Chapman, who lives at 2166 Gladys avenue, Chicago, Is my guardian. By provision of law he was authorized to send me $60 a month for my support, but he has never'done so. I became expert In music during my long stay at the Whittier School, and can play several instruments. I was a good boy and got paroled. I should not have left California, for that was one of the. conditions of the pardon, but I wanted to get out and make my way in the world In new surroundings. In searching for a better position than I had at the Fair grounds, I called at' a large hotel here to nsk for the posi tion of drummer, as they had adver tised for one for their orchestra. I truthfully told them I learned music in the Reform School, and they Imme diately told the police. I was then taken to headquarters.

"During the time I was a coffee drink er," says an Iowa woman, "I was nerv ous, had spoils with my heart, smothering speiis, ncaaacne. stomacn irouoicj liver and kidney trouble. I did not know for years what made me have those spells. I would frequently sink away as though my last hour had come. "For 27 years I suffered thus and used bottles of medicine enough to set up a drugstore capsules and pills and every thing I heard of. Spent lots of money. but I was sick nearly all the time. Some times I was so nervous I could not hold a plate in my hands; and other times I thought I would surely die sitting at the table. "This went on until about two years ago, when one day I did not use any cof fee and I noticed I was not so nervous. and told my husband about It He had been telling me that it might be the cof fee, but I said 'No. 1 have been drinking coffee all my life and It cannot be.' But after this I thought I would try and do without It and drink hot water. I did this for several days, but got tired of the hot water and went to drinking coffee and as soon as I began coffee again I was nervous again. This proved that It was the cofTee that caused my troubles. we had tried Postum, but had not made It right and did not like it but now I decided to give it another trial, so I read the directions on the package care fully and made it after these directions and It was simply delicious, so we quit coffee for good, and the results are won derful. Before. I could not sleep, but now I go to bed and sleep sound, am not a bit nervous now, but work hard and can walk miles. Nervous headaches are gone, my heart does not bother me any more like It did and I don't have any of the smoth ering spells and would you believe It? I am getting fat We drink Postum now and nothing else and even my husband's headaches have disappeared; we both sleep sound and healthy now and that's a blessing." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek. Mich. Look for the book, "The Road to Wcll ville." In each package. OBJECTTOTHE COST East Stark Street Bids Too High for Owners. BIDS TO BE RE-ADVERTISED Question of Oiling Roads Is Dis cussed by Street Committee, and City Engineer Wanrer Will 3Iakc Inquiries. When the question of awarding con tracts for street Improvements came up before the street committee of the Ex ecutive Board yesterday afternoon, there was such a howl of disapprobation from property-owners relative to the magni tude of the cost of the proposed Improve ment of East Stark from the east line of East Ninth to the west line of East Twen tieth street, that the committee con cluded to readvertlse. The bids were opened last Friday, and the Pacific Bridge Company was the only bidder for the entire work at 119.726.78. although Joplln & Mceks put In a bid of $137.45 for a fraction of the work running from the center line of East Ninth to the cast line of East Ninth street All the other awards for street Im provements submitted at tho last meet ing of the Executive Board were made upon the basis of the lowest bid. The following streets were accepted: East TweKth, from the south line of Multnomah to the south line of Tilla mook, and East Fifteenth, from the north line of Multnomah to the south line of Thompson. The committee did not feel disposed to accept East Stark street, from the cen ter line of East Seventh to the center line of East Ninth, and Burnside, from the east line of Third to the east line of Front, without further Investigation, hence action thereon was postponed un til the next meeting. A resolution requesting the Executive Board to remove the guards on cither side of the railway tracks across the Morrison-street bridge was referred to the City. Engineer for Investigation, although Captain Wanzer did not view the Idea In a favorable light The proposition of the Ladd Estate to furnish material with which to redeck the elevated railway along East Stark street from Grand avenue to East Sev enth street providing the cljy would fur nish the labor, was accepted. The committee postponed action on the petition of J. A. Venning and others to compel the street railway company to operate Its cars on Chapman street, or else suffer the revocation of Its franchise there, as more time was wanted In which to Investigate the matter. The question, of oiling some of the' streets In the city suburbs came up for consideration, and after considerable dis cussion. City Engineer "Wanzer was di rected to correspond with districts In California, where petroleum has been used on the public highways, and advise the committee at its next meeting of the result of his researches upon the subject. Street "Work Accepted. The following acceptances for street Improvements and sewer work were made yesterday by the City Engineer: In favor of Bechlll Bros., for the Im provement of Borthwlck street, be tween the north line of Kllllngsworth avenue and the north line of West "Piedmont, delinquent 104 days; War ren Construction Company, for th Im provement of Fifth street between the north curb-line of Irving street and the north line of Jefferson; Warren Construction Company, for the Im provement of Yamhill street, between the west lino of Fourth and the east line of Sixteenth; Bechlll Bros., for eight-inch sewer on Ford street; J.

