C-, says: "This winter while on a visit further down south, where ever body seems to be a slayo to cuffco, I one day found my hostess prone on her couch. 'Bo giddy, and, oh, how my head aches:1 'Coffee,' 1 said, wuinlngly. She supposed so, and what clso could she drink? 'Why, Postum,' I replied. 'IJut that'll so Insipid and John does not like it. Ho calls It dishwater.' 1 thought of the kind of Postum the darkey cook had served, and asked her If I might make a cup. Bo Into tho kitchen I went and made Postum as we have It at homo rich, clear and fragrant, after a good, long boiling to bring out the flavor. "1 brought It to her In one ot the daintiest cups, and sho drank under protest, de claring It might make her head worse. Ehe exclaimed, 'Why, how nice this is. You don't mean this Is Postum?' 1 told her the difference was only In the making. She had had it before boiled only a few minutes, and now she hud It made accord ing to directions that are plain enough on each package. "In about an hour's time she sat up, and, laughing a little, saldj her head felt nearly well and the giddiness was almost gone. "Tho next morning we had Postum (made right) for Lreakfuat. We told John It was a new coffee we wanted him to try. Hi called for a second cup, and the next morning called for some more of that new cuffed. "Quite a while after we had been serving it regularly John spoke of feeling so much better. He had gotten over his nervous iivi), and only Hun did we dare tell him ho had btei) steadily using the once de spised Postum. "Before 1 left off coffee my complexion was bad and sometimes my temper worse. The complexion has cleared up in most remarkable way. I had better refer to the other members of the family fur a testi monial as to a chango In temper, least wise we all abandoned coffee about two years .ago, for It affected us more like liquor, and every member of uiy r uiilly allowed the effect of It in nervous, trembling sensations, occasional dizzy spells and moie er less liver complaint. All of these symp toms have disappeared since we made the change to Postum." Name given by Po lura Co., Hauls Creek, Mich, . Tfev a reaaoiu clals to act us truant officers outside of cities. 8.

(From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, April 2.-(Speclal.)-M'hlle the little town of Cape May, N. J., Is rent with surprise, indignation and hard feelings over the publication In The Hee several days ago of a letter received by Governor Mickey to which was signed the names of two Cape May girls, who were looking for western husbands, disappointment and gloom will overspread the bachelor world of Nebraska over the publication of this story in The Hee. These two girls are not looking for Ne braska husbands. Each has arisen on her dignity to make this announcement to the west. Whether they thought the fact thnt the letter had been referred to Sen ators Saunders and Dlmery, the only two bachelors in the senate, would bar nil other westerners from entering the arem for their hands and fortunes, and thus caused the issuance of their indignant denials, of course It Is Impossible to tell at this time, though Goevrnor Mickey may be able to throw some light on the matter when he returns Monday. It Is understood the governor Is In receipt of a letter of withdrawal from the young women and It may be the letter will tell more than the young women have given to the press of the east. What will be the result of this refusal on the part of the girls to accept Ne braskans for husbands It Is difficult to figure out at this time. While It may not be known to the young women' of New Jersey, the young men of the. west do things In a hurry and It is not Improbable that half a hundred Nebraslians are right now en route to Cape May armed with their bows and arrows and bowle knives, each expecting a wife. In a statement given out by the young woman, published In the Chlqago Ameri can this morning, It Is said the young men of Cape May are very Indignant that It should be published that they were "slow," and the girls each deny writing the letter asking for husbands. Inci dentally each girl believes the other wroto the letter for spite. From the American's story it appears the two girls, Lydla Schelenger and Alice Rennett, were ( chums, until one of them began to "cut In" on the other's fellow, and this led them to passing each other on tho street like a pay car passes a tramp. Recently, according to the state ment of Miss Schelenger, she and Miss Bennett were about to "make up," but the publication of the letter has made a chasm between them that time Itself Is not long enough to bridge. The following statements from the girls are taken from the American: Miss Schelenger said: "I nm willing to take an oath that I knew absolutely noth ing about the letter until told about It. It looks to me as though Miss Bennett wrote It for spite. I did Intend to make up with Miss Bennett, but after this I shnll never spenk to her again." Miss Bennett, who was greatly excited over a receipt of a copy of the letter, said: "I ran state as positively as did Miss Schelenger thnt I did not write the letter and that I know no more about It than she does. I never Injured her In any way. I thought possibly Miss Schelenger wrote It. Then there will be trouble In store for somo one. I do not have to wrlto west for a husband." A number of citizens from ths west part of the state who are acquainted with the ways of the cowboys fear for the safety of Capo May should a doze i or more disap pointed cow punchers reach that place pt the same time. They say the cowboy la awfully "set" In his way, and they may call In the good people of Cape May to make good, even If the letter received by the governor was not written by the women whose names were attached to It. "That town will look like 'And her Name was Maud,' going through a court house," said Representative Currle, "If those glrla give the marble heart to these Nebraska boys, who, I understand, have already left for New Jersey. If the girls are Incor porated under the laws of New Jersey, though, ot course they will come out all right." 1,1 IK II ART ASSAIXTS ST. CYR Saloonkeeper Reals Crippled Indian Who Testified Against lllm, TTOMER. Neb., April 2. (Special.) Last Wednesday Hyacinth St. Cyr, an Indian, when entering Homer, was called across the street by Ed Lulkhart, convicted saloonkeeper, and knocked down by him without warning. While pounding him Ed Luikhart, with a string of curses said: "That will teach you to go down to Omaha and testify against me. I'll get even with the others aa well." The Indian Is a crip ple with a wooden leg, and he went home with a bleeding, swollen and blue face. After three days In bed he went to Dakota City to swear out a warrant for the arrest of F.d Luikhart. Hyacinth 8t. Cyr is an Intelligent Indian who never drinks whisky, and is helping to bring the neces sary reforink amongst his tribe. His tes timony against Ed Luikhart In Omaha was very strong and positive.

