JIMMY MICHAEL DIES AT SEA
Famous Bicycle Rider Passes Away
While Enroote to Sew York
Congestion of Brain.
NEW YORK. Nov. 25. "Jimmy" Michael,
the noted middle distance bicycle rider,
died suddenly last Monday morning on
board the French line steamship La Savole
of congestion of the brain. Michael was
coming to the United States to race again
and was accompanied by a number of
long distance riders, who are to enter the
six-day contest here In December.
Michael complained of being 111 on Sun
day, saying to the ship's doctor that he
was suffering from a very severs headache
and nauseu. He told Dr. Mb ire that his
illness, he thought, was due to the after
effects of a severe fall he Tecelved In Berlin
two years ago.
'Since then," said Michael, "I have had
partial parulysia of the left atdo of my
face and am frequently subject to lapse
of memory. I do not feel at all myself.
Do what you can to relieve me of this
awful pain."
Dr. Marie attended the bicycle rider
faithfully during the remainder of the day
and by night had succeeded in relieving
him of the pain. Michael was able to eat
his dinner that evening, and according to
the head steward of the ship was the
happiest and brightest member of the
party. He retired early and did not com
plain of feeling 111. About 3 o'clock Mon

"What's the matter with Ohio?" yelled
someone In the crowd.
"Not a thing," answered President Roose
velt, "and I want to tell you that there
are a lot of other good ones."
Leaning over the rail, the president asked:
"What's the matter with Missouri?" Deaf
ening cheers greeted the question.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with
the people and bidding them good night,
the president retired to his stateroom amid
tremendous cheering. At this juncture
Captain Harry S. New, vice chairman of
the national republican committee, hurried
through the gates and ran toward the spe

Captain New to the president, who ap
peared on the plutform to greet the vice
chairman. Captain New accompanied the

CONDITIONS IN THE ARMY
Lieutenant Gnral Chaffee SuggMta That
States Disfranchise Deiefter.
V.03E MEN NEEDED IN ARTILLERY CO. P a
He Says That the Law Creating the
General Sa Is Prodacln Good
Resalts Ofllreti
, t'aoteea.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 25. Lieutenant
General Chaffee, chief of staff of the
United States army, in his annual report
says In his opinion little new general legis
lation Is needed at this time. He says
sufficient time has not elapsed since the
reorganization of the army to determine
wisely what legislation is necessary. He
suggests the enactment of state laws dis
franchising deserters from the army.
The general says that inquiry of men
In the guardhouses on his tour of Inspec
tion elicited no special reason for deser
tion, the general reply being that army
life was not what had been anticipated.
General Chaffee believes the adoption of
his suggestion would relieve military
prisons of two-thirds of their occupants.
Relative to the general staff corps, he
says:
Abundant proof of the wisdom of congress
In establishing the new corps and pre
scribing Its duties Is found In the record
of its first year's work, which wsrrants
the confident expectation that In due time
the highly Important object tne law
will be fully accomplished.
A number of extracts from the reports
of general officers favoring the restoration
of the canteen are given. General Chaffee
says that the number of men and officers
In the artillery corps is insufficient and
the plan of organization Is not of the best.
The pay allowed Is said to be Inadequate
to obtain the men desired for the artil
lery arm.
General Chaffee recommends the enlarge
ment of the following military reserva
tions, the sums stated being the estimated
cost of additional land:
Fort Greble, R. I., $(.0(K; Fort Baker
and Point Bonlta, Cal., $126,000; Vancouver
barracks, $30,000; Yokeka Point, Wash.,
$2,600;. Fort Bayard, N. M... $90,000.
It Is stated that it seems necessary to
secure control of the source of the water
which supplies the valley adjoining Fort
Bayard, or else abandon the pulmonary
hospital there.
Merchant Marino Hearing.
The Merchant Marine commission
resumed its session today, Senator
Galllnger, the chairman, announced
that the hearings were about con
cluded, but that the commission had
thought it proper at this time to invite
naval and poatofflce department officials to
be present today, the former to submit
their opinion of the desirability of a mer
chant marine aa auxiliary to the navy and
the latter to speak of the benefits to accrue
to the postal service as a result of an Im
proved merchant marine.
Secretary Metcalf, of the Department of
Commerce and Labor, also was Invited to
attend the hearing.
Secretary Morton's views of the rela
tions of the government to the merchant
marine in the foreign trade was that it
was eimply a question of competition. He
said that In order to build up a large
American shipping Interest In this country
it will be necessary to meet the competi
tion of other nations.
It will further be necessary, he declared,
to, In some Way, recognize the mall con
tracts, the subsidies, the bounties and the
premiums of Germany, England and other
countries. The American owner of sea
going craft and the American sailor, he
said, must be given equality in all respects,
if they are not to be handicapped by
foreign competition. It was his Idea that
all ships built in this country should be
constructed in accordance with plans
approved by the Navy department so that
In case of war the department could make
good and efficient use of them. He added
that he was not sure but that the seamen
also should have a naval training.
Eugene T. Chamberlain, commissioner of
navigation, Treasury department, sub
mltted a series of tables bearing on the
commerce of the world. From these he
showed that the exports of the United
States largely exceeded the imports and
said that the imposition of discriminating
duties would be likely to result dlsas
trouBly to the trade of this country through
retaliatory action by the countries at
fected.
Replying to Senator Galllnger, Mr. Cham
berlaln said he favored the granting of
subsidies as a means of national defense.
General Shallenbarger's testimony con
cluded the hearing. He did not believe,
he said, a mall service act alone would
benefit more than a limited portion of the
American shipping. There must be some
legislative action which would give to this
country the service of at least on Ameri
can line of steamers to each of the prin
cipal ports of the world. The commission
at the conclusion of General Shallen
barger's statement went Into executive ses-

