One of the New York papers in pub

Butler and his young bride traversing
the streets of Ell Paso in a fashionable
turn out. After a time, however,
Butler failed to appear and his wife
alone was to be seen. His conditi on
had become more serious, and reports
said the invalid was unable to leave his
room.
The general public became aware a
little over a week ago that Mr.. But
ler's health was in q critical condition.
This unpleasant fact was brought out
when r. G. Ball sued the invalid for
commissions alleged to be due him for
professional services.
Butler was unable then to appear in
court and his evidence was given in the
form of deposition which was taken
at his bedside.
In making his argument that day
Judge Coldwell, attorney for the
defendant, made the fact clear to the
jury and the spectators present that
Butler was even then dying man and
that his wife was practically a widow.
The sympathy of the jury was moved
and the verdict was against Ball.

Nearly everybody you meet will re

II they have weak lungs. All seem to
have a solid faith in the ~soundness Of
their own breathing machine. In cases
Of trouble they will admit there IS a

or even "a spell OF asthma" but as to
weak or unsound lungs, never, NEVER.
Even the poor consumptive. who scarce
Iy speaks without coughing, whose
cheeks are wasted, hollow and bear the
hectic flush OF doom, will assure you
with glistening eyes that his cold is on
the mend and he will be all right when

1t is simply terrible to think how far
we may be guilty by our indifference to
the lung troubles OF these near and dear

may hug a delusion as to our w health
that we only get rid OF when life itself
must pay the forfeit.
Nobody can afford to think lightly
of lung troubles. Nobody can afford TO
be mistaken about their possible dan

Another Quarry Accident.

Mr.. George II. Washington, while
working at the stone quarry Wednesday
afternoon, had an accident happen to him
which might have resulted more seriously,
He had a number of fuse caps in his
left coat pocket and was at the time en-
gagged in digging with a pick. The handle
of the pick struck the caps in his pocket
and caused them to explode.
The explosion of the caps tore a hole
almost an inch square in his left leg and
berely escaped bursting the femoral artery,
the main artery of the leg. If this artery
had opened it would probably have re-
suited in his death. His clothes were al
so badly shattered by the explosion. DR.
Barlow dressed the wound.

Accidents.

AS the result OF two accidents that
happened at the Kilbourn Hosiery Mills
Wednesday, the wool department and
the dyeing department had to shut down.
About twenty minutes of seven in the
morning the cylinder head on the engine
in the wool department blew off and
this department was compelled to suspend
work. No damage was done to the room.
About an hour afterward the governor
on the engine in the dying department
got out of order and the engine began
running too fast and small parts Of the
machinery were thrown about the room,
breaking some of the glass in the windows.
The shafting was also bent in several
