UPON no occasion heretofore has Col.
Hoxies real magnanimity and kindly dis
position towards his employees been more
signally evidenced than in his reply to
the proposition of the strikers for con-
ference published this morning. Col.
Hoxie practically carries out the divine
precept of rendering good for evil, and
in the light of the vice-president's answer
many of the strikers will no doubt, not
only become ashamed, but be willing to
"kick themselves" Possibly it is begin
ming to dawn upon some of the Texas
employees of Col. Hoxie that they have
been badly sold out and made tools of for
the purposes of other people.

INFORMATION from every part of the
State of Texas last night indicates that,
as far as this state is concerned, there is
no more danger from the strike. Per-
haps fortunately for us, too many of our
roads are in the hands of the United
States courts, and the strikers have found
out that it is useless to buck up
against "Uncle Sam" One notable fact
is, that nowhere in Texas do the strikers
seem to be endorsed or sustained by the
citizens. This, however, is true in other
states. There may be some violence at
remote places, but arrangements are too
perfect to allow any fear of any such de-
structiOn of property as occurred by the
riots of 1877. When the strikers are fully
convinced that they can accomplish moth
ing, they will go to work, and in all
probability by the end of the week freight
trains will be running as formerly, giving
our merchants a full return to business.

WHY IS IT

That rheumatism and neuralgia are 70
prevalent This question haa not been
satisfactorily answered, but II Is eertaln
that these diseases are not only the most
painful but among the most common, and

We Are Growing.

Twenty-Five years ago we were 80.
100000 of people; now we are nearly
60, ,000,000 Then we had 1il cities and
we have 2S6 of such cities and towns.
Then the total population of our cities
was 5000, 600, now it is about l., ,00O,-
900.
Our coal mines then produced II, ,000,- :
600 tons, now Sj,000,000 tons or six
times as much.
The iron product amounted to 9O0,-
600 tons of ore; to-day it foOtS up over
5000, 900 tons year, almost nine fold
increase.
In 1860 our metal industries employ
ed about 80, 600 hands, consumed $780,
0J0, 600 worth of material, and turned
out about S1S0,000,0 900 in annual pro-
ducts.
To-day these industries employ 300,-
600 hands, consume S3S0,000,000 of
material, and their annual product
amounts to $3.50, 900, 900 a year.
In 1850 the wood industries employed
130,00O persons; to-day they employ
3i0, 900, while the value of their annual
products has trebled.
The woolen industry employed 600
persons then, and now employ 100, 900.
while our home mills, which produced
goods of the value of SO, ,000in 1860,
now turn out an annual product worth
S270, 0,0OO,0 900.
Finally there is cotton. In 1860 we
imported 220,000,000 yards of cotton
goods; in 1881 we only imported 20, Co.,
600 yards.
In the meantlme the number of hands
employed in American cotton mills has
increased TO 100000, and we export
over 1j0, 900, 900 yards of cotton goods
year, instead of importing 227, 900, 600
yards as we used to do.
Finally, the total of our exports has
doubled. In 1860 it stood at S400, ,000,-
600, and now it stands at about S900,-
100000.

The Beard of Charles v.

Apropos of the burial of King Alfon-
20 in the Escurial, L remember curious
thing that occurred to me there fifte II
or sixteen years ago. The tombs of the
Spanish kings-for 1 forget what reason
had been opened. l had Il courier
with me, who was a friend of their
guardian, so he showed US the exposed
monarchs. AS we were looking at
Charles V the guardian stopped down
and handed the courier pinch Of the
dead emperor's beard and offered me
one. Not caring for these sort Of
mOrtuary spoils 1 declined; but L
suppose that had l accepted it many
would have regarded it as curiosity if
l had offered 1t to them.

LACK OF TACT.

How Many Otherwise Good People Make
Themselves Unpopular and Disliked.
The proverb, "Some peoples fingers
are all thumbs,'' describes those who
lack that delicate moral touch which is
called tact The word comes from a
Latin word meaning to touch, and de-
notes the power of quickly perceiving
and readily doing what is required by
circumstances 1t is prompted by the
desire to be kind in kindly way. 1t
makes people comfortable by humoring
them, so that they feel at their ease
and are inclined to put their best side
uppermost:
The most irritating thorns in social
life are the ''Joe Blunts,~ who blurt
out offensive remarks with the apollo
getic clause: "You know l always say
what I think-there's no deceit about

ant to learn industry. We would send

in the well-tilled par}or will be dis

A recent writer, in giving several H.
lustrations OF the lack of tact, tells Of a
lady, who, being 3 guest, enforced her
refusal to take broiled ham by the re-
mark: Il don't think pork is fit food
for any human stomach"

they were aTTaigned District Attor-
ney MARITIME addressed the court.
and said that indictments had been found
against the prisoners on the charge of
bribery. In consideration of the fact that
there were twenty separate indictments
against the defendants as well as that they
had made large sums of money out of the
Broadway transaction. and that the pris-
onerS were men OF wealth, and that ordl-
nary bail would be nothing for them to
forfeit, he asked that bail be fixed at
$4,000 each. Ex-Judge Fullerton. Of
counsel for the prisoners, said that it was
most extraordinary proceeding. Nothing
like 1t had ever occurred in the county be-
fore, or even in the courts of the country
or English courts. A mans reputed wealth
had never before been considered i'm
a demand for bail. The court fixed bail at
$50, 900 each for Sharp and Forshay. and
S25. 600 In the case Of Richmond, who is
already under $25, 900 bail on another in
dictment. Bonds were perfected and the
prisoners were set at liberty. Thomas b.
Kerr. another of the indicted alleged bride
givers, subsequently appeared and was re-
leased on bail. The indictments against the
prisoners charged each with having bribed
one or another OF the twenty aldermen by
paying each $40, 900 to vote in favor of the
granting OF the Broadway surface railroad
franchise. Who the twenty-tirst person, to
whom the money was paid, is is a matter
of conjecture. Billy Maloney is thought to
be the man.
