slight aperient, such as a small wineglass

morning before breakfast, is one of the
greatest aids to HEAL TH and therefore

. JOHN SAYS
'More of ta Xevr toffee, I'lcnse.""
A lady from Uio ".Uind of the Sky," lu
N. 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

CAI'K MAY IS IX FOR THOI IJI.K
Ifostllnnr. Husky IVebrnska Merchants
Moving: on Jersey Town.
(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."

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

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.

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

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.

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 piece will continue until
after Wednesday night, with a matinee on
Wednesday.
JEALOUSY IS THE MOTIVE
Statements that May Tlirow Some
Light on Mysterious hoot Ins
on Tenth Street.
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.
