Iexas cities, but Its great value, says
State geologist Hill, is to be seen in
the improvement of health. Deep
seated underground waters carry
no germ of typhoid or malaria.
BRENNAN could easily get these
healthgiving waters by boring for
it. Brenham needs and should have
an artesian well.
The papers have spoken a num-
Der of times lately of the illness of
Secretary Blaine. Last week he
was in New York, sick at the house
of his daughter. He was seeking in
Gotham slight relief from his
cares. and was FRUSTRATED by sick
ness. Daily bulletins have been
given of the state of his health, and
physicians and correspondents seem
to have allowed themselves to coin
lies. At first it was alleged that his
illness was a slight attack of indi-
gestion, and assurances were volun-
teered that he would soon return to
Washington, but later it was gwen
out that he had the govt, and now
comes the news that he will be up
and all right in day OF two.
A DIsPTCH from Washington says:
Leaders of the Third Party
movement here profess to have
direct assurance that Senator
Stanford, of California, is ready to
put himself at the head of thoeir
movement with all that it implies,
and that he will be the standard
hearer of the alliance" or Peoples
Party in 1892" 1t seems that the
movement against millionaires and
monopolists find no trouble about
securing millonaires and mo-
nopolists to direct the movement.
Stanford and Calhoun would make
an excellent poor mans presidential
pair in 1892.
Crop prospects in the entire west
were nver better at this season of )
the year than now. The railroads
are putting their equipment in
shape to handle the immense ton
mage that is bound to be offered. .
If any line fails to make money this
year it will be one in either Iowa OF
Texas, where railroads are expected
do business at loss and pay those
States for the privilege of existing
besides. Glorious States these two
are, but the men in charge of affairs
know how to smother their light
under a bushel instead of inviting
capital to develop the many
that each are blessed
with says the Railway Register.
SAM JONES has closed his meet
ings IN Houston after one of the
most remarkable and successful
revivals he ever conducted. He will
be at the Corpus Christi Chatanqua
on June the Goth. He sai6t in his
last sermon that Houston now led
the United States referring to the
phenomenal success of his meetings
at various places. There was 700O.S
people out to hear his last, and the
Post says, best meeting, and when
he called for them to come up and
give their hearts to God 1000 re-
sponded. He promises to return :
next Spring. The effect of his meet
ings after his departure viii be
watched with interest.
