once, but after a statement of the

to reconsider. They declined to re-

FACULTY DISMISSES
466 A. & M. CADETS.
• I •
Students Signed Petition Demanding Re-
instatement of 22 Others, and
Threatened to Strike.
Bryan, Texas, Feb. 1.—An order
striking the names of 466 students
from the rolls of the A. & M. College
was entered on the faculty minutes
of the institution tonight.
The 466 students are charged1
with insubordination as defined in1
the blue book—the college rule
book. Wednesday twenty-two stu-
dents were dismissed for hazing.
They strapped freshmen, it is
charged, because the freshies re-
fused to give a Christmas tree tp
the upper class men. Friday five
more students were dismissed. The
studenjt.s dismissed were sophomores
and juniors.
A petition demanding the rein-
statement of these was presented
to the faculty. This was signed by
466 students who admitted they
were guilty of hazing and who said
if their fellows were not reinstated
that they would attend no academic
duties.
The faculty tonight ordered the
dismissal of all who signed the pe-
tition.
President Milner issued the fol-
lowing statement tonight:
"On Jan. 28, 1913, twenty-two
cadets of the Agricultural and Me-
chanical College of Texas were dis-
missed for hazing. On Jan. 31 five
others were dismissed for the same
offense. Today, Feb. 1, members of
the junior, sophomore and fresh-
man classes, 466 in all, demanded
of the faculty that the cadets so
dismissed be reinstated and de-
clared that they would attend no
academic duties until the faculty
complied with their demand. Be-
lieving that the cadets making this
demand had acted hastily and in
some cases under coercion, the
CAN YOU DOUBT IT?
When the Proof Can Be So Easily In-
vestigated.
When so many grateful citizens
of Crockett testify to benefit derived
from Doan's Kidney Pills, can you
doubt the evidence? The proof is
not far away—it is almost at your
door. Read what a resident of
Crockett says about Doan's Kidney
Pills. Can you demand more con-
vincing testimony?
Mrs. N. S. Box, Bruner's Addition,
Crockett, Texas, says: "I had been
greatly annoyed by attacks of kid-
ney complaint. When I read about
Doan's Kidney Pills, I used them as
directed and they benefited me in
every way. I procured Doan's Kid-
ney Pills at Sweet's drug store."
The above statement must carry
conviction to the mind of every
reader. Don't simply ask for a kid-
ney remedy—ask distinctly for
Doan's Kidney Pills, the same that
Mrs. Box had—the remedy backed
by home testirr\pny. 50c all stores.

Methodist Minister Recommends Cham-

Rev. James A. Lewis, Milaca,
Minn., writes: "Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy has been a needed and
welcome guest in our home for a
number of years. I highly recom-
mend it to my fellows as being a
medicine worthy of trial in cases of
colds, coughs and croup." Giye
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy a
trial and we are confident you will

Are You Nervous?
What makes you nervous? It is the weakness of your
womanly constitution, which cannot stand the s.rain of the
hard work you do. As a result, you break down, and ruin
your entire nervous system. Don't keep this upl Take
Cardui, the woman's tonic. Cardui is made from purely
vegetable ingredients. It acts gently on the womanly organs,
and helps them to do their proper work. It relieves pain
and restores health, in a natural manner, by going to the
source of the trouble and building up the bodily strength.
Cardui Woman's Tonic
Mrs. Grace Fortner, of Man, W. Va., took Cardui.
This is what she says about it: "I was so weak and
nervous, I could not bear to háve anyone near me. I had
fainting spells, and I lost flesh every day. The first dose
of Cardui helped me. Now, I am entirely cured of the
fainting spells, and I cannot say enough for Cardui, for I
know it saved my life." It is the best tonic for women.
Do you suffer from any of the pains peculiar to women?
Take Cardui. It will help you. Ask your druggist

beginning. Plaintiffs allege that
they and those by, through and un-
der whom they claim title to said
land have had and held peaceable,
adverse and continuous possession
thereof, cultivating, using and en-
joying the same and paying all tax-1
es thereon under deed or deeds i
duly registered for a period of more
than five years prior to the filing
of this suit, and plaintiffs specially
plead the five years Statute of Lim-
itations in bar of any and all claims
asserted by defendants. Plaintiffs
allege that the deeds from Barton
Clark to Hannah Robinson, hi
daughter, and from Hannah Rob-
inson and her husband, Charlife
Robinson to R. N. Read have Jbeen
lost or destroyed and that .the
records of both of said deeds - were

ministered upon and that there is no
proof of record in Houston county,
Texas, to show that N. C. Faulkner,
M. A. Vanwinkle and H. D. Faulk-
ner were said W. D. Faulkner's sole
heirs. That by reason of. the loss
and destruction of the aforesaid
deeds and the records thereof and
the failure to administer upon the
estate of the said D. W. Faulkner
a cloud is cast upon the title of
plaintiffs to said property and
plaintiffs say that any other or
further claims or clouds against
said property is unknown to plain-
tiffs wherefore plaintiffs pray for
judgment quieting title to said land
in them, removing all clouds from
the title thereof, substituting and
replacing all missing deeds and in- :
struments and for general and
special relief. -
Herein fail not, but have before
said court, at its aforesaid next
regular term, this writ, with your
return thereon, showing how you
have executed the same.

the district court of ^Houston coun-
