THE BOOM IN EAST TEXAS .

The iron region, stretching from the
old town of jefferson down through the
| oak and pine lands into Cherokee and
adjacent counties has taken on Il genuine
boom, with no admixture of humbug-
gerry. All know the history of New Biz
mingham, one mile from the town of
Rusk, where real, bona fide manufac-
turing city is rising out of the woods as
fast as muscle and money can build it .
The vast deposits of ore underlying this
region is the magnet that is just now at
tracing Northern capital, not by the
hundreds of thousands, but by the
millions Not only is New Bir-
mingham to be built into city soon,
but the old town of Jefferson, which, be-
fore the days of the railroads in Texas,
was the great wholesale mart and dis
tributing point for North and Eastern
Texas, but latterly decayed, is to be
rebuilt into its former wealth and impor-
lance. Chicago capital is soon D trans
form a now dead town into live city of
blast furnaces, car wheel works, rolling
mills and other iron manufactures. The
future both of Jefferson and New
Birmingham cannot be doubted. The
capitalists who have taken them in hand
are not the sort to invest their means on
blind venture - Austin Statesman.

CANNING FACTORY

From an article published in the Texa
Journal of Horticulture: The outfit il
for the smallest capacity that could b,
run with profit, and will turn out from
5000 to 10 600 cans daily.
Cost of a boiler of twelve horse power
$3.50; open kettle, S25; crates, $40; ex,
haust box, So; Crane air pump, oil
tank, free pots, Gaping tools, SIS. To-
be proportionately increased by increas-
ing the number of kettles.
The expenses of running the establish
ment would be for cans, 81 a hundred
cases cents for p cans; peeling toma-
toes, 2 cents bucket; peeling and seed
ing peaches, 10 cents a bushel. Some
kind of shelter is necessary, but may be
very cheap, so that it is roomy enough
25x50 feet being sufficient.
1t is thus seen that very small sum
will be sufficient to start small canning
establishment. VIII it pay? The fruit
crop of the county is already consider
able and increases every year. There
cannot be d market for it unless it
is preserved by canning. An acre of
five-year-old peach trees will make 500
bushels of fruit At % cents a bushel
the fruit would be worth SIPS. This is
mere than three bales of cotton would
bring, and it takes more work to make
the cotton than to grow and gather the
fruit. Where they have canning fac
tories, fruit generally brings so cents a
bushel Then would it not pay our fruit
Growers to cooperate in establishing
canning factory?

being allowed to enter into the meats
sent into the country by INSCRIPTIONS
| packers, Gamers and vendors of corned
| beef and mince meat. 1t is an insidious
| affection that has spread over the coun-
| try so stealthily and so secretly that
| while legislative action has been secured
| or sought to eXtirpate all other great
| epidemics common to cattle, no step has
| ever been taken in the way of
relief from this. 1t is true that
as yet it has not gained the prominence
of pleuro-pneumonia or tuberculosis, for
instance, not being in its effect so in
simultaneously fatal as those diseases, but
it nevertheless has gained foothold in all
parts of this country where range cattle
raising is carried on. Dr. J. W. Gads-
den, famous veterinary surgeon of
Philadelphia, was examined before the
Butchers National Protective Associa-
ton last May, and that authority said in
substance: 81 regard big-jaw i'll cattle as
of a cancerOus nature, and one of those
diseases which make the meat from cat
tie infected with it quite unsafe as an ar
ticle of food. -
A Fort Worth cattleman whose bust
ness has given him vast opportunities for
observing the course of this plague yes
about it as it had come beneath his OBJ
servation. 1t seldom exists in an animal
without giving outward sign of its pres
ence in the way of running sore.
Steers that have it will take on fat as
well as if healthy until they reach the
age of three or four years, when they
fall off fast. If Il fat animal
affected with it is put on the market, it
is difficult to say what becomes of it.
They are sometimes killed and cast
away but there is no means for knowing
but that a great number are put up i'll
cans or sent out in the refrigerator
boxes, rs it is impossible to tell by the
look or feel of the meat wheather the
animal killed had the disease or not.
A microscopic, however, would be able
to see that the fibres were filled with
canserous germs which if not killed by
extreme heat in cooking would produse
cancer or similar affection in the
person eating the meat. The reporter 5
informant did not care TO take the
responsibility of asserting that such
meat was put up by the packers of the
north though he said credible parties had
declared they had seen big-iaw animals
being driven from the markets to the
slaughtering pens, and it was certain
large numbers of bg-iaw cattle were
placed upon the markets that were never
taken back to pasture; "'and -
he concluded "'thOugh no one
wants to accuse the packers of using
that kind OF meat, still lard is made from
cotton seed, butter is made from tallow,
and in fact the whole round of foods
could be shown to be under suspicion of
some such adulteratiOn, so it cannot be
unreasonable to suppose that all of the
packers are not too scrupulous to kill
big jaw cattle. And even if it were
known they do not handle diseased ami
mails, it is best to put the meat above
suspicion by having the cattle inspected
before being slaughtered. -

