Fire at 2 o'clock this morning totally
destroyed a small frame cottage at 106
Chicago . Boulevard, near the Faiil
Grounds, occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Wil-
liam fc'itterle and Mrs. Annie Sltterle.
The members of the family were awak-
ened by the flames and smoke and had
just time to escape In their night clothes.
The htnine and contents, with exception
of one piece of furniture, were consumed.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
The building is valued at about $110f)
and the contents at $500.
The distance necessary for the hose
wagons to go. the engine house several
blocks this sld*> of the burning building
not being yet equipped, enabled the fire
to gain such headway that when the
firemen arrived they could do nothing
except prevent the flamea spreading to
adjoining cottages.

lover $100.
This and all of other questions have
been agreed upon by the various railway
general bagg.ige agents and their res pet-

by the American association, after which
they will be referred to the Interstate

It Is a positive fact that n dose of Pape's
Cold Compound taken every two hours
until three consecutive doses are taken
will cure Grippe or break up the most
severe cold, either in the head, chest, back,
stomach or limbs.
You distinctly feel the cold breaking
nnd all the disagreeable grippe symptoms
leaving aftei the very first dose. It
promptly ends the most miserable neural-
gia pain*, headache, dullness, hend and
Mi.se stuffed up, feverUhness, sneezing,
si-re throat, running of the nose mueoin
catarrhal discharges, soreness, stiffness
nnd rheumatic twinges.
Pape's Cold Compound Is the result ol
three years' research at a cost of more
than fifty thousand dollars and contains
ii(i quinbie, which we have conclusively
demonstrated Is not effective In the treat-
ment of coldl or grippe.
Take this harmless Compound as di-

Sap Has a Wreck at West Point.

WEST POINT. Tex . Feb. 15.— San An-
tonio & Aransas Pass train No. 00, north
out of Yoakum to Waco, went Into the
ditch hist midnight, overturning four flat
cars and two boxes nnd tearing up the
^track for several hundred yards. The
southbound passenger train was delayed
three hours at West Point until the track
could he cleared. The cause of the wreck
was the turning of rails 011 a curve under
two flat cars loaded with heavy bridge
steel. A second wrtf k was narrowly
averted when the rear truck on an oil car
turned cross-ways ihe axle In passing over
the new track. There was no damage
scarcely in the hist accident, as the train
was running slow.

McFarlane Trial Begins at Galveston.
GALVESTON, Tex.. Feb. 15. The trial
of Earl McFarlane for the murder of
Deputy of Police William Murphy of
Houston lagt April, brought here on a
| change of venue from Harris County, waa
i commenced In the Criminal District Court
; this morning before Judge C. W. Robin-
itlzens waa
ir
the time. It was exceptional in another I —
sense in that it was probably the first j
banquet In this Slate that was charac- I
terized by a wrestling match, and there I
were rood wrest lei s at that.
In addition to this there was a lot of j
good vaudeville. Sorn" good stories, some
original music played 011 a broomstick ;
and sonic good singing put all those •
around the banquet board In a happy
frame of mind.
Of the banquet itself there Is not a
great deal to be said. Tt Is unnecessary.
Ii was up to the St. Anthony standard
and thai means the best. It wa- served
in a manner that elicited nothing but
favorable comment from t he hankers and
those visitors from New York. Chicago
and St. Louis ami they said there was
nothing better east of the Mississippi
River.
All told there were about 2M around
the banquet board. None of the better
halves were seated at the table. Some
of them saw the wic tling match from a
distance ami caught the echoes of the
applause of the other vaudeville features
on the program. The wrestling match
was a t aich-as-catdi-can bout, John
l.erg weighing in at 17(1 pounds and Karl
Anderson of the Twenty-second Infantry
going in at Berg got both falls,
the first in twelve minutes and the sec-
ond in seven minutes. Berg had agreed
to throw his opponent twice within thirty
minutes.
But there was other vaudeville. Miss
Fay Nicker-on told some stories, and
she told them well. And they wevre new
stories in dialect. Therefore she was
accorded an ovation, all of which she
was entitled to.
Miss Anis Miller, down on tho program
as a mezzo-soprano, sang a song and it
vent so well she had to sing another.
Fred Elliot, who Is at the Royal this
week, came on then with his rural im-
personations and gave some selections
on a broomhandle. He more than made
good.
