Coffee-Drinkers Require Proof. When persons insist on taking some kind of food or drink that causes disease it i not fair to blame a doctor for not curing them. Coffee keeps thousands of people sick in spite of all the doctor can do to cure them. There is but one way to get well. That is to quit coffee absolutely; a great help will be to shift over to Postum Food Coffee. A case of this kind is {llustrated by Mrs. E. Kelly, 233 Eighth avenue, Newark, N. J., who says: “I have been ailing for about eight years with bilious trouble and indigestion. Every doctor told me to give up coffee. I laughed at the idea of coffee hurting me, until about three years ago 1 was taken very bad and had to have a doctor attend me regularly. ““The doctor refused to let me have cof- fee, but prescribed Postum Food Coffes. I soon got to making it so well thaf I could not tell the difference in taste be- tween Postum and the common coffee. “I began to improve right away and have never had a bilfjous spell since giving up coffee and taking on Postum. When I started I weighed 109 pounds; nmow I weigh 130. My friends ask what has made the change, and, of course, I tell them it was leaving off coffee and taking up Postum. “I know husband will never go back to the old-fashioned coffee again. You can use my name if you print this letter, for I am not ashamed to have the public know just what I have to say about Pos- tum end what it has done for me.” I % chard wealth of this section gives prom ise of being a record-breaker in all re- spects.

Posse Tracks the Gang by a Trail Over the Winter Snow. 'GUTHRIE, O. T., Feb. 2L.—Another des- perate fight occurred to-day between Oklahoma officers and the band of out- laws that killed Sheriffs Smith and Beck at Anadarko, a month ago. As a result of this latest fight one of the outlaws, Walter Swofford, is dead, and Deputy Sheriff John Fisher of Oklahoma fs seri- ously injured. The snow enabled the posse under Sheriff Milner of Shawnee, Okla., to trafl the outiaws to an isolated house south of Wewoka, I. T. As the posse approached, the outiaws, three in number, came from the house and opened fire on the officers. The fire was returned and for several minutes the battle waged. Deputy Sheriff Jones was shot by Swof- ford, who had opened the fight. When Jones fell the officers turned their atten- tion to Swofford, and he was shot several times, dying instantly. After the baitle had continued several minutes longer, (he other two _ outlaws surrendered—Sam Casey and Bill Watson. ‘These three men are undoubtedly the gang that killed the Anadarko officers. Several other arrests have been made of suspects, but the officérs had always held that Casey, Swofford and their gang were the parties who dld the work, Last night a_bunch of horses was stolen near Asher. Early this morning Sherift Milner, with Deputy Jones and several volunieers, started on the trail; which was easily followed through the snow. Nine thousand dollars is the reward of- fered on the heads of these men. P e b ) STUDENTS OF STANFORD SEEN IN COMIC OPERA Clever Rendition of “The Pirates of Penzance” in Assembly . : Hall. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Feb. 21— Notwithstanding the fact that rain had been pouring down in torrents 'since early morning and the streets were flooded with water, a large audfence gathered in the Assembly Hall to-night to - witness -the production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s comic opera, “The Pirates of Penzance,” which was given by local talent under the auspices of the Assoclated Students. Both the singing and-acting of the ama- teurs were excellent, particularly that of Dr. George B. Little, who played the part of ‘the pirate apprentice, and Mrs. Perry Roberts, who appeared as Mabel Stanley. | The full chorus of fifty voices showed the fine training that had been given it under the direction of Louis W. Weer, the di- rector. The music for the opera was sup- lied by the student orchestra under the resdersh(p of L. J. Wertheimer and was a pleasing feature of the evening. he cast of characters was as follows: Pirate King. ... L. Firebaugh, '04 Samuel, lieutenant. . E. Warfleid, Frederick, apprentice.

