A winter in the South-the very words
c~onjure up delicious memories for those
who have been there. The bright sunny
skies. the dry bracing air and the warm
sunshine is in decided contrast to the
cold. bleak North.
The great state of Texas is celebrated
as one great broad winter resort in itself,
but the following places are, perhaps,
particularly popular: Fort Worth, with
its mineral baths. healthful climate and
good hotels; Austin. the beautiful capitol
city; San Antonio, one of the few really
historical places in our country; Houston,
with It's blooming roses, oleanders and
groves of oranges and lemons. and Gal
weston with its delicious sea breezes.
These are but a few OF the delightful
resorts OF the highly favor ed region.
An escape FROM all the pains and dis
comforts of u rigorous weather, trans
ported by magic from the region of snow
and ice to the fragrance of this GUNNER
land, is now made possible and easy by
the Denver, Texas & Fort Worth branch
of the Union Pacific system, which runs
through Pullman palace sleepers be-
tween Denver, Fort Worth, Dallas Shreve-
port and New Orleans. and offers exceed
ing low excursion rates to all Southern
cities from Denver, Colorado Springs and
Trinidad. For a full description of South
ern winter resorts, reached over the
Union Pacific system. or for excursion
rates, apply to your nearest Union Pacific
agent or write to Geo. Ady, general agent

SPRINGFIELD, Mass Nov, 25.-Henry
II. HYDE. the Massachusetts, member of
the Republican national committee, has
returned to Washington. In an inter
view this afternoon he said: 1T is per-
fectlv understood that Blaine will be nom

CARLISLE SPEAKS OUT.
Kentucky's Brilliant Senator
Favors the Corsicaua Man.
He Says Mills Would Make an
Efficient Speaker.
h Tariff Reform Man Now
Needed as a Leader.
Carlisle Euiogizes Mills.

New YORK, Nov. 25.-Under date of
Nov. II, Congressman j. B. Warner
wrote to Senator Carlisle in reference to
Congressman Mills candidacy for the
speakership, saying, in part, that be rec
ognizes the strength Of Mills CLAIM,
based not only on his record, but the fact
that every Democratic member of con.
gress whom | know to be in favor of rele-
eating tariff reform to the rear is opposed
TO Mr.. Mills. 1t Is, however. asserted,
says MIR. Warner, that Mills Is untitled by
effective presiding officer. Warner begged
Carllsle's opinion on the subject.
Senator Carlisle, in reply, reiuted the
assertion. and says he's sure if mills is
elected no one will ever have a just cause
to complain OF his demeanor or the gen.
eral course on political questions. Refer
ring to his unfortunate disposition in some
quarters to subordinate the question of
tariff reform to others less important to
the people and dangerous to the harmony
and success of the Democratic party, Sen
ator Carlisle said: Upon the tariff auss.
ton we are practically united. while upon
the silver question and perhaps some
others, there are wide and honest differ
ences of opinion among the members of
our party which can only be ~reconciled by
patient dehberation.
Why shall we, on the eve OF a great
national contest when victory is almost
within our grasp, abandon or ignore the
vital issue upon which we are united and
waste strength in the %iruItless controversy
over questions which can better be ad-
iusted after it has been determined what
part of their own earnings the people
shall be permitted to keep2 The first
duty of the Democrats is to change the
laws under which the earnings of the peo-
pie are taken away from them by unjust
taxation Tor private purposes aud who
ever proposes to postpone the performance
of this duty in or to inaugurate among
ourselves a war over the silver question,
or any other. is not a wise counsellor aud

A w OFF In Chicago.

CHICAGO, Nov. 25.-South side
citizens had an exciting time with a real
live wolf this morning. Just where the
animal came from is not known. but he is
supposed to have drifted from the north
with the recent cold wave, aud is probably
one of the pack that has been making
things so lively up near St Paul. The
first intimation that the residents Of that
portion of the CITY had of the arrival OF
the ~stranger was its appearance on Indiana
venue near Twenty-ffth street. 1t was a
large, Rauut, grey beast and those who
first saw 1t supposed 1t to be a halt
starved dog. but the savage name in
which it chased Il small dog into a yard
and then stood s%narling and swapping
outside the iron fence aroused the
curiosity of those who saw it. 1t was
evidently somewhat bewildered by its
surroundings, for it SHE'D away from
pedestrians. even while Rlaring hungrily
at them and skulked behind the shade
trees. Once it appeared on the point of
%sprineing upon a passing child, but Just
then it was startled by a shout and the
dog catcher's came in sight on its
daily round and captured the wolf.

Borden,s Alaskan ReDort.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25. -Superintend-
emit Borden of the refuge station at Point
Barrow, in his report dated Aug. 9, says
he has heard Dothing from any ships this
year, and as it is getting late and winter
is setting in, it is doubtful if any will ar
rive. The ice is in heavy masses and is
very compact and extends off the shore
from the bar as far as the eve can reach.
There are forty tons oil coal and stores
sufficient on hand to carry them comforta-
bly, unless some disaster befalls the ships
another year.
The winter has been mild, with much
pleasant weather. The coolest weather
was January, when the thermometer
stood 49.90 below zero. The superin
tendcnt expresses the opinion that the
refuge station is filled with rough sailors
OF different ~patioualities. and it Is not the
proper place for a native school, and sug-
gests other provisions for the education of
the young natives. He reports the wreck
of the schooner Silver Wave in October
OF last year and the assistance rendered
the crew.
He also tells of conspiracy formed
against him by a gang OF seamen, one o
whom. named Larson, made an attempt
to kill him with a club. Larson was
placed in irons and taken to a place OF
safety. Borden says during the past
year at Cape SmYthe village there were
but four deaths, including the principal
native chief, who died from alcoholism.
One of the reasons OF the lowness of
the birth rate Is the women's fear of the
treatment they get during confinement,
being placed in a snow house with a
limited amount Of food and all communi-
cation with them is prohibited.

salisbury speaks Again.

BIRMINGHAM. Nov. 25.-The Unionists
gave a party in honor of Lord Salisbury
today. In his speech, referring to the
tariff question, he said on all sides there
appeared constantly increasing protective
duties calculated to stifle British trade.
The protection heresy on which tariffs
were founded grew like other evil passions
upon what it fed. Watching Euglish
statistics he could not but feel an anxiety
lest the efforts of foreign protection
lists should be partially successful
The errors of foreign statesmen might
be translated to Great Britain. Undoubt-
eddy British trade was being hindered for
the moment BY foreign legislation. Con-
tinuing, he said the government will seize
with avidity any measure promising leRit-
imately to increase employment for her
laborers either in town or in the rural dis.
tricts. One OF the most acute OF the gov
erument's anxieties was the fact that the
people in their Ignorance tried remedies
which, if obtained. would plunge them
into a far greater misery.
The government had a narrow path to
tread; it must avoid dangerous apathy in
attempting to cure the suffering by
simply ignoring the causes. On the other
hand, it must shun the far more danger
GUS course of wandering into economic
errors that might plunge the whole
COUNT into irrepairable disaster.
He concluded by con%gratulating the
Liberal Unionists on their steady adhesion
to the Conservative alliance. Joseph
Chamberlain predicted that England's
foreign relations would DO seriously men
aced if Gladstone again came into power,
thus giving effect TO his views against the
dreibuud.
