MELONS FROM TEXAS.
Carloads of the Fruit Being Shipped
North

The Galveston News says: Water
melon shipping by the car load began
on the Gulf & Interstate Saturday, and
since that time two cars a day have
been forwarded. The shipments are
being made to Minneapolis, Little Rock,
st. Paul and Ell PasO. 1t is expected
that shipments by the train load will
soon be in order. The Gulf & Inter
state people say that the peninsula has
been largely planted to watermelons.
Mr.. W. G. Patton at Patton station
has a patch of 300 acres, which is said
to be about the largest in the United
States, and there are a number Of
smaller patches in the vicinity. The
aggregate shipments during the season
viii probably he 100 cars or more if a
good rain falls soon. Prices are very
satisfactory, about $11 per 100 at Pat
toms. Prior to the car load shipments
about 5000 melons had been sent to
Houston by boat and probably as
many more to Galveston.

FAST FREIGHT RECORD.
Quick Work on the Rio Grande West
ern Road

Denver, June 19.-The Rio Grande
Western and Colorado Midland, in a
grand squirt, broke all records of fast
freight service in this region yesterday
when Is cars of cattle were shipped
from Pleasant Valley Junction to this
city in IS hours and 35 minutes.
The custom heretofore has been to
give the cattle one day for feed and
rest making the total length of the
trip about three days.
The new departure may result in
heavy shipments of stock to this city.
The train left the junction, which is To-
Gated SO miles from Salt Lake, at 5
o'clock Tuesday evening, and reached
Denver at 7:35 "Wednesday night.

take the bull by the horns and help
themselves. 1t is impossible for the
farmers of Kansas to receive such re-
turns from their labor as is their due
until there is a radical reduction in
the present freight rates.
Let the people of Kansas and the
central west continue the battle until
success crowns their efforts. Let the
western transportation convention at
Omaha be large in numbers and pro-
life in enthusiasm and energy, and
with the acquiring OF just and reason
able rates to tide water, the state of
Kansas will take her true place in the
sisterhood of states"

SHOULD MAKE A BLUFF.
That is the Course Advised for Spain
by Havana Newspapers.


Havana, June 19.-La Lucia, in an en-
ergetic editorial the Cuban policy of
Senior Canovas says:
CUBA will not be sold nor ceded neith-
er will her annexation to any other nation
be allowed. Countries are not sold like
estates. Higher and priceless interests
exist The mother does not sell her
child She may be compelled to leave or
abandon it after making all sacrifices to
save it and keep it in her own possession.
In such a struggle it is glorious to sue
coed, but in failure there is no dishonor.
The Cuban problem is a family affair 1t
is like a lawsuit against a son or a son
against a father.
THE pure Spanish race is struggling
against itself. Today the contestants are
reeonciled; tomorrow they kill one an
other. Today they share their sufferings
tomorrow they pardon one another"
A morning newspaper which is the or
gan of the Spanish admiralty here, CON
tains an editorial strongly censuring' the
American government for retaining Con-
sui General Lee, who ''unworthily fills a
high position of almost diplomatic rank
It says he must surely be retained, be-
cause he has the fun approval of the
government, though he is opposed to it in
politics. The paper adds: The Wash
ington cabinet should appoint as consul
some prominent American of culture and
marked diplomatic gifts, who at a time
of political outbreak would show himself
capable of an impartial position
In conclusion it says the moment has
arrived when Spain should resolve to
make no more concessions to the United
States, but to force the Americans to I'M
derstand that the Spaniards will yield to
no dishonorabIe demands whatever may
be the cause.

The Drowned Bow.

The boy who was drowned near
the Wolff packing house yesterday aft
ernoon was Willie Towner, who lived
with his grandmother, Mrs. John
O'Brien, at 425 Kansas avenue The
identity of the boy was established only
after two or three hours hard work by
Sergeant Tim Donovan. When the
body was found and brought out upon
the bank a number of boys and men
declared that it was that of August
Hanson and his father, who is en-
ployed in the Santa Fe shops, was sent
for. He arrived about $3.50, but said
the body was not that of his son. Some
one then identified the body as that Of
Willie Tucker, whose parents live on
Sixth street, but this proved an error,
and only after several hours was it
proven beyond question that the body
was that of Willie Towner

FOUR BOXES DID IT.
Remarkable Success of a New Pile
Cure.

People who have suffered for years or
months from the pain and Inconvenience
of that common disorder, piles, will look
with skepticism upon the claims of the
makers of the new discovery for cure Of
all forms of piles, known under the name
of Pyramid Pile Cure nevertheless the
extraordinary cures performed by this
remedy are such as to warrant the inVes-
tfgation of any sufferer. AS a case in
point the following letter speaks for it
self:
Mr. Henry Thomas of sub-station No. s.
Hosack Ave, Columbus. Ohio, writes as
follows:
Pyramid Drug Co.;
C4entlemen-I want you to use my name
if it will be of any use TO you. 1 was so
bad with the piles that 1 lost work an
that account. Nothing did me any good.
Dread in Cincinnati of the many cures Of
piles by the Pyramid Pile Cure and went
to a drug store and asked for it. The
drug clerk told me he had something else
that he thought was better, but I told
him I wanted to try the Pyramid first.
The first box helped me so much that
tried another and then to complete the
cure used two more boxes making four in
all I am now completely cured. Have
not a trace of piles and had suffered for
four years with the worst form Of pro-
trudng piles.
1 suffered death from piles but have
found the Pyramid Pile Cure to be just
represented. 1 have recommended it to
several of my friends and 1 am thankful
to be able to write you what good the
remedy has done for me.
Physicians recommend the Pyramid Pile
Cure because it contains no opium, co.
caine, or mineral poison of any kind and
because it is so safe and pleasant to use.
being painless and applied at night. The
patient is cured in a surprisingly short
time with no inconvenience whatever.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by drug
gists at 80 cents per package, and if there
is any constipation it is well to use the
Pyramid Pills at the same time with the
Pile Cure, as constipation is very often
the cause of piles and the pills effectually
remove the costive condition Price of
pills is % cents per package.

piles; by mail free.
