THE POINT Is, TEXAS MUST GET
THERE.

What is the good reason the County Ex-
hibiterS' association have for working out
side of the State Worlds fair organization
Do they mean to say they will exhibit alone
or not all! Do they mean to say they will
not under any circumstances cooperate
with the Worlds fair peoplea If this is the
case, why do the county exhibit folks take
this course9 What the News is de-
sirous of getting at is the true in
wardness of a movement that, like any
hlndrance to cooperation in common
cause. will do the cause no good. If there
is anything to be accomplished by the split
ting of forces, what is it, The simple and
paramount question is, what is best to be
done in order to exhibit Texas at the
Worlds fairl 1t is dangerous step for
the county exhibitors to take if they hamper
the general Worlds fair movement, for if
they will not be hurt by it, who will' Texas
will suffer from any weakening of her forces
in a strong effort to get to the Worlds fair,
and the county exhibitors are j part of
Texas. In all the proceedings of the county
exhibitors, which the News has given as
part of the public expression, no convincing
reason is given for the lone hand they
are playing. They have formed strong
organizations SO far, but are they on
the right track? The public may not be as
well informed as they, and something may
yet come. that will throw light on the
Worlds fair project. 1t looks like
fine work in keeping herself
away fir. m the Worlds fair Look squarely
at the facts. Is there any sense in divid-
ing the grand effort to put Texas at Chicago
in 1882 Some good men have gone off on
the county exhibit plan, and for this reason
the movement has elements of discord and
defeat in it unless the county plan is well
based. There IS no better time than right
now to sift this whole matter out and see
what the chance is Of uniting all Texas in
one effort for the Worlds fair work. The
talk about putting county exhibits at St.
Louis may be kept up till doomsday and no
one will be convinced that such plan will
in any conceivable way equal the plan of
going with all Texas has into one grand,
ample building eligibly located on the
Worlds fair reservation at Chicago. The
people from all over the world will be at
Chicago and will ask for Texas. You will
see how the thing will work if you say, go
to st. Louis to see Texas. The time is Just
about ripe to get down to business and say
We will all go together to Chicago and go
for Texas and her building, for, mark the
statement, people will go to Chicago TO see
Texas on exhibition and thousands will 40
for that purpose from every state and
cline. As to the rules of the Worlds fair
managers against collective exhibits, they
are established, and presumably for good
reason. If not for good reason, 60 to
work and have them changed. If they are
wise rules and stand, what can few people
do by opposing themi II you look the thing

THE JUICY BlVS.
Oysters as They Were Thousands of Year.
Ago, and as They Are To-Day.
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.

Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
The highly digestible quality of the oys-
ter, considered as food, was known at a very
early period. When Sergius Orato
''ennobled the Lucerne oysters
the British variety was IN
known TO the Romans, but SallusU, at
least fifty years B. c., says of the Britons
that there is some good in them after all,
as they produce an oyster. Sergius had his
beds of Baie, and made a profit out of
them, as they were much in request as u
prelude to a banquet, and were esteemed
besides for their medicinal virtues. ''They
nourish wonderfully we are told, land
solicit rest" being more healing than
any drug or mixture that the apothecary
can compound. The disgusting habits Of
the Romans enabled them to swallow in
some cases q thousand British oysters at a
sitting, but that was when, as Professor
Huxley reminds US, even ladies carried
about with them peacock's feathers aud
other dainty throat ticklers for the pur-
pose when they anticipated more lux
uriouS feed than usual"
Seneca, in the time of Nero, renowned
both oysters and mushrooms as mere provo
cations of appetite, causing those who are
already full to eat more, 4 thing no doubt
very pleasant to gluttons, who like to stuff
themselves with such food as very readily
slips down and very readily returns" But
IN times Elucn more remote oysters were in
vogue. In Denmark and the Northern
parts of our island kitchen middens of the
stone age yield oyster shells, and Professor
Forbes affected to pity ''the enthusiastic
oyster eater, who can hardly gaze upon the
abundantly -entOmbed remains of the ap-
parently well-fed and eegantly-shaped,
oysters Of our Eocene formation
without chasing "a pearly tear away" We
cannot believe that oysters ever went out of
fpc biOO with (lc+,.s
ours in Anglo-Saxon, and seems to be con-
nected with lost" knot, scale Viii
liam the Conquerer is said to have esteemed
the oyster very highly, and it figures in
the menu of many medieval feasts, espe-
cially in Lent.

SIR EDWIN ARNOLD told his New
York friends OF the Lotos club that an
author OF creative genius should be
satisfied with the fame his writings
brought him, and not demand bread
and butter also from the muses., as
though they were German mattresses
in coffee house. That may
all be very well for wealthy
and titled aristocrat, but what
is to become of the Goldsmiths and
Millions? Notwithstanding Sir Ed
wins very pretty conceit, the plain
truth OF the matter is that literary
production which will not nowadays
supply its author with bread and butter,

The Difference of Appraisemen..


The following paragraph from the Fort
Worth GAZETTE shows how highly one es-
teens himself, or in other words, how much
one thinks his character is worth:
Conducting libel suit is not profita-
bic business, as Mr.. Ignatius Donneliy will
now admit. He sued a st. Paul paper for
100000, and a jury allowed him 81. In his
opinion, his character was worth Sl0G, 600,
but twelve disinterested men appraised its
value at ST.
Mr. Donnelly is not the only man in this
country that values himself at Sg9, 500 above
par.

sWITHOUT A NAME is a translation by
Edgar Saltus of a novel by Jules Barley
d'Aureville, and published BY Bedford
u Co., New York.
Like the novels of the French school of
fiction, IL deals with such characters and
phases OF life as cannot be touched without
detilement. That the author had rare gifts,
must be admitted, yet that ne and others
like him prostitute their gifts TO base uses
is equally undeniable. Edgar Saltus appears
as apologist for French novelists in a we'll
written introduction, wherein he admits in
giving honor to others that as writer Bar
hey d Aureville IS attackable. With Saltus
the point of attack is careessness of die
ton, but with clean-minded critic dress
counts for little when the soul, the spirit
of fiction, is unclean. The story without
Name" is without moral, and the benefit
conferred upon American readers by its
translation is of most doubtful quality.
