i rectal disease reeeufly stated that
fihe Pyramid Pilo Cure the new dis -
coveryior tne cure or piles was the
most remarkable remedy he had
r . .
i MJiju or irimi in one respect;
and that was the instant Telief ex-
perienced in all cases no matter
how severe from the moment the
remedy was applied. This was the
the more surprising to him because
he had carefully analysed the pro-
XCTxsioKiODGM.Ddration aud no trace of oninrn. no-
c ' '
came or similar poison couid be
detected .
Physicianslook with great favor
'upon the Pyramid Pile Cure be
cause it is rapidly taking place of
surgical operations and because it is
so simple so easily applied and con-
tains no mineral or other poisons so
commonlymsed in cures.
Dr. Eaterbook reports that the
Pyramid Pile Oare not only cures
the various forms of piles but never
fails to give immediate rolief on tile
first application no matter how se-
vere the pain or discomfort may be.
People wMio have suffered from
piles for years are often astonished
at the iustant relief eiDOrienced
important advantage is tlie fact that
anyone can use the remedy without
detention from business or inter-
ference - with daily occupation.

Your reDort states" tnat a
squa& was detailed to go iti
pursuit of these men and that
the boundary Hne between this
country aud Mexico did not
stop them and that they cross-
ed the river with side arms
displayed. You are in error
in stating that the squad was
detailed to go in their pursuit
for ft was unknown at the
tirnejthe various squads w.ere
sent out ;what direction the
fugitives haditaken. You are
in error when you state that
they crossed the river with
their side arms prominently
displayed. Neither of the sol-
diers who crossed the river
were armed but " left their
arms at the bridge. Nor wa"s
an arrest made in Mexico but
the men were hot put 'under"
arrest until they reached the
post.
I do hot know who" the? in-
formant of the Times is in re j
gard to this matter but here
after in treatingof matters that
concern two nations it would
be well to g find out the facts
before talking so confidential-
ly on ; questions that reecon n
other people more than hinf
self. However the prisoners
were captured and now are
safe andjon their way to trial
at San Antonio Texas. Very
respectfully C.M.Curetox
Post Sergeant Major.
In connection with the above
the 1 Times will say that It is
.very easy to make errors
when misinformed by a source
thoroughly reliable. However
the error which is considered
materially important is in re-
gard to the- detail wearing
sidearms to Nuevo Laredo
and it was natural for our in-
formant to have made this
error for the squad marched
down the hill and to the bridge
with sidearms prominently dis-
played as stated in our article
yesterday but we learn since
that the men '"deposited their
sidearms with the toll keeper
of the bridge. Laredo Times.
In the code and sacred books
of the Passes no provision is
mademfor capital punishment
but a culprit is to be beaten
with thongs a number of brows
proportioned to his oflens and
if he succumbs no .one is to
blame.
