That is What Texas Il.

The St. Louis Globe-Democrat
say: ga few companies of Texas
rangers are to be recruited by the
government under the name of
'immunes, to be used for the initial
work in Cuba. The immunes are
expected to be fever. proof, fire
proof and bullet proof, and there
is no doubt of the ability OF the
Texans to meet all the terms of the
advertisement. And we wish to
add that Texas troops made a good
name in the last war, and a splen-
did turn when they whipped Mexi-
co, and also when they cleaned up
the Indians and we know they will
keep up the ''rep" previously made
if they only get a chance at the
enemy.

Of to the War.

Captain W. H. Haywood, failing
to get his company into the Texas
Volunteer Guards, went to Little
Rock on Thursday and rendered his
company 60 the governor, as Ark
ansas troops which was accepted,
and he wired back to the officers
here to 90 ahead and recruit the
company ap to 125 men if possible.
He will return today and hopes to
be able to leave here on Monday
With a full company. We think he
will not be disappointed as many of
our young men are anxious to try
soldier life and to get a
taste of real army hardship. We
shall compliment all who volunteer,
for we have some good material
here, Just the kind that make good
soldiers and can stand the fatigues
of a soldiers life.

A SOCIETY SUCCESS.
The Park Entertainment Brought
Out the Cream Of sooietydom.

The entertainment given under
the auspices Of Mesdames Paul
Jones, ]. T. Roiboro, W. T. Hud-
gins, and other ladies heretofore
mentioned, at Spring Lake Park,
for the purpose Of raising funds to
purchase park grounds and to
beautify the same, came of Friday
night as advertised.
The reporter had the pleasure of
being a guest of honor of the ladies
managing the affair and he wishes
TO return his thanks for courtesies
extended and to assure the ladies
that his best wishes are offered Tor
the final success Of their uddertak-
ing.
Ii is true the night had a frosty
feeling" but the big tull moon had
on It's best silver suit" and made
liz an ideal one, barring the
chilly atmosphere, for such an
occasion, and many ventured out
and lent their charms to the occa-
sion.
There we're fifty odd couples on
the floor at one time, gliding swiftly
over the floor in the dance, and as
many couples ranged around the
pavilion on the benches as specta-
tors.
McUann's Orchestra made the
music, and it was played in ryth-
metical time, and the noise of the
feet of the dancers showed that
unison of time aud sound prevailed.
The ice cream supper and cake
we're served in the gatekeeper's
lodge, and right well did the ladies
in charge see that no one was slight
ed in being waited on.
The only thing that we heard of
to mar the pleasure of the occasion
was the theft of big iced cake by
some one, and the lady managers
seemed grieved over its loss, as it
was decorated for a centre piece
and had consumed time and labor
and money in its construction. The
loss, however, did not curtail any
ones allowance for the ladies had
paovided well for the crowd.
We learned while talking to one
of the most enthusiastic workers in
the park enterprise, that the ladies
who were engaged in the movement
would meet some time soon and
elect a set of officers and a directory
to manage future entertainments
for the raising of funds.
The young men should sanction
these entertainments by their con-
tinued patronage, for they not only
get to dance at a reduced cost 90
cents, but a lunch besides, is far
below the cost of those they have
themselves where they have to pay
for music and hall both.
| We learn that after all expenses
were paid, the sum realized on the
entertainment amounted TO $35.

The fierce attacks on England
for its friendship for the United
States which the Madrid newspa-
pers are making furnish fine il
lustration of the malignity and stu
pidity of the average Spaniard.
These outbreaks are calculated to
infame the excitable Spaniards to
commit some piece of folly in Spain
or on the ocean against England
which will bring the heavy hand of
that nation down on the Madrid
madmen.

Deafness cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is caused by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of
the mucous lining of the eustachian
tube. When this tube is inhamed
you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirelY closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inhamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir

International Arbitration.

At the Geneva Conference to
arrange international disputes there
was strenuous advocacy on the part
of the United States and other
powers in favor of the settlement
of national differences as to bound
arises, port custom duties, &C., by
an international court and not by
the bloody arbitrament of war.
But like many subjects, reasonable
enough in their origin, it has died
out of mems minds. But there is a
theme of comment, and that is the
incompatible fine effects of Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters in cases of
dyspepsia. Nor does the world and
his wife comment less favorably on
the excellent effects of the Bitters
in cases of chills and fever, rheuma-
tism, nervous and kidney complaints
and constipation.

RURAL MAILS

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The benefits
derived from the extension of the rural
free delivery of mail matter, it is ex-
pected, will be increased as soon as au
thority can be obtained from congress
on the subject. At the request of the
house postoffice committee, First AS
sistant Postmaster General Heath is
preparing an amendment to the service
appropriation bill, giving to carriers in
rural districts authority to receive cash
and obtain money orders for patrons and
to receipt for and deliver registered let
tiers.
This additional duty can be readily
performed by the carriers, who will, if
the scheme is put in operation, become
travelling postoffices." Country people.
therefore, will have nearly all the ben
efits enjoyed by residents of the city in
this regard, as the carriers now are per-
mitted to carry postal cards and
stamped envelopes for sale. Should the
proposition work well, the department
will be enabled to abolish many of the
smaller postoffices along the star routes.

LUETGERT's DEFENSE
Reward Offered for the Production of
the Victim

CHICAGO, Jan. BIN the Luetgert
wife murder trial today Lawyer Har-
mon, for the defense, entered a motion
that the case be taken from the jury and
Luetgert released on the ground that
the brief session of court on New Years
day was illegal. The motion was at
once overruled by Judge Gary. No evil
dence was taken at Saturdays session,
court having been adjourned as soon as
the defense objected to the trial pro-
ceeding on that day.
Police Inspector Setback has made a
verbal offer of $4,000 in improved real
estate to any person producing Mrs.
Luetgert, dead or alive. Attorney Har-
mon, on the defense, has complained
that he is only prevented from pro-
ducing Mrs. Luetgert by a lack of
funds, and Inspector Schaak, it is said,
chose this method of rejoiner. He also
hopes thus to put quietus on the re-
ports from various parts of the country
that Mrs. Luetgert has been discovered.

CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-The old fight be-

western roads over the question of diff

the recent agreement between the
western roads and the ocean steamship
lines was reached, 1t was understood
that all differentials should be with
drawn at New York ana Boston. The
Canadian Pacific has, however, been
applying its differentials on all business
arriving at the Canadian ports, and the
western roads have found this to be a
disturber of their rates, and they are
now anxious to have the Canadian Pa
cific pull out its differentials, and that
road refuses to do anything of the kind.
