VETERANS OF SAN JAclNTO.
A Dramatic Scene in the Texas Lesis.
 lature.

San Antonio, Texas, Feb. 22.-Two worn and battle-scarred veterans, AL phonse Steele and w P Zuber. sur vivors of the battle of San Jacinto, April 21, 1886, addressed the Texas legislature q day or so ago. Both of these men are nearly centenarians, and it was a picturesque climax when the state librarian entered the hall of leg islation carrying a stained and faded Mexican flag captured by the Texans under Sam Houston in that memora- able battle and spread it over the speakers stand, by which the two feeble old veterans stood, and told their stories of the battle
 MT. Zuber who is approaching nine ty. years of age, told of his frantic eff forts to get a good rifle after the bat tie began, his own having got out of order and would not diseharge. He said that he offered MT. Steele all the money he had in the world-s1O50- for his rifle. MT. tSeele who is 92 years of age and has 200 living de- scendants, gave a graphic description of the memorable charge made by the Texans early in the afternoon of April 21, 1886, which caught the Mexicans taking their afternoon nap, and scat tered them to the four winds Medals of honor were granted by the legisla- ture to these veterans who played such.

MURDERER FRANCO
 AT DOOR OF DEATH
It Is Not Thought He Will Live for Trial.

The chances are many against one that Vincente Franco, the murderer of Ramon Coronel. fourteen years ago, will not live to be tried It was not thought yesterday morning that he woud live through the day, though late in the day he was able to speak and seemed a little stronger, but 1t was re- regarded as possible that he might die within a few hours.
 He is supposed to be in an early stage of consumption. A few days ago he took a bad cold which kept getting worse until on Sunday night he was almost helpless and unable to speak. His breathing was a rattling in the throat and chest and it seemed that any breath might be his last. He grew worse through the night, and yesterday forenoon. but about o'clock he could make his wants known in a whisper.
 The physician in attendance said that though he might recover from the present attack he could not live more than three or four months.
 But if he lives, it is improbable that there will be a trial. or. if one. 1t will be a formal affair for he has already confessed to the murder of Coronel, though it is not believed that there were any such extenuating circum stances as Franco set forth in his con fession. If he should live for trial, in quiry will probably be made on that point for determining the degree of punishment which would be imposed.

A DISORDERED STOMACH
 MEANS BAD BLOOD

Nine times in ten, stomach, de- engagements are responsible for sallow complexion, dull eyes, thin body and cOlorless cheeks.
 It is the stomach that supplies nourishing blood to the muscles, the nerves, and skin. If the stomach is healthy, plenty of nutritious matter will be absorbed by the blood. If it is not healthy, the food will fer ment and, undigested, will pass along through the bowels, furnishing so little nutritious matter that the blood becomes impoverished, and the glow of health vanishes.
 If you suffer from nervousness, sick headache, belching of gas, sour taste in the mouth, heaviness after eating heartburn, foul breath, or any other miserable stomach disturbance, get rid of 1t now by using Mi-o-na, the mighty cure for indigestion. and the sooner you get it the quicker you will be healthier and happier.
 It will relieve any distressed stom- ach condition almost immediately It will make eating a joy. You can eat

ing the performance, as it makes the stage mussy for the next turn.
 A great secret has been made about one or two of the numbers, but as no one has mentioned these, except to his most intimate friends, it Is known by this time that Phoenix will be given an insight into the parts of the initiation that are really given to joining parties. One member, on the street, the other day, announced that he was to have a prominent part in the show, and said 1t proudly Yesterday he was asked about what he was to do, and he re- piled. with some heat: Not a thing. You hear me? I was a goat once. but it was to get in. 1 am not going through that again to make any one laugh Oh, they told me what they were going to do, and they told me in a sweet, soft voice, but I saw the look in their eyes, so not for me. The man that does that part on the first night of the show, had better have an understudy. You hear mel He'll not be there the second night; that's a cinch.''
 It really looks as if something would be doing.

oEFAcINe A SCHOOL BUILDING.

To the Editor of The Republican:
 Sir:-The attention of the school board is most respectfully called to the decorations that are being placed on the high school walls and buildings. I would suggest that a few of the young students be put to work making brick, or some work of the kind, that would use up all of their surplus ener- gy that they cannot find use for at school
 The people of this school district have elected a school board which is supposed to have full charge of the buildings and grOundsS and which is supposed to conduct the school affairs for the best interests of all This it is not doing when it tolerates any such conduct as some of the high school pupils are guilty of.

 Last year they called to their assist ance endless numbers of charming young ladies. who made a stage pie ture not soon to be forgotten. but the Elks this year are going to endeavor to amuse the public all by their little lonelies. This time it will be a variety show that is to be offered, and the idea is to have no one appear on the stage who is not an Elk. so that if any cow puncher resents the performance the following day, he may shoot any man wearing an Elks' head and be sure of discharge on the grounds of justifiable homicide.

