PRODUCTION to the people Of McLennan

CONGRESS
At Last Takes Action.

A bill has been introduced at
v ashington requiring all baking
powders containing alum and ammonia
to be so labeled. This is a step in the
right direction, and has been long
foreshadowed by the action of state
legislatures, boards OF health, food
commissioners, etc, in this matter.
The bill affords needed protection 30
the public, for the evidence as to the
injurious effects of alum and ammonia
is very heavy; but it will nevertheless
be fought bitterly by the manufactur.
ers whom it affects, who are accus.
toned to sell their goods as "pure
Cream Of Tartar" absolutely pure, +"
etc.
The bill is something needed. If a
maker uses drug in his powder, the
name Of which he does not want to
have printed on his label, it is prima
facia evidence that there is something
wrong. We hope the subject will be
vigorously prosecuted all over the
country, not only as regards baking
powder, but also all other food adul-
tecations.
This bill may incidentally benefit
the makers of pure articles, but if it
should, this is only an additional point
in its favor

NOT GRANOFATHER'S.
A Wonderful Clock That VIII BE at the
Worlds Fair.

New YORK, March 23.-Charles l..
Hurlbut, an artist, living at 343
Pleasant avenue, has just completed a
clock which has cost him much labor,
extending over sixteen years, The clock
is composed of "a, 900 separate pieces Of
wood, gathered from all parts of the
globe, and contains 326 different varie-
ties. The clock is feet inch high, and
1t is wonderful piece of workmanship
There is no paint or stain used to give it
coloring, the many different pieces of
wood being arranged in such manner
as to form most picturesque shading
Mr. Hurlbut purchased IN 1875 a scroll
saw, and in September of that year he
read description of cane made of
seventeen different kinds of wood, and
acting on the suggestion he concluded to
build clock out of forty different
pieces of wood. Seafaring men, among
whom he had an extensive acquaintance,
were requested to bring rare bits of
wood from the foreign ports where their
vessels were bound. Mr.. Hurlbut's
wood-gatherers in very short time
ciOdSho nm llldh1 val VI WOOu,
and he concluded to increase his original
limit of forty pieces to the present mum
Der. Some of the wood came from the
heart of Africa; varieties were obtained
from Australia, others from the West
Indies, East Indies, Hindostan, China
California, South America and Mexico
The layers of wood in some of the bor-
ders is so fine that it is necessary to use a
magnifying glass in order to discern
them. A figure on the right of the clock
represents Satan, and another on the left
Father Time. As the clock strikes,
every quarter of an hour. these two fig
ures descend from their respective win
dows to an apartment III the lower part
of the clock. The door opens, and
Father Time is seen standing behind the
bell with an uplifted hammer. Deatl.
in the form of skeleton stands at HE
right. Presently Father Time raises his
hammer. Death suddenly disappears
and Satan appears through trap door
in the floor. AS Father Time strikes at
Satan Death appears, the door closes and
the figures assume their original posi-
ton. Every part of this clock, includ-
ing the works, has been constructed by
Mr.. Hurlbut He intends to place it on
exhibition at the World fair.

SCORE ONE FOR WACO.
A BIG SUMNER AND WINTER RE
SORT TO BE ESTABLISHED
HERE.
A Sanitarium, NatatOrium and a
Lake for boating-Men and Money
ahOId of the New Enterprise.

