Sending for the doctor is an incident
that comes to every household. II 1t
does not come one time it comes an
other. There are almost as many va
rieties of physicians as there are med
icines, and while DIR. A. may do we'll in
fevers, DR.. b. may altogether surpass
him in some other class of diseases.
That is a wise man who can pick the
cleverest doctor for his case; but greater
wisdom is shown by whoever is so
fortunate as to be prepared in the
hazardous hour Of affiiction by having
close at hand some reliable remedy
that can be depended upon.
Such remedy is Mansield's Magic
Arnica LinimenG, a generic pain de-
stroyer-one of the most valuable adj
ditions to the catalogue of healing
agencies known to modern times. 1t
is utterly unique, relieving instantan-
eously the suffering OF either man or
animal. No house should be without
it. 1t never fails. Send for bottle.

GOliad, Texas.

Your correspondent would not leave
Southwest Texas without visiting the
historic city of Goliad, the scene OF the
Fannin massacre. Along the line of
the railroad in Goliad county was
seen some of the finest farming
lands that your correspondent ever
saw.
On reaching the city he entered a
carriage and was soon driven to the
Fannin hotel and waslmet by the ge-
NAL host, Mr.. f. S. Jackson, who thor
oughly understood how to provide for
his guests. Mr.. Jackson is also pro.
prietOr of the Jackson House at Bee
Vile, two of the best hotels in Texas,
and is also of the firm of Tippen u
Jackson, real estate agents.
aoLIAD COUNTY.
Goliad county lies midway between
the two great deep water ports OF
Texas, and with her present railroad
facilities is destined to become one of
the most densely populated counties
in the state. The surface is rolling,
the soil is dark, sandy an,
with red clay subsoil, easily culti-
waited and remarkably fertile.
The altitude above the sea level is
nearly as great as that of Austin, and
sloping gradually toward the Gulf af-
fords perfect drainage to the whole
county. The San Antonio river me-
andering through the center Of the
county with the immense creeks
makes this one of the best watered
counties in Texas. Its banks are
skirted with pecan and cotton wood
and other trees, affording ample wood
for all necessary purposes. Water Of
excellent quality is obtainable at from
twenty to thirty feet.
This is one of the finest counties in
southwest Texas, and now that the
large land owners are cutting up their
ranches into small farms and welcom-
ing good farmers, Goliad will soon be
second to no county in the state in
population or wealth. Pumpkins,
melons, s0uashes, cucumbers, tomatoes
and everything in the vegetable line
grows here to perfection, Corn yields
from twenty five to seventy five
bushels to the acre; cotton from
| three.tourths to one and half bales
per acle. Goliad is on the same me-
ridian with Austin and is in the center
Of the rain belt, supplied by the gull
clouds, crops have never failed from
droughts in Goliad county. Before
visiting southwest Texas | was under
the inprr ssion that it was swampy
bu found this to he an erroneous idea
as have not seen swamp in the
whole CT the Southwest. The country
is generally open prairie gradually slo
ping toward the gulf.
Goliad county offers creates induce
ments to settlers than any other sec
ton on the American continent
Health, wealth, prosperity and cheaI
lands on easy terms is what they offer
From the general appearance of thu
people healthier county cannot b'
found. AS to climate, it equals thu
far-famed states Of Florida and Cali
fornia. With the strong Gul
breeze blowing from the Gul
across the praises causes
the days to be pleasant and the nights
delightful. This country. when it be
comes general known, will be overruI
with health seakers and parties look
ing for summer resorts. The banker
and merchants have ample capital anC
are willing to assist tine farmers in de
veloping the agricultural resources o
the county.

ATEKRIBLE EXPERIENCE.

Ex County Commissioner J. a. Nelson
was down in the territory last week with
other friends on a hunting expedition
West of Camp Supply while eagerly pur-
suing game be became separated from his
friends and when he gave up the chase of
the festive deer which he was after, be
found it impossible to find the camp of his
friends He searched in every direction
but in vain. and night overtaking him he
sought refuge in an old deserted camp
made by Sheridan way back before 40
when he was operating against Black
Kettle and his baud OF hostile savages
He stopped there all night and had q
dreadful experience of it for it seemed to
him that ali the wolves and csyotes in the
territory were clamorIng for has body
Thousands Of them apparently hocked
around him and laid siege to his little
garrison. They made night hedious with
their bowls aud cries and Mr.. Nelson
feared every moment that they would scale
the dirt embankment that surrounded
him and tear him limb by limb. The

THE REVIVAL CONTINUES.

Not only was Sunday great day in the
First NJ. E. church, there being large at
tendance at each service Notwithstanding
the inclement weather, a score of acces-
sons in the morning and more in the
evening, and many declaring their pur-
pose to turn from sin and serve God, but
last night was good night in the meet
ing.
At 7:45 the young people and people with
young hearts gathered in the lecture
room where Mr.. Shawhan led them in a
brief but telling Bible study on Trust
ing, 'after which testimonies of joyful
confidence in Christ came rapidly till the
sound OF music in the auditorium signii-
ed that the greater service was beginnin g
and all must 90 in and get seats.
The song service was more than usually
impressive, Mr. Shaver singing two
beautiful solos. Rev. ]. NJ Archer of
Valley Center and Rev. D. Mccormack
were present and the former offered the
opening prayer. Mr.. Shawhan's subject
was Eternity Where shall 1
spend it?" The sermon was SOL
men beyond description. At its close sew
eral Immediately indicated their desire to
settle that momentous question and the
altar service which followed was very ear
nest aud doubtless efficient After the
meeting was dismissed. in different parts
of the room were groups of persons sing
ing and praying with those who had not
gone to the altar but afterward concluded
they did not wish to depart without seek
ing Christ.
1t was announced that there would be a
Bible study at p N. today and services
this evening as usual since the meeting
began. Mr. Shawhan's subject tonight is
"The objectionable Sin."
