Shsinnn's Prrly Ash Riitsls md MiIarifdgss.

THESE BITTERS will prevent con-
tracing of Chills and all Malarial Diseases,
if properly used, by invigorating the liver,
toning the stomach and regulating the bow
els ana kidneys. 1t is preparation from
such vegetable extracts, Of which Prickly
Ash constitutes leading part, that enters
into the regular prescription practice of all
medical men, among whom DR.. Sherman
is justly classed as the successful compoun-
der, after an experimental practice of 50
years, as complete antidote to all infu-
,ences which, if not arrested in time, terulin-
ate in Chills and Fever or OF. .ei malignan
diseases.
Though pleasant to the taste, it is not a
beverage las the extracts are held ir solu-
ton in pure Holland Gin only, because of
its cathartic properties, and is therefore an
infailible remedy for habitual constipation.
THE MALARIFUGE is a certain cure
for Chills when once contracted. 1t has
never failed to effect cure where the direc-
tons, accompanying each bottle, are fol-
lowed.
Druggists are hereby authorized to refund
the money to any party purchasing; who
claim cure is not effected. providing the
directions are followed and the empty bot
lie returned For sale by ali druggists.

SANTA FE MACHINE SHoPs.-
The report published a few days
ago-but not by the BANNER
that the machine shops of this
company were to be located at
Bellville is a canard without any
foundation whatever. The BAN
NER learns from undoubted au-
thority that the machine shops
have not been located at all.
The probability is that Bren-
ham stands as good a chance
as any other point, if not better.
Our citizens desire them located
here and will do a fair thing by
the company.

observation-disclosures
evening the BRENNAN Greys en-
augurated a new species of
amusement in this section, it
being a tete-ehampehe or enter
tainment in the open air. The
school grounds, in which is a
beautiful grove, were brilliantly
illuminated-the lamps or torch
es which have heretofore done
faithful service in democratic
professions during the last pres
idential canvass, being again
utilized. The colored brass
band was in attendance and dis
coursed very good music.
About two hundred and fifty
ladies and gentlemen we're on
the grounds and spent the eve
ming in social conversation,
promenading and a few indulg-
ed in dance on the sward-it
wasn't green as the grass has
been killed by the school chill
dren using it as a play ground.
There were one or two ice
cream stands presided over by
beautiful and attractive ladies
and soda fountain presided over
by private Bell, of the Greys,
with true soldierly dignity and
urbanity. The polls" were
quite an attraction to the male
portion of the assembIage as for
the small sum of a nickel one
could vote for the ugliest man
and in addition had the glorions
privilege of voting early and
often" The polls" realized
of six dollars. Mr.. ].
Walter Barnett, private and sec
rotary Of the Greys, received
sixty-fve votes and was duly
elected the ugliest man. Mr..
Barnett bears his honors SEEM
ingly. The tett-ehampetre was
a complete success financially
and in every other respect.

THE SANTA FE RoAD.-The
engineer corps started north
from Brennan a few days ago
and ran a preliminary line as
far as the Roberts place seven
miles from town. The engin-
GERS were then recalled and
have gone below on the line to
cross-section the road where
work is in progress. The BAN
NER 1earns,that the company is
not entirely. satisfied with the,
line selected through town, the
chief objection, if we are prop
erly informed, being a sharp
curve below Judge McFarland's
place. tits understood that the
president, board of directors
and chief engineer will be here
on Tuesday, when it is to be
hoped the matter will be finally
and satisfactorily adjusted.

PAUPERs.-The BANNER learns
from Mr.. Sam Stone, contractor
for taking care of the paupers,
that he has only seven on the
poor farm. In January last, be-
fore the poor farm was estab-
lished, there was upward of fifty
paupers on the county's rolls.
all of whom were promptly on
hand to draw their allowance Of
county scrip. The establish
ment of a home for paupers has
reduced the number to its pres
ent proportions.

About Nicaragua Wheat.

Editors Banner:
l was pleased at reading your
article on Nicaragua wheat.
Having paid some attention to
the subject l will give my expe-
rience regarding it. In this sec
ton of the state it maks a GER
tain crop. Planted in Septem-
Der or October II makes a SUI
perb winter pasture ) four acres
of it being more than equal to
a hundred bushels Of corn, and
after being pastured all the Win
ter it will yield from Is to 80
bushels of wheat. 1t is anti
rust and will yield as well here
as in northern Texas.
i have often ate bread made
Of the flour of this wheat and
like it quite as we'll as bread
made of the common wheat
flour; it is as nutritious and full
ly as healthy as any other -four
bread. An intelligent miller up
the country informed me that If
the grain was soaked in water
over night or steamed a few
hours it was as easily ground as
any other wheat.
AS, the corn crop is very short
this season l would suggest a
liberal planting of this wheat
for pasture and breadstuff. If
nothing more it will prevent a
vast amount of suffering among
the stock next winter.
l would further suggest that
some of our enterprising mer-
chants procure a qauntity of
this wheat and sell it for seed.
