tonic says:
The terrible drouth prevailing in the
southwest of Texas for nine weeks W s
broken Saturday night by a storm, 70 =
lowed by a drcnching rain. Only two
showers had fallen for nine weeks in
the vast area south of San Antonio for
200 miles, and west for 400 miles. Cot
ton bolls had begun TO drop from the
stems; the corn crop was ruined, and the
cattle ranges had been parched. Appall-
ing restitution prevailed for two weeks
past along the Rio Grande from Preside
to Cameron county. In Elidalgo and
Starr counties many cattle died from
want of grass That country is now
destitute on account of three annual
drouths, and the lawlessness of u semi
civilized condition prevails. Saturday
nights storm was very severe through
out the country.

His NInrriace Aided Him.

Abram S. Hewitt affords an example
of the value of profitable marriages.
Naturally man Of great force Of char
acter and jealous student with worthy
ambitions, be would have succeeded
anywhere and in almost any line of
activity, but his marriage to the daugh-
ter of Peter Cooper placed him at once
on a plane which he, upaided by the
fortunate alliance, might never have
succeeded in attaining.
He was but a teacher when he first
loved his respected wife. but once the
son-in-law Of the great benefactor and
philanthropist he assumed a prominence
IN the public eye that gave him prestige.
As plain Abram S. Hewitt, the teacher,
he would have been 10 less a man; but
as Abram S. Hewitt. the son-in-law of
Peter Cooper, the public was predisposed
to hear him.
The marriage leveled for him barriers
that long years of self, unaiGed labor
might never have overcome. He profited
by the circumstances and became an al
most natural figure. That he improved
his opportunities Is TO his credit. but that
the opportunities were available was the
result of happy, fortunate marriage

A Chinaman in an Art Gallery

You can tell the new Chinaman in
New York by his headgear. He wears
little black skull cap of silk, whereas
MS fellow Chinaman Of long residence
in the country invariably wears a low
crowned, black felt hat, with medium
brim, which is manufactured somewhere
in Connecticut especially for the Chinese
American trade and sold at dollar
apiece. 1t is curious TO notice the be-
wildered air of the newly arrived China
man as he goes about the city under the
escort of two or three of his country
men. l saw group of four Cinnamon
in an art gallery the other day, and i'm
mediately discerned that one was new
conner. The other three were showing
him the sights.
The pictures in the gallery were all
imported, and l noticed that the new
Chinaman was constantly looking at the
figures in the pictures and then looking
around at the people in the gallery,
seemingly trying to compare the details
of garments. OF course they were total
ly different, and his companions went
through vast amount of talk to explain
to him that we do not make many pict-
ures in this country compared with
what we buy abroad. One of them with
whom struck up a conversation said to
me, Him not belly well understand
why Mclean man no makee himself on
painting" 1t was something of a poser.

Then they brought them by the ship

however, broke up rapidly and were
washed away. and it was found neces-
