Men far down the path Of life, whoyvhsd
they suddenly sbstained from their long
accustomed use Of stimulRnts for half
the time occupied by taking the treat
ment, without it's aid would get pretty
near the jumping of place. In three or
four weeks these men attain the appear
snce Of those who have always led alb
steminous lives.
Well might the remedies be termed
magical. Go to q Keeley institute and
view for yourself the rum-soaked,
blotched, blOated wrecks Of humanity as
they enter the institute to take their
first shot. Then view the trsnsforms-
tiOn that has taken place at the expira-
tion of their term Of treatment, restored
to their natural image, healthful in
color, bright of eye, clear Of brain, elias
tic with hope. You see in them men
who are born again. When a remedy

Of Kelley patients, for over fifty years
and eradicate it in three weeks, when it
has been tIOenty-sGg hundred weeks get

marvel? IT'S magical, indeed.
The treatment kills some patients who
undergo it, you hear repeated. 1t is like
the stories circulated about loss Of Vigor
in connection with the trestment-en-
tirely without foundation. DR.. Kelley
does mot pose in rivalry to the Power
Omnipotent; and when a patient is
brought to him with body so shattered
and enfeebled by it's terrible battle with
dissipation that the spirit is already fee
ing from q tenement that no longer has
the power to retain it, DR.. Kelley can
not perform the miracle Of cure in such
case. Emphsticslly, no one dies from
the effects Of the Kelley cure. Thou
sands Of lives are saved through it's
instrumentality. Let no such absurd
statements which emanRte from malice
or through ignorance stand between you
and the cure If you need it.

because God Almighty chose him for his
partner or sole agent for the introduo-

and leaving them out Of the deal. Doc

fellows. If one of their number, through
explorations in o field not enclosed by
the orthodox fence, makes such q rich
find as DIR. Kelley has, some Of them will
get after him like q pack Of snsrling,
yelping coyotes on the trial Of q jack

place, however, among physicians; and
many who number among the best med

Kelley remedies. Occasionally those
who attach M. D. to their name slip in
and take a three or four weeks course

III THIRTEENTH.
1t Will Be a Gold Day for the City
Ring.


Although last night was as cold a night
as the thirteenth of February will be a
cold day for the city ring ticket, the
weather did not effect the enthusiastic
Possibilities. They were holding their
meetings and hearing speeches in support
of the tidal ticket the people started on
January - to sweep OvC the city ring on
February l3.
Elaherty's hall. on Duval and Hackber-
ry streets. was the meeting place of sew
cral hundred supporters of the PaSchal
by next Mayor PaSchal, Mr.. A. Levy and
others.
There was also an interesting meeting
of the WOodlawn PaSchal club in that
suburb which was well attended and at
which addresses were delivered by MeSSrS.
Oscar Kiercn. William Lily and others.
After the addresses were delivered this
club selected committees for various
work on election day.
The West Sid Reforms club also met at
Grandjean'S hall and a number OF speech
eS were made in advocacy of the PaSchal
ticket.
Tonight the voters of the Sixth ward
will meet at Limberger'S hall when strong
PaSchal speeches will be delivered.
POLITICAL POINTERS.
Mayor Lockwood has put himself on
record as being opposed to a fair election.
He, in an interview, opposed the city
ordinance for that purpose proposed by
the city attorney and now awaiting the
action of the council.
Alderman Conner is credited with say
ing that he forgot that the council was
to have met last Monday and that was
his reason for not attending, He was
shown on Saturday evening the petition
of citizens asking for the appointment OF
an equal number of impartial judges
from both sides and said when shown it
that he would be there to see that the
proper action was taken on in on Mon
day.
"Wil Mayor Lockwood call a special
meeting for action by the city council on
the peoples petition for a fair election
or nOt?" is the question asked every
where.
The law makes it the duty of the city
council to meet and adopt a form for the
official ballots to be used by the voters at
the election. How a they get around
doing that?
Will the city ring candidates answer the
people and say what policies they propose
to pursue in the doubtful event Of their
election?
Will the city ring wait until the 14th to
answer these questions by the question:
Where are we at 2"

HITTING THE WRONG MAN.
A Very Pertinent Question on the
Scab Subject.

For some time the city ring has been
induStrlouSTS engaged in the circulation
of a report to the effect hat Mr.. Kamp-
mann had furnished the first engineer to
run an engine of the Arkansas Pass train
that ran out during the strike last year.
The fact in the case are simply these.
There was al engineer in Mr.. Kamp-
MAINS employ who had some time before
had some trouble with the Order of Loco
motive Engineers and who was getting a
salary of 800 per month from Mr.. Kamp-
mann He was offered $3.50 by the re-
ceiverS of the Arkansas Pass to take out
the Kerrville train ana run on the road
during the strike SO he did so and Mr..
kampmann had nothing to do with it
Several people are asking, however.
which one of the principal supporters of
the ring ticket it was VINO really was the
first person TO offer himself to run an en-
CINE for the receivers?
After the part the city ring took in the
strike it is suggested that the least they
say about the scab business the better.

A sHODDY STRUCTURE.
That Is What the New Asylum is
Termed.

