In a Healthier Condition Than for
Years
WASHINGTON, Ca, Nov. g.

WASHINGTON, Ca, Nov. g.
In my opinion the South, and par
ticularly our own state, is in q health.
Ter condition than tor many years.
Since the war our people have given
their whole time and attention to the
raising upon. the West for all food
crops for man and beast. This year
they have made their own corn, raised
largely of hay, meats and wheat and
bought very few goods at high credit
prices. They have paid their mer>
chants. and now have more money
than they have had in many years.
1t is to be hoped they will not be led
away by the promise of high price
for cotton in 1898, and that whatever
the price may be, that they will make
all their food crops at home II your
people will con tinue to do what they
have done this year we will he the
most prosperous people in the Union,
and II We continue to raise our food
crops aud our own mules and horses
we will be leaders of money instead
of borrowers. The more cotton We
make the less per pound we get; the
less we make the more per pound we
will get Lands in Tennessee and
Kentucky at the close of the war were
of about equal value with ours in this
county (Wilkes By reason of our
bestowsl of patronage on them, theirs
have quadrupled and ours in a like
degree have deprecated. If we live
at home aud Withdraw our patronage
from them our lands will appreciate,
while theirs will depreciste. Our
people, after over quarter of o CEN
fury of folly, have at last awakened
to a sense of duty, and hope they
will ever keep their eyes open. We
can raise as much corn. oats, wheats,
rye, barly and hay to the acre as any
Western state. We are a favored
people, If we could but get ourselves
to believe 1t. In climate, soil, water
and all things else we are fully equal
to any spot on this con tinent. We
want good, thrifty New EngIsnders,
Western men and good Europeans to
come here, and they can make money

TEXANS DILLY-DALLYING.

By Julia Truitt BiShop.[
The people of Texas are often heard
deploriDg hard times, wishing for
manufactures and imploring Provi-
dence to send them larger crop of
capitalists and investors. The truth
Is. no country in the world ever COM
planned with less cause, or did so
little to help itself IL Is q won
derful spectacle in this alert and
busy Nineteenth century. to see
the people of q grand and produce
tive country sitting around with their
hands fn their pockets and waiting
Tor something tn turn up, and com
plating bitterly because nothing
turns up. Think of state like
Texas, with it's enormous range or
possible products, and then think of
how little it 10 actually producing.
While the farmers of the country are
starving to death raising cheap cot
ton the people OF the cities are forced
to buy their potatoes from Utah, their
cabbages from Iowa. their canned
fruits and vegetables from Baltimore
aud Ohio, their bacon and lard from
Kansas City and Chicago. With the
grand fruit belt running through the
state and compromising the greater
portion OF it, we import fruit from
everywhere and pay all the freighrs
and the commissions between the
buyer and the far.off orchard from
which the fruit was plucked. With
our whole state one great natural
vineyard, which should supply
grapes in Infinite variety fer every
season of the year, we import
grapes from New York. from Ohio,
from California, and even from Spain,
and>pay the enormous price of these
imported luxuries without q murmur.
With the finest timber that ever grew
in our own forests, we buy our furni-
ture and wagons and carriages In the
north; and very often the tim Der has
grown In our forests and been shipped
to the mandatory In the rough, and
we pay the freight on 1t both::ways
And then we complain of hard times!
The fact is, the people of Texes mean
well, but they are lacking in COM
mon sense. A few more years of this
dilly-dallying, and they will find
that q shrewder and more practical
people have come in and taken ad-
vantage of their opportunities and
have enriched themselves with tho
very chances which the Texans have
SO long overlooked.

A SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT.
The DOcsorss However, Give No Hopes fo,
 Mrs. Harrison's Recovery.