An Old Couple's Troubles.
There Is an old couple of Hillsdale, Kan
sas, the husband 71 and the wife 67, who
made a discovery late in life that would
have saved lots of their troubles, acme
thing they learned about diet.
The old gentleman says: "One day the
doctor told me my wife's trouble waa not
heart disease, but her stomach, but she
thought he ( was mistaken. As I had read
several statements in the papers about
Postum Food Coffee, my mind waa soon
made up, and it was In the fall of 1901
that I got a package of Postum, asking
my wife to try It.
"She said she did not believe it would
help her, and so It was laid aside and
ah suffered all the winter, drinking coffee
all the time until about the first of May,
when she waa in terrible distress.
"One night about our bed-time she said
she must have the doctor, 'but before you
go fix a little Postum and I will try it.'
"So I prepared half a pint of Postum,
according to directions, and as soon aa
he had drank it she felt warm and nour.
ished all over, and in a little while her
pain waa gone It waa like magic. For a
few meals she used a little coffee and
then a wrangling began Irt her stomach
each time, so finally she gave up coffee
altogether and used Postum only. Better
and better she got and grew stronger and
finally all the old disease left.
"Since that time we have used, nothing
but Postum, nor have we had any occa
sion to rail for the doctor since, and I now
advocate Postum to everyone I meet."
Name given ly Postum Company, Battle
Creek, Mich.
So many people say, "Coffee don't hurt,"
and then tell you they "know a niun 70
years old who has drank It all his life."
That doesn't prove that you can drink It.
"One man's meat is another's poison."
If coffee ug-rees and the drinker keeps
well, stick to It, but if any kind of ails
or disease show, better heed the warning
and cult coffee.
"There's a reason."
Look in each pkg. for the famous little
book, "The Road to WeUvUle.'

