THE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 49, $780,

Aug. 1l-Doctor promises to embalm my
body and deliver it 70 wife.
Aug. l2-Have thrown up everything.
Heart Is in throat Expect 70 choke before
night
Aug. 13-Steward too busy to attend TO
me. Got him to unlock grip and get out
clean shirt. Paid him s. TO lay me out when
l am gone. Bid him final farewell Oh,
my poor wife,
Aug. 14-Still alive, but very weak. Took
little Cruel Fog again. Heard cook say
We were on the banks. II ever / get on a
bank again that settles it. No more sea for
me. Lay In bed all day nibbling at red
herring. Get up and put shirt in grip again.
Aug. 15-Better this morning. Took a
nip of whisky and went on deck. Beautiful
morning. How majestic the ocean, With
what magnificent sweep the gallant ship
dashes through the billowsl Music and
mirth forward, aft and amidsnips. How
jolly TO be a sailor boy and proudly plow
the main. Feel awful hungry. Venture to
speak to red-headed officer again Give him
cigar. Asks me into bis room. He takes
a swlg of whisky with me. Bully fellow,
after all. Swears spendidly every other
word. Says sailors don't know any other
language. Doesn't mean anything anyhow.
Respects religion and churches. Wife is
church member. Just the highest little lass
you ever saw. "Hyes like sloes, and ed
like one of Hangelo's hangels."
Aug. 15-Expect to see land in the morn
ing. Can't understand why people make
such fuss about sessickness. Thought of
writing story while at sea, but too much
fun for that. Sea is not a good place for
literary work. Good place TO study human
nature. Individual weaknesses develop.
Just heard that barometer was sinking.
What an experience bang-up storm would
be.
Aug. 16-Shall never forget last night.
Terrific hurricane sent off American coast
by a New York newspaper. Said to be
bound for England. VIII shake up the
British. Lost two lifeboats during night
and did not stop to pick them up. Red
headed officer peeped into my room and says:
MY hyes, this is a tuff 'un, mister.n
Lightning played around ship all night.
Wondered why lightning couldn't go to
work and not spend all its time playing.
Stood on head and feet alternately every
minute for six hours. Not quite sure of 10
cation of brains yet. Might be amidship
according to activity in that latitude. Clear
sky this morning. All o. K. What's thatl
Land ahead. Welcome, welcome. Folks
rushing on deck. Here goes.

conference has decided and he has yielded
TO their Judgment that there was some ele-
ment of wrong in his having traficked in
horsefiesh and run horse race. and still
the Rev. MIR. Arney, according 10 the latest
reports. is the owner OF those three horses.
The love which he admits nature gave him
for the horse very likely has not been driven
from his breast by any conference reSolu-
lions Of denunciation. nor is IL likely that
the minister's promise that he won't race
any more carries with it promise that he
will forget all about horses and that he will
think no more of them. He declared
that he couldn't afford to keep the
horses, and so it is probable that
be will feel compelled 10 sell them Now
if he should sell them at the advanced figure
which the celebrated race has placed upon
them, he would be making an actual profit
out Of the race, in addition TO the profit
which he made before he was called to the
conference. IL is a delicate question
whether IL would be wrong for Mr.. Arney
TO avail himself Of the opportunity to make
an extra thousand dollars under these con-
ditIons. There are those here who say that
the case very much resembles that of
little boy whose mother told him he couldn't
have any more jam. The youngster went
70 the closet and got some for himself. Be-
fore he had a chance to taste its joys his
mother found him out. He said be was
very sorry, and he would never, never do
1t again. Then he went away and ate the
Jam. The question now is whether the
Rev. DIR. Arney will eat his jam.

