ONE OF the Developments in the
investigation Of the immigrant bust
ness in New York is that there are
societies in all parts Of Europe
specially interested in the shipment
OF criminals from those countries to
the United States. The payment
Of passage across the Atlantic
does not cost as much as years
support such wretches in u peniten-
tiary at their homes.

UNLESS your health worries you,
don't worry about it. 1t is usually
all right as long as you can sleep
and eat and do your normal work.
Begin to be concerned about any
organ and let your thoughts be
concentrated thereon. Only i'm
agine yourself i'll, and soon you
will have the luxury of becoming
an invalid. Switch off on the 9TH

advance. Imagine yourself well.

Scenes at the National Oapi-
taI-"Osppers" in the Hobbies.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Efficiently the
special wires were ordered ouE of the
lobby by Speaker Carlisle. They had be-
come q nuisance. Brokers and their esp
pers annoyed and disguised members who
had not succumoed to the gambling
mania. Congressman complained, how
ever, that 1t was difficult for them-they
had to climb two flights of stairs-to send
of telegraphic messages. Pressure was
brought to bear on tie Speaker and he
surrendered condltionally-the condition
being that the wires be not henceforth
used as Wall streets connecting links.
But the old order Of things has not
come back. One of the telegraph COM
panies went so far in replacing their coun-
tiers and screens as to hoist q screen
containing pane OF glass and window,
over which were the words, "stock indi-
Gator" z T the first two or three days
the manager of one Of the telegraph COM
panies kept 8 large card hung over the
words "stock indicator" and brokers
were not allowed to lean against the coun-
ter and importune members and strangers
for patronage in an open way. Now,
however, the corridor is as full Of broker
life as usual, and the signs are up for
business, the same as they were before
the attention of the country WAS called 10
the fact that the members of the House
are largely spectators.
At present all kinds OF beverages are
sold openly across the restaurant coun-
tiers at either end of the capitol. Men
approach the bar and drink with the same
nonchalance that charscterizes the
habitues OF the schooner dens and all
night places. One of these days, it is
expected, some one will raise a row about
this matter In Congress, and then the
thing will be shut down 80 closely that
policemen may be stationed at the doors
to examine everybody who enters for the
purpose of seeing that no intoxicating
fluids are upon their person.

THE INSANITY DUDGE gals.

james MCGOWAN Rrmcndsd re JAN to be
Tried for Assault to Mutaer.
Special to the Gazette. Exs,sss
SHERMAN, TEX, Feb. 27.-One OF the
most interesting cases ever tried in the
County court in this city was that Of
James MCGOWAN, which was on trial to-
day on o charge of lunacy. By ea. m.
the courthouse WAS crowded to over
flowing with visitors, who watched the
trial till m. The jury brought in a
verdict finding the prisoner not insane.
MCGOWAN is the man who attempted to
murder his wife's two sisters and mother
several weeks ago by sssaulting and
woundiDg each several times with q
pruning knife at the Blanchard hotel in this
city, owned and conducted by his wife's
mother, of which an account was given
in this paper. The prisoners friends
fled complaint sgainst hun charging him
with lunacy, as he has manifested evil
dences of lunacy since his incarceration,
refusing to eat portion of the time and
having had several attacks Of epilepsy.
By the evidence his family and relatives
failed to establish the charge of lunscy,
and the verdict of the jury sends him
back to the courts where he will be tried
on four charges of assault to murder.

Bright Outlook for Cattle

DENVER, Col, Feb. Pr. G. Head,
president Of the International Range As
soCistiop, and largely interested in the
range cattle business, returned to-day
from sn extensive trip in Southern Colo
rsdo, New Mexico and Texas. In an in
teryiew he stated that the report circulst-
ed in the east that the loss Of range cattle
this winter would resch from 80 to rs per
cent. is absolutely false. He said that
from personal observation he knew that
range cattle in Colorado, Texasn New
Mexico, Indian Territory. Wyoming, and
a portion of Arizona, were never in better
condition at tais season of the year
than at present, and that the losses
this year would be comparatively
nothing, that while STOCK is no. suffering
for ieec, snow is needed in Wy
oulrg, Colorado and Northern New
Msxico, while Southern New Mexico, In
dian Territory and Texas have had IN
abundance of rain, thereby insuring heavy
crops. There had been some mortality
among cattle in small portion of North
ern Arizo Ds and Texas south OF the Pan
handle, caused principally by overcrowded
ranges. Mr.. Head prophesies that in the
next two years the price of cattle will adj
vance, and those who have held their
stock through the depression for the past
three years will reap good financial har-
vest

A Souvenir of the Centennial.

I've kept this walking cane in money
vault many a long day said Columbus
gentleman yesterday. II took it out last
night and to-day to awaken memories that
are as dear 10 me as the days of my child
hood. 1t was not fathers legacy nor a
brothers gift, but | esteem it equally as
much as either. Five hundred dollars
wouldn't buy it, A friend that is friend,
gave it to me. 1t is not the value of the
gift that prize, but the spirit in which it
was given The circumstance was trifling,
but shall ever remember it.
my friend had just returned from the
centennial in 1876, and brought fer his dear
relatives a lot of trinkets. of which they
were justly proud But every male mem
Der of the family fancied this little cane
and wanted it. He refused them all and
gave it to me, having purchased it at dear
cost at the centennial and brought it ali the
way in his band specially for me. He per-
haps thought nothing Of it at the time, but
did and money could not purchase it,
1t was neatly polished cane, of a wood
much resembling the black thorn of Eng
land. 1t has forty-eight knots. occurring
at regular intervals, and tapers beautifully
from one-half inch in diameter at one end
to an eighth at the other. 1t was grown in
Asia.