There are agents for some northern
capitalist in the city today on tour
of inspection. For sufficient reasons
The New reporter is not permitted to
give the gentlemans name at present
but if all works we'll he and his prin-
ciples will shortly become well known.
The gentlemen have heard of Wscos
famous hot artesian wells and have
come here to see if the reports are
true and if so what advantage Waco
has taken Of the wonderful gift nature
has thus bestowed.
Upon arrival here they found that
there was only one natatorium and a
sapitanum only on paper. They in.
stantly saw the advantage aud profit
that would be derived from the estab-
lishment of fine hotel and sanitari-
um equipped as both summer and
winter resort, and are taking steps
accordingly. Part of yesterday and
nearly all of today were spent in
viewing suitable locations principally
In the northern part of the city.
Proctor Springs and several loca ito ms
on the proposed Bosque extensions of
the Hobson Line were viewed, OF
these locations Proctor Springs is
possibly given the preference on &C.
counts of its proximity TO the city and,
as the gentleman said, because it is
one of the prettiest locations for an
institution of the kind proposed in the
state.
If the resort is established, and
there is hardly any doubt but
that it will be, it will
be made into both resort for health
and pleasure seekers. A lake of ten
or fifteen acres will be made and steam
launches row and sail boats will be
placed upon it, A spacious swimming
pool, one large enough to accommodate
several hundred people, will be one Of
the features while ball grounds and
tennis courts will be arranged for such
as desire them.
Another important feature will be
pavilion capacity Of seating from
5000 to 1000 people. This will be
done so that when Waco secures such
gatherings as the State Firemen's as
ISOLATION, the Democratic State con-
vention or any of the many large as.
semblies which prefer to come to the
Artesian City on account of her cen.
trail location. she will have building
capable of seating them all. This
feature will, no doubt, commend itself
to every citizen of waco.
THE News hopes to be able in a
short time to give to the public the
information that this grand enterprise
is secured to Waco.

Bought CheaD.

One Of the largest purchases made
in Waco for some months was the
purchase on Tuesday of the entire
stock of wagons and agricultural ina.
plements of S. A. Owens & Son, sold
by the United States marshal to the
highest bidder. Mr.. w. E Dupree
was the purchaser for spot cash at a
very low price. This big stock added
to his own, makes the biggest stock of
agricultural implements in Central
Texas at his great houses, 101 and
lO5 Bridge street. His big stock en-
braces all the popular brands of
wagons, plows, oultivators, corn and
cotton planters and everything else in
the agricultural implement line. His
late purchase gives him big lever iu
prices and Dupree's agricultural house
is the best place to buy farmers
goods in the state.

Editor NEW 8.


As one acquainted with the biogra.
ply Of Judge Jno, G. West from away
back, esteem him very highly and
believe he would in this crisis make a
safe and effective mayor of this city.
He is man of most progressive ideas,
tempered with that sound conserva.
tism which makes the ideal executi, e
officer. From the time he came to
Texas from North Carolina In 1855,
he has always been at the front in
laudable enterprises. In the early
part OF the war he was one of the first
to enter the service of his country and
even when serving as Confederate
States District Attorney for the West
ern District of Texas, to which he was
appointed by President Jefferson Da
Wis, he placed the Office in charge of
a deputy and went to the front as a
private soldier, and fought, and was
wounded at Gettysburg and Cbica.
maugs, till ordered back to his office.
In twenty years practice of law after
the war in Waco, honors were poured
on him. He was again and again ap-
pointed Special District Judge, aud in
1867 he was assignee in bankruptcy
in eighty-one cases, so great was the
confidence 10 his financial ability and
answering integrity. The probate
records will show that in the manage
ment of estates he has again and again
settled up estates and paid to the
heirs double the amount of the valua
ton of the appraisers. In the last
twenty years he has given cheerfully
and liberally-one among the first
to all public enterprises, to every rail-
road, every church, every college and
other enterprises for the Advancement
of the city. On every public list his
name will be found for liberal amounts
and every subscription is marked paid.
Judge West was the first man to inaug-
urate the grand plate glass fronts
which are now all the rage in Waco
In fact, in all public things he has
always been among those in the front
rank of progress. But Judge West is
not untried in executive office. He
was Mayor Of Waco in 1875 and Judge
Gerald himself made no more brilliant
record in county finances than Judge
West did in city finances. He went
into office with Waco City scrip at
thirty cents on the dollar and when
he left it city scrip was up at par
one hundred cents on the dollar. He
is in the front rank in all progress and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, pushing,
and vigorous, while his keen common
sense and conservatism make him safe
in all weathers and conditions. The
writer has known him we'll for two de.
cades. There is no man to whom the
reins of government of Waco in this
hour could be more safely placed and
those who know him best will agree
with me fully.
