Jii C • Edwards.
Mr. Han is. who won Hie prize, de-
livered his speech in such an Impres-
sive and forcible manner that it elicit-
ed special applause.
There was a large assembly pres-
ent last, niglrt, including the parents
of the different schools and the par-
ents and friends of education in this
city. The exercises were most enter-
mining and Ihe friends of the respec-
tive speakers greeted their efforts
with special applause. If any general
criticism is expected it may be stated
that the young gentlemen chose good
and timely subjects and one or two of
them displayed marked oratorical
ability which brought down the house.
The entire program was especially in-
structive and all received unqualified
praise.
The entire entertainment reflected
great credit on the careful training
that (he contestants received, not as
yesterday afternoon In Judge Wal- :
thall's court Manuel Juarez was tried

another Mexican with a knife.

fatally stabbed Felipe Castennda as j
the latter was returning to his home j
on South El Paso street from his

South El Paso street aliout 12 o’clock
on the night of the lSth of last mouth

said Officer Duran yesterday after-
noon. "There is not the slightest or
faintest bit of truth to their statement
other than that, there really was a
slight difficulty between the conductor,
motorman and myself.
"Tho way the whole thing came
about was like this. 1 boarded the
car yesterday morning thinking to
come up town. 1 was a witness in the
murder trial which was called in the
district court yesterday morning and
was a little late In getting there, and
naturally, in a hurry.
"When I got on the car the con-
ductor came around and asked me for
my fare. 1 had on my uniform and
had my badge on the outside of my
vest. I pulled hack my coat and
showed it. lo him and told him Uiai I
was an officer. This failed to satisfy
him and he told me that i would have
to put my badge on the outside or
else pay my fare. 1 told him that i
would not do this and he called the
motormuu, who pulled the Iron handle
from his motor box .and came up to
me and the conductor told me to get.
olT. Tills i refused to do and the
motorman raised the motor handle as
if to strike me and I then pulled m.v
gun and told him Hiat if in* attempted
to strike me that. 1 would shoot him.
The weapon was an ugly one. and one
with which he could have inflicted an
ugly wound and 1 did not Intend to
take any chances.
"When 1 pulled by gun the conductor
left, the car and said that he was go-
of twenty-five years
tlary.

or two dollars for honest, intelligent medical advice they
invest from twenfs-five to seventy-five cents for a bottle of

Opium that are absolutely alarming. A mother who
would hold up her hands in holy horror at the thought
of her child drinking a glass of beer, which contains
from two to five per cent, of alcohol, gives to that child
with her own hands a patent medicine that contains from
seventeen to forty four per cent, of alcohol—to nay noth-
ing of opium and. cocaine! I have seen a temperance
woman, who raged at the thought of whisky, take bottle
after bottle of some ” bitters,” which contained five
times as much alcohol — and compared to which sherry,
port, claret and champagne were as harmless as the pink
lemonade at Sunday-school picnics. 1 have had women
rage in letters to this office because this magazine adver-
tised a certain rootbecr, with really no alcohol in it at
all, while all the time these same women were swallow*
ing bottle after bottle ot “Lydia PinkhanTs Vegetable

mothers of our children, in particular, must have their
eyes opened to the dangers that link in these patent
medicines. Here and there a hopeful.sign of an awak-
ening is seen. Slowly but surely the best magazines are
falling into line m their refusal to accept patcnt-medione
advertisements of any kind. Not long ago one of the
insurance 4 ompaim >» made an excellent move by requir-
ing its medical examiner to ask ot each subject for
insurance. ’’ Wind patent medicines have you used dur-
ing the last five years?” and gradually other insurance
companies are realizing the fac t that.the use of patent
mcdii mes is even more mjuiious than the use of alcoholic
liquors. But muc h still remains more should be done.
Public, interest must be more widely aroused.'
