An evening with intellectual
harmony can always be enjoyed
at Scholz's pavilion and concert

such as Auber, Straus, Rossini, ETC.,
often are encored, while the over
dure Clad" dining gardens are
filled with visitors who enjoy the
cool surroundings and partake OF

More Border Violators.

Deputy United States Marshal
O'Donall arrived in the city today,
from Laredo, having in custody
Francisco Gonzales, an alleged
violator of the United States neu-
trality laws. Gonzales was placed
in the county jail to await the &C
tion Of the federal grand jury.
There are not many Cara revOlu-
tiOnists now in the Bexar county
Jail, but the border officers are
busily engaged in scouting for
them, and by the time the court
convenes, it is probable there will
be large number awaiting trial.

THE NEGRO"
As it Was Then, Now. and Will Be

As it Was Then, Now, and Will Be.
The opinion OF Editor Harbert, IN the
Weekly TongueIetl
1t was once the damn big mouth
slew footed "Dutchman" and "the
Christ killing, big nosed jew" by
the proud impulsive southern
white man, but the characteristic,
"keep quiet and saw wood" tactics
of these wonderfully industrious
people,-being now the back bone
and sinew of every state in the
country, successfully carry
ing on the largest man
ufacturing, mercantile and
industrial establishments in every
city-have driven from the lips
and minds Of their deriders, these
opprobrious epithets, and in their
stead, we hear nothing but the ten
derest, kindest, and the most hon.
orable expressions. Their sons
topple over each other, seeking the
hand, in marriage, of their daugh-
tiers, the Germans, and their
daughters congratulate them
selves upon successfully weaving
the connubial web,with which their
sons are made prodigals to their pa
rental thresholds. If people had de-
sired it, they could have exclaimed,
"What shall we do with the Ducth-
man and the Jew" "HOw can we
solve the German or Jew prob
lem?" just as it is Intercepted
from every platform, pulpit and
journal in the country about the
Negro. The Germans and the
Jews have solved in this country
the question beyond any discussion
in regards to themselves, and solv-
ed it themselves. Their social,
moral, financial and political
status is never, now under
unfavorable discussion. 1t is bad
policy to get their ill will, for they
are power, hence their friendship
is rather cOurted. While we do not
set forth that the Negro will ever
be, on social lines, accepted as the
German has been by the white peo-
pie of this country-marrying into
his families, etc.,-(he does not
wish or expect this,) we do claim,
that if he wisely adopts the methods
of the Germans and the Jews in
acquiring large property, conduct
ing successful business enterprises
of every kind, supplemented by
normal development in morality
and mentality, he too will be truly
happy over putting the quietus on
the unfriendly criticisms to which
he is continually subject. In short, |
he will be happy in solving his own
problem and the public will be far |
richer and more prosperous by his
contributions as with the national
tiles named.

A remarkable list of royal perquisites
might be made out, and it is very evident
that our gracious sovereign does not re
ceive in the annual course of events one
tenth of the articles to which she is enti-
tied She might not know what to do
with them, but that is another matter.
There should be, for example, coming in
every year tablecloth worth 3 shillings,
two white doves, two white hares, cata-
pult, pound of cumin seed, horse and
halter, one pair of scarlet hose, Il curry
comb, Il pair of tongs, a crossbow, a coat of
gray fur, nghtcap worth "A halfpenuy, a
lance worth . shillings falcon, silver
needle from the royal tailor and one very
good and one very bad knife
Such are IA few OF the numerous and
whimsical perqrlstes once claimed by the
sovereign, another curious one mentioned
by ancient writers being that when whale
was captured on the coasts it was to be di-
vided between the king and the qneen the
former taking the head and the latter the
tail. The reason of this division was stat
ed to be that the queens wardrobe might
be furnished With whalebone for the due
stitIeniug of the royal garments.
Whales do not frequent these parts to
any great extent nowadays, but every stur-
geon brought to land belongs by right to

A Gigantic Wooden Statue.

In the Japanese capital there is a gigantic
image of "A woman, made of wood and plas-
ter, and dedicated to Hachiman the god of
war. In height it measures "a feet, the
head alone, which is reached by winding
stairway in the interior of the figure, being
large enough TO comfortably hold 20 per-
sons. The figure holds huge wooden sword
in one hand, the blade of the weapon being
q feet long, and ball IL feet in diameter in
the other. Internally the model is fitted up
with an extraordinary anatomical arrange
ment, which is supposed to represent the
different portions of the brain. A fine view
of the country is obtained by looking
through one of the eyes of the figure. The
admission to all parts of the structure is 9
cents.-Tokio Letter.

OIL of Eggs.

Extraordinary stories are told of the heal

made from the yolk of hens eggs The
eggs are first boiled hard, and the yolks are
then removed, crushed and placed over a
fire, where they are carefully stirred until
the substance is on the point of catching
fire, when the oil separates and may be
poured off One yolk will yield nearly two
teaspoonfuls of oil. 1t is in general use
among the colonists of south Russia as a
means of curing cuts, bruises, etc.-St

Wampole's
Tasteless
Preparation
OF
Cod Liver Oil.

1t aims to cure Consumption,
HITS the Mark, too, and it most
effectually breaks up Colds,
Coughs, Hoarseness and all
Throat and Lung troubles that
cause this disease.
1t is natural logic to conclude
that if WAMPoLE's PREPARATION
OF COP LIVER OIL has power
to prevent Consumption, it surely
is able to cure these lesser emer-
gencies.
This vigor-making, fat-produc
ing preparation is Absolutely
Tasteless, in so far as Cod Liver
Oil is concerned. All you notice
is a delightful flavor of Wild
Cherry and Anise.
But the purest Norwegian Cod
Liver Oil is there all the same.
1t is great blood enricher. Best
of all it is a natural food that in its
stomachic effects actually assists
its own assimilation.
In Pulmonary or Bronchia
troubles it is unequalled. No
one doubts the value of Cod Liver
Oil, but not every one is able to
take it.

Oil palatable.