OF the composition of wool this esti-
mate has been given: Carbon, so per
cent. hydrogen, Z; nitrogen, II; oxy-
gen .ssf, and sulphur, 5. While IS per
cent would be organic, 2 per cent. would
hsash. The fibre varies in diameter,
ssthe delicate Saxon merino being the thir-
teenth-thousandth of an inch, and the
Southdown the eleventh thousandth
Soundness of fibre indicates health
Lustrous wool is long and strong, some
times twenty inches in length Old
sheep usually lose the power of produc-
ing the best wool. As rule, the wool
of marshy and stormy localities is poor,
though the wool of Shetland has always
been famous; but in this case the breed
has remained uncontaminated with infe-
rior breeds. The curls on some wool may
be from twelve to twenty-seven in an
inch. AS soon as the point of the fiber
has protruded through the skin of the
animal, series of growths take place.
One side grows faster than the other, and
causes the curl. The finer the wool the
greater is the tendency to curl.

THERE is railroad war in Canada in which the Ottawa government and the Canadian Pacific, on one side, are arrayed against the local government and inhabi- tants of Manitoba, and the Red River rail road people, who are in arms on the other side, prepared to fight, if necessary, about the laying of frog for a crossing of the two lines near Winnipeg. The Canadian Pacific, being monopoly and in posses sion, keeps an engine always running back and forward over the disputed spot, under strong, armed guard, which the, Mani tobans threaten to blow up, and may do so yet If the Canadian government cannot put down small frog war; of this kind, within its own territory, it certainly is rather ''cheeky" of it to, keep biting its thumb at the United States, on question like that of the fisheries, in which we have an interest that may one. day induce us to take hold of the Kanucks and shake them out of their fur-topped boots.

What We Mean By Fen Per Cent.

We are asked every day how we can af- ford to sell our fine clothing at such low figures. We admit that no business house in the wide world can afford to sell cloth ing at ten per cent profit, but we are direct manufacturers and we manufacture be. tween eight hundred thousand and a mil
 lion dollars worth of goods annually. We have six retail clothing stores in different parts of the United States. Now our ob- jset is to sell the quantity and. in our six retail stores we add to the cost to manu- fracture just 1Oper cent, which pays the running, expenses of each store: Now this is easily explained, that if between our six retail stores and our ten salesmen on the road we sell million dollars worth of goods per year, the discount on the cloths and trimmings is as much of a profit as we ask for, and we are perfectly satisfied with just making our discount on our goods. Therefore this explains to you how we can sell you onr fine clothing at such, low figures. Give us call and you will be convinced that we are the most reliable, ,and | cheapest clothing house in the state of Connecticut. Our factories are situated at 306 Market St and 43 North Third St. Philadelphia, Pa. ...,,,". -~---s -~,+! Hirsh's Ten Per Cent One Price Clothing Co, 135a Bank street. P.S.

 It is thought by meny, and the achieve mants that. already mark the history of steam and it's application bear out the View, that, before the twentieth century, vessels will be constructed having speed of thirty. to forty miles an hour. With the inventive genius that is constantly at work devising new schemes for the application of motive power, with the advances we have made ill the powers and possibilities of steam, with the improved methods that have been and will be devised for the con sumption of fuel and utilization of force, with our growing conception and appfica tion of electricity as a motive power, will yet be attained, and at DO ssibly less expense, than is now considered remarkable The steady improvement that has been notice able in the construction of transatlantic steamers, that has materially shortened the time of passage between Europe and America, has not yet reached its ultimate point Even under our present improved conditions we fail to extract all the power of our motive forces and their elements, and until such complete use can be secured no pent:up bounds can contract the powers of genius to apply them ---
 Macaulay's traveller from New Zealand, as he stands sketch book i'll hand looking to the dawn of new century, will surely trace, as one of the greatest achievements of the intellectual giants who have lived in this age, the attainment of speed in ocean travel that will unite the two heml- spheres by Q space of time less by half than l that which now separates them.

MIR GLADSTONE, when he compared the treatment of political prisoners in Naples with that meted out to them by MT Balfour in Ireland, probably had in mind his torical document of the time of the Par thenopeian republic which bears out his comparison. This document is a letter, culled by the Weekly Register from MT Cordy Jeaffreson's interesting life of Lady Hamilton-as the inspirer of Lord Nelson s policy, whose fleet then commanded the citys-a letter which set f orth the measures to be taken with the Neapolitans who had been driven into revolt by the despotic proceedings of King Ferdinand. :"The rebel patriots, she said, "must lay down their arms and surrepder at discretion.
