The Re-UniOn.

Next Tuesday, the 21st of April,
the Texas Veterans Association will
hold their 18th reunion in this city,
and celebrate in a betting manner
the 55th anniversary of the battle
of San Jacinto,- at which the 7S3
Texans whipped between 1,60G and
1900 Mexicans in one hour settling
the question of Texas independence
forever. Elaborate preparations for
the entertainment have been made
and everything is IN readiness for
thei~ reception. The unbouuded
hospitality of the city will BIZ ex-
tended the veterans, the youngest
Of whose head is silvered with the
chilling blasts of more than seventy
winters, and they will be cared
for as tenderly as the peo-
pie, of the parent county the
cradle of the Republic, which they
gave independence, know how, and
they have been taught to revere
these heroes.
The people from all over the coun-
try will gather with US on that day,
and in a grand basket picnic cele-
brate the event.
There will be a grand parade, not
in which these feeble heroes VII be
expected to participate. but for their
review, by the military, fire depart
ment, secret organizations and
schools, and many unique little sur
prises viii be arranged for the'r
pleasure.
1t will perhaps be the grandest
affair of the kind ever held In the
State.

Deafness Can't be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that Is by con-
stitutional remedies, Deafness Is
caused by an infamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustach-
ian Tube. When this tube gets In
famed you have q rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it
is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the infiamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an
inf1amed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give one hundred dol
lars for any case of deafness (caus-
ed by catarrh) that we cannot cure
by taking Halls Catarrh Cure.

One can cut glass with scissors
as easily as though it were an au-
tumn leaf. The entire secret con-
sists in plunging the pane of glass
into a tub of water, submerging also
the hands and the scissors. The
SCISSORS will cut in straight lines
without a flaw. This result is
achieved in consequence of the alb
sence Of vibration. If the least por,
ton of the scissors is left out of the
water the vibration will prevent the
glass cutting.

WASHINGTON society is all broken
up because of the discovery that it
has been entertaining a woman who
is employed as a domestic in the
White House. 1t is truly awful. 1t
came about this way. Mrs. Harrison,
with a thrifty instinct, born of rural
districts, on her advent as the first
lady of the land installed her sister,
Mrs. Dimmick, as housekeeper. This
was a family secret, and Mrs. D.
was received everywhere as guest of
the Presidents family. The 800 a
month salary was regularly drawn,
yet the housekeeper found time for
all demands of society.

but one, in the world, where iron
water pipes are made direct from the
furnace without re-smelting; thus
saving from SO to 81 per ton for re-

this saves $50 to 5000 per day.
