HE RECOVERS WITH

Of A CHILD Once Alert Business Man Has to Be Taught to Walk, Speak and Write. HURT IN RAILWAY ACCIDENT HAD TO BE INTRODUCED TO HIS WIFE AND CHILDREN AND IS BUSY NOW LEARNING HIS A. B. C.'S AN APT PUPIL. Omaha, Net., March 15.-0. Raschke, e twenty-seven year old business man of Omaha, has suddenly reverted to the condition of a little child and is jiow busily engaged in learning bis "A B. C's" and getting acquainted with his own wife and children. It took him a week to learn to walk and two weeks to learn simple words of one syllable, but he has not yet mastered the art of writing his own name. In fact, he had to learn what his name was before he could make an attempt to learn to spell it. Thirty days ago, Raschke, a keen, alert business man, met with an accident that rendered him unconscious, when he recovered, his mind was blank. It was necessary that he be Introduced to his own - wife and children; he had to ask the identity of his own father and even to get some one to tell him his own name. All day he elts at a window of his home and looks out at the wonderful things which pass the house and which his little boy tells him are horses, dogs, wagons and street cars. At times the woman whom they tell him is his wife, assists him at studying queer lines which she calls "A B C." And he learns quickly, too, never having to be told the same thing twice. How He Was Hurt. It was early in January that Raschke went to Sioux City on a business trip. Returning, when the train stopped at Bancroft, Neb., he swung off for a breath of fresh air. As the train started Raschke stepped aboard. Before he got his balance the train lurched and his head struck a brass rod. He fell from the platform onto the frozen ground and was picked up unconscious and taken ' to the depot. He did not recover' consciousness for twenty-four hours. Papers in his pockets disclosed his Identity and address and he was brought to a hospital in Omaha. When he recovered consciousness his mind was a complete blank. He heard the nurses and physicians talking and tried to imitate them. The ability to talk returned rapidly. One day his wife and two little boys were admitted to the room. Not a sign of recognition did he show. "Don't you know us, Otto?" asked Mrs. Raschke, .with tears in her eyes. "I never saw you before," answered otto. ;. . . He was told that this wis his wife, and that the children were his own. "That's funny?' he said. "The idea of me having a wife and children." His Own Home Strange to Him. After three weeks in the hospital, during which he learned to walk a little, Raschke was taken to his home, which he did not recognize when he entred With a child's inability to judge distance, Raschke was at first afraid to attempt to walk for fear of falling. "Who is that man?" he asked. "Tell him to go out." "Why, Otto, that's your father," he was told by his wife. Raschke had been very fond of his father, but in his new condition he abhors the very sight of him. Formerly Raschke was an in veterate smoker. Soon after his re turn home he saw a man smoking and asked what he was doing. He was of fered a cigar, but declared he did not like the odor. A) week later he smoked one and was made violently ill. The most wonderful thing he has seen so far is a horse, and he never tires of watching the wagons pass his house. When a four-horse dray came by he screamed with delight and called his wife to see the wonderful sight. The electric light was a great mystery ARITHMETIC AND FOOD School Children Must be Fed Right. A young girl in Ind. says no one has a better right to speak of Grape-Nuts food than she. "I was in school, but in poor health, until Mamma began to give me GrapeNuts food. I began to improve at once, both mentally and physically, and I improved so in my work at school that I got 100 in arithmetic and during that time I gained 3 or 4 pounds in weight. "There is no one has a right to rec ommend the food more highly than I. Mamma neglected to supply it for about three weeks, and I began to fail m hAoltk a era I n art f rnmmart.kl tha use of the food over, and now I don't intend to do without Grape-Nuts on the table. . , It is well for parents to know that Grape-Nuts food contains selected elements from the grains, prepared and cooked in such a way as to present these food elements so that they can be quickly digested and assimilated; the phosphate of potash obtained from the field grains, and contained In Grape-Nuts unites with the albumen of food to quickly rebuild the gray It is of the greatest importance that growing children and students be giv en food that sustains both brain and nerves.

"They tell me she is my wife and that these children are mine," said Raschke the other day. "I have taken their word for so many things that I am believing them in this, but it seems mighty strange to me. At first I did not know how to think aUout them, but I grew to love them again. Everything is nev and strange, and I

TAGGART WINNER III HOTEL TRIAL Jury's Verdict Exonerates Al legation of Gambling Made by State. FINDING AS PREDICTED SPORTING FRATERNITY OF THIS STATE HAD WATCHED ANNULMENT TRIAL WITH INTERESTASK NEW TRIAL. Paoli, Ind., March 15. The French Lick Hotel company and Thomas Taggart won the verdict in the Casino suit last night. The state charged that the hotel company had countenanced gam bling at the Casino in connection with the hotel. The state will ask for a new trial. The jury took three ballots, the first two being eleven to one for the defendant. The juror who stood with the state in the first two ballots, it is declared was John Brothers. Assistant State's Attorney White and Thompson say if a new trial is refused, the case will be appealed to the supreme court. Verdict Was as Predicted. The verdict Is generally predicted. Public sentiment has been with the hotel company all along. Nobody here wished to see the charter annulled. The verdict probably will be looked upon by the sporting fraternity more or less as a victory for gambling In Indiana. Operatives of poolrooms at Dearborn Park, Jeffersonville, Lawrenceburg and other points in the state have watched the suit with interest and may take encouragement at its outcome. The jury, in its special findings, did not sustain Harry Miller's testimony that he saw Taggart lose $10 at roulette. The jury did not find that the French Lack Springs Hotel company was a party to any of the gambling in the Casino. " Jury Sent Back by Judge. The state's attorney objected to the fury's answer to twenty-five interrogatories. Judge Buskirk sent the jury back to its room to re-answer most of the interrogatories concerning which the state made objections and to answer those in which the jury in its hurry had overlooked. The fact that the jury re-answered these interrogatories In nowise affects the general verdict John W. Kern, former democratic candidate for vice president, was the leading attorney for the hotel company, and James Bingham, attorney general of Indiana, wasin charge of the state's case. There are only half as many opium dens in China as there were eighteen months ago. It Is now difficult to buy opium, except by license, which permits a smoker to buy at one time five drams. Each license costs 10 cents and is good for three months.

