"It impaired my digestion, gave ms a distressing sense of fullness in the region of the stomach, causing a most painful and disquieting palpitation ol the heart, and what is worse, it mud dled my mental faculties so as to seri ously injure my business efficiency. "I finally concluded that something j ■would have to be done. 1 quit the use of coffee, short off, and began to drink ' Postum. The cook didn't make it right at first.

Now we have no coffee on our table. “My digestion has been restored, and with this improvement has come relief from the oppressive sense of fullness and palpitation of the heart that used to bother me so.

SENATOR BURTON SPEAKS Jhio Statesman Delivered a Striking Address to the Southern Peace Congress. Atlanta. —Universal peace among the nations of the world is only a ques tion of time. War is a relic of barbarism: it is no longer essential either to repel in vasion, to achieve liberty or to fur ther conquests. In the light of a greater and nobler civilization arbitration is the only ac ceptable method for settling disputes that inav arise in future between the nations of the world. Such, in brief, was tile substance ol u striking address delivered in this city by Senator Theodore Burton of Ohio, chairman of the American Peace Society, and one of the most ardent supporter.-- ot the world-wide move ment to secure the abolition of war THEODORE E. BURTON. United States Senator from Ohio. and the substitution of arbitration in the settlement of all differences that may arise in future between the pow ers of tlie earth. It was a most unique and signifi cant occasion when over 4,000 citi zens of Atlanta arose with one ac tord, following the speech of Senator Bnrton, and unanimously adopted .i resolution endorsing the stand which President Taft has taken In the in terest of arbitration, and thus put the cily on tccoid as favoring universal peace as opposed to conflict and blood shed. The peace jubilee was held under tlie auspices of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce and the Georgia Peace Society, it was held primarily to en dorse the stand taken by President Taft in promulgating a treaty of peace between the United States, England and France, and to lend the influence and moral support of this city to the general movement which has lor its object me attainment of universal peace. CONEY ISLAND FIRE SWEPT Dreamland, New York’s Largest Amusement Park, Destroyed. New York.—-Coney Island, the play ground of New York, suffered the w- rst fire disaster of its history. Dreamland, the largest of the amuse ment parks, was wiped out. and about four blocks adjoining covered with booths, restaurants, hotels, moving pic ti re theaters and resorts of varied types were destroyed. The loss will amount to between $2,- 000,000 and $3,000,000. In all, about 200 buildings were burned ciown and perhaps 2,000 per sons—concessionaires and employees —were turned into the streets home less and penniless. No lives were lost.

Vera Cruz.—General Diaz himself took command of the Federal soldiers who repulsed a large force of rebels, wliUe the former president of Mex ico was on his way from Mexico Cty to Vera Cruz. General Diaz ordered Uis special car to proceeded nearer to the scene of the engagement, and as it drew up he alighted, and with pistol in hand ran forward to aid his defenders. The Federal's quick ac tion with the rapid-filers, however, had taken the rebels by surprise and they soon were in full retreat. Plot to Overthrow Madero. Eta Faso, Texas. —What is looked on by Francisco 1 Madero as a well laid plan to prevent his reaching Mex ico City, to overthrow his leadership and to start a counter revolution against him, was revealed in the ar •est of Daniel De Villieres of Mexico Cty. The alleged plot involves cer tain sums of money which were to have been paid out to Madero’s mili- U-y leaders.

