Hill to tho Front.

Senator Voorhees,, who is well recognized
as one of the leaders of the Democracy,
when questioned as to David Hill said:
"All have to say is that the people who
imagine that David B. Hill will be lost
sight OF in the senate are going to be terri
bly, mistaken. l am not given to making
exaggerated statements, and l have had
sufficient experience, think, to Judge men
with some degree of accuracy. Governor
Hill is very big man. He has the ability TO
take his place in the front rank of the senate
the first day ne takes his seat as member
of that body. In my judgment he is the
most accomplished statesman this country
has produced in forty years.

Needs Investigating,

1t is believed that when congress meets a
resolution will be introduced and passed to
investigate the comptroller of the currency
as to his action, or rather his nou-action or
bad action, in regard TO the Keystone and
Maverick banks. There come whispers out
of the comptroller's office that such action
has occurred in many other banks; in other
words, that the comptroller's Office does not
control so far as the national banks are con-
cerned. 1t is very evident that this is true
in the case of the Keystone bank and the
Maverick bank, and it will not be at all out
of the way for the congress of the United
States to examine into the matter.

They are regularly organized, with full

FRIZZELL MUST HANG.
Governor Hogg Informs the Doomed
Man His Reason for Asking q Res

Special to the Gazette.

ABILENE, TAYLOR COUNTY, TEX, Nov.
15.-Sheriff ]. V. Cunningham last night
received a letter addressed to District
Judge L. NJ. Conner at Eastland, from
Governor Hogg, instructing him to inform
Frizzell, the man now under sentence Of
death here for wife murder, that his petit
ton for respite of thirty days could not
be granted, and that he would in no way
interfere. He will therefore hang on next
Friday. The governor stated in his letter
that the reason Frizzel asked for respite
was that he might have time to finish a
book which he is at present engaged in
writing, giving a complete history Of his
life. The governor stated that he did not
deem this sufficient reason for granting
the petition, as books of that character
always did more harm than good. Frizzeu
has sold his body to a local undertaking es-

ARDMoRE, l. T., Nov. 15.-The following
memorial to. the next congress, praying for
complete criminal Jurisdiction for the
United States courts in the Indian Terri
tory has been drafted by part of the legal
fraternity IN this city and others, and is
now being circulated at every postoffice in
the five civilized tribes for signers between

A writer, evidently of practical turn
of mind, tells how easily the wakeful
dyspeptic can be made to slip off into
the land of dreams He says;
The dyspeptic of course eats light
supper, may resort to the use of a
towel, wet with tepid water, and Gov
cred with dry cloth, the whole then
applied to the pit of the stomach. Be
fore the sufferer knows it she will float
into shadow land, such is the sympathy
between the organs of digestion and the
brain. Owing to the position of the
stomach, light sleeper ought to sleep
on the right side instead of the left,
never on the back.
If there is n tendency to cold feet,
a thin wooden blanket may line the
lower third of the bed. The limbs
ought not to be greatly tlexed, a posi-
ton which prevents free circulation,
and they should rest one upon the other
lightly. The night light, where used,
ought to be tiny taper, and not gas
or kerosene, both of which devitalize
the air.
A darkened room is the best. Ma
ture puts out her light and draws the
curtain of darkness for a purpose.
With good habits, physical and mental,
and determination not to deal with
anodynes, sleep may be won from its
shyest lair to watch over the restless
pillow

The horses used in Homer's time
were war horses. The warriors were
drawn in chariots. The art of riding
was known, but it is alluded to as
something unusual Ulysses at the
time of his shipwreck "bestrode a
plank, like horseman on big steed. "
There are reasons for believing that
the practice of riding was much later
than that of driving, and the myth of
the Centaur, where, according to
Shakespeare, man is incorpsed and
demirmtured with the beast" probably
originated at an early period, when the
appearance of a man on horseback was
novel sight. Chicago Herald.

A Touching Dit Of Mutual Courtesy Be

A Touching Dit Of Mutual Courtesy Be
tween Helpless Women.
An incident occurred on a west bound
Madison cable car the other day which
made even the grizzled old conductor
look with pride and respect at a sweet
faced. gray eyed little woman and with
contempt on a number Of well dressed,
well to do human swine who occupied
about half of his car.
At the corner Of Throop street a
young woman carrying in her arms
baby Of about two years, very large
and heavy for its age, hailed the car.
When, after some difficulty, she sue
ceeded in boarding the car. it was no
ticed that she was hardly equal to the
task OF much longer holding in her
arms her heavy burden. Every seat
was occupied, however and she was
Obliged to remain standing in the aisle,
where she staggered at every lurch Of
the car Several times her big baby
was almost thrown from her arms.
Her mute appeal for seat that she
might rest her arms of their precious
freirht was unanswered until the little
cray eyed woman looked up from a
book she was perusing. Instantly she
arose from her seat and tenderly bade
tlle young mother to take her place.
II was then noticed for the first time
that the little woman was crippled and
that she stood rather awkwardly in the
aisle. at times compelled to hold to the
seat railing to prevent being thrown to
the flooring of the car.
This was noticed by the young moth
err and without a word she got up,
gently pushed the little woman into the
seat, and then with a sweet, You
won't mind, will youp placed her
pretty baby in the lap of the little wom-
an With a look of scorn and pity
comningled the young mother glanced
Mt tile big beasts who lolled in their
seats, and then turning to her baby
and its guardian she looked as indie
pendent and as happy as a queen.
Meantime the little woman and her
protege we're getting well acquntnted,
and when she signaled the conductor
to stop, that she might leave the car,
tile baby wore very pretty gold neck
chain which had not been there be-
fore AS she got up to depart the gray
eyes of the little woman grew cold, and
there seemed to be dangerous glitter
In them She was determined that the
young mother should have her seat,
which she succeeded in securing for
her On leaving she handed the baby
a card, which when read by the mother
acquainted her with the fact that the
crippled little woman was the maiden
sister of one of the best known judges
now sitting on the circuit bench in
Cook county.
But the swine-they simply curled
their legs into more comfortable posi-
tions and talked louder than ever

One very great mistake which people
make is not using enough light. There
is popular delusion that good,
bright light hurts the eyes. A good,
strong, bright light is almost always
the proper thing. Even in cases of
weak, sore or inilamed eyes II is better
60 have plenty of light, The eyes should
at such times have as much light as
can possibly be borne, and the cure
will go on all the more rapidly.
But for the eyes that are not sore or
milamed the way to keep them well
and to increase their strength is to give
them all the light possible, The brighter
the light the more the eye viii be de
yeloped and strengthened. Weak
nesses and disabilities of the eyes from
overuse are often seen, but good,
bright, strong light does not usually do
any harm. II tends TO do good, create
health and give strength. - London

At one time Mr.. Weems was engaged

occurred during this time shows that he
had good deal of human nature, and
despite his cloth, exhibited occasionally
something of the old Adam. 1t seems
that one Of his customers, to whom he
had sold a Bible, demanded a receipt
for the money paid for the copy OF
holy writ. Mr. Weelns construed this
demand as an insult He gave the re-