Then Into the remilars roeu T? and is assigned to a dinky post down in tne cactus ana amaii. 59 miles away from the Santa Fe, to which a stage runs every' day In spite of weather and road agents. This Is where the play opens. Ranson has been at the post long enough to cuss his luck because there is no active service In sight As might be expected there is a post trader's daughter, another edition of "Hope Langham." who wins Ranson's heart and gives her own in return. This girl seems to be the only reason why the young lieutenant hasn't bolted the Army and gone, to Panama or Tonopah. In the first act when the hero's dis gust at the dust and the gnats and the 50 miles frpm a railroad Is greatest the mess starts talking of stage holdups. Ranson declares that any old piker has nerve enough to rob a stage.. The other fellows who know the frontier better, hold a different vJew, and to to prove his theory he starts out to rob the stage on its night trip with no more formida ble weapons than a pair of scissors. He has a revolver on him but agrees to ac complish the Joke without displaying It The others try to dissuade him from his wild prank, but he persists, and goes out into the night to play the trick. This is Ranson's folly. He succeeds in his bluff for he finds only two women In the stage and the driver "throws up" at sight of the gleaming scissors, mistaking them for a "six," in the moonlight He does n't realy rob anybody and rides back to quarters, laughing at the ruse only to find that there has been a real holdup, that a paymaster coming along the same road In another vehicle has been robbed shortly afterward, while the driver and himself are more or less shot-up. Here Is a pretty kettle of fish for Ran son. and he Is promptly arrested on the charge of being the sanguinary highway man. Of course everybody but the pretty girl believes him guilty, and equally of course In the end the real culprit Is brought In and the matter Is Ironed out with a promise of a jretty military wed ding soon to be announced. "Ranson's Folly" was a corking good army story when It was published three or four years ago, and It makes a better play. It Is the best of the Davis efforts at dramatization and has most of the in gredients of permanent success. Robert Edeson played It. In New York !ajt sea son, and last night Daniel Frawley re turned to Portland after a long absence with It as his vehicle. He acts the dashing role of Lieutenant Ranson so well that old Portland ad mirers of the star congratulated them selves that he Is the same old Frawley, only better. The piece Is well calculated to give a star full leeway and a good portion of the center of the stage. He has a lot of splendid speeches and situations, and FfHwiey misses none. There Is- an In ptuue iead for Eleanor Montell. a very winsome and capable young actress, who gives a splendid account of herself. Mark Price, an old-time visitor .to Portland. Is seen as the post trader with a gun record who dotes on his daughter, and gives an excellent performance. Frazer Coulter TV. H. Burton and Grace Thome, also competent players, are In the cast. "Ranson's Folly" suggests "Arizona without Infringing too strongly upon It Not so good, there ar no American plays as good as rUoBa," but the atmosphere is the same nnd It Is chuck full of it I intend no disparagement of tho present f)Iece. It is a thoroughly good and enjoyable play and In this In stance well acted. A large audience gave It a hearty reception last night.

CLUBR00MS ARE CROWDED His Theme Is "Business Building by Salesmanship" and He. Arouses the Greatest Interest 'by His Brilliant Talk. The Pacific Coast Advertising Men's As sociation could not have capped the cli max of a wonderfully successful conven tion In a more fitting way than by process of the lecture given last night under their auspices by A. F. Sheldon, of Chicago, who talked on the subject of "Business Building by Salesmanship." The reception rooms of the Commercial Club were crowded to their fullest capac ity by an Interested audience, many of whom are prominent In local commercial circles. The speaker, who possesses a re markably pleasing manner, held the clos est attention throughout, and made many telling points In the emphasis of his Ideas. His address was directed mainly to common-sense principles In business, and he appealed with clear-cut force to the sen timent of honesty in all commercial rela tionship. He said that P. T. Barnum had given voice to the Idea that the American public liked to be humbugged, and yet nobody disbelieved the suggestion any more fully than the great showman him self, who gave more than value received in every one of his performances Mr. Sheldon also regarded It as exceedingly poor policy to pay any heed to the theory that there Is "a sucker born every min ute." because. In the natural order of things, there are a whole lot more of sen sible people born at the -same time, and It was a poor fundamental rule for a man to regulate his business to catch "the minority. Believes In Business Ethics. The speaker was a stanch believer in business ethics, also, and thought thAt there was as much Justification for ethics in trade as there was for ethics In the professions. It was no part of wisdom, he said, for commercial interests to be continuously at war. or for business com petition to generate petty Jealousies. There ought to be an understanding upon a basis of mutual benefit and this could only be accomplished when there was an establishment of friendly relationship among the large Institutions instead of distrust and competitive enmity. He related many amusing anecdotes to Illustrate his views, and depicted in the most telling fashion the difference be tween a good salesman and one of In ferior variety. At 4:30 o'clock this after noon Mr. Sheldon will speak at the First Unitarian Church to the employes of Olds, Wortman & King, who have consented to close their establishment on purpose to permit those working for the firm to get the benefit of his advanced Ideas upon the subject Announcement. Mr. A. F. Sheldon respectfully an nounces to the business houses and anv indlvlduals who may be interested in his work, that he will be In the city a few day and will the glad to furnish full In formation concerning the Sheldon School.
