Resting After Meals.

A friend of the writer's who has sur
fered from dyspepsia during almost all
her,entre life, considers the suggestions
in the following extracts from an ar.
ticle in u recent issue of the Journal o.
Health to be the most in accord with
her own experience of anything on the
subject lately published;
Hurried eating of meals, followed i'm,
mediately by some employment that
occupies the whole attention and takes
up all, or nearly all, of the physical en-
ergies, is sure to result in dyspepsia in
one form or another Sometimes it
shows itself in excessive irritability, a
sure indication that nerve force has
been exhausted; the double draught in
order TO digest the food and carry OIL
the business has been more than nature
could stand without being thrown out
of balance. In another case, the per-
son is exceedingly dull as soon as he
has few minutes of leisure. The mind
seems n dead blank, and can only move
IN its accustomed channels. and then
only when compelled. This, also, is an
indication OF nervous exhaustion. 9th
ers will have decided pains in the stom-
ach, or sense of weight, rs if a heavy
burden was inside.
Others, again, will be able to eat
nothing that will agree with them;
everything that is put inside the stom-
ach is made the subject of violent
protest on the part of that organ, and
the person suffers untold agonies in
consequence Others suffer from con-
slant hunger They may eat all they
can, and feel hungry still. If they feel
satisfied for little time, the least un-
usual exerton brings on the hungry
feeling and they can do no more until
something is eaten. Ii is almost need
less to say that this condition is not
hunger, but inflammation of the ston-
ach. Scarcely any two persons are
affected exactly in the same way, the
disordered condition manifcsting itself
according to temperament and occupa-
ton, employments that call for mental
work, and those whose scene of action
lies indoors, affecting person more
seriously than those carried on in the
open air and those which are merely
mechanical and do not engage the
mind.
All. or nearly all, of these difficulties
of digestion might have never been
known by the sufferers had they left
their business behind them and rested |
a short time after eating, instead of
rushing off to work Immediately after
hastily swallowing their food.
Nature does not do two things at
time, and do both well, rs rule. All
know that when force is divided it is |
weakened. If the meal were eaten
slowly, without preoccupation of the
mind, and the stomach allowed at least
half an hours chance to get its work
we'll undertaken before the nervous
Iorce is turned in another direction, pa
tents suffering from dyspepsia would
be few.
A physician once said: 1T does not
10 much matter what we eat as how we
lat it." While this is only partly true,
t certainly is true that the most health
ul food hurricdly eaten, and immedi-
ltely followed by work which engages
he entire available physical and mental
orces, is much worse than meal of
Door food eaten leisurely and followed
" an interval of rest. -.imericdn CuL.

Miss Adelaide Randall Delighted the Au-
dience With Her Impersonation.
The BljOu Opera company appeared
In Turner opera house last night aud
presented the "MikadO." or course
Miss Adelaide Randall was the "Yum
YUM" and it is safe to say that more
piquant and lively impersonatiOn Of the
character WAS never presented. And
her singing all through was artistic and
viyactOus in the extreme, breathing, as
IL were, the life Of the opera. All the
solos were well rendered and applau-
ded, but the charming rendition Of ''The
Moon and l, was most raptureously re-
ceived. The "Pitti Sing" Of the prima
donDs's sister, Clara Randall, and The
pee Boo" of Gertrude HOyt, were adj
mirable In their way. As "Nanki- Poe, :"
Herman Waldo acted well, but his tenor
lacked the timber essential for good
rendition Of the character. Arthur W .
Tanis' "Koko" was original and humor-
GUS in the extreme, and "Katisha" To-
the hands OF Mrs. Dixie, was an
representation OF great excel
lence. Her singing added to the ex-
cellence Of the character. The remainder
OF the caste were fairly we'll filled, tho
opera was eXcellently mounted, the
NhNooNo phhi hht, tht kOOu ullt
the tout ensemble was admirable. As II
result the audience we're well pleased
with the entertainment.
Tonight the company will play for the
first time In San Antonio, Offenbach's
sparkling opera bouffe, The Princess OF
Trebizonde." The dresses in this oper I.
are magnificent and the mountings are
pleasing, which will add considerably to
the usual brilliancy OF the performance.