Foreigners Sponge' ' Off City Men Who Send Thousands of Dollars Annually to Europe Found Frequenting Pauper Municipal Lodgings.

Chicago, March 15. Flagrant abuse of the purpose of the municipal lodging-house by miserly foreigners and mendicants, who beg for shelter at the city's "hotel," was unearthed yesterday by the health department when it was found that thousands of dollars are being shipped back to the old country annually by these supposed needy and unemployed men. .Fifteen men were found, who, although they had been taking advantage of the free lodging at the municipal lodging-house since October, -190!), had sent, $6,626 back to the old country in that time. The Poles, Austrians and Russians are the worst offenders. Six Poles sent $1,01K) home; two Russians sent $2,700, and to Austrians sent $1,600. One man was found who had been sleeping at the lodging house every night since Jan. 9. A registered letter r jceipt for $25 was found on his person. Strenuous attempts will te put forth to abolish this abuse. The police have been asked to co-operate with the lodging-house superintendent In weeding out the mendicants. Since October, 1900, 1,546 foreigners have applied for lodging. Of this REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS Chas. M. Fagan to Daniel Keiser, Jr., Pt. S. half Sec. 2, Twp. 16, range 12, Jackson Twp. $2,000. Mary E.

The singular habit of signifying anger by yawning is confined to the monkey tribe and is most marloed in the baboon family, though the Gibraltar apes also indulge in it. It is probable that the gesture is originally Intended to frighten an adversary by a display of teeth, just as a dbg does, and that the constant wide opening of the moutb produces an involuntary yawn. In fact, if a human being keep's on opening bis moutb in this way a yawn will result. If two strange baboons are put together in the same cage they immediately confront each other and commence yawning, and if vexed or insulted by visitors they will do the same thing. Froo Samplo For Baby's His Something can and must be done for the puny, crying baby, for the child that refuses to eat and is restless in its sleep. And since the basis of all health is the proper working of the digestive organs, look first to the condition of the stomach and bowels. A child should have two full and free movements of the bowels a day. This emptying- of the bowels is very important, as with it comes a clear head, a lightness of step, good appetite and sound sleep. But it is equally Important to know what to give the child in the emergency of constipation - and indigestion. Cathartics are too strong and salts and other purgatives are not only too strong, but the child refuses them because of their bad taste. Have you ever tried rr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin? It Is a liquid tonic that families have been using for a quarter of a century. It Is mild, -pleasant-tasting and promptly effective. It is good for you as wen as the child, but there Is nothing better to be found for children. They like its taste you will not have to force them to take It. FlTst "'.all. if you have not yet used It. Dr. Caldwell would like to send you a sample bottle free of charge. In this way you can try It before buying. Later, when convinced of its merits, you can get it of your druggist at fifty cents and one dollar a bottle, just as thousands of other families are doing. The family of Mr. D. W. Spangler of Strattonville, Pa., as wen as that of Mr. A. P. Jbhnson of Walnut Grove. Tenn.. started with It In that way and now write that It is their one family necessity next to food itself. If you are unfortunate enough to have a aiciuy cnua. one given to constipation and Indigestion, you should send for a free sample of this remedv. Dr. Caldwell personally win be pleased to give you any medical advice you may desire for yourself or family pertaining- to the stomach, liver or bowels absolutely free of charge. Explain your case In a letter and he will reply to you in detail. For the free sample simply send your name and address on a postal card or otherwise. For either request the doctor's address Is Dr. W. B, Caldwell. R.&04 Caldwell bunding, Moatlcelkv BL

number 477 were naturalized and 3S4 who had been in this country for more than six years had not yet .taken out their papers. The single men numbered 1.364, married men 112, and widowers 00. As compared with the corresponding week of last year, there is a notable improvement in the contagious disease situation in Chicago, excepting as regards measles and whooping cough. Measles still leads all other preventable diseases in the number of reported cases, the total for the week, 367 cases, being nearly 4o per cent of the total cases of all, kinds. Pneumonia is considerably more prevalent than measles however. During the week 160 deaths were reported from the latter disease. Inspectors from the health department have reported considerable trouble with soda water fountains, charging that a large number being operated in the ity are unsanitary and contaminating. The health department in its bulletin, urges the co-operation of all patrons of soda water fountains in an endeavor to compel the proprietors to make their fountains and equipment as near sanitary as possible.

Imagination. Recently a lecturer before one of the classes of the medical department of the University of Louisville told bis pupils that he bad bad a case not long since in which, while the patient was able to do nearly everything for himself. It was necessary to keep an accurate record of his temperature for a certain time. Be left with him a thermometer and Instructed bim in its use. though be did not tell bim what the Instrument was for. "One morning when I went to see him," the professor concluded, "hts first greeting was: 'Well, doc, I kept that dern thing in my mouth all night, and I feel a heap better this mornin. Jreat stuff, ain't it?"' Louisville Times. Though the accidents in the streets of New York are increasing in number the proportion of fatalities is growing less. Out of the last seventeen thousand accidents, 1,200 were classified as serious. .-Making Hi'm Fit. "He is self made, I am told." "Quite true, but his mother-in-law I insists on making alterations."
