BROWNSVILLE TO
CITY OF MEXICO
The New Line to the Capital City
of the Sister Republic.
The Mexican Government Has Blocked
the Plans of the Yoakum Syndicate
to Build to TampicO. and viii
Itself Construct the Line.

Some time ago THE HERALD
outlined the plan of the Mexican
Central railroad for building the
the new short line between the
City of Mexico and Brownsville
via. Tampico. The correspondent
of the Galveston News has sent the
following dispatch to his paper on
the subject from the City of Mex
leo:
The cutoff line which the
Mexican Central is building in or
der to give this city direct connec-
ton with the port of Tampico is to
be extended to the border of the
United States. It has been re-
ported for some time that this new
route to the States would be es-
tablished, and is now confirmed by
the official announcement that en-
gineers have been placed in the
field to survey the route between
Tampico and Matamoros. The
proposed route will connect with
the St Louis, Brownsville & Mex
leo by means of an international
bridge, which will be built jointly
by the two railroads across the Rio
Grande.
1t is planned to begin the con-
struction of the road as soon as the
survey is completed, and it is to be
finished in two years. More than
1000 men are now employed in the
construction of the Mexico City
Tampico cutoff, and by the first
of the coming year this force will
be increased to at least 5000. This
road to Matamoros will shorten the
distance by rail between this city
and the border by more than 200
miles By means of the St. Louis,
Brownsville and Mexico and its
connecting lines the distance be.
tween this city and all the princi-
pal cities in the central and eastern
sections of the United States will
be greatly reduced.
B. F. Yoakum aud his associates,
who own The St. L. B. & NJ, have
planned to extend that line down
the gulf coast from Matamoros to
Talnpico. The Mexican govern
ment has stepped in and blocked
this scheme by deciding to build
this new extension Of the Central
through this very same territory i.
1t will be an important and signif-
cant enlargement of the govern
ment railroad merger system.

WHY so WEAK2
Kidney Troubles May be Sapping
Your Life Away. Brownsville People
Have Learned This Fact.

When healthy man or woman
begins to run down without ap-
parent cause, becomes weak, Ian
guild, depressed, suffers backache,
headache, dizzy spells and urinary
disorders, look to the kidneys for
the cause of it all. Keep the kid
neys we'll and they will keep you
we'll. .Doan's Kidney Pills cure
sick kidneys and keep them well.
J. P. Anderson, carpenter, liv-
ing in the southern part of
Corpus Christi, Texas, says:
my Kidneys have given me more
or less trouble for the past two
years. A sharp twinge of pain at
times, darting through my back,
loins and the secretions were too
frequent and caused much annoy
ance, especially in the winter. My
son saw Doan's Kidney Pills adj
vertised and brought home a box.
I used them and obtained great
benefit. The action of the kidneys
was corrected and my back has
given me no trouble since. I can
recommend Doan's Kidney Pills
with pleasure.

by grade from the lower ranks, at
tanning In 1894 tho rank Of Lieut.
enant General. This was the year Of
Japan's war with China. and In that
conflict Kuroki commanded the Sixth
Division OF the invading army. It 10
related that bis division had been
scheduled to be the last one to be
embarked for the invasion Of China,
and that Kuroki ohafed so much over
the inaction that he fretted himself
into state Of illness. But imms-
diately the troops we're landed and
the smoke OF battle began to roll
from the front, all Of Kuroki's illness
vanished and hs joyously exclaimed: /:
"Ah, this makes me we'll again"
From the very beginning Of tho
war with Russia. Kuroki halted tho
worlds attention by the display Of
his military skill. Then 1t was that
people begun TO inquire more closely
about this warrior whose military
genius shone resplendent. Efforts
we're made TO trace his origin. and
although the inQuirers found little
assistance from the silent soldier. It
was finally ascertained that he was
OF Polish origin. A nephew OF tho
General. who was then pursuing his
studies in Europe. wrote a letter In
which he said that Kuroki's father
was Polish nobleman who had fed
from Russia after the revolution of
1891. This nobleman. whose name
was Kourowski, 6rst went 10 Paris,
aftcrward to Turkey. later Joining
the Holland troops In Borneo. From
Borneo he went to japan and there
married q Japanese. From the union
was born Kuroki. who because OF the
nationality OF his father. was nick
named THE Pole"
1t is said that the General is very
proud OF his Polish origin, and that
he has always cherised the dying
wish OF the father that the son would
some day be able TO take vengeance
on the Russians for their cruel treat
msnt OF unhappy Poland.
