DINED BY A KING
AMERICAN OFFICERS ENTER
TAINED BY EDWARD.
THE MEN WHO WERE THERE
Lord Charles Beresford Toasts Presi
dent Roosevelt and Says Some
Pleasant Things—The King of Eng
land Also Adds a Good Word.
LONDON—At the luncheon to the
visiting American officers at the Carl
ton club Thursday Vice Admiral Lord
Charles Beresford ead the following
message from the Prince of Wales:
"I very much regret that an en
gagement will prevent me from being
present. Please assure the American
naval officers bow sorry that I am un
able to have the pleasure of meeting
them on this occasion.”
At the central table Lord Charles
Beresford presided. On his right wa3
seated Rear Admiral Cotton ana on
his left Captain Lambton, naval aide
to King Edward. Ambassador Choate,
Senator Gorman, Senator Depew, Gen
eral Lord Grenfell, the archdeacon of
London, Dr. Sinclair and Admiral Sir
John Dalrymple sat at the same table.
The American officers present were
the same as those who attended the
state ball, and among the other guests
were Captain Charles H. Stockton, the
United States naval attache; Consul
General Evans, Admiral Sir Henry
Stephenson, Admiral Lord Charles
Scott, Rear Admiral Sir James Russell.
Sir Berkeley Milne, commodore of the
royal yachts; Lord George Hamilton.
Arthur Lee, M. P.; Perry Belmont,
George T. Wilson of New York, Hamil
ton McCormick of Chicago and Louis
Hay of Michigan. The scene was pic
turesque.
In proposing the toast of “The
King” Lord Charles Beresford said it
was particularly easy to do so owing
to recent events in which the king
had been a messenger of peace and
good will toward all nations.
The interests of the whole world
favored peace. He said the day was
coming when King Edward would be
known as “Edward the Peace Maker.”
The toast was drunk with enthusiasm
and then Lord Charles toasted Pres
ident Roosevelt and asked why the
president was liked in England. He
added:
"We like the man, we like the
strong, generous man, what I may call
the real human man. The president
will do his level best to bring the
two great English speaking nations
together in one harmonious whole,
which is the same idea King Edwarn
had on the occasion of his visit to
the president of France. If President
Roosevelt were to come I believe the
enthusiasm would be far greater than
in the case of any reception ever ac
corded any visitor from any country.”
King Edward emphasized his grati
fication by writing a message to Pres
ident Roosevelt, in which he said it
had given him the greatest pleasure
to welcome the American squadron.
King Edward’s cordiality left a great
Impression on the American officers,
who left the function confirmed in
the belief of King Edward's desire to
maintain friendly relations with the
United States.
Will Protect Indian Lands.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Commis
sioner Jones has formulated a new
set of regulations governing the alien
ation and leasing by Indians of lands
allotted them by congress. Charges
of land-grabbing have reached the In
terior department, principally from
the Creek nation. The new regula
tions will go into effect as soon as
they are approved by Secretary Hitch
cock, who is out of the city. It is said
the regulations will provide for the
certification of values by a properly
constituted board, which, as far as
possible, will be free from all im
proper influences.

and L. L. Whitman, both of Pasadena,

informed the war department that nine
regiments of militia from the middle
states and thirty companies of regular
troops will assemble at West Point,
Ken., on July 31 for maneuvers and
Instruction.
Will Extend Harvest Fare.
TOPEKA, Kan.—The railroads will
probably grant an extension of the
harvest hand rate of 1 cent a mile.
The rate expires on July 10, but State
Agent Gerow of the Free Employment
bureau said he had reason to believe
that a week’s extension would be
given. Cloud county, which was re
ported to need no men, has sent in an
application for 200, nnd other counties
are beginning to ask for help which
; were thought to be safely through.

SOUTH OMAHA.
CATTLE—There was a good run of
cattle, but still the demand was active
and the market was brisk and fully
steady. Anything desirable in the way
of beef steers sold readily at steady to
strong prices. The supply was not ex
cessive and as packers have not been
getting any too many cattle for the last
few days they took hold freely and the
prices paid were very satisfactory. The
bulk of the fair to good cattle sell from
$4.50 to $4.85. with the choicer grades
selling largely from $4.85 to $5.15. The
cow market did not show much change.
Desirable grades of cornfed stock were
in good demand, and the prices paid
were fully steady. There were not very
many cows and heifers on sale, so even
the grass stuff, yv'hich has been selling
slowly for the last few days, was eas
ier to dispose of than usual. Bulls sold
at just about steady prices, but veal
calves were dull and lower. The sup
ply has been large for the last few
days and as a result prices have been
going down hill at a rapid rate. It
now takes a good veal to bring $5.00.
There were a few bunches of stock cat
tle In the yards, but the demand wan
limited.
HOGS—Receipts of hogs were quite

EXPERIMENTS
Learn Things of Value.
Where one has never made the ex
periment of leaving off coffee and
drinking PoBtum it is still easy to
learn all about it by reading the ex
periences of others.
Drinking Postum is a pleasant
way to get back to health. A man of
I.aneaster, Pa., says: “My wife was
a victim of nervousness and weak
stomach and loss of apetite for years
and was a physical wreck; although
we resorted to numerous methods of
relief one of which was a change
from coffee to tea, it was all to no
purpose.
“We knew coffee was causing the
trouble but could not find anything to
take its place and cure the diseases
until we tried Postum Food Coffee.
In two weeks’ time after we quit cof
fee and used Postum almost all of her
troubles had disappeared as if by
magic. It was truly wonderful. Her
nervousness was all gone, stomach
trouble relieved, appetite improved
and above all a night's rest was com
plete and refreshing.
“This sounds like an exaggeration^
as it all happened so quickly, but we w
are prepared to prove it. Each day
there is improvement for the better
for the Postum is undoubtedly
strengthening her and giving her rich
red blood and renewed life and vital
ity. Every particle of this good work
is due to Postum and to drinking Pos
tum in place of coffee." Name given
by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
Ice cold Postum with a dash of
lemon is a delightful “cooler" for
warm days.
