Last of a Successful Series.


The last of the most successful course
of entertainments ever conducted un-
der the auspices of the Madison Square
department Of the Young Mems Chris
tain Association. was given last eve
ming. Every available seat was filled.
The special feature of the evening was
the Mendelssohn Quintette Club, of
Boston.
The above meriIed tribute is paid to
the Mendelssohn Quintette Club by
the Chicago Tribune. The club is
widely and layorably known to the
music loving public throughout the
United States, and It's appearance at
Ghios opera house, in this city, on
Thursday evening, January 9Th, 1898,
under the auspices of the Y. M. 9. A.,
Of Texarkana, will prove rare treat
to our music loving people.
Prof. Gideon's Select School for
Boys opens again Monday, Jan. 2nd,

school are numerous. Those interest,"

Diversified Farming.

The subject OF diversified crops Is q
most important one in every Soutbcrn
State. Just now when an over pro-
duct;on Of Gotten has had the effect Of
gluttipg the markets of the world and
Daily Texarkana Democrat., 1892-12-31

reducing the price of this product to
unanimously low figure, the interest
in diversifying the agricultural pro-
ducts of the several cotton growing
States is necessarily greater than ever
before experienced in this portion of
the country. In consideration Of
these facts, we feel warranted in re-
producing the letter of a Texas farm
er. who writes from the Southern por-
ton of that State, to the U. S. Com
missioner of Agriculture, Hon. Jerry
Rusk, at Washington, d. G, stating
that he has already cut 1900 pounds
of tobacco ON each acre that he plant
ed, and is now cultivating the second
crop. The second crop, perhaps, win
equal 800 pounds. Two thousand
pounds at % cents pound, an aver
age price. means $40. 1 am plant
ing twenty-five acres" ays the Texan,
"The report from New York upon my
last years crop is all | could desire, it
being placed upon equal footing with
imported Havana tobacco by the ex-
perts,"
There is money in the earth if peo-
pie only know how to get it out.
Farmers plant wheat year after year,
or cotton, or oats, or corn, SIMPLY be-
cause they have never planted any
thing else. Tobacco can be grown in
Ohio, and tobacco is staple. Men
will smoke and chew, and go without
bread in the meantime, if it is neces-
sary,
Now the fact is well known that
this product can be produced in Ark
ansas as well as Texas or any of the
adjoining States, and why it is that
our homo farmers do not make the
effort to grow this valuable product
on an extensive and moneymaking
scale, we are at loss to comprehend.

Concert by Mendelssohn Quintette
Club.

At Association Hall, last night, the
Mendelssohn Quintette Club gave the
first in the series Of entertainments ar
ranged by the Boston Young Mems
Christian Association for the current
season,
The Club, which at one time was
our main-stay, for classic chamber
music, has so rarely appeared here of
late. that a concert in which ii takes
part has a distinct interest. Taken as
whole, or individually, the Club
made fine impression.
The above favorable mention ofthis
most excellent musical organization
was made by the Boston Transcript, a
very competent musical critic. The
Club will render one Of their delight
fu concerts in this city, on Thursday,
Jan. 9th, under the auspices Of the Y.

Fin de steele charity is farreaching,
and besides providing the actual necessi-
ties for the poor it strives to educate and
refine this unfortunate class. The Peo-
ple's palace of London is one of these
practical charities. 1t feeds the hungry
and reforms the wicked by teaching
them the beauty of work. The books,
the concerts and other refining infu-
ences are also moral factors. Under
this same head may be included the re-
rent free loan exhibition in New York
city, which included more than hun
dred real works of art. The title of each
picture was given, with biography of
the artist, and criticism which was of
assistance in educating the artistic ap-
probation Of these men and women,
who rarely have an opportunity of see-
ing good picture.

Some capitalists propose to build a
new railroad between Chicago and st.
Louis. 1t will cover a distance of 24s
miles, which is straight line between
the two cities. 1t is expected that the
speed of 100 miles can be maintained
with electricity as force, This tire,
mendous speed convinces one that it is
only matter of time when electricity
will entirely supersede steam as motive
power in railroading.

1t would seem that the closer the
modern inventor initiates nature the
more successful he is. For example,
the "whaleback" vessel is the most per-
fectly adapted sailing vessel ever made.
Its shape allows greater speed and il
adapts itself to the roll of the ocean
much better than any other. When the
mechanism of the birds flying apparatus
is discovered we may look for the per.
feeted flying machine.

II appeals TO the Nation.

The national public school celebration
of Columbus Day has gained ground
steadily since the first proposal for such
an observance of Americas fourth cen
tennial WIS made public 1t is not hard
TO discover the forces which have given
to this movement the unusual publicity
if has attained. 1t was apparent from
the first that it had in it the elements OF
great success
1t aimed to dignity the one character
istic American institution and bring
home to the thought of every citizen
what this northern continent owes to
free education.
Although the suggestion was first
made over year ago, yet no steps were
taken to organize national movement
until last February. This initial effort
resulted in the appointment of an execu-
tive committee by the American super
intendents of education at their meeting
in Brooklyn.
Several more weeks elapsed, and the
first official message announcing an or
ganization of forces for the national Co
lunbian public school celebration Of
Oct 81 was not published until March
81 Today the purpose, aim and scope of
the movement is known throughout
America.
The nractica bility of the ENTERPRISE re-
ceived almost instant recognition from
thousands Of friends of free education.
They saw at once that it had solid
meaning and true purpose. 1t would
impress upon 100000 youthful minds
the benefits of free and universal educa-
ton, and would give before the people
a merited prominence to the institution
in which is the hope of the future.
