THE work in progress at Sabine
Pass is accomplishing good results,
but not such as are reported by the
Houston Post which places the depth
at eighteen feet. The report of the
board of engineers who sounded the
depth last week gives ll:9 feet as the
depth. The Southeast Texas Journal
claims that this is not sufficient, and
says that nine-tenths of foot more
than this was shown along the west
ern side of the channel. The bar pilot
says that he could easily bring YES
sci drawing thirteen feet of water
over the bar, which is soft silt con-
tanning no sand. 1t is expected that
the present appropriation will give a
depth of sixteen feet. Eastern Texas
is sanguine over the outlook and is
prophecying the first deep water har-
Dor on the coast at Sabine Pass.

The Galveston News scents a
scene in the United States senate,
should Halstead's name ever again
come before that body. Concerning
this possibility the News says:
Harrison can give Halstead a nice
place and yet not offend the senate.
The mission to Russia is vacant. Per-
haps the senate refused to confirm
Halstead as minister to Germany be-
cause it did not consider him proper
man for the place. But this does not
necessarily carry with it the idea
that Halstead is not the proper man
for any place. In fact the senate
might believe him the very man to
represent this country in Russia.
There is a universal wish among DEM
ocrats that Harrison may take this
view of it, Such view might lead to
some fun for the democrats"
The democrats can have all the fun
they want over the Investigations be-
ing made in sope of the departments
at Washington as to how business
has been conducted during the past
four years. The Cincinnati journals
affirm concerning Investigations
pending in the interior and postal de.
partments that more crookedness has
already been unearthed than was
found by the democrats during the
four years they were overhauling a
republican record running through an
uninterrupted control of government
for over twenty-five years.

The Mountain Sphinx.

In Surrey County, N. c., there is re-
markable natural curiosity in the shape
Of a mountain resembling the famous
sphinx of Egypt in all its details. It
lays east of tho Blue Ridge Mountains,
on the Piedmont plains, like a gigantic
lion; Its body at right angle to the ridge
and with head roared aloft as IL in the
act of rising. Tho head is of solid rock,
several hundred feet in height. The
shoulders and breast are finely proper
toned. and at the distance Of few
miles It looks like thing of life and
intelligence. 1t rises about 1900 feet

Croton Bugs Eat a Cow.

According to the New York sun, a
new danger confronts amateur pho
Biography. The all-peryading Croton bug
has taken to the gelatine of the dry
plate. An amateur developed some
cherished negatives yesterday and set
them up on the Kitchen washtub to dry
over night. In the morning he found
the gelatine eaten off all around the
edge of the plates in an irregular band
as wide as the average Croton bug is
long. The bugs had sampled the new
dish, and apparently not liking the first
taste of 1t had turned tail without walk
ing further into the landscape. AS it
was, they had devoured the hinder part
OF jersey cow, an old farm fence, part
OF o forest, two stacks Of corn, half the
leg OF the hired man and group of chill

How Faithful Bombera Knocked q Largo
Stone TO Pieces.
A writer I'm Murray's Magazine eulo-
gizes the intelligence and amiability of
the elephant, which. he says, has q
heart, though the way to that organ may
be through the stomach, and its affec-
ton dependent on offerings of oranges,
pineapple rinds and other refuse of fruit.
An elephant employed in Ceylon in
building large stone dam to close up a
river and thus form lake was one of
the sights of tho place.
He first of all drew from the quarry
the huge stone that was to be used; he
then undid tho chain by which he had
drawn it. He next proceeded to roll it
with his forehead along the narrow
stone wall, or embankment, until he had
fitted it exactly into its place.
On the one side of this wall was a
precipice, on tho other deep lake. AS
the stone was pushed by his forehead it
would at one time incline to the lake,
at another over the precipice, but he
Immediately made it straight again with
his foot He was doing the work of ten
men, and with tho accuracy of skilled
mason. s..
One day when he was at work a by
stander asked If he would take up a
large sledge-hammer lying on the
ground and break an enormous rock
close to it. The officer in charge of the
work said this was asking too much, but
the Mahout who heard the conversation
replied, gravely:
"Bombera can and will do every thing
he is asked" He then said something
to the elephant, who took up the sledgo
as If it were feather and knocked the
stone to pieces.
"Now take your pipe and smoke it,"
said the Mahout, upon which the animal
stuck the sledge in his mouth and
walked OF with it.
Another elephant also employed in
moving stones performed, of his own ac-
cord, most Intelligent act He was
carrying o large and heavy stone down
steep dec2ivity, and, as the chain was
somewhat long, the stone struck repeat
edly against his knees. He stopped,
made what the sailors call blight of the
chain, and, having thus shortened it,
carried the stone to it's destination with
out further discomfort.

profession, aud as legislator, he gained an
enviabie reputation, not alone for his brill
liant talents and sound judgment, but also on

bred of them running out of New York
City have been so equipped. The gas
is compressed in cylinder under each
car, and one filling of a cylinder will
last the round trip between New York

lighted with gas are as light as a parlor,
