looks just as good as the genuine
but it hasn't the aoazp threads, ana
SO lacks strength, and while it sells
for only a little less than the genu-

The fact that "a Horse Blankets

THE UNION PACIFIC.
1t is Generally Conceded that it Has Passed
Under Vanderbilt Control.

The announcement that the Vanderbilts
had secured the contoi Of the Union Pacific
system IS generally credited in New York
The Times says: Important developments
in the affairs of the Union Pacific railroad
are expected this week A meeting of the
recently appointed tinanciering committee,
OF which J. Pierrepont Morgan is the head,
will be held to-day or tomorrow in this city
Il is probable that the outcome of the meet
ing may be of greater significance than the
mere putting into effect of the scheme for
carrying the floating debt.
The ruInOrS that the Vanderbilts are to
take control of the property are received
with serious consideration in Wall street,
wnereJ. Pierrepont Morgan s close relations
with the NanderbiltS are duly appreciated.
1t is well known that when the Gould
Dillon contingent first approached Mr.. Nor
gan with request for aid in Strengthening
out the finances of the Union Pacific COM
pany il met with 4 chilling reception. When
finally Mr.. Morgan consented TO take charge
OF the scheme for temporarily dispOsing of
the Sl9, O0O,OO0 of floating debt it transpired
that he had eXacted concessions that practi-
cally put him in control Of the property. AS
the story goes now, President Dillon will
soon be succeeded by man identified with
the Vanderbilt interests, and General
Manager 5. H H. Clark, Mr. Goulds able
first lieutenant. will also retire to make
room for i Vanderbilt man. Should these
things come to pass the St. Paul and Rock
Island roads would come into very close and
friendly relations with the great Wander
bilt system, which would then far surpass
in extent any other railroad system on
earth
This is considered as a remarka bly, fortu-
nate condition of affairs for Fort Worth.
1t is understood that parties in the Wander
bilt interest have recently been over the
line of the projected Red River, Sabine and
Western railroad with view to purchas-
ing its securities. The Vanderbilts own
the Louisville. New Orleans and Texas,
with which C>nnection can be made at
Natchez thus giving, with the Fort Worth
and Denver City railway,a direct line from
Colorado and the coast to the Southeast
Atlantic ports. 1t seems to be the opinion
of railroad men here that there is consider
able truth in the report

Mischief in Paris-Elopers Have

Special to the Gazette.

ESptCtIl 10 inc iIdLtiIt'-
PARIS. Ten, Sept "A team driven by
MIR. VIII Godfrey ran away yesterday and
threw Godfrey from the wagon. One foot
was caught in wheel and the leg broken
the wagon was also shivered to pieces, an
electric light pole broken down, and the
team, IN active pair of young mules, finally
hung up in bois dare tree.
On last Sunday night Mr. Dud Harris
and Miss Daisy Pike decided to elope. The
groom had the assistance of two friends
Messrs. Win Watson and Lee Terry. The
bride resided i'll Delta county. The trio
succeeded in stealing her away, but the
theft was soon discovered by the stepfather
of the girl, and he overlook them near
Halesboro, in Red River county, but he was
covered with Winchesters and told to re-
trace his steps.
The party then came on to Milton and
stopped at the residence of Mr.. Francis,
where Lee Terry had an elopement planned
with a Miss Francis, but Mr.. Francis sur
prised them, and grabbing Il gun got the
drop and held them in the corner of a fence
until an officer could be found. But the
officer could do him no good, as the stealing
of willing bride was not theft under our
statute, and he reluctantly consented that
MIR. Lee Terry and his daughter should be-
come husband and wife.

Tho Same to be Greatly Improved in the
Interest OF Agriculture
Correspondence OF the Gazette.
GALVESTON, TEX, Aug. 31.-One of the
most important steps for increasing the
benefits to be derived from the weather
bureau under the department of agrlcu-
ture which has been taken by Professor NJ.
W. Harrington, the new chief of the bu-
reau, is that of improving the weather
forecast in the interest of agriculture. On
learning that DR.. l. NJ. Cline, who has re-
Gently been appointed a local forecast Of
fetal in the weather bureau, had been au-
thoriZed to make forecasts from this place
for Texas, the representative Of the Texas
press called on him for information as to
expected improvements in this line and was
referred to some article by Professor Har-
rington in recent numbers of the American
Meteorological journal in which he gives
his views as to forecasts, and they are
briefly summed up in the 4D8owin
Professor Harrington Do-.eves that while
commercial interests should be served TO
the greatest extent possible, the open
ing for the greatest Improvements is in the
line of increasing the benefits of the service
to agricultural interests. He holds that
the study of local weather predictions
should receive special attention; that the
forecasts should be more in detail. as the
farmer is specially interested in rainfall
predictions, but vague prediction IS not
particularly useful to him. To know that it
is going 10 rain in Texas, or that there are
going to be local rains, does not satisfy his
requirements, buts.what he needs to know is
the time and place at which rain will occur,
together with its character and any other
meteorological features which may accom-
pany it; but that it may be doubted if exact
predictions of this character may ever be
made at distance, yet careful and system
attic study may make them possible. His
opinion seems to be that this object may be
attained to some extent, and at any rae i'm
proved, by decentraliZing the forecasts by
placing forecast officials in different parts
of the country with the special duties OF
giving the most complete forecasts possible
and studying local climatic features, which
plan is now being put into operation and is
one which has been urged by the press for
some time, and will unquestionably result
in greatly increased benefits TO the public
DR.. Cline states that ne will commence
the issue of forecasts for that part Of Texas
east Of the one hundredth meridian at an
early date, and that the forecasts will be
made as detailed as practicable for the diff
ferent sections Of the state, and in addition
he will add to his forecast, when circum-
stances justify it. the effects which ex-

proved acceptable to all concerned.
The subject being one which involves
more or less examination into the situation
as to rates based on mileage, the reaching
of a final conclusion in relation thereto is
one that can only be attained by an analysis
OF the situation created under the new or
der of rates, and hence failure to reach a
final decision. Consideration was also given
to the issuance of daily quotations of ocean
