CHICAGO, ILL. May 2S.-The end of
the Western rate war is at hand. A
meeting of general passenger agents OF
all the lines will be held tomorrow for
the purpose of fixing the date for the
restoration of rates. The Wisconsin
Central has yielded and is now ready to
become a member of the new association
without any stipulation as to the speed
of trains between Chicago and St. Paul.
II has signed the agreement. This re-
moves the only apparent obstacle to the
establishment OF peace, and there Is no
reason that the ten days notice will NOT
be given tomorrow of an advance in
rates throughout the territory where
they have been cut.

unknown to fame in Texas. In all parts of the
United States he is spoken of for his pietY, cru
dition and eloquence. As leader IN the Epis-
copalian church he is known far and wide. His
services in Fort Worth not long ago created
wide interest.
Mr. Weber addressed the multitudes at the

text, but spoke generally on the Spring Palace,
Texas and The republic. he had been in Texas
before he said, but he never knew what the
state was until he saw the marvellous
Texas Spring Palace He read the inscriptions
around the great central dome, Happy
Homes,'' Free Education" Healthy Gil
mate, - etc., and commented upon them as
pressive Of the ambition of the Texas
people. The greatest of them all,
he said, is the happy home, and he
paid Texas great compliment upon her social
conditions. In conclusion he said: 1.-The Texas
Spring Palace is monument to the lone star
which shines above us, and is an honor to the
intelligence which designed it,
The address, while brief, was rich with beau
tiful thoughts and ford oratorical embelIish-
meuts, Mr.. Weber has q pleasing presence,
which, together with his active and apparent
intelligence, caught his 9udience last night, and
he was loudly applauded when he left the stand.

Honor Among Women.

We are told that "woman's notions OF
property are apt to be hazy," and that
the ideas of honor which prevail among
men are not always binding upon wom-

Cole, in Woman's journal, if our expert
ence upholds this theory. A lady ply

that their bills should be paid than men
are"
How often woman marries man,
herself free from debt, supposing the
man to be the same! A few months
after marriage she learns from various
bills and notes presented that he is deep
ly in debt, and somehow, the debts are
never cleared away; perhaps they accu-
mulate, although her husband has con-
slant employment at good salary. The
thought of debt is repugnant to her; she
will deny herself necessaries in order to
avoid it. In one case wife paid from
her own earnings dentists bill con-
tracted by her husband before their
marriage. These are not fancy sketches.

AN ALIENlsT's VIEWS.
He Thinks That Numerous Species OF In
sanity Are Preventable.

sanity Are Preventable.
DR.. C. b. Burr. superintendent of the
Eastern Michigan Insane Asylum, re-
Gently read paper at sanitary con-
vention, and brought out some facts that,
while well appreciated by physicians,
are not generally known. Every one
must recognize the tact that there must
be prime cause for every thing; and in
sanity, being merely an expression Of
more or less profound perturbation OF
the brain, must have an ultimate cause.
The careful study of the causes of in
sanity and the much that has been
done in the way of dispeling the mys-
teries surrounding insanity, have
shown that mental disease is in q
great measure preventable. In many
cases it is the direct or indirect out
come of conditions affecting the general
nutrition. The general idea as to the
part played by emotion in the produc-
tion of insanity is exaggerated Among
the conditions that impair the general
nutrition and thus contribute to mental
disease are unsanitary surroundings,
exposure to the contagion of communica-
BILE diseases labor in badly ventilated
rooms, intemperance and other things
that cause bodily illness. These are re-
sponsiblo for large percentage of the
cases of insanity. 1t is estimated that
ten per cent. of the cases of insanity
are caused by tuberculosis, and three
per cent. by contagious diseases;
the habitual and incorporate use
of alcohol, opium and other narcotics
causes about nine per cent. of all cases.
The so-called emotional causes, such as
business perpleXities, anxiety, religious
excitement, etc, are responsible for
about twelve per cent, and of these
about one-third of the patients have
their mental troubles ascribed to such
things as loss of sleep, disorders of appe-
tite and of digestion and to other purely
physical causes.
1t is no exaggeration to say that forty
per cent. of the cases of insanity are
preventable; in fact, the percentage of
preventable cases is larger when
we consider the number of cases
duo to ill-advised marriages. Dis
regard of sanitary rules-a very
broad term-is what is filing Cur
asylums for the insane. Unrestricted
marriages among the criminal classes
and the criminally disposed among
persons with what may be called an
overwhelmingly insane hereditary, and
of habitual drunkards, is one way in
which insanity is produced by disregard
of sanitary laws. There are some peo-
pie that should be prohibited, for the
good of society, from propagating the
species. One way-and the proper way
of preventing insanity is to reform
the children by reforming their parents.
