CATARRH IN THE HEAD

Is undoubtedly disease of the blood,
and as such only reliable blood puri-

blood purifier, and it has cured many

often times leads to consumption. Take

That's the way some of the general aver

more likely they are to have begged for an
invitation from poor, abused Mrs. De
Tompkins. 1t is beyond doubt that women
calling themselves ladies actually beg for
invitations to all manner of entertainments
in some cases actually having the imperti-
nence to present themselves even without
an invitation extorted at the point of the
bayonet! 1t is not long ago that scene
occurred at tie Chinese legation so dis

almost always women, a fact which leads
US to ask where lies that inherent delicacy

If Washington society is to be endurable, a
new code of etiquette should be adopted
The solicitations of people who do not wait
to be asked to public and private functions
should be ignored; cards of admission
should be issued to those who are invited.

THE NEW BRIDGE,

The question Of the location of
the new bridge across the Braz IS is
creating considerat lie interest. Quite
a number want it located at the
foot of Elm street, fronting the
alley just north of Bridge street,
1875 feet north Of the present bridge;
others want it at the foot Of Frank.
lin; while others want it at the foot
of Webster. Each location has
able and Influential champions,
some animated, perhaps, by selfish
motives, while others equally as
earnest differ as to the proper place
to build the brid &c, so as to be Of
the greatest convenience to the
largest number of persons in the
city and county. This last should
be the consideration which determine
its location. Looking at it from
that standpoint, to The NEWS, 1t
seems to build bridge within one
hundred and sxty.6ve feet of the
present structure, fronting an alley
which runs through the heart of the
reservation, could not add much to
the convenience or sightliness of
present accommodations. There
are many reasons which could be
given, but are too obvious to need
enumerating why the bridge should
be built at least one block away
from the present bridge, and any
one familiar with Waco who has
watched the movement south from
Austin, in a business way, will
readily determine, if the new
bridge is intended to accommodate
that business and those who patron
ize it, the bridge should be located
south rather than north of the pres
ent structure. If THE News was
certain this proposed bridge would
be the only bridge constructed
across the Braz )s for the next TWEEN
ty years it would favor the location
of it at the foot of Webster rather
than point north of that street,
and il any event it does not believe
it should be built north of Franklin.

So -
FACE THE music.

Does George Clark believe and
maintain that the Democratic ma.
tional platform Of 1892 opposed BIZ
metallism and endorsed gold as the
sole standard of value? Does he
honestly and truly believe and main.
tain that the Chicago platform in
its financial plank made the coinage
of silver wholly dependent upon an
international agreement as to the
proper ratio between the two met.
ais? Does he maintain that Presi-
dent Cleveland is above the plat
form on which he was elected-that
he can annul that platform at his
sovereign pleasure, and that when
he disregards and violates said plat
form it is the bounden duty of
Democrats to spurn aud kick aside
the platform and follow the presi-
dent through all his sinuosities of
policy and protean phases of politi.
cal heresy? We have purposely
adopted the Socratic mode of argu-
ment with Judge Clark, owing to
the fact that he is as cunning as an
old fox-as astute as a d0zen hair
splitting Philadelphia lawyers, as
lifpery as an eel and as sophlstical
az the entire school of ancient
sophists in Athens, and THE News
hopes he will bottle and cork his
chronic exuberauce of verbosity and
answer plainly and categorically.
In case he will answer in that fash
ion he will place himself in the
"nine hole" politically.
