Making Preliminary Survey.
Some time ago the city council of
W axahachie granted to A. T. Ryers
of Fort Worth a franchise for build
ing, maintaining· and operating- a
trolley line inside the corporate lim
its, said line to be a part of an inter
urhan road to he constructed be
tween this place and Ennis. The
•franchise provided that work should
begin on the line within four months
from the date <»f its acceptance by
Mr. Byers, in behalf of eastern cap
italists whom he represents and who
will build the road. Nothing more
bad been heard of the matter until
the other day when the reporter was
informed that County Surveyor
Slartin had been engaged to make
the preliminary survey between
Waxahachie and Ennis. Mr. Mar
tin has been busy this week making
stakes for the right of way and we
understand that his assistant, Cyral
Erwin, began running the prelimi
nary survey this morning, commen
cing in East End.
The civil engineers of the Interna
tional are also at work in East End
today establishing a new line out of
the city toward Dallas. The latest
line passes through Ike Bullard's
yard and it is said that the new
route to Dallas will pass near Kock
ett.
Death of Mrs. Christopher.
Mrs. Annie Christopher, the wid
owed daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.
J. Williams, died last night at the
home of her parents in East End.
The funeral services took place this
afternoon at 3:30 o'clock from the
residence on Lake Park avenue, in
terment in the City Cemetery. Mrs.
Christopher was a most excellent
lady. She leaves only one child, a
«daughter nine years old.

TBE PHILIPPINE BILL
Another Day of Criticism and De
fense in the Senate.
MR. ATCOMAS SPEAKS
He Defend* the Administration and
Charge· to Democrat* the Re«p<>n·
nihility of Conditions—Till»
man Defends His Party.
Washington, May 7.—When the sen
ate convened Wednesday, Mr. Cuiioni
chairman of the foreign reiatlons com
mittee reported favorably a bill mak
ing appropriations for the diplomatic
and coneular service of the United
States in the Republic of Cuba. The
salary of the minister is fixed at $12,
000.
Mr. Spooner of Wisconsin offered an
additional appropriation amendment
not exceeding $5000 a year for renta
of proyer legation residence in lia
vana. It was agreed to. A.i an amend
ed the bill was passed.
Mr. Hawley, the chairman of the
LOUTS Β. Mt'OOMAJlh
! committee on military affairs, reported
the army appropriation hll.
Mr. Culberson of Texas inquired
whether the secretary of war had re
sponded to his resolution of the first
instant concerning the orders of fîen
erals Bell and Smith. When informed
that no response had been received
he offered a resolution direc ting the
secretary of war to send the senate
copies of all orders, instructions, let.
ters and cablegrams relating to con
centration in the Philippines and alsc
copies of all orders, instructions, let
ters and cablegrams relating to the or
der of Brig. Gen. Jacob H. Smith, to
MaJ. Waller.
Mr. Ix)dge said that as a resolution
of which the above was an amplifloa
tion had been asked only five days
ago he would ask that the resolution
go over. It was so ordered.
Consideration of the Philippines hill
then was resumed and Mr. McComas
of Maryland: addressed the senate in
supiiort of the measure.
After declaring that the war with
Spain had been forced upon the Unit
ed States by the Democrats and that
the Philippines had come to this coun
try through that war. Mr. McComat
asaerted that in the debates on the
Philippine question the Democrats ig
nored ail biotory and ignored the
treaty which they helped to ratify. He
said they proposed to undo the glori
ous work of the past four years; to
denounce the treaty, to disgrace the
army and navy, to throw away the
sovereignty over the islands, to defy
the verdict of the jieople; to reverse
the supreme court and to scuttle, amid
the flaunts and Jeers of all the nations
of the world.
The benefit provided in the pending
bill, he paid was being obstructed b>
the minority of the senate, the mem
here of which confined their speeches
to denunciations of the army. He said
that all humane men deplored the ad
ministration of the waterctire by
Americans, but he insisted it was not
patriotic to clutch at every charg*
made against our army. He made β
warm defense of (Jen. Funeton and
paid a high tribute to his courage and
patriotism. Mr. McComas pakl a high
tribute to President McKinley, Presi
dent Roosevelt and Secretary Root.
Discussing the alleged cruelties, said
to be practised by American troops in
the Philippines, Mr. McComas advert
ed to many such Instances during the
UK ΑΤΟU TILLMA*.
flrll war—instances furnished by both
the Union and Confederate forces. He
referred to Sherman's inarch to the
sea "lighted by the burning of bridges
and hamlets;" an dio the horrors oi
Andersoavllle and Libbey prisons. He
urged aa to those prisons that the Con
federate soldier* as a body were noi
to be Hbargnd with the àcti et a ®w
H» apoke, he Raid.' In #f»aee cnfit
•oldiers of both the nlfth an« Shf
•outh. The army la tt^ Pblïtopiifea
be contended. wan no mow J«tly ti
be charged with approving of teolatet
instances of cruelty than were th«
armies of the north and south durinf
the civil war. He paid a tribute t<
the humanity of the American troopt
in the Philippines and cited many in
atances of tenderness and mercy
Mr. McComas said the policy of the
minority was one of scuttle and that
they steal away from the inlands ant
leave them to anarchism and imperial
Ism.
Referring to ejections in the south
Mr. McComas ;->aid that the senatorf
from South Carolina and Mlssissipp
(Tillman and Money) cried out against
the small percentage of voters lu tb»
early elections in the Philippines Af
ter discussing the election methods ir
the states referred to he said:
"We behold senators from the twe
states where there is less popular lib
erty than in any others shouting loud
est for constitutional liberty on thli
side of the globe."
In conclusion he said: "The admin
lstration of President Roosevelt wll
not haul down our flax In the Philip
pine« This administration will folic*
the path wherein President McKlnle}
walked."
While Mr McComas was referrlnt
to some of the cruelties of war Inflict
ed on both side* during the civil war
mr. Tillman protested against the In
Jectmt'Dt into the debate of atateraenti
likely to stir up bitterness.
Mr M'Momas ha<l referred to In
' stances of cruelties committed »-y botf
sides in the civil war siraplv, he said

