A Hard Corner.

The age of 80 is hard corner for
woman to turn, and So is still harder.
She feels that che is fast leaving her
youth behind her. But there is no rea-
son why woman should be faded and
passe at 30, or even 40. The chief cause
of the early fading of American women
is found in the fact that many of them
suffer from some form of female weak
ness or disease-tha robs the face of its
bloom, draws dark circles about the
eyes, brings early wrinkles and sallow-
ness, and stamps the face and figure
with signs of -ill-health. DR.. Prices Fa-

Az OLD. OLD STORY.

THE GAZETTE published some
lengthy and high-sounding resolutions
the other day purporting to express
the sentiments of an entire county and
demanding that its representatives,
should support Mr.. Mills for senator.
1t is now learned that there were six
people present at the ''mass-meeting,
which was held in the back room of
store and was star chamber proceed
ing of the most approved type.
This is one Of Warwick's old tricks,
and it has been worked SO often in
Texas that it discredits the originality
of the Waco manager for it to be re-
peated in the clumsy fashion that now
attends its reproduction.
1t is stretching the patience of Dem
ocrats at large for half-dozen or a
dozen Democrats to come together in
town on what on its face appears to be
one or two days notice to voice the
wishes of two or three thousand Demo-
cratic voters. Such expressions are
worth about as much as the resolutions
of common councils, with which the
campaign was opened. Ten men count
up ten men and all that can be made
out of them by any sort of hocus pocus
is ten men. If Mr.. Clark desires it he
can have a mass-meeting to commit
every county in the state to Mr.. Mills
in this way, for the latter has, I'M
doubtedly, enough supporters every
where to arrange such a meeting.
All the reports which have been
made taken at their par value would
give an expression for Mr.. Mills by less
than one thousand people. That is
liberal addition OF the figures given by
the organs.
There are nearly three hundred
thousand Democratic voters in the
state and it is probable the rest of them
will have something to say about the
making of a senator. If he had in
tended to make his demonstration eff
fective Warwick, should have thrown a
little more virility into it.

MRS. DAVIS, sWINnLER.

A committee representing the Ster-
ling Price camp of Confederate veter-
ans, addressed some days ago a circu-
lar to their brethren and 'other Con-
federates" of Texas and Arkansas, re-
citing the base and contemplate trick
cry by means of which the Bedford
publishing company defrauded Mrs.
jefferson Davis out of the entire pro-
ceeds from the sale of her husbands
autobiography, and requesting them to
purchase none of said books until Mrs.
Davis shall be allowed her proper share
of the proceeds. In other words, the
friends of Mrs. Davis are asked to boy
colt the book. If there be any virtue
in that style of retributive justice, the
boycott should be run against the Bel
ford house and all it produces. But the
boycott is not in favor with the public.
Whera a palpable wrong is done, as in
this case, the courts can be relied on
to correct it and if the case against
the Belford publishing company be as
stated, it is quite probable that full
PREPARATION will be ordered by the
courts.
The contract for publishing the book
was, it seems, procured by means of
open and palpable fraud. The Bedford
house was insolvent, and when reliable
Endorsement for n faithful perform-
anee of its contract was demanded, Sc
curly was given in the sum OF SO, 900,
with one Mr. Lange Us indorser. Sub
sequently, it developed that Mr.. LANCE
was himself ali there was Of the Belford
publishing company, and that in sign
ing the guarantee OF $40. he simply
became his own indorser. He refuses,
accordingly, to comply with the orig
inal contract, or to give Mrs. DAVIS one
cent Of the money received by him from

THIS is the extremity of the rancor
of the be-whiskered crank who vainly
imagines that he has been empowered
to dictate the policy of Western Demo-
Gratis, through the columns of the St.
Louis Republic:
The Cleveland men, without disloyalty to
the Democratic party, will defeat Hill if
nominated.
As the Republic succeeded in letting
daylight through the Democratic con-
gressional delegation in Missouri, it is
something OF an authority when it
comes to the ways and means of defeat
ing Democratic nominees, if on no
other subject.

SAN ANTONIO. Tex, Feb. 5.-The re-

lewesk, the Russian nihiEst, who asSas-
sinated Gen. Michael DeSilverstoff, chief
of the Russian secret police force in Paris,
France. on November IS, 1890, were eX-
humed here to-day. There is vers deep
mystery surrounding this action. The dis
interment was made 1t the instigation OF
Joseph Z. Wilson, prominent attorney of
Galveston, who arrived here this morning.
Mr.. Wilson, Immediately upon reaching
this city, proceeded TO the office of the city
physician and made known to the latter the
object of his visit
The two proceeded TO the potter's field
The grave OF Houser was new, and was
easily located. The sexton soon had the
dirt removed from the rough, wooden box
that contained the body of the supposed
suicide. The lid was pried open. and the
three men gathered close to the casket to
obtain a look. The features of the man, TO
use the expression of the sexton, showed
that 1.-The flesh was badly run together. y
The features were fairly well preserved.
Attorney Wilson drew printed slip from
his pocket giving various marks of Identity
He made the comparison carefully, putting
down in writing the results. He then stated
that his investigation was ended, and that
he was positive that the body was that of
Padlewesli.
When asked this afternoon as to the OBJ
ject of his visit here and of the disinter-
meut of Houser's remains, MIR. Wilson
evaded giving an answer, but finally stated.
after the question had been repeatedly put
to him, that Padleweslli was heir TO vast
estate in Poland, and that he had been in
structed by the relatives TO have the remains
disinterred and establish their identity.
The body was again placed in the potter's
grave. but will, it is understood, be re-

