The practical effect of Judge Won
Rosenberg's Sunday law decision, it
is feared, will be privilege to utmost
license il saloon men so decide. Their
own common sense and decency and
respect for those who claim Sunday
as a day for church observances alone
must hold them in check so far as the
county court and it's officers are con-
cerned. 1t is understood, however,
that even if saloon men are left wholly
uninterfered with by any Of the
authorities, that an effort will be
made to have them agree to close their
doors from 8 a. M. to A p. M, as
YVES the old custom in Difference the
Sabbath. surely at least that respect
should be shown the Holy day, and it
will be far best for the saloon men in
the long run if it is so shown.

QUARANTINE RAISED.
As Imposed by Governor Hogg Against
Certain Points.

Whereas, 1t has been made known
to me that there is no longer neces-
sity for general quarantine,
Now, therefore, 1, j. =. Hogg, gov
ernor of the state of Texas, do by
virtue of the authority vested in me
by the constitution and laws of this
state, hereby revoke my proclamation
of April 8, A. d. 1893, imposing certain
conditions upon all vessels from ports
and places south of 25 degrees north
latitude and entering the ports of this
state after May l, 1893, to take effect
on and after the 18th day of Novem.
Der, A.. D. 1893; provided, that said
portion of said proclamation applying
to the entrance into Texas ports OF
vessels infected by contagious dis.
eases, such as smallpox, cholera and
yellow fever, or having had either OF
said named diseases on shipboard
within a period of 20 days before such
arrival at said Texas ports,
shall remain in full force; and
all such vessels are hereby prohibited
from landing persons or things at any
town or place on the gulf coast of the
state Of Texas until permission to do

Tennessee bore upon the resistless
tide of their eloquence the thoughts
and passions of the masses, but both
died with the public verdict OF self
indulgence upon their tombs. Who
can tell how they may have been
shaken by the sweep of their
great thoughts and they resorted to
the fiery liquid of intozication to calm
the wild surges of their high strung
nerves and snatch an hour of nepen-
the rom the torrent of genius that
overflowed their great souls. The
world is better and greater for genius,
even If it wrecks its fatal possessor.
Genius is not desirable by the iDdi-
vidual, for it comes with responsibili-
ties too great for their feeble frames to
bear. Genius caught the spark OF d.
vinity and lOlled back the curtain
that hung between the human and
d. vine presence, and with it's pro.
phetic ken opened the eyes of the
blind 10 the glorious scenes of eternity,
but talent has kept the light burning
so constantly and luminously that
we look into the eyes of our Maker
and are touched with the spirit OF
His forgiving love. The world may
wsll exclaim: "Genius, genius,
great God, we thank thee"

IT is stated that Mr.. Mills said that
Mr.. Sherman hit the mark when he
said the Democrats are responsible
Yes, they are responsible, but it will
not tighten the penalty. they will have
to pay to the people Tor them to take
such action as will drive off their Re-
publican allies in their effort TO repeal
the silver purchasing act. If the
country goes to the damnation bow
vows the Democrats are responsible
for it. But for the alliance of Coke
and other Democratic senators with
Teller and his crowd there would not
have been any danger and we would
be sailing along now serenely and
happily.

COMPULsION,
Not a Matter Of Choice With Us.

The tinar clal situation of the coun.
try remains unchanged. This is
largely due TO the failure of congress
to act on the repeal bill. Merchants
of this country cannot obtain money
from the banks. Farmers are holding
their cotton for advanced prices.
Notes and bills are falling due and
what are we to do but suffer a loss OF
profits? Honor forbids us allowing
our paper protested. We can't sub.
NIT to having our doors closed by the
sheriff. What is left but to submit to
a sacrifice of our goods and offer them
to you for what they cost us. We can
truthfully say that our stock of cloth.

THE LUNATYC ASYLUl'S FIRE DE-
PARIMENT.

