DEAR SIR We have matters in
splendid shape. The house sub com.
mite have agreed upon bill which
locates the new courts at Tyler,
Waco and San Antonio. The house
general committee will meet tomorrow
night to act on the sub committee
report. 1t is of highest importance
that sub committee report be adop ed I,
and we are working to that end. The
general committee is composed O..
nineteen members, twelve of whom
arc for US, and we are trying to get it
as near unanimous as possible.
The people of Waco don't seem to
appreciate what We have and are now
doing.
When we came here everybody
laughed at the idea tf Waco
getting court. Now by skilful
management, we have placed Waco
at the top-so much go that every
place trying to get court is offering
to JOIN with Waco. San Antonio,
Tyler and Waco are pulling together
and the strength of the three places,
if kept together, amounts to three.

have lost money by being away from
home, as my oftice is closed. This is
the feeling of other members of the
committee here. We have done more
than our duty.
If We fail, the responsibility will rest
with home people, Yours,

LONGEST RAILWAY IN THE WORLD.
The Cars Great Project for Steam
Travel Across siberia.

The proposed trans siberian railway.
which will be the longest in the world,
is fully described in the Engineering
Magazine. by Frederic Hobart. who has
used freely materials furnished by the
Russian engineers employed on the
work
As TO the commercial importance of
the Siberian railway, he writes, there
may be different opinions. The stepp
of western Siberia are susceptible OF
settlement and cultivation. and may add
q considerable area to the wheat neids
which compete with those of America.
The river valleys of the Amour region
are also capable of cultivation, and may
in time support large population,
while the Oussouri country is known 10
be rich in coal and iron. The long
stretch of over one thousand five hun
dred miles from Tomsk TO the head
waters Of Amour however. can never
have much local traffic. The climate
and soil alike forbid settlement and a
small business in horses and cattle from
the nomad herds and in lumber from
the forests of the Irish and the western
trans-Baikal, with the supply OF the
mining regions on the slopes of the
JablOnnOVOi will be the most that can
be expected. Through commercial traf-
fic TO the Pacific can not be large
though the Chinese trade will be an
item of considerable Importance on the
western half OF the line, and is a traf-
fic capable Of development with the ia
cilities which could be furnished by the
proposed railroad. With all allowances
for growth. however, il is safe to say
that, if the road is regarded simply as
an investment for capital, its CONNER
cial prospects would not warrant its
construction for many years to come.
The main purpose of the line is not
commercial however. but military and
political. The trans-Caspain railway
has consolidated and made permanent
the Russian power in central Asia. and
its extension TO khOkand and Tashkend,
now well under way, will make an ex-
cellent supply line for an army invading
China from the west. The Siberian line
on the other side will be a base line for
operations from the north and east, and
the ancient empire will be placed at a
serious disadvantage. The shrewdest of
the Chinese statesmen are aware of this.
and their efforts to strengthen their
northern frontier are in contrast to the
supineneSs OF the English who seem
now, as usual, to rely altogether on
their naval force to check the designs of
their greatest rival in the East
1t IS undoubtedly a perception of
these possibilities which has made the
project a favorable one in the imperial
circle, and brought about the conditions
necessary to secure its early execution
/ The official order calls for the COM
pletion OF the entire road in 1894 and
while it seems hardly possible that the
work can be completed in ten years
with the means at hand. there is little
doubt that the opening decade of the
/ twentieth century will see the COM
pletion of the first trans-Asiatic rail-
, road.

Also they are the cause of the course,

appointing kinds Of bread that often
torment the breadmakers who use these
'raisings."
Pure yeast produces sweet, nutty fla
vored bread. From the fact that com
pressed yeast" is the purest yeast scien-
tific research has yet discovered. and
that il is Impossible by mechanical skill
10 crowd a greater number or yeast
germs into a given space than are
crowded into a cake Of ii, it seems sure
that this form of ferment is the best
known today for breadmakins purposes.
In compressed yeast fermentation IL
is the decomposition Of the starch IN
the flour that produces the gas that dis
tends or hghtens the dough. In all 9TH
er raisings il is the gluten that suffers.
And as starch is the most plentiful and
least valuable portion of the flour
economical food considerations alone
should induce the use Of pure yeast In
preference to any of the other ferments.
The Vienna bakers, who for 200 years
have had the reputation Of being the
best breadmakers in the world, now use
one ounce Of the best compressed yeast
to each quart of wetting in the prepare
ton of their bread dough. and have new

proportions.

BRUIX WENT THE PACE.
Cross and Abusive When i'm His Caps,
but lie Meant Wei.

