power of giving to the blood the
nourishment it requires. The sys-

Poor blood coursing through the

the sufferer is utterly incapable OF

Texas homestead law more per-
fectly protects the rights Of her
citizenship than that of any other
state. Under it no mortgage can
be executed upon the home--this is
wise provision While it would
seem that too much is allowed the

with, law might be made inopera-
tive.

The Free Reading Room .

We have no sympathy with those who look to the past for the great and good in everythng-men, morals, religion and politics; those who think all the great noveIists and poets are dead. We believe in the present, that it sur passes any age of all the past, in litera- ture as in everything else; but we must confess the many old familiar authors of our boyhood days represented on the library shelves of the new reading room afforded us more pleasure than She latest works of the greatest living authors. Every man and woman who
 can look back to childhood in coun- try home, with the long winter even ings, the father reading aloud from the weekly newspaper, farm journal, or the

wonderful books that went the rounds of the entire neighborhood, will find there many dear old friends. Edward Everett Hale's name recalls an evening in boyhood when father read aloud his short but famous story, "The Man Without Country" as reprinted in the N. Y. Tribune from the Atlantic Monthly, our neighbors read it too, and most of them, like us, thought it must be a narrative of facts, and so numerous were the enquiries from all over the country that MT. Hale explained through the press that it was simply story. Edward Eggleston, Louisa M. Alcott, Ingraham, and numerous oth- CT good authors too little read today are represented.
 But the proportion of new books is as large as is generally found in a i- brary of this size. Stevenson, Doyle, Kipling. Max O'Ren, Craddock, Drum mond. and other writers of to-day are there. Those standard authors, who never grow old, Dickens, Scott, Cooper, Thackery, Hugo, Dumas, and a dozen more occupy much space-Dickens is nearly complete.
 There is something in history, more in travel, including some new and eX- ceIlent works, some of the poets, con- siderable in fction-the most of 1t up- to-date and of first quality, something in religious literature, little in the SCI ences, some juvenile books, and small per cent of trash.
 There is a large and valuable collec- tion of unbound magazines, the most of them in complete volumes, conven- iently arranged in a large case. The Literary Digest, Arena, North Ameri- can Review, Century. Harper's, Scrib- ner's, Review of Reviews, Self Culture, Donahoe's, McClure's, The Outlook, Cosmopolitan, Munsey. and others are there. The boys and girls will find Harpers Round Table, Youths Com panion, Little Men and Women, Little Folks, etc.
 Besides the above there are the late news, illustrated, humorous and other papers and the popular magazines.
 When all are in place there will be about 1000 bound volumes, small public library, it is true, but to us, and we believe to a large majority, a much more enjoyable place than any large city library could possibly be; here you can go to the book shelves and se- lect for yourself and feel at home.
 Books can also be taken out to read at home.
 This comfortable, commodious, and we'll located reading room and library is under the auspices of the Y.P $. c. E.. of the Congregational church, but is practically a free public library, where every man, woman, boy and girl interested in such things is equally welcome. Long may it live and pros per.

Reeds statement. made at the pre-
liminary hearing was that he was sick
in bed, and he raised IN to move his
gun from under the mattress and set
it against the wall. and it accidentally
went off. Avery. who was preparing
breakfast. received the charge in the
breast and died almost instantly.

Was in Leaving Santiago i, Daytine-The
Terror and St. Paul.

Washington, April 1.-The bureau of
naval intelligence of the navy depart
ment has issued the last of the series of
sketches of the Spanish American war
by Commander Jacobson of the Ger
man protected cruiser Geier. The last
of this interesting series deals with the
condition of the Spanish ships after the
battle of Santiago. This portion of the
sketch contains a number of observa-
lions regarding the technical effect of
our gun fire which will interest naval
officers. The most interesting observa-
tons to the layman are those upon the
strategy or lack of it displayed by
Cervera The Spanish admiral having
been ordered to leave the harbor to re-
move the main object of the attack up
on Santiago, Commander Jacobson
says his position was most difficult. He
did not dare make the attempt at night
and so decided to go out in broad day
light.
THE whole crew." he says, fell a
victim to this fatal decision. Instruc-
tions for the sortie and the western
course were issued. The admiral was
