KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort ard improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet.
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting

ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
atiye; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.

met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid

every Objectionable substance.

Lynching weakens the govern

brutalizes our population. The ne
groes have stood and shuddered at
it until at McGhee last Friday, of
some of their own race, and hoping
to avert any blame from themselves
they took a prominent part in the
lynching, and even wanted to CON
troll it altogether. To what depths
is humanity coming in the dying of
the Nineteenth Century, We
seem going backward to the
chickering's of the Paganism that
Gibbon loved and Christianity de-
stroyed.

MRS. P. A. TURNER DEAD,

At the family residence, in this
city, at $50 o'clock this morning,
Mrs. Mary Turner, wife of Mayor
P. A. Turner departed this life. Her
death was a surprise to all about
her, as it will be a shock to the en-
tire community, coming as it does,
so suddenly and unexpectedly
Since "acouchement, some weeks
since, the deceased has undergone
very trying illness, but no serious
alarm was felt up to a few mo
Iments before death occurred, when
the patient suddenly grew worse,
and had what was thought to be a
fainting spell. Neighbors were
called in and physicians hastily
summoned, but to no avail, as
death was found to have intervened
the result, it is supposed, of conges
tion, or possibly heart failure. The
deceased was daughter of Col
Reese Hughes, one of the wealthiest
of North Texas pioneers, and the
wife of Mayor P. A. Turner, of the
West Side, a leading lawyer of the
North Texas bar. She was the
mother of an interesting family
herself being in the prime of life,
and surrounded by all the joys Of
domestic life, a husbands devoted
affection and childrens loving re-
gard. The TEXARKANIAN joins with
our people in an expression of deep
sympathy and most sincere regret
for the bereayed husband and
motherless children, in this hour
of sad affection. The funeral will
take place from the family home,
on Olive street, at 10 o'clock Sun
day morning, interment at Rose
Hill cemetery.

STRIKE INVESTIGATION.
The Commission Agrees on General
Features of Its Report, then
Adjourns to Nov. 1st.

WASHINGTON, September 27.-The
United States commission appoint
ed toinvestigate the Chicago strike,
after a two days executive session
for the purpose of discussing and
deciding on the nature of the re-
port to be submitted to the Presi-
dent, adjourned this morning until
the last week in October. The com
mission has about harmonized such
differences of opinion as existed and
there will be no minority report.
The report will be a vigorous docu-
ment, so one of the commission said
this evening, and will, after sum-
marizing the facts as set forth in
the testimony and discussing at
considerable length the scheme sug-
gested for adjusting and avoiding
differences between labor and capi-
tai, give its conclusions. These
conclusions the commission has de-
cided not to make public. 1t would,
they say, be discourteous to the
President to do so.
"The solution of the problem
with which we are to deal, said
one of the commissioners, is a
more difficult one than that of the
civil war. The government knew
what it had to meet-force against
force. This problem is beset with
all the perplexities that surrounded
the rights of capital and of person
al liberty. We have had the expe-
rience of other countries to guide
us. The report will discuss the
question in all its phases, and
think offer something practical, al
though of course any legislation
must be tentative"
1t is believed that the report will
lay special stress on arbitration and
will offer a general scheme of arbi-
tratlon for the settlement of future
difficulties.

RETRIBUTIvE JUSTICE.

Perhaps the most correct sum-
ming up of Congressman Breckin-
ridges defeat, and consequent re-
tirement to the perpetual shades, "
or, more correctly, perpetual
hades, of private life, is that of
the Commercial-Appeal, which
says:
The defeat of Congressman
Breckenridge, richly deserved as it
was, is a tragedy that must make
sad even those who rejoice that
Just retribution has overtaken a life
of sin and shame and duplicity,
Breckenridge is a man of distin-
guished ability, and has had a
brilliant and useful career, which
had not reached it's zenith when his
secret sin found him out and dis
closed the inside Of the whited sep
ulcre. His public life was pure and
no faint of scandal of suspicion OF
dishonor has ever attached to his
record as a legislator. His private
life was one of shameful licentious.
ness and depravity. He has fallen a
victim to his own vice, and robbed
himself and the country of career
that was full of great possibilities
of usefulness to himself and man