BIG LOCOMOTIVES.
Most Powerful Ever Built Are Now
Completed.


Completed.
The Baldwin Locomotive Works
have recently completed for the
Southern Pacific company two Mallet
articulated compound locomotives,
which are undoubtedly the heaviest
engines thus far built for any rail-
way. These locomotives have eight
coupled wheels in each group, and
in accordance with the previous prac-
tice Of the builders, are equipped
with two-wheeled leading and trail
ing trucks. The constructive details
embody various features Of special
interest. The calculated tractive force
Of this design is 94,640 pounds. The
locomotives will be used on the Sa-
and Truckee, where the maximum
grade Is 116 feet per mile, and the
rating 1912 tons Of cars and lading.
The enormous size of the engine
will be readily appreciated from a
study of the following dimensions.
The high pressure cylinders are &c
inches diameter by 80 inches stroke;
and by low pressure cylinders, 40
inches diameter by 80 inches stroke.
The boiler is 81 inches diameter; the
frebox is 10 feet inches; the fire
tubes, 81 feet long; and the feed
water heater tubes, feet 3 inches
long. The total heating surface Is
6,393 square feet. The steam pres
sure is 200 pounds to the square inch.
The total weight on drivers is 394 $50
pounds; the total weight of engine is
425,900 pounds; and the engine and
tender together weigh just under 800
tons. The maximum pull on the
drawbar is Al tons.
The boiler is straight-topped, "a
inches in diameter, and is equipped
for oil burning. The fire tubes are
21 feet long; they terminate in a COM
bustion chamber, 54 inches long, in
front of which is a feed-water heater
63 inches in length. Two non-lifting
injectors are provided, and they dis
charge, right and left, into the feed
water heater chamber, which is kept
constantly filled with water. The
feed passes out through the top of
the chamber, and is then delivered
into the main barrel through two
checks, placed right and left imme-
diately back of the front tube sheet.
A superheater, placed i'm the piping
system between the high and low
pressure cylinders, is located in the
smokebox.
In order to facilitate repairs, the
boiler is provided with separate
joint, which is placed at the rear end
of the combustion chamber. The
joint is effected by riveting ring to
each boiler section, and uniting the
rings by forty-two bolts, II inches In
diameter.

Humorous department.

A Stroke of Fortune.-It was a MUIR
ky day in August, and the old sea cap
tains were talking of schooner which
had been struck by lightning a few
days before, and adding their contribu-
tions to nautical fiction, thinly dis
euised as fact. How about the Emma
s. Capt. Eli?" asked the privileged lis
tener at last. Wasn't she struck
once?"
"She was, sir" and Capt. Ell fixed
his gaze on a crack in the ceiling OF the
old wharf office. "She was, indeed, on
the Cape; home'ard bound, she was"
I'D like to hear the particulars,
said the young man, and all the cap
tains moved in their seats and hxeo
their eyes on the crack, which held the
gaze of Capt. Eli.
"'Tisn't much to tell, only what
might happen to any vessel unoer
similar circumstances" said Capt ELL
"a bolt struck the deck amidships
and bored a hole right down through
the bottom O. the schooner big as a

He Didn't See II.

At a recent dinner in London the
conversation turned to the subject OF
lynching in the United States. 1t was
the general opinion that a large per-
centage of Americans met death at the
end of a rope. Finally the hostes;
turned to an American who had taken
no part in the conversation and said:
You, sir, must have often seen these
affairs"
yes" he replied, I'VE take a kind OF
municipal pride in seeing which City
can show the greatest number OF
lynchings yearly"
"Oh, do tell us about a lynching you
have seen yourself" broke in half
dozen voices at once.
"The night before l sailed for Eng
land" said the American, Il was giving
a dinner at hotel to a party OF init
mate friends when a colored waiter
spilled a plate of soup over the gown
of a lady at an adjoining table. The
gown was utterly ruined, and the gen.
tleman of her party at once seized the
waiter, tied a rope around his neck, and
at a signal from the injured lady
swung him into the air"
"Horrible!" said the hostess with q
shudder. "And dill you actually see
this yourself?"
well, no." admitted the American
apologetically. Just at that moment

chef for putting mustard in the blanc

A Confusing Title.-"As entered tn:

the coastwise steamships on my last
trip south I was startled to find the

parel," said a commercial traveller
who had just returned to town. 81
Immediately sought out the purser OF
the boat and told him he must have
made some mistake in alloting the
rooms, as the person he had put ir
mine was undoubtedly a woman, if
might judge by her belongings.
We'll, well!" he exclaimed, much
excited. There must be some mis-
take. Let's look at the passenger
list"
Examination of the list showed my
name and that of Major White as
the occupants of the same room. The
purser and l went to the stateroom,
and there in the doorway stood a
mild-eyed young woman. When the
purser asked her if that was her room
she glanced at him casually and le-
piled that it was.
But objected the officer, L have
