HUBBARD TO SPEAK.
The Eloquent Tylerite Agrees to Help
Waco Entertain Visitors.

When President r gyms, of the
Waco Commercial club, saw by the
morning paper that Hon. K. B.
Hubbard, of Tyler, was in the city,
the idea struck him Immediately,
and hard
He called upon Mr.. Hubbard at
an early hour and told him of the
Q crowd that is to be in Waco on
Dec mber h, and asked that elo.
quent gentleman if he would not
come as Wlco's guest and make a
speech to her visitors. Gov Hub.
bard cheerful Y consented to do so,
and, unless something now unfore
seen intervenes, those who visit
Waco on December 9Th will be
treated to one of Gen. Hubbard's
most eloquent orations, for, eloquent
at all times, he is particularly so
when engaged in discussion of the
wonderful resources of the state, or
any part thereof
Pce'ident Higgins is to be CON

1t has at last transpired that truth is
triumphant. In the past an editor or
publisher had no legal right to plead in
justification of an alleged libel that she
subject matter was true. If Bill Jones
stole sheep, the newspaper had no right
to say that he did SO in such way as to
offend hissensitive feelings, even though
the fact could be proven. The recent
Legislature, has, however, improved
upon the old order of things, and a
newspaper can say if it chooses that the
"sore-eyed, sap. headed, bow-legged,
hump-backed idiot who pretends to edit
the patent-medicine poster across the
way hasn't had his annual bath for
seven years." and all he has to do is to
prove it, and dodge the other fellow and
his shot gun.

SINGULAR TRADITION :
Tho Bella Coola Story OF the NoachIaa
Deluge.

Tho Bella Coola Story OF the Noachia4
Deluge.
All the Northern Coast Indians, says
the Victoria (B. C.) Colonist, have
tradition of food which destroyed all
mankind except pair from which the
earth was again peopled. Each tribe
gives the story local coloring, but the
plot of the legend is much the same.
The Bella Coola tradition is as follows:
The Creator of the Universe, Mes-mes-
sa-la-nik, had great difficulty in the ar
rangement of the land and water. The
earth persisted in sinking out of sight
At last he hit upon plan which worked
very we'll Taking long line of twist
ed walrus hide he tied it around the dry
land and fastened the other end to the
corner Of the moon. Everything worked
well for long time, but at last the
spirit became very much offended at
the action of mankind, and in fit of
anger one day seized his great stone
knife and with a mighty hack severed
the rope of twisted skin. Immediately
the land began to sink into the sea.
The angry waves rushed in torrents up
the valleys, and In a short time nothing
was visible except the peak of a very
high mountain.
All mankind perished in the whelm-
ing waters with the exception OF two,
a man and his wife, who were out fish
ing in a big canoe. These two succeed
ed in reaching the top of the mountain
and proceeded to make themselves at
home. Here they remained for some
time until the anger of Mes-mes-sa-
la-nik cooled, which resulted in his
fishing up the severed throng and again
fastening it to the moon. From this
pair thus saved the earth was again
populated. In later years an Indian
succeeded in reaching the top of this
mountain, and there saw the remains
of the fishing gear and implements used
by the Bella Coola Noah.

Mortality Among Men and Women.


Life tables have been compiled from
the mortality returns of various periods
of time showing that at birth the ex-
pectation of life covers more years in
the case of the female than in that of
the male. These tables also show that
at succeeding ages the female lead is
maintained. But the London Morning
Post has made tabulation that will
interest others than scientists, statisti-
clans and life insurance agents, and
which, though the data are not very
extensive, goes to confirm the results
reached in the so-called standard life
tables. That journal has compiled all
the cases of notable longevity recorded
in its own columns during the year 1892.
OF 1,151 octogenarians 648 are women
and only sos are men. Above 80 at
nearly all ages the returns continue to
favor the women; and of six. centena-
rians all but one are women. This does
not prove that women are happier than
men, but 1t is good indication that, as
a rule, they live longer. And, though
the most reasonable presumption Is that
this is because they enjoy an easier lie
than men, the average woman win
doubtless continue to wish that she had
been born q ms1a.

At ministerial meeting in Ports.
mouth, the pastors OF the churches
passed resolutions for publication com.
mending Judge Dever for his vigorous
measures toward the enforcement of the
liquor traffic. While they had right
to do this, and their purpose was the
very best, we would not doubt that
Judge Dever was rather embarrassed
than strengthened by it. By those who
do not know him, this action may tend
to place him in the attitude of using his
official position to champion the church,
whereas, he is simply enforcing the law
as he finds it, regardless OF saint or sin.
ner. This pastoral endorsement may
inspire feeling OF resentment on the
part of many who are over sensitive con-
cerning the exact boundaries OF pro-
priety between church anG state, and
thus arouse antagonisms against the
Judge which would not otherwise exist.
A Just Judge is worthy of commenda-
tion, but, would it not be better that
endorsements should be OF an individual
character, rather than to come as the
voice of.the church?

It's great thing with some people to
be English, you know" This was
evidenced by the efforts of the New
York hotel men and restaurateurs to
follow the English Iced and compel their
walters to appear without mustaches.
A strike was the consequence. New
York is in spirit a foreign city anyhow,
and there are hundreds of thousands
there who care no more for the stars and
stripes than they would for dirty dish
rag. At the time of the secession of
southern States New York city had an
ordinance OF secession prepared and it
would have been adopted, but for the
prompt action of President Lincoln in
calling for troops and the wild wave OF
patriotism that swept the North. New
York was warned of her danger, and
the ordinance was not presented Tor
consideration. We glory in the pluck OF
the walters, and, from our vantage
ground, far beyond the range of gun.
shot, we wave aloft the star spangled
banner and urge the gallant walters to
never give up the battle until they have
achieved mustaches or death.
