AGRICULTURAL NOTES.

Texas is now engaged in raising
Hogg instead of Cain.
The Hogg Is a much smarter animal
than the average democrat gives him
credit for.
The Hogg understands the farmer
and ye hay-seed rejoices in the fat
ness thereof.
The Express calls the modern DEM
ocratio champion James" instead of
Jeems Hogg.
In the meanwhile Hogg wiggIes
the attention of the railroad vampires.
This is funny world and the peo-
pie of Texas are good-natured set.
Having tried in vain to Calhanize
the people the Democratic party of
Texas,is now running after the Hogg,
who is teaching them a lesson in Gem
traliZation.
The republican party hail Jeems
Hogg as sort of John the Baptist,
preaching in the democratic wilder
ness. He preacheth q new doctrine
to that great party of hyprocrits and
sinners.
Sdpp. Is ulu lOb tdk0 q
front seat on the Hogg platform for
nothing.
How would the Captain look in the
Hogg team as of-ox?
The old democratic bosses are even
talking of q free fight, knock down
and drag out when Hogg tries to
capture the convention. The joke is
that there will not be enough left of
the old set to laugh at.
Hogg has o fashion Of holding his
hand behind his back when making
his anti-railroad speech.
The hay-seeds think this is one OF
his dignified pastures.
They keep their mouths wide open
to swallow all that he las to say
about the billions and the billions of
money they are being robbed out of.
Six of the escaping convicts from
Rush penitentiary, are ambGshed
near Grapeland and one shot. The
man who ambushed them was also
shot.

ance men in convention out Of q total

bal country, the land Of the gorilla. |
here heard some startling stories
about this man-ape. but could not at
first get any of the natives to 90 with
me to hunt the gorilla. At last | gave
three cannbals as many beads as they
could carry TO 60 with me. On the
night before we started they danced
around the idos and bled their hands
in about twenty places and rubbed the
blood over their hearts. They then
scraped the bones of their ancestors
and swallowed the scrapngS, under
the belief that it would get into their
blood and make them brave. We then
went into the forest The silence was

days. On the third day | was about

and there was no sound. Suddenly

Bacteria Everywhere.

The greater majority of these micro
scopic plants are what the botauists
call bacteria, the Smallest form of
vegetable life. SO small are they that
it would take. in some cases, as many
rs ID, 600 of them arranged in a row to
extend one inch. They have different
forms, some being round, some oval.
some rod-shaped, while others are
much the shape OF 4 corkscrew. In
all eases they are so small that one
needs powerful microscope to exam
inc them. and in no case can we per-
ceive them singly with the naked eve
When countless millions of them are
grouped together in a mass or colony
we can see them about as we are able
to see an approaching army of which
we are totally unable to distinguish a
single soldier | have said that these
bacteria move about; and this is true
of most of them, although there are
some which do not appear to move at
all, but remain fixed wherever they
find a good feeding place. Those that
have motion behave in a very peculiar
manner; some wobble about in one
place without moving forward in the
least; others dart hither and thither,
back and forth, at an apparently furi-
Gus rate, rocking ani twirling about,
and turning a hundred somersaults as
they move along. Bacteria multiply
very rapidly, and they do this in IA
very curious way.
A single one breaks itself in two;
then each half grows very rapidly un-
til it becomes rs large as the original.
Then these in turn divide up again
and SO on. until from a single one we
have many thousands in very short
time. To give you the figures. such as
they are, a single one can multiply at
so enormous rate that in forty-eight
hours it can produce something like
2S0, 900, 900, 600 of its species. Great
consequences follow this enormous in
crease of bacteria. for while one, SO
small of itself, can do but little harm
the army resulting from such rapid
multiplication makes it possible for
them to accomplish vast amount of
damage. Louis Republic.

GRATING IN VOLkPUk.
Impressions of Correspondent Who
Heard Col Sprague's Address.

The volapuk convention opened with
an address in the new language by the
president of tie association, Colonel
Charles f. Sprague, of New York says
the Sprinotiel Republican. His listen
ers doubtless understood part of his re-
marks, for be was applauded two or
three times, but to the majority of the
people it was evident that understand
ing came only with difficulty. Now.
how did the new invention sound?
Well, there was great predominance
of the European and Cor ee) and of
the long 0. In every sentence each
one of these vowels seemed to outnum-
Der all the others put together. Con-
sonants were obscure as Col. Sprague
spoke them. and it was noticeable
that the sibillants was very frequent.
The letter also seemed to be hard
worked member of the volapuk alpha
bet.
The pronunciation follows the French
in having no accent. That is, Colonel
Sprague talked with just about the
same stress on each syllable. and | paid
close attention to this feature of the
flow of sound after noticing it. Lack
ing accent. volapuk lacks the force
which is SO strong characteristic of
English, and it also shows sadly the
need of the virile consonants, which are
the life of German.
Perhaps nothing better could be ex-
pected of an invented tongue, for the
English and German are the result of
genius and struggle, of wars and dis
putes of orations and poems, of busi-
ness sharpness and philosophical con-
temptation. They are alive. Volapuk
is~wooden and dead. That is the i'm
preston made upon me by hearing
Colonel Spragues address in his ver-
nacular-no, not his nor anybody's.
1t was Il convention of English speak
ing people using neither their own
vernacular nor that of any other people
under heaven. 1t was just hashed up
Choctaw.
Colonel Sprague talked seriously, but
his word-making had its humorous
aspect. He was wonderfully proficient,
and is to be praised highly for his abili-
ty to talk in that which has no dialect
and no everyday vocabulary, and so is
above the usual perils to translators.
A delegate from the floor said some
thing in volapuk in labored way and
soon struck into English. 1t was as if
he had been stumbling across lots in Il
bog meadow and had come out into the
travelled road again. He certainly
seemed much relieved and got along
much easier in English.

PINhOu NE
By night the storm had abated, but

pickeu ~.
By night the storm had abated, but
there was as yet no sign of the ship.
We were both hungry and thirsty;
but every drop of fresh water. and all
the salt meat and biscuit, usually car
ried in whale boats, had been spilled
out by the capsizing of the light craft.
We did not sleep wink that night.
La the morning still no sign of sail.
Another day passed. and now our
parched tongues Glove to the roof OF
our mouths.
On the next day we were nearly
driven mad for want of water. Hin
dok's wild eyes rolled in his head, and
several times | saw him fasten them
on me with a sort OF hungry look, and
| know the vulture-like feeling that
animated his breast.
Another day-still no sail!
At midnight of the next day, which
had passed rs the others. lay weak
and helpless in the bottom of the boat,
where saw a pair of eyeballs flashing
into my face.
1t was Hindok, who now caught me
by the throat, his uplifted sheath-knife
cleaning.
VainlyI | struggled. The point of
the knife pricked my flesh. when the
fellow suddenly released me.
The sound of creaking yards and
blocks was heard right ahead
1t proved TO be our ship. which soon
picked us up.
We found the captain and all hands
safe aboard and told our story.
As soon as we had partaken of re-
freshments the captain shook hands
with Hindok and complimented him
for SO pluckiiy holding on to the.whale.
As to the men, they gave three
cheers and carried US into the fore
castle on their shoulders to listen
again to our story of that wild ride on
the capsized boat.-N. Y World