The legislative committee that came
over here about a week ago and inspec-
ted the new Southwest Texas Insane Asy-
lum have prepared their report which
will be submitted to the legislature
during this week. The report will say that
the committee found the institution well
conducted and the inmates as comfOr-
table and humanely cared for as possible.

worth the pitiful sumo that the niggardly
legislature spent on its construction. 1t

job could be done, but a cheap public
building is always a dear one
The committee will recommend more
liberal appropriations for additional and
much needed supplemental structures.

Robbed Freight Cars.

A gang of thieves broke into six freight
cars on the |. & G. n. track yesterday and
goods, boots, shoes, etc. 1t is believed as
much as 800 worth of goods were stolen.
The matter was not reported to the city
detectives until late last evening, and it
too late to make a thorough frveSti-
CATION by which there might have been a
possible chance to locate the thief or
thieves. The general belief is that the
robbery was committed by residents in
ties of life.

PRESERVING THE AGR1CULTUR1sT

Mr.. Geo. w. Hastings, of Interlachen,
gives the following good advice to the
readers Of the AGRICULTURIsT. He says:
"There is no number Of the AGRICUL-
TURIsT that does not contain some article
of value to the farmer, fruit grower,
poultry raiser, florist or to the home,
that may not want to be referred to again,
and possibly year or several years hence,
and if you cannot afford a binder here
is one that need not cost you a cent.
''Gather the numbers for a year to-
gether, make the backs and tops even by
jogging them together, lay them on the
floor Or on a solid board or bench, and
drive a wire nail through the back, about
an inch from the top and halfinc from
the edge pinning it to the wood; then
drive another nail the same distance
from the bottom, and a third one in the
middle in the same manner. Draw the
first nail, and run through the hole a
piece Of strong Irvine and tie the two
ends at the back Then draw the nail
at the bottom, tying with Irvine, and
lastly the nail in the middle, and fasten
with Irvine in the same manner, and you
have the volume completely bound. For
a cover take piece of heavy MANILA
paper, Of the size of the volume, and
paste it at the back. In this way you
have your AGRICULTURIsT bound, and for
all practical purposes as good as ten
cent binder and no cost but the labor"

SORGHUM FOR FORAGE.

Floridians are still struggling with the
forage question. True there has been
great progress made in the solution Of
the question during the past few years.
With our crab grass, beggar weed, corn
fodder, ETC., we are not nearly as much
dependent upon the meadows of the
North and West as formerly. Still it is
a fact that we do not produce as much
as we consume by several thousand tons,
and as long as the price of hay hovers
in the vicinity of one cent per pound, it
will pay us to keep on trying until we
find something to take the place of the
Northern timothy.
Our attention has been recently called
to sorghum as a forage plant. In several
places in the State this has been tried,
and the verdict is almost without excep-
ton one of commentator. Those who
have tried it say that in point of yield,
nutriment, ETC., it has no equal. The
plant is easily grown and cured it is
greatly relshed by stock and the yield
per acre is enormous. The fattening
qualities of the plant are we'll known and
appreciated by those who have made
business of raising fat cattle. A gentle
man, of DeLand, who prides himself
with having carried off large number
Of r"mi"ms at the Northern fairs for
faL c;,,t.e, lays there is nothing to equal
sorghum as a fat producer.
Sorghum will grow on any land that
will produce corn; of course like every
thing else the better the land the better
will be the yield, but we think there is
little if any land in the orange region of
the State that will not produce good sor-
ghum with care and little fertilizer. In
young orange groves, where there is
great waste of land between the young
trees, we think it would gay the grower
to plant sorghum and thus reduce his hay

COMPULSORY COOPERATION.

That cancerOus growth of the repub
lie known as the White Caps have
turned their attention to the matter Of
bulling the cotton market. OF course
they operate in manner entirely origi-
nal and it is needless to say vicious.
They have issued manifestoes in the
cotton growing regions of the South adj
dressed to the ginners warning them not
to gin a pound of cotton until the price
has reached the 10 cent point, and
threatening to burn their gin houses if
they disregard the warning. Some of
the ginners not choosing to have others
run their business for them disregarded
the warning and proceeded to gin all the
cotton brought to them. The result Of
this was that their gin houses were
burned. This, of course, soon put a
stop to the ginning operations, and at

LOUISIANA TO THE FRONT.

Louisiana orange growers have dlscoV-
cred that they cannot grow oranges
profitably as long as they pursue the
slip shod methods of former years. They
have made a move towards improved
methods Of packing and marketing, and
the Louisiana fruit in the future is likely
to compete with the Florida fruit in the
early market.
Speaking of this matter the Fruit
Trade Journal of New York says an in
novation upon the old method of market
ing the Louisiana orange is to prevail
this season. AS previously announced,
Messrs. p Ruhlman & Co. have been
appointed New York agents of what is
said to be the largest orange plantation
in the State of Louisiana, and they antic-
ipate receiving an average Of five cars
weekly, beginning about September 25th
to October 1st.
The grove is known as the Bradlsh
johnson orange grove and it's crop has
been purchased by two leading New Or
leans houses, Messrs. Arthur Caron & Co.,
and S. Oteri. These firms thoroughly ex
