In these columns 1t has been fire.
quently stated that 1t was unworthy Of
belief that the trainmen Of the west
bound passenger train, which was in
che EmpOrla wreck, would run by a red
light. This opinion seems to be shared
by ex-Speaker LObdell, who says in his
Kansas City Tribune:
Conductor Alex Ferguson, Of the
Santa Fe, was made the 'scapegOat' for
the road in the matter of the Lang
wreck, and this In the face Of the fact
that the COroner's jury at EmpOria had
fixed the responsibility where it be-
lOnged, on Train Dispatcher King, whose
Carelessness in relying on the pOssi-
bllity Of stopping through train at q
flag station anybody can see. Railroads
have a way Of doing those things which
leave 1t small wonder that there Is
general prejudice against them. No
man who knows Alex Ferguson, not even

One OF the most deeply interesting and
truly eduCative books ever written Is
"The Peoples Common Sense Medical
Adviser" by DR.. r. v. Pierce, Chief Con-
sulting Physician of the Invalid's Hotel
and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y.
This splendid volume of 1908 pages, in
cludes ninety pages on the subject Of
diseases peculiar to women with direC-
tiOns for hOme-treatment, rendering un-
necessary the embarrassing "examina-
tiOns," and generally useless local treat
ment," so dreaded by modest women.
The book contains the most cOmprehen-
slYe explanation Of human physiology
and the rational principles of hygiene
ever published. Illustrated with over
800 engravings-a complete medical IL
brary in one volume. No other medical
book in the English language ever had
such an enormous sale. Six hundred
and eighty thousand copies were sold at
$3.50 each. DR.. Pierce is now distrib-
uting new free edition Of half mil
lion copies. A copy will be sent abs0-
lutely free to anyone who will send to
the Worlds Dispensary Medical AssOCi-
alton, Buffalo, N. Y, 81 1-cent stamps
to pay cost Of mailing only. The pres
ent edition is in all respects the same
as that sold at $3.50 except only that 1t

with the statutes and microscopic care
for details, and exactness of statement,

yesterday and showed up splendidly.
Either Colliflower or Drinkwater will

Shortstop Fred Raymer is here, and
is a star of the first magnitude. He
may go to Fort Worth. Sorry to lose
him, but we are satisfied with what
we've got.
A franchise with a good ball team
in San Antonio is worth $4,000, and

this season.
The boys ought to have sweaters or
long coats to match the uniforms. Ev-
cry other team has them and San
Antonio ought not be behind. Now
our boys have to use any old sweater
| they've got.
Mike O'Connor says that he dream
ed Fitz would whip Colbett in four
teen rounds and that Austin would
take two of the first three games. Let
us hope that Sundays game will not be
one of them.
The most pleasant feature about the
Bronchos is that supreme harmony
prevails among the players, which is
more than we could say of any team
we have ever had before. This is half
the game alone.
1t is hoped that the grounds will re-
ceive good attention this year. A
water plug ought to be put in the park
so that the entire field could be flood
ed every evening after a game, there
by putting the grounds in good condi-
ton for the following day.
| Manager O'Connor is very strict
with his men and if they don't do as
the "old man" says they are sure tc
hear from him. They know, however
that it is for their own good, and Mike
never tells them to do anything thai
| he wouldn't do himself. O'Connor is
certainly one great manager.
