Just few days ago in a con-
versationwith the proprietor of
The Heral Mr. Jesse 0. Wheeler
we elicited the fact and state it with
pleasure that hisim has always
been "to give his readers a clean and
neatly printed sheet" and that he
believes that a good typographical
made-up newspaper is always ap-
preciated by its readers. He does
not lay so much stress upon artistic
work in advertisements headings
and general make-up but he insists
that every line should be free from
smear blur or dimness and es-
pecially now since the paper has a
new dress.
"Why print a smeary paper"
said he "it costs no more to issue
a readable publication?"
The subscribers of The Herald
can avc are sure from now on
rely upon a clean neat spicy daily
which will be full of good things
"from grave to gay and from lively
to leaven." v.V.
MEXICO CITY'S
MEAT MARKET.
The concessionaries for the City
of Mexico daily comsumption are
proceeding with their project. The
idea is to build an immense struct-
ure with capacity to hold several
thousand head of beef cattle hogs
sheep and goats after the style of
the Kansas City and Chicago de-
pots. In this structure the animals
are to be kept until slaughtered
with all the precautions dictated by
the sanitary board of the city.
There will be two inspectors one
appointed by the fedoral govern-
ment and the other by the munici-
pal authority. The plans have been
approved officially by the respee
tive authority and preparations are
nearly completed for beginning con
struction. There will be a telegraph
and telephone service perfect drain

sary to put the Mexico cattle mark-
et on a par with .those of Chicago

HOW HE WON FAME.
"The Boston Journal tells a story
of an actor who was accustomed to
spend his summers in Wilton Me.
Thero ho noted when as the custom
was a farmer "killed a critter" the
liver sweetbreads kidneys etc.
were thrown away. He offered to
purchase these delicacies but
though he got the goods the "sturdy
farmer scorned his proffered gold."
Not long after he observed as he
walked through the village that he
was the cynosure of all eyes and
was followed by a wondering if not
admiring crowd chiefly of the
young. "Aha" throught he "I
cannot escape my fame; my glory
as an actor has followed me even
to this obscure hamlet." And he
was mightily puffed up till he over-
heard one yokel shout to another:
"Bill there goes the feller that eats
innerds!"
THE FIFTEENTH DISTRICT.
It Is Probable the Campaign Will
Be a Warm One.
Corpus Christi Texas August G.
The fight in this the Fifteenth"
congressional district this year is
going to be a hotly contested one
and it is going to take considerable
campaigning and liard work on the
part of the democrats to cany the
district for Garner although it is
believed they eventually will.
There is considerable wind and
boodle with the republicans but
their chances of success for Scott is
not so very strong in some respects.
If Garner and Scott make an even
race north of the Nueces river it is
almost certain that the Rio Grande
counties where Judge James B.
Wells holds the reins in his hands
will pile up a big majority for
Garner. The main battle ground
however will be in this (Nueces)
count7 Scott's home and the in-
dications are the republican intend
to make a harcare. The
democrats likewise will get on their
righting clothes after Garner's nom-
ination on 'the 27tinstant and
then the real batFwill commence.
Already some 01 the republican Na-
tional committee's corruption fund
is said to be in circulation. The
democrats on the other hand are
quietly "sawing wood" and watch-
ing the maneuvers of Scott hench-
men and when the ballots are
counted in November the result of
their labors will be forcibly dis-
agreeable to the republicans and it
will be the same old tale "We
Would have won if the Rio Grande
hW not gone democratic."

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by loc il applications as thqy cannot
reach the diseased porti n of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness;
and that in by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed ' con-
dition of the mucous lining of the. Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube i in-
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect k earing and .when it k en-
tirely closed. Deafness- is the result and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its ndrmal
condition hearing will be destroyed
forever. Nine cases utof ten are caused
by Catarrh which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the inucuos sur-
faces. We will give One Hunlred Dollars
for any case or Deafness caused by
catarrh that cannot he cured by Hall's
