RINDORA HOT SPRINGS.
Famous Springs Near Maria and Their
Wonderful Curative Powers.

The party of railroad boys, under
the leadership of Captain G. NJ. Will
son. of Sanderson, that left here on
the Bird for the Hot Spring, just across
the river, in Mexico, returned GA We'd
nesdsy evening last. The New Era
man made it point to catch the boys
before the train came to take them
away, and each and every one express
ed themselves as very highly pleased
with the trip, and more especially with
the results of their search for relief
from their different troubles. They
were at the springs eighteen days, aud
the u.s. of the water seems to have
proven all that has been claimed in re-
gard to It's cura i've powers.
Mr.. Louis kietfer, OF Del Rio, says
he has been atfl cted with rheumatism
for fifteen years, and part of the time
he was confined to his bed. After the
use of the water for Is days he feels as
sound and well as he ever did in his
life. All rheumatism seems to have
passed away.
Mr.. E. NJ. Mountjoy, another of The
party aad a freight conductor between
San Antonio and Del Rio, has hereto
fore been great sufferer, and was laid
I'D for two months last winter. He says
| that for the first time in ten years all
his rheumatic pains have disappeared,
and he is feeling entirely free from
them. MIR. Mountjoy cannot say
enough in praise of the springs.
Mr.. Bill Pennman, fireman runuing
between SandersOn and San Antonio,
| has been affected with chronic catarrh
and for the first time in many years he
saws he feels entirely relieved.
| Mr.. f b. Baxter, engineer, running
between San Antonio and Houston, also

G. 2. Huntington, president OF the
Southern Pacific has returned from a
three months tradscOntinental trip,
during which he made an Inspection OF
the properties in which he is interest
ed. He said recently: MY trip to
the Pacific coast was the first in two
years, and l find things generally in
good condition. The Southern Pacific
is doing all that can be expected, and
we are satisfied with its operations.
All through the west aud far west bust
ness is picking up. There is a general
lifting of the depression in trade, and
it seems TO me that the outlook is de-
cidedly encouraging. L went TO Call
fornia via the southern routes, and re-
turned via Portland, the Northern Pa
cific, Oregon railway and Great
Northern. The railway situation in
the west is improving, and. although
there has been much agrarian legisla-
ton. people are beginning to awaken to
tue fact that the railroads should be
protected.
LAS TO the supreme court decision in
the transmfssOuri case, L was not at all
disturbed by it. | Was in California
when il was rendered, but [ was, and l
am, satisfied that it would work out al
ri ght OF course. 1t was of the highest
importance to the railroads, but | am
strong in the belief thai the railroads
viii not suffer IN the long run. L am
in favor OF pooling. but l favor more
strongly joint ownership in the rail-
roads Of the country. II all the rail-
roads were placed under joint owner
ship, | am satisfied that rates could be
reduced at least 5 per cent, and di-
videuds paid on stock upon which re-
urn was never realized. Still, con-
gress should legalize pooling. 1t is
absolutely essential to the business
prosperity of the country. 1t is neces-
sary for the maintauce OF rates, and
when the people come to understand,
they will grant it.
MIR Huntington confirmed that an Of
fer had been made for the GalvestoD
La Porte and Houston, and added,
I'VE made an exchange of one of our
lines with the Atchison for one OF
theirs. 1t was to our lmutual interest,
although the Atchison may be said to
have received the better part of the
bargain"

treatment they had received from all
with whom they had met in Preside
county.
These springs are located about
sevcnty-hve miles from Maria, and hi
teen N les from RuidCsa, and two and
ore half miles from the Rio Grande
river. They have "a reputation for
the + remarkable curative powers ever
since the settlement of this country,
and if there could be any arrangement
made with the Mexican government to
put the control into private hands, so
a. to insure the erection of comfortable
quarters for invalids, these springs
would undoubtedly soon become fam
Gus resort.
AS it is now parties going there have
to furnish their own camp equip age
aud supplies. The general manager
of this expedition, the big hearted
duke of Sandersor, says he expects to
see st II larger party organized among
the railroad men for June or July, as
the present trip has proven to be so
eminently satisfactory to all concerned
Charley says he believes the springs
are the best mineral springs in the
world. He says he is mighty glad he
was there, because now he can prove
an salkali'' on the Lozier train rob-
berry.
Eggs and chickens are to be bought
from the Mexicans at the springs at
every reasonable prices. Parties can
be accommodated here at very short
notice with good transportation and
careful drivers. This paper will take
pleasure in giving any further infor-
nation in our power to parties deslr-
ing to take advantage of the medicinal
virtues of these wonderful healing

Tired of Paying Pullman Salaries.

,
Time was when people flushed with
money were not only trave 'ers but
lavish in payment of all personal SER
vices rendered to them en- route. They
suDDOrted the Pullman car pOrtsr, who
eked out scant wages paid him by the
sleeping car company with generous
tips from travellers.
Times have changed. People are
not travelling much for pleasure, and
there is not sufficient business to take
them away in great numbers. When
they do 90 on business they are so full
of it that they think they have paid
sufficiently for a nights lodging when
they have deposited 81 with the Pull
man company. In hotel that calls
for the service of the establishment.
Travellers no longer throw their silver
dollars at negro porter. They notice
that the Pullman company pay an 8
per cent dividend upon large volume
of stock, and they are of the opinion
not be in the slightest diminished if
the management properly compensated
porters, who complain in petitioning
for proper pay that they are at once
porter, conductor and waiter.
The Pullman servants ought not to
be objects of charity. The company is
a abundant y able to pay its people llv-
ing wages. 1t certainly exacts large
COMPENSATION for its bed rooms on
wheels. The cost of the hambermaid
ought to be upon the company. The
negroes who are patitioning for proper
will have sympathy from
the travelling public that is learning
hard necessity to withdraw
it's tips to the sleeping car porter,
which. under all the circumstances of
undercomp ton, are tips to the men
cant Pullman company.
