1.-THE GIEUINK1PUS OF TIE
VEST

One hundred years ago today the
Nation was called upon TO mourn
the death OF its first president. An
eyentfuI century has passed since
onr great chief wss called to his
reward, and it seems as if, in that
time, the Nation had lost some of
the ideals which were symbolized
IN the life of that pure and noble
man. Certain it rs that men have
sat in his place who we're not so
worthy, and whose motives were
not so pure as his. Yet, though We
may have strayed from the paths
which he would have shown us,
still is the name of Waskingt, n
enshrined in the hearts of his
countrymen, as the embodiment of
greatness both Of mind and of
Soul. and though men may not
cherish as high ideals today as did
those men who, with Washington,
were the founders and builders Of
the republic, yet all rejoice that in
him We may worship not only the
greatness of the military commando
er and of the statesman, but also
that his life was clean and his
heart pure, that thought of self
was ever secondary with him. Men
admire purity and nobility, though
they possess it not themselves, and
eli Americans rejoice today that
tley may say Of the Father of his
Country, not only that he was "flst
In war, first in peace, and first Il
the hearts of his countrymeD," bat
that he was the greatest OF all the
great, for all others who have been
leaders of men and rulers Of ma
tions were astuated by ambition,
whereas he had never thought of
self. His was the one name to an
swer the question of England
great bard who asked:
"Where may the wearied eve repose
When gazing on the great,
Where neither guilty gIery glows
Nor self-exalting states'

earth for one who might be great |
and yet unselfsh, until he found

The Steamer Lawrence Purchased

Gaveston. Tex. Dec. 10,-Ths
steamer Lawrence which was
purchased by the Corpus Christi

those two ports, has be-. refused
Z license to engage in the east

rivers and lakes and bays she

her for sea work being her low

cargo her main deck would be

would have TO follow in the trade
for which she was purchased, that
deck would be under water most
of the time.
There was a meeting of the
Galveston stockholders in the

night, to whom the refusal Of

Still More Counterfeiting.

The Secret Service has unearthed
 another band of counterfeiters and se- cured large quantity of bogus bills, which are so cleverly executed that
 the average person would never sus- pect them of being spurious. Things of great value are always selected by counterfeiters for imitation, notably the celebrated Hostetter's Stomach
 Bitters, which has many imitators but no equals for indigestion, dyspepsia, constipation, nervousness and general debility. The Bitters sets things right in the stomach, and when the stomach is in good order it makes good blood and plenty of it. In this manner the Bitters get at the seat of strength and vitality, and restore vigor to the weak and facilitated. Beware of counterfeits when buying.

A STRINGENT FOOD LAW.
Prohibits the Use of Arsenic or Alum
 iii all Articles OfDiet.

The law enacted by the Missouri legislature, copy of which was re- gently published in our columns, and which prohibits the manufacture or sale of any article intended for food or to be used in the preparation Of food, which contains alum, arsenic, am monia, etc., places that state in the lead in the matter of sanitary legisla- ton.
 Laws restricting the use of alum in bread have been in force in England, Germany and France for many years. In this country, in Minnesota, Wis consin, Michigan, Ono, Kentucky and several other states, direct legislation in reference to he sale of alum baking powders has also been effected. In several of these states their sale is pro- hibited unless they are branded to show that they contain alum, and in the District of Coluu bia, under the laws of Congress, the sale of bread con- taining alum has been made illegal.
 Following are the names of some of the brands of baking powder sold in this vicinity which are shown by re cent analysis to contain alum. House. keepers and grocers should cut the list out and keep it for reference:
 BAKING POWDERS CONTAINING ALUM. K. e. ---------------Contain Alum. U. C.|

 Mani. by Pacific Mig. Co.,, Los Angeles. Contains Alum.
 Mani. by Calumet Baking Powder Co.,, Chicago.
 The housekeeper should bear ill mind that alum makes 9 cheap baking powder. It costs but two cents pound while cream of tartar costs thirty. The quality of the powder is therefore usually indicated by the price.
