ADDS TO THE LENGTH OF LIFE
Nothing Better Than Pedestrian Ex
ercise, Especially to Those Who
Have Passed Beyond Youth.
So mo of the most noted of the. old
tnen of New York, successful in busi
ness, the professions and public af
fairs, have formed a walking club for
the purpose of making their pursuit
sf still greater length of days and still
better health as agreeable nb It is
sensible. They intend to take long
walks together and, no doubt, to make
their pedestrian experiences tho sub
ject of entertaining dlBcusslon and a
store of memories held in common.
This 1c an csample which might well
be followed In every city of tho United
States. In tho era of motor vehicles
there is danger that walking will be
Increasingly neglected, especially by
men and women advanced in years,
Who often need It most. There Is a
constant temptation to forget that rid
ing in the open air, line as it is in
many ways, can never do for tho body
what walking does.

Increased Capacity for Mental Labor
Since Leaving Off Coffee.
Many former coffee drinkers -who
have mental work to perform, day aft

Rnd greater endurance by using Post
nm Instead of coffee. An Ills. Woman
writes:
"I had drank coffee for about twenty
years, and finally had what tho doctor
called 'coffee heart.' I was nervous
end extremely despondent; had little
mental or physical strength left, had
kidney troublo and constipation.
"The first notlceablo benefit derived
from tho chango from coffee to Postuin
was the natural action of tho kidneys
and bowels, in two weeks my heart
action was greatly improved and my
nerves steady.
"Then I became fcsa aeopondent, and
the deslro to bo nctlvo again showed
proof of renowed physical and montal
strength.
"I am steadily gaining in physical
strength and brain power. I formerly
did mental work and had to givo it up
on account of coffee, but slnco using
Postum I am doing hard mental labor
with less fatigue than over boforo."

GENERAL MEADE AT MINE RUN
Highly Promising Plan Ruined by
Blunders of Subordinates Thereby
Preventing Concentration.
In response to a query asking for an
account of tho Mine Run campaign
tho National Tribune makes tho fol
lowing reply:
Tho Mine Run campaign was one
of tho bcst-conculved movements of
the war, but utterly failed on account
of the mismanagement of the corps
commanders. November, 1803, Baw
what was virtually the end of the
Gettysburg campaign, with its se
quelae of manuvers back and forth
from Alexandria to Orange Court
House. Gen. Meade saw that ho had
Lee at a great disadvantage. Lee had
cent "Longstrcet's Corps to East Ten
nessee, nnd had left only Ewell's nnd
IJITTs CorpR. Ewell's Corps was
watching the Rapidan in the neigh
borhood of Culpeper Court House,
wlille Hill's Corps was a day's march
nway up tho river. Gen. Meade had
the Army of tho Potomac well in hand,
only 20 miles away around Culpoper
and Stevensburg. Ho conceived that
ho could throw his nrmy across the
rlvor nnd ovnrwhnlm Ewell's Corps
before Hill could go to his assistance.
It was only a short day's march to
reach Ewell, and he could havo been
thrashed In a few hours. Mcado care
fully worked out his plana, and if his
orders had been carried out a great
victory would havo resulted. The
movement was to begin at dawn of
Nov. 2G, by tho Fifth Corps, followed
by the First Corps crossing tho Rappa
hannock at Culpeper Mine Ford and
marching to Parker's Store on tho
Plank Road. The Second Corps was
to cross at Germanna Ford and march
to Robertson's Tavern, whero It waB
to be Joined by the Third nnd Sixth
Corps crossing at Jacob's Mill Ford.
Meade expected his whole army to bo
united across the Rapidan and cut tho
(lank of Lee's Intrenchments on Mine
Run, by noon of Nov. 27, and tho plan
had every prospect of success. Tho.
first blunder was in the movement of
the Third Corps, which, having a
greater distance to march, should have
started earliest, but as a matter of fact
ws much behind its time and delayed
tho whole nrmy. The next was that
tho engineers had not correctly meas
ured tho width of the Rapidan, and
tho pontoon bridges wore too short.
Tho banks of tho Rapidan were so
high and precipitous that they delayed
tho march of tho artillery and cavalry
so that the whole of Nov. 27 passed
with less than half of tho distance
having been traversed. In tho mean
while Lee's signal officers, looking
down from Clark's Mountain, had de
tected tho movement, and Hill's Corps
was summoned back in haste to meet
It. In tho meantime the corps officers
were mistaking the roads and making
other blunders which prevented tho
concentration, and when the army
was at laBt gotten together, Nov. 28,
it was found that the whole rebel
army was in front and fortified nlong
the crest of a rango of hills, which
mnde a natural fortification In them
selvos for six or eight miles. The
Confederates had their artillery so
placed as to enfilade every line of
approach. The corps commanders
each examined their fronts for possi
ble points of attack, and made strong
rpconnolssances, which cost a great
many men's lives. As all the Iraluri
had been left on tho north sldo of the
Rapidan in anticipation of a quick,
sharp movement, the army -was now
out of rations, nnd Meado saw frus
trated his hopes of ending tho Get
tysburg campaign by a decisive victor-
Ho therefore ordered tho army
to return to Us camps around Cul
peper. He wanted to move his army
to Fredericksburg, which would hnva
been an excellent mnnuver, and
placed Leo nt a disadvantage, but he
was prevented by Halleck's orders not
to make any change of base without
authority from Washington.
Lee's Slim Animal.
President Lincoln on June 14, 1SG3,
wrote Gen. Hooker:
"So far as wo can make out hero
tho enemy has Mllroy surrounded at
Winchester and Tyler at Martinsburg.
If thoy could hold out a few days
could you help them? If the head of
Leo's army 13 at Martinsburg and tho
tall of it on tho plank road betweon
Fredericksburg nnd Uhnncollorsvllle,
tho animal must be very slim some
where. Could you not break him?"
How Could He Stop Him?
An Irish recruit in tho mounted In
fantry got on a high-mettled horse and
it ran nway with him. One of his com
panions called to him to stop him.
"Arrah, now," cried ho, "how can I
stop him when I haven't got me spurs
nlong?"
A Slow Mover.
A general In the western army wha
aggravating slow at a time when
the president wanted him to "get n
iiioao on "
"Some of my generals aro brave
enough." regretfully remarked the
president, "but somehow or other
they get tangled up in a fenco corner
anil can't figure their way out."