The Doctors, However, Give No Hopes fol
 Mfrs. Harrison's Recovery.
 LOON LAKE HOUSE, N. Y., Sep. 16. = On the whole, it may be said there is a slight improvement in the condition of Mrs. Harrison to-day. It must also be said that it is only of 8 temporary char acter. She passed 8 restless night, and for the last two weeks comfortable night has been the exception with her. How ever, she was not more tired than usual when she awoke from her last nap, and this indicates that the invalid has fairl, well held her own.
 Mrs. Harrison continues to consume the regular amount of liquid food every two hours. As long as the liquid does not form in considerable quantity and get into the chest cavity she will not lose strength rapidly, but the tapping operation is particularly wearing, because of the nervous prostration it produces. This operation, which has been per formed twice, consists of the insertion of a needle, to which is attached 8 suction piston, between the ribs, and the with drawal of the fluid from the cavity of the pleura. Mrs. Harrison of late has taken narcotics with much difficulty, and she cannot be made insensible when the oper- ation is performed. Cocaine is used To- cally-sprayed over 8 considerable area
 of the side into which the needle is in serted,
 The consumption of the right lung is pretty firmly fixed, and in the event of the mastering of the fluid formation com plication, this disease still remains to be fought. Mrs. Harrison is not mentally
 seriously sick. The long strain and nerv- ous prostration have, of course, had the effect of exciting and disturbing her brain somewhat. When the recent com plication was making it's appearance, to- ward the end of last week, Mrs. Harrison moaned for hours in the night. continu- ally declaring how nervous she was and insisting on being taken home. Dr. Gardner will make no prediction as to the probable outcome of the disease from which his patient is suffering. Mrs. Harrison, he says, is in an extremely critical condition and further than that he will say nothing.
 Owing to the weak condition of the ! patient a journey from the Harrison cot tage to any place on the nearest railroad would be extremely difficult. The roads are extremely hilly and the water route is objectionable for other reasons.
 There is hardly possibility that Mrs. Harrison will be removed from Loon ! Lake at present unless she becomes | stronger and better in every way. \ inc uocGorS say, Il AlproNehehG shoulu set in it will be very slow, and it seems safe to say that Mrs. Harrison will not be | ready for removal from here for long \ time.
 Numerous letters and telegrams of ! sympathy with the President have been l received.
 ) -Brown Van Fleet, the S-year-old son of ! Abraham Van Fleet of Somerville, N. J., swallowed a large bean which lodged in 1 his lungs. He has suffered great pains, | and at times has been unconscious. The | case is attracting much attention among ! the doctors.

 Thousands of dollars worth of property was destroyed or damaged and four men so badly injured that it thought they will die.
 Two freight trains running at high rate os speed, collided, demolishing both engines and many cars and piling the tracks high with wreckage
 The cause of the accident is supposed to have been a result of carelessness on the part of some one in charge of the running of the trains.

CHAPTER XIV. BROWSE ISLAND.

The weather was beautiful and the sea like a mirror outside NAs line oi reefs, over which the swell broke in long lines of snow white foam, as the Molly's Hope stood out from Cape Leveque and soon left the Australian coast behind her, growing fainter and fainter until it had faded to a mere blue line on the horizon. Everything prom ised favorable cruise arross to Java island. The fact IS the steamer was on her way home except that there would be some delays to enable Capt. Willis to examine the smaller islands of the Sunda group.
 Nothing of any importance occurred the first few days out. The greatest vigilance was exercised in signaling the location of those reefs and shoals so common in these waters, many of which hardly reach to the surface of the water.
 Towards nine o'clock on the morring of February z, there was a cry from the lookout:
 Reefs ahead on the port side!"
 As they were not visible to anyona on deck, Zach French sprang up into the shrouds to take look at the lay of the reefs himself. When in position to verify the report of the man at the masthead, French discovered that there was n low line of rocky formation about six miles ahead on the port quar- ter. It was strictly speaking neither . rock nor shoal, but an islet with a shelving ridge which had been sighted to the northwest. Considering the dis tance, it was safe to assume that this was an isle of some extent If the visi ble line was that of it's width.
 In a few moments Zach French re turned and made his report to Capt, Willis, who gave the order to change the steamers course so as to bring he1

nearer Jnls IEIanu.
 Upon taking the midday observation, Capt. Willis found the position of his vessel to be IA degrees or seconds south latitude and 1S3 degrees 1S seconds longitude east from Greenwich which was duly entered in the log. This point having been fixed upon the ships chart, it was found to coincide with the location of an island desig- mated by modern geographers as Browse island and situated about two hundred and fifty miles from York sound on the Australian coast.
 As this island lay very little out of his course, Capt. Willis determined to coast around it, but without any intention of making stop. An hour later the Mol ly's Hope had run up to within mile of Browse island.
 There was rather 8 heavy sea run ming and dashing noisily against the northeast point of the island, which it kept enveloped in the mist of the break CTS. Nor was it possible to form close estimate of the size of the island, as Capt. Willis had not come full upon it, but enough could be seen of it's con- formation to show it to be an undulat- ing plateau without any considerable rise of ground. But as he had no time to lose Capt. Willis was about to give the order to go ahead again full speed, which had been somewhat slackened down when Zach French called his at tention to something on the point of the island.
 ''Look, captain," said he, isn't that a mast standing on that point?' The boatswain indicated the direc- tion of the cape which jutted out to the northwest and terminated in rocky crest with perpendicular face
