The Legal Phase of the Question

A certain female woman, no longer basking
in single blessedness because upon q certain
occasion she had been married to man, once
upon aJtime called upon certain unsophis-
ticatediaud uninitiated pawnbroker and rep
resented that her finances were at an exceed
ing low ebb; in fact, it afterwards trans
pired they did not ebb at all, and represented
TO her uncle that of the whole family 1t was
plain to be seen that Notwithstanding the
many drawbacks and other incidents con-
nected with her financial condition
prior to the period at which she had
first entered the domain occupied
heritance under the wise and useful home
stead law of Texas, she had on many and
numerous occasions endeavored to have a
change made in the pompous ponderosity of
the mayor, and falling IN this she clearly
showed the court that the man who had
sworn out the affidavit (her husband) had &C
customed himself to practice pestiyerous pro-
family and bombast, and had on other occa-
sions shown real lack of spiritualized ideal
ity to the extent of going to bed without re-
moving his boots and spurs, against which
the petitioner has sued out a warrant for de-
famation of character and was now
consulting Uncle Emerson with q
view to raise money wherewith to
forestall the District Attorney and
such other officers of the court as might be in
PENDANT She then bought a fine pair of soil
taire diamond earrings, a gold watch, a
Waterbury clock from Uncle Jess, and after
ward a secondhand sewing machine and left
for home, fully determined that in future
whenever she got into tight place she would
go straight to Uncle Jesse for advice and
financial tonic.

THE United States is very greatly
in need of q merchant marine which
will carry the national flag and plant
American trade in all markets legit-
imately her own. This matter has
been neglected by congress session
after session until the markets of
South America are occupied by Hol-
land, Germany, England, France and
Belgium when we should have the
strongest foothold there. Before we
can occupy our rightful position in
that market, which is nearest us and
for many reasons peculiarly our own,
we must make good our claims
against an established commerce and
the absorption of valuable trade by
our European rivals. No more i'm.
portant matter claims the attention
of congress this session than this
matter Of fostering commerce with
the South and Central Americas. The
building up of our own merchant
marine is indispensable to this end,
and it is high time that the work
neglected now for nearly half a Gen.
fury should be vigorously under
taken. American ships to carry
American goods, and American ships
TO carry American mails, and lib
eral subsidy by congress for this pur-
pose is the demand of the present.

THE San Antonio and Arkansas Pass
road has done a great work for this
city and Southwest Texas. 1t had
more grit than judgement in pushing
its extensions, however, and is now
placed where iU cannot take hold Of
that Llano extension. Our citizens
should put this road through, and
they will find it as great a bonanza
as the S. A. P. has been.

WHEN Southwest Texas comes
into her just inheritance of develop

utilized, we will not read so often OF

Les Angeles, CAL, doomed herself
fer all that she was worth four years
ago and she has today 5000 less pop
ulation than she had in 1885. Devel-
opment of her resources, the foster
ing of her infant industries, the Great
ion of new ones, the extension of her
lines of railway communication, the
radical changing of her city admins
tration from political body to a
business one, the settlement of farm
ing lands adjacent and tributary to
the city, these are the things that
will build San Antonio up.
San Antonio should rally round
the colors and pledge such support to
the fair enterprise as will insure its
success. The old managers and
officers of the San Antonio fair and
exposition have stepped down and
out because the city would not come
up and put tie enterprise on its feet
a. the citizens of Dallas have done in
the case Of the State fair. Let thot 9
who have held aloof, claiming lack Of
confidence in the management .ccme
to the front now and take hold, CT
they will stand convicted of refusing
aid under false pretences. San An
tonic had far better sacrifice $50, 900 a
war than LET that fair 90 by defau &.
If she does not believe it now, she
will after a season or two and no fair
has gone glimmeringly down the cor.
rido-s of time.

Thrss Boys Caught In the Debris and
Slowly Koastsd-A Fourth Victim
Probably Fatally Woandsa.

EVANSVILLE, Ind, March e.-Yester
day afternoon residents OF the lower
portion Of the city were thrown into
state Of excitement by terrific explo-
sion, which shook the houses in that To-.
cality. A few minutes later an alarm
OF hre was turned in, which proved to
have beeH caused at the Armstrong
Furniture Compsny's factory result
Ing from an explosion In the dust or
shaving room. The room had been
closed for an hour, and It Is sup
posed that the air became dense, and
gas was generated by the fumes Of .
lantern left there BY boys who are en-
ployed in carrying shavings into the
furnace room. The employees had con-
cluded their dinners, after which three
Of tho boys, Mike Weber and VIII
Sachs (white), and Will Cheatham
(colored), went into the shaving room,
and while there the explosion occurred.
Immediately after the disaster the
flames shot up from the shaw
Ing room. The alarm was at
once turned in and Chas.
Shelby, colored fireman, rushed to the
portion Of the building in which the
fire broke out. just as he reached the
doorway the wall fell, peeling the skin
from the crown Of his head to the neck
entirely of, breaking both legs and in
ficting internal injuries. At first 1t was
thought that Shelby was the only one
injured as no one knew Of the boys being
In the building at the time Of the &C.
cident. As soon as the flames were got
under control, however, Cheatham and
Sachs wore found to be missing, and a
careful search by the fremen discovered
tho bodies Of the three boys. The build.
ing, which was small brick structure
adjoining the factory, was a total wreck.
The walls and roof were one mass OF
debris The damage to the building is
estimated ut 81, 900, which was fully in.
Sured,