Whllo cutting up a century-old flr

sonBatlonal expose of crooked gam
bling In their midst, and after losing
amounts aggregating to a fortuno at
roulotto, each received tho exact
amount of their losses In n sealed en
velope at a dinner given by Arthur
Wheeler, one of tho city's prominent
club men, who staged tho startling af
fair. Members of exclusive Kitten
houso square and Walnut street fam
ilies were present at tho gathering
and havo made resolves never to dally
with fickle chance again.
Tho host, who has frequontly pro
duced new and unheard of events in
tho whirl of social doings here, had
tho cotillion room of his Spruco street
residence converted Into a miniature
Monto Carlo, or Palm Beach Casino.
Every devico from bacarot, rougo ot

American gamo of craps and Klon

society plungers.
Counters were sold by a cashier and
the professional croupiers and dealers,
with their eye shades and calm man

days of Richard Canllcld's establish

Prince, Big Barbary Lion, Mourns Mate's Death
CHICAGO. Prince, tho great Bar
bary lion at the Lincoln park zoo,
is mourning tho death of Nollio, who
long was his mate. Dismally ho paces
his cage with a faraway look. Tho
gontlo strokes of tho keeper on his
nose pass unnoticed as are tho Juicy
steaks lying on tho floor of his cage.
"Ho mourns as I know ho would,"
said Cy Do Vry in a shaky voice. "But
Nollio is burled lu a high and dry
place where no ono can disturb her.
She shall havo a monument a small
one but still a monument."
Nelllo for years was the best known
animal lu tho Lincoln park zoo. She
was the mother of 12G cubs. For sev
eral years she had bean blind and
gradually getting feebler with old ago.
She was twenty-four years old. Cy
Do Vry, who has hud charge of tho
animals for twenty-flvo years, raised
Nollio from a cub.
Prince was purchased from a circus
In Wisconsin on April C, 1903, for $1,.
400, and placed in tho saino cage with
Nellie. They lived in harmony and
happiness, tho best of "pals" for ten
long years. Visitors used to smile as
they gazed into cage 4 at Nellie and
Prince Btrctched out on the floor sldo
by side, both curiously watching tho
crowds, as thoy slowly passed along.
Now Prince. Is companionless. The
world Is lost for him since Nellie's
death, and ho is cast in gloom. For
gotten are all of Nellie's bad moments
when she reared In rago over hor
cubs.
