More Etiquette Than Dinner.

The Boston Transcript says:-'The
evils of etiquette were lately illus
trated at the Paris Exhibition, where
that portion of the Commission which
undertook to look after newspaper
men gave a banquet to visiting cor
respondents from abroad. There
were about thirty guests and many
nations were represented. For music
the band of the Tsiganes had been en-
oaoed. The guests were seated, and
gave every sign of hungry expectancy.
Suddenly the band began to play the
national air of Belgium. Atsonce the
representatives of that nation rose
and remained standing until the tune
was ended. Out of poIiteness all the
other guests followed suit. A few
minutes later the strains of God Save
HE Queen resounded. These brought
the EnelishInen to their feet, and of
course everybody else rose. AS though
possessed of devils, or else so that no
one would be touched by Jealous feel
inos. the indefatigable band went
through its repertory of national airs,
and. as each tune came up, up went
the people of the corresponding ma
tionality, in special recognition of the
courtesy, and up went everybody else
in general recognition of the special
recognition. AT eleven o'clock the
concert. which had begun at seven
O'clock. ended with the 'Marseillaise.
Then. and not until then, the starved
Quests. who were ready to faint, were
aable to attack the side dishes left on
the table. Everything else had been

champions of Weehawken, crossed bats
at Schuetzen Park yesterday afternoon.
Both mines played a loose game until the

innings, but sharp fielding work on both
sides prolonged the game until the ninth
inning, when the Weehawkens got rat

The fall season of boxing and wrest-

lnaugurated at the club rooms of the
Scottish-American Athletic Club in this
city, commencing September IS.
Ihere will be seven classes in boxing
and three in wrestling. The weights in
boxing are at los, ITO. lis, 1875, 1856, 145 and
15S pounds, while in wrestling it is 115,
l9O and l45 pounds. A handsome gold
medal will be awarded to the winner in
each class, and as the competitions are
open any one will be allowed to enter.
w e want to make this thing as big a
success as the n we gave in 1857, when
our club turned out so many champions
said Secretary Henry S. Tuthill, of the
organization, several days ago. ''Our
main idea is to get a championship team
put OF this tournament, the same as we
dld two years ago, when we carried away
nearly all the Championship medals in
the different classes.
THE winners of our team in that wear
were 'Chappie' Moran, Cal Nc arthy, Ed.
Cahill, Ginger Mccormick and Pat
Cahill, who still holds the American
championship in the middle-weight class.
Every club should hold such O tourney,
and then none but the best men would be
entered in the several big championship
competitions"

ALLIANCE COTTON YARD
The Alliance People Said to Be
Dissatlsfis I'D With the Terms
of the Lease.

A we'll informed gentleman, member
of the county Farmers Alliance, says it is
quite certain that the county Alliance will
not approve the acceptance of the Brush
park lot by the Alliance committee. Said
he: "The resolution under which these
gentlemen were appointed stated that the
Alliance would expend an equal sum on
improving the lot with the oitizens of
Austin.
The citizens have subscribed no money
toward this matter, and although the Ali
ance committee have accepted the lease of
the lot from the city, they have no money
with which to put up the fence and the
necessary sheds, and they will not likely
get any from the Alliance until one-half OF
the amount is subscribed by the citizens
of Austin. Then again the lease is of toe
short duration. The County Alliance con
TEN plated lease of at least twenty five
years. The Alliance will hardly agree tc
expend as much as $4,000 upon the lot
when the term of the lease is only five
years."
"Was not a resolution adopted at the
same meeting OF the Alliance authorizing
this committee to make such contract
with the citizens or the city as they
deemed BEST" asked STATESMAN repre-.
sentative.
"Yes, that is true, but the County Ali
ance contemplated that the citizens would
subscribe one-half of the amount neces.
sary to put the fixtures on the lot. One
thing is certain, the committee has nc
money and they are not likely to get any
unless the citizens meet the Alliance half
way"
"But," interposed the newspaper man,
"the committee was authorized by the AL
lance to make such II contract as seemed
best and they have received the lot and it
is believed intend to 60 forward with the
improvements at once"
"Wsll, if they do they will pay for it out
of their own pockets. The Alliance will
not ratify their action. The citizens will
have to put up"

The Value of Longevity.

