IF YOU ARE OFFERED A BOLT OF

Housewives, lookout for agents who
tome io your house representing them
selves as selling linen at a sacrifice.
Vhe police say that scores of women
have complained to them saying that
after they had washed the goods they
found it tn be hut cheap cotton highly
starched and ironed.
According to the police, it seems that
three or four jiersons have recently ar
rived in the city with a large supply of
the eotton got«Js and are making a
honee to house canvas® of the city. So
splendidly ha» the stuff been put up
that it lias not yet failed to fool the
public, say the police, judging from the
coinplaints.that continue to pour into
headquarters. (
It is sold by the bolt, it is said, and
$5 a bolt is asked. The price is seem

discovered the cloth is nothing more
than a bolt of the cheapest cotton "doc

That a systematic canvass of the city
is being made, the police say is certain,

BEFORE COUNCIL
Those Behind the Big Project
Do Not Want the City
to Waste Time.
MAY REPORT PROGRESS
Lifting the Veil of Secrecy, the
Council May Make Public
Detailed Reports.
Progress may be reported at the
meeting of the city couucil Monday af
ternoon, relative to the proposed wid
ening of Commarce street between
Main plaza and South Alamo street.
During the past week the owners’ com
mittee has been busy preparing deeds
and releases from tenants on the south
side and report that the $85,000 sub
scription fund from the north side own
ers, as requested by the mayor as a
guarantee fund to assist in the work,
will be available at any moment. The
committee expects to complete matters
and hafe everything in tangible shape
in the near future and this incident
may be brought up at the meeting or
the city fathers tomorrow afternoon, in
order that the ordinances calling for the
special bond election may be prepared
accordingly. This, it is said, may be
done in order that as little time as pos
sible will be lost in getting work ac
tively under headway.
The annual reports of the various
heads of the different departments of
the city government may be introduc
ed, although this has not been custo
mary with the administration. Of iate
for some reason, matters have neen
made public at thecouneil meetings that
for years have remained a secret in the
circle of a few executive officials. For
this reason, like the detailed statement
relative to the new financial budget,
the annual reports may be made pub
lic. It was intimated that such would
be the case.
Picture Show Ordinance.
Another matter that may com# up
before the meeting is the ordinance re
lating to the construction and operation
of moving picture shows. An ordinance
of this kind has occupied the attention
of the council for the hist six or eight
months, yet the measure has never
gone into effect. The original ordi
nance after pending before the coun
cil on its second reading for half a year
was revoked at the session held last
Monday, the reason given by its aw
thors being that the measure was so
faulty it was not deemed advisable to
pass it. For that reason, after per
mission was granted the committee to
withdraw it, they presented an amend
ed ordinance. This second ordinance
was placed on its first reading at. the
last meeting and laid over. With the
exception of a few technical terms the
measure is identical with the original
measure.
The assessment committee, Aiderman
Richter chairman, will report on a very
large batch of petitions for correction
of assessments, refund or reduction of
taxes. The chairman at the last meet
ing reported that the committee had
been unable to consider the petitions
an time for a report, but that the me
morials would be taken up during the
week and a report prepared. The com
mittee has been unable to get together
during the week, but will meet Monday
morning in the office of the city asses
sor. at which time the petitions in naad
will be compared with the records end
reports prepared accordingly.
A report may be bad from the city
attorney concerning the application of
the American District Telegraph com
pany, for a franchise to operate in San
Antonio. The petition of this company
presented to the council a couple of
wtieks ago was referred to the city at
torney at the last session for a report
in order that the committee might
make a recommendation to the coun
cil.
LOSS ENORMOUS.
Statistician Figures Loss of 854 Millions
to Nation by Disease.
United Frees.
Chicago, 111., June 11.—" The loss to
the nation annually from occupational
diseases is $854,250,000, ’ was the as
sertion tonight of Frederick L. Hoffman,
statistician for the Prudential Life In
surance company, a delegate to the ad
ministrative council of the American
Association for Labor Legislation.
The national conference on industrial
disease is made the basis for represen
tation to congress for some remedial
legislation. John Mitchell of the New
York commission suggested that labor
unions urge the law makers in every
state to "raise the price of human life”
lost in industrial occupation to $20,000.
It is now $lO,OOO in most states and

NOTHING NHL
GT DONE ABOUT
STRIKING MEN
—TBOWTWELL FAY.
General Superintendent and
Southern Pacific Head Says
He Will Not Listen.
NOT ENOUGH IMPORTANCE
Crops In Excellent Condition
Wherever Visited on Tour
of Inspection.
Thornwell Fay, general superintend
ent of the Texas "Central lines; I. A.
Cottingham, general engineer, and G.
Radetzski. superintendent of the Hous
ton Texas lines, which are a part of the
Southern Pacific system, passed through
Ban' Antonio on an inspection tour of
the East Texas lines last night, remain
ing here for a few hours.
When asked what would be done in
regard to the strike of the section fore
men, Mr. Fay said:
"Why. nothing will be done. It is
not of enough importance. It is only n
local disturbance and will not affect
any line in the least.
"The crop® in the parts of Texas vis
ited by us are in excellent condition,”
continued Mr. Fay, "and there will be
a very good movement in a great many
lines, if I am not mistaken. There has
been no rain in east Texas for some
time, but the crops show no suffering in
the least.
"The lines in all parts of the state
we found in excellent condition. We in
spected a new dam at Marble Falls
which has just recently been built
across the Colorado river.”
The party spent Friday night in
Llano and came in last evening from
Justin, where the greater part of Sat
urday was spent. They left for Hous
ton at 10:45 o’clock last night after
about a week's inspection tour.

LADIES!
ATTENTION 1
If vour mirror reflects a complexion
that 'is sallow, lifeless or muddy,—a
skin that is rough, coarse pored, or
marred by wrinkles, fine lines or blem
ishes. ...
Cleanse the face and neck thorough
ly with the E. BURNHAM CUCUMBER
& ELDERFLOWER CREAM. Use a
soft cloth, carefully removing any ex
cess cream; then apply a little of the
E. BURNHAM KALOS OZONE MAS
SAGE CREME, massaging with the
balls of the fingers, until the cream dU
appears. Then apply just a speck of
the E. BURNHAM ROUGE, spreading
it evenly over the ebceks. Then a dash
of E. BURNHAM powder (if the skin
is rough, omit the powder). Be care
ful to give the neck the same treat
ment that you do the face. Pass both
hands lightly over the entire face and
neck, so as to remove any stray parti
cle of powder remaining. The results
will bo AMAZING. This treatment will
protect the complexion from the ill et
focts of exposure to the sun and the
winds.

ence of upwards of a thousand tonight.
Many ladies were in the audience. The

warmed to his subject of “local self
government ” his utterance became
clearer.
Colquitt declared that he has no fear
of submission winning if it is placed on
the ticket, but said that if its support
ers manage to secure a majority tho
conditions at two years ago wilt prevail.
He declared that local instructions are
above any platform, and said that the
constitution provided tho only possible
wav to effect a change, that by a two
thirds vote of the legislature.