When the Jail tan reached Irwin protested vehemently ngainst being locked up. say ing that he desired to give bond and re turn to his family and protesting that he onlv did what he considered necessary to protect himself. I1RYA OVTMXF.S II t TLA Renins Movement Toward fiettlnst Aggressive Democrats Together. LINCOLN. Neb., April 2. "It is a get ting together of the aggressive elements of the party In active preliminary work for the great battle of irts," is the way W. J. Bryan explained his recent activity In connection with the re-organlzatlon of the democratic party. Mr. Bryan returned today from Des Moines, and It was with particular reference to the meeting held there hist nlRht. at which he made the principal address, that he spoke. Mr. Bryan explained that the Des Moines meet ing, like the one held nt Topeka, Jas., late in February, was to further a move ment for the organization of democratic clubs, and thereby place the machinery of the party in the hands of those who mean it well. In Iowa, he sold, the same plan had been adopted as In Kansas, with both of which he was In hearty sympathy. "Re-organization," continued Mr. Bryan, "is hardly the proper way to express It, because the party does not need reorga nization. There Is no factional dlvlsi in calling for separate efforts, but the move ment Is to get bark to the people, to put the radical and progressive element In more complete control, that there may be united, harmonious effort for the campaign of 19tj8. The purpose Is to begin at the bottom, letting the rank and file have n voice in the national convention by wtlt--Ing a platform at home for the national convention to ratify." Sir. Bryan said he was not trying to head a faction or change the organization further than that he wanted the progres sive men of the party to ta'ke the lead. The conservatives, he said, had dominated the last national convention and the party had met Its defeat. He believed the rank and file of the voters was for progress, and radicalism If need be. Mr. Bryan con tinued: The work should beghi at the primaries and every democrat should vote. It re mains with the rank and tile of the demo cratic party to say what the party's course shall be. No one will for a moment doubt the course which will be adopted bv the rank and file if they avail themselves of the duty to register their preference at the primaries. But a systematic effort will be necessary in order that democrats will be Impressed with the Importance of participation in their party's councils. The enemies of good government, the bene ficiaries of class legislation, act as one man with unlimited means at their dis posal. The people have onlvi their votes, and they must cast them together or suffer defeat. Democrats who believe their partv should be a party of the people have It In their power through systematic organ ization to so shape their partv's policies and govern Its environment for the lrtuS cnmpalKii that It will command the sup port of all men who have grown weary of the exactions made by special Interests. Mr. Bryan, In conclusion, quoted his an nouncement of several weeks ago for the organization of the party, saying the plnn does not rest upon the paramount Impor tance of any one Issue, but it recognizes the right of the democratic voters to con trol the policy of the party and to deter mine Is position upon public questions. Mr. Bryan presided tonight at the meet ing in St. Paul's Methodist Episcopal church and introduced Balllngton Booth, who made nn address In behalf of the Volunteers of America. AT THE PLAY HOUSES.