DR.. Felix l.. Oswald, in writing of the
value of longevity, says:
"Can there be doubt that Burns and
Keats foresaw the issue of their struggle
against bigotry, or that Cervantes, in the
gloom of his misery, could read the signs
of the dawn presaging sunburst of
posthumous fame?
"Spinoza and Schiller died at the TIRES
hold OF their goal; Pascal, Harvey Macau-
ley, Buckle and Bichat left their inimitable
works half finished; Raphael, Mozart and
Byron died at the verge of summit which
perhaps no other foot shall ever approach.
"Who knows how often, since the dawn
of modern science, the chill of death has
palsied hand that had all but lifted the
veil of Isle temple? Or in how many
thousand lives time alone would have
solved all discords into harmonies? An
increase of longevity would indeed, solve
the vexing riddles of existence; it would
furnish the peculiar endorsement of Mr.
Mallock's conclusion. 1t would give the
vcissitudes Of fortune chance to assert
their equalizing tendencies, it would sup
ply a missing link in the arguments of
that natural religion that trusts the equi-
poise of justice in the apparent caprices
of human fate.
"The price of longevity would redeem
the mortgage of our earthly paradise
and it can be prolonged and should be,
with care and the use of proper medicine
at the right time.
Owing to the stress, the worry and the
annoyance of every day life, there is no
doubt but that tens of thousands of men
and women yearly fill premature graves.
Especially after middle life should a
careful watch be kept over ones physical
condition. The symptoms of kidney dis
ease, such as becoming easily tired, head
ache, neuralgia, feeble heart action, tickle
appetite, splendid feeling one day and
an all-gone one the next, persistent cough,
trouble in urinating, ETC., should be dill
igently looked into and at once stopped
through faithful use of Warmers Safe
Cure, which has cured tens of thousands OF
such troubles a:d will cure yours.
Experiencing no pain in the region OF
the kidneys is no evidence that they are
not diseased as those great purifying or
gans have very few nerves of sensation,
and oftentlmes the kidneys are positively
r1tting and being passed away through
the urine before the victim is aware he Is
suffering from advanced kidney disease,
which is only another name for Bright's
disease.
To preserve life and to be we'll while you
live are two cardinal virtues, and it is time
we'll spent to give this vital subject ear
nest and careful attention, and to use the
knowledge acquired in a judicious and in
telligent manner.

THE COTTON Mill PROJECT.
The Probability of an Early solu-
ton of the Matter.

A STATESMAN reporter yesterday ap-
preached Chairman A. P. Woodbridge OF
the hoard of trade committee, upon the
cotton mill project, in regard to the prog
ress of the committees Investigation.
Mr.. Woodbridge said that he had put him,
self in communication with practical MIL
men, and that he would soon be IN posi-
ton to make practical recommen-
dstions to the board OF traae.
Mr.. Woodbridge has recently visited
Dallas, and while there he had
a conference with President Blansenshlp,
of the Dallas cotton mill, and, from IN
formation now In his possession, he
thought it very probable that the commit
tee would recommend that company be
organized and that subscription books be
opened not later than June l. He has
also been making inquiries as to the cost
of erecting dam across the Colorado, and
he thought that the work could be accom-
plished for ABBOTT $4,000. Mr.. Wool
bride is pleased with the prospect for the
early organization of stock company,
and in conclusion said: 81 do not see the
necessity of delay ia the matter, and as
soon as hear from the inquiries now sent
out shall make definite suggestion to
the committee, who will in turn report to
the board of trade, so that something will
be done at once IN the matter"

On the ocean cares little about storm Ia

glassful or two of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
he feels renewed interest in his personal
safety. This fine corrective neutralizes in

rise to disorders of the stomach, liver and
bowels. To the mariner, the tourist the
Western pioneer and miner, the Bitters is
invaluable as means of protection against
