The long continued rains and the thor
oughly saturated condition of the earth are
beginning to make farmers feel gloomy.
Fortunately the most of them, SO far as
heard from, took advantage of the, good
weather before Christmas and broke up
their lands, but they have not been able to
plant anything. Oats ought to be up now,
and corn should be in the ground. Some
muddy as it is, with the hope that it will
step raining so they can come up, The
wheat is suffering too. 1t is so muddy that
it cannot be pastured, and jointing as it is,
a late frost is liable to kill it. The farmers
hope for the best, however, and will not let
20 their grip to droop and Nope.

George Williams lives at Waxahachie,
coming from Montana to Texas. He form
erly was connected with circus, perform
ing feats of strength and wherever he is
known, he is noted for his great strength
and agility. In Montana he had two or
three prize fights in all of which he was
winner, but he never met any one IN the
ring of special note. He is in the prime of
his life, is about five feet seven inches high,
weighs two hundred pounds, and so great
is his strength that he can hold on his
right arm 200 pounds Of weight and write
his name with ease on the wall. He has
friends here in Dallas who propose to back
him against Sullivan, the American
champion, for $1,000 a side, and
as he Is willing to meet the champion
in the prize ring,,, it is posi-
bic the challenge will be issued. If
it should, it will be attempted to have the
fight at or near Dallas.
Those who know Williams well are will
ling to put up their last dollar on him, as
he has nerve, science, endurance and Won
derful strength. Williams can, by proper
course of training, reduce himself to l75 or
1870 pounds, when he will be only bone and
muscle and when in that trim he thinks he
he can knock bull elephant out OF time.

CHICAGO is all astir over some heated DIS
cussions on the theater question. Some OF
the community are censuripg the theater
managers for permitting on their stages
plays of questionable propriety MIR. NC
WICKER, BooTH's father-in-law, is being
severely criticised in this regard,
On the other hand, the theatrical
managers say that they furnish
only what the public demand and
that all evil in orthodox churches is not
found in theater-going, and that although
BERyHARDT, for instance, was open to critic
ISM on account of her past private character
and her immoral plays, yet that any who
saw her pieces were rendered no worse, but
better, for the exhibition. And so the con-
troversy is being daily kept up through the
newspapers, and much bad blood on either
side is cropping out. Some good must
certainly be evolved eventually from this
airing.

LAW TO PREVENT CORNERS.

The resolution offered by David Bingham at the
en- for the appointment of committee to frame a
bv-law to prevent corners in grain has caused much
comment. Recently resolution was adopted by the
Board of Managers not to recognize the proceedings
OF a meeting unless ii was called accordance with
the bylaws. and the action of Mr.. Bingham and
others is considered Illegal. 1t is asserted by Mr..
Bngham's supporters that the present rules of the
Exchange to prevent sharp practices by pools are
inadequate and that the liability Of those who may
be on either side of the market should be limited.
President Parker holds that the rules OF the Ex-
change must be considered ample, since there have
been no special complaints. One of the members Of
tie Board of Managers suggested that an amend
ment be made TO provide that any committee or
arbitrator or manager who may be called to con-
slider a complaint, who does not decide In favor Of
both parties the dispute, should be suspended for
three months.
