money goes. We feel sure that council
has acted for the best interests of the tax
payers but the people are entitled to this
information.

of council will be called to hear the
proposition.

Indigestion Causes
Catarrh of the
Stomach.
For many years it has been supposed that
Catarrh of the Stomach caused indigestion
and dyspepsia, but the truth is exactly the
opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Repeated
attacks of Indigestion inflames the
mucous membranes lining the stomach and
exposes the nerves of the stomach, thus causing
the glands to secrete mucin instead of
I the juices of natural digestion. This la
called Catarrh of the Stomach.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
relieves all inflammation of the mucous
membranes lining the stomach, protects the
nerves, and cures bad breath, sour risings,
a sense of fullness after eating, indigestion,
dyspepsia and all stomach troubles.

Texas Ccue In XVhieh Man Unjustly
Imprisoned May Jfobo

Thomas O'Connor, the Louisianlan
recently pardoned by Governor Lanham
of Texas from a life sentence in
j the penitentiary, is again at his home
In New Orleans with his wife and fonr
children after an absence of fifteen
years, says a New Orleans dispatch.
The story of O'Connor's life on the
Texas ranch, his trouble in a herder's
camp, his two trials and final conviction,
life imprisonment, the result of
what his friends claim was personal
spite and persecution to keep him out
of his dues of $30y000, reads like a
thrilling tale of western life, such as
might be found between paper backs.
FTls uncle, Tbomas O'Connor, settled
in Texas in 1833. He was a pioneer,1 a
cattle king, who numbered his stock by
the hundreds of thousands. He was
soon a millionaire. He settled at Copono,
Refugio county, and It was not
long before the veteran O'Connor practically
owned the entire county.
Thomas O'Connor, a nephew of the
eonlor OTrinnnr lpft hlfl home in New
Orleans and went to his uncle's ranch
In 1868 or 1868. He was young and active
and lived In the saddle. He took
charge of all the business on the trail.
"On April 30, 1871, my uncle gave me
his note for $30,000, with legal Interest,
for services," said Mr. O'Connor. "In
1871, while on the trail, I had trouble
with a Mexican named Dees. We
fought In the camp, and he cut me in
the throat, as this scar will show. I
killed the man in self defense. He
would not go on a herd and attacked
me. This was in Bosque county. I was
tried in the coort of that county, Judge
Woods on- the bench, and the jury
stood eleven for acquittal and one for j
conviction, and afterward the whole i
case was quashed.
"My unde, Thomas O'Connor, died
Oct 17, 1887, and I entered suit on the
note I held calling for $30,000, with j
legal interest Then a cousin of mine,
who was in charge of the estate, said |
he would pay the note, provided I
would get the full power of attorney
for ail my sisters and brothers in Ireland.
This was In 1880. I replied that
I never would sell the rights of my
brothers and sisters.
"When I refused to accede to his unreasonable
demands the old charges
were brought up against me in Busque
county. That was- nineteen years after
the case had been dismissed against
me. The courthouse in the meantime
had burned down, and all the records
in my case were destroyed.
"They tried me on those conditions,
and I was convicted and sentenced to

life imprisonment for the killing of this
Mexican nineteen pears before. It was
In 1890 that I was convicted.
"Among the witnesses against me
were severe! Mexicans, and one of
them setter the trial showed $500 he
said be had received for his evidence.
"They dragged me from my home
and fftmfjy in this city, and I served
in the Gfecas penitentiary for fifteen
years, at the expiration of which time
Governor Lenbam pagQooafl me. i
have now re-entered my suit oo the
$30,000 note In the federal court at San
Antonio. Ifcat wee the faoe of the
note, and It has been bearing legal Interest
during all that time. The cousin
who persecuted me is now dead. His j
children are In charge of the estate
in Texas, which Is still very wealthy.
At the time of my node's death It was
assessed at $8*000,000."

A man came before the magistrate In
Sydney, N. S. W., charged with canstag
unnecessary pain and suffering to
a flock of sheep by making them hustle
in the beat of the day. He defended
himself. "Your worship," he said,
"I know you often have to hustle yourself!"
"Quite so, quite so," returned
the magistrate, smiling blandly, and
then, putting his hand on his head,
which was quite bald, "hut I never
found that hustling improved the
growth of the wool, and I fine you 40
shillings."
