WAS BADLY BEATEN.
The Bill for Funding the Debts
of the Pacific Railroad.
Galveston News.

OdlfSslOn news.
Washington. D. c., Jan. II.
The funding bill Of the Paci-
flc roads was beaten badly to-
day. The bill had for its OBJ
ject the funding of the debt the
government at a lower rate OF
interest and the extension OF
time in which the owners would
have to pay the full debt.
There has been much excite
ment over the matter, and
nearly every lobbyist in the
city was employed in the case.
This evening it is given out
that the defeat was due to a
quiet tip from the white house
that Mr.. Cleveland wanted the
defeat of the bill, because he
wanted a foreclosure of the
government lien on the pro-
perty. 1t is said that the presi
dent has assurance already
that when the government liens
are foreclosed the government
can get for the roads all the
money it has advanced on them
and be set even all around. 1t
is certain that this was whisper
ed around the house just be-
fore the vote was taken, and it
had big effect on that vote.
Now that the bill is beaten, the
next step will be to foreclose
by the government. The bill
was not beaten on a vote on
IT, but on a vote to pass it to
third reading. Powers Of Yer
mont who had it in charge, ex
pected when the vote to pass
it to a third reading had been
had, that he would then offer
to recon1mit it for such changes
as he thought would make it
more popular. He saw that
It could not go through in the
shape he had presented it and
was going to make a last effort
to save it. But when the vote
was counted on the motion to
put it on its third reading the
I'LL was dead. He then tried
to get it recommitted after this
vote, but the objection was
made that his motion came too
late. Reed said this was new
question and he would have
TO take it under consideration.
But the measure is laid out
and cold. If the assurances
that Cleveland is said to have
for bids for the roads when
they are sold under foreclosure
are substantial, then one of the
greatest fights between great
capital is sure to come off for
Huntington is not the man to
have his feet swiped from un-
der him without a fight of the
strongest kind.

From no Era, Bradford. Pa.

Several months ago, Miss Corn Wotrous,
the sixteen-year-old daughter Of Mr.. I. G..
Watrous, a locomotive fireman, Of 81 Clarion

nervous disorder which threatened 10 end
her life. The first symptom of the ailmcnt
was q loss Of appetite. For some little time
Miss Watrous had no desire 90 eat and come
planned Of a feeling of extreme lassitudc.
This WAS followed by severe pains in the
head For three weeks the young lady was
nearly crazed with o terrible headache and
nothing could be procured 10 give her relief
Finally, after trying numerous remedies
q physician was called and began treating
the patient. He said the trouble was
caused by impoverished blood, but after
several weeks Of his treatment the young
lady's condition had not improved and the
parents decided to procure the services of
another physician. In the meantime Miss
Watrous' nervousness had increased, the
pains in her head had grown more severe
and the sufferers parents had almost given
up hope of her recovery.
1T was at this time that Mr.. Watr0us heard
Of DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
Ue found that the pills were highly recon-
mepded for nervous disorders and concluded
to give them a trial A box of the pills was
purchased and before they had all been taken
there was q marked improvement i'm the
girls condition. Aller a half dozen boxes
had been used, the young lady's appetite had
returned, the pain in her head had ceased

THIN PEOPLE.
How the weight May be increased in
Healthfm Natural Manner.

How the weight May be Increased in a
Healthfm Natural Manner.
All reople who are thin are not necessarily
so from disease. it is natural for some to be
thin. and no amount of treatment would add
an iota to their weight, but the great majority
of people are thin because their digestion is
not perfect, their stomachs do not thoroughly
digest nesh-forming foods, they may not
have chronic dyspepsia, but their digestion is
not vigorous enough to assimilate the food
necessary for robust health aud to keep up
their weight.
For all such, the new discovery for dys-
pepsia and Indigestion comesas a most well
come addition to the list Of meritorous
remedies. The new discovery reforred to is
stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, which is not only
pleasant and certain cure for Indigestion,
but possesses the peculiar power of digesting
flesh forming foods like meat, eggs and
similar ordinary foods, so that the increase in
weight is perfectly natural process. One
grain Of the digestive principle in Stuart's
Dyspcpsiq Tablets viii digest 3, 900 grains of
nesh-forming food. Dr. Jeunison recently
stated that he depends altogether upon these
tablets for the cure of dyspepsia and stomach
troubles and that they not only cure the in
digestion, but in every case a gratifying in-
crease in weight was noticed, not fat, but the
proper amount Of flesh for health and
symmetry Dr. Harlandson speaks highly Of
the tablets, not only because they build up
flesh and cure indigestion, but they are
absolutely safe and harmless, no matter what
the condition of the stomach and are
excellent not only for the ordinary dyspeptic,
but for invalids and children.
Stuarts's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by all
druggists at Scots per package and a trial
will convince anyone of their merits.

The chart is mounted as wall map, and
is 10 feet 3 inches by feet inches IN eI-
tent. There are rollers at top and bottom,
with tape at the sides to strengthen 1t. The
chart is printed in cOlors, and contains more
things than can be enumerated here 1t
shows, in pictorial way, all the Presidents
and their Cabinets, from Washington to Nc
Kinley, in chronological order; the history of
the Government by Congresses; a history of
each Administration comparative statement
of debts, revenues and expenditures; the
issues of all political parties at various
periods; the political complexion of every
Congress; the naval tonnage of all nations;
the standing armies of every nation; the
area and population of all the States and
Territories brief history of the Worlds
Columbian Exposition; chronological dis
coveries, explorations, inventions, and I'M
portant events, and the area and population
of foreign countries as compared with the
United States.
To crown all, on the back Of the chart is
printed, in colors, a complete map of the
United States, showing location of every
railroad, city, town, river, lake, and mount
ain-cbain in the country.
In fact, this chart and map combined en-.
abIes a man to roll up aud carry in one hand
as much historical information about this
United States and the world at large as is
contained in the vast Library of Congress,
with its million books.
