''AmeHca has become a land of! nervous emotionalists, largely owing to our Bins against the dietetic health, laws of nature. 'i Only outdoor exercise In a cold climate would enable vigorous individuals of our species to digest yiands forced upon alimentary organs enfeebled by sedentary occupations," writes Dr. Felix Oswald. Brain workers must have different food Jhan day laborers, because brain work" uses up parts of the brain and nerve centres, while physical labor uses up other parts of the body. A food for brain workers has been pared by scientific food makers and called GrapeNuts.

It is a pure, natural food made from selected parts of field grains known to coritain the natural phosphate of potash and other elements used by the system in re- building and repairing the brain and nerve centres. This food Is skillfully cooked at the factory and is ready to be served Instantly either cold with cream, or as a hot breakfast dish! with hot milk or cream poured over it.

N. Collars Parasols Ito More Can be Taken at the County Vorkhouse No Trouble About Taking Care of the Men Sentenced to th County Roads. From Now on the Women Will be Sent to Jail as the Iiaw Ioes Xot Allow. Them to be. Sent' to th Roads.

Entire Police Force on the Lookout for Vagrants. Superintendent of the county home and workhouse I Montgomery sent word to the city authorities yesterday that no more people need be sentenced to his institution as rooms; were occupied and no more guests would be received. -Not a day passes now but several vagrants are arrested and given, terms either on the roads or in the workhouse. The law is such that women cannot be sent to the county roads and df they cannot be taken in at the workhouse the old plan xf sending them to jail will have to be resorted to, but laying up in jail and getting plenty to eat is not much of a punishment for a lazy negro. There is no trouble abou taking care of the men and the officers are on the alert for all negroes who are not at work.

During the summer months ds an excellent time to build roads and if the negroes will not work for money they will have to serve their county free. If it were possible for the poiice to get hold of all the negroes who are vagrants the jails, cells at the city hall and county workhouse would not hold the women and additional guards would have to be employed to guard the men on the roads. But it is a most diffi-J cult task to get hold of all the vagrants. Many of them are as artful in dodging the law as the big trusts. Prior to the last legislature women were not indicted for vagrancy, but the law is now such that they can be gathered in as easily as men and it is indeed well that it is so.

Mayor Waddell had two vagrants before him yesterday, Lizzie Roberson and Carrie Brown, both colored. Each woman got thirty days in the workhouse. This rounds the number of vagrants up to twenty-eight. Chief Williams is determined to get rid of the negroes that have been, breaking into houses in different localities and stealing principally provisions. He is positive that it is the negroes who are not at work that have been committing these robberies, so he has decided to send just as many vagrants as possi ble to the county roads.

The Laurinburg baseball team passed through the city yesterday en route home from a several days stay at Fort Caswell, where they plaed two games with the soldiers. The score was 3 toO. and 6 to 4, both games being in favor of the soldiers. A negro by the name of George Lewis, who is believed to be insane, was taken in custody yesterday and is now, confined at tile city hall and will probably be examined today.

He'is not at all violent, but had been acting in a peculiar manner. Mr. and Mrs. Jesse have the sympathy of many friends in the loss of their infant daughter, Esther May Farrow, who passed' away esterday morning at 5:30. Funeral will take place this morning at 10 o'clock from the residence at Sixth and Queen streets, with interment in Bellevus cemetery.

Walter Chambley, colored, was ai- rested yesterday on the charge of mak ing an assault with a deadly weapon upon Alice Adams. The alleged offense was committed several months ago, but-Chambley left "the city and only came back a few days ago. He will be given a preliminary trial before Justice Bornemann today at .12 o'clock. The firemen have formed a relief association to be know as the Firemen's Relief Association of Wilmington. It will be run on the assessment olan and each fireman will pay into the association the sum of 25 cents each week.

General Manager of the Playhouse Not to be Found. At the Gilbert house in, this city are athered a very dejected crowd of jortals and' most of the number are young girls who are under eighteen years of age; The party is that the company which was brought here by C61onel Hamilton for the Casina on tle beach.

Miss. Dolly Benton and hr Dancing Dimples are minus several weeks pay and not the remotest idea of ever seeing the cash. Colonel Hamilton far some days past has not been found in this part of the country. It has been only little more than tyo weeks since the season at the casino opened with great furore aijid the first night a large crowd was present anu naa me 'coxouei naa a company that could have' made good the venture might hfLv proven a success but as it was the audience wag badly disappointed, the excuse being that all the members of the company hid not arrived. The result was that the people got disgusted and the attendance grew from bad to worse and during the present week the casino was closed and thus the beach isj minus what it was thought would be one of the principal attractions on beach but that was before the opening performance was- given.

Miss Denton and the members of the company are all from Memphis, Tennessee and efforts are being made toi sret them transportation The mother of one young girl wired her transportation and sufficient money to get home on yesterday. Chief Williams has been in communication with the chief of police of Memphis inj-egard to the ybung girl for several days. A telegram received yesterday afternoon notified him that a ticket was at the Seaboard Air Line station for the girl It is said that the others in the party will probably leave for Memphis tms anernoon. The young girl who already has transportation to Memphis says she was to receive fifteen dollars per Week and with this she was to pay her board and other necessary expenses, an but traveling. She says she: has only got five dollars since she went with the.

company and that was some weeks ago. No one said anything to her about board, so she says, that was evidently paid. 'Colonel Hamilton's "personal representative" was here a day or 4wo since but some say he has also: departed. The history of company is but the history of many another company jof a similar order.
