wnai is it?
A man who has been running a race
with strain and electricity for years
finds himself suddenly stopped. It
seems as if a cold hand clutched his
heart. His brain whirls ; he cau hardly
see. " What is it ?” he asks himself as
•
the attack passes.
If his question
meets a right an-
swer he'll Te told
that his seizure is
a warning to pay
more attention to
his stomachwhich
is already deranged |
by irregular meals
ami rich foods.

ARRASTRES IN GUERRERA.
Prof. Win. Niven Describes This Simple
Process of Treating Ones.
Prof. Wm. Niven writes to Modern
Mexico from Guerrero del Oro as fol-
lows: If a region equal in mineral
wealth at Klondike or Cripple Creek
should be discovered in Mexico it might
citUM* some little excitement and discus-
sion among the street corner and hotel
lobby mining pro-qiector* in the city but
owing to the liberality of the Mexican
mining law a rush to the spot would la-
unlikely to follow. It is well known
however that a “quiet boom'’ in mining
all over the Republic has been increasing
in force for some time past nud in no
section is there more evidence of this
than the States of Michoacan. Oaxaca
and Guerrero particularly the latter
where thousands of miles of virgin moun-
tains await the coining of the prospect
ora. A few hundred of them have al-
ready made dying trips to the present
terminus of El Gran Pacifico at the Bal-
sas River sia-nding from a few days to
a few weeks in the country beyond— at
some of the most well known localities
ami. not finding "hunks" of gold on the
trails have usually denounced the whole
country as a delusion and a snare. <>th
ers mon* conservative have declared that
gold silver and ‘copper actually exist
but the veins have no depth nor contin-
uity: t hat the mineral occurs in pocket*:
that although gold nuggets as big a«
walnuts have been found occasionally
the Aztecs probably picked up all the
gold long before the conquest. Some
have taken n more hopeful view and be
lieve that these prehistoric people bad
neither the energy nor the mining knowl-
edege ascribed to them. and that they
dill leave .some of the rich spots un-
touched. These are the present pioneer.
of Guerrero and many of them have
thousands of ton* of ore that will bear
shipment to the smelting center ns soon
ns the Cuernavaca railroad gets neai
enough to their properties.
Those who are fortunate to have free
milling ore treat it by the old Spanish
method in arrastres and save the tail-
ings for treatment by modern machinery
in the future. These arrastres cost only
a trifle where tirnlier is abundant as in
Tent epee. Guerrero del Oro and Teotitlar.
del Oro. in which regions the total cost
docs not exceed $25 for a ten-foot ar-
rastre. Their const ruction is simple.
Near a stream of water a circular hol<
about three feet deep and say twelve
feet in dinmeter is dug. A layer of clay
is placed on the bottom in which is
evenly imbedded flat stones —inters! ice-
being carefully filled up with clay.
Around this hole timber or. more pre-
ferably stone is built clay being filled
into the cracks and scams. Four wood
posts are sunk into the ground about
sixteen feet apart on which cross pieces
rest. In the middle an upright wooden
shaft is placed with two iron pins in
the center top and bottom. A crons
piece inis.ses through the shaft about
three feet from the floor on which are
hung two or more stones as flat on the
bottom ns possible weighing about 690
to SOO pounds each. These are the
metapiles or grinders. Another cross
piece passes through the shaft a few
feet higher on which the animals—horses
and mules —are hitched. The ore i*
crushed about the size of a bean and
placed in the arrastre —100 pounds or
so at a time. 100 to 1000 pounds being
sufficient for a ten-foot arrastre. When
it has lieen ground almost to a pulp
quicksilver is added in quantity accord-
ing to the richness of the ore. On*
ounce gold to the ton will require about
half a pound—but the clean up will en-
able one to judge how much is neves
sary—the quicksilver showing w het her it
is sufficiently charged or not. When the
orc is ground fine enough to pulp the
water is turned on ami mixed for an
hour or two when it is turned off and
gradually emptied running through a
ten to twelve foot sluice box. into a
three or four foot square box. The
lami or pulp is then placed in a rockei
and the quicksilver is squeezed through
a buckskin and what remains is after
want retorted and smelted into bars.
If the ore is free. 50 or tWt per cent of
gold will lie saved.
There will be more than a tempest
in a teacup before the movement in
St. Ixiuis to demolish the old exposi
tion hall on Twelfth street is a sue
cess. There is a strong opposition on
the part of the stockholders to de-
stroy one attraction to secure another.
The movement is in favor of that site
for the library. The exposition has
been a crown of glory on the head of
St. Louis for a score of years. St.
Louis is the only city that has main-
atlned a permanent exposition for
weeks of every year and It has been
the means .of drawing millions of trade
to the merchants of the city every
year. Then Its buildings are not a
discredit while its music hall is the
largest in the city. As the matter
is agitated the opposition grows more
pronounced and the forces enlisted
are quite certain to defeat the move-
ment to tear down.

