VISITORS TO NEW YORK
Want to See the Bowery-Many Are
Doomed to Disappointment.

New York, Aug. 19-One of the
first sights that the stranger to Goth
am asks to see is the Bowery. He has
read so many stories of the wicked
ness of the place that he seldom
cares to make the trip alone. His dis
appointment is great, however, for the
Bowery of today and the Bowery of
ten years ago about which the stories
are told are far different places. To
be sure there are sights to be seen,
but the average stranger seldom gets
behind the scenes, and consequently
carries away with him only the i'm
preston of a business street lined
with small shops and crowd of poor
ly dressed East Siders. Possibly,
however, aside from the numerous his
toric spots, the signs that are dis
played on the different buildings in
terest him most. One of the signs
common to the cheap barber shops
reads: "First-class shave, five cents;
with clean towel, ten cents" An
other that is displayed on some of the
small restaurants is Dinner ten
cents; He'll of a gorge fifteen cents"

DISCRIMINATING Mosquitoes.

San Antonio, Texas, Aug. 19.-Al-
though San Antonio is freer from mos

the south, the city health board is so
proud of its success in making war on
this disease breeding insect that it
believes they can be stamped out en-

of determination. In two weeks they

HOW is YOUR STOMACH?
Easy Way to Strengthen It and Get
Well.

A good digestive system, one that
acts SO that you do not know that you
have stomach, is Gods birthright to
every man-to every woman.
If digestion is weak, if food turns
into gas, if you suffer after eating, if
yau are sleepless, nervous and out of
sorts-then the stomach is diseased
and prompt action should be taken.
w. A. Ennis, well known builder
in Syracuse, tells an easy way to
strengthen the stomach and get we'll
when he writes: "Mi-o-na Stomach
Tablets have done more for me in one
week than all the doctors the two
years l was under their care. Thanks
to Mona, l can work once more, the
first time in over year"
1t is an easy thing to strengthen
the stomach and cure indigestion by
using Mi-o-na. Get a SO cent. box

guarantee to refund the money unless
the remedy does all that is claimed
for it.

NEW AUTOMOBILE LAW.
Prevents Autoists From Using Shaded
Roads In Central Park, New
York, Says a Dispatch.

New York, Aug. 19.-These are
troublesome days for automobilists in
Manhattan who like to drive their ma
chimes through the shaded roads in
Central Park. A new law recently
passed forbits the owners of smoky,
leaky and ill-smelling machines from
using the parks highways and this
together with the old law against over
speeding has apparently removed for
many the last incentive to automobile.
So far there have been several Of
tenders in spite of the wide publicity
given to the new ordinance, but all of
them have been dismissed with a rep
rimand The new law will make the
park much more enjoyable to the
thousands who go there daily for rest
and quiet. This low, together with
the crusade that is being conducted
against all unnecessary noise in the
city is meeting with the greatest ap-
proval among New Workers. While
the city is far from enjoying the peace
full stiffness that characterizes a small
New England village on Sabbath af-
ternoon, still it is believed that if the
laws are enforced the conditions can
be greatly improved.

COMPANY INCORPORATED
To Build Interurban Road From PaIes
tine to corsicana-The Capt.
tai Is 100000.

The following item is reproduced
from yesterdays Corsicana Sun, and
shows that the interurban proposition
is still alive:
The Manufacturers Record of the
18th inst, gives the following informa-
ton which will be read with interest
here:
THE Central Texas Traction COM
pany has been incorporated under the
laws of Delaware to build its proposed
line from Corsicana to Palestine, Tex
as. The capital is 100000 and the in
corporators are ]. j. Sears of Aledo,
Texas; DR.. j. o. Howard of Houston,
Texas; w. w. Clopton and j. V. Wat
kins of Corsicana, Texas, and Harry
w. Davis. The line is to be about rs
miles long, including main stem
from Corsicana to Palestine, and
branch to Fairfield. Mr.. Watkins,
with Geo. A. Duren, civil engineer,
was recently reported to be investi-
eating the route
In connection with the above it can
be said that Mr.. Watkins and Mr..
Duren in an automobile driven by Ro-
land Martin went over the route
about two weeks ago. Therefore, in
view of the statements of facts given
by the Manufacturers Record and the
route having actually been recently
gone over by Mr.. Watkins with Civil
Engineer Duren, it must be admitted
that the prospects for the long-talked
of interurban to Palestine are bright
ening, and that the foundation for
its building has been laid on a more
substantial foundation than ever be-
