Train Runs into a Team.

Saturday morning train No. l6, the
one that goes down the river route,
while going to Myrick crashed into a
team at HOffmanS crossing. One Of
the mules was killed outright, the
other badly injured and the driver,
John Bolton, colored. had his leg
broken. There is a bend at this
place which makes it impossible to
see the train and Bolton drove on the
track not knowing of the near ap-
proach OF the train. The team and
wagon which was broken to pieces
belonged TO James L. Rice.

STRONGEST EVIDENCE OF FAITH
Chas. W. Loomis Guarantees That
Hyomei win Cure the Worst Case
of Catarrh IN Lexington.

When one Of the most reputable
concerns in Lexington guarantees that
a medicine will effect a cure or he
will refund the money, it speaks vol
umes as to the merits of that remedy.
1t is in this way that Chas. w. Loomis
is selling Hyomei, the treatment that
has made so MANY remarkable cures
Of both acute and chronic catarrh in
Lexington and vicinity.
Hyomei is not a pill nor is it a
LIQUID that has TO be taken with a
tablespoon or wineglass. just breathe
it by the aid of an inhaler that comes
in every outfit and benefit will be seen
from the first treatment.
1t destroys all germ life in the air
passages and lungs and enriches and
purihes the blood with additional
ozone. 1t cures catarrh of the head
and throat, or of the stomach, liver
and kidneys. Wherever mucous mem
brane contains catarrhal germs, there
Hyomei will do its work of healing.
When using this treatment, the air
you breathe will be found like that on
the mountains high above the sea
level, where grow balsamic trees and
plants which make the air pure by
giving off volatile antiseptic fragrance
that is healing to the respiratory
organs.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but
sl.OO and includes an inhaler, dropper
aud sufficient Hyomei for several
weeks treatment.
Remember that If Hyomei does not
cure you Chas. w. Loomis will refund
your money. This is a good time to
cure catarrh by this natural method
and prevent catarrhal colds that are 50
common at this season.

that instead Of an early train from CO.

would have an early train into Column

As to the reported change. railroad
officials have nothing to say, and it is
perhaps safe to state that no change

THE PLAGUE IN MEXICO.

The plague will not be wanting in
good to Mexico If it compels the people
there to clean up. Much OF the pictur-
sequences of Mexican coast towns is
that Of rags and dirt. The average
peon, part Spanish and part Indian, re-
CARDS a city as a camp and treats 1t
accordingly. When a place gets too
dirty for him he moves to some other
place and his old one is occupied by
another nomad. The sanitary appli-
ances of such towns, where they exist
at ALL are nearly as primitive as those
OF China. The difference is but slightly
in favor of the Mexican town.
Keeping clean is one of the standard
marks of a higher civilization. The
progressive nation is the one that builds
houses with bathtubs in them, and
streets with sewers. The conquering
race is the one that buys the most soap.
The AnglO-SaXon takes to water like a
duck. The japanese, who are keeping
down plague at home, are forever bath
ing: the Chinese merely rub themselves
once in while with a damp cloth or
some oil, and the Mexican peon never
gets wet except when II rains. In
studying the causes of Latin decline,
aversion to the bath should not be over
looked.
When the plague gets into popula-
ton like that of Mazatlan or Guaymas
or La Paz. 1t Is likely to make long
stay. Cleanliness would seem to be an
easy remedy, but 1t may be doubted
that even the resources OF President
Diaz will be more than enough to force
an external pretence of sanitation.
Against any household innovation like
soap and water, stand the traditions OF
a thousand years.

SUBMARINES AND SUBMERSlBLES

The French government is moving
towards an entire change in its method
NJ Naval warfare. The chief or the
Admiralty has recently published q long
and exhaustive article in the Revue
Maritime. in which he claims that large
battleships will soon be useless. He
believes that the Naval battles Of the
future will be settled by "submersibles
and submarines" In the latest maneu-
yers of the feet, the use of these meth
DDS was fully tested, and the french
officers are satisfied that they are
abundantly able TO contend with ana
destroy battleships, especially II those
ships are near the shore and can be
reached at easy distances. According
TO to this high official the submersibles
and submarines have passed the eXper-
mental stage, and are perfectly relia-
able as war engines.
Our own Naval officers have. for
many years kept in view this method
of warfare. especially for defense, and
many of them have not favored large
investments in battleships.
OF course. the final test of these ma
chimes is actual war AS there has been
no Naval war, between any of the
great powers. for over fifty years, this
final test may not be made for a long
time to come. In the meantime, there
will be persistent efforts made to i'm
prove this service.
There has been an extraordinary i'm
provement made in the gunnery prac-
tice of the British Navy. BY the aid of
a new gun sight the gunners score
twice as many hits as they formerly
did. Admiral Charles Beresford says
that IL he had six ships, with gunners
trained as Captain Scott of the battle
ship Terrible has trained his men, he
would be willing to fight twelve ships
with gunners not under like training.
The lesson on the firing line, given by
our Navy during the late war with
Spain, has been quickly learned by the
British. our Naval men must be up to
some new wrinkle" In order to main
tain their superiority 1t has taken the
British nearly hundred years 10 un-
