PrOspecting for WRter.

As Fl Paso is at present experiment ing for artesiGn water, the Herald be- lieves that any news on that subject is on interest to its readers. Ore of our prominent citizens while down in east ern Texas few days ago, met Colonel Hunter, Sppt. of the ThurteF mines who Is prospecting for aFtesIan water with the chances of course of strIking natural gas or petroleum. He has now red to depth of 3j50 # starting in with ten iOch hole, bat it tho present depth, is boring a seven and five eights inch hole. Ths form stiOn loose shale for the fist 1900 feet. This he had to case but from this on, he went through shale hard enough to not necessitate casing. Ills work has been done by machinery got ten Op entirely at the mines, at the cost of about S2500.
 The entire cost of the we'll to date, ex- elusive of machinery, but including IOO0 feet of casing still On hand is SS.O0O, and Col. Hunter expects bis machinery to carry him to depth of POGO feet more, to which depth he will continue unless artesian water Is reached, or the source of his machinery exhausted. The drill he uses weighs 1900 pounds, while his sand bucket weighs 600 pounds. When the sand bucket is raised from the bot tom, it is very hot; consequently Mr. Munter believes that should he strike an artesian flow 1t would be hot water.
 + El Pgso can go 30O0 feet for twice what it has cost Col. Hunter, she is to be congratulated, for without a doubt, artesian water will be reached at a less depth than tt ttat-Harald.

SPARE THE LITTLE ONES,

The custom, says the Las Vegas Optic, of imposing upon school children, study tasks to be IcarDed at home, is | gradually growing in disfavor among educators, the practice being regarded as injurious to the proper development of youthful minds and bodies, in that it produces nervousness, and lays the | foundation for many ills in after life.
 Six hours day at school, if properly utilized by the instructors, should be amply sufficient. Mere memorizlng is not all of education; the mind requires time for digestion as we'll Us the stomach, and large number of grown up men and women would be incapable of meet ing the tasks imposed upon young and tender children.
 The ulterior motive for imposing the task of home studies is that it mater iaily lightens the labors of the teacher. Lessons are needed, undoubtedly, but they ought to be included in the school hours, and should rot encroach upon the time demanded for play, relaxation or sleep.
 The fact is that children are sent to school al entirely too early an age, the motive being to merely get them out of the parents way, or to prevent them from running on the streets. Where the parents have time, inclination and capacity, to properly instruct their chil- d.en, tine little ones can learn more thoroughly what is most important for them t0 know, by remaining at home tlll ten or twelve years of age, than they can by attending any average school. Of course, they had better be at school, or iu prison, or in the grave, than in a home Of Ignorance and brutality, or re- ceiving gutter training in ignorance and vice. The very best kindergarten and primary school is around the family firesde, under the immediate care of refined and cultured mother.

Wa ShiDston Letter.
(From our regular cOrrespOndent).


 l WASHINGTON, O;t. 1. 1895.
 Secretary Carlisle returned from Buzzard's Bay this week, but TO one seems to know whether the ten days he spent there were devoted to the study Cf acting, with Joe Jefferson for teacher, or to discussing franco with Mr. CIeye- land between niDbles and rebaitiug. | One thing can bs stated on tue authoii- ty of one of Mir. Carliele's personal | friends, and that is that MT. Cleveland | did not say that he would not be a l candidate for another nomination, al | though 1t would have greatly pleased MT. Carlisle for him to have done SD, | as that would have given him a chance to feel the democratic pulse as to hi3 | own boom, in little more direct msnEer than he feels at liberty to do under prese ul circumstances. Secretary Cai- I lisle isn'l ths oLiy prominent democrat 1 V hC lees TesentiGi towards MT. CeVe- land bccause oi hiS continued silencs ou :he 5UDject OE tbIrd term. Of cGurse, l these u!en do not speak their resent | Glea5 openly, but sOEio of thsir friends do; that's h1g is existence ia kncwB. Ex-COsIsl lesSGugu Kligore, who kicked himself into uotoTiety while a menter cf the nouse, and who at the expiration or the last congress Vas appointed one of the judges of the new federal court ID Indian territory, has had eerlcUs charges filed against him by lawyer named Davis who practices before him. The first charge is that KHgoTe lacks the legal knowledge 0 judge ought to have, which doubtless agrees with the opinion of many of those who served iu congress with hIIn. He was Dext charged with originating some Iu- excusnble methods of court procedure, and with paying a lawyer named Edy for legal advice give en ths court by ] throwing judicial favOrs in his way and ! allowing him exhorbItant fees for what l he dOes. The department of justice has forwarded copy of the charges to Kil- 1 gore, and askec him an explanation.
 People in Washington smiled at the ! announcement that Attorney General ! Harmon was preparing to attack the bee; l trust. Such announcements were made 1 quite frequent when MT. Oney was at 1 the head of the department of justice, but if any trust was ever seriously at tackled by him he succeeded iD keeping the facts from the public.
 The liberty bell passed through Wash ington today, en route from Philsdel- phis to the Atlanta exposition. It was given patriotic reception by officials, citizens and school children, and the several associatIons of descendants of the revolution were out ia force to do honor 10 the bell that rang out the in- dependent defiance of the young repub- lie, which has already grown 10 be 6 giant among the worlds nations, and is still growing.

