True Energy.

Energy is an affair of the mind. 1t
springs from an interest in life, and
Il manly determination to make the
most of it. There Is a spacious form
of energy which consists In Il puerile
and impatient determination to do
or be something. Little good comes
to this false strength of purpose. En-
ergy has rather to do with the details
of an effort than its end. Hope may
dwell on the future, but energy Crap
pies with the present. 1t shows itself
III Il disciplined and persistent strug-
Cling against obstacles, an unwearied
endeavor to push forward the task in
hand. ltis important to make this
distinction we are trying to indi-
cate. Many a young man has Il de-
termination rs to the end for which
he is striving, but lacks the power to
fight the difficulties he encounters on
the way. Energy does not concern
itself with the end Just as soldier
does not busy himself with the battle
as Il whole, but concentrates every
thought on the discharge of his per-
sonal duty-the duty of the moment.
SO should it be with energy. The man
who would make success of life
SnONllu DltCC every HtINt W bnc
struggle and enterprise, and see that
the business of the day is done with
his might. Some persons are said to
be constitutionally full of energy;
rs matter of experience this often
means that they are perpetually in
II fussy state of activity. This is not
energy of the sort that makes life
vigorous or useful. True energy is
generally quiet and self-contained,
just as u strong will is commonly calm
in its expression and associated with
Il certain reserve of character that
makes it almost mysterious in its SUI
premacy. Those who would get on
III life must cultivate energy; and it is
we'll to see that it takes the form of
solid and restrained strength, the
force that will make circumstances
bend to the will instead of yielding to
them, that will pass strength forward
rather than dart of, a. though by in.
spiration, in wrong direction, or wear
itself out in a single burst.

The County Poor.

The county poor farm is an instit
tuition that is managed in such mann
ner as to be highly satisfactory to the
people. The present county super
intendents of the poor are: Nelson
Roberts, chairman; Friend Palmer,
secretary, and Martin Stapleton, and
to them is due the credit for the sue
cessful and economical management
of county poor matters. Fred Keopf-
gen and wife are still in charge Of the
Farm and are looking we'll after the
interests of the people and the inmates
of which ut present there are so.
During the past year there have
been four deaths and two bivths in
the county house.. Over 700 people
have found refuge in this institution
since 1865. At the last meeting of the
supervisors $4,000 was appropriated
for supporting the poor of the county
for the year, but this amount will not
be sufficient, as $4,000 has already
been expended. 1t will probably take
S2l 900 to pay the bills for the year.
In some townships supervisors are
giving orders to large number OF
people. Section 1872 of Howell's
statutes says that n supervisor cannot
give to any one family more than $50
during the year without an order, yet
many of them are doing so.

Opposition.

The man or the organization that
has merit and capacity for good is
helped by certain amount of opposi-
ton. Large birds rise against the
wind, not with it. 4 fine ship makes
little progress in u dead calm. 4 stiff
breeze purities the atmosphere, sup
plying lite-giving principles. Man
never shows his latent force until
opposition faces his darling schemes.
Hardship is the native soil of man
hood and self-reliance. He who cam
not abide the storm without fiinching,
or fight for the right against the
legions i'll opposition, is not made of
stuff that commands success. Fair
weather men, those who prosper only
in the sunshine and under Il cloudless
sky, must resign the leadership TO
those of sterner qualities whom OPP
position strengthens and whom the
sight of the foe only nerves to brave
deeds.

MR.. INGALLS, SARCASM.

Kansas City, as "Mr. Grover Cleve-

City Star thus comments upon;

Illustrated last night in his reference to
Mr.. Cleveland: "There is the presi.

Ingalls, was doubtless much encour-
aged by his brilliant sally. No man
has more reason to "believe" in Mr..
Cleveland than this same Mr.. Ingalls,
He has seen the president rise supe'
rior to the bitterest attacks ever made
on public man. He has seen him
defeated through popular misunder-
standing in 1883, vindicated four years
later by the most extraordinary re.
vulsion of popular sentiment. He has
seen him sway a party, create and
force an issue, and gain and retain
the confidence and respect of the peo-
pie by honesty OF personal charac
ter and integrity and earnestnes'
of political motive. And he ha:
seen him triumphant when al
his deiamers and detractors, including
the mirth provoking Mr. Ingalls, him
self, have been banished from power
and discredited by their own imme-

No protest against Mr. Ingal s. re

Killed and Robbed.
Special t. The Statesman.
CORPUS CHRISTI, Dec. ia hor-
rible murder has just been unearthed
on the O'Connor ranch in San Patricio
county, three miles above Sharpsburg.
An old Mexican tenant on the ranch
has been missing for several weeks
past and yesterday his body was found
almost devoured by coyotes. The
skull had been crushed and the body
had been covered over with little
dirt and cactus brush. Suspicion
rested on two Mexicans and they " ere
at once arrested. They denied their
guilt, but after the younger of the two
had been strung to limb he acknowl.
edged the whole, and told how he had
choked the old man until he revealed
where $50 was deposited, after which
his companion knocked the old man III
the head with an ak. The old man
lived alone and was hard working
Mexican. After the murderers had
completed their work they dragged
the body some 200 or 800 yards in the
brush, where it was found. There
was strong talk of lynching the muir
derers, but cooler judgment finally
prevailed and the law will be allowed
to take its course. The names of the
parties could not be learned.

Domestic Happiness.
Special to The.statesman.
DALLAS, Dec. 15.-Thomas L. James,
who was shot and killed last night by
E. j. Reeves, was buried today from
the hone of his father. The slayer, E.
j. Reeves, was taken before Justice j.
w. Shelton today. He waived exam.
ination and was remanded without
bail. The evidence taken at the in
quest shows that James was unarmed
and that the wound in Reeves left
wrist was accidentally made by him
self; also that James did not threaten
Reeves life. However it is shown
that Reeves wife and James were in
innate and that compromising letters
wero written by the woman to James.
His life paid the forfeit and the chances
are that Reeves will escape punish
ment. The woman admits writing the
letters to James which caused the kill
ing, and says she left her husband
when he raised fuss about it, Reeves
has employed lawyer to defend him.
The grand jury is at work on the case.

ness than crime. Such men ought

There is not much use in Furnishing

best they can do is to pardon him and

Reeves, his slayer, occupies cell
in the county Jail. At 1880
they met at dance at
Ed Martins on East Elm street. Reeves

had taken place. Reeves runs a

FORT WORTH, Dec. IA AT the hos
pital in this city, chained to an iron
bedstead, is Ida Johnson Wilson, a
young colored woman. This morn
ing at 6 o'clock she was attacked with
rabies and her writhing was painful
to behold. Foam and froth were emit
ted from her mouth. She barked like
dog, and had all the symptoms of a
person attacked by the rabies in the
most aggravated form. DIR. V. P.
Armstrong, city health officer, dosed
her with morphine and opium, and
she rested easy until this evening. Dr.
Armstrong says that nothing can be
done to save tine woman, that she will
die with hydrophobia within the next
"a hours.
Five weeks ago Ida was bitten on
the nose by pet dog. Last Monday
DR.. L. Elliott was called upon to pre-
scribe for her, and he ordered her sent
to the hospital. 1t was not believed
that hydrophobia would develop, but
the physicians were mistaken, for this
morning the woman acted like a
maniac, and when glass Of water was
proffered her she foamed at the mouth
and became almost raving maniac.
Her relatives, after the dog had bitten
the woman, cut off the tail of the ami
NAL and applied it to the wound. The
medical scientists of this city are Civ
ing the case a great deal of attention,
and are noting each Lew symptom OF
the case.
