PURI.JC HAS RIGHT TO KNOW.

The legislature at its mex session
ought to enact law making it COM
pulsory upon all railroads to prompt-
ly bulletin information about
wrecks. This rule is followed volun-
tarily by many railroads outside OF
Texas and some within the state,
and 1t ought to be compulsory upon
all .................
A case in point is the Katy wreck
near San Marcos Wednesday morn
ing A number of persons were more
or less seriously injured, yet for
hours afterward the railroad officials
gave out no information A tele-
gram from Austin said the officials
there refused to make public a list
of injured persons
The railroad is not the only party

three and one-half miles northeast of
Waxahachie, Texas, says: The case
which led me to publicly endorse
Doan's Kidney Pills over three years
ago was one of kidney weakness, A
member of my family had very weak
kidneys and Was aua6ie to control
the action of these organs. The Sc
cretions were scanty. highly colored
and full of sediment. The doctors
medicines failed to give any relief
and We had almost given up hopes
OF ever being able to cure the COM
plant when Doan's Kidney Pills
were brought to our attention, We
bought supply at B. W. Fearis'
drug store and the contents of three
boxes made complete cure. Only on
one occasion since then has there
been any return of the trouble At
that time the contraction Of cold
was the cause, but | am glad to say
that one box of Doan's Kidney Pills
completely eradicated the attack. |

JOAN OF ARCS PRISON.
Foundation Of Ancient Tower Dug Out
in Convent Grounds at Rouen.

'" NV S'Obtoo az TOuCIis
The prison of Joan OF Arc has just
been located near Rouen. The foun-
dations of the ancient tower in which
it was to have been discovered and
opened up through some new con
struction work undertaken by the gov
eminent in the grounds of the Ursu-
line convent, from which the nuns
have recently been expelled.
The workmen in digging for the
new foundation came upon q massive
wall enclosing a circular space with
. diameter OF about thirty feet. When
this was cleared OF earth a well was
found in the center measuring six feet
2cross and about thirty feet in depth.
Water rose in it clear and cold as
Don as the earth had been cleared
away from the bottom.
When the antiquarians got busy
hey identified the wall as the founda-
ION Of a building which was known
or ages as The Maids Tower" A
document dating back to 1871 WIS
produced, which. taking it for granted
hat this tower had been the prison
of the Maid of Orleans 210 years pre-
%yiously, gave a description and meas
urements Of it, including the well,
which Enthusiastically watch the ruins
just exhumed.
The structure appears to have stood
unchanged from the death of Joan in
1881 to 1890, when it was reduced to
ruins in the course of a siege. In
1869 the city leased the site on which
the ruin stood to Louis Mouchard.
In 1880 he appears to have stopped
paying the rent, The greater part of
the ruin was cleared away about this
time, but as late as 1889 a visitor
writing about the place mentions the
foundation Of the tower as visible and
speaks of the well. After that it was
filled in with earth and later the site
became part of the nuns garden and
the existence of the ruin and the ira
dition attaching to it were forgotten.

FIRST AMERICAN GLASS.
Made at a Factory Built by a Boston
Man In New Hampshire Town.

Made at a Factory Built by a Boston
Man In New Hampshire Town.
The first American glass factory
was erected in the town OF Temple,
N. II. Washington, In his diary,
speaks Of glass being made In New
Haven. Conn. IN the year 1889.
One would suppose by the language
he uses that he considers 1t a new
and quite extraordinary affair. II
was nine years previous to this, and
during the very war whose issue first
enabled the country to commence its
own manufacturing, that Robert
Hewes of Boston began to carry out
the project which he had long con
ceived, but had hitherto found imprac.
ticable, if not impossible, under Eng.
lish rule-that OF making glass in
America for America.
In 1880 Mr.. Hewes selected a site
for his factory secure from the British
forces (his glassblowers were Hes
SLAMS and Waldeckers-soldiers who
had deserted from the British army,
and he must have had an eye for the
beautiful in nature. He chose a spot
on the north slope of kidder Noun
tain, near its base. To the northwest
Mount Monadnock rears his granite
crown. standing like a giant sentinel;
to the north, and running east, are the
Temple mountains, bold and precipi-
tOus; TO tie east a beautiful valley

ing COWS and nature loving tourists.
The stone work about the ovens and
he foundations of the building are
that now remain to remind us that
here was another example of the
American peoples struggle for indie
p~endence.

