many lives are not sacrificed in this way

THE LAST OF THE BUFFALOES.
Harper's Magazine.
At the present time, outside of the
National PAX, where about 260 buffaloes
are now harbored, there are not over
300, probably not as many, left in the
whole United States. The survivors of
this magnificent race of animals are
scattered in little punches in several To-
calities. There are about 100 in Mon
tana, or at least there were a year ago,
some at the head of Dry Creek and the
remainder at the head of Porcupine
Creek. In Wyoming there are few
stragglers from the National Park, which.
when chased, run back there for protec-
tion. In the mountains of Colorado,
last summer, there were two punches of
mountain bison, one of 25 and the other
of ii. These have probably been killed.
There are none in Dakota, though Is
months ago 80 were known to be there.

SILENCE is worth its weight in gold
in many crises of human experience
When trouble comes, when passions are
aroused, when excitement unneryes, 81
lence, until the feelings and the reason
are restored to normal conditions, will
prevent many hasty, ill-timed word or
act which would be followed by days of
regret and sorrow. Calmness in critical
situations and experiences should be
cultivated, for it will prove weapon
ana a shield which are not to be de-
Spised.

SEEING EUROPE.
burgh Chronicle-Telegraph.

Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph.
Many heads of American families with
moderate incomes have discovered that
there is a way of enjoying a portion of
Europe, viz, by settling down in some
town over there, adjusting expenses to
the local standard, taking occasional
cheap excursions, and meanwhile Sc
curing at reasonable rates, such art ad-
vantages as are offered.
This is different way from rushing
over Europe, putting up at expensive
hotels, paying large sums for railroad
fare, ETC., way only open to persons of
considerable means, and not after all
the most satisfactory mode of foreign
life.
In the representative German towns
there is usually an Anglo-American col
Ony, and among them, people who are
not in Europe for dress and fashion and
extravaganza of any kind, but sensible
people who mean to have musical and
other art advantages, and live at a less
cost than at home. To cultivate these
and avoid the rich and reckless is a die
tate of prudence
There are other things to be learned
in Germany besides the language and
the fine arts. Our American families
can readily find there a judicious thrift
and capacity for innocent and mex
pensive amusements, and an unwritten
code of social relations between the
members of households, particularly the
relation of parents and children, that
may most protitably be taken to heart.
We have not reached perfectibility
here, and a well-managed residence in
parts of France or Germany for few
years ought to be of real service to many
American families, and it is an expert
ment that has much to recommend it.

NEVER repent, unless by repentance
you mean drawing lessons from past ex-
perience. Beating against the bars of
fate you will only wound yourself, and
mar what yet remains in you. Grief for
the past is useful so far as it can be
transmitted into renewed force for the
future.

IT appeareth in nothing more that

THEY WANT PROTECTION,

Texas Ice Companies Complain About
Low Freight Rates.
Special to the statesman.
WASHINGTON, D. c., April pa petition
hls been fled with the interstate commerce
commission, which will probably take its
place as the fist of its kiud on the rec
ords.
It alleges that the Missouri Pacific the
Texas Poetic, the Gulf, Colorado and
Santa Fe and the Fort Worth, Denver and
Texas roads have been guilty of unjust
discrimination toward the complainauts,
in that said roads have not charged
enough for handling freight of certain
kind in Texas.
This sounds queer, but the petitioners
are IN dead earnest and the complaint has
been made In good faith. The document
is signed by the Off pers Of the Fort Worth
Ice company, the Corsioana Ice company,
the Denison Crystal Ice com pany, the La
redo Ice factory, the Texarkana Ice cum
pany, the Richardson Ice works of Dallas
and the Dallas Ice factory.
The petitioners aver that on other
classes of freight the rates have been ad
vanced since the passage of the interstate
law, and while they do not complain of the
increased rates charged by the roads lead
ing to Texas, they take the position that
if the rates are increased on one article, il
is but Just and fair that they should be in
creased on all in like proportion, the in
ference being that the petitioners wish
to compel this roads to advance the rates
on Joe in order that they may be pro-
teoted in the industry of manufacturing
ice in Texas. If the demand had come
from New England prOteclonistS no one
would DO much surprised at it, but the
railroad people were making themselves
merry yesterday over the paradox of 4
complaint alleging low freights as an in
jlry to the people of Texas.

LINES FROM LLANO.

Railroad News Cheering, and Increased
Activity IN Real Estate.
Special to the Statesman.
LLANo, April 29.-The surveying corps
of the San Antonio and Arkansas Pass
railroad are expected in to. morrow. The
line will be then surveyed and located from
this point south to south line of this
county and grading will commence at
once on this division.
Since our railroad matters have assumed
tangible shape, inquiries for real estate In
and around town have become more nu-
merous.
Mr.. Miles Barber on yesterday sold his
land, over 100 acres, lying east of town
and between it and Oatman creek, for
$1,000. The deed was made to a local
land agent, but 1t is generally understood
hat Don-residents have been the pur-
chasers.
The Advocate Office has changed hands.
The proprietors of the News have
bought it, and we will now have but one
paper for awhile at least.

FROM DUVAL.

Crops in Need of RAln-The Corn and
Cotton Acreage PIcnic, Etc.
Special to the Statesman.
DUAL, April 29.-The long threatene d
rain has ceased to threaten, and the
thirsty soil and wiIted vegetation seem to
have abandoned themselves to despair.
We have not had any rain since the Sd
inst. AMI then only Ito inches. Unless We
get one at once the oat crop of this Sec
ton will be very light. Early sown oats
aud volunteers are beginning to whiten
for the harvts er, while late grain is very
stunted. Corn is very backward, and
cotton making little growth. The long
spell of dry weather has allowed farmers
to thoroughly work their crops, and fields
are generally clean and in good condition
Thsre will be big peach'and plum crop,
and dewberries are plentiful, and as to
huuters the woods are full of them.
The sylvan glades and basky dells of
Walnut were yesterday invaded by swarms
of FAIRIES, that held high
reve: midst the ferns and
braeken. They could be plainly seen
with the naked eye fitting about from
fern to flower. Some perched on the
bending limb of giant tree; others, and
generally pairs, hid under the shelterlng
shade OF creeping vines or COOL inviting
caves. Ticks, ants, snakes and spiders
had no terror for them. Silvery lAug liter,
su,h as only the fairies can supply, re-
sounded through the woods and rivaled
the music of the feathered songsters. All
nature was In harmony and the picture
was one rarely witnessed by moi tails.
A union picnic, composed of the Sun
day school children of the Presbyterian
and Ba ptist churches and their friends,
was held In a grove near Waters station,
Saturday. There was a big gathering,
and everybody seemed to get enjoyment
out of it. The young people left the old
ones in charge of the lunch baskets, while
they explored the romantic recesses of
Walnut or ranged the woods in quest of
the sable, luscious dewberry.
As Neighbor j. F. Smith has gotten
damages against the International and
Great Northern railway for injuries sus-
tanned through being dumped into wood
pile at Duval station, there is now a hope
that some thipg will be done toward i'm
proving the platform which has been in
sufficient and dangerous for many years.
