A THORNLESS CACTUS
Grows in Southwest Texas in Great
abundance.

San Antonio. Texas, April To-
When Luther Burbank a year or 50
ago announced that he had succeed
ed in growing a thornless cactus
plant all the world wondered Some
time since explorers in the wild
country penetrated by Devils riv-
er in Southwest Texas discovered a
thornless variety of cactus of the
prickly pear type growing there in
great abundance. Some of these
plants have been transplanted in this
country and are growing and multi
plying rapidly. This variety of cac-
tus even with the thorns is eaten by
the cattle in times of drought and
when the thorns are burned off
makes a splendid food.
DR.. David Griffith of the United
States department of agriculture de-
clares that the cactus is acre for
acre better feed than hay, hence the
velopment of this thornless prickly
pear, which is said to be hardy
enough to crowd out the old horny
variety, will be a great Godsend to
the farmers of Southwest Texas.
This cactus is also being used in this
city to manufacture candy; it is also
used as a substitute for citron. A
number of farmers are planting this
cactus and experts declare a new
crop will be developed from it.

HIS HEART IS HEALING
MAN WITH THREE STITCHES IN
HEART BIDS FAIR TO

New York, April 10.-Robert In
glis, the young athlete who has been
in st. Joseph's hospital, Youkers.
since 2 O'Clock Sunday morning with
three stitches in his heart, is report
ed to be greatly improved apparent
ly. He tells his physicians he feels
very little pain in the heart which
his assailant's knife penetrated, and
this is taken as an indication that
the wound is healing. His case is now
looked upon as one of the most re-
markable in the history of the pro-
fession. The record before this case
was that of woman who lived
eighteen hours after a similar oper-
alton.

Increasing Yard Trackage.

Reference has been made a NUM-
ber of times to the work being done
here by the Trinity and Brazos VAL
ley toward increasing the yard fa-
cilities here for handling trains. This
work is being confined to the white
rock cut Just east of the city limits.
A large force of laborers has been
employed there for some time, and
several train loads of rock have
been taken out. This rock is being
used to strengthen the weak places
In the track between here and Cor
sicana. When the work of widening
the cut has been finished three side
tracks will be constructed, two on
the south side and one on the north
side of the main track. Coal chutes
will also be erected near the section
house. The grade for the spur to the
turn table has been completed, and
the mechanism for turning engines
will be installed in few days.

BRUTE ACCOSTS YOUNG GIRL IN
PUBLIC ROAD BUT Is
FRIGHTENED AWAY
HANGED ON THE SQUARE
Brutc Captured and Fully Identified
by Girl, and Negro Man Who
Came to Her Rescue.
Quick Work.

Longview, Texas, April 10.-At
about 6:15 yesterday evening, as
pretty May Morris, about II years
old, was coming home from a visit
to her neighbor, just outside the city
limits on a thickly settled county
road. but at the only stretch of near
ly a quarter of a mile of heavy
woods she was met by black, dirty
young negro about IS or 90 years
old, who asked her name, age and
weight and started to lift her up in
his arms to see how heavy she was.
The girl screamed and an old negro
man came up, when the negro ran
into the timber. He was unknown to
the young girl and the old negro,
but both said they could identify
him.
Miss May says the negro came into
the road from the woods working at
his suspenders, as if repairing them.
Two negroes, brothers, were arrest
ed soon after, but were turned loose
and the trail of negro driver was
taken up, whom it was sure was the
negro who was wanted.
Excitement was intense and a
great mob armed with all manner of
weapons filled the streets.
The members of the searching
party upon the trail of the negro
soon effected his capture. He was
found to be a negro named Albert
Field, and was carried back to town.
He was taken before the young girl,
who fully identified him, as did the
negro man who came to her rescue.
After being fully identified the ne
gro confessed that he was the cul-
prit who had accosted the girl.
He was taken to the courthouse
yard and mounted on a horse. A
rope was placed around his neck,
one end of which was affixed to a
branch of a tree, and the horse driv-
en- from under him, leaving him
dangling in the air. No shots were
fired. He was strung up at 1905
O'Clock, and Immediately thereafter
the mob, which consisted of several
hundred citizens who were unmask-
ed and orderly, dispersed, leaving
! the body of the black brute hang
ing.

HOUSE BILL ENACTED WITHOUT
AMENDMENT AND WITH
OUT DIVISION.
APPLIES TO RAILROADS
Effort to Substitute Measure Apply
ing TO All Forms of Common
Carriers Meets Failure
Many Amendments.

Washington, April 10.-The bill
relating to the liability of common
carriers by rail, passed by the house
of representatives April 6, was yes
terday passed by the senate without
amendment and without division.
The senate bill on the same sub
ject was not confined to railroads,
but covered all forms of common
carriers, and Senator Dolliver who
had reported it from the committee
on education and labor, sought to
substitute it for the house bill, but
his motion was defeated.
Numerous amendments were Of
fered to the bill, but all were voted
down.
AS passed, the bill is expected to
meet the objections of the supreme
court of the United States to the
common carriers liability law of
1906, decided to be unconstitutional
by that court.
The bill abolishes the strict COM
mon law liability, which bars a re-
covery for personal injury or death
of an employe occasioned by the
negligence of a fellow servant. 1t al
so relaXes the common law rule
which makes contributory negligence
a defense to claims for such injur-
les and permits an employe to recov-
er for an injury caused by the negli-
gence OF co-employe. The bill does
not bar recovery, even though the in
jured one contributed by his own
negligence to the injury. The amount
of the recovery, however, is dimin-
ished in the same degree that the
negligence of the injured one contri-
buted to the injury.

