The nation including some hund reds of thousands of conservative, stand-pat democrats is awaiting with more, than passing interest the plat formIr. Bryan threatens to demand at the democratic convention in Den ver week after next. It seems not to be a question of a nominee but one of . platform that will confound the dis tlnguished body, and during tho argu ment, the Peerless leader issues his platform ideas with all the suavity of twelve years ago. Mr. Taggart, of Indiana, leads the fight for the conser vatives and declares that rationality shall win. It is almost certain that ISryau will make one of his strongest bids among the great mass of ; voters upon the plank calling for publicity of cam palgn funds. His transparent act in putting the question up to Mr. Taft Just before the republican convention did not work well, but now he is to make a gallery play by incorporating the idea in the platform he demands. The tariff revision plank is to be an other appeal to the laboring classes It would strike at wealth, true enough but fail to reach the "malefactors,' as the term has come to be used. The question of states' rights also receives consideration, it all depend Ing upon the time-worn theory of Thomas Jefferson that the constitu tion should be read to throw the pre sumption In favor of the states. Direct vote for U. S. senators is another plank. The others run along to suit conditions, much of the substance being borrowed from President Roose- , Yelt and made over to suit. Mr. Taggart and the Johnson forces have combined to defeat the Nebraskaa candidate, believing that a man

can be selected from their party whose history t and Ideas' are more nearly in line with the office he seeks.

The democratic convention Is going to start a mile up in the air, according to the altitude figures. Where will It be when the Bryan ideas arrive? After this steel trust episode, " If Teddy Jr. would only get up and call somebody a , people would say he Is "just like his dad." At last reports, Richmond had developed 6,511 original Taft men. Some towns, however, offer their whole population. This cool weather of the past few days is just retribution for the ice trust, if all the things that have been said were true. Of course, Americans like to help out the "under dog", but they don't like to see a man get the habit, like Mr. Bryan. Just Smiles HIRSUTE TRAGEDY.

Tommy had been punished. ; ''Mamma," he sobbed, "did your mamma whip you when you were lit tle?" "Yes, when I was naughty." "And did her mamma whip her when she was little?" "Yes, Tommy." And was she whipped when she was little?" "Yes." "Well," Inquired the child, his brain cleared by the position he had just oc cupied, "who started It, anyway?" Unknown. SOME SIGNS.

GORMQN CHIEF OF SECRET SERVICE

Will Serve Uncle Sam in the New Michigan Division. HE HAS MADE A SUCCESS. FORMER RICHMOND BOY GAINED GREAT FAME WHILE WORKING ON IDAHO LAND AND COAL GRAFT CASES. Elmer A. Gormon, a former Richmond young man and now connected with the United States secret service, has just been appointed chief of tho Michigan division of the secret service. This appointment conies as a recognition of the distinguished service of Mr. Gormon the five years he has been in the great secret police service, the only rival of which in the world is the famous Russian "third division." The states of Ohio and Michigan formerly comprised one secret service division but the territory has just been divided. Mr. Gorman was formerly assistant of this division but when it was divided he was given the Michigan department, lie has just returned to Detroit after a tour . through Michigan during which trip he spent all of his time getting acquainted with the bankers, police officers, federal officers and other public men, with whom he will necessarily come in contact in his future work. Since entering the secret service Mr. Gormon, who is the son of I. A. Gormon, former chief of police of this city, has done much creditable work. He probably rendered his most efficient services while working on the land and coal graft cases in Idaho. Just a few days ago Gormon arrested a man who has been flooding De troit with counterfeit money. For this arrest he was congratulated by Chief Wllke of the secret service. FORBIDDEN TO SPEND MUCH OH FUNERAL If They Are Extravagant, They Get No Relief for Six Months. London, June 27. Lambeth, Lon don, Board of Guardians, have decided that no outdoor relief shall be given to widows during the first six months of widowhood if they have spent lav ishly on funeral and mourning any money received from a club, insurance society, or other source. STEEL MILLS RACE TO FILL MEXICAN CONTRACT New Prohibitive Ttarff Will Go Into Effect on First of Next Month. Mexico City, June 27. American manufacturers are rushing trainloads of structural and other steel products into Mexico in order to avoid the increase of duty effective, July 1. The new tariff is practically prohibitive and gives the Mexican concerns a mo nopoly over the domestic trade. NO OPPOSITION TO INJUNCTION (Continued From Page One.j tauqua of this use. as it would be impossible to erect fences across the tracks. The attitude of the Traction company in announcing its intention to refuse eo combat any injunction proceedings is commended by the citizens who oppose the use of North Twentythird street. The franchise agreement permits the use of North 'nd from Main street to D street, and in the middle of the street from D to E street. This is regarded as the most practicable line. The city park is adjacent to this street on the east side for the four squares between Main and D streets and there never will be any residences along this side. This leaves but one square of residences and at the same time removes the tracks from the park. Property Deal Closed Practically. The deal for the property located at the southwest corner of Seventh and North D streets, where it is proposed to locate the freight depot of the interurban companies is practically closed. If this deal goes through work on the removal of the present buildings and the construction of a freight depot will not be delayed by any action in regard to the selection of the freight route In the East End. Dayton & Western to Apply. It is expected that the Dayton & Western Traction company will apply to the board of public work3 for a franchise this week. It is understood thia line will ask .only for the same consideration shown the Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Eastern.