Old Landmark Gone.

Work of tearing out the old building
occupied so long by Mr.. Narciso Leal as
live stock sale and exchange yard be-
gan Monday. Timbers said to be over
100 years OF age were taken out Of the
building in as sound condition as tho
day they were put in. The building was
built in the old Spanish days, and was
for a quarter Of a century or more an
old landmark. 1t belongs to Mr.. Victor
Beze, who like all land owners in this
city, reserves the right to all treasure
which may be found in excavating for
the cellars. Mr.. Leal, who has &C.
cupied this stand continuously for more
than 20 years, computes that during
this time he has handled as q dealer
more than 2.130,0O0 animals of all kinds

standing the immense and constant
drain by the large daily sales which
keep the large number of statesmen in
constant employment, Mr.. Wolfson
keeps and adds daily supplies to the
same, and no establishment In the south
has as magnificent an assortment In
style, variety or quality as to make up
price or otherwise than this establish
ment. There has also just been opened
up large stock of winter overcoats,
which for low price and fine quality OF

dali at the Maverick hotel. where the
prima donna Is quartered In the course
OF conversation Miss. Randall said:
"This Is the first time that have hal
the pleasure Of visiting Texas for about
four years, and am perfectly astOnish-
ed at the Improvement that find In all
parts Of the state. The reason for my
absence is mainly that have had stand
ing operate engagements in New York,
Philadelphia and Boston. / have sang
considerably In Italian operas. in fact,
made my debut in them, and have been
attached to the Abbott, Hess and other
standard companies. OF course, | prefer
the grand opera as 1t gives vocalist
the better chance of exhibiting the vocal
powers, hut the comic opera pays best
and we have to supply what the public
want. My company is not large one,
but they are all selected for their espe.
Cial merits. All are workers, there are
no drones. and we keep no sticks for the
mere show OF the thing. NY tour In
Texas has been most satisfactory, and |
have done very good business. | am
perfectly Delighted with your quaint
city, and like your critical audiences.
They know what is good and will APP
plaud it. In coming here / have en-
deayored to present something novel and
good. We have had considerable draw
backs, but we hope to please the people
and leave a pleasant impression behind
US that will secure us hearty welcome
when we return.
Miss Randall Is a very pleasant lady,
and is remarkably good conversation
list. She Is not brunette nor Is she n
blonde, but she Is fairly graded between.
She has comely face, a graceful form,
that pleases one, and yet she would not
be characterized as beautiful. There is,
however. an mate sweetness about her
that charms and attracts, and this added
to her natural vivacity makes her very
popular wherever she goes. 1t may be
added, Miss Randall is the daughter OF
an old Baltimore newspaper man, and is
a native OF that city.

THREATENED RAILROAD STRIKE.

Inc Locomotive Engineers ana BrOtner-
hood Brakemen Seeking Justice.
The fires of deep disseutions are burn
ing betwee the officials of the Southern
Pacific and the engineers and brakemen
on the road, and, although neither will
give any authoritive statement on the
subject, there can be no question that
matters are assuming a serious aspect.
The Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engin-
GERS are moving in the matter to redress
their grievances, and committee, con-
sisting of Ben A. Pickering, John Bell
San Antonio; Cal Ellis, FL Psso, and
Robert Jankes, w. Holmes and w.
Campbell, are interviewing the officials
on the part of the brethren, but at pres
ent they have not got any satisfaction,
and it is said that the officials have not
treated them with due consideration. 1t
Is rumored that Chief Arthur will short
ly arrive In New Orleans and will pro-
coed thence to Houston for the purpose
OF investigating both sides Of the case.
The Brakemen's committee who went
TO see Mr.. Hutchinson In New Orleans,
to have the old agreement faithfully ad-
hered to, have Jared no better. Mr..
Hutchinson simply referred them to Mr..
Queyrouse, and he, in his turn, referred
to Mr.. j. kTuttschnitI, the assistant
manager. Matters are waiting further
Developments, in the meantime Grand
Master wilkinson, of Galesbury, is In

clouds that shadow the harmony lights