BASEBALL AT STATE COLLEGE.

State College. Pa, April 10
Pennsylvania State College Will
open its baseball season here tomor-
row, playing the nine of the Carne-
gle Technical school State College
has had for years one of the best
baseball teams in the college world,
and this season will be no exception.
AS usual the most important game
on the. schedule is that with Cornell.
In the last two years these two teams
have played the greatest games in
the history of college baseball. In
1906 the game went seventeen in
nings, and in 1907 it lasted sixteen
innings. State College was the win
ner in both games. Other contests

CERTAIN OF NEW YORK.
Republicans of that State VIII En-
dorse Hughes for President

New York, April 10.-Delegate
from upstate are beginning to drift
into the metropolis today in advance
of tomorrow's republican state con-
vention, which will doubtless be one
of the most important gatherings in
the history of the party in the En-
pire state. The action of the conven-
ton. in the opinion of astute politi-
clans, will go forward toward de-
termining how New York votes will
be cast in the coming presidential
election, and, in consequence,
whether the country will have re-
publican or democratic president.
New York republican leaders admit
that there is little likelihood of such
a walk-over for the party as that of
four years ago. In declaring for
Hughes as the standard bearer. New
! York republicans believe they can
go before the national convention
and assert: Nominate our can
didate and we will guarantee his
election" 1t is this spirit that ami
mates the delegates to tomorrow S
state convention, and it is now set
tied beyond doubt that New York s
delegates will present a united front
at Chicago in behalf of Governor
Hughes.
General Stewart L. Woodford,
President Jacob Gould Schurman of
Cornell, ex-Mayor Seth Low and ex-
| Governor Frank S. Black will prob
ably constitute the "big four" that
will lead New York's delegation to
Chicago.
Governor Hughes by common con-
sent has been accorded the privilege
of naming the big Four" None of

ruff and County Chairman Parsons
sidestepped responsibility, because
should they select the delegates they
would be bound to fight for Hughes
all the time, whereas if the Cover

can have only himself to blame in
case of break
The Governor wants men of the

ford to. represent him, instead of
practical politicians. The appearance
of Ex-Governor Black ON the slate
/ is attributed to the influence of men
; behind the Hughes state league
! George w. Aldredge and ex-senator
Brackett, chief officers of the league,
are expected to help Black, as will
the Odell forces. If Black should be
left off, it is likely that Bracket will
be put on. If Black goes from the
state-at-large it is expected that
Bracket will be one of the dele
gates from his congressional dis
trict.

ATTORNEY GENERAL DAVIDSON
IN WASHINGTON TO PRE-
SENT STATES SIDE.
VERY SERIOUS QUESTION
Right of Sovereign State to Admin
lister Its Own Antitrust laws
Without Federal In
ference.

Washington, April 9.-The case
of Bradley w. Palmer VS.. the State
OF Texas was submitted in the su-
preme court yesterday on written
an oral arguments, This case inyol-
| YES the power of the circuit court
t of the United States for Texas to ap-
/ point receiver for the Waters
| Pierce Oil company when a receiver
had before that time been appointed
| by the state district court of Travis
county,
When the federal court in Texas
appointed this receiver Attorney
General Davidson at once applied to
the court of civil appeals of Texas for
| a construction of the Texas law un-
! der which the state court had ap-
! pointed a receiver and for orders
and authority for the state receiver
| to demand from the federal receiver
! the property of the Waters-Pierce
company.
The court of civil appeals sustain
| ed the attorney general 5 contention
holding that the federal receiver was
not entitled to the property and that
the state courts still had exclusive
| jurisdiction, Notwithstanding the
pealed from the order of the state
court appointing a receiver
Attorney General Davidson then
applied to the federal court in Texas
for the property, which application
was refused. He then appealed from
that Judgment of refusal to the cir
cult court of appeals. which court
sustained the attorney general and
n a cd in, ta
discharge the receiver appointed by
IT. Mr. Palmer, stockholder of the
aters-Pierce company, obtained a
writ of certiorari from the supreme
court of the United States. This is
the case submitted today.
Attorney General Davidson repre-
sented the state and was assisted by
T. w. Gregory and G. W. Allen The
questions argued are not only of
great interest in this particular case,
but are of far-reaching Importance,
as they directly relate to the power
and jurisdiction of a state court to
enforce its own statutes without be-
ing hindered by the federal courts.
Counsel for the Waters Pierce
| company and Mr.. Palmer, one of its
stockholders, asserted among other
things that a federal receiver is nee
! essary, because the property would
/ be wasted and destroyed if 4 federal
receiver did not take charge, and
! that the employees and agents of the
oil company would be subjected to
all kinds of prosecutions under the
criminal laws of Texas for violation
of the antitrust laws.
/ The answer of the attorney gener-
! al to this was that the state court
and state receiver were as compe-
/ tent TO administer the property as
| the federal court or it's receiver; that
I the employees of the oil company
| would not be prosecuted If they com
/ piled with the Texas law
