Lanham yesterday afternoon paroled
the first convict under the new parol
Jaw passed by the last legislature pro-

victs. The good fortune to be imroled
under this new law fell to Pablo Orne-
las a Mexican convicted for murder
in 1888 from Webb county and sen-
tenced to life Imprisonment in the pen-
itentiary.
The law provides thit all cases
wherein the accused Is convicted for
murder in the first degree the offen-
der must have served fifteen years bo-
fore he is eligible for paroling and
Ornelas has served sixteen years
without a sustained charge of miscon-
duct. •
When the state penitentiary board
met here last Wednesday there were
five applications for parole under the
new law and the board recommended
to the governor the case of Ornelas
with the result that the convict was
given his conditional liberty Under
the law Ornelas must make a report
every month of his whereabouts also
how he has been employed during the
month and many other particulars re-
garding his movements. Thin report
1 smade to the state penitentiary
board. If he in any way violates the
conditions of his parole he is sent
back to the penitentiary and can not
again be re-paroled. Pablo lives in
Mexico but he can not leave the Unit-
ed States without the permission of
the governor.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful it Is In
Preserving Health and Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that char-
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same clean-
sing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of It the better; it is not a
drug at ail but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
In the stomach and intestines and
carries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and Im-
proves the complexion it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
If absorbs the injurious gases which
collect In the stomach and bowels; It
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal In one
form or another but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
Is In Stuart's Charcoal Loxenges;
they are composed of the finest pow-
dered Willow charcoal and other
harmless antiseptics in tablet form or
rather In the form of large pleasant
tasting loxenges. the charcoal being
mixed with honey.
The dally use of these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved condi-
tion of the general health better com-
plexion sweeter breath and purer
blood and the beauty of it is that no
possible harm can result from their
continued use but on the contrary
great benefit.
a Buffalo physician in speaking of
the benefits of charcoal savs: “I ad-
vise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels and to clear the complex-
ion and purify the breath mouth and
throat; I also believe the liver is
greatly benefited by the dally use of
them; they cost but twenty-five cents
a box at drug stores and although in
’.om* sense a patent preparation yet
I believe I get more and better char-
coal In Stuart's Charcoal Lozenge*
than In any of the ordinary charcoal
tablets.”

Doan's Kidney Pills.
Mrs. A. Peters of 902 North Mes-
quite St. San Antonio. Tex. says; "In
April 1903 when living at 445 Cassi-
ano St. I used Doan's Kidney Pills
sold at the Bexar Drug Store and
Fischer & Springall and obtained
more relief from the treatment than
from any other remedy I ever used.
For a long time I had been suffering
from heavy pains in the small of my*
back aad digressing irregularities of
the kidney secretion which scalded
and showed a brick dust sediment. I
was affected with headaches and diz-
ziness and the least exertion tired me.
Doan's Kidney Pills rid me of all
these troubles and during the inter-
val there has been no return of them.”

NOTED LECTURER WILL
BE HERE THIS WEEK.
The church-going and general pub-
lic of San Antonio is promised a series
of discourses on the 19th instant in
the old Y. 31. C. A. hall corner Losoya
and Crockett streets by Paul 8. L.
Johnson. It is slated that Mr. Johnson
will lecture In the afternon at 3:30 on
the “Resurrection" and at 7:30 p. m.
he will use as his subject “The Judg-
ment.' ’
Mr. Johnson claims that the hope
of his race the Jews now being so
bitterly persecuted in Russia centers
in the promise which God made to
Abraham which implies a resurrec-
tion; that this ressurection has been
made possible by the death and resur-
rection of Christ the Messiah and that
while his race rejected Christ as the
Messiah at his first advent ihey did
so largely if not wholly through ignor-
ance and that when this blindness
ahall be removed the Jews will hail
the Great Jew as the true Messiah.
In the evening discourses on “The
Judgment" it is announced that Mr.
will show from the original
Hebrew and GreeK with which he is
thoroughly familiar that judgment
day is to be the crowning feature in
God's great plan with respect to man
—the faithful followers of Christ first
but -afterwards and through them the
oppressed and downtrodden through-
mn tin enrtli will be lifted up and
blessed and injustice and oppression
will be things of the past.
It is said that there is nothing of
the sensational in Mr. Johnson's dis-
courses but that he reasons from
cause to effect in all the propositions
he lays before his hearers and shows
that there can only be correct con-
clusions by first having current premi-
ses from which to reach these conclus-
ions. Admission and seats free and no
collections will be taken as Mr. John-
son travels under the auspices of the
Watch Tower Bible and Tract society
of Alleghany.
NO SCORE IN THE
FOOTBALL CURIE
For nearly iwo hours two thousand
spectators watched eagerly the High
school and the West Texas Military
academy football teams surge back-
ward and forward on the San Pedro
gridiron and no team scoring.
Each team was easily held on
downs and forced to .lek only to
have the process repeated by their
opponents.
The playing was nearly always in
West Texas territory and the High
school goal was never in danger.
Though the West Texas team play-
ed more confident of scoring their
heavy line bucks gradually
stopped.
Much fumbling of the ball probably
affected the game and helped produce
the tie.
West Texai backs were the stars
of their teams and behind the good
interference advanced the ball well.
For the High school Adams and A.
81en and Carrico proeably lea in
fierce and fast playing though the
team a* a whole played beyond the
expectation of their friends.
Officials:
Dr. Stout —Referee.
Prof. Cummings—Umpire.
Rifenburg and Blalock —Timekeep-
ers.
Final score —0 to 0-
