President had consultation that day Wild
sorns of his advisers Ia reference to an al
legged insult offered by the new government
OF Chilli to Mr.. Pat Eagan, U. 3. minister az
Santiago. Mr.. Eagan has been any th'ng
else than an ornament either 20 bis native
or his adopted country. Ills present POSI-
tIon was given 30 him under the Idea shas
1t would strengthen Mr.. Harrison with the
IeIshmen In this country but no Idea Wss
ever more erroneous, for the average native
OF Ireland Gan see through srlok ss readily
az any one else. and has just as correct an
opinion of the class to which Mr.. Eagan be-
iones-"professiona I'ishmen." But ieaV-
ioe the reason OF Mr. Eagsn's appointment
out OF view, the mere fact that ne was ap-
pointed shows that go far from being adVan-
tsgeous to this country, the ministers there
OF are positively dsadvantageous. Had
there been no U. 8 minister In Chill, there
would have been no cause fer the trouble
now existing between che two countries.

Leproay In Europe.

DIR. Ernest Besiner lately made report
TO the French academy upon the reappear-
ance Of leprosy in Europe. The disease,
he says, has had disqueting development
in Spain chiefly in the province of Valen.
Gin. whence large quantities of fruit and
greens go to Paris and other French cities.
But the disease. he maintains, can only be
transmitted from man TO man directly; it
does not either travel by the ground or by
water or air. Neither is II hereditary.
The bacillus of the disease is similar to
that of tuberculosis; it may even be the
same species. The best means to prevent
infection consists in proper attention 70 by.

Hunt county consists of $3.50, 900 acres
OF land, OF which only $4,000 are in cul-
tivation and only 2l,OOO acres OF
waste land in the entire county. At the
present rate OF progress among the new
settlers there viii be 100000 acres In

duct will bring at least seven million
dollars per annum. To-day, with 1885,
600 acres in cultivation, Greenville

ulation Of over 5000 people. With the
increase of acreage OF cultivated lands,
the city will sustain at least 10000 peo-

source alone. To this add the many
thousands OF employees Of the new car
shops, machine shops, car wheel foun-

The Mineola branch will also be eX-

it an excellent quality of coal. 1t can be

A company OF eastern capitalists have
been testing the iron of eastern Texas
with satisfactory results and now con-
template locating large car wheel
foundry in this city to manufacture car
wheels and other castings for several
extensive systems OF railway. The mas
ter mechanic OF the NJ, X. Il I. at Par
sons has given severe tests to wheels
made from iron procured in east Texas
and pronounces them the best OF any
make in use." TO the date of his re-
port trial set Of these wheels had run
9S. 600 miles without q single evidence
of a break. He says 10000 miles is q
good run for any other make Of wheel.
These wheels have also been tried on
the Texas Pacific with the same good
results, and Superintendent Elliott says
''they are the best wheel made" Twen'
ty-five hundred of these wheels are also
in use on the 1. & G. N, and not one
has yet broken, and their work Is con.
sidered marvellous. The plant to be
