Gould,s Latest Move.

Your correspondent has 1t from an
authentic source that jay Gould has de-
termined to build branch of the Inter-
national and Great Northern from Pales-
tine to Terrell, from which place he will
use the Texas and Pacific to Dallas.
This will give him line shorter by about
twenty-five miles to Galveston than the
Texas Central. It also gives him a
nearly direct route from Dallas to deep
water. In the event of his receiving con-
troll of the Cotton Belt, and that he ia
making an effort to do so is admitted, he
will have added to his Texas property
two very important connecting lines,
which, with the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas, which he also is DESTROYS of once
more securing, Will place him at the head
of the commanding railroad system of
Texas.

EREAT GOOD TO TEXAS.

An Abundance of Blessings In Store for the
Lone Star State in the Next Two Years.
Correspondence Of the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, April I4.-The visit here
of Messrs. Smith and Burbridge Of Fort
Worth was most successful IL every par
tioular and it is safe TO say that Fort
Worth is better known at present by
Westinghouse and others who live
here than before they came. Mr.. Bur-
bridge has secured certain information
on this trip which will be Of vast inter-
est to Fort Worth. The plan to secure
deep water at Galveston will be coupled
with other interests of more than local
Importance. The new railways and
other internal improvements to be made
in Texas during the next two years VIII
be astonishing. In securing deep water
on the gulf the impetus gwen to the
shipping and railway interests through
out the state will be prodigious. Not
only will there be a marine harbor at
Galveston, but Arkansas Pass will also
have been selected for harbor before
congress adjourns. In fact the amount
of legislation accomplished for Texas
thus far this session is most gratifying,
and while the delegation Is solidly Dem
oorat1o, they have worked as unit for
the interests of the state and have i'm
pressed congress with the great neeessi-
ty for providing port on the gulf which
with its attendant interests shall give TO
the Lone Star state a position and an
Importance IN the galaxy of states not
hitherto enjoyed concerning a deep Wa
ter harbor for Texas. Your correspond

NEW YORK, April 1S.-In an interview
last night ex-President Cleveland said of
the Sun story that he was under medical
treatment for corpulency: fThe whole
story is a lie Regarding frequent
personal attacks upon him in the Sun,
Mr.. Cleveland said he did not see them
but every time one appeared a dozen
cranks, more or less, would write TO him
about it. Whenever I receive these
crank's letters, - continued Mr.. Cleve-
land, ''I know that the senile old liar,
Dana, has been at it again.
There is only one thing 1 care
about these attacks. It seems that Dana
does not confine his warfare to men. 1t
is bad enough for him to print his lying
statements about myself, but it Is inf
n1tely more cowardly and dastardly for
him to include my wife in his attacks.

The RcbelliOus Patriarch.
From the New York Herald.

from IDS New lOEh 1cEtlu
The Armenian Patriarch of Constan
tinople. Khoren Aschikian, within the
past few weeks has become a figure in
the eyes of the world by reason of the
news Of the change in his attitude to-
ward the Sultan of Turkey.
There are two Patriarchs of this
church, one in Constantinople and one
in Jerusalem. The Patriarch Aschikian
until lately was repressed by the in
huence of Turkish officers, who are
Armenians, and was obliged to act
against his convictions and pray and
speak in praise of the Sultan. The up
rising of the Armenians in riot seems to
have emancipated their Patriarch
from the duress of Turkish influence,
as he has been to the Sultan's palace
and demanded for the Armenian popu
lace relief from further Turkish persecu
tons Unless this demand shall be
granted he threatens not only to resign
his ecclesiastical office, but to close all
the Armenian churches, which step, it
is thought, would be the signal for q
general uprising of the populace
against Turkish domination in Ar
menia.
In the Armenian Church the patri
archs are bishops, but there are many
other bishops. Next to that is the
order of monks, one division of whom
are unmarried and secluded from the
people and especially devoted to lives
of prayer, although they occasionally
preach. Besides these orders there isa
class Of married clergymen who live
among the people, act as elders in the
churches, and conduct the daily services
and the confessional at stated times.
The Armenians hold to the inspiration
of the Old and New Testaments, but
give more reverence to the four Cos
pels, always rising when they are read,
but listening to the other Scriptures
while seated.
They claim not only that theirs is the
oldest of peoples occupying the proba
bic site of the Garden of Eden and the
spot where the Ark landed, but that
their religion is the nearest in spirit
and form to that of the earliest Chris
tians.

A Mistaken Whale.

4 letter from Adelaide, Australia, to
the Pail Mall Gazette, says that July II,
while Capt. Hepworth, +. n. r., of the
steamship Port Adelaide, was taking his
sights, he noticed long sperm whale
alongside. so close that his spouting
wetted the deck. The creature had
evidently lost his school," and mis-
taken the ship for one of its own
species. He remained with us for four
days and nights, and travelled 500 nauti-
cal or ops statute miles without a rest,
and, as far as one could gather, without
food. He was never more than seventy
yards away, and for the most part close
against the ship, under her quarter,
where the draught made swimming easy
for him. The length of the animal was
about fortyseven feet. The first day
he was very lively, diving frequently
beneath the ships bottom, on one occa-
sion scratching himself severely. After
that he kept close alongside like tired
Newfoundland dog.
