Ehey Had Political Consequences
Not FOreseen in That Time.
General Zebulon Pixies explorations
Of 1sO6-1s07 had political consequences
which neither Pike nor anybody else
in his day could foresee, says the Re
view Of Reviews. Although he was
well treated by the Spaniards, his cap
ture by them intensified the desire Of
Americans, especially In the west, to
drive Spain out Of Mexico. Written
in 1908 and published in 1910, his re-
port pointed out the wealth Of Next
co.'s natural resources, showed the
weakness Of SPANS hold on that coun-
try, and urged her expulsion by an
American army IL Bonaparte should
seize the Spanish throne, which Bona
parte did while Pike was writing, and
held it for six years.
Pixies report sent Magee, Kemper,
Long, and other adventures from our
side of the line over into Texas and
other parts of Mexico, More import
ant still, it iRcited Moses Austin to get
from Ferdinand Wis representatives
in 1920 permission to establish a colo
ny Of Americans In Texas, which his
son, Stephen f. Austin, planted there
in 1922. When the Mexicans soon aft
erward drove Spain out the Inevitable
race conflict with the Americans be-
gan, which eliminated in Sam Hous-
toms victory over Santa Anna at San
Jaclnto in 1886, and the establishment
of the Texas republic.
By the annexation Of Texas in 1S45
the United States inherited Texas
boundary dispute with Mexico, and
this led to the war of 1S46-1S4S, which,
through conquest and purchase, placed
the stars and stripes over the present
New Mexico, Arizona Except that
part below the ella, which Gadsden
bought In 1889, California. Nevada,
Utah, and parts of Colorado and Wyo-
ming, and pushed our territory in the
southwest onward to the Pacific While
the American and Mexican commits
sioners were fixing up their peace pact
at Guadalupe Hidalgo in the opening
days of 1S4S, James w. Marshall made
his gold discovery in the raceway of

Martin Luther, who was the son of
John Lotter or Lauther (Which name

Luther) and Margaret Lindenen, was
born in the little town Of Islebern, in
Saxony, on November 10th, 1888. His
father was a miner. Luther died In
1916, and princes, earls, mobiles, and
students without number, attended the
funeral of the miners son in the church
of Islebern. On this occa NAon, Malanc-
thon delivered the funeral Grafton.

Hay Fever.-The disorder known as
hay fever, while not dangerous, is ex-
tremely uncomfortable. 1t resembles a
violent catarrh, although it excites the
eyes and tear glands rather than the
nasal membrane. Some authorities at
tribute the trouble to hay, others to the
pollen of certain fowers-notably the
golden rod-a third group to tricksy
nerves and fourth to emanations from
mice, rabbits or other animals. Owing
to the wide diversity of opinion about
the cause, there is no uniformity in the
methods of treatment Here are few
of the remedies: Local bleeding, aperi-
ents, quinine, tonics, iron, opium. mer.