Orthodox Christianity's Alli=
anCe With Mental Healing


All that Is necessary is TO get into the
proper receptive condition.
Mrs. j. J. Higgins, the young wife
of a well known physician and sur
geon in New York, who holds bi-week-
ly clinics in the parish house at Cal
vary Protestant Episcopal church,
treating the poor from philanthropic
motives by %hypnotism, firmly believes
that the thing that heals is a mag
netic current in the body which is
started in motion through auto sug-
gestion.
DR.. Frederick Van Eeden of Walden.
Holland, who started the first clinic
for the treatment of disease by hyp-
notism some thirty years ago in Am.
sterdam, agrees hat it Is a remedy
tina every one holds within them
selves and that any person can learn
to cure himself as well as one anoth-
err. but won't commit himself to the
extent of explaining the scientific side
OF the question.
DR.. Macdonald, when seen at his
pleasant study. talked freely and earn
estly on the subject which is so near
to his heart. That he firmly believes
in the efficacy Of the new movement
Is without a doubt. He is a fine type
OF man, with a strong, earnest face
and a pair Of clear brown eyes that
inspire confidence IN any one. who
goes to him for help.
"A number of elements 20 to effect

wei known that the emotions have a

enve upon the nervous system and the
digestive organs and the action Of the

ment results inevitably.
"On the contrary, II love, Joy and
peace pervade the soul the entire body
responds to these health restorers and
a normal state of our functional life
results.
Once the patient has unburdened
himself by confessing his follies and
indulgences that bind him to his pres
ent diseased condition, then is his
mind open to receive the suggestion
of the new life and the message OF
God and faith and hope.
"a new train OF thought is estab-
lished, the mind is free and the soul at
peace, and the bodily functions previ-
ously hampered are now restored in
time to their normal action, while the
mind Is filled with the new thought
that Christ Is a power for the cure of
the body as well as the soul. Then
the patient improves rapidly"
DR.. Q%uackenbos has no hesitancy
In asserting that it is only through the
subsection OF the subliminal mind that
cures can be made.

Few Desertions From the Mexican
Army.

Instances of desertion from the
army in Mexico are very rare and for
the best of reasons" said Senior Jose
de Minaldez of Nueva Leon. 1.-THE
reason lies in the almost sure capture
of the fugitive and the certainty that
he will get not one but numerous
f1oggings on his bare back. These
lashings are done in the presence of
the comrades Of the deserter, and
when the men see how great is the
suffering Of the miserable wretch who
tried In vain to quit his military obli-
cations, they are forced to conclude
that it is better to stick to the army
than undergo such a terrible ordeal"

Notwithstanding there was an election
on Nov. 8. the next president of the
United States has not yet been elected.
The people of each State have merely
chosen a set of electors, aud these electors
do not meet until the second Monday in
January, when they ASSEMBLE in their
State capitals and ballot for president and
vice president. Each of these assemblies
is called an electoral college, and there
are as many electoral colleges as there are
States. the territories and the District of
Columbia having no presidential vote.
After the voting certified copy is sent
by special messenger to Washington. and
on the second Wednesday in February
Congress meets to count the votes aud to
announce the election.

The republican papers claim that the
recent sweeping victory of Taft was an
endorsement of the policies of the party
and the methods pursued in Congress,
and are intimating that the dilatory tao.
tics which have been the chief feature Of
preceding Congresses will be continued,
as the same leaders are in control. This
makes it plain there is no hope for
remedial legislation, promised during the
campaign, and that the tariff revision is
to be OF the gold brick order. No one is
disappointed, as it is well known fact
nothing in the way of legislation in the
interest of the people can be forced
through Congress while that body is con-
stituted as at present.