Philippines. In th« United States, hi
maintained, a serious problem con
fronted the govprnment th* neg-i
problem - and we might hotter try tc

"'Throughout tbe emith." said he
"there Is a horror hunn'.iut over ever)

"You are taunting us," said hp
"about our treatment of th* uegroe*

that we will not interfere with you»

We hope you will help US of the soutt

Mr Burton of Kansas replied to Mr
ι Tillman, criticising spverely his re
marks, and Mr. C'lapp of Mluneeola
put in afew words of protest.

EXHAUSTION OF NERVE FORCE

Paine's Cel*ry
Compound
| '
Banishes Nervous Prostration,
Hysteria and Sleeplessness
Any intelligent man or woman can
easily detect victims of nervous
troubles by taking a ten minute
walk on any of the crowded streets
I of our cities or towns. The observer
ί will note countenances full of fever
ish anxiety, harassed looks, un
steady bands, faltering steps,
j twitching muscles, nallld faces, anil
startled, anxious looks when un
usual noises are made. Such people
j are, without doubt, victims of nerv
ous prostration, hysteria, or insom
I nia. The whole system suffers—the
I brain, the spinal cord and the sym
pathetic system.
It is unnecessary to dilate minute
I ly on the causes of nervousness,
ι Business cares and disappointments,
j haste after riches and honors, social
and household worries, sexual and
alcoholic excesses, watching and
! anxiety, and loss of near and dear
1 ones, all contribute to th*» breaking
I down of the nervous organism of
j men and women.
In earnest words we st*t belor»*
[ this afflicted class the truth that
j Paine's Celery Compound affords a
: speedy and sure cure for all forms
of nervous diseases. The great
medicine is a perfect restorer of
nerve force and power; a sure builder
and strengthener of the weak and
debilitated system.
Paine's Celery Compound has en
abled thousands in every city and
town of our land to rem-w and in
vigorate their health and keep their
places in business and in society.
In all law centres where nervous
diseases ar*· common, the best
I physicians prescribe Paine's Celery
Compound with continued success.
Λ few bottles of nature's health
restorer used during the month of
May will completely banish all
nervous disorders, by giving new
nerve force, purer blood, better di
