CIRCUS WOMAN HURT.
Injuries Received During Dance May
Have Been Fatal.
Corslcana, Tex., Nov. 3.—During
the progress of the exhibition under
the big tent of Ringllng Brothers'
circus hero one of the woman per-
formers while going through the
"butterfly dance'' be.' ime suddenly
ill or was hurt and was borne from
the tent and did not again appear.
It was rumored here alj day that
she died soon after being taken to
the hospital, but It has been impos-
sible to learn whether or not tho ru-
mor of her death is true, as no local
physician was called and the circus
left town as usual soon after the per-
formance was over. One rumor was
j that In bending to one side during
the dance a steel in the woman's
corset broke and penetrated a Kid-
ney and that she lived only a few
moments after being taken from the
tent.

George Henderson of Nuda opened a
forty-five foot Kap in the bridge ot
the Iberia & Vermillion railroad over
the Petit canal to permit a dredge
boat to pass. The railroad is a
branch of the Southern Pacific. The
sheriff acted on authority of an or-
der Issued by Judge James Simmon
of the Eighteenth Judicial district
court. The legal point at issue was
the right of drainage board to open
thiB trestle to enable the dredge to
complete the construction of the Pe-
tit canal. For three months the
dredge has lain idle, unable to get
past the trestle, while legal contro-
versies proceeded In tne courts.

Simple Cum- for Neuralgia.
♦♦♦
Here Is a simple method of cur-
ing facial neuralgia: If the neural-
gia is in the right side of the face
the left hand should be placed In a
haRln of water an hot as can be
borne. Or if neuralgia is In the left
side of the face then the right hand
should be plnced In the hot water.
It Is asserted that In this way relief
may be obtained In less than five
minutes. The explanation Is that
the two nerves which oave the great-
est number of tacille^erve endings
are the fifth and tho median nerve
As the fibers of these two nerves
cross any Impulse conveyed to the
left hand will affect the right side
of the face, or If applied to the right
hand will affect the left side of the
face. This is on account of the
crossing of the cords.—Indian Re-

lie Writes From Whitney lo Lis
Friends lleiv.
Whitney, Tex., Nov.- 1. - Editors
of Courier-Gazette: As many ot
my friends are readers of your ex-
celleni paper I write t<> you that
they may in this way hoar from \is.
Mrs. Burrow and the children left
McKinney several days before
myself. I had some difficulty in se-
I'urinK a car. On Wednesday after
my family left on Friday I was notfl-
lier by the H. & T t\ freight agent
ihat a car was ready for nie and I
proceeded at once to load the car
and about 7 o'clock a freight trails
came along and much to my delight
the conductor. Mr. Speed proved an
old acquaintance of mine and the
son of one of my very best friends
in whose home I have spent many
pleasant hours. About 7: 0 o'c-
ciock the train began to switch
around very much like it was going
to leave McKinney hut if you have
ever rlden on a caboose attached to
a freight train you know that no-
body, not even the conductor, knows
just when it will leave a place. So
after an hour or two 1 decided it
was uncertain as to when we wouia
go, and I settled down In the con-
ductor's big arm chair and proceed-
ed to load a big cob pipe given me
by one of Joe Barnes' clerk's who
presented It. to mc as a last token
of our friendship, and pretty soon I
with my feet on top the stove and
my pipe going as satisfactorily as
could be, was lost to all around me
in contemplation of the many acts
of kindness shown me by the people
of McKinney and regretting that
those pleasant associations should
he severed, when all unexpectedly
to me I heard a mumbling noise
coming down the track and all tit
once something akin to an earth-
quake struck the caboose. My
chair went out from under me and 1
struck the floor. I think the bos-
om of my shirt was the tlrst place
thai struck the floor and when things
got quiet my pip© was in one cor-
ner of the caboose. The chain was
on top of me and I was on the floor,
but 1 was not hurt, and the scene
was ludicrous that I rather enjoyed
the change.
After we left McKinney nothing
out; of the ordinary occurred. 1 was
tlioroughlv shaken up but a^ter my
llrst loop the loop in the caboose at.
McKinney I was prepared for any
emergency and always came out se-
'■ond best, until we fiot down within
a few miles of Waco. I was riding
in the car with my household goods
and horse when I heard an unusul
cracking noise under my car that
not only alarmed me but my horse,
as well. I opened my car door and
turning to my faithful old aorse I
said good bye old friend and 1 made
another one of tnv balloon ascen-
sions and struck the ground it seem-
ed me about one hundred feet down
the road from where I was when I
left the car, but the engineer whose
eyes are ever open sawe me, stopped
his train and after an examination
of the car which was in a very bad
condition, we decided to try to run
Into Waco which we did. The car
was there condemned and my house
hold Roods and horse were trans-
ferred to another car and Friday
about 5 o'clock I sot to Whitney,
where I found my family all well
and we are now comfortably situat-
ed In a splendid home.

Ay ways Was Sick
When n man says he always was
sick troubled with a cough that
lasted all winter—what would you
think If he should say—he never
was sick since using Ballard's
Horehotind Syrup. Such a man ex-
ists. Mr. J. C. Clark, Denver, Col-
orado. writes: " For years I was
troubled with a severe cough that
would last all winter. This cough
left me in a miserable condition. I
tried Ballard's Horehotind Syrup
and have not, had a sick day since.
That's what It did for me." Sola

Do these black lines look the same to you?
We understand eyes and glasses. .
Our business to fit the one with the
other.
Take medicine when you do not
need it and you do yourself an Inju-
ry. Take headache medtclne when
the aches are caused by eye strain,
and the headache will never be re-
lieved. permanently. Fifty per cent
of all headaches are caused by eye
strain. Our sclenetlflc eye examina-
tion reveals the cause—our glasses
bring relief. We fit them right,
frames right, lenses right, prices
right. Come right Into our store
next time you are In town and let
us show you how wee an help your
eyes.
