Texas is better provided for the
furthering of education than most of
the other Southern States, and the
State has ever been most generous in
that direction. Its permanent school
fund consists of 100000 acres of sur
veyed land and half the vacant do
mains, which amounts to about 49,
100000 acres. There is to the credit
of the fund in the treasury nearly 81
100000 of State and Railroad bonds,
and the annual sale Of lands is rapidly
enlarging the account. The least for
which the dedicated lands may be sold
is $3.50 an acre, so that Texas has set
apart to the cause of education the
magnificent sum of $54,000,000. This
is not for public school training alone /;
but the foundation has been laid for a
complete university education, fund
of 100000 in lands having been set
apart for the purpose. The university
will be at Austin. Texas is preparing
to give great honor to the South, and
will probably incite other States to
worthy efforts in the cause of popular
education.

1 LOW VOICE rs AN EXCEL

One of the peculiarities of a num-
Der of the uptown girls is that,
although they are handsome. they
talk in so coarse tone of voice, SO
much like man in fact. that they
could easily be mistaken for a man
if heard and not seen. These women
do not seem to comprehend that a
low, sweet voice in woman is a yery
pleasant thing. Some of these women
talk loud enough to be good droyers.
Voices fit for a political multitude
can be heard in private conversation.
even in ice-cream saloons. Think of
loving words being shouted at man
so they are heard nearly a block
distant.

CROPS IN RACINE COUNTY.

The Enterprise, published at Union
Grove, Racine county, has the follow
ing:
Never at this season of the year did
crops look more promising than at the
present time. Barley, flax and winter
wheat could not look better, while
corn is coming along finely, and if
everything continues favorable the
farmers will have every reason to be
satisfied with their crops. The yield
of hay is immense. while oats are
heading out in good shape.

THE DEMANDS OF THE STRIKING
TELEGRAPH OPERATORS.

The operators demand that they
shall receive extra pay for Sunday
work, when required to work that day !;
they demand that eight hours shall
constitute a days work, and seven
hours a nights work; that the two
sexes shall receive equal pay for equal
work, and that there shall be an adj
vance of Is per cent in salaries. With
these demands the companies refuse to
comply.
