ZOE FOR THE HOT MAN.
The Conductor Knew How to Handle
the Had Man.


The Conductor Knew How to Handle
the Had Man.
II was on car in Texas a few
nights ago t'other side of San Anto-
Mo-" said New Orleans business man
to New Orleans Times-D Democrat re-
porter, when typical frontier tough
got on board. He was a little chap,
but powerfully built and about half
drunk. As soon as he came in he drew
revolver that looked as big as a
stovepipe and bawled out: I'm the
hottest man this side of Ell Paso.
can lick any galoot on the train.
There were some ladies at the far end
of the car, and good-looking man
who was with them half rose as if to
put a stop to the disturbance. He re-
considered the enterprise, however,
and sent for the conductor instead.
Meanwhile the wandering eyes of the
stranger lit on the headrests of the
chairs, which were round, padded
disks about foot across. Naturally
they were suggestive of targets, and
he proceeded to draw bead on sew
eral. The occupants promptly sought
seclusion under the seats, greatly to
the edifcation of the bad man with
the gun Wow wow! he roared.
I'm the hottest gent in Texas Watch
me plug that Teller in the heel! The
passenger referred to crawled hastily
into the woodbox, and, to tell the
truth, we were all in state of pitiable
funk. Just then the conductor came
walking briskly in. He, too, was a lit
tie fellow, but he had voice like a
megaphone. Where's that bad MANI
he doomed. We held our breaths and
looked for a tragedy instanter. Here
l am yelled the other chap. Vow!
I'm the hottest Yes, heard about
that said the conductor, walking
right up to him. Gimme that gum
To my amazement the stranger per-
mitted him to take it without the least
resistance. Now, look here the con-
ductor went on, you're too warm for
this car. We've got stove here. and
you make it unpleasant. So you get
right out on that platform, blast your
-eyes5 and stay there until YOU lose
some of your heat The hot man
meekly allowed himself to be pro-
PEELED through the door, and stayed on
the platform all the rest of the trip.
The men inside looked at each other
rather sheepishly, and asked the con-
ductor confidentially how he dared
take such chances, oh. there wasn't
any risk he said. L had the fellow
sized up. If it had been somebody else
I might have acted differently. One o.
the first things you've got to learn III
this business is how to tell buffer. 4"

Hon. Thomas C. Fletcher, the noted
war Governor of the State of Missouri,
is great friend of Peru-na. He
writes:

bus, Ohio.
Gentlemen-For years have been
afflicted with chronic catarrh, which
has gone through my whole system,
and no one knows the torture and
misery l have passed through. My
doctor has prescribed various RENEE
dies, and have never found any relief
until l was persuaded by friend to
use DIR. Hartman's Pe-ru-na. After the
use of one bottle l feel like a new
man. 1t also cured me Of dropping

TEN up generally. To those who are
suffering with catarrh l take pleasure
in recommending your great medicine.
Very respectfully

Everything that affects the welfare
of the people is a legitimate subject
of comment to the real statesman.
The statesman is not a narrow man.
1t is the politician who is narrow. The
true statesman looks out on the world
as it is and seeks, as far as is in his
power to remedy evils and encourage
the good.
Catarrh in its various forms is rap
idly becoming national curse. An
undoubted remedy has been discov-
cred by DR.. Hartman. This remedy
has been thoroughly tested during the
past forty years. Prominent men have
come to know OF its virtues, and are
making public utterances on the sub
ject. To save the country we must
save the people. To save the people
we must protect them from disease.
The disease that is at once the most
prevalent and stubborn of cure is ca
tarrh.

ing of that years business. l do
not know how cypress interests
will show up, but | feel reason
ably sure of them, too.
1--WE will ship 100000 feet of
yellow pine to Cuba, which is only
a'speck of the mammoth Cuban
business. You see, it is this way;
Our business may not have gotten
so much of the Cuban business,
but some other mills did, and
thus took the supply off the mar
ket, leaving other markets just as
good, open to usa fellows who did
not do so much Cuban exporting
directly. Thus is it that the Gu
ban trade has helped every one.
"There is not ayellow pine mill
in the south to-day that is not
crowded with orders. Many of
them al e running overtime. Hands
are getting steady work and good
pay. Prosperity, in other words,
sits perched on the banner of the
yellow pine men and | am glad to
see it, for they have certainly suf-
fered enough reverses during
other years.
"The interior trade has been
exceptionally heavy, too, which
has gone largely to railroads.
About six years ago there was a
big demand for pine from the
railroads. That supply has been
exhausted and the renewals are
now coming in. One railroad
alone, the Santa Fe, has placed
an order for 100000 ties, each
of which contains 32 feet of lum-
Der, thus making the order
amount to 10000, 900 feet. Think
of thatl One railroad buying 49,
100000 feet of lumber at 3 jump.
1t gives business to a lot of mills
and feeds a horde of hungry peo-
pie. Then the new railroad con-
struction is very heavy at this
time"
Mr.. Lutcher is cautious talker,
but it can be seen at a glance that
he is enthusiastic over the lum-
Der prospects in Louisiana and
Texas, where his mills are located.
Orange, Tex, has the advantage
of water expectation through
Sabine Pass.

