The way thousands are trying to help
others is proof. Among them is Mrs.

ing good health by taking Electric Bit-
ters, she now advises other suffers,
everywhere, to take them. “For years
I suffered with stomach and kidney

! Houston Brewer Attacks Brewers.
| Chicago, Oct. 21.—The brewers
received a shock at the closing
| banquet tonight when one of
their own number attacked brew-
ers in a manner little short of the
best efforts of the temperance
j and numerous religious societies
| have been directing against the
j exposition.
H. Hamilton, president of the
Houston Brewing' company of
Houston, Texas, spoke on a res-
olution offered:
“Resolved, That public drink-
ing places which are the haunts
of vice are dangerous and should
I be eliminated.”
“What is the use of adopting
resolutions like these when it is
well known that the most of the
improper places in large cities
are owned or controlled by brew-
eries?
“The owning of disreputable
places and the jirotection of them
by the brewing interests is what
gives us a black eye. The anti-
liquor interests take these facts
and make capital of them, as
they justly should.”
When the chest feels on fire and the
throat burns, you have indigestion and
you need Herbine to get rid of the dis-
agreeable feeling. It drives out badly
digested food, strengthens the stomach
and purifies the bowels. Price 50c.
Sold by all druggists.
Friends of Rev. .J. W. Cowan
will be pleased to know that the
West Texas Conference which
adjourned at San Marcos, Mon-
day, returned him as pastor here
for another year. Rev. J. D.
Scott is also the presiding elder
of this district for another year.
It is pleasant for the pastors and
the people to continue their as-
sociation together, but four years
is yet the limit for the pastors of
the Methodist church to serve
one charge without change.
John C. Earnest, Veterinary
Surgeon, treats all curable dis-
eases of domestic animals. Office
at Earnest’s stable. w-tf
Messages received here an-
nounce the marriage at Midland,
Texas, Sunday, October 22, of
Walter Acker Browning and Miss
Kate Weir. Walter, as he is fa-
miliarly known here, has been
employed for some time in a
bank at Pecos City, and the an-
nouncement of his marriage was
a surprise to his parents as well
as the associates of his youth.
However, we all wish him and
his bonny bride the best in life
and promise them a hearty wel-
come when they come to Lampa-
sas to spend the holidays.
Mr. and Mrs. Will Lockhart
have a new girl at their home on
Third street, the young lady com
ing Sunday morning.
Mr. and Mrs. Bab'e Smith, Mr.
and Mrs. Elza Smith and chi!-
dren, of Oakalla, were guests of
Mr. and Vrs. Matt Smith Mon-
day.
Judge and Mrs. W. B. Abney
are at home after spending a
week visiting relatives and
friends at Belton, Waco, Dublin
and Brown wood.
Hon. Tom Ball has withdrawn
as a candidate for the United
Slates senate, giving a number
of r easons for his action, chief of
which is that his enemies charge
him with duplicity in saying he
would not be a candidate for a
state office at the prohibition con-
vention in Waco last spring, and
then announcing for a national
office. This leaves the race be-
tween Randall, Sheppard, Wol-
terSj Smith and Alexander. Prob-
ably there will be other candi-
dates in the field, as the primary
election is not due until next July.
Lid On at Galveston.
Galveston, Tex., Oct. 22.—For
the first time in the memory of
man the saloons of Galveston
were closed on Sunday because
the saloon men “had to.” There
was one Sunday, during Sep-
tember, that the saloons of the
island city remained closed all
day, it is said, out of respect to
Controller Lane, who spent the
day here.
The announcement last week
that the forty-two licenses were
to be revoked for Sunday selling
and the announcement Saturday
that seven more saloons had
been put on the list for selling on
Sunday Oct. 15, convinced the
saloon men that the Controller
rheant business. Even the “reg-
ulars” were unable to get a
drink.
( People who claim to know say
the crowd in Lampasas Monday
was the largest ever seen here.
Every business house in town
had extra help for the occasion,
and then some were not able to
wait upon all the customers who
came. While it is true that the
traveling shows take some money
out of the country, it is also true
that they cause a local circula-
tion of money which would not
occur otherwise, and it is the
currency which circulates which
helps all of us. Money hidden
away is worthless in the busi-
ness world, and useless for the
time being to the owner.
John R. Walsh, defaulting
banker, who was paroled from
the Leavenworth, Kansas, U. S.
prison, a week since, died at his
home in Chicago, Monday from
heart failure. He was 74 years
of age, and had been confined in
prison about 21 months.
The attendance at the Dallas
fair Sunday is estimated at 128,-
000 people, and persons who have
returned from there report that
the city was not able either to
house or feed the people who
visited the place. J. N. Jepsen
states, that a cot in a room with a
dozen others was priced at $1.00
to $1.50 for each person. Texas
people have money to pay their
way, and will spend it when the
occasion offers-.
Miss Ethel Wells, of Copperas
Cove, was a guest of her aunt,
Mrs. Matt Smith, Monday. She
was accompanied by her broth-
ers, Carl and Ollie, and they re-
turned home Tuesday.
The first frost of the season ap-
peared Sunday morning and was
partially duplicated Monday. It
was not cold enough to injure
anything but the most tender
vegetation.