NO PARDON FOR BANKERS IN CAU-3TIC OPINION PRESIDENT SAYS MORSE AND WALSH DESERVE SENTENCES. President Says Rich Men Must Learn That They Cannot Violate the Law and Escape. Washington.—President Taft denied the applications lor the pardon of Charles W. Morse of New York and John K. Walsh of Chicago, the two most prominent bankers ever convict ed and sent to Federal penitentiaries under the national banking laws. Not only did the president refuse to pardon either Morse or Walsh, but he also declined, at this time, to exercise any other sort of executive clemency in these cases or to shorten the sen tences imposed upon the two men. In denying the pardons, the presi dent took a firm stand that the na tional hanking laws or any other laws must be upheld when they affect the rich man, even more than when they affect the poor. The record in the Walsh case, the president said in a long opinion, "shows moral turpitude of that insidious and dangerous kind, to punish which the national banking laws were especially enacted.” In considering the case of Morse, the president said that "from a con sideration of the facts in each case, i have no doubt that Morse should nave received a' heavier sentence than Walsh. Indeed, the methods taken by Morse tend to show that more keenly than Walsh did he realize tlie evil of what he was doing.” In his opinion in the \valsh case, the president protested against the failure to discriminate between legiti mate business and improper gain. “The truth is,” said bo, "that in the mad rush for wealth in the last few decades, the lines between profit from legitimate business and improp er gain from undue use of trust con trol over other people’s property ami money has some times been dimmed, and the interest of society requires that whenever opportunity offers, those charged with the enforcement of the law should emphasize the dis tinction between the honest business and dishonest breaches of trust." The president's denial of the par don applications of Morse and Wals.n does not mean that they must stay in prison -until the end of their terms. Walsh began a sentence of five years in the Leavenworth penitentiary in January, 1910, and under the Federal parole law, is eligible for parole next September, Cotton Acreage Shows Increase. Memphis, Tenn.—The first of the sea .-on's cotton crop reports from cor respondents of the Commercial-Appeal of date c£ May 23 and 24, indicate that there is an increase in the area plant ed to cotton in 1911 over that planted in 1910, o£ approximately 4.6 per cent., wnmh is in round figures 35,000,uw acres in all. Over 89 per cent, of this area the cotton has come up to a stand. Planting is practically complex phteci, save in western Oklahoma, where, if rains fall soonfi oats land will be put in cotton. Sea Isiand planters Form Union. Charleston, S. C. —The South Caro lina planters of sea island cotton gathered here to take action to se cure a steady and reasonable market for the staple. It was decided to commence the campaign for a better marketing condition by combining with the National Farmers' Union and attempting to have that body co-oper ate with the planters in marketing their crop at a profit. President C. S. Barrett o£ nion City, Ga., who was present, assured the planters of the co-operation of the national body. Heyburn Fears Direct Election. Washington.—Senator Borah of Ida ho, author of the resolution providing for the direct election of senators, which is now the unfinished business of the senate, announced tnat ne would press the consideration of the resolution without interruption to its conclusion. Senator Heyburn of Ida ho predicted dire consequences which might befall the country if the direct election amendment to the constitu tion were made in the form and man ner provided for in the Borah resolu tion. FOUND! BROWNSEES COTTON FAMINE Brown Predicts Net Only Famine in Raw Cotton, But Also in Finish ed Cotton Goods. New Orleans. —VY. P. Brown, the well-known bull leader in cotton, one of the first to predict 16 cents for the summer months of this season, is once more a daily visitor on the cotton ex change, and the gossip of the floor is that he has an active interest in the market. He seems to have almost completely recovered from his recent Illness which was the cause of his return to his home here from New York where, during the winter, he was engaged in large operations in the cotton market there. From his utterances since he left his sick bed, Mr. Brown has not at all changed his attitude toward cot ton. He is as bullish as ever. He said: "Back in harness again and well once more, I cannot see anything ahead to make me feel bearish on the old crop of cotton. There is nothing but famine ahead, and not only fam ine in raw cotton, but also in finished cotton goods TRUST SECRETS REVEALED John W. Gates Tells How Steel Trust Was Formed. Washington.—John W. Gates gave to the house "steel trust” investigat :n« committees the history of the Unit td States Steel Corporation. Present at the birth of the greatest steel manufacturing concern in the wot id, he described how it was the natural outcome ot what he described as the refusal of Andrew Carnegie to be bound by the "gentleman's agree ments” that marked the early days of open competition in the steel busi ness. He told also of millions lost anti treated almost in a breath, how the Carnegie mills appraised at $160,000,- 000 were recognized as worth $320,- 000,000 almost within the time requir ed to make the transfer to the corpo ration; the grim clash in the forma tive days when John D. Rockefeller was dissauded from joining in the creation of the corporation, and the manner in which others were prevent ed from engaging in the steel trade. Relating hew Carnegie had been forced to abandon plans for extending his steel business, Mr. Gates frankly admitted that the gigantic industrial combination was formed to throttle competition, and he surprised the coni mittee with the further information that when John D. Rockefeller had sought to enter the steel business a deal had been put through by which the Standard Oil magnate was forced to sell out for 40 cents on the dollar. Mr. Gates also told the committee of the taking over of the Tennessee Goal and Iron company by the Unit ed States Steel corporation, during the panic of 1907, a deal in which he was interested a stockholder of the Tea nescee company. This, he declared was a forced transaction carried out by Mr. Morgan and other financial leaders to save from ruin the Trust Company of America, threatened in tlie financial upheaval because it had 'oan-eo too much money on stock ol the Tennessee Coal and Iron com pany. Festal Deficit Has Vanished. Washington.—For the first time in the history’ of the service, it is said the deficit in the potsoffice department h;s been entirely wiped out and $7. 000,000 surplus for the current fiscai year ending June 30 next in the treas uty to the department's credit. Post master General Hitchcock signed a warrant returning to tne secretary ol the treasury $3,000,00u, the fund tc assist in defraying expenses of the pc sta: service. Reforms in the finan ciai system have made the refund pos sible. Revolution Cost $20,000,000. New Orleans. —The Revolution ic Mexico will hit the till of that coun try to the tune of more than $20,000, 000 tAmerican), according to Policar po Bonilo, former president of Hon duras, who arrived here from Mexico City. "It. looks as though peace will come to Mexico,’ said he, "but 1 doubt that it will be permanent. I fear the hasty exit of Diaz from the presidency will give rise to many rival ambitions when the Mexicans find themselves re lieved of the restraint to w’hich they were subjected by Diaz.