Big jackson is dead, and as a result
the heart of King McManus is bowed
down beneath the weight of unutterable
Woe Jackson was only big, shaggy
black bear but he was a hale fellow in
his way, and there is not man in all
the Petrero who could cope with him
when it came 10 drinking whisky. He
could drink from morning till night go
rolling to his bed in the corner of the
yard and get up in the morning fresh
ever. From his youth he was a rollick-
ing blade, with a good dash Of the Boz
hemian in his makeup, and early in life
he started TO travel the pace that kills.
His friends had foreseell Tor a long time
that there could be but one end to it all.
and when Jackson succumbed to the
grim destroyer Saturday they shook
their heads knowingly and said with one
accord Il told you So"
Sunstroke was the immediate cause of
his death, but alcoholism reared its
hideous head behind il all. Dissipation
had Slapped the strength of once robust
constitution, and on Saturday came the
end As usual, jackson was in his cups
During the forenoon he poured whisky
into his stomach in liberal quantities and
the consequence was that by the noon
hour he was very drunk. Then he be-
came ugly and boisterous, as was his
wont when drinking, and he was thrust
out in the small back yard to sleep OF
the effects of his potations. The day
was hot and Jackson's blood was aflre
from whisky. He lay in the sun for some
time in a drunken stupor, am when
evening came he was dead. Sunstroke
the doctor said, and his life must have
gone out hours before they found him.
When il was found that Jackson was
dead, King McManuS was sent for.
He had been the latter's favorite for
years. and il was deemed fitting that
the Monarch of Petrero should be given
the opportunity to show the last honors
TO his pet.
Give him the best send-Off you can,
boys" was the kings admonitiOn, and
don't spare any expense Jackson was a
thoroughbred and nothing is too good for
him. Send the bill to me-"
And so McManus' followers gathered
in 10 attend the rites. There was a wake
such as only the PetrerO knows, and
when ii was all over the body of jack
son was laid to rest in grave dug for
him on the top of irish hill, overlooking
the scene of many a jolly carousal. Nor
was there any lack of mourners. Jack
son had made a host of friends in his
dissipated career, and they stood by his
graveside TO do him such honor as they
could
I'VE planted him Just like human
being" said one syfnpathizer. And why
shouldn't we? He wasn't the best bear
in the world, for he drank like a fish
and was often cross and abusive, but he
meant well, and he never played 1t low

PRINCESS MAYS TEXTILE DESIGN.
New style Of Goods which VIII Have
"A Great Run in England.

Her royal highness the Duchess of
Teck and Princess May have given
permission that the new May blossom
design shall henceforth be known as
the royal May blossom" in order to
protect ii from nefarious limitations
which ever follow in the wake of sue
cess. 1t is pleasing TO learn that
French firm have ordered quantity Of
this silk, which is being woven for
them on English looms. and for which
they have paid a royalty, TO be devoted
to a charitable institution chosen by
the royal bride-elect. Negotiations are
pending with a celebrated Irish firm
for the reproduction of royal May
blossom poplin. so that already the
benefit TO British industries through
this design, specially and directly pa
tronized by the Duchess of Teck ard
Princess May, promises to be wide
spread. Ii is also likely to be brought
into use in the manufacture of bllbrig-
gan stockings. which will probably be
embroidered with the royal May bios
som" pattern. The Duchess of Teck
and Princess May are intensely pleased
with the gratifying result of their kind
efforts in favor Of reviving the English
silk trade, and of the special patrona ge
given by them to this new design. Ad-
Vances have also been made by Amer
lean traders for a supply Of the silk as
being associated with their national
"Mayhower,' 10 which they cling more
ardently now that it is the emblem ac-
cepted in Britain of the fair young
princess so soon TO become the bride Of
the direct heir to the throne In dark
blue and red the guards have adopted
the new design enthusiastically, and use
ii not only for ties but for facings for
smokings coats. 1t is highly proba BILE
that in this coloring. the royal May
blossom will be reserved specially for
members of the royal family and the
guards.-London Telegraph.

The Mothers Nature.

Sacrifice appears to be the predominant
ing element IN mothers nature. She is
willing to deprive herself of actual neces-
stiles for the sake Of giving to her
children, and when taxed by others with
the too great self-denial will plead as
her excuse that it is for the children.
Parents save and skimp themselves of
many comforts, they toll from morning
until night with but one object in view
the future happiness of the sons and
daughters God has given them, and in
how many cases does their sacrifice re
suit in fostering in the hearts and
minds of those for whom they slave a
selhShneSS that causes them to accept all
that is done for them as their due and
complain because greater favOrs are not
in the power of the parents to bestow2
We know how the great mother heart
has no boundary in its loving desires and
earnest wishes for life's best gifts TO be
showered upon the children that lisp
her name, but, after all, is this continual
SubiugatiOn of self the best training for
those that are in time to be turned loose
upon the world and fight there the battle
for daily bread and earthly preference2
The children who have been accuS-
toned to get all that they desired. even
though they crippled the purse Of father
and mother in the accomplishment Of their
wishes, will find that the great world is
not SO willing 10 bend To their slightest
whim, and strangers are not prone To
give up the best places and greatest
good TO them as mother and father have
always done.
Life will be much harder for them if
they have been spoiled at home, and the
selfish nature which has been encouraged
there will materially work against them
when they come in contact with all sorts
and conditions of men. Remember this,
all We dear, kind-hedrted fathers and
mothers. when YOU next feel tempted to
forego some personal benefit and plead
that the sacrifice is made for the sake Of
the children.-N. Y. Commercial Adver-
