A. CITY of Mexico dispatch OF
the 9th instant, states that all
existing concessions for railways
granted to the Mexican
National Construction Company
have been forfeited for non-ful-
fillment of the terms of charters
The company, however, has one
line in operation from Manzanillo-
on the Pacific coast to Colima,
capital of the State of the same
name. This line of course re-
mains in possession of the COM
pany, but it loses the proposed
extension of this line from Colima
to the City of Guadalajara.
The Mexican National Con-
struction Company built the
Mexican National Railway and
holds a large share of its second
mortgage bonds. Gen. Palmer
of New York and James Sullivan
are prominent men in the con-
struction company and it is be-
lieved that they will secure new
concessions to carry out their
projects.

HON. JOE BAILEY, of Texas,

HON. JOE BAILEY, of Texas,
has returned to Washington from
his Western canvass in the inter
est of democracy, and in response
to questions propounded in an
interview, says concerning Mr..
Bryan: "Mr. Bryan is a better
democrat than when he was nom
mated, and he appears to be set
Ting down upon basis that en-
titles him to the support of all
democrats who stand squarely
upon the undying principles OF
the party that was founded by
jefferson. l differed from Mr..
Bryan in many of his earlier
opinions and convictions, but
since his nomination he has kept
himself in everything that he has
said and done strictly within the
limitations of the Chicago plat
form, and that platform is good
enough for me or any other dem
ocrat to stand on. When Mr..
Bryan first entered congress, six
years ago, he was a tariff special
list, his studies having been con-
fined largely to economic ques-
tons. Since then he has broad
ened out immensely and know
of no man who more fully repre-
sents the popular idea of pure
democracy than he does. He is
a true American, a patriot and a
man whom the democrats of the
country feel that they can
trust"

Did you ever stop 20 think what iudiges-
ton really mesns? 1t means simply. that
your stomach is tired. If your legs are
tired, we ride. The horse and the steam
engine do the work. Why not give your
stomach ride; that is let something else do
its work. Foods can be digested outside of
the body. All plants contain digestive
principles which will Go this. The Shaker
Digestive Cordial contains digestive princi-
pies which will do this. The Shaker Diges-
tive Cordial contains digestive principles
and is preparation designed 10 rest the
stomach. The shakers themselves have such
unbounded confidence in it that they have
placed 10 cent sample bottles on the market,
and it is said that even So small a quantity
proves beneficial in a vast majority OF cases.
All druggists keep it.

TEXAS Farm and Ranch doubts
if there is any other country on
earth where the rains are more
finely adjusted to the needs of
farmers than in the great agri-
cultural regions of Texas. Owing
to inherent perversity of human
nature, it is impossible to give
universal satisfaction. The rains
not only fall as often as needed,
but in just the right quantities.
Not only that, but it rains on
Saturday nights, after the weeks
work is done, shines on Sundays,
and by Monday the ground is in
beautiful condition for the pillow.
We do not mean to assert that
this is universally the case. We
have known rain to fall every
day in the week, but that is gen.
orally after crops are laid by, and
the farmer is not greatly incon-
venienced thereby. We have
also known it to refrain from
raining for several weeks at a
time, but that is usually to
facilitate cotton picking in the
fall.

'Many people seem to forget that

mIrable qualities? When he was a
boy? Let US see how a boy of ten
years gets up in the morning, works,
plays, stud es, and we will tell you
Just what kind of man he will make.
The boy that is too late at breakfast,
late at school, stands poor chance
to be a prompt man. The boy who
neglects his duties, be he ever so
small, and then excuses himself by
saying, Il forgot: I didn't think, ;"
will never be reliable man, and the
boy who finds pleasure in the suffer-
ing of weaker things will never be
noble, generous kind mana gentle

THE Sinner Gazette says:
-fThe little gale of wind which
preceded the rain Friday night
brought in millions of grasshop-
pers of the variety known in
Kansas, Colorado and the Indian
territory, where they have in
time past played havoc with the
growing crops. They have long,
mottled wings and can fly for
hundreds of miles before the
wind. Saturday morning they
were everywhere and attracted a
good deal of attention. When
they came in Friday night it was
like hail striking against the
houses. F"

THE Thurston rifles, Omaha S
crack military company, are now
drilling for the interstate drill at
San Antonio, Tex, where they
will make a determined effort to
retain the Galveston cup. The
cup represents the championship
of the United States, and it was
won by the rifles two years ago.
Under the rules governing the
possession of the trophy the rifles
are now compelled to relinquish
the honor or again enter into
competition for the cup. They
have decided to enter the contest
and are confident that they will
again win the championship and
the trophy. The company will
drill with forty men, twenty mine
of whom were in the Memphis
prize team. The remaining men
will be picked from recruits and
Captain Foye, who succeeded
Captain Scharff, expects to go to
the Texas drill with the finest
team in the country.

A SICK WOMAN.
Should Consult the Best Physician
Possible.

Possible.
If all the sick mothers, invalid
daughters and diseased sisters in
this broad land would write to
DR.. Hartman when failing to find
relief elsewhere, no pen could
describe the benefit that would
follow. There are so many
women, especially marie d
women, who drag themselves
YEARLY around from year to
year without any particular dis
ease, and yet miserable beyond
description. They ache and
tremble and throb, growing more
nervous, tired and debilitated
every day. For this class of
sufferers Pe-ru-na is the most
perfect remedy in existence. 1t
relieves, it soothes, it quiets, it
strengthens, and no tired, over
worked woman in the land should
be without Pe-ru-na in the house
for a single day.
Those wishing a complete des-
cription of female diseases, their
causes and cures, should send
their address to The Pe-ru-na
Drug Manufacturing Company,
Columbus, Ohio, for free copy
of 'Facts and Faces" book
showing what DR.. Hartman's free
treatment has done for a multi
tude of invalid women.

Late Friday evening the clouds
made a show as if it woul d
rain but it did not, but the wind
blew hard and Rose Hill again
caught the worst Of it. A lumber
shed belonging to Wadley & Scott
was blown down, carrying with it
several telephone wires, Mr.. Brown
soon had them in good shape.
