BIG SPRINGS, TEX, June 26.-Geu-
eral Manager John A. Grant met by ap-
pointment Wednesday at Big Springs
committee of the citizens from San An
gelO and Big Springs to confer with them
as to the feasibility of the building of a
branch road from Big Springs to San
Angelo down the Concho valley. Capt.
Grant assured our people that the road
would be built in the near future, aud
would also build branch from Abilene
70 Coleman These two branches will
open up for farmers the finest country in
the West or South, and as the country
south of both Abilene and Big Springs is
already thickly settled, these branches
will be important feeders of the main
line. The Coneho valley commences
within four miles of Big Springs, and
the country for eighty miles to San An
gelo is a natural roadbed. No range of
bills TO cross, but nice, smooth country
ell the way except when coming into Big
Springs. Here several curves will have
to be made. Big Springs is situated IN

An Early Chinese Commas.

Du Halde, in his history of China, says
the Chinese used a compass similar to the
mariners compass as early as 1910 B. C..
Renandot disputes this, however. 1t is
certain, though, that they knew the use of
the magnetic needle, as Marco Polo saw
them on the northern confines of China in
1865; and the Arabian sailors, some centu-
ries before that time, were in the habit in
cloudy weather of floating them ON cork
in water to obtain the north point; and in
1893 Vasco da Cana reported that the Ara
bian ships met with near Mozambique
were provided with compasses. -Exchange

A HERO FROM THE NORTH

The sun was beating down upon the
head of the unprotected earth, as if to
settle once for all the long continued
struggle for supremacy, to crafty a
never ending enmity against his victim,
who for ages had circled round and
round about him in vain effort to tear
away from his fiery embrace. The
defenseless earth smoked and quivered
under his continued blows, its sides
parched and cracked open in agony,
its life blood dried up and refused sus-
tenance to the vegetation that chung
trustingly to it, and then in despair
dropped its head and reached its arms
In sympathy toward its stricken parent
The streams murmured in subdued
tones, the crickets creaked dismal re-
frain. The old feud which had been
waged increasingly day after day, year
after year, seemed about to end; the
earth was conquered, and the remorse-
less sun triumphantly drove shaft after
shaft upon his fallen foe.
1t was battle of giants into the
presence of which no smaller creature
should dare to venture. In this mighty
conflict weak humanity could hope to
take no part. Yet, crawling between
the earth and the sun, one adventurous
mortal was Drawing the elemental fury.
Slowly he toiled over the low, rolling
hills their sides bronzed with expos
ure, unprotected as they were by tree
or shrub. No green thing in sight to
rest the eyes from the glare of dried
earth and grass; nothing to relieve
save the hazy and uncertain outlines of
the distant hills, that danced like a
l-o'-the-wisp to the smoky atmos-
phere. The hot air scorched his nos
trils as he inhaled it, and then came
back from his lungs with increased
heat. His face was dry and burned,
and through the gaping pores no CRATE
full moisture came Yet on he strobe
with steady swinging pace, as if heat
and cold were alike Indifferent to him.
He was indeed well calculated to
withstand the bullets OF the weather or
the fiercer attacks of his fellow men.
More than six feet in height, his broad
shoulders and well prOportiOned figure
made him seem much shorter, and his
easy, graceful movements evidenced a
control of every muscle that could come
only from constant and active exercise.
A long, reddish blonde beard covered
his face, which was bronzed by ex-
posure almost to the color of his beard,
and his long hair fell in waves upon his
shoulders. His whole appearance was
striking, yet the most striking feature
was his piercing blue eyes, which
seemed to look you through and
through and announced plainly that
their owner could not shirk danger or
hardship in whatever form it might
come. His costume was that of a
hunter. and indicated-as did his small

in battle array, quoted the fighting pro-
pensities of the pirates, who, however,
when they saw us manning the windlass
to raise anchor, were disposed to resist.
but concluded not to.
AS we tripped the anchor the captain,
who still remained on board with six or
seven of his crew, asked us if we were not
going to put him on shore, to which l re-
piled no-that we intended taking them
around with us, prisoners.
By this time the tugboat was putting
away ahead of us, when suddenly we heard
a splash, and looking around saw the cap
tain and his crew all swimming for the
shore for dear life. From this out we were
unmOlested, and, after a few hours sail, l
had my hardly earned prize safely secured
at the wharf beyond the reach of the pirate
captain and her piratical crew, with the
queens broad arrow" fastened to her
mast.-Commercial Bulletin.

HUMILITY.

The bird that scars on highest wing
Builds on the ground her lowly nestj
And she that doth most sweetly sing
Sings in the shade, when all things est.
In lark and nightingale we see
What honor hath humility.
When Mary chose the better part,
She meekly sat at Jesus feet:
And Lydia'S gently opened heart
Was made for Gods own temple meet.
Fairest and best adorned is she
Whose clothing is humility.
The saint that wears heavens brightest
crown
In deepest alteration bends;
The weight of glory bows him down
The most when most his soul aScends
Nearest the throne itself must be
The footstool of humility.

As deep in earth are hidden
The jewels that are best,
So the poets dearest treasures
Are hidden in his breast.
And when he fain would tell them
He is harp unstrung;
For his fairest, sweetest fancies
Must ever lie unsung.
Perhaps too vague its meaning,
Perhaps too short its stay,
To catch the subtle beauty
OF the strange ethereal lay;
For howsoever sweetly
The poets voice has rung,
Far better in his bosom
Are songs that lie unsung.
And so are all men poets,
For in each heart a string,
When rightly touched, full sweetly
With melody will ring;
And in each soul, however
Discordant be the tongue,
Are strains Of rarest beauty
That ever lie unsung,
l fancy this soul music,
Unheard of mortal ears,
May be faint, far echo
Waited from other spheres,
Whose melodies harmonious
My soul would dwell among,
For there the notes discor6ant
Are those that are unsung.
