1t is singular how rapidly news
travels. Mrs. Willis p. Travis, Of Pitts
burg. Pa, was given up to die by her
physician. Her form was wasted away
and her appetite completely gone.
Nothing In the world seemed able to
last resort, Mishler's Herb Bitters was
suggested. Almost without hope, the
first dose was administered, but the eff
feet was almost instantaneous. To make
long short story, Mrs. Travis was COM
pletely cured.

The advocates of electricity very
truly claim the following superiority
over steam traction as a railway motor:
absence of smoke and cinders; 1t oh
viates all danger from explosion; 1t does
away with the necessity for heavy loco
motives and tenders, and allows Of
lighter bridges and tracks; the rails are
not worn out SO fast, as a perfect rotary
motion is communicated to the driving
wheels, aud there is no pounding or
jumping Of the motor; no obstruction
can throw the train from the track, az
the current is neutralized by the OBJ
struction itself, and the train comes to
stop before the obstruction Is reached.
A broken rail or an open drawbridge
would break the current, SO that the
train could not reach the point of dan
ger. BY proper arrangement of con
nections it would be impossible for any
train to proceed to n section already oc-
oupied by another train, and collisions
would be impossible"

THE needs OF San Antonio In the way
of school buildings is not great three
story houses, to which children have to
go from points two or three miles dis.
tant, but little four room buildings scat
tered all over the city, so that they can
be reached conveniently at all times and
in all kinds of weather. These would
meet the wants far better and more
satisfactorily, besides being cheaper
than the large buildings. In some ofthe
rooms Of the Third and Fourth ward
schools, the attendance is from 75 to so
in the morning, and then these children
are replaced in the afternoon by as
many more different ones. Such n state
of affairs Is disgrace to the school
management and fraud not only on the
teachers ard the children, but the pa
rents rs well. san Antonio is able, and
should promptly remedy this matter.

TnE place where the "painier laid
down." to use the expression Of mn en-
vious newspaper who thereby alluded
to Fort Worth, is very much broke up
over the attempt by the County Attor-
ney to enforce the gambling and saloon
laws. But II ia the natural result Of the
demand OF popular opinion, and com
munites and individuals will realize
that because few men who are en-
gagged in an unholy calling are made to
become law-abiding citizens, that the
town is not going to die and everybody
go in mourning over the alleged wrongs
Of the sports. The 100 indictments made
in Fort Worth are n good investment,
and will prove so In the end.