American consul in Puerto Plata Raymond Hitchcock Raymond Hitchcock came back to town last night, and maybe we weren't glad to see him. Almost as many people as the Boyd theater would hold turned out to give him Joyous welcome, nnd they cer talnly did extend the glnd hand across the footlights, nnd Hitchcock passed It right bark, and the evening was one of enjoy ment such ns we used to have "In the days of old the rare old, fair old golden days. when King Dodo wss young and charming Hitchcock wears rational clothes In this piece and has a rational part, nnd plays It with such naturalness that one who did not know him as a model of abstemious ness nnd circumspect behavior would have hard work In believing thnt the charncter of the bootfc-flghtlng Yankee consul, Abljah Booze, Is wholly nssumed. But the ex cellent reputntlon Mr. Hitchcock bears among his fellow men exonerates him from any such suspicion, and thus heightens the admiration for his excellent counter felting of a gentleman gone to seed tinder the Influence of the liquor that glveth back Its color In the glass. It s hardly worth while to talk of his methods; he Is too well known, nnd the unction of his humor has touched so many hearts and so often that to describe It would be merely to re peat. The authors have provided In "The Yankee Consul" what Is known n.s a "fat" part for him, which means that he Is on the stage a great deal of the time and hns all the chnnce to make fun that one could reasonably expect. And he Is equal to the emergency. His drollery and his dryness are his essential features, and he uses them with the utmost effect.- He sings a good song In the second act, and leads a chorus In each of the two nets, all three efforts making a hit. That air you hear them whistling today Is not the "Alamo" song at all. but the air of "In the Days of Old, which Hitchcock and the com pany sing, and which made the most snon taneous hit of anything that has been hiard here since "The Tale of the Bumble Bee. Ion can afford to miss almost any thing In order to go to hear this. But the company contains others, and they are all good. The fun keeps going from the first to the last, the music is bright and has some very melodious strains In It, the chorus is numerous, pretty nnd well trained, the movements are graceful nna pleasing, the scenery Is most appro priate, nnd tho whole affair is put together under the direction of George Marlon, which means ft great deal In these dnys. The engagement closes with this evening's performance. VnndevUlc nt Ihe Orphenni. Anyone who was once a boy, that lived in a small place, and who hasn't forgotten how he Speculated on the next, fourth and last show of the season; how he drank in visually nil that was of the repertoire company when It unloaded nt the station, nnd how on favored occasions he stood amid the scenery nnd dressing rooms of the "opera house" and noted the litho graphed and Inked souvenirs of the Thes pians who had gone before, will be a whole lot happier If he goes to the Orpheum this week and sees Will M. Cressy and Blanche Dayne present "Town Hail To night." It Is not by any means necessary to have the qualifications enumerated, however, to enjoy the sketch. Mr. Cressy and Miss Dayne are old and appreciated friends of Oniah theatergoers and their reception yesterday afternoon testified to tne ract. The little play they give can be described by no other word than de Ilclous in its humor. The sweet, womanly charm of Miss Dayne nnd the genuine but bluff and halting goodness of heart of the character Mr. Cressy portrays lend the pa thetic bits a peculiar nnd appealing merit. "What I nm not, ain't," says Hip Flit ters, manager, orchestra, treasurer, prop erty man, etc., of the town hall, the stage of which Is rhown. "I'll bet she's 11 rotten ai?tor," comments Hip when Miss Genevive Montmorency, leading lady of the Elite Repertoire company appears in advance of her show, and, despite the local mana ger's ability to do everything, she dresses him down with sharp satire. A little later, though, when the leading lady declares she wants to take care of her estranged hus band, who has been hurt, Hip comments, "Gee, I'll bet she can act." Through the whole of It are touches almost too subtile to be caught by many In an uudlenee, yet withal It Is so mealy as to keep the house in continual laughter. Charles H. Burke and Grace LaRuo, as sisted by two small colored youths, one of whom has a decided talent for comedy, have nn act In which their Is somo music and clever dancing. Mr. Burke Is funny and Miss La Hue Is attractive, riwitt'a mysterious face Is a clever conceit and well executed. Tho Frenchman gets all ends of human expressions from a huge head, tnodehd In imitation of his own, and operated by mechanism. At times the re sults are astonishing. May Vokes and Nell McCay give what they are pleased to call a comedietta, in which Miss Vokes en deavors to look as ugly as possibly and as much like a feeble-minded child. Mr. McCny has a good voice, but tries to use It In a way that he has no right to. Klein, Ott brothers and Nicholson give u good musical turn with a variety of Instruments. It Is marred, however, by unnecessary Jingoism nt the end. William Tumklns does monologue well and sings topical songs excellently, but wearies with his punning. The kinndrome pictures bring scenes of the Roosevelt Inaugural to Omaha nnd are exceptionally Interesting. They were applauded perhaps more for the presi dent than the pictures themselves. Another set Is striking In contrasting how the courts treat tho person who steals from necessity and the "kleptomaniac." 