THAW MAY GO BACK Court Decides to Put Thaw Behind Matteawan Walls. A FIGHT WILL BE MADE. New York, June 27. Learning that Supreme Court Justice Morehauser had decided to order the immediate transfer of Harry K. Thaw from the Dutchess county jail at Poughkeepsie, back to the Matteawan asylum for the criminal insane, counsel for the young millionaire secured a new writ of habeas corpus to prevent his removal. The new -writ was secured by Lawyer Russell A. Peabody, of New York, who went to Troy to get it. He found Supreme Court Justice Mills In his home there and had that justice gign the writ. It is returnable for argument at White Plains. N. Y., on Thaw In roughkeepsie until that time, j Thaw's counsel, it was learned, are now prepared to ask for a trial by jury to pass on his sanity and the argument on the new writ will be along this line. The Thaw family have retained Charles Morehauser, d brother of Supreme Court Justice Morehauser. and also of Pouslikeeptiie, to head the array of Thaw lawyers who will appear at White Plains on Monday. It is said that Attoreny Morehauser will present the argument for The trial by jury .for Thaw. The order of Judge Morehauser was to be issued independently of the decision of Supreme Court Justice Dowling. of New York, upon the re-

Count the. Cream You would all eat Mapl-Flake if it cost 10 cents per package. You would all want our maple flavor our perfect cooking were it not for that five-cent difference. But what if Mapl-Flake is 15 cents? Figure the whole, cost the food and the cream together. Cream costs as much on poor food as on good food. See how little you save. You want Mapl-Flake because it tastes best. But that is of least importance. The vital fact is that Mapl-Flake is cooked best. Our process requires 96 hours. That is four times as long as it need take four times as long as it does take some others. There is where our extra cost comes in. But all of the wheat is thus made digestible. By g shorter process it is not. Starch, to be digestible, must be made soluble. The particles must be separated for the digestive juices. That requires proper cooking. So our wheat is steam-cooked for six hours, then cured, then flaked, then toasted 30 minutes at 400 degrees. That process is expensive, but it is necessary, else we would not employ it. For without it wa could give you Mapl-Flake at 10 cents.

Isn't it better to have a food that's all food, because every whit digests? Isn't it even more economical? j We boil our wheat in pure maple syrup the source cf our delicious flavor. That is less important to you, perhaps, than it is to a child. It induces a child to like the food that is best for it. - , Wheat is the perfect food Mapl-Flake its perfect form. But the deciding point with a child, youH find, is the maple sugar flavor The only food serred in fadhrldaal pmckMres in hotels, clabi. cafes, and on dminr cars.