poets of 1892" asked Mr.. Lut.
cher. "Well, we never turned SC
bright a page in our ledger as the
one that marks Jan. /, 1899, and
the indications are that the stand
ard will be upheld throughout
the year. The amount of lum-
Der that will be consumed in this
country and in our new possessions
during the year will be some,
thing enormous. New Orleans

A fire broke out in the school
room connected with the east cell
buildings at the Huntsville peni-
Tertiary at 5 O'Clock on the mora
ing of the 18th and burned all of
the east and west cell buildings
and also the general Offices, in
Guiding those of the superintend-
.ent and assistant. The water
mains being frozen hard prevent
ed a stream of water being pro-
cured until the pipes were entire
ly thawed. The fire is thought to
have caught from defective flue.
The prisoners were marched to
the south yards and shops until
the fire was extinguished. Many
of the guards lost their trunks
and also articles of apparel. At
/ minute to Z o'clock the clock
fell with great crash. Work in
the shops began about half an
hour after the regular time.

A PHARMACIST OF ABILITY.
Woman Enters and Captures New
Field of Endeavor.

Field of Endeavor.
Miss Josie Wanous is a pretty young
girl of Minneapolis who has lately
taken upon her shoulders the burden
of what is generally known as the
occupation of a man. She owns her
own drug store, compounds her own
prescriptions and is known far and
wide as pharmacist of accuracy and
ability. The story of this pretty
young woman's success. is a pretty re-
cital of discouragements and indomit-
able energy She was little Bo-
hemian girl in the Bohemian quarter
of Minneapolis and a pupil at the high
school. A druggist who soughS. the
Bohemian trade noted the bright face
gave her position in his store. She
worked there after she graduated from
the high school and in a little while
had almost learned the pharmacopeia
by heart. Miss Wanous liked pharma-
ceutics and from the store she went
to a pharmaceutical college and studied
six months to secure registration as
clerk. 1t was some time after her
graduation that she secured position.
People seemed distrustful OF a young
lady prescription clerk, and it was a
year after her graduation until she
succeeded in getting a position in a
drug store. From this time her ad-
vancement was rapid, and she has now,
though still young, one of the finest
drug stores in Minneapolis.

Everywhere. We got into

Ve wanted to go home and
bought sure we were headed for
ew Orleans when we entered.
DON after getting in the car the
Dor was closed and we decided
we were in for it. We stayed in
there three days. During that
time we have not had bite to
eat or drop of water to drink,
and we are not only hungry, but
thirsty-for water. -
The boys were taken in charge
by young men at the freight Of
fee. Agent Thomas provided
them with something to eat at the
Katy lucnh counter, and some of
the trainmen who heard their
story were touched with SYM
pathy and they supplied the lads
with a hearty meal. They thawed
out and resumed their journey.
The story told by the lads was
as follows: "We wantedto go to %
New Orleans and there in the
spring make start for home. We
saw the car of fruit standing on
the sidetrack and decided to get
into it. We found a small box in
one end and passed in there for.
safe keeping. Pretty soon the
door was fastened. We wanted
to get to New Orleans, however,
and we didn't mind. We could
do without something to eat for
thirty-siX hours and that would
put us into that place. Instead
of going that way we were turned
north and began to get cold. The
train kept speeding along and
there was no chance of escape.
We rubbed each other, slapped
each other and took all manner
of exercise we could to keep
warm and keep from freezing un-
til we got to this place, where the
car stopped, and we raised
noise and were released. We
were too cold to move and could
not walk for two hours"
The boys had been in the ice
box in the car, where ice is kept
in summer to keep the fruit at a
moderate temperature. 1t is not
needed in this kind of weather.
From the story the boys told of
their hardships and exposure it is
a wonder they did not dis from
hunger and exposure. AS soon
as they recovered from the effects
of their long exposure and the
terrible suffering from cold to
which they had been exposed they
were sent north. Trainmen whose
sympathies were attracted by the
stories of the boys furnished them
food and means to leave town.
