taken away by the disease which causes
over one sixth of all the deaths IN the
world-the disease which doctors call con-
sumption. Consumption has been consid-
cred inCurable, and the medical profession
has never made greater mistake than this.
There Is absolutely no reason IN the world
why consumption should be fatal-why It
should be even serious. 1t IS disease OF
the blood, and can be cured absolutely and
always by purifying and enrichfng the
blood The only exception to this Is the
case where the disease has been neglected
and improperly treated until II is stronger
than the body-unti1 the body has become
so weak as to have lost the ability TO recu-
perate. DR.. Pierce'S Golden Medical Dis
covery will cure % per cent. Of all cases Of
consumption If used according TO direc-
tons. 1t also cures all lingering coughs,
bronchial and throat affections. There
is no reason why the child of consump-
tive parents need ever have consump-
ton if its blood and lungs are strength

This is the time Of year when the Capitol
building is thoroughly renovated and cleaned.
The most important feature is the placing Of
the new electric-lght plants. During the last
session the statesmen were worried by the
noise Of the alternating current dynsmos; in
fact few of the more timid Senators were
afraid for tie safety of the building, and in
cidcntally for their own. Near the close of
the session appropriation was made for
new plant but is was stipulated that the new
dynamos were not to be of the alternating
type

statues for Statuary Hall. One is of Pere

constantly receiving new art works. Among
these are the statue of Science by John D0no-

The I.ennard bullet proof cloth was given

been put up by its maker in such a shape that
its value for bullet-proof garments or even for

The process of manufacture was stated to be a
secret. and the material was presented to the
Ornance Office in such shape us to keep it so.

A meeting was held yester
day morning at the Southern
Hotel between Capt. Puette,
John Doak, II. B. Sinner and
Judge James o. 1uby and H.
j .Delimar of San Diego. There
were several other gentlemen
present whose names could not
be secured.
The object of the meeting
was the construction of a rail
road between this city and
Brownsville. Messrs. Puette
and Doak represent st. Louis
capital and are the promoters
in the scheme. The matter was
discussed at some length, but
no final action taken. Judge
Luby exhibited a map of the
country and the subscription
list of the San Diego people,
who offer a bonus of $4,000 per
mile through that county, right
of-way and depot grounds.
The route proposed is via
Pleasanton, Tilden and San
Diego. Afessrs. Puette and
Doak will leave in a few days.
accompanied by an expert en-
gineer and guides. They will
make a preliminary survey and
on their return will make a pro-
file Of the route.
Judge Luby was seen yester-
day by a reporter for the Ex-
press and in an interview said
that the San Diego people were
very much interested in railway
connection with San Antonio,
and would do all in their pow
er to secure the same. "The pro-
posed route" said Judge, Luby
sis the best that can be made
between the two points, because
the water sheds run south in
:: that part of the country which
the road is expected to pass,
whereas, on the other route
| the water shed runs north, ne
cessitating more bridging and
a greater expense Of construc-
ton. l think the proposition
of these gentlemen is very lib
eral as they do not ask for a
cent until the road is completed
to the various points. They
propose building the road to
Pleasanton and place it in oper
alton before constructing more
road. If they do that it will
demonstrate that they can car
ry out the contract and lend en-
couragement to the subscribers
further down the line"
Judge Luby will leave this
morning for Austin on private
