class Of boys and girls on animals-not
on the animals of the woods and fields,
not on the animals before them, for there
were none, but on the edentates of South
America. An especial point was to find
out whether it is the nine-banded arma-
dillo (novemeinctus) or the three-banded
armadillo (trieinotus) which does not dig
hole in the ground for its nest. The
book, written by man who did not know
an armadillo from mud-turtle, gives
this piece of information. 1t was in the
lesson, and the students must get it.
And on this and like subjects these boys
and girls were wasting their precious
time-precious because, if they do not
learn to sbserve in their youth, they will
never learn, and the horizon of their
lives will be always narrower and darker
than it should have been. Already the
work of that day is blank. They have
forgotten the nine banded armadillo and
the three-baDded, and so has their
teacher, and so have I. All that remains
with them is mild hatred OF the arma-
dillO and of the edentates in general,
and feeling of relief at being no longer
under their baleful influence. But with
this usually goes the determination
never TO study zoology again. And
when these students later come to the
college they know no more of science and
its methods than they did when at the
age of one year they first cried for the

SPRING PALACE MEETING.

Lufkin Leader: On last Saturday

number of others met at the

in May.
j. J. Fairchild was elected chairman.
A committee was appointed to secure
the exhibit and raise finances.
1t was resolved that the mill men of
Angelina county be requested TO furnish
the committee with such specimens of
lumber as they may have suitable for
exhibit.
Resolved, 2, that the various COM
mittees be requested to report to the re-
ceiving committee by the 18th of April.
On motion, j. J. Fairchild was unani-
mously elected to attend the Palace and
call attention to the exhibit of Angelina
county.
In making an exhibit of large timber
the plan agreed upon was to send block
of each tree. The following is partial
list of the timber indigenous to An
gelins county: White oak, post

1t Is hoped that everyone who feels an
interest will assist the committees in the
several localities. There will be some
expense attached TO putting the exhibit
in proper shape, and we hope every COM
mittee will be able TO raise something for
this purpose and paying the expenses of
our agent III calling attention to same.
Let everyone try TO do his fun share in
this matter, and Angelina will receive q
rich reward for her trouble.

will be made public. Enough has been
learned, however, in advance of the re-
port being published, to warrant the
statement that there ia hardly doubt
that the two plants at Victoria aud CO.
lumbus will soon be in operation, and
that there will be another one in opera
ton in North Texas-at some point not
yet decided on. The probabilities are
strong that it will be at Fort Worth,
provided the proper steps are taken by
our people, and if this city should be So
fortunate as to secure it, it will be a
prize of inestimable value. Houston
and Galveston both want the third plant +,
and will do much to get it, but the
eattlemen favor Fort Worth, if Fort
Worth will only favor them.

TIE CYCLONES RoRK.

The distressing news from those
cities that have been the playground of
destructive winds, and from sections
where the merciless waters have
wrought their devastating work, must
quicken substantial sympathy in the
heart of everyone not dead to the wall
Of the homeless and the bereaved. The
call is too piteous and piaintive, too
urgent and real to be unheeded, and
1t is reasonable to expect that it will
meet ready response from those whose
homes are still unframed, whose fam
lilies are not disbanded by death in its
most dreaded form, and who, possessed
of the comforts of life, ought to be
willing to share their abundance with
those whose case is so heart-rendlng.
The people Of the flooded districts
and those of the wind-swept cities have a
right to expect help. This is especially
so in Fort Worth, whose people are so
cosmopolitan, and many of whom hare
within the last few years severed home

for themselves new homes. The cry of
the widow, the call of the homeless, the
tiny stretched out hands of helpless
orphans, all appeal to the citizens of
Fort Worth with a burning eloquence
that needs no set phrases Of word plead
ing. This call Is borne to the ear by
every coming report and it remains for
the citizens of Fort Worth to demon
strate that, amid the din and march OF
progress, they do not pass on the other
side, but, bearing in mind the needs of
fellow-men, they will stop and minister
ing the principle incorporated in ell right
teaching of caring for one another.

rhe Natural Inequallsr of r1en.

Professor Huxley in Popular Science Monthly.
Thus men are certainly not born free
and equal in natural qualities; when
they are born the predioates ''free'' and
''equal'' in the political sense are not
applicable to them: aud as they develop,
year by year, the differences in the po-
litical potentialities with which they
really are born become more and more
obviously converted into actual differ
snces-the inequality of political faculty
shows itself TO be q necessary consequence
of the inequality of natural faculty. 1t
Is probably true that the earliest men
we're nomads. But among a body of
naked, wandering sasages, though there
may be no verbally recognized distino-
tIons of rank or Office, superior strength
and cunning confer authority of a more
valid kind than secured by acts of par
lament; there may be no property in
things, but the witiess man will be pow
erty-stricken in ideas, the clever man
will be capitalist in that same com-
modify, which in the long run buys all
other commodities; one will miss oppor-
tunities, the others will make them /;
and, proclaim human equality as loudly
as you like, Witlsss will serve his
brother. So long as men are men and
society is society, human equality will be
a dream; and the assumption that it does
exist ia as untrue in fact as it sets the
mark OF impracticability on every theory
of what ought to be which starts from 1t !.

prsx,ean Silver Lead Ores.

| Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, March 2S.-Ths PENN
sylvania lead company of Pittsburg,
owning the largest smelling works in
Utah at Sandy Station, twelve miles
south of Salt Lake City, has addressed q
| letter to the ways and means committee
asking that Mexican silver lead ores be
admitted free of duty. In support Of its
position on this matter, the company
says;
f'These ores are at our door, and TO
shut them out and permit our works TO
lie idle does seem like bad business poll
cy, to say nothing of craftsmanship. The
result of such action can only be fore
ing of our manufacturers to import % 900
to 40 900 tons OF foreign made pig lead
at materially higher price than they
are now paying.
In 1889 there was received from Mexi-
can lead and silver ores lead sufficient 10
produce % 900 tons of pig lead. This
was consumed and our stocks also re-
dueed 10 900 tons. With these ores vir-
tually taken from US you can readily
perceive what our position would be.
This whole movement in the West has
beenEhzought about by q few men who
own what Is technically known as lead
ore mines. For two years past they have
forced buyers to pay a price largely in
excess of what the product would realize
and the smelter has been forced TO re-
duce his price to the miner Of silver ores
in order to protect himself from loss.
The result Is that a very few miners are
enriched by the losses of large number.
AS ann istance: A prominent Colorado
miner has within the past three weeks
sold the product OF his Leadville mine at
a price which entails loss to the smelter
OF over Sc per ton OF ore. This contract
is for $50 tons per day for several months.
Now the purchaser is forced to reduce
his price on his silver ore purchased from
probably 100 different parties; conse-
quently the large number suffer unjustly.
It is necessary to have a certain guam
sity of lead in the mixture; otherwise the
great bulk OF Western silver ore cannot
be reduced. have always been pro-
tectionist from principle, but when see
such wrongs perpetrated l feel that the
first principles of protection are being vio-
lated; and that instead OF it being used
as protection, it becomes a means o.
crushing out the large number OF Ameri-
can producers; and il then becomes our
duty to protect the small producer and
place him in position where he may be
free. from oppression.
