ST. L. B. & N. SLEEPERS
Through Seviye by YOakum Lines, With
Observation Platform.

Houston, Tex, Dec. lit IS
learned that the two Yoakum roads
on which service IS to commence
at an early date in January will
use a combination sleeper and OBJ
servation car Oh the Gulf Coast
line and the Trinity & Brazos
Valley route. The runs will be
between Brownsville and St. Louis,
using the two roads mentioned
and the northern connections Of
the Yoakum roads, the Frisco
Rock Island systems. A twelve
section sleeper, with observation
facilities on the rear portion, will
be the type of car used and prob
ably half a dozen of them will be
used. An order for this number
has alread been placed with the
Pullman people, who have promised
that the cars shall be ready shortly
following the commencement of
passenger traffic during January.
As explained by officials of the
road, the observation feature is to
be introduced solely in order that
patrons of the road may see for
themselves the beautiful agricul
tural country through which the
two roads run. The idea will be
to advertise the sections as much
as possible and to this end the
company wishes to afford every
facility Tor the acountry to be
viewed by passengers. The added
advantages of an observation
feature combined with sleeper
facilities is apparent to all, in
asmuch as it combines two practi-
cal utilities. Also, it ouviates the
necessity for the railroad company
to haul dead tonnage during the
sight, as would be the case were
the car solely an observation car.
Manager Jeff Miller is credited
with having first advocated using
the combination sleeper and OBJ
servation car on the Yoakum Tex
as lines, although many other lines
an Texas are now using them to
decided advantage.

CATHOLICS ARE PROSECUTED
Attitude Of french Government in Ec-
cIesiasticaI Controversy Decried by
Local Clergyman.

San Antonio, Dec. 13.-Father
A. P. Fletcher of St. Mary's Col
lege discussed at lengtr yesterday
the condition of Catholic affairs in
France and the effect that the pres
ent trouble would probably have
on the Catholic religion in France.
It is the opinion of Father
Fletcher that in the end the church
will be stronger than ever and that
the Governments attempt to drive
the religion from the Republic,
which he says, is the object of the
present persecution, will result in
failure, and that as in Germany,
the church will prosper do1bly,
after matters are adjusted.
The dispatches from France
give only one side of the affair, "
said Father Fletcher, and they
falsely inform us that the Pope is
irving to interfere with the Gov
eminent when he is only seeking
fair treatment of the Catholics,
which is not being accorded them.
The present trouble, growing
out of the decree of separation of
the church and State, shows plain
" that the French Government is
trying to subordinate the church
to the State and drive its worship
ers beyond the borders of the Re
public "
Father Fletcher says that when
the Government representatives is
sued a decree of separation of
church and State without consult
ing Rome they were violating the
treaty of Napoleon, made some
time in the early part of the nine
tenth century.
when Napoleon was in pow
er, said Father Fletcher, they
began to persecute the Catholics in
France. Napoleon called a con-
ference of representatives of the
Catholic religion in Rome and rep
resentatives of the prosecutors IN
France. The conference resulted
in a treaty between the two fac
tons in which it was agreed that
the French Government should
take no action against the Cath
olics without first consulting Rome.
This the late French Assembly
failed to do. ;"
Discussing the future of Cath
olicism in France Father Fletcher
said: Years ago Germany at
tempted to subjugate the Catholic
Church and for awhile there were
shameful prosecutions and great
confusion, but in the end the
church triumphed as Christian
Church always will. Before the
persecution the church had to
comply with certain laws of State
but afterward when it was left to
work out its own destiny without
restrictions it began to prosper
until now Catholicism in Germany
is in freer and more prosperous
state than in any other nation of
the world. When present con
ditions in France are relieved the
church in that nation will prosper
lust as it has in Germany.

VINOL SETTLES
The Cod Liver Oil Question.

No one will dispute the curative and
strength creating value OF cod liver Oil.
For centuries it has been recognized as
the grandest of all healing and body
building agents for wasted human
strength and vitality. -.
Yet, owing to the heavy, greasy Oil
which envelopes the medicinal elements.
and which has no value either as a food
or medicine, many patients weakened by
disease cannot digest it either in it's raw
form or an emulsion, and Others will not
take it on account OF it's disagreeable
odor and taste-consequently its value
is lost.
Now, the process discovered by two
eminent French Observation-Disclosures and
Gautier-should interest every person IN
Henderson, for all of the tonic, body
building and curative elements OF cod
liver oil are now separated from the
greasy, useless oil, and given to the PEG.
DIE in delicious Vinol. For this reason
it is fast surerseding Old-fashoned cod
liver oil and emulsions.
As body-builder and strength
creator for old people, weak women!
delicate children, and after sickness and
all pulmonary diseases, it is recon-
| mended by over 5000 OF the leading
druggists of the United States as ths
