America Advancing.

American locomotives are hauling
English trains, and the English
trains and Englishmen are rolling
over American steel rails. Ourma-
chinery is sold all over the world. A
great American remedy, Hostel
ter's Stomach BitterS, is gradually
working its way to all parts of the
globe where dyspepsia and iudiges-
ton thrive, Like all American
products, it is honest, and does just
what it claims to do. The most
stubborn cases of constipation, bill
iousness, nervousness, liver and kid
ney troubles must yield to it. 1t is
the most perfect remedy ever de-
vised for weak stomachs. For fifty
years it has been famous for its as
tonishing efficacy, 1t is perfectly
natural remedy, aod there is moth
ing to equal it, See that a private
Revenue Stamp covers the neck of
the bottle.

Parties from this place who heard
the speech of JEFF Davis, at Mena,
last Saturday, say it was nothing
but sluice of blackguardism; that
his language was enough to disgust
every man on the ground, to say
nothing of the women. The same
parties we're well pleased and de
Iie hted with the speech of Judge
Bryant. 1t is pity a clean man

Hon. f. r, Tarver, of Laredo,
Texas, a member of the late legis-

antitrust law passed by it; ut is
the grandest piece of political patch
work and demagogism ever perpe-
trated upon an unsuspecting pub
lie, ana if upheld by the courts,
would entail more ruin than one
hundred Brazos floods" The law
goes into effect next January. 1t

We heard a gentleman giving his
experience of shipping cantaloupes
to Saint Louis yesterday He said
he shipped a great many in crates
and they were fine fellows too, aud
when the middle man and myself
came to settle up he had me charged
$3.50 more than the cautaloupes
brought These charges were all
under the head Of freight, drayage,
commissions, rotage and so on,
We asked him If he intended to try
the cantaloupe business again and
he said ii he did, he would not have
a middle man In partnership with
him, but would sell direct TO the
dealer and would take particular
care that he sold high enough to
pay the freight,

Mr.. G. A. Hays received formi-
dable looking envelope yesterday
from Waco, and having a couple Of
brothers there, thought before he
opened it, that he was going to be
made beneficiary in a will. He
opened the enclosure, after specu-
lation of it's contents, found
it to be photograph of his brother
Tom D. Hays, taken beside mann
moth Tarpon of his own catch. The
fish was six feet and one inch long
and weighed 130 pounds. The letter
accompanying the photograph was
description of the fight the
fish made when hooked by Mr., Hays
at Corpus Christi, Texas. Mr., Hays
had taken the precaution to cut
press notices from the daily papers
published at Corpus Christi, to back
up statement as to landing this
monster Tarpon. One of the clip
pings said that the fish was the
largest ever caught so near in
shore. and it goes on to make Mr.,
Hays out a hero in being able
to play and land the fish in the
manner he did, Mr., g. A. Hays is
very proud of the photograph. Mr..
Tom Hays is we'll known here, hav.
ing lived here before he went to
Waco, and his friends will be glad
to hear of him landing the largest
Tarpon yet caught on the Gulf
Coast.

The Texas & Pacific car shops at
Tyler have turned out coach for
General Manager Charles S. Thorne
which is said to be one of the finest
coaches in the state of Texas, and
few can compare with it anywhere.
Mr.. Thorne is entitled to good car,
if any manager is, for he has worked
himself up from a "brakey" to his
present high position, and his head
is not whit larger now than it was
when he was giving the high ball to
the engineer to 60 ahead, or poking
the jabbing stick at hobos riding in
empty cattle cars over the road.
The boys on the road still call him
by his given name, and there is not
brakeman on the road that would
not jump you should he hear you
speak antagonistic to this officer.

HOW A CUBAN DRINKS.

The funniest thing in the line of
drinking is to see the Cubans imbibe
water from monkey Jug" or perone,
says the writer of a Havana letter.
The vessel by the way, which is found
in every house and hotel bedroom. is a
delight to the foreigner, not only by
reason of it's artistic beauty, but be-
cause it keeps the water cool in a COM
paratively iceless country. There are
jugs and jugs of various shapes and
sizes-all of gray clay, nodded in quaint
design. The cOmmoneSt are round and
slender, with two holes on each side
near the handle. which is on the top.
One hole is perhaps an inch in diameter,
through which to pour the water into
the jug, and the other in knob which
marks the place. is not larger than the
hollow of a goosequill. 1t is the old
story of the bung and the spigot. Filled
with water, the jug is hung on a peg
or any convenient projection in a spot
that is draughty. The currents of air
cause the thick pores of clay to per-
spire, like a patient recovering from the
Santiago fever and the result is that
the water is rendered cool and whole
some. The Cuban fashion of drinking is
not to touch the vessel with the lips,
but to open the mouth wide, and, hold
ing the jug up, to tilt it until a tiny
stream runs down the throat, describing
a 6-inch curve and striking square on
the root of the tongue

W. L. Chamberlain Says Bucket Shop
Bill Was For Doodle Purposes.

W. l.. Chamberlain, who operates a
commission house in Topeka commonly
known as a bucket shop" says in ref
erence to the passage of the bucket
shop law:
Had the great body of legislators
known the true animus of the affair
they would have buried the bill too deep
for resurrection. The fact is the bucket
shop men could have defeated the bill
by putting up money to certain legis
lators. We have been held up so often
by the legislature that we decided this
time not to give up cent and stand the
consequences. We figured that we
might better let the question as to the
legality of such a law be tested now
than to keep putting up Doodle at every
session of the Legislature. We believed
that such a bill was unconstitutional
and that, if the courts so decided it,
we could not be held up again in the
future. I was approached during the
session and told that if we would put up
81 900 the bill would never go through.
advance, either. He agreed to leave it
in escrow in a local bank, and if the
bill was defeated he was to take the
money: if it passed 1 was to get the
money back. 1 would not stand it and
told him to crack his whip. He did so
and the bill went through. Now we are
interested in finding out if it is cOnsti-
tutional. If it is as l said before, the
bucket shops will all quit business. If
it is not, we will continue"
