THE BOARDS AT POLICE COURT THIS MORNING. Father Arrested and Son Escapes Only to Appear at Dramatic ment of Parent's Trial. One of the most peculiar and diamatic scenes that have ever been enacted in the police court of this city occurred this morning during the trial of the case of John Gilmore, an old man, who was charged with train climbing. When the case was called tor trial Pennsylvania Detective Adams appeared against him. He stated that he found the in box car that was part of a may, ass freight that had just come in from the west.

The arrest was made about noon yesterday and the detective stated that there was another man with him, but he got away. The old man was then asked if he had anything to say and he took the witness chair. He stated that he was on the way to the Pennsylvania round house to see a friend of his son. They had reached a crossing in the east end which was blocked by a long string of freight cars, and they decided to seek shelter from the terrible storm in a car, the door ot which stood invitingly open. They got inside soon the train began to move, and when it stopped they were at the depot and the arrest was made.

Then Deputy Prosecutor Gandy began to ask questions, none of which inquired about we man that got away and was with the old man in the car. The old man among other things said he had a son, and then the prosecutor asked: "Where is your son now?" "Right here, sir!" came the reply in regulation dramatic school tones from the crowd of spectators that packed the space from rail to wall. The hero had chosen his, place -in fact couldn't have done better if Belasco had rehearsed it, and he had no diffculty in stepping to the court space and taking the witness chair. He told the same story as his father had done, and stated that he was the man in the car. He said that both 1 he and his father were miners, had left Old Mexico two weeks ago, that they lived in Rhode Island and that they were on their way back there.

He stated that they had gotten out of work on account of the poor. market for the grade of copper they mined, had run out of money at Columbia City and had walked here hoping to get work at the Pennsylvania round house. The family resources were 60 cents, but they were well dressed in miners' garments and the judge gave them an hour to get out of the city. The father seemed to be a remarkably well preserved man, despite the fact that the son was at least thirty years of age. He had a new phrase for box cars, calling them "wagons." They both had the eastern lingo and there seemed to be no doubt of the truth of their story.

Henry Peters, another train climber, got an out-going trip on sixty-minute schedule planned for him. Other Cases.

The old time hot biscuit played a prominent role in the breakfast bill of fare, along with fried potatoes, ham and eggs, and coffee. The whiter and lighter the biscuit the more pleased the cook, which was usually Mother, who did the best she could, with her understanding of the matter. But most people have learned in recent years, that white flour lacks the nourishing elements of the entire wheat berry, and many cases of imperfect nutrition follow its use.

In Grape-Nuts, all the food elements of wheat and barley are used, and this largely accounts for results similar to those given in the following letter: "I wish to tell of the health and strength-giving properties of GrapeNuts. I am 45 years old and had for years been afflicted with indigestion and other stomach troubles, brought 011 by eating hot biscuit, white bread and improperly cooked cereals. "Noticing an advertisement stating the benefits derived from eating Grape-Nuts, I was skeptical because I had tried so many so-called 'health I thought it would be useless to try Grape-Nuts. "But during the last six months I have been eating it, my stomach has been the best for years, my mind clear, my nerves quiet and a feeling of buoyancy pervades my whole being. "This I attribute to Grape-Nuts as have left off using medicines.

I now firmly believe in the brain-clearing, nerve-steadying and muscle-building properties of Grape- Nuts. "I am healthier than I have been for years, weigh 180 which is more than ever before."
