Mr.. A. G. Thomas, of Marysville,
Tex, has found q more valuable dis
cevery than has yet been in the Klon-
dixie. For years he suffered untold
agony from consumption, accompanied
by hemorrhages; and was absolutely
cured by DR.. Kings New Discovery
for Consumption, Coughs and Colds.
He declares that gold is of little value
in comparison with this marvellous
cure; would have it, even if it cost
hundred dollars a bottle. Asthma,

BILE to uncouple the Pullman and leave
Kansas street open and it should be

The Denver g. Rio Grande train ar
! rived last night from the north, but 1t
was stated this morning that the wreck
would be all cleared up by this noon SO
that the delayed south bound train
ought to arrive on time tonight. With
f1anger two engines and two box cars
turned over on their backs, and the
wind blowing "to beat time" it was
anything but easy work to clear the
right of way, especially seeing that the
accident was partly in cut. En-

About one year ago Conductor
George, of the Mexican Central, en-
tered house near Chopin hall and left
his bicycle near the fence.
It WAS raining at the time
and when Mr.. George came
out OF the house his bicycle was gone.
He reported the matter to the police
and a search was instituted but with
out avail. Time gassed on and Mr..
George concluded to but another wheel
which he did. The other day he was
describing his wheel to friend and
telling how mysteriously it had disap-
peared when the friend spoke up and
told him that wheel answering that
description was in the basement of the
Chopin hall. Mr.. George 1nvestig ated
the matter and to his great surprise,
found his long-lost bicycle. 1t is sup
posed that some one placed it in there
out of the rain and neglected to tell
the owner of where it had been placed.
The construction work on the Ell Pa
so and North eastern has already given
an impetus to the mining work around
White Oaks. Nogal and Bonito
camps. With cheap transpota |
ton for ores Ethst the rail- |
way will afford, there are many lead,
silver, copper and gold prospects in
that region that will pay from the day
the product can be shipped by rail to
the Ell Faso shelters. The people of
that country have been waiting
for years to realize on mining
that are paying propositions
but freight by wagon has necessarily |
been too high to admit of proftably
them. More assessment and
development work is now going on
than for years past, and many pros
pectors are looking over the hills that
undoubtedly contain many mines equal
to those already discovered.-Sacra-

INSURANCE RATES COME DOWN.
Sweeping Reduction Ordered by
the St. Louis Board of Under
writers

ST. Louis is to have cheaper fire in
surance. The local board of under
| writer's, says the Globe Democrat. has
| decided upon the step, and the change
will become effective to-day.
The board of underwriters held an
| to dispose of business unfinished from
the monthly meeting held last Tues
day. Pre- sident J. A Waterworth
presided, and it WAS upon his recon-
mendatiOn that the change in rates
was made. The vote on the PROPOSE
tion was close, in view of the fact that
it took a two thirds majority of those
present to carry it, but 1t went
| through.
Beginning today all minimum tariff
rates will drop 33b per cent. This in
tents, on small stores and their stocks,
on school buildings, churches, con-
vents and asylums. The reduction in
other rates is 10 per cent.
Last Tuesday tornado insurance was
| reduced 20 per cent, except on theaters,
cOliseums and other buildings of lik Q
character, and after today rates all
around will be as low or lower than
they were before the increase, five or
six years ago. AT that time minimum
tariff rates we're raised so per cent and
other rates 20 per cent. In the latter
case the increase was taken off some
time ago, making the rates on large
business property lower than they
ever we're before.
There were forty members of the
board present at yesterdays meeting.
The total membership Is sixty-five.
The vote necessary to carry the pro-
posals submitted by President Water
worth was secured only after hard
fight, and the margin was too email to
boast about. The fight against the
was carried on in the most
vigorous manner, and the result, it is
said, was really surprise to many of
the members.
Among fire insurance men last night
it was freely predicted that the action
Of the meeting would result in many
from the board of under
writer's. Many of the companies claim |
they have made no money in the past |
lew years on the ST. Louis basis, and |
that As per cent of the amount of their
premiums has been eaten up by actual
expense. 1t is possible that the dis
will spread, but those who
avor the reduction hope to be able to
check it.
In many instances the reduction, it
s claimed, will have disastrous effect
IN the agents working on a com mis-
ion, and it is anticipated that they
will put upa desperate fight to have
he action of the board reconsidered.
Nearly all of the opposition, aside
rom the commission agents, comes
rom the mutual companies.
