The Cattle Market.
Telegram to the Statesman.

Special Telegram to the Statesman.
FoRT WORTH, February 16.-The lead
ing characteristic of the cattle market in
this city during the week has been mac
tivity. The tendency of the Springer
Oklahoma bill, and the proclamation of
governor Leslie, of Montana, has had
more to do with this probably than any
thing else. The high prices at which beef
cattle are held, however, has contributed
not a little to the general stagna-
ton. How long this thing will
last cannot be stated, but should the
Oklahoma bill fail to become a law, there
will be some activity given the market in
Texas.

Some six weeks ago a rurnor was cur,
rent to the effect that g. w. Nisbet, the
gentlemanly collector of the Los Angeles
City Water Company, had absconded
with some of his employers funds. The
matter was kept very quiet at the time
on account of his relatives, 80 Of whom
residek in this city, and it was at first
supposed that he would return and ex-
plain matters. 1t is stated that Nisbet
failed to account for about $l0O of the
money he collected few days before he
left, and it is believed the fear Of the con-
sequences which might ensue on the dis
covery of his defalcation led him to seek
safety in fight.

DANGEROUS ruRGArrvEs.
A City Policeman's Very Peculiar
Experience.

Mineral pills and drastic purgatives so irritate
the mucous coatings of the stomach and bowels,
that they often leave the system in worse con-
dition than before. In fact their cathartic ac-
tion is due to their irritation. The danger at
tending their steady use is apparent. The new
laxative principle in joys Vegetable sarsaparilla
gets its cathartic action by increasing the mu-
cous secretions and gently stimulating the stom-
ach. 1t is purely vegetable, does not lose its
effect, is effective and absolutely safe to be taken
occasionally or continuously.
