To Tax Dealers in Options.

WASHINGTON, March 0.-ReDresenta-
tive Butterworth to-day appeared before
the house committee on agriculture in
support of his bill levying tax on deal
ers in options, and traders in puts ana
calls. He gave an accurate description
of their methods of doing business and
spoke of the necessity of leaving unim-
paired as far as possible the operation Of
the laws of supply and demand,
in order to secure health
fuI condition of trade and commerce.
He explained the effects which
the operations in the grain pit at
Chicago and other cities had upon legiti-
mate traffic in farm staples. He eX-
planned that sellers had the advantage in
the Dit, and prices were beaten down as
a result of the trade in what Is known rs
wind wheat and other staples, these
transactions having no existence except
in name. He said there was more wind
wheat sold in the pit at Chicago each
wear than was produced in the whole
world. OF course the market value OF
the article is regulated by the laws
of supply and demand, and
these transactions paralyZed legitimate
trade. Butterworth proposed to the COM
mittee to so amend the bill as to
leave untouched legitimate transactions,
while those that are merely gambling
speoulators would be left subject TO law.
This he said would be difficult matter,
but he held that the injury which re-
suited from this unrestricted gambling
was SO great as to justify the passage of
a law which might, to limited extent,
inconvenience legitimate transactions.

Henderson OF Iowa and a number OF
other members of the house have signi-

cultural interests advocated its passage,

The Texas Spring Palace is an original
conception for presenting to the public
the products and resources Of the state.
1t is not fair, in any sense Of the term,
but "Karporama "a picture of the
fruits of the soil, the orchard, the gar
den, the farm, the forest, the mines,
the streams-each wrought into form
and shape with great ingenuity and ar
tistic skill. The visitor who attends the
Palace to see crazy quilts, lace handker-
chiefs, embroidery, threshing machines,
clothes wringers, ETC., etc, will find
these articles conspicuous only by their
absence. The grains Of the country he
will find represented by beautiful pic
ture of the goddess of the forest, con-
structed of cereals, and clad in raiment
made of the same material, the hole
presenting a veritable picture, beautiful,
attractive and pleasing. Every product
of the soil is treated IN the same manner,
and when finished the whole Palace pre-
sents more the appearance Of scene
from Fairyland, than gathering of the
products of the earth.
In addition to this the threshed grains
and other products are presented by
samples in show cases, on shelves and in
glass jars, neatly arranged for exhibi-
ton.
The birds of the state are there, treated
by the Taxidermist g art, and the fishes
swimming in their native element, in
glass aquariums. There are also the
song birds by the hundreds, whose voices
fill the building with sweet notes, attest
ing their appreciation of the beautiful
scene that surrounds them. 1t were
futile to attempt description of this
wonderful work. A few have attempted
it, and we reproduce the efforts of some
OF the more distinguished. The Fort
Collins (Col.) Courier condensed the
whole in single sentence, exclaiming:
est rivals all the visions of youthful
fancy
The Bucyrus (Ohio) Telegraph, recog-
nizing the poverty of the English Ian
guage to do the subject justice, said;
"It is indescribable. The greatest ex-
position ever before the people. One is
dazed By the splendor which greets the
eye"
The Evansville Qnd.) Courier said:
cit is a magnificent structure, built
entirely of products from Texas. It is a
grand object lesson, showing the world,
at glance, what Texas is, and what she
has to offer TO capital and immigration. ="
The st. Louis Globe Democrat made an
effort to enlarge upon it to some extent,
but it found the task of minute descrip-
ton hopeless one, and after founder

department that % 900 tons of American
steel rails have been recently imported
into Mexico for use in the construction OF
the Monterey aud Mexican Gulf railway.
He says the president Of the road in
formed him the cost was less than it
would have been on the same quantity OF
European rails Of the same grade. This
is the first successful competition with
European rails.
The com mittee on ways and means are
beset on all sides to change the details OF
the tariff bill. The items that were
agreed upon after mature elaboration
are that the business interests affected
by the proposed changes are clamOring
for reconsideration and the members,
acting upon requests from their constitu-
euts, are seeking to seizure protection for
their interests to a degree beyond that
fixed in the bill. AS a result the compile
ton of the measure is delayed, and it Is
now stated it can not be reported to the
full committee Tomorrow as intended.
The item relating TO lead ores containing
silver (Mexican ores) was reOpened and
discussed all the afternoon without re-
suit.

CONTEMPTIBLE.

The Mayor of Colorado City, COL, Twice
Burned Cut on Account of Politics.
Special to the Gazette.
COLORADO CITY, COL. March 20.-For
the past year there has been a bitter war
waged between the prohibitionists and
the i-prohibitionists and the property
of several prominent men has been
threatened, particularly Mayor Stock
bridge, who is q strong prohibitionist.
About two months ago the exc
cution of the threats against the mayor
were carried out by some unknown
parties setting fire to his handsome resi-
dence. The loss TO the mayor from this
fire was Sl1 200. Since that time the air
has been filled with rumors that If Mr..
St0ckbridge was again nominated for
mayor he would be again burned out. at
the meeting OF the Republican and LIB
eral parties last night Mr.. ockbridge
received the nomination for mayor by
reclamation. The news had no sooner
been sent out than the threats which had
been made were renewed. Mayor Stock
bridge paid no attention 10 them and did
not place guard around his residence,
which is almost completed. At 3:45
o 'ciook this morning the residents OF
this cstT were aroused By an alarm OF