The bullet hole in the head was examined
and found to have been produced by 4

GRAREB, Mo. Feb. Capt C. C. Allen,
an old and respected citizen of this county,
came into town to-day, and, entering the
principal barber shop astounded the pro-
prietor by ordering him to shave his luxu-
RANT white beard and flowing locks.
As the captain is an old man of sixty-five
years, the barber refused to comply with his
strange request until it had been repeated.
The tonsorial operation completed, the trans
formed old gentleman pulled an oiled silk
cap over his shaved pate and walked away.
1t was thought at first that the old gen.
tleman was demented, but investigation de-
veloped the fact that Capt. Allen is paying

The time the bet was made he WASH res

love with the fair Mary, and it was fight
ing finish with the chances even as to
which would win.
When the contest was at its height, and
hot blood had superseded former friendship
between the men, Allen submitted a propo-
sition to his rival which was takingly
unique. He proposed that they should call
upon the lady and let her decide between
them. The happy man was to have undis-
puted possession of the field while the loser
was to leave the country, and in addition
was to shave his hair and beard whenever
called upon by the winner. The test was
made and Arnold won the girl. Young Allen

THE GAZETTE earnestly supported
Mr.. Mills tariff bill because it believed
it was the best compromise the East
would accept. As the compromise was
refused. the party majority in congress
has decided to fight for an extended
free list on blankets, wooden goods and
other things of prime necessity and
every day use. We magnanimously
offered to give I'D our raw material
protection for a reasonable deduction
in protection on manufactured goods.
The offer was spurned; now the barons,
under the policy adopted by the Demo-
cratic majority, will be forced to go
before the country to plead for highly
protected blankets, cotton and wooden
goods, cotton ties and binding Irvine,
all used and paid for by the farmers.

WHY THEY HAZE HI,r

Not the least OF the causes which
have brought David Bennett Hill so
conspicuously to the front has been the
malignant enmity with which he has
been pursued by the tongue OF Repub-
lican and mugwump SANDER. From the
day that he uttered that terse and sig
nifcant sentence. +" am Democrat,
he became the target for all the shafts of
hate of pure and undefled Democracy.
This hatred Of him eliminated in the
late New York campaign in such tor
rent of abuse as never before disgraced
the history of American politics. Will
fcation sought new invective, and
SANDER went its full length to cast
odium on him.
The result should have taught a les
son to the troop of slanderers, which
numbers a few choice members even in
Texas. The people of New York rose
up in their wrath and rebuked them
with an emphasis which had never
been given to the result OF a contested
election in New York since war politics
passed away.
The Democratic majority of 10000
given in New York last November is
the peoples reply to the lies of Repub-
lican and .mugwump malice. Those
who repeat in Texas the lies which
have thus been discredited where they
were born show capacity for employ
ment of that sort that does not deserve
to waste away in the barren field OF
Texas politics. They deserve profita-
BILE jobs at the hands of their New York
allies.
Some of these same slanderers were
the authors of the foul scandal with
which it was sought to destroy Mr..
Cleveland's reputation and his party's
chances in 1884. The country gave a
fitting reply to them.
Mr.. Cleveland's life was admittedly
not without cause for reproach. IT
was the introduction of one incident of
it, not signifying dishonesty, into a ma
tional campaign which the public mind
resented.
In vain has the scrutinizing eye OF
enmity traversed the career of Mr.. Hill
in search OF flaw or blot. Public and
private, it is unimpeachable. 1t is adj
mitted, reluctantly, that his conduct is
beyond criticism, that his life is pure,
that he is free of the faults and vices
which scarify the lives of most men.
No faint Of dishonor is upon him. Not
a word has been uttered against him
as man. SANDER stops right there.
It is helpless.
The full charge against Mr.. Hill,
when all is uttered, is that he is a
tricky politician, who has won advan-
tages for his party by unfair methods.
The real ground of objection to
him is that in him the Republicans and
mugwumps perceive the genius for or
ganization and for winning victories
which was so marked a trait in Tilden,
and which is shared in equal degree by
no other man of either party.
Republicans and mugwumps have
the best of reasons for their burning
hate of Hill-they fear him.
Fort Worth gazette. [volume] (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1891-1898, 1892-02-06

EbLERY ANDERSON, the chairman
ofthe Murray Hill mugwump movement
against Senator Hill, says in explana-
ton OF it:
''There are many considerations which
render it uncertain whether he can carry
the state of New York. These relate to
his position on the silver question, etc.
So the mugwump cue is to damn
Hill with the silk-stocking elemdnt of
Murray Hill by telling them he is for
silver, and to damn him in TEXAS by
declaring that he is against silver.
Mugwumpery, there you have the
very essence of it.