Those interested in the safety OF
friends and relatives who are SO unfor
tunate as to become inmates of the
lunatic asylum at Austin can feel per-
fectly easy now since the asylum has
perfected its fire department. 1t
would be impossible under the present
perfect and thorough system for fire
to gain any Roadway in any of the
buildings of the asylum. The stand
pipe, which is an architect raj orna-
ment from every distant view of the
asylum, contains $4,000 gallons Of
water, sufficient to supply four streams
all day long, but the artesian we'll is
utilized to keep the standpipe
full, however much may be
drawn from it. The engines
have pressure of so pounds
and in two minutes after an alarm OF
fire is sounded the fire brigade, COM
posed of employees of the asylEm, can
have four full streams of water in play
on any part of the buildings. These
streams can be thrown over any build
ing, in fact the pressure is so great
that The water is thrown 80 feet and
way above the highest building.
The improvement in making the
asylum independent of the water and
light company was necessary and
economical. At the fire by which one
of the buildings was entirely destroy
ed some time last year, a full pres
sure on the water company's pipes
failed to supply sufficient water and
in few minutes an accident to the
mains occurred that deprived them
of water, and the building had to
be abandoned to the destruction
of the fire. 1t cost the state $4,000 to
rebuild. There is, perhaps, no fire
department in the state better
equipped for fighting fires nor more
thoroughly organized than the one at
the Lunatic asylum. The engineer,
Mr.. White, fully understands his bust.
ness, and the men answer his call with
the promptitude and alacrity that can
not be obtained in city. The prop.
erty of the state in the Lunatic asy.
lum buildings is perfectly secure and
the lives of the inmates perfectly safe,
all rumors to the contrary notwith-
standing.

CAN this mornings dispatches be
believed? Is it so that the senate mi
nority has at last consented to let the
majority get down to business? If so
we think that the minority has only
yielded because it knew Hill, Palmer
and Voorhees, were collecting enough
strength together to take them by the
throat and compel them to yield. For
a minority that would make such q
fight as those anti.repeal senators
have, are not amenable to the argu.
ments of reason but only the strong
persuasion of brute force. 1t was the
fear Of cloture that has wrought the
wondrous result.

like to know in what respect Cham

any other. We will tell you. When
this remedy is taken as soo1 as cold

the only remedy that will do this. 1t
acts in perfect harmony with nature
and aids nature in relieving the lungs,
opening the secretions, liquefying the
mucus and causing its expulsion from
the air cells of the lungs and restoring
the system to strong and health
condition. No other remedy in the

THE Atlanta Constitution, when it
declares that Mr.. Mills of Texas, an
nounces that he will be guided by
John Sherman and fling party discip-
line and party harmony to the winds

truthful Grady. Heretofore they
heve mourned for him as man and
the loss of his talent to the Constitu-

weakness.
At the appearance of the first symp.

each meal. This remedy strikes at
once at the very root of the disease

the convulsions which are sure
to follow if the poisons
are allowed to remain. 1t
gives great vigor to the hearts action
and digestive system, both of which

It's house-cleaning time.
Every one tired and cross 4;
every thing out of place and
wrong end foremost. No time
to fool away in cooking; no
fire, probably; no appetite,
perhaps no comfort, certainly.
No Pear1ine - that's the
cause of it. A little Pearline,
when you're cleaning house,
makes the whole thing smooth
and easy. With anything
about the house that isn't hurt
by water, you can save time
and hard work by using
Pearline. You won't have
to use that rub, rub, rub, in
getting the dirt off. And that
saves other things, your paint,
for instance.

The Points of n Good Cow.

The head of an extremely good COW
should be small, as the best mixers are
fine boned; it should also be long and
'cut up" under the neck, with a dishing
face. The neck should be thin and
comparatively long. The hips should
be high. The hind legs Of the COW that
is best for dairy purposes should be
somewhat crooked, and it was here that
breeders in making selections often
made mistakes by preferring cattle with
a leg quite straight up and down be
hind. There should be slight sag TO
the belly, but the animal should be on
the whole a little wedge-shaped from
back to 'front.' the hips being higher
than the shoulder and the line from
belly to brisket inclining upward. The
tails of dairy cattle are generally OF
pretty good length, with a considerable
taper. 1t is important in selecting for
breeding that all these points should be
known, 1t being impossible to make the
best purchases by symmetry alone.
There are four points that should be
specially studied, and which serve in
fallible indications Of milking qualities.
First, the milk veins, so-called, passing
from the forward side of the animal
toward the front. They are either
small or large, straight or crooked.
Consider the size of these veins, for the
size is one of the infallible tests of
good mixer Be careful to see whether
the vein is double or not for it some
times branches cut, and if double, the
two should be added together, because
they may be equal to one large vein.
The veins sometimes form an angle on
the front side of the udder. This sell
dom occurs, except on a very good cow.
On calves and fleshy cattle ii is difficult
to find the veins, therefore the test can
only be applied to COWS in milking con-
perineum is a good test and indicates
milk The chine, reaching from the
shoulder half way to the hip, should be
examined. If it be double the COW is
above the average. Sometimes with a
single chine is a depression into which
two fingers can be laid, if the animal is
not too fat This is good. 1t indicates
a lax physical condition of the animal,
and this is favorable either for milk or
beef.
