WEATHERFORD TO CO-OPERATE
WITH OHTER TOWN8 IN SE-
CURING HIGHWAY.
The Chamber of Commerce meet-
ing last night was well attended and
1 a great deal of enthusiasm v/a3
! shown in the various matters up for
discussion.
A communication was road from
the secretary of tue JacksOoro Boar..
' of Trade showing tnat tuey were
! thorougnly interested in tne securing
:of the Meridian highway. Toe secre-
Jtary stated that after seeing an item
in the Sunday papers stating tnat the
logging party of the Meridian nigaway
was in Fort Worth Sunday and were
going north to Decatur, Bowie, Hen-
rietta and Wichita trails Monday, lie
^ had gotten in communication with
Mr. Colp, president of the Meridian
Highway Association and endeavored
to get them to consider the route
tfrom- Wichita Falls via Jacksboro,
Mineral Wells and Weatherford, and
that Mr. Colp had agreed to come to
Jacksbpro at 2 o’clock Tuesday, at
Mineral Wells at 7:30 and Weather-
ford at 10 o’clock Wednesday morn-
ing.
Mr' Erwin here stated that he had
talked with Mr. Heman of the Nat-
ional Highway Association, who was
accompanying the logging party, and
that Mr. Hernan urged that Weather-
for.d send representatives to meet
with their party at Jacksboro and at
Mineral Wells.
The matter was discussed at length
and the secretary was instructed to
get together a crowd to go to Jacks
boro and a special committee consist-
ing of T. R. Erwin, A. N. Grant and
W. H. Hutcheson was appointed to
work up an interest and get as many
as possible to go to Mineral Wells
Tuesday night and to encourage a
good attendance at a meeting Wed-
nesday morning at 10 o’clock at the
city hall.
President Barthold called attention
to the bad condition of the Millsap
road and stated that he had been told
that Weatherford was losing a great
deal of trade to Mineral Wells owing
to the condition of this road. The
matter was discussed at length, but
no definite action was taken as it was
suggested that Mr. Bullington had
agreed to move to this road with his
outfit in the near future.
Mr. Morland of the South Side Bak-
ery, made a statement in regard to
the shipping into Weatherford of
bread from other places and made an
appeal to the citizens to patronize
Weatherford bakeries, especially since
as good bread could be had here as
elsewhere. Quite a number of those
present discussed the matter and it
seemed the opinion of many that our
grocery merchants were largely to
blame for much of the bread shipped
into Weatherford, it being stated by
some of those present that even after
ordering Weatherford bread from
some of the stores the grocers would
send out-of-town bread.
A motion prevailed that a commit-
tee be appointed to confer with gro-
cerymen and see if they could be in-
duced to discontinue shipping bread
into Weatherford.
The question of organizing a Young
Men’s Business League was presented
and discussed at some length, it be-
ing stated that some of the young
men felt backward about taking a
leading part in the present organiza-
tion, which was composed largely of
older men, and others taking the po-
sition that we would rather have all
the young men of the town get into
the Chamber of Commerce and pull
for Weatherford, assuring them that
we were glad to have them take an
active part in ail matters of interest
to the city.
A motion prevailed that a special
committee of young men be appoint-
ed to confer with other young men
and endeavor to get their ideas in the
matter and report back at the next
meeting.
Injured Aviator at 8an Antonio.
San Antonio, Texas, March 28.—
Lieutenant Thomas S. Bowen of the
First Aero squadron, who was injur-
ed when his machine fell near Casas
Grandes, reached San Antonio Mon-
day and is under treatment at the
base hospital. His most serious in-
jury was a broken nose;
BLAME LOVE OF FINERY FOR
ALLEGED “8HOPLIFTING”
Dallas, Texas, March 28.—Several
young girls, arrested for alleged tak-
ing goods from local department
stores, were brought to the county
attorney's office yesterday as a r
of arrests made by the police,
view of the youth of the girls, It w
thought best by members of the staff
not to file formal proceedings against
them.
An older girl was formally charg-
ed with taking a $45 dress, a $20 hat,
a $5 corset and two $10 underskirts
from the Titche-Goettinger store. The
thefts were alleged to have occurred
on March 25.
Thefts have been reported at a
number of the local stores. The
young girls, who later were taken to
the county attorney’s office, were ta-
ken to the city detective headquar-
ters. There, it is said, they blamed
the love of fine clothes for the situa-
tion in which they were placed.
8UFFRAGI8TS ADMIT THAT
. AMENDMENT IS
LOST
SEVERE PUNISHMENT
Rv Associated Press
Washington, March 28.—Suffrage
leaders conceded last night that their
effort to bring the Susan B. Anthony
amendment before the house probably
will be defeated again when the judi-
ciary committee votes today on the
proposal. Of the twertty-one commit-
teemen they were assured of the sup-
port of only nine.
A possibility that the prohibition
amendment might be maneuvered in-
to such a position that the committee
would be requested to vote on it and
the suffrage proposal jointly also dis-
mayed the suffrage advocates.
Leaders said that one more effort
would be made to enlist the aid of
President Wilson in securing congres-
sional action. When the score of suf-
fragists who leave here April 9 for
a campaign in the West return to the
capital they will .report to the Presi-
dent on the results of their trip and
try again to secure his support.

THREE DAYS AFTERWARD

village of Illinois, Bend, Texas, across

were injured in a tornado last Friday

sistance for storm sufferers in the vi-
cinity of Courtney.

o’clock Friday evening and made a
clean path northeast.
Mt. Airy, N. C.—Mrs. Sarah M. Chap-
pell of this town, says: “I suffered ror
five years with womanly troubles, also
stomach troubles, and my punishment
was more than any one could tell.
I tried most every kind of medicine,
but none did me any good.
F read one day about Cardui, the wo-
man’s tonic, and I decided to try it. I
had not taken but about six bottles until
I was almost cured. It did me more
good than all the other medicines I had
vied, put together.
My friends began asking me why I
looked so well, and I told them about
Cardui. Several are now taking it.”
Do you, lady reader, suffer from any
of the ailments due to womanly trouble,
such as headache, backache, sideache,
sleeplessness, and that everlastingly tired
If so. let us urge you to give Cardui a
trial. We feel confident it will help you,
just as it has a million other women in
the past half century.
Begin taking Cardui to-day. You
won’t regret it. All druggists.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
By local applications, as they canno<
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There Is only one way to cure catarrh
al deafness, and that is by a constltu
tional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness fc
caused by an Inflamed condition of tht
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube
When this tube is Inflamed you have
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed, deafnes-
is the result. Unless the Inflammation
can be reduced and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing wil'
be destroyed forever. Many cases o*
deafness are causied by catarrh, whlcl
is an Inflamed condition of the mucou*
surfaces. Hall’s Catarrh Cure acts thra
the blood on the mucous surfaces ot
the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollar*
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness tha>
cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh
cure. Circulars free. All druggists