This year Young Men's Christian as sociations are likely, it is said, to break all records in amount of money raised for new buildings. The success at Philadelphia, when $1,030,000 was secured in twelve days, has given stimulus both to Young Men's and Young Women’s associations. Added to It was the $2,000,000 campaign for buildings in foreign capitals. Brook lyn women, with the aid of a few men, have Just secured $415,000; Atlanta men, $000,000; Reading, $217,000; Elyria. Ohio, $127,000, where the com mittee asked for but $100,000; Charles ton, S. C., $150,000; Raleigh, N. C., $75,000; Walla Walla, Wash., $48,000, anti Ishpeming, Mich., $22,500. Asso ciation leaders say three things help them ia getting these large sums: Christian unity, a short and public ap peal, alni real results accomplished in buildings already erected. Head on Crooked. Little Paul had always been taught by bis mother that God had made him and that he ought to be thankful that he had been made so perfect; eyes, ears, feet, hands and all complete. His mother had bought a new cook stove and Paulie was examining it. He lifted the reservoir lid and looked in. There was his picture, as natural as life, in the water, but he was sore ly troubled, while looking at It. When asked, by his mother, what the trouble was. he said: "Dod might o' made me persect, but he put my head on trooked.” TO DRIVE Ot T MALARIA AM) 111 ILD l I* THE SYSTEM Tako the Old Standard OROVK’S TASTBI.KfeS CHILL TONIC, Yon know what yon are taking.

Chills and Fever cause a great deal of distress and suffering. Miss Edna Rutherford, of Douglassville, Tex., says: “Some years ago, I was caught in the rain, and was taken with dumb chills and fever. I suffered more than I can tell. I tried all the medicines that I thought would do me any good, and had four different doctors, but they did not help me. At last, I tried Thedford’s Black-Draught, and 1 improved wonder fully. Now, I feel better than I have in many months. It is a wonderful medicine.” Thedford’s Black-Draught has been uniformly successful, during more titan 70 years, when used to relieve chills and fever, in any form. Fever is nearly always caused by some form of poisons in your blood. Thedford’s Black-Draught strikes at the root of the trouble by cleansing and purifying the blood, and restoring the system to its normal condition and efficiency.