AID TO BEAUTY,

The society ladies of Paris have
discovered new method for making
themselves attractive and for ad-
ding to their natural charms. They
have adopted a luminous face pow
der
The blue and yellow rays of light
falling upon the face and shoulders
of ladies in full dress give them in
the case of electric light often a
ghastly appearance, and in the case
of gas a yellow look The separat-
ing of these rays, and thus lessen
ing their effect, is easily done in
chemistry by solution of bichlor-
ide of potash. The electric light
is especially rich in rays of violet,
and these have a most unpleasant
effect upon the human face. And
to the avoidance of this effect a
certain French student has recent
ly been giving his attention, with
the result that he has produced a
face powder that is as delicate and
fine as the popular article made
from rice.
The foundation of this luminous
powder is sulphate ofquinine, which
has been dissolved in alcohol and is
mixed with sulphate of zinc. 1t is
called phosphorescent or duorescent
because it retains it's brilliancy for
several hours and in the hottest
sun. In addition to being an ad-
lunct to womankind to heighten
beauty, it has been found to protect
it's user from the depressing effect
of the sun. The face is first damp
ened by the lotion made from the
quinine and alcohol, and is ther
powdered with the sulphate Of
zinc,
The only objection to the powder
is the faint of sel6shness that at
tends it. When the lady has com
pleted her toilet, she plunges hel
powder puff into the box of lumin
GUS powder and passes it sparsell
over her face and neck From that
moment she takes brilliant colo
that is as delicate and conspicuous
as the pure white of Parian marble
and which has the effect of givinl
to all other faces in the immediat,
vicinity a citron yellow tint that ]
destructive of beauty,
The powder wards od from tn,
complexion the damaging colore,
rays that are in the spectrum, AM
thereby purihes the tint Of tn
skin so that it is freed from al
blemishes brought by che light
and becomes so pure as almost t

WHAT THEY THINK OF IT.

What is thought of David b.
Hills nomination for Governor of
New York, in legislative and official
circles at Washington, may be gath
cred from the opinions expressed in
the following Washington special,
of Yesterday, which says;
Franklin D. Locke, one of the
most prominent lawyers and Demo
Gratis at Buffalo, great friend of
President Cleveland and one of the
foremost men at the Syracuse con-
vention, when spoken to of Hills
nomination, said: "In what | say
let it be understood that | speak
only for myself, / will neither
work nor vote for Senator Hill for
Governor My Indictment against
him has two counts. First, | main
tain that from March Bird, 1893, he
has done everything he could to
harass, annoy and obstruct the
Democratic administration here.
Second, l regard him as primarily
responsible for the offense in the
state of New York for which Judge
Maynard was tried and convicted
last year. The only real defense
Judge Maynard had was that he
was a good-natured fellow and was
compelled to do what he did by the
overpowering influence Of David b.
Hill. | will vote for no man con-
nected with that crime, ! do not
see how Judge Gaynor can accept
after the treatment of the contest
ed delegation from Kings county.
Mr.. Lockwood's nomination for
/ Lieutenant Governor l regard as
an admirable one. ! shall only re-
gret it if he is on the ticket with
Hill"
Representative Tarsney, Dem.)
Missouri. "Mr Hills nomination
is an exceptionally strong one. Mr.
Hill is a man of rare political sagac-
ity. He would not take a nomina-
tion if he were to be sacrificed. His
willingness to accept the leadership
of the New York Democracy this
year is, in my opinion, the most
convincing proof yet advanced that
the Democrats will carry the state.
His election will make him a big
factor in the next Presidential
fight"
Senator Stewart, (Pop.) Nevada
'If Senator Hill stands on and en-
dorses the financial plank of the
platform the banks must elect him.
OF course the question of Mr..
Cleveland's attitude toward Sena-
tor Hill will be an important one.
Mr.. Cleveland has been suffering
from malaria this summer, be-
lieve. The only specific for malaria,
the disciples of physic tell us, is bit
ters. If Mr.. Cleveland swallows the
New York nomination the pill
ought to be bitter enough to cure
the most chronic case Of malaria
extant.
