It requires a great amount of endur- ance and no little spirit of daring to make the ascent of Popocatepetl. Of the hundreds of Americans who visit this city during the winter tourist sea son. only a few of them have had the hardihood to scale the heights of the rugged mountain. which Is situated only sixty miles away. few Amer ican women have made the ascent
 Those who have reached the sum nit say that it is a journey well worth the hardships which are encountered in making 1t. From that great height. on a clear day. the view Is magnificent. Mexico City and the beautiful valley of Mexico lie at the foot of the mountain.

SYSTEM WILL NOT WIN
IN ROULETTE GAME

The unique gambling contest be-
tween Sir Hiram Maxim and Lord
Rosslyn came to an end this after
noon and shows defeat for the system
advanced by the latter, says a dis
patch from London.
Earl Rosslyn declared he had a
system by which the Monte Carlo bank
could be beaten. Sir Hiram Maxim
insisted that no system could beat the
bank of Monte Carlo and as a result
Of their friendly argument, Sir Hi
ram accepted a challenge from the
Earl. Tae stakes were 100000 in
stage money. Sir Hiram acted as
banker and the earl started with $50
600 capital. The game commenced
September 10 and ended today.

Every state in the union is vitality
interested in the Trans Mississippi
Commercial congress, which is to be
held in san Francisco October to
IA. The object Of this commercial
congress is along the line Of the meet
ing held last spring at the direction
OF President Roosevelt for all the
governors Of the various states. While
this is strictly speaking, a western
movement, every state Is to be repre-
sented II is the free forum Of the
western states
The meeting this year will be Of
exceptional interest because Of the
subjects before the body to be dis
cus.ed. These include Irrigation and
D~oivare "River and Harbor I'M
proyements," statehood" Parcels
p.-' and Postal Banks" "Trans-Pa
cifIc Trade" "Closer Relations With
the Latin Republics" Interstate
Commerce" and other equally import
ant subjects
A special committee has been ap-
pointed to thrash out the material
dealing with the inland waterways.
The one topic absolutely prohibited
is political questions. This being
election year It was feared that poll
tics might enter into this to a con-
siderable extent and the president, ].
y. Case, has definitely put his foot
down on any such movement. Moth
ing bearing on political questions will
be allowed before this congress.
The meeting will be Of special in
terest at this time because It is the
first convention to be held in this city
since the earthquake. The governors
Of 30 states have already been ap-
pointed delegates and most Of them

pulled down the curtains, and told the
driver to break all records driving
to the nearest railroad station.
once Dr. Peyton thought It was
joke because he is a remarkable dou-
BILE of William Jennings Bryan, but
after being routed out Of New Ha-
ven train coming from Boston to New
York at midnight, pushed to the back
platform, cheered and asked 20 deliv-

was time to change his looks.
DR.. Peyton would not have worried
so much over the loss Of s:eep, but
yesterday he was caught in the Cafe
Martin. and a score Of men Insisted
on shaking hands with him. During
the excitement DR.. Peyton lost d
watch fob, and that was too much
thus the haircut and a new mustache.

A GOOD STOMACH.
Means Good Health, Cheerfulness,
Ambition. Perslstency and Success.

Relief is not cure; opium will stop
the most circulating pain, but 1t
won't cure the disease.
And It's just the same with alleged
dyspepsia cures which contain pep
sin. The pepsn will help to digest the
food, but the stomach Is left in
worse condition than 1t was before.
You don't want pepsn to digest
your food; you want the natural julc-
es of your stomach to digest your
food. If you have dyspepsia or any
stomach trouble you want your stom-
ach so strong that 1t will digest its
own food,
You can make your stomach so
strong that you can eat what you
want and all you want any time you
want without distress
Mi-o-na will cure your dyspepsia
or any stomach trouble by building
up the flabby walls, and making the
stomach so strong that 1t will digest
food without artificial aid.
In other words Ml-o-na cures dys-
pepsia by removing the cause.
Tallman & Co. are the agents for

The Trans Mississippi Commercial
congress is backed by some of the
strongest men in the country. Its
history dates back to the first season
at Galveston, Texas, in 1891. w. NJ.
Fishback Of Arkansas was its first
president. Since then meetings have
been held annually and presidents
elected. Among the prominent men
who have been at the head of the
Trans Mississippi Commercial con-
gress are: William Jennings Bryan,
David r. Francis of Missouri, Colonel
Loveland of California, George A.
Mcconnell of Idaho, f. O. Standard Of
Mississippi John Henry Smith Of
Utah and other equally prominent
men.
The enthusiasm aroused over the
country is due to a large extent to
the energy and ability Of its president,

FOUNDATION
Of BUILDING
1t is Found In Center of the
Street in Front of New
City Hall.

The brick foundation OF a building,
which at one time stood in the center
of what Is now jefferson street, was
found yesterday when force of men
were at work grading that street in
front OF the city hall.
For several days men with scrapers
have been at work cutting away the
street so that il will be on a level
with the sidewalks, and yesterday af-
ter getting about IL inches below the
surface brick foundation was struck.
After removing all of the earth is
was found that it extended for a dis
lance of about ten or fifteen yards.
Some of the old residents say that
the brick was a portion of a fence
which enclosed a Catholic church.
which at one time occupied the site of
the present city hall, and that Jeffer-
son street at that time was only an
alley, occupying the space between
the yard and the Plaza, about twelve
feet.
The workmanship was evidently of
a superior kind, as the brick whe
struck by the scrapers would break
before the mortar would give.

By AssocIatec pre..

New York, Feb. 2T.-The National
League baseball schedule which was
issued today, calls for two more
games than the one isCued by the
American League yesterday. Although
the National League season ends one
day earlier than the American. moth
open April II.
Like the American schedule. the
eastern and western clubs of the Ma
uona League open in their own terri
tories. Conflicting dates in the two
league cities are more numerous in
the National schedule that in the
american, New York being the only
city free from these.
The National Baseball Commission
finished its business today by adopt-
ing and amending the rules relating
to the purchase OF players. The pre-.
rogative so long held by pitchers. to
soil the bail before putting it into
play, received its death blow today.
As the rule now stands. pitcher
can only soil the ball with his hands.
II was also decided that sacrifice
hits should be credited to the bats

when but one man is ont, hits 4 fly

their plucky opponents set them a

which was fast and snappy and met
with abundance OF applause at the

court, were both well filed with enthu-

The u. M. S. and Y. NJ. G. a. boys

of play.
Pensacola's size soon began to tell,
and she carried the ball more easily
each minute to her territory, and the
II. NJ. s. boys had TO work hard TO
even get it near their goal.
The playing was fast and many
good throws were made. Pensacola
