room, cash So so, checks Sl6.l5, total
lunch room sales S25.95; billiard room,
Gosh 80 cents, checks 81, total billiard
room sales $3.50. The total receipts OF
the canteen were S64 95. The bar

cold weather.
There were two enlisted men con-
fined in the post guard house at Fort
Sam Houston yesterday, one from A
company, 2Srd Infantry, and one from
F company, 9Th Infantry. There was
no one released from ii yesterday.
The 23rd infantry band will give
their regular bi-weekly concert at the
military post tonight.
Dress parade was given at the mil
itary headquarters yesterday. The
men turned out in white trousers and
helmets and blue blOuses, with the
exception of /. and \. troops, 3rd
cavalry, who wore forage caps. These
troops are still consolidated at dress
parade and will continue being so I'M
til the return of the troops from Dali
las.
Private Santhmayel, of A. troop,
3rd cavalry, got his wrist sprained
while working on the government
hay stacks. He was sent to the hos
pital for treatment. There is one
great thing about military life which
can not be found in civil life, which IL
that If a man receives the slightest
hurt, which makes it hard for him
work, he is sent to the hos pital wht re
he receives professional treatment IN
til he thoroughly RECEIVERS himself. In
civil life man cannot get in to hos
pital without loOsing by it; for be-
sides loosing time he must pay heavy
fees for nursing, and physicians fees
also. This is all free to the soldier
He loses no time or money by it, and
is paid just the same when in the
hospital as when out. Though an
enlisted mans lite has many draw
backs, still there is also q sunny side
to 1t.
Steward King of the hospital corn
has been relieved from his duties at
Fort sam Houston y Steward Ed
wards, and leaves the city this even
ing at o'clock with his wife for his
new post at Springfield Armory.
Springfield, Mass. The Steward is
glad of the change. though his many
friends here are very sorry to lose
him.

What the People are Saying.
The official organ of the Callsghan
administration is dropping its line
into the political waters to catch q
candidate for alderman at large to
trip the administration.
The platform is the same old Gala.

ment," which means extravaganza in

| recklessness with dealing with the
public interests, Improvement" of
the pockets of a few pets; rapid "pro-
gress" OF the city Indebtedness.
Experience in the past has proven
that one alderman more or less in the
Callaghan "Griffins nest" would
amount to nothing. The opposition
on the city council has been most
brutsl!y treated; but if we are to have
one let us have man who will not
owe his election to any combination
with the alien Mexican vote; or to
any monied ring or corporation, who
will be able to get up ir the council
and openly denounce the outrageous
violations OF the city charter prac-
ticed daily by the Callaghsn outfit.
Save the meager mention in the
Austin Geographic correspondence of
the Express there mas been no account
given of Mayor Cailaghan's part in
the King Goodrich controversy over
the Arkansas Pass rail road. The peo-
pie would like to know what they
are paying Mr.. Callaghan q salary
for, if he spends his time abroad ON
other business.
The dispatch said, that Mayor
Callaghan was in consultation with
Gov. Hogg over the King-Goodrich
fight; what business had the mayor
of San Antonio to mix up in this
fight; was he paid for the use of his
political influence or was it q part of
the old election compact?
The people understand that for a
while 1t looked rs there would be
fight with wholesalers and six
shooters between the bailiffs and
forces of the two judges. What bust.
ness had Callaghan ordering portion
of his police force to the scene of &C.
ton, under command of Capt. Shar-
dein, our city marshal?
The people don't pay city taxes for
this purpose.
II Mayor Callaghan can 90 off and
remain for months enjoying Euro.

along without him entirely, he is
simply costly and not very pretty

Do Americans Overfeed?

An intelligent and close observer
says the majority of people eat about
a third too much. The average
American really dimes three times a
day, with his beefsteak breakfast,
chops for lunch, aud roast beef at his
6 O'Clock dinner. And he does il at
his peril. for this habit of overfeeding,
especially of eating so much meat, is
one of the provoking causes of so
many sudden illnesses and so many
sudden premature deaths. Three
meals day of hearty food is exhaust
ing to all the vital processes, and even
the strongest succumb finally to this
ridiculous and wasteful excess"
Americans are nation of brain work.
ars, and can not safely induIg ge in high
living. High thinking, or constant
use of the brain in any direction, calls
for plain but nourishing diet. Brain
workers, especially, ought to live
sparingly. Luxurious feeders require
much exercise in the open air aud
freedom from pressure on the brain.
For the aged, or even for those above
so. luxurious living and oyerfeeding
are especially dangerous. As func-
tional activity lessons with increasing
years. the supply of food should be de-
creased accordingly. The hardest
races live on the simplest fare. Fru.
gality in diet. e. a minimum amount
of the right quality-serves far more
certainly to prolong life, insure health,
and well-being, than rich abundance
and variety. which is accountable in a
large measure for the ill-health and
dissatisfaction of the present time.

The Status of Woman,

Among the options recently advised
by the Faculty and accepted by the Re-
gents, is one which will doubtless cause
much comment in the educational
world, as well as in other circles. For
the first time in educational history, it
is believed, is the condition of women to
be assigned place in university cur
iculum: and is such a study to be given
prominence and value as part OF liber-
al education. 1t seems quite fitting that
''The status of woman in the United
States" should first be subject for in
vestigation, from the historical and
practical standL Loint, in the University
of Kansas, in which from the opening
of its doors no distinction of sex has
ever been tolerated. but coeducation.h has
been absolute and complete.
Professor James Fl. Garfield in whose
department of American history and
civics this new work falls, has been
striving to secure this option for sew
eral years-but financial and other rea-
sons forbade until now. The course
will include at first three conferences
each week of the second term: but will
become a full term study as soon as the
library facilities will warrant this ex-
UouolOIl, IL Will Optu Will d DTlel re-
view Of the condition and position of
woman in all countries and in all ages,
down to about A. d. 1850. There will
follow a more careful study of woman
during the century preceding the colo
nization Of America-to determine
what may be called fatherland infu-
ences. Woman in America
will next claim attention, in
colonial, revolutionary and early
nineteenth century periods. The course
will close with careful examination Of
the legal, poetical, industrial, educa-
tional and professional status of women
in the several states of the American
Union.
The proposed course has already at
tracted much attention. Miss Frances
E. Willard writes very warmly, and
calls il "a lever of the finest Bessemer
steel-the greatest single step yet taken
in higher education, and others are
equally strong in their expressions OF
This study in itself will
merit strong influence in bringing
the young women of this state to the
University 1t is a recognition of their
interests to which they will very natur-
ally respond Journal.
