came to the Hall of Justice yesterday to make arrangements for the commencement of mandamus proceedings to compel the Treasurer to release the money in his keeping. Judge Mogan received a letter yesterday from Supervisor Brandenstein, who intro- duced the ordinance, which was passed to print, providing for the auditing of de- mands against bail money by the Auditor, stating that Reuben Lloyd, attorney for the Auditor, had advised the latter that the ordinance was invalid, which is in di- rect opposition to the gxpinlon of the City and County Attorney. The latter has just returned from a trip East, and he and Attorney Lloyd will meet in'a day or two to discuss the matter. Brandenstein thought some actlon would be taken at the meeting of the Board of Supervisors on Monday. — e McCloskey Is Sentenced. Arthur McCloskey, the young man who was arrested on }Ehe night of May 13 for snatching a satchel containin, 145 fre g 7 e e e Tl Lol was sentenced yesterday by Judge Mogan to six months in the County Jail on the charge of petty larceny and six months | for carrylng a concealed weapon. The original charge against McCloskey was grand ldarceny, but Mrs. Kennedy made such a strong plea for mercy, owing to the fact that the defendant stated he was driven to the crime by hunger, that the minor charge was substitufed. Me- Closkey’s real name is Arthur Deming, and he belongs to Leadville, Colo. 1901. BIVES UP HI3 MATE'S LIGENSE Robert Frederick Admits It Was Obtained - by Deceit. Passes a Creditable Examina- tion, Although Wholly Lacking Experience. e Robert Frederick of this city is not a | Micawber waiting for something to turn up, but he is the kind of a man who gues | and does the upturnirg himseif. | Four years ago, not being engaged in a | very lucrative or wholesome occupation, | he determined to take a long sea voyage | for the betterment of his health. He could not very well take a trip around the world | as a passenger because he did not have | the necessary money, but he hit upon a | brilliant idea. He paid the fee for a course | in navigation in a-scheol in this city and, | being an intelligent man with a good ed- | ucation, graduated as a book sailor, with- out expprience, but knowing theoretically | all about the ways of those that go down | to the sea in ships. After recslvin? his diploma he_appeared before Cantain O. F. Bowles, United States Loeal Inspector | of Steam Vessels, and took an examina- tion and came out with a very high per- centage and with flying colors. | ~But in order to receive the license sought | it was necessary that he should have bad | experience as mate on board a vessel, and | Frederick was obliged to misrepresent his case. The license was issued and for the Bast four vears he has been earning his C | living as mate and pilot on vessels around | Coos Bay. n | “Captain Bolles recenitly heard that Fred- | erick had never had any sea experience | prior to the issaance of the license and | wrote to Frederick, who replied by return- ing his license, together with the follow- ing letter: Dear Sir: Please find inclosed my mate's li- cense, ‘which I surrender for cancellation, hav- ing obtained the same four years ago by mis- representation. Not having sufficient experi- ence I was led to believe it an easy matter to supply any deficiencies in my education. I have always led an honest life, and having a family of little ones dependent on my labor for support, the fear of exposure has always | been a burden. This is the only mistake in my life, and I sincerely hope to keep my fam- ily from shame by correcting, as much as pos- sible, the wrongdping of an overambitious na- ture.’ - Yours sincerely, EOBERT FREDERICK. Mr. Frederick, having done the right thing, may now present himself for an- other examination for a mate's license, the sea experience which he has now had being genuine and not a pretended quali- fication as on. the former occasion.

Glaze for a new trial and sentenced him to life imprisonment in San Quentin Prison for the murder of his pdrtner, William Trewhella, in the W indser Hotel last January. After denying the motion for a new trial Juége Dunne ordered Glaze to stand up end asked him i1 there was any legal rea- son why sentence should not be passed upon him. “Nothing, your Honor,” answered Glaze, “except that I am sure I am not gullty of this charge against me.” “It is the sentence of this court,” sald Judge Dunne, “that you be confined in the State Prison at San Quentin for the term of vour natural life.” Glaze again took his seat beside his wife and stepchildren without giving any evi- dence of emotion. His attorneys then moved for a stay of execution for twenty days, which was granted. P; Glaze and Trewhella were partners in the Windsor Hotel. They quarreled over money matters. Glaze finally lay in wait fer his partner in the kitchen of the hotel and shot him down in cold blood. He ieaded self-defense, but the evidence ad- Buced at the trial disproved his pica and demonstrated bevond a doubt that his crime was without cause or justification. ‘Wants Engine-Houses ¢ Superintendent of Public Buildings Bar- nett directed the attention of the Board of Works yesterday to the unsanitary con- dition of the engine houses in the Fire Department.
