A Terrell Man has Paten. that is Regarded
as solution of the Vexed Question.
Special TO the Gazette.
TERRELL, TEX, June lot is be-
Iieved that Mr.. Glass, a citizen of Ter
rell and an old railroader, has solved the
road problem by paten just gotten out
by him. 1t is at least q solution so far as
seen now. 1t is simple in design and
construction and can. ali be put up
wherever there Is a foundry, making it
q home institution. The patent is called
by patent office men the "Railroad for
Wagons, - and is as follows: Through
exceeding bad road, say bottoms and
marshes grade say twenty feet is first
made. On this grade is placed cross
ways every four feet, wooden ties six
feet long. On these ties are laid and
fastened four feet ten inches apart two
fiat iron rails four inches wide, of suffc-
lent thickness to hold up the heaviest
loaded wagon. These rails have flange
on the inside two inches high TO keep the
wheels on the track. The space between
the rails is planked, sanded or graveled,
as the necessity of the case may
require. The approach to the track
Is guarded by inside flanges
that curve inward to guide
the wheels to the track. Thus equipped
this kind of road affords easy and sure
travel in any season of the year and in
any kind of weather, besides furnishing
a road of several years duration, the
grade being the only thing liable to get
out of repair. This road complete in all
its parts can DE built for 81 per running
foot, and in some places for less, making
It the cheapest thing on foot, as well as
the safest and best. In order to show its
practical workings MIR. Glass has put
down 400 feet of track on the bad road
Just before reaching the asylum, where !
wagons pass over it every hour in the |
day and is seen and examined by MANY |
visitors. This sample road is only half a |
mile from the depot where the track is of |
considerable length. Switches may be |
put in for passing wagons.
:. This patent road is attracting consider
seae atsentlon aud many of our cItizens

DEFENDED HER NAME.
A Michigan Woman Gives Her
Traducer Beating.

Colon. Mich, Oct. 15.-For some time
the crowd of male gossipers that infests
the town has dealt in anything but a
kindly manner with the reputation of
several women, more especially Mrs.
Ida Adams. The leader of the party was
Fremont Hinkle, great. Strapping fell
low. Mrs. Adams heard of the manner
in which her name had been used. and
borrowing a horsewhip from Free
mOnt'S brother, she met the traducer on
the street last night and thrashed him
until he yelled for mercy. When she
stopped, and she did not stop until she
was tired out, she said that If anybody
else wanted to say anything about her
they could go right on, but the next
one she heard of doing so. she would
give worse than she did Hinkle. Pub
lie sentiment is entirely with the lady.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 15.- Armed with a
horsewhip, Annie Bias and Sophia
Basse, two shop girls. made short work
of Louis Animas to-day. The man works
in the same store with the girls, and, it
is said. circulated stories defamatory to
their character. This morning they
waylaid Animas. The attack was so
sudden and the punishment so effective
that he turned and ran, the two girls
following him for blocks slashing him
repeatedly with their whips over the
head. on the face and wherever they
could get in blow. He finally escaped
down an alley. Many pedestrians saw

