Protect the System From Malaria.

vi il possible to do this even in regions of
country where miasma is most rife, and where
the periodic fevers which it causes assume
popularity of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is
very largely attributable to the fact of its eff
cacy as remedy for chills and fever, bilious
forms of malarial disease In those portions
of the west and south where complaints of
this nature prevail and in the tropics, it is par
which it exerts; and it has been very widely
adopted as substitute for the dangerous and
comparatively ineffective alkalold, sulphate OF
quinine. Physicians have not been among the
last to concede its merits, and the emphatic
professional Endorsements which it has received
have added to the reputation it has obtained at
home and abroad.

LOCAL MATTERS.
Meeting of the Board Of
Public Works.
Recommendations to Be Acted
Upon Monday.
Several Improvements of the Streets
Contemplated.
The Clerks Want Half of Saturday for a
Holiday-Other Items of More than
Ordinary Interest.

The board of public works met yester
day morning and decided to make the
following recommendations to the city
council:
That the bid of F. n Townsend fol
grading Sixth street, from Lucas avenue
to Wilmer street, at $40 per ineal
foot, be accepted, and that the city
clerk be instructed to publish the reso-
luton of award.
That on the petition of William Wick
cry ct al. asking that action in regard to
the matter of laying walks on Main
street, between Marchessault and Wal
ters streets, be postponed for six months,
the street superintendent be requested
to postpone action until September 1st,
1890.
That the petition of G. Laux to place
q hitching post in front of his store, SOL
S. Broadway, with a mortar on top for
sign, be granted, and the work be placed
under the direction of the street super
intendent.
That the petition of John M. Menefee
ct al, asking that six-foot cement walks
street, between Grand avenue and
TlSucIOd SIIccI, Uc SidhIcu, all uAae 1iiS
city engineer be instructed to present
ordinance of intention, excepting such
portion as is already constructed to the
established grade and the satisfaction of
the street superintendent.
That the petition of Mrs. j. +. Burns
ct al, asking that the grade of Hill
street, from Sixteenth to Washington,
be altered sufficiently to carry off sur
Go hn
referred to the city attorney to report
upon the question as to whether Hill
street is public street through the
Prayer tract, from Sixteenth to Wash
ington.
That the petition of VIM. McLain
ct al, asking to have grade changed on
the west side of Hope street, between
Fifth and Sixth streets, be referred to
the city engineer for investigation and
report.
That the petition from H. w. Patton,
secretary of the chamber of commerce,
calling attention to needed repairs on
Main street between First and Third
streets be filed, as the matter has been
attended to.
In the matter OF the grading of Bart
lett street, the board states: That the
total frontage from Philadelphia street
to Beaudry avenue is 1876 feet; the
protest presented claims to represent
2,O51 feet; we find, however, on investi-
CATION that 47O feet of this amount was
represented on the original petition to
grade, which under the law are not
allowed to sign the protest against the
same work. In addition to this 6O3 feet
of the protest have been with
drawn. This would leave only 97S feet
legal frontage on protest, not deducting
any names signed by agents without
proper authority attached.
In regard to ordinance referred to the
board to change the grade Of Teed street
from Bellevue avenue to Walters street,
recommend that the same be withheld
until the property owners along said
street agree upon a suitable grade, as il
is matter of purely local interest and
does not effect the public at large.
Recommended that thirty days exten
sion of time be granted to Frank Chino
worth for the completion of his contrac
to grade Scarf street.

Cotton prospects in Hunt county are
fine. In some fields the corn is fine and
in others short. A good deal of hay and
miliet is being harvested.
A big crop is looming up in Wharton

vorable it Will be realized.
The late cotton on the low flats and
cotton lands is damaged by the boil
worm.
Cotton picking is the order of the day
IN Bell county. The crops look well 4,
and an extensive yield of the white sta
pie is predicted.
The Springtown NewsdeaIer takes its
satisfaction thus: Although the cotton
crop will be somewhat diminished for
lack of rain, if we had had abundance
the worms might probably have done
more damage than the drouth.
The corn croD in Gillespie county will
reach an average. The cotton crop is
cut off 40 per cent. from the prospect
of month ago.
Corn made good crop in Hale county
and the farmers are satisfied.
Crops around Mesquite have been bene-
fitted by the recent rains and he pros
TO forty bushels to the acre, and a great
deal of the cotton will Weld bale 10 the
acre.
Although July and August have been
dry, the crops in Crosby and surround
ing counties are very good.
IREDELL, Aug. lS.--A fine rain fell
here yesterday, followed by 4 delightful
shower of twenty-five minutes duration.
1t is thought that cotton will be greatly
benefited.

An Italian Cable Railroad.

a steep cable railroad has lately been
built up the slopes of Monte San Saliva
tore, near the Lake of Lugano. The
power for working is obtained from a
stream in the vicinity, and is transmit
ted electrically to the operating station
half way up at Pazzallo. The water is
led through a long iron pipe to two
Girard turbines. To each turbine there
is coupled direct an Oerlikon dynamo.
One dynamo is q continL Jus current ma
chine, and is employed to transmit the
power required for the railroad, and the
other is an alternator, which serves for
the supply of current for lighting the
town of Lugauo and the stations of the
cable railroad. The railroad line starts
little above the level of the Lake OF
LuRano, aud passes through PaZzallo 70
the summit of the mountain, the graz
dent varying from II per cent. to 60 per
cent. The total length is a little over q
mile. The electric current on arriving
at Pazzallo Is converted into ordinary
tractive power and moves the endless
cable.

General and Local News.

The rate war which has been waging
for several weeks between Texas rail-
roads and the steamship lines is it is said :,
about over, but still the traffic men are
in Chicago wrestling with the problem
Of a restoration of rates. No matter
how the differences are settled, no mat
ter how calm and peaceful the surface of
things may look, it can be relied on tina
no peace has been secured, but only q
truce which will before many weeks be
broken by some road making secret cuts
in rates which will cause open hostilities
10 be resumed. This thing is going to be
kept up as long as railroads are run as
They are to-day and it is certain the pub
lie is the only sufferer by them. The roads
cauuOt afford to do business al the pres
eut rate of freight from New York
20 Texas points, and the loss
that is now being sustained by them on
account OF this rate war will, when the
truce has been patched up, be made up
by the commercial world and given back
10 the roads in the way OF increased tar
in on one class or another OF merchan-
disc. Rate wars are expensive luxuries,
but the railroad companies do not pro-
pose to foot the bills. That is the part
assigned the public IN the programme,
and the public will do its do as usual.
The sooner rate wars come TO an end for
all time the better it will be for the ship

BLEACHING FOR LLANo.

Three Roads said to be Figuring on Build
ing to that Point.
1t begins to look as if there would be
considerable railroad building in the
country southwest from Fort Worth be-
fore the year is over, and the belief pre-
walls that the Fort Worth and Rio Grande
viii play an important part in it. The
mineral in Mason, Llano and other coun-
Ties in that section of the state has long
been inviting railroads TO develop it and
railroads have at last consented to take
some interest in that part of the state.
The Austin aud Northwestern road since
il changed hands is taking steps prepar-
Etory 10 extending from Burnet to Llano
The Fort Worth and Rio Grande has been
hsuring and running lines in that SEQ
lion for some time, and 1t is said that
another road also oontemplates building
into this rich section of the state.
With three roads all aiming for one
point and all building at one time as it
now looks VIII be the case, there will be
lively times in the country when the
work is going on. There is no doubt that
strong influences are being brought to
bear 10 induce the roads referred TO to
build TO Llano, and the chances are that
lie little city will in the near future be
an important railroad point, and become
city of considerable Importance.