Bartlett velyn_Schreckhiss Gladys Hoitt ra Ellerbeck ® RESULTS OF FRIDAY’S RACIN LI HERE were no deciding races be- tween winks yesterday at Oak- land. The rain fell in torrents al- most from start to finish of the sport, until the thoroughly drench- ed riders looked like half-drowned wharf rats. The card had a light, fluffy look, and be- fore business opened up in the ring all the handicappers had agreed that six straight favorites would go through. The crowd around the combination book re- sembled the assemblage at a Pacific- street hand-me-down auction sale, &0 eager were purchasers to get to the win- dow. Strangely enough, the slate was broken from an unlooked for direction. Green Morris' Duckoy, a prohibitive 1 to 5 favorite for the mile selling run, with orly three contenders, finished behind Bragg and Redwald. The crack mudlark was ridden by Winnie O‘Connor and ap- parently pulled up all right after the race. It was simply one of those inexplicably bad exhibitions that the best of horses will at times make. Bragg, with Ransch in the saddle, made all the pace, beating Redwald six lengths. Walter Jennings' black filly, Nigrette, won the two-year-old dash in game fashion, after at one time looking beaten. She closed an 11 to 20 cholce, with O'Cos nor up, and at the wire downed Delsegno, a 5 to 1 shot, cleverly. Tom Mitchell fin- ished third. Johnny Paly rode a well-judged race on Bassenzo in the seven-furlong run, reach- ing the wire less than a length before Urchin. The winner closed a 2 to 1 fa- vorite, but had a stronger lad than little Redfern been on the back of Urchin, the positions might have been reversed. Kill- doe took the show. Rigged with light weights as they were, Botany was no match for Sombrero in the seven-furlong purse run. The Morris colt ruled a 3 to 5 favorite, and, catching Botany at the paddock, won from there on as he pleased. Josie G displayed some early speed, but retired from the firing line early, losing the short end of the purse to Dunblane. Lee Jackson piloted the winner. = At post time in the betting on the fifth number, a six-furlong sprint, it was 3 to 2 and take your pick between Water- scratch and Colonial Girl. O’Connor on the former, rode a . well-judged , race, gradually wearing down the lead of Bull- man on Evander, and scoring by two lengths. The latter beat the barrier. Co- lonfal Girl appears to have gone back some, for she gained little in the run home, finishing third. Q'Connor also piloted Siddons past the judges winner of the closing mile and a sixteenth run. As usual, the Wadsworth horse fell out of it at the start, then, fin- ishing with a rush, downed Sea Lion nfiugy two length. Hungarian was a close third. —_— Track Notes.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Feb. 21.—The bankers’ committee of the Everett-Moore Syndicate to-day issued the following of- fielal statement concerning the sale of the “Big Consolidated” street rallway system of this eity: “A syndicate headed by Horace N. An- dréws has contracted for the entire hold- ings of stock of the Everett-Moore syn- dicate in the Cleveland Electric Railway Company. The price at which the stock will 'be. 501 15 §80 per share. The Elkins- ‘Widener-Dolan syndicate, which was negotiating for the property, failed to ‘'make a proposition satisfactory to the committee.” Ardrews, who was formerly president of the “Big Gonsolidated,” has already a holding of stock in the company esti- mated at 20 per cent of the whole. 1In order ‘to secure full control it is said he must purchase about 45,000 shares more at a cost of nearly $4,000, Andrews and his associates also are large holders of the stock of the Cleveland City Railway Compamy, known locally as the ‘Little Consolidated,” of which Senator Hanna is president. It is understood to be the purpose of these-nterested in the two companies to effect a consolidation. Should this be cone it would place every streetcar line in the city under the control of one com- any.s p’l‘l‘i’e sale of the “Big Consolidated,” it is said, will in a great ;measure relieve the situation which forced the Everett- Moore syndicate to seek the assistance of the bankers’ committee. The sale of the stock at $80 returns to the holding members of the syndicate their equity in the “Big Consolidated.” With the col- lateral trust plan in full operation to re- lieve the telephone. lon, it is be- lieved, the syndicate will practically be in shape to go ahead and conduct the affairs of its numerous other interests. over 126 pounds he will forfeit $500.

Mrs. Catherine Ryan, who was released from the Napa Insane Asylum last De- cember, was restored to competency yes- terday by Judge Troutt, and the letters of guardianship over her person and es- tate issued to Mrs. John Pettee last July, when Mrs. Ryan, who is also known as Mrs. Hartridge, was declared insane, ‘Wwere revoked. The restoration to competency of Mrs. Ryan was opposed by Mrs. Pettee, who declared that the woman was a heavy drinker and not capable of taking care of her estate, which consists of a féw per- sonal adornments and a monthly remit- tance received from relatives in England, Mrs. Ryan wrote to Judge Troutt and informed him that she wished to be re- stored to capacity because Mrs. Pettee was interfering with her affairs and at- tempting to direct her in matters which Mrs. Ryan said she felt capable of per- forming with as good judgment as her guardian. To settle the qusetion of com- petency Judge Troutt requested the Wwoman's attorney, J. L. Copeland, to pe- titlon the court to restore his client to capacity. This was done, and with the petition cbjection to Mrs. Pettee’s account as guardian was also filed. The account of Mrs. Pettee shows that she received $50 from Mrs. Ryan’s relatives during the months of August and September of last year and 36 from the United Service Society. The account shows that she paid out $10640. Judge Troutt refused to ap~ prove the account without investigation. Mrs. Ryan has one child, a son, who 's 16 years of age. When his mother was declared insane he asked the court to appoint S. L. Morris, a friend of his mother, as guardian. Morris accordingly petitioned for letters of guardianship, but they were refused him. Judge Troutt, in deciding that Mrs. Ryan was sane, did not_take into consid- eration the testimony offered by the wit- nesses summoned by Mrs. Pettee’s or Mrs. Ryan’s attorneys. He said that in his opinion the mere fact that the doctors in charge of the hospital for the insane at Napa had discharged her as sane was enough to convince him that the woman ‘was capable of managing her own affairs. — New Orleans Racing.
