 the lights were turned on they were admitted as rapidly as pos sible, but twenty or thirty min utes were required to clear the way and, before this feat was accomplished the white patrons of the house had arrived. and

 no one was especially to blame If the transformer had not burn ed out it, wouldn't have happened.

NEWS OF TEXARKANA.

A burglar visited the residence of Mir. G. A. Hays corner of 9th anl Walnut streets, and although he ransacked the premises pretty thoroughly, but little, if anything of value was taken. In one of the rooms two or three good over coats were examined, also a fur cloak valued at $150 belonging to Mrs. Hays, but none of these articles were taken. It is thought however that the burglar may have been frightened away and to this is attributed his failure to take any spells with him.

THE UPSET TO THE NAVAL PRO-
 CRAM

Naval opinion, as shown by reports from Washington. charges the upset ting of the battleshiP program by the action of the house committee to shrewd salesmanship on the part of the submarine interests. IL was cer- tainly significant of some such influ- ence that double the number Of sub marines recommended by the depart ment is provided for in the bill. It is known that Pacific coast members have worked to secure a large num- Der of these craft to be located per manently in their harbors. The patents which control them place submarines in a different class from other con- structiOn, and the navy men are keen tc discover cat in the meal. The popular imagination with respect to the prowess of submarine torpedo boats is reflected in congress. The naval authorities, for some time. have had to combat the notion that, if the country possessed a lot Of these little boats, it would need no battleships and could save millions of money, with no sacrifice of security to the national de- fence

BRYAN'S ILL LUCK

The tried and true friends of MT. Bryan believe that his golden moment has come in the country's financial depression. The situation now and whatever it may be when the presi- dential campaign is opened will only show that MT. Bran as usual is at the right place at the wrong time.
 Hard times have now and then re- suited in political overturnings. A majority of the voters have often giv- en expression to an opinion that change of policies will restore good times. But Mir. Bryan and his friends are advocating no change of the pres ent program. but rather the carrying of it further
 If the national republican conven- ton should determine in favor of a continuation of the present regime, Mir. Bryan by his effusive and cOntin- nous approval O. it, and his frequent accusations against President Roose- Welt of grand or petty larceny. will be estopped from appealing to the voters for a change
 If the republican convention should decide that the couptry needs some thing else rather than moral uplifting, that decision may be regarded as a sign O. a veerins sentiment among democrats as well as republicans for both alike are effected by good and bad times
 The opposition to Mir. Bryan within his own party will be as strong as it was !n 1906 and 1900. Those who ig- nored his free silver heresy may be counted upon to dissent from his ad- vanced sdcialistic doctrines.
 It may be questioned whether any other democrat would he q stronger candidate than MT. Bryan, but at this distance v,e can see none wko would be. An other would fail of a large number of democratic votes which only Bran can command. In any contingency it is doubtful if they could be made good by the attraction of safe and sane" democratic votes which MT. Bran cannot command.
 It does not appear to be in the cards for the democrats to win this year. There are other years, but then il must be remembered that Mir. Bryan is still a comparatively young man. He may be regarded as eligible by age for at least three more campaigns and so. for three more terms the country may assure itself of republican domi- nation.

Epilepsy, Fits

Every part of the body has its nerves. It's the channel through which energy-nerve force is transmitted. If too much nerve force goes to a part, it is irritated, causing pain, congestion, spasms, fits, epilepsy, etc. If not enough it is enfeebled, and if none at all paralysis results. Dr. Miles Nervine soothes the nerves, as sists the nerve cells to generate nerve force, and in this way re- stores nervous energy.
