HISTORIC STAGE COACH.
Has Been Secured for Feature Of San
Antonio Battle of Flowers April II.

The following will be interesting
reading to everybody in the
nsville-Corpus Christi coun-
try:
In the Battle of Flowers on next
Saturday there will be an historic
feature of more than ordinary in
terest. This will consist of an old
stage coach. the property of the
late Captain Mifiin Kennedy, the
pioneer ranchman of Nueces coun-
ty, and it will be in charge of the
Albert Sidney Johnston camp of
the United Confederate Veterans.
The veterans will be mounted on
horseback and will ride alongside
the coach.
Since the death of Captain Ken
edy the coach has become the prop
erty of his daughter, Miss Sarita
y. Kennedy. The coach was built in
Concord, N. H. in 1862 and was
cold to Captain Kenedy at that
time by H. E. Woodhonse, mer-
chant at Brownsville. The coach
has been used as means of trans
portation in the early days through
the mountains in the vicinity of
.Cerralvo and Monterey. Mexico,
and has made many a long, dry,
overland drive through the sandy
prairies. This coach has seen some
rough experiences and has carried
some distinguished persons during
its days of usefulness. 1t has fgur-
ed in several hold-ups. On one oc-
sasiCn it was attacked during the
revolutionary days at Matamoros
and a shell was exploded which
tore away the two front wheels of
the coach. Material for replacing
the wheels had to be brought from
New Hampshire.
Later the coach was held up by ,
highwaymen and in the melee that
followed Senior Don Policarpio Cas-
tillo of San Fernando was killed.
1t was held up again on a trip
north from Matamoros and later
with one lady passenger it was
again held up. /
The coach formerly made over
and trips between Matamoros and
Corpus Christi and San Antonio
md among the passengers it has
,arried are mentioned General
Hamilton P. Bee, Old
Rip Ford, General Magruder, Col
mel Reid, Francis J. Heron,
steele, McCook, Reynolds and
3elknap, Prominent Mexicans who
lave ridden in this coach are Don

Cure catarrh BY Breathing Hyomei
Sold Under Guarantee.

The only scientific and common
sense way TO treat catarrh Of the nose
and throat is by local application
that will kill the catarrhal germs.
Ordinary stomach dosing Is worse
than useless. Taking medicine into
the stomach to cure catarrh of the
head can have no good effect. and
often leads to serious arrangement
of the digestive organs.
By breathing Hyomei three or four
times daily through the neat pocket
inhaler that comes with every outfit,
its medicated, healing air penetrates
to the most remote parts of the nose,
throat and lungs, searches out and
kills all catarrhal germs. and soothes
and heals any irritation In the mu.
cous membrane.
E. G. Murphey has faith in the
wonderful merit of Hyomei as cure
for catarrh is shown by the guarantee
he gives with every Hyomei outfit
that the money will be refunded un-
less the treatment gives satisfaction.
A complete Hyomei outfit, consist
ing of pocket inhaler, bottle OF
Hyomei and a medicine dropper. costs

Surf Railing Ahrnnd

Unlike Americans, Englishmen pre-
fer TO have their surf bath before
breakfast. They slip out of their
rooms and into the surf as a sort Of
duty and prefer a buff bath, or one
without the incumbrance Of a bathing
suit if they can be permitted TO enjoy
it. With them the bath, even In the
breakers, is more Of a duty than a pas
time, as It Is with the French and
Americans. Neither do the people Of
