More than thousand people left the Fifth

declaring that they had heard one Of the
strongest sermons to which they had ever lis
tened. The occasion and the audience alike
were full Of inspiration. and DR. Henry van
Dyke the moderator of the General Assembly
rose 10 the occasion. The sermon was short
on actical theme, and delivered with intense
earnestness. Aside from the commissioners. he
had many people in his audience who had never
heard him preach; many of them will want TO go
TO the Prick Church some time to hear him
again. The text was one from which every

 Mexican Herald: The fiesta or ganized by the ladies of Guadala- jara, which took place on the Sth inst, netted about two thousand dollars for the Chilpancingo earth quake victims.
 Mexican Herald: During the course of the present month Yuca- tan and Tabasco have exported more henequen and valuable woods than during the entire month of March of last year.
 Torreon Enterprises There is evi- dently some truth in the report that Torreon is to have another electric line, unless the company at present operating between Torreon, Gomez Palacion and Lerdo awakes to the necessity of extending their line on through this city towards the shelter. A representative of an eastern railway company is ex- pected here almost any day for the purpose of looking over this field, preparatory to building an electric street railway system through the heart of the city.
 Mexican Herald; Miguel Sando- val and Guadalupe Contreras, two children male and female, eloped yesterday afternoon after leaving school. The girls family notified the police, and several men were sent out to search for the young low CTS, with the result that they were found in a "fgon" indulging in pulque to celebrate their escapade. They were arrested and sent to their respective homes, until Judge Brisefio unites them in civil mar riage.
 Mexican Herald: Pedro Rosales and Dolores Ramirez were tried for bigamy and sentenced few days ago, Rosales' attorney now de- mands the release of his client, as the maximum for bigamy is three years, and the offense was commit ted six years ago; so that in 1899 no judicial action could have been brought against Rosales. This is the first tine that a similar case has occurred in Mexican courts. Rosales and the woman will be set free in a few days.

Tourist Excursions to the East.

The travelling public will be interested
to learn of the system of personally con-
Quoted excursion cars operated over the
Rio Grande system, popularity known as
"The Scenic Line Of The World" They
are the regular Pullman tourist or "'or-
binary" sleepers, provided with comfort
able berths, bedding and linen of the
Pullman standard. They have separate
lavatories, are well lighted and heated,
and in fact are most successful substi-
tute for the more expensive standard"
sleepers, the difference arising from the
character Of upholstering furnished. A
colored porter is in attendance with every
car, and besides him an excursion con-
ductor, whose sole duty is to look after
the pleasure and comfort of passengers
in his charge.
These cars are run through to Kansas
City, Omaha, st. Louis and Chicago,
New York and all eastern points.
Thsfeature of travel has become so
popular that there is now established a
regular service of nine cars each week,
offering variety of routes and schedules
so arranged.that stop-overs may be made
if desired at Salt Lake City, Denver or
any point between.
No extra charge is made beyond regu-
lar tourist rates.
To those Interested will be glad to
quote the lowest fares and furnish full
information about the scenic beauties Of
the Rio Grapde route and its superior ac-
CommodatioBs.

4 few months ago a Wilkeson bride
of two days attempted to kill her hus-
band by giving him poisoned wine.
With winning smile she had handed
him beaker in the depths OF which
are the lcgendiy love and song, but
for which she had substituted carbolic
acid. a physician was Immediately
summoned and the young mans life
saved, only after close call to enter
the p4arly gates. The bride fled, took
10 the woods and was seen no more.
The husband procured divorce,
Long afterward the lady was caught
and was held for trial on bail. The
matter might have been forgotten
ave that the ex-husband pines for
the marital state again, and names as
his choice the winsome lady who had
treated him to carbolic acid. Wheth-
er the lady is willing is not at this
moment known. The coy young
thing may be glad of chance to es-
cape prosecution, and she may have a
hankering for an opportunity to see
how much carbolic acid the gentle
man can swallow without getting a
fatal jar or having his devotion shat
tered. Love, concededly, is peculiar
thing. Nevertheless, the ordinary
case of it would shy at the bride who
goes 10 the altar with bottle oil
poison hid in her shimmering robe
and celebrate her happiness by deal
ing out a potion of it to the man
whom she had just sworn to treat diff
ferently. At the second wedding con-
spicuous among the gifts there should
be an antidote for the draught in
which the occasion is to be celebrated
The vagaries OF affection are noted,
but in this case it seems that more
than one is loose.
