SIDEWALKS.

There are some mighty tough
sidewalks in this city, One Of them
is the raised platform on the Maple
street side of the Kizer brick, lead
ing to the Cotton Belt depot, and
still another tough one is the one
from the George Taylor grocery
store to the city hall, ana yet they
are not the only "rattle traps in
the city, for "there are others Just
as bad. We can't see what good
city aldermen do us unless they pass
laws making property owners keep
their walks in repair, -TeXarkan-
ian.
The best evidence of a citys pro-
gress, energy and spirit of local
pride is to aim to secure smooth
and well paved sidewalks, During
a recent visit to Texarkana, this
writer had occasion to skip rapidly
down one Of those sidewalks to the
special train waiting, When be

he'd go down below or one Of the

TRAIN ON CHAMPAGNE.
New Innovation Introduced at Yale
by Coach Butterworth.

Boston. Dec. 4.-The startling an
nouncement was made here today that
YaIe's football success was due to
champagne training.
There was something unusual in the
way that Yale's football playe were
trained this fall. A great innovation
was made by Head Coach ButterWOrth
that, had it failed of success, would
have been laid up by many as a grave
error.
In former years the diet of the foot
ball players has been the most rigorous
of all the athletic teams. 1t was al
ways believed that a football player
needed rare beef and potatoes and Oat-
meal Sweets were considered danger
Gus, as were also all sorts of alcoholic
drinks. ButterwOrth this fall, much
against the wishes of many of the
coaches, adopted a most liberal form of
diet
The most radical of all innovations
by Butterworth was liberal supply
of champagne with every dinner The
dinner, which came at $50 o'clock in
the evening, was liberal in every
course, and was what is termed a
good, heavy dinner. There were soup
and fish and meat and sweets. Added
to this the champagne formed as liber-
al meal as a clubman would have.
The players enjoyed this change from
oatmeal and beefsteak and their phys
ical condition improved under it. As
soon as any player showed signs of
his hard work telling on him his supply
of champagne was increased and he
rapidly got back into condition.

WALL STREET is SAFE.
No Thief Has a Ghost of a Chance for
Making a Haul Within Its
Sacred Precincts.

New York, Dec. 4-On account of some
changes that have just been made in the
policing of the Wall Street district, the
men who dread thieves grew so nervous
that they carried their fears to the news
papers. Publicity led to the lifting of
the veil of secrecy in Mulberry street, and
new light has been thrown upon the
workings of the department in the worlds
greatest financial center.
The dead line" marked off by ex-chief
Byrnes. which was Fulton street, has lost
some of its meaning to the police and to
the criminal. Known thieves who are
caught below it are still arrested, and
there are plenty of detectives on duty in
the Wall street district to maintain the
old rule. Eighteen men were watching
there yesterday afternoon, but the dead
line" has been carried uptown to the
northern limit of the Greater New York,
by the order of the head of the detective
bureau that his men shall arrest thieves
wherever they may meet them. The only
advantage Wall street has is that there
are so many more detectives there that
arrest is practically certain. Even the
reformed criminals cannot pass. Though
the staff knows they have turned over a
new leaf, some detective is sure to take
them uptown to see the captain, leaving
to him their discharge. The Wall street
sleuths are of two varieties-Old men who
know all the brokers, bankers, banks and
all the institutions in that locality, and
new men who know and are acquainted
with all the younger pests of society. The
new men are changed every fortnight in
order to enable the squad to Keep up
with the gallery" The mugs that fill
the last pages in the rogues gallery are
strangers to the Wall street "steadies,"
but the young sleuths can pick them out
of the mighty throng that fills the nar~
row streets below the dreaded dead
line"

UNCLE SAM'S AUTOMATON.
A MaiIbox Which Registers a Letter
for Dime and Won't Accept
Spurious Coins.

New York, Dec. 4-POstmaster Gen
eraI Gary has ordered that a new au-
tomato mail box for registering letters
be tested-in this city for six weeks.
Three of the boxes, known as the
Di Brazza letter registering box, are
in use at present One is in the gen
eraI postoff1ce. another is in the rotun-
da of the Equitable Life Insurance
building and the third at No. L Broad
way.
BY dropping a dime into a slot in the
box, sliding a letter into another aper-
ture, and turning a handle on the ma
chine, a registered receipt for the let
ter will appear.
If a spurious or underweight coin is
inserted, the machine will not, it is
said, accept it. The machine also in
forms the collector which coin accom-
panied each letter.
There is. it is claimed, no way of
cheating the machine and vice versa.
If a person pays a dime and forgets to
deliver a letter, the machine will not
number the receipt

used about a dozen boxes, with the result
that she was entirely well, and since then

wonderful good in Clara's case, doing what

While in the neighberhood of Rugby,
Indiana, recently, a reporter was told that
Miss Clara Hopkins, daughter of Mr. Dennis
Hopkins 8 prominent farmer of Bartho-
lomew County. had been the subject Of 8
remarkable transformation. The reporter
decided to investigate and learn the par
ticulars. He was driven 10 DIR. Hopkins
splendid country home, where he had an
Interesting conversation with that gentleman
regarding the illness Of his only daughter
" You have been correctly informed, " said
Mr. Hopkins, 50 for Clara has indeed had a
severe siege. She tried DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People and they did her more
good than all other medicines together that she
ever took A few boxes of that medicine
accomplished the cure of a case in a few
months which had baffled physicians for
years
About three years ago her health began
TO fail The doctor who attended her said this
was caused by weak digestion. This produced
nervousness, which was accompanied by neu-
ralgic troubles which at first was located IN
the nerves about the heart Of course this
was dangerous location for any such trouble,
and she rapidly grew worse Notwithstanding
that the physician was treating her. This
continued till 8 year ago last November, at
which time she was almost constantly confined
to her bed.
'The neuralgia became gradually worse,
and finally she was a confirmed victim to It,
Nervous prostrstiOn set in, and she WAS
soon all run down. Her blood was impure
