Good InIIuence Of BusIness women.

|
The entrance of women upon 81
many different occupations has n,
doubt been Of great benefit to th'
women themselves. When girls hav'
have a business upon which they car
depend for a livelihood they ar,
much less likely to entertain foolisl
notions of courtship and marriage
than they otherwise would be. As
sociation in the business relations ol
life shows the women what men really
are, and just as the girl who has been
brought up in school with boys, is,
as q rule, by no means as romantic as
her sister reared in a boarding school,
just SO the women who daily mingle
with men in business, learn to appre-
ciate them at their real value, to
knowsthem as they are, and not as
when they are dressed up for compa-
ny. This is one advantage, and al
though the novels present very en-
ticing view of life in general and of
courtship and marriage in particular,
yet it is still better to see the world
as it is than through the rosy spec
tacles which cover a novelist's eyes,
and if engaging In business makes a
woman more sensible and less likely
to make fool of herself by marry
ing the first brainless idiot who
chances to come along and ask her,
no one can deny that the result is ex-
tremely beneficial to the woman,
however it may be for the idiot afore
said.
But the result of the presence Of
women in public Offices as clerks,
book keepers, stenographers, type
writer's, ticket agents, and other call
ings which bring them into intimate
association with the business world,
promises to be quite as beneficial for
the men employed there. Men. and
young men thrown togeth-
er in crowds, are seldom choice in
their language or particular in their
conduct. Every one remembers how

number of young men are present,

The Texas Immigration Problem.

| ENA oIAiiort - OA's fAPAA - w
Editor FREE PRESS: thought
would drop you a few lines to giv'
you the opinion of some of the citl
zens of south west Texas in regard tt
what is commonly called the Texas
Emigrant boom. It is astonishing
to us to see to what an extent
some of our Texas papers are blow
ing over it. In our opinion it is an
other one of DR.. Kingsburys SOAP
bubbles. Booms pay mems way to
come here that are so poor that they
can't get away. That class of emf
grants are valuable for Texas. God
prevent such emigrants from coming,
is the wish OF this part Of the state.
We are in favor of soliciting good en-
igrants, but not paupers.
In the first place what inducements
have we to hold out to intelligent
emigrants to come to Texas? Very
few Just now. Good climate and
health is about all, for we can't say a
word, in truth, in praise of our facili-
ties for cheap land. Our cheap land
is humbug, and a farce too dis
graceful to hold up to an intelligent
public. No sensible man wants to
go to any state to make ''peon" out
of himself for 40 years Even if the
state would allow emigrants to pay
for the land at once, the land is too
high in price. Every stock man will
side with me when I tell you that you
cln't afford to pay $2 per acre for
land to Craze stock on. And the
farming lands at SO are entirely too
high in comparison with other states
where you can buy the 1est lands,
both timbered and farming at $1.25
per acre. Why come here and pay
$2, SO and IS per acre? They won't
come, that is all there is of it. Our
lands are out of reason too high.
Why, Mr.. Editor, have just done
some figuring this evening. The re-
suit astonished me. I find that when
an emigrant comes to Texas and pur-
chases $40 acres of land at, say so.
per acre, that makes 81, $50; now, sir,
this emigrant commences paying for
his little home on the 40 years prin-
cipla, and at the end of 10 years, we
find, he has paid the state SS68.95,
and for that amount the state has
credited him on his note for his little
home, the sum OF $780,, still leaving
him to pay S970. to sweat over for
30 years longer, if he should live that
ong.
Those figures are inducements for
emigrants to come TO Texas

BOsQUE WOODS.


The Bosque Woods are green and lair,
Beneath sunny sky;
Warm sweep the gales of Southern air,
In rhythmic cadence by.
o Bosque Woodsl verdant wall
'Twixt me, and thy broad stream
Whose gentle wavelets rise and fall,
Like music In dream!
o Woods. o River! bright as day
Sweet are ye both to me!
A calm retreat--a crystal way
On to the Southern seal
The Red-Bud fushes mid thy trees;
The Wild-Plum's blooming snow,
Is showring perfume on the breeze
Where timid ground flowers blow.
Birds sing, and fit from tree to tree;
The distant low of kline,
With tinkling bells, are borne to me
Along the forest line,
Through all these lovely verdant aisles,
Soft shadows come and 60;
While sunshine with its golden smiles
Is floating to and fro.
o Bosque Woodsl if all my days
Might be as calm as thine,
Within these fair sequester'd ways,
How sweet a life were mine.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Sept. a.-The trou-

broken out afresh, this time extending
to the Sioux, Piegans and Grosventres.
The disatfection of the Indians is said to
be widespread, and in addition to this
they are in a starving condition. Gen.
Ruger has ordered a troop of cavalry
from Fort Custer to Bull Mountain sta
ton, Montana, for the purpose of watch
ing the crossings on the Yellowstone be-
tween Custer station and Huntley. The
troops will take ten days rations and

intercept and capture y war party of
Sioux Indians of the Poplar River
agency, who are reported on a raid to
the Crow agency. Another troop of
cavalry has been ordered to proceed from
Custer station down the Yellowstone to
the mouth of Big PorcuPine river, and

of lofty patriotism, as well as deep re-

resident trustee of the Mitchell Reform
school, called upon the governor to see
what he proposed to do regarding the
scandal in connection with the school.
The governor said that after carefully
considering the charges, he did not think
there was enough to them to warrant the
state in making an investigation. The
charge in brief is that the superintendent
has been allowing girls sent to the
school to leave for work in private fam
lilies in violation of the law, and that in
one or two instances they had fallen into
immoral practices while so away.

LONDON, Sept. 8.-The reports received
through st. Petersburg of the revolt in
Afgtanistan, and the proclaiming OF
Ishak Khan as ameer by the northern
tribes. may herald the approach of a
revolution which viii greatly interest
Russia aud England. The latter has
every reason to support the claims of the
present incumbent of the semi barbarous
Afghan throne, as he was placed upon
the throne by England, and because he
has strong leanings toward the friend
who put him in power. Russia, on the
contrary, would take pleasure in seeing
Ameer Abdurrahman deprived of his
throne and another man set up who was
more friendly to Russia, and who would
no receive English direction. 1t
is limited in semi official circles
here that the czar has possibly had some
hand in the present revolt, which has
proclaimed lshak Khan, u pro Russian,
ameer., The present a1neer is not the
legal occupant to the throne, but is the
nephew of Sbero Ali, the late afneer,
who had two sons, Yacob and Ayoub
Khan. Yacob is an idiot and is sup
