Chambers Among Horses Does Exist in
Texas-How 1t Is Spread.
Special 10 the Gazette.
AUSTIN, TEX. Nov. 2s.-The agricul-
tural department at Washington sent =,
recently, Veterinary Surgeon William
Folsetler to investigate CHAMBERS among
Texas horses. Governor Ross has copy
Of his report, which is in substance, that
CHAMBERS does exist at Cuero, but it has
been almost exterminated. A little vigor
in that direction will suffice to Danish It
altogether. One obstacle in the way of
banishins it, is that the law makes no
provision for the destruction OF infected
stock.
Writing in reference to the resolutions
OF the San Antonio mass meetin de-
claring that there Is no CHAMBERS, he
says in the four years in which he has
practiced in Texas he has seen good
many cases, and knows that 1t exists TO
considerable extent throughout the
state. 81 have seen over twenty five
cases in the city of Dallas. One stock
man in Grayson county lost some seven
.ty-five head. Contractors on the Fort
Worth and Denver lost thirty-three
nead IN 1881. A party at Bryan LOST
forty four head in 1883. Numbers died
and were killed In the Sherman car
stables in 1887 He mentions a case
in court at Fort Worth in which 1t was
shown that some 800 ont of 400 head died
or were killed Tor glanders. He says
that CHAMBERS exists III ten counties in
Northern Texas. Frequently he had
pronounced certain cases glamders. but
under the loose laws the owners hal
spirited the animals away and traded
them off. Numerous instances are cited.
he SAYS, where CHAMBERS does exist, and
it is useless to deny 1t. DENYING ii only

How to Judge Wool.

An Australian expert gives the follow
finest and softest wool is always on the
shoulders OF the sheep. An expert On
judging sheep always looks at the wool
on the shoulder first. ALWAYS assuming
that the wool to be inspected is really
tne, we first examine the shoulders Us
the part where the finest wool is to be
found. This we take rs a stan lard, and
compare It with the wool from the ribs,
the thigh. the rump aud the shoulder
parts, and the nearer the wool from the
various portions of the animal ap-
prouches the standard the better. First
we scrutiniZe the fiueuess, and If the re-
suit Is satisfactory we pronounce the
fleece in respect to ineness very even.'
Next We scrutinze the length of the
staple, and we find that the wool on the
ribs, thigh and back approxima ties rea-
sonsbly in length to that part of
our standard; we again decide the
fleece, US regards length of
staple, 'true and even. We next sat-
isfy ourselves as to the density of the
tieeces. anu we do this by closing the
hand upon portion Of the rump and
loiu wool, these points being unusually
the thinnest and most faulty. If this
again gives satisfaction. We designate all
the wool seven to density. Now to
summarize these separate examinations:
II the fleece Is nearly OF equal length on
shoulder, rib and back, ani the density
on shoulder and across the Ions, we

:. An Approprlate uYml.

Some time ago a prominent scientist
lectured in one of the leading churches
Of ST. Paul, and, in the course Of an
hours talk, undertook to show the rela-
tion between geology and the Bible. IL
may be that he was not as clear as was
expected, 1t may be that the arguments
of scientist were too deep for tho au-
dience, and still again it is possible
that the warm evening produced a
drowsiness that drugged the senses of
the hearers. At all events, the rela-
tionship sought to be established was
not very sharply outlined to the audi
ence, despite the number Of degrees
the speaker has had tackled to his name
by institutions of learning, and, rs the
learned man ceased his discourse, a
look of doubt as to just what was the
object of the lecture was apparent on
the faces Of all. While thus In o state
Of uncertainty the pastor OF the church
jumped up and announced as the
closing hymn: Nobody Knows but
jesus" The look OF doubt vanished as
bright smiles beamed throughout the
hall, and the hymn was sung with an
emphasis.

Love IN A FLAT
Tho Thin Young Man ami the Shapely
Young Woman.

Young Woman.
If history simply repeats itself one
can not help having faint suspicion
that tho old mound-dwellers are having
somc sort of repetition in the blocks of
modern New York fiat houses, of tho
type which is multiplying 50 rapidly in
the hitherto empty and rock bound
streets of upper New York. Two series
OF boX-iike rooms constitute two flats
for each floor, and thus q block of ten
houses within their five stories shelters
ono hundred families. To watch for a
few minutes daily from an opposite
window tho curious characteristics of
such throng of neighbors grows to be a
fascinating occupation. A Tribune re-
porter has been studying incidents
through open windows lately, and here
arc some of the results.
The young woman on the top floor
opposite seemed extremely agitated.
She hung largo portion of her rather
shapelS form dangerously far out of the
window, until the on-lookers would
have becn alarmed had they not been
convinced that somewhere within the
room pair Of pedal anchors were se-
curcly holding fast. She looking any

parlor of the top flat, beginning with O.
series of torpedo-li!se kisses and tho sud

In about.three minutes the tall, thin
young man and his hostess appeared at
the window. They thoughtfuily pro-
vided against wear and tear on the fur
niture by using only ono chair.
"Awfully glad to see you," he said,
giving the other occupant of the chair
an athletic hug.
You sassy thing" she screamed.
The thin young man disregarded this
remark by administering another large
hug, followed by q series flittle tremor
hugs and ten or dozen pop kisses.

CUBA WANTS TO COME.

The Cubans are naturally FESTIVE
under the eXactionS of Spain, and have
been talking annexation to the United
States with more freedom than seems
consistent with the interests of Spain;
and it is intimated that there will be
trouble if this is not huShed. The reso-
luton introduced in the United States
senate in the early part of the session,
proposing to inquire into the feasibility
of acquiring Cuba, gave the Cubans a
good deal of encouragement. They are
more oppressed by Spain than Ireland
is by England. Burdens are heaped
upon them, and the old country squeezes
them to the bounds of endurance. They
are made to pay the cost of suppress
ing their attempts at revolt. and the
maintenance of the army to keep them
in subsection. This army comprises
81, 900 men, all Spaniards, with hardly a
native Cuban among the officers. The
Cubans and Spanlards have no social in
tercourse, and are not on amicable
terms. But, as much as the Cubans
disrelish Spanish rule, they have no
hopeful way to shake it off without out
side help. There is no sentiment in it.
They are not very largely heightened
class, and have no experience in self
government. With an infusion of
American blood they would in time
make fair material for state, but there
Is little probability that it could become
an adjunct Of this country without in
volving war. Spain gets about S50,0O0,-
600 a year income from the 100000
people of Cuba, and it is probably the
most productive spot on the earth.
Spain, however, endeavors to furnish
the people there home market. 1t
levies a tax of 40 per cent on all import
ations, and even would compel the pro-
ducers to sell at home, as tax of %
per cent is levied on all exports. This
gives the government nearly all the
profits, and the land owners don't cult
vate nearly as much of the soil as they
otherwise would. Most of the COM
merce is with this county, and if there
were any easy way of possessing Cuba it
would easily become popular idea iii
this country.