DENVER, COL, March 20.-Since the
saloons have bsen obliged TO close their
doors on Sunday, in compliance with an
order from the supreme court, the city
council has been seized with a spasmodio
effort to establish movement never be-
fore thought of in the West. At re-
cent meeting they passed an ordinance
closing all places Of business, even the
cigar stores, bakeries, drug stores and
news stands, and declared it unlawful to
engage in any occupation on the Sab
bath The newsboys were liable 10 ar
rest under this law for selling papers
upon the streets, and all hack, omnibus
and street car lines could have been
closed down. Mayor Lorderer to-day
after having given the subject consider
able study, vetoed the ordinance on the
ground that it would work more injury
than good TO the city, and furthermore
he believed it would be unconstitutional.

that all four companies want the lines extended
they can build longer piers The present
piers are too short for European steamships,
and the Old Dominion and the Savannah com
panies want TO be able 70 berth two Of their
ships instead OF one, which they are unable 70 do
now. The last two also want wider slip and
piers, that they need not be compelled DO keep

San ANTONIO, TEX, March 2o.-A lit

rushed to the mayors new residence.
They found it in flames, and also the
American hotel adjoining. That the IRE
was the work of incendiaries there can
be no doubt. Every effort of the fire de-
partment proved Of no avail, and botn
buildings burned to the ground. The loss
to the mayor is $4,000, with no Insurance,
and the loss to the American hotel IS
$1,000, also uninsured. Mayor Stock
bridge offers a reward of $500 for the
arrest and conviction of the person or

work. One man is missing from the
town, and it is thought that he Is buried

Laid to Rest.
Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, March 20.-Eight years
ago Senator Coke was "pne of the six
Democrats who voted against the Blair
bill in the senate. At that time the
measure was universally popular. The
people did not understand it in its true
light and the men who had the nerve to
oppose it were severely censured. Three
times did the bill pass the senate
despite the growing opposition, and each
time its defects were laid bare by Senator
Coke. To-day his hour OF triumph
came when the senate, by vote of 81 to
81 buried the bill beyond all
hope of resurrection. 1t is possible to
reconsider the vote, he said, but that
Will not help matters. The senator's
who voted against the bill to-day are not
going to change their minds. Yes, we
gave it the death blow this time beyond
q doubt.
ANOTHER DEMOCRAT OUSTED.
In the house Barnes Compton OF Mary
land made to-day a speech of uncommon
power showing his right to retain his
seat. 1t was of no avail, and by strict
party vote, Mead, the oontesting Re-
publican, was given the place. 1t had
been printed in the local press that at
least five Republicans would vote for
Compton, but they weakened when the
party whip was cracked. The plan Of
wholesale ousting as agreed on in caucus
was forced on them contrary to the die
tate of conscience by Boss Reed They
turned out q man whom they knew to be
rightfully elected.

The Old Man Changed His
Views.

When l was boy went to visit
an austere old uncle of mine, who
kept n country store in Florida
town. He was never known to laugh
out loud or to take amusement out
OF anything. There was u great
bumblebees' nest in the eavestrough
OF the old store, however, and the
darkies that were always hanging
about used to stir 1t up occasionally
to make fun. When n strange darky
would come around who did not
know OF the trick, the boys would
get him near the nest, stir up the
bees behind his back, and then quiet
ly get out of harms way and watch
the stranger jump when the bees
stung him.
This trick, when successfully car
ried out, was one of the very few
things that tickled old Uncle Ben,
and he would watch it's performance
with anxiety lest it should fail, and
would then retire to the back part
of the shop and shake for ten
minutes with internal laughter,
which only found outward expression
in his quivering stomach and Shout
ders and swapping black eyes. This
had been repeated scores of times,
when one day there came q hitch in
the proceedings. One bee lit just on
the old mans upper lip, and gave
him q sting that raised lump as
big as a pigeons egg there in one
minute.
Old Uncle Ben retired to the back
OF the shop, as usual, without giving
any sign of his smart, and followed
him to see him shake with laughter.
There was no shake this time, how
ever. The old man called mo to him
and said: "See here, my boy, you run
out into the back yard and get me a
lump OF cold, wet clay from the well
side" | did SO, and he sent me away
again, saying that he wanted the
clay to stuff up n rat hole with.
hid behind a barrel, however, and saw
him clap the clay to his mouth, take
his head in his other hand, and
stamp. around and swear to himself.
till l got scared. Then he took out
some ball blue from a box, wrapped
it up in his handkerchief, dipped it in
pail OF water and rubbed it on his
lip till he looked like an Indian on the
war path, Finally he Gained down,
washed himself off, and came out
looking sourer than ever.
The next day the boys found a
most promising victim. and were pre-
pairing to play the trick on him when
Uncle Ben came out and shouted:
Now then you lazy rascals, l won't
have you driving off my customers
with your scurvy tricks. The first
boy that touches that bees nest will
get q cowhide over his back" And
the darkies mover could understand
what caused the old man to change
his mind so suddenly about trick
that had amused him so many times.