HOW THE TARIFF WORKS.
Michigan Republicans Getting a
Disagreeable Sample.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Oct. 15.-The
business circular issued to the hardware
trade by Foster. Stevens & Co. some
time ago, explaining why prices on
hardware, tinware. cutlery, saws, axes,
ammunition and other articles handled
by hardware dealers were advancing,
is giving the Republicans in Michigan
an immense amount of trouble. That
letter has been the principal topic dis
cussed by the congressional candidate
on the Republican ticket in this
district. and in vain is he endeavoring
to counteract its effect upon
the voters. Corl, Knott & Co., whole
sale and retail dealers in millinery and
dry goods, one of the largest bOuSeS of
the kind in western Michigan, is giving
the Republicans still further trouble by
issuing circular telling why certain
articles they carry are more expensive
now than they we're few weeks ago.
Hannah, Lay q Co.. the largest and
most important mercantile house north
of this city. doing business at Traverse
City, advertise in the local papers that
tariff the prices of carpets will
have to be advanced, and possibly
other articles will be affected. Perry
Hannah, the head and founder of the
house, is a Republican of the strongest
convictions, has several times been
mentioned as gubernaiorial candidate,
and once gained considerable promi-
nence as senatorial possibility. The
Republicans are taking novel means
of counteracting these practical demon
strations of the evils of the tariff, or
rather of intimidating the merchants
into keeping silent upon that topic
until after election. The local organ of
the Republican party advises all good
followers of the faith to boycott
the merchants who issue price
raising circulars or letters of any kind
announcing an advance in prices. In
this the organ is supported and indorsed
by the local party managers, who guar
antee the paper against any loss of adj
vertising. These circulars are declared
reasonable and intended to deceive,
and those who issue them are roundly
denounced as enemies of the country
and of the working men. All Repuhli-
can voters are warned against having
anything to do with the firms who adj
vance prices because of higher tariff on
the goods they handle. The boycott
will last until after election. /.

oHIo's POLITICAL SCANDAL.
Legislators Decide Upon a Plan
For Settling 1t.

COLUMBUS, o., Oct. 15.-In a Joint
caucus of the Democratic members of
both houses this afternoon, plan of
action was agreed upon, which will
effectually dispose of the Cincinnati
board of public improvements affair. Ne
business of Importance was transacted
by either house during the day, save
the Introduction in the house of one.
and in the senate of two resolutions to
abolish the Cincinnati boards. These
resolutions. however, and the effort to
Introduce few local bills, only served
to kill time until the Democrats could
reach some agreement in caucus. When
the house met in the afternoon it at
once adjourned until tomorrow morning
and the senate followed suit soon after.
The plan agreed upon in the Democratic
joint caucus is to give the governor
power of removing the Cincinnati board
and appoint successors, who shall serve
until next April. when all members will
be chosen by popular vote. A spe-
cial committee will be appointed
to investigate the charges against
Remelin and report at the
January adjourned session. This plan
was adopted by unanimous vote in the
caucus, the four recalcltrant Democratic
senators having finally been brought
into line. A measure embodying these
provisions will at once be pushed
through. Unless some of the Demo-
Gratis again break ranks, which is not at
all proDable, this settles for the present
OhiO'S great political scandal.

CENTER CITY. Oct. 15.--One of the
most enthusiastic political meetings ever
held in Chisago county assembled here
last evening. The court house was
packed, and the attention paid the emf
nent criminal lawyer was something
wonderful. Mr.. Erwin spoke two hours.
Every sentence he uttered was as clear,
concise and logical as an axiom. The
audience walked up to the front after
the meeting and evinced by their hearty
handshakings the harmony of sentiment
which was the governing spirit of the
meeting. I. c. Hodgson. after the
speaking. reversed the order of political
meetings and appealed to the people for
a collection, and in response the hat
was passed around and generous sum
of money was contributed to help the
cause along. The farmers are in
earnest; they mean business all along
the line. and next November the votes
will show their increasing power.

White Toilets

Among the innumerable white toilets
worn upon recent dress occasion was
an imported one of India silk ard crepe
de Chine in combination the two beau
tiful elinging textiles forming an ideal
Greek gown most becoming to its wear
er. There were tiny flecks of silver in
the crepe de Chine, and the sleeves and
bodice drapery, on the left side beyond
the soft Grecian folds, were of Hou-
iton lace. The draperies Oh the silk
skirt were in the height of French art,
caught up on the left by a chateaine
of Norwegian silver. which was fast
ened just below the waist by small
oval Greek clasp set with pearls and
diamonds The sandals and gloves
worn with the dress were of palest sill
yer-gray undressed kid, the gloves
stitched with white silk, the sandals
fastened with oval silver buckles.