'Dendwnod Dick" at Hie Krnz, Thut wasn't a real battle you heard at the Krug theater yesterday. It wus only Richard Fairfax, known also as Dendwood Dick, exterminating a band of Sioux In dians who had the temerity to assail the cabin in which the Fairfax family maiii its home. Incidentally, Deadwood Dick takes an oath to clear his mother's name and then even up with one Nelson, who has aid him dirt. It takes four more acts to unwind the story, but never mind; Nelson gets his, all right, all right, and then some. All the old-timers of the Black Hills, ami Omaha Is pretty well filled up with them, know that whenever Deadwood Dick swore an oath to clear his mother's name, he done it. Sure. And as to getting even with Nelson, why that was easy. Suppose he did control a hand of outlaws and have other advantages? Those were Just play for Deadwood Dick and Ills faithful pard, Cob. There's enough shouting and fluur- MOTHERHOOD Actual Sterility In Women Is Very Rare Healthy Mothers and Children Make Happy Homes. . Many women lotifr for a child to bless their homes, but because of some de bility or displacement of the female organs they are barren. Preparation for healthy maternity is accomplished by Lydia E. I'inkhatn's Vegetable Compound more successfully than by any other medicine, because it (rives tone and strength to the entire female organism, curing' all displace ments, ulceration and inflammation. A woman who is in good physical condition transmits to her children the blessings of a good constitution. Is not that an incentive to prepare for a healthy maternity ? If expectant mothers would fortify themselves with Lydia E. Pinltharu's Vegetable Compound, which for thirty years hns sustained thousnnds of women in this condition, there would be a great decrease in miscarriages, in Buffering, and in disappointment at birth. The following letters to Mrs. Pink ham demonstrate the power of Lydia E. Pinkhain's Vegetable Compound in uch cases. Mrs. L. C. Glover, Vice-President of Milwaukee Business Woman's Associa-, tion, of 614 Grove Street, Milwaukee, Wis., writes: Dear Mrs, Pinkham: " I u married for several years and no children blessed our borne. The doctor sold I bad a complication of female troubles and I could not nave any children unless I could be cured. For months I took his medicines, trying in vain for a cure, but at last my hus band became disgusted and suggested that I Many Women Have Been Benefited by try Lydia R. Pinkham'i Vegetable Cemv pound; this I did, and I Improved steadily in bnnlth, and in less than two years a beautiful child came to bless our home. Now we have something to live for, anil all the credit is due to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound. ' Mrs Mae P. Wharry, Secretary of the North Shore Oratorical Society, The Norman, Milwaukee, Wis., writes. Dear Mrs. Pinkham: " I was married for five years and gava hirth to two premature children. Lydia E. Pinkbam's Vegetable Compound was recom mended to me, and I am so glad I took It, for It changed nie from a weak, nervous woman to a strong, happy and healthy one within seven months. U ithin two years a lovely little girl was born, which is tho pride and lor of our household. Every day 1 olesa Lvdia E. Pinkhain's Vegetable Comiiound for the light, health.and happiness it brought to our borne." If any woman thinks she is sterile, or has doubts about her ability to carry a child to a mature birth let her write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., whose advice is free to all expectant or would-be mothers, hhe has helpea thousands of women through this anx ious period. Women suffering with irregular or painful menstruation, leucorrhcea, dis placement, ulceration or inflammation of the womb, that bearing down feel tag or ovarian trouble, backache, bloat ing or nervous prostration, should re member that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound holds the record for the greatest number of actual cures of woman's ills, and accept no substitute. nre. pinxnam's Advice ana ineaicine. ishing of guns in the play, together with the talk that usually runs three words to a paragraph, to fill a library of that sort of literature.

The mystery connected with the shooting at the north end of the Tenth street via duct last Wednesday night, and which a woman named Clara Bly persists was a deliberate attempt to murder her, will now probably be solved this morning, when John Danlelson will be given a formal hearing on the charge of doing the shoot ing. It wus said that William M. O'Con ners was with the woman at the time, hut he managed to get away beforo the police reached the scene. O'Conners was arrested yesterday. It was reported that he had been seen running away from the woman's room and that he acted as If he had been wounded. It is now known that he was not wounded. It appears that the Illy woman was keep ing company with both men, and It is said Danlelson became very Jealous. If this is true it furnishes a motive for the shooting. Danlelson Insists that he never had a re volver and that he did not do the shooting at all. It was tho woman who first gave the police information about Danlelson and where he roomed. Sho also Identified him at the police station ns being tho man who thrust a big revolver In her face as she opened the door of her room and fired it at her, barely missing her head. AMUSEMENTS.
