Among the most interesting and original
sights in San Antonio are the open air res
taurants kept by Mexican women at night
in the Plaza des Armes. The way thither
Is through rather low quarter of the town,
by innumerable saloons in which there Is
much Gathering Of glasses and loud merri-
ment, and the emphatic notes of music in
the dance halls. In the square itself, now
lit by the glaring electric lights and illu-
minated by colored lanterns, are spread
long tables attended by comely Mexican
girls and young women with bright black
eyes and abundant black hair who greet
you with a smile, showing white teeth, and
invitations to partake of ''chile con carne, -
or pepper with meat-and mere pepper than
meat, by the way-"tamales," ,"''enchilades"
and other specimens of the Mexican cuisine,
Of which fieriness is the pervading essential.
They are said to be safe and even beneficial
to the digestion. but the unhardened palate
would be apt to imagine that it was swal-
lowing torchlight procession. 1t is safer
to try the excellently cooked and tender
chicken, which is provided for strangers
and tourists, with the cornshuck cigarette
rolled by the young lady in charge for a
digester. Around the tables are a few
swarthy Mexicans in broad brimmed hats
enjoying their food or their cigarettes and
jabbering their patois, and a few curious
strangers attracted by the novelty.-Cor

WHY THEY SUCCEED.

The remarkable success which the
Scott Medical institute has achieved in
every department of its practice has cre-
ated a good deal of comment not only
among the people who are tfficted with
chronic diseases, but also among their
brother practitioners and the question is
often asked, "Wh it is the cause of this
large measure of SUGGEST The answer
may be stated in few words. In the
first place the PHYSICIANS of the Scott
Medical institute are skilled men.
In tine second place they give their
whole time to their patients and 10 their
p ofessiOn. When they are not in the
consultation room in attendance upon
their patients they are discussing the pc
culiar features of individual cases, SO that
they may be ready to apply the result of
their deliberations in the consulting
room.
This is the whole secret of their sue.
cess.
With them the science OF medicine is a
constant growth, and every case special
study. Not point that has sny possible
bearing on the case in hand is over
looked. This is the reason that they sue
ceed where others fail.
Chronic diseases require chronic trest
ment Your trouble has been years com
ing on you. 1t mas invaded every part OF
your system, weakened and reduced you.
Do you expect to be cured in q week or q
month? Be reasonable, we are not per
forming miracles-simply applying sci
ence TO the practice Of medicine.

They Were All Drowned.

Manager Nate" Salisbury says that when
he was last across the pond he put up for a
day in an Irish town. He was lingering
over a cigar in a smoking room at his hotel
"a room at the back of the building and
overlooking a canal-when he noticed an
other occupant OF the place The reason
for noticing him was the other fellow S tier
alton of the phrase. And there were thir-
teen av thin drowned, and me own brother
amang thin" This soliloquist was a ma
tive, man in middle life, who made his
remarks at ten minute intervals, gazing
sadly out upon the canal meanwhile At
last he could no longer contain the infor-
nation that he was almost perishing to i'm
part, and turning to Mr.. Salisbury he said :
"'Twas sad accident they had here, sure,
two years ago come the 18th of mkt Sep
tember, and me own brother amang thin !"
How was that ?" asked Mr.. Salisbury,
willing to be sympathetic.
We'll, ye see, it was loike this: There
did be coachin party start that marnin-
thirteen people, and me own brother amang
thim-and they set off in grand sthyle, but
whin they got to the bridge ye see beyant,
forninst tn lock, the bridge broke and they
fell Trough, the whole thirteen, me own
brother wan av thin. There was little
wather in the canal jist at the tonne, but
the whole crowd got floundering in th'
mud, whin the lock keeper opened the gates
and let in q power av wather, and that
finished the whole thirteen, and me own
brother amang thin"
What did the old fool let on the water
for ?''

once the independent spirit of the Scotch

the Buccleugh pipers could be made to play
q certain air which commemorated the
flight of the Scots from some rival gang of
marauders a century or two ago An Eng

the case that the amount paid out for the
redemption of any series OF notes is al
ways less than the total amount issued of
that series, for the very natural reason
that many notes are burned up or lost
where they are never found. And what
adds to the probability of counterfeit
notes having been redeemed by treasury
officials with good aud lswf money is
the fact that there was dangerous coun-
terfet $500 note known to have been put

Nebeker endesvOrs to explsin by say
ing that through an error notes of another
series may have been counted as in that

this fact will be clearly shown when the
series of 1875 shall have all been pre-
sented for redemption. 1t is very natural
that Mr.. Nebeker should try to make