This Dominic is a Trifle Narrow

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 20.-Rev. William
Teller, pastor of the MorresviIle Methodist
church, some days ago demanded that G.
w. Bass, leading druggist, resign as an
official member of the church, insisting that
a man who sold in any form liquor should
hold no church Office. More recently Mr..
Teller has been going among the druggists,
butchers, bakers, milkmen, merchants and
other classes of business men who sell goods
on Sunday also, to persons who rent build
ings to persons who do business on Sunday,
and returning whatever money they may
have contributed in support Of his ministry
His congregation believe he is carrying his
opposition to Sunday dissertation to ex.
tremes, and it is likely to result in a sever
ance of pastoral relations.

a Peanut Famine Impending.
From e Ttnterstate Groce


The festive peanut is so very scarce and
high at the present time that the average
street vender keeps his stock in a safe with
his money. The total visible supply in
the United States is under $4,000 bags, OF
which quantity about 5000 are held by st.
Louis firms When the fact is taken into
consideration that the average consumption
for the United States is about 600, 600 bags
per annum, it will be readily understood
that the shortage is quite serious and that
the prices are justified. The prospects for
the new crop are for very heavy yield.
The new crop is due after Oct. 20, and is
usually not marketable until Jan. l, from
the fact that the nuts are not sufficiently
cured. Owing, however, to the short market
this year the new crop will probably go
into immediate consumption, though at a
loss of about Is per cent. in roasting as
against for old goods. There are no nuts
to be had in the producing district, and
dealers are not buying from each other. st.
Louis is now supplying Cincinnati, Peters

route from Abilene to the Indian Terri

that there had been a considerable move
ment Of cattle from the Nation during
the summer, and that the shipments
would grow larger during next month.

from Texas, though, - he said, "except
in the Panhandle. 1 am of the opinion

run a great many cattle 10 market; but
in West Texas, along the line of the

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2l.-The secretary
of agriculture has issued regulations
governing the inspection of salted pork
or bacon provided for in the recent meat

that whenever any foreign country re-
QuIres the inspection OF sailed pork or

Looks for Better Prices.

Robert Kleberg of Corpus Christi, and
manager of the well-known King ranch in
that part Of the state, was in Washington
City recently and was interviewed by q
Post reporter. During the interview,
speaking of the property under his man
agement Mr.. Klebera said:
"we have between $50 200 and 700,-
600 acres altogether. lying in Nueces
and Webb counties. and 1 don't know
exactly how many cattle, but 100, 600
head would not be far out of the way.
Capt. King came from the state of New
York to Texas in 1858, and was the first
permanent settler between the Nueces
river and the Rio Grande. The Indians
were thick in that region in those days,
and it took man of nerve to hold his
own. We DON Z drive any of our cattle
overland now, but sell to parties who ship
from the ranch by rail. Since the boom of
's2 the bottom has dropped out of the
cattle business, but there is q somew hat
better demand Of late, and 1 look for
upward prices ere long.

Willing to Wait.

Mr.. T. j. Phillips of McAllister, one
of the leading cattlemen of that portion
of the territory, was in the city yester-
day. He gives good account OF the
condition of cattle in the nation, but
says the markets at present are too much
depressed for him to risk his cattle in
them.
81 shipped FIVE loads of fine fat half
breed Durham steers that averaged 1927
pounds recently, three carloads to st.
Louis and two carloads to Kansas City.
The cattle 1 shipped to St. Louis brought
me only S2.55 and those shipped to
Kansas City only So per 100 pounds.
These prices, you see, are fearlully low
too low for me to sell any more of my
cattle for; therefore 1 will hold what
have left until next spring, when l hope
to see better prices for such cattle as l
have -

on his arrival found that great exoite-
ment existed over some cases of Texas
fever. His cattle were placed in quar-
antine and held for forty days, in conse-
quence of which he was unable to fill his
contract by delivering them to the pur-
chasers. In the meantime, before the
cattle were released from quarantine the
market dropped, and he concluded to
feed for the winter market, and all the
cattle shipped by him are accordingly
being fed on his Kansas farm. He has
all faith in a big rise in the market

Tribune tomorrow will have an
interview with Lieut.. Francis
Preston Fremont, son of the

also looks for the restoration of seven
