Burdette was found in a critical condition at her home on ESectisw as aa laduui Exterminator, bat Too Merciless to Try. "A good many years ago the Co manche Indians nsed to harry and an noy the people of Texas by predatory incursions, pretty much, I fancy, as the Scottish Highlanders did their brethren who dwelt in loss mountainous regions, " said Colonel Alt Mason of the Lone Star State. "Tbo Conianches, too, had exactly the same purpose in view that animated the adherents of Rob Roy the lifting of cattle and it would be .hard to say which made the greatest success of the business, tho sturdy free booters of Scotia or the copper hued denizens of the American plains. The Texans of course resented to the ut most this conduct of the redskins, and many a brave paid the death penalty for trying to get away with horses or cows that did not belong to him. "Many a poor settler, too, in trying to save his little homestead, fell a victim to the barbarous foe. Some unusually cruel raids in which a number of white women and little children were butch ered, about the year 1S59, in William son county, not far from the state capi tal, caused tho resentment of the people to riie to a boiling pitch, and vengeance was sworn against the whole tribe of marauding red demons. The affair was so ruthless in its atrocity that it came very near being the cause of a wholo salo slaughter of the Indians which could have scarcely been justified. The proposition camo from one of the noted frontiersmen and Indian fighters of that day, who has long since crossed over the river. General Hender son. The old man advanced it coolly and could with, difficulty be persuaded to abandon it It was to invite, under the guise of pretended friendship and reconciliation, all tho Comanches that could be assembled in a great scope of surrounding country to a big barbecue. where there was to be eating and drink ing galore and a general smoking of the pNpo of peace. It was to be a grand feast, esMcially in the roast beef part of the menu, said beef to be artistically dressed with poison enough to kill every son of a gun of an Indian that partook of it Well, they wouldn't let the old general carry out his scheme, and he got very hot over it and to tho day of his death cursed the sentimental fools that interfered with his plans for reduc ing the Conuwche census."

She is conscious, but still very low. She had been ailing for some time, and the doctor had been attending her, and calling yes terday found her lying on the parlor floor in an unconscious condition, with a stove poker in her hand, indi cating that she had been working about the stove when seized with the attack. She has lived alone since her husband's death. THE OLD GENERAL'S SCHEME. Coal Tar In Masonry. The announcement is made in The National Builder that what was at first considered a doubtful experiment viz, the use of coal tar as a means of render ing masonry impervious to water, espe cially in positions exposed to direct con tact with the latter has proved a prac tically valuable resort Used as a coat ing for masonry built up of very porous stone, tar renders it quite impervious even at a depth of some 50 feet of wa ter, and, according to the experience of those who have had much to do with it, the article should be utilized in all public buildings, particularly those de signed for the preservation of works of art, the dissolving action of water, even upon mortar of superior quality, being well known; also the unfavorable effect of the exudation of water charged with lime salts from the mortar. Two meth ods of using the tor are named viz, in a boiling state in one or several layers, this being suitable for surfaces exposed to the air, or it may be made to flame up before using, this being appropriato to surfaces which have to be covered up. Kept the Crown. Orleans House, Twickenham, where Louis Philippe lived when duke of Or leans, is in the property market In later days, staying as an exiled king at the Star and Uurter, Richmond, ho walked one day to Twickenham for the purpose, as he said, of seeing some of the old tradesmen who had served him when he resided there. The first person to recognize him was an old man, who doffed his hat and hoped his royal high ness was well. The recognition, how ever, was not mutual. "Perhaps," said the old man, "your royal highness will remember me when I Ml you that I keep the Crown" an alehouse close to tho entrance of Orleans House. "Do you?" said Louis Philippe. "Let me congratulate you. You are able to do what I am not" London News. A Plagiaristfe Boy. One of the boys of a Capitol hill fam ily had been instructed by his teacher to write au essay. A rather abstruse subject was given him, and he had been referred to the dictionary. His elder brother, who was also giving sugges tions, hud promised if the composition was good he would write it on the type writer. The little fellow went to thai dictionary and found the word he was loaning lor ana under it a quotation that just suited tho subject He consid ered life a little too short, though, to copy the quotation, so he hunted up his mother's shears and in a way that argues a great deal in favor of his future jour nalistic ability clipped through the big, handsome dictionary and clipped wher ever a word or phrase suited his fancy. His brother, who rewrote the compo sition, diaoowred the' plagiarism and informed the father, and the boy now takes his meals from the shelf.

SEVERE EXPOSURE Often result in colds, fevers, rheumatism, neuralgia and kindred derangements, We do not 11 catch cold " if we are in good condi tion. If the liver is active, and the system in coo sequence doing its duty, we live in full health and enjoy life " rain or shine." To break up a cold there's nothing so valuable as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They keep the whole system regulated in a perfectly natural way. If we do not (eel happy, if worry and grumble, if we are morbid, if th days seem dreary and long, if the weather is bad, if things go awry, it is the liver which is at fault It is generally "torpid." A common sense way is to take Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. We generally eat too much, take insufficient exercise, by means of which our tissue-changes become indolent and in complete. Be comfortable you are com fortable when well. You'll be well when you have taken " Pleasant Pullets." No Constipation follows their use. Put up sealed in glass always fresh and reliable.