THE PEOPLE ARE IN BONDAGE
To the Daily Light:
The jicople of San Antonio tmluy. arc
like unto the “children of Israel in an
eient tiiucs.” they are in “Bou-
d«gv" only the children of hrael had n
Mose* to load them out of "Bondage"
whereas We pi'Ople of San Antonio thus
fur. are short n “Moses."
The |ieoplc want a leader. 'I Hey arc
ripe for action they realize that they
are living "buncoed;” that their good
money is being paid out without the
warrant of law. that those sworn tn
guard their interest.* are proving false
to their trust. They see thousand* of
dollars paid to a company that today is
a violator of every clause of a contract
made mouth* ago. They see their May-
or signing drafts upon a fund that was
voted to pay for completed work when
not u yard of said work ha* ls*en com-
pleted.
From one to another the question
goes what shall we doT What can
we do? Is th»re no recourse? Have
we got to permit this thing to go ou and
on and see our money wasted?
What are the courts for: why are
grand juries empaneled if such abuse*
can go unchallenged?
Good lawyers say that under the con-
tract the Parker-Washington company
are not entitled to draw a single dollar
from the fund voted for street improve-
nicnta. and yet they have been allowed
$2O 909 or more and have actually re
ceived $h1900. for what? Have they
imved any street according to contract?
Have they paved a single block in this
city in accordant with their contract?
It is needless to answer these questions.
Every body knows the condition of such
streets ns hnve been partially torn tin
by thi* company and yet out mayor ac-
cepts these estimates signs drafts for
$1'1.900 for unfinished and uncompleted
work.
Accnniing to (his way of doing hii*i-
ne** this company can go on tearing up
street* and laying a block here .and
there with concrete until they exhaust
the fund created to pave sis miles of
street s.
Twenty thousand dollar* gone and not
a square vard of completed work. Do
the taxpayer* ot San Antonio propose to
let this thing go on? Whither are we
drifting when binding contracts can be
willfully violated when the .Mayor and
Council not onlj' refuse to protect the in-
terest* of the city and take charge of a
publie work a* provided in the contract
hut actually pay for work before it i*
comnleted and while a resolution is
pending to oust the contractors for
non-compliance with the term* of their
contract?
It i* simply shameful and disgrace-
ful. We hope the visiting mayor's will
get out of town before they learn how
municipal business is transacted in the
“Ahmo Citv." lx*t us hope that the
Grand parade today. —with the garbage
men in “kahki uniforms and blue painted
cart*." the white aproned push cart
mail the carriers of picks and wielders
of shovela and the Sanitary department
and the legal department the gorgeous
police and the tire department
the mayor and council all arrayed in
the “pomp anil circumstance of glorious
war." will so dazzle the eyes of our vi‘ i-
tor*. that they will never give a thought
to (he “Parkoi-Wnshington company" or
a*k any foolish questions about “Muni-
cipal management of corporation con-
tract*" or the extending of “Municipal
Franchises" or how to evade the “Anti
Trust Liw" and tie up your city for half
a centuiy. These inquiries would prove
embarrassing and might jar our Chris-
tian mavor. I*- A. W.

