CHIC SPRINGS WATER.

Mr.. Chic has had an analysis
made of his spring water from sew
eral different chemists, and they are
all Of one opinion, that the water is
pure and free from organic matter
or any injurious substance. We
have not the space to give the
analysis in full and only publish
some of the side notes made as to
the purity of the water. DR.: f. l..
Yoakum, president gf the academy
science, Tyler, Texas, says: "Dr.
L. NJ. H. Walker, of the Academy
of Science, having previously deter
mined the purity and excellence Of
this water, have only to corrobo-
rate his testimony, and whatever
our therories may be but as to the
purity, it is far in advance Of the
Buxton Springs of Europe Wal
ter S. Hanes, of Chicago, a noted
chemist, says the water is pure and
wholesome.
An analysis made by Ennis VIII
let's, of Washington, D. c., gives
the water as being pure and safe.
F. Hacker, chemist of Anheuser
Busch Brewing Association, Of ST.
Louis, says; "The water from Tex
arkana is a rare pure and healthy
water, and is excellent for technical
purposes"
Mr.. Schwartz, of New York, says
of the water: "The water repre-
sents a very pure and good drink.
ing water but is no respect to be
considered a mineral water. The
water is not worthy of being spe.
cially recommended for medica
purposes. The water is excellent
for industrial purposes"
Wahl & Hennis, of Chicago, says
of the water: "This is a remark
ably pure and safe water and is ad
mirably suited for technical purpo
ses, and is a pure and wholesome
drinking water, We have rarely
met in our wide experience with {
water of such character, containing
practically no earthly salts, like
carbonate of lime, carbonate o.
magnesia, sulphate of lime, etc
On this account, the water can bt
classified as a hygiene water, being
effective in cases of calculous con
cretionS of gravel.
We are proud to know that we
have such pure water almost in the
city, and trust some day to see il
piped into the city for drinking
| purposes.

Religion Losing Ground.

The country is becoming egitated
over religion. Periodically some
one rises and declares that it is de-
caying. This results in countless
discussions until the agitation runs
its course, and still religion flour
ishes. 1t always will, for it is some
thing the world needs, One of the
finest recommendations of Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, the great
American stomach strengthener,
lies in the fact that 1t has lived for
fifty years in spite of hundreds of
limitations, and is renowned for its
cure of constipation, dyspepsia, bill
iousuess, fever and ague, malaria,
and sees to it that the life-giving
elements of the food are assimila-
ted with the blood. There is moth

Negroes at Kaufman, Texas, held
a mass meeting a few days since,
and adopted resolutions condemn
ing the heinous crimes committed
by their race upon white women.
1t is well that they begin to take a
course like this, and try to stop
such crimes, for if they continue
much longer, and become staud-
ing menace to the whites of the
south, colonization is sure to come
sooner or later. If they wish tC
continue to live among the whites,
they must learn to properly behave

City Comptroller McCardy was at NAYS
vile, KY. at the time Richard Coleman
the negro who was burned at the stake
committed the crime for which he was
tortured and killed. In speaking of the
case, Mr.. McCardy said:
AT the time I was attending a reunion
or my regiment, and 1 will never forget
it.
The feeling throughout that section of
the country was bitter, and there was
everywhere evident quiet determination
that foreboded a terrible fate TO the
wretch who committed the crime If he
was caught. This feeling was infectious
Mrs. Lashbrook was a most popular
lady. and member Of most respectable
family.
Coleman was captured while I was
there, and but for the interference Of
the victims husband he would have then
suffered the fate that befell him yester-
day. Mr.. Lashbrook urged that it was
not absolutely known that the man was
guilty. Coleman afterward confessed.
and was rushed off to Covington. l real
lied at the time that If Coleman was
ever taken to that section for trial he
would never leave the place alive. and
judging from what I heard at the tina
am not surprised that he was tortured
and then burned"

Little Decrease Anticipated Until

The present freight situation fully sub
stimulates the predictions made in Oc-
tober by officials OF the different North
western lines. that a heavy volume of
traffic would continue through December
and well into the new year. Officials of
several lines predicted that there would
be no marked decrease in freight traffic
until the middle of February, if not until
the snow is again off the ground.

several years, with no indication yet Of
any perceptible change The other Chi

Burlington especially, there Is still a car
shortage. though 1t has become intermit-

during the past two weeks In several
instances has amounted to 800 cars a
day, thought the average is much less.