further witnesses would be heard.
Schools In Philippines.
The bureau of Insular affairs. War de
partment. Is In receipt of a number of bul
letins published by the Bureau of Educa
tion, Manila, which show that the system
of public Instruction introduced Into the
Islands is eminently practical.
The purpose 0f those who are directing
the course of studies Is to exalt the dignity
of labor. Effort is made to train the eye
and the hand, a; well as the head. In the
provincial secondary schools two years'
courses In mechanical drawing, wood-working
and ironworklng are prescribed for
students fn arts snd crafts, and give the
students a fair knowledge of mechanical
drawing, blacksmlthlng and toolmaklng. A
more advanced course Includes architecture,
cabinet making, carriage building, wood
turning and pattern making. There are
also courses for machinists and steam en
gineers. Tools and equipment have been secured
for eight different schools, with wood
making marhlnery, and for three schools
In :ron working outfits. Particular atten
tion Is given to the care of Instruments and
tools.
Particular attention has been given to
normal school work In order to train up a
class of native teachers for the public
schools of the Islands, and this course has
been pursued with eagerness by hundreds
of natives, but at present there Is no
Institution In the Philippines in which In
struction Is given in English of a suffi
ciently advanced character to fit students
to enter American colleges. It Is, there
fore, proposed to offer In the normal school
preparatory courses of an advanced na
ture, adequate for the attainment of this
purpose.
Another school that will have a profound
Influence In the development of the islands
Is the nautical school. The coast line of
the Islands Is greater than that of the
United States, and as there is at present
almost a total lack of railways, and the
highways being In poor condition for the
most part, the waters of the archipelago
must continue to be used as a means of
transportation. There are at present 103
students in the school, and every member
of the last three graduating clauses arc
employed (with one exception) at salaries
ranging frcm $275 to $' per month one
being a mate cn a Japanese liner.
The course of study pursued covers a
period of four years and includes English,
mathematics, navigation, seamanship,
geography, chemistry and history. The
students are from twenty-two different
provinces, and owing to their training,
their Malay blood and acquaintance with
the water from childhood, make excellent
seamen, and are proud of their profession.
Snfferlna; In Turkey.
A story of sickness, hunger and
starvation has come to the State
department from Mr. Norton, the
American consul at Harput, in a report
upon the condition of the Zassun population
In the Mush district. The consul says of
the 10,000 survivors of the recent massacre
few have saved anything but their lives.
Nearly 1,000 houses In the region were ran
sacked and burned.
Extracts from the report were made pub
lic at the State department today In the
hope that the sad story may bring relief to
the unfortunate Sassouns. Mr. Norton said:
"Worst of all, their flocks and herds,
practically the only source of food, rai
ment and Income, were swept away. These
unfortunates, after receiving for a short
period an allowance from the government
of 1 cent per capita per dlem for subsist
ence, are now without food and without a
prospect of food for the coming winter,
The diseases usually following upon fright.
exposure, exhaustion and Insufficient food,
are rapidly becoming; epidemic, especially
among the children.
"Tho case Is one appealing most strongly
to the sympathies of the, benevolent. Un
less aid is rendered promptly few may be
left to receive It. The region is bare and
desolate. Clothing, blankets and food must
be brought from outside, before the ap
proaches to t,he mountains are blocked by
snow. The only persons within a short
distance of the Sassoun region competent
to give any measures of prompt relief are
W. J. Heathcote, esq., H. B. M.'s vice con
sul at Bltlls, and Rev. R. M. Cole of the
same city, missionary of the A. B. C. F. M.
Both are familiar with existing conditions
and with the facilities for meeting the
exigency.
"It should be maintained that several
thousand destitute villagers upon the great
plain of Mush, adjoining the Sassoun
mountains, are In equally sore straits.
Their advantage over the Sassoun folk
lies In the fact that they are less exposed
to the rlor of winter and they can at
least beg from surrounding villagers, where
the torch has not brought destitution.
German Government Wllllnsr.
Secretary Hay has received from the Ger
man government a cordial note accepting
In principle President Roosevelt's sugges
tlon for another conference at The Hague.
Aa the president's suggestion contained
no reference to the time of the second
meeting at The Hague, the German gov
ernment does not commit Itself on this
point and awaits the pleasure of the other
powers. It is probable that the replies
from all the powers will be received within
a short time. Enough already have come
to assure Secretary Hay of the cordial re
ception which the president's Invitation
has been received generally. When all
the acceptances are in It will then be de
termined what steps shall be taken toward
fixing a date for the court to meet.
May Sign British Treaty.
At the State department announcement
was made that this government hopes soon to
conclude with Great Britain an arbitration
treaty identical with those recently signed
with France, Germany and other powers.
The treaty will be signed by Secretary Hay
and Sir Mortimer Durant, the British am
bassador. Hearst Hearing Besrlns Tuesday.
The final hearing before the Interstate
Commerce commission of the complaint of
William R. Hearst against the coal-carry-I