CUBAN JEACKERS' VISIT
STARTS HEALTH REVIVAL.
Paine's Celery Compound Doing Wen-
tlerful Work Among Sick.
The visit of hundreds of bright Cu-
ban teachers to the United States last
summeh has caused a tremendous
health revival in avana and Santiago.
The American idea. " A sound mind
in a sound body." is one of the first
lessons Cuba and Porto Rico are learn-
ing.
But they are learning fast.
Whatever distrust Cubans may have
of American politicians they have con-
fidence in America’s greatest remedy
Paine's celery compound.
It has opened the eyes of the people
of Havana and Santiago to the possi-
bilities of good health in a way their
crude remedies hail never let them
imagine.
Paine’3 celery compound is doing a
tremendous missionary work this
spring anionk the sick not only
throughout the United States but
wherever the American influence is
felt.
The best families in Santiago are
tkin g Paine's celery compound. The
common people are looking after their
health as never before. American phy-
sicians in Havana are ordering the
great spring remedy. It's health-giving
effect on friends nnd relatives who
first tried Paine's celery compound in
the United States has encouraged thou-
sands of despondent hopeless sufferers
A HARD WORKER
Mrs. Hetty Green'* daily life is more
like that of a manual laborer than of a I
merchant prince. She rises curly in her :
cheap little flat in Hoboken N. J. spend*
a few minutes upon a light breakfast. '
and hurries to the ferry. She is almost |
the first person to arrive at her office in ;
the Chemical bank on Broadway. Here •
she labors until after dark.
Her rise in the financial world was ■
very swift and yet it did not appear to :
attract public notice for several years.
Before the public was aware of the fact i
she had become a banker railway di
rector stock operator real estate in- ‘
vestor and eapitulist. Her success led 1
many people to believe first that she I
was but a figurehead for a shrewd uu ;
known speculator. Not until she had de ;
feated many groups of hostile financier* j
nnd predatory promoter* did the world
realize that she was a new and potent |
factor in the banking community. She ;
is the largest individual stockholder of ।
the I.oiusville 4 Nashville railroad.
Her greatest achievement so far as the
publie is concerned took place in ISO 9
when she lent over a million dollars in
cash in n single operation. The money |
market was tight the need of the bor-
rower great and only one Wall street
magnate Russell Sage was suposed to
be in n position capable of furnishing
the ready money. Imagine therefore the
general surprise when the poorly-dressed
Mr*. Green canie forward and took np
the loan with the quickness of an auc-
tioneer seizing a half heard bid.
THE HAPPY MEDIUM
A clergyman relates that a worthy
Irishman with an impediment in hie
speech brought him a child to lie bap-
tized. While making a record of it he
was in some doubt as to the correct
spelling of the family name given to
him and asked the man how he wrote it.
“Indeed and I don’t write at all" wa-j
the reply.
"I just want to know." said Father)
Boyle "whether the name is ‘McGrath’
or • Magrath'—whether the second part
of it is spelled with a big ‘G’ or a lit-
tle ’g'."
After scratching hi* head hopelessly
the puzzled parent saw hi.* way out of
the difficulty. “Well father fust spell
it wid a middlin sized ‘g’." Exchange.
Marion Kooke manager for T. M.
Thompson a large Importer of fine mil-
linery at 1658 Milwaukee avenue. Chi-
cago. says: "During the late severe
weather I caught a dreadful cold which
kept me awake at night and made tne ।
unfit to attend my work during the!
day. One of my milliners was taking '
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy for a
severe cold at that time which seem
od to relieve her so quickly that I
bought some for myself. It acted like
magic and I began to improve at once i
I am now entirely well and feel very I
pleased to acknowledge its merits." t

these cases has been the direct cause
of the health-revival that is now arous-
ing such tremendous enthusiasm.
That Santiago seconds Havana's en-
dorsement ct Paine's celery compound
is shown by the following letter from
Mrs. Belen Guerra:
Santiago. Cuba. Jan. 1901.
Wells. Richardson & Co.:

Angers and hands. My limbs wore be-
numbed and I could hardly stand. I

girt advised me to use Paine's celery
compound. 1 began at once to get
better and today 1 am perfectly well.
Naturally I have great faith in Paine's
celery compound. Verv truly vours.
MRS. BELEN GUERRA.
Every one in the springtime needs

nerves. Carry home today—not by and
by—a bottle of Paine's celery com-
pound. Cure nervousness neuralgia
and rheumatism this spring. You can

Such evidences of an unhealthy con-
diten as those constant headaches

compound.
FARMER FLEECED.
Robbed of $l9 at San Marron en Route
to San Antonio
A farmer of San Marcos who arrived
in tin- city over the I. 4 G. N. thi*
morning about I o'clock to attend the
Batttie of Flowers was robbed last
night. The train was crowded and a«
he wa* boarding it at San Miircen a man
squeezed in behind him on the car steps
aud in the crush got in hi* work. The
farmer lost $l9. all he had with him.
Three well dressed men who <-aim- on to
>an Antinio arc believed to know some-
thing about it. The farmer came to San
Antonio and is stopping with two
brothels here. The robbery occurred
about 11:45 o'clock la-t night.
EX-MARSHAL DRUSE ACQUITTED.
: The trial of ex-Marshal Druse for
forgery ended in almost instant acquit-
I al. He was charged with forgery at
i the time he was assistant to County
'Treasurer Umschied. It was alleged
1 that he paid warrants for face value
and then altered and increased the
amount of the warrant. Some one
did this bnt wro there was no proef;
there was really no testimony against
I the accused who has a good record.
There were a number of similar charg-
es that were not prosecuted by the Dis-
trict Attorney. Mr. Druse's friends
claim that the whole was a political
dodge to knock him out of the office of
Marshal of the city in order that it
could be given to another as had been
arranged. It would not be surprising
if the charge were true for the average
San Antonio politician will stoop to
any depth of folly vice or criminality
to accomplish his own dirty ends.—
