CLIMATOLOGY CONGRESS. +.
Closing Report Today - Atlanta, Ca,

Closing Report Today - Atlanta, Ca,
May Secure the Next Meeting.
The first annual session of the
Worlds Congress of Medico-Cli-
matology adjourned, sine die, this
morning at 11:30 o'clock. The
time and place of the next meeting
will be determined by the execu-
tive committee of the congress,
with whom the expression of the
body that it be held at Atlanta,
Ga, will have due weight.
The genius of DR.. Paul Paquin,
of st. Louis, has dominated during
the whole convention. He cap
tured the whole assembly with
his forceful exposition of his serum
treatment, and from day to day
has been called upon for remarks
anent the serum theory. 1t is ex-
tremely probable that he will
make an effort to establish a sani-
tarium here.
The time of the congress was
taken up this morning with dis.
cussing the propriety of passing
resolutions endorsing a bill which
has been introduced into congress,
providing for the establishment
OF national sanitariums for
scientific investigation of con-
sumption and climatic influence
thereon. The sense of the meeting
was that a committee of five con-
slider the propriety of such action
and report at the next annual
meeting.
The delegates have seen San An
tonic at her worst as we'll as her
best.
They are highly delighted with
the climate, and say that the data
afforded them by this convention
will bring an influx of invalids as
would be commensurate with the
average city of 100000 Inhabitants.
A large portion of the visitors
left for the coast via the Arkansas
Pass, at l 80 this afternoon, and will
return Monday afternoon,

The New Tragic Star,

A dramatic treat at popular
prices, was given by the Edwin
Ferry company at the Grand last
night, in the presentation of the
tragedy of "Othello, the Jealous
Moor" His supporting company
was quite capable and was we'll
cast. Mr.. Ferry assumed the role
of Othello playing it in rather a
refined manner, but smoothly and
with good voice and figure. The
lago Of Mr.. Chas. Collins, really
the most difficult role of the cast,
was fully up to popular tradition
aud showed great merit. Miss
Helen Budd was charming Des-
demona.

A Progressive Farmer.

Col. j. G. Carr, of this city, has
shown the LIGHT man letter
from Major G.. w. Lavender, q
prominent stock-farmer of Dimmit
county, who is setting a good ex-
ample for others to follow in this
section of periodical drouths. He
says that he began sometime ago
boring for artesian water and is
very sanguine of success. At the
time of writing, his we'll was one
hundred and sixty feet deep with
water within thirty-four feet of
the top. If he succeeds in getting
flowing water in abundance, he ex-
poets to use it in irrigating, as well
as watering stock. Mr.. Lavender
is planting corn this week, and is
going to try to raise his own sup
plies and live at home. He is q
democrat not of the mossback
variety, but a regular precedent
breaker, for he expresses himself
as fully endorsing the restoration
of the Mckinley tariff on cattle,
and believes in that sort of pretec-
tion that extends to all industries
alike. 1t is refreshing for an old
veteran like this to speak out in
such times as these when so many
OF the True Blues are crying out
Hdon't break the old time prece-,
dents and customs of the demo-
cratic partyw Yes, it is refreshing,
and indicates political progress.

Gludness Comes

With better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. tbs therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep.
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then Taxa.
tives or other remedies are not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

LOCAL DEMOCRATIC AFFAIRS
The Coming of Candidate Bryan Not Def
nitely Fixed.
Mr.. John n. Mclean VIII Hardly BE
Chairman of the Mecting-An
Advisory Committee.

The local democrats appear to be plunged
in fog of uncertainty over the proposed
visit to this city of Candidate William ].
Bryan, and an irreverent member of the
committee. representing the District DEM
ocratic organizations which have in charge
the arrangements for the meeting which
1t Is intended to hold in connection with
Mr. Bryan's coming remark today that If
the ratification was postponed much longer
1t might be changed into the character Of
wake He is joker, however, and de-
MED that this humor was inspired by any
doubt in the triumph of democracy this
fall. Chairman Thomas B. kalbfus of the
democratic central committee, and also
chairman Of the committee on the ratifica-
tiCn meeting, said today that he knew
nothing definite regarding it, but that
everything would be appropriately settled
when the proper time came.
He also said that Mr.. William Dickson
had sent a telegram to Mr.. Bryan Satur-
day night, asking If he could name the pre-
else date of his appearance here, but had
received no reply. 1t was the intention of
the committee to get Mr.. John r. Mclean
to preside over the ratification meeting but
it is rumored in circles where gossip is
usually founded on facts that Mr. Mclean
has declined the honor. So 1t is probable
mat some other gentleman will WELD the
gaVel on the occasion under consideration
The meeting, when held, will take place
IN Convention Hall, and 1t is probable that
seats will be reserved to the extent of = 500
or $500, leaving the remainder of the vast
auditorium foF the general public.
The platform from which Mr. Bryan will
speak will be erected on the west side of
the hail. thus giving the audience a better
chance to hear than If the address was
made from the south end where the reg
ular stage is situated. This arrangement
was followed when Senator Gordon lee
tured in the hall two or three years ago.
MIR. James L. Norris, assistant treasurer
OF the democratic national committee, has
sent out number of letters to leading
democrats in the District requesting them
to act as members of an advisory commit
tee about to be formed here. The letters
are addressed to prominent men in each
section of the city and contain the names
of others living in the same locality with
the request that they be called on by the
recipient of the letter and asked to act in
the proposed body.
