American Depurating Bath

a
Will be found superior TO anything ever Of
fered for the cure of all diseases of the blood,
rheumatism, catarrh and kidney troubles.
AS a remedy in dropsy it is unequaled in eff
cacy in affecting a cure to all medicines and
other agents known to science, and diseases of
the nervous system.
1t is pre-eminently useful in the prevention
and cure of all diseases peculiar to the fe-
male sex. These statements are made after
an experience of years in its use in hundreds
of cases.
BY its construction we are placed in absO-
lutte control Of heat, diffusible stimulent or
unlimited power also of water at the temper
allure of the blood; sedative to the nervous

denotes
1t acts by establishing perfect circulation
in the capillaries of the entire skin, removing
congestion, and at the same time depurating
LIKELIHOOD of all poisonous and effete matter,
thus renovatlng the organic nervous system
and vitalizing the functions. During the en-
tire time of bathing the person is completely
protected from the inhalation of effete matter
and poisonous inhalation from his own body
or the bodies of other bathers.
The submerging OF the body in water ar
rests depuratiOn from the SKIN, whereas by
the application of water in sprays, as in this
bath, the elimination of etfete matter is rapid
ly increased.
You receive the same baths that are given
at Hot Springs, here in your own home, that
will cost you time and big expense to go
abroad.
For malaria, kidney trouble, rheumatism,
catarrh, dropsy, it has no equal. 1t admits OF

Persons taking baths are provided with
suit of rooms in a retired part of the city.

THE NEW YORK STRIKE.
R1oToUs PROCEEDINGS.

RIOTOUS PROCEEDINGS.
New YORK, Jan. 81 about . % clock
fully 5000 strikers were assembled at the
belt line stables. A large force of police
officers were on hand to receive
them. The mob will try to
prevent car being run
by the belt line. Latest advices say they
began tearing up the tracks in Fifty
seventh street, and the police intend to
charge them. There is likely to be Sc
rious trouble.
Before the police could reach the scene
Of trouble in Tenth avenue the work of
blocking the belt road was completed .
The situation was becoming strained
when Capt. Killeliea and Inspector
Steers appeared OF the scene.
The inspector gave orders to clear
the streets, and the captain started in to
enforce it. He has reputation of being
a clubbing captain, and his actions this
afternoon show that he deserves it. Ten
minutes after he started in there was not
a whole striker within a radius Of half a
mile.
The strike a little later assumed an
alarming aspect. The first blood was
spilled with bullets. Strikers and police
fired upon each other. One striker was
wounded

The LING to the South.

San Francisco is again compelled to
recognize the influence of the Denver
Texas and Gulf railroad upon trans-co
tinental traffic, both freight and passen-
ger Some years ago, when the Atchi-
son system reached the Pacific coast the
Central Pacific eXacted the Mojaye con-
tract, n traffic agreement by which the
Santa Fe is permitted to use the track of
the Southern Pacific from the junction
at Mojave TO San Francisco.
That agreement was made with
the express understanding that all
through freight to and from Southern Pa
ciffc territory in the Southeastern states
going over the Santa Fe should be routed
by way Of La Junta, this state, which
meant that in consideration of the privi-
lege of using the Southern Pacific track
into San Francisco the Santa Fe would
keep out of Southern Pacific territory in
Louisiana, Alabama and other states in
their neighborhood, il being well known
that few shippers would desire to send
their freight by the rather roundabout
way of La Junta.
But the opening of the Denver, Texas
and Gulf brought new factor into the
problem. This forms a direct line in
Francisco to the very territory of the
Southern Pacific, which the Santa Fe,
under the La Junta arrangement, had
virtually bargained to keep out of. A
new traffic arrangement has been under
negotiation for months between the
Santa Fe and the Fort Worth line re-
garding the San Francisco business, but
the Southern Pacific becoming appraised
of the matter, began to make trouble,
declaring that the arrangement could not
legally be made under the Santa Fe S old
contract with its line. 1t was readily
seen by the Southern Pacific people, SAYS
the San Francisco Chronicle, that if COM
sumated the arrangement would give the
Sunset its strongest, and in fact, only
real competitor for through business,
both to and from San Francisco and New
Orleans, and also San Francisco and New
York.
General Agent J. s. Inglis of the Den
yer and Fort Worth line, who has just
established himself in san Francisco and
opened branch offices at Portland and
Los Angeles, received word Monday that
the contract had been made and signed
and he also received new freight rates
and divisions to apply on shipments from
San Francisco TO the Southeastern terri
tory, ana also TO the AtIauTIc seaDOard.
He has already secured some large ship
ments for this route, and they can now
be forwarded. ''W Working with the Santa
Fe's gulf line, said Agent Inglis, ''our
route touches every Important point on
the Texas and Pacific and Southern Pa
cifc lines in Texas. Yes, we are going
to make strong canvass for both freight
and passenger business out of this terri
tory
The Santa Fe people are much pleased
over the new arrangement, which greatly
strengthens them in traffic way
Southern Pacific officials admit the inn
portance of this new factor in the trans
continental field, but think it win be a
long time before it becomes strong enough
to make any great inroads on their
through traffic. 1t is, however, a good
point for Denver. indicating as it does

For Bandera.
We present our readers this week with
some interesting railroad news. Two
lines, whose objective point, from all we
have learned, is Mexico, are heading this
way Little or no mention, it must be
observed is made of Bandera, lying a
little off of a bee line, we mag be set on
one side and miss our opportunity. But
if there Is anything in name the Fort
Worth and Rio Grande is not going
to stop at Kerryille, and it can not
without surmounting con siderable en-
gineering difficulties miss Bardera
on its way to the Rio Grande. The
Eagle Pass Guide in all its comments as
sumes it as settled fact that this rail-
road is going to that point, and that be-
ing the case the cheapest construction is
by way of Bandera with natural passes on
each side of the extensive, beautiful and
fertile valley of the Medina, and the city
of Bandera situated midway on a direct
line between each of those passes, we can
give a railroad a cheap and short route
through the mountains that block the
way either more to the west or more to
the north.
The towns all along the proposed lines
are awe 10 the IuipOFtdHCe Oh FallHdy
connection and are meeting the roads
heartily. They are thus showing that
they are worthy of them. Bandera is
still apathetic and except a little private
talk no public action is being taken to
attract attention or to exhibit our COM
mercial worth as county. This should
not be. Active steps ought to be taken
at once and an interest shown in the rail-
roads that VIII impress their promoters
that we are worthy and can do much in