TUCsoN poundmssters have had nc sinecure in their mission of collecting untagged dogs that prowl the streets to the annoyance of pedestrians. They have been kicked, cuffed and abused without stint, and no man ever accept ed the thankless office that he did not quit 1t in disgust and with TOW Oh hIs hands. Measures went So far III this direction that no reliable person would accept the job. In order to bridge the chasm the city council passed, at it's last session, Ordinance No. 94, to which we respectfully call the attention of every owner of an untagged dog. It was passed for business and officials declare it will be enforced.

THE Curl6ndor case, which has been on trial for a week in the superior court, Baltimore, resulted In Q verdict yester- day for the plaintiff for cent damages, thus establishing much disputed point in a sensible way. Curlander and hle wife had upper berths in Pullman car to Chicago during the year of the expos ition. Mrs. Curlander was made sick by having to ride backward. A sym pathizing passenger, who had a section through to Chicago but left the train some distance east of there, gave h1s ticket 10 the Curlandere, and they accu- pied the section. The conductor mean time sold the section to other parties and ejected the Curlanders, who brought suit against the Pullman company for s10,OOO damages. Judge Ritchie decid- ed that the purchaser of a seat or sec tion in Pullman car had legal right to transfer it to whomsoever he pleased, and that Mir. Curlapder was entitled to damages because of the conductors &C., tion.

CHINESE MISSIONS.

The Santa Fe New Mexican has the following:
 Bishop John J. Newman said che other day, in speaking of Chinese mis- sions: "The question has arisen, Have We right to go into other countries and attempt to shake the established re- ligion?' l think not, for when you at tack a mans religion, that which has been his since the dawn of intelligence, that man is going to fight. The sane question was answered by a conference in England this year, when resolutions were adopted condemning the recent act of brutality on the part Of the Chinese, but acknowledging that the power of of missionaries did not extend to coercion. It is the philosophy and aud philanthropy of the Christian people that disseminate the only true religion broadcast through the lsnd." Then also comes a much respected PItlsburg clergyman, who had wide experience m religious teaching among the Chinese in this country, who said lately that he did not believe a Chin6man had ever been Christianized. Another authority tells us that there are but two methods where by mission converts are made in Chine they are either purchased or kidnapped.
 Yet we presume the English acd American churches will continue to drain the pockets of their parishoners for the purpose of carrying the word to the Orient. There isn't work enough st home for them to consider.

THE editor of the Review of Reviews finds several incidents in this falls pol itical situation on which to comment with effect in 'The Progress of the World" for October; the part played by the liquor question in the New York campaign is very clearly described. The present difficulties of the United States treasury and the bearings thereof on pa- tional politics are discussed. The open ing of the Atlanta exposition and the recent patriotic gatherings at Louisville and Chickamauga, the international yacht racing fiasco. the building of Am orican battle ships and Lord Wolseley's appointment as commander in chief oi the British army, are among the topics included in the months survey. The Madagascar campaign, the massacre of missionaries in China, the Armenian question aDd progress in South Africa under Cecil Rhodes (whose portrait serves as the frontiepiece of this num- Der of the Review) are matters of inter national interest which also pass under editorial review.

A WASHINGTON letter of Oct. 1, is authority for the statement that Secre. tsry Herbert has gone to Alabama, in obedience to MT ClevelaRd's orders, to make stump speeches against silver, and incidentally to look after the control of the delegation which that state will send to the next democratic national conven- ton. The programmes to the stump speeches can be carried out easy enough. but when it comes to controlling the delegation Secretary Herbert is likely to find that Senator Morgan will have something to say about 1t. Senator Morgan is 0 red hot silver man and he knows more about the inside tricks of Alabama politics than Herbert will ever know. Still, it is probable that Her bert's missionary efforts in Alabama will be quite as productive of results as those of Eoke Smith in Georgia.

WHATEVER may be said of repul

WHATEVER may be said of republican action in reference to silver legislation it will take long pull and strong pull for the democracy to get away from the platform adopted October ?, by the Massachusetts state convention. The platform commends the present national administration for its conduct of foreign affairs, and congrRtulates the manufac- turing interests of the country on Ihe successful operation of the new tariff, regretting that the bill as originally framed by the democratic leaders is not in force. It demands the maintainance of the existing gold standard, and op- poses the free coinage of silver and further purchase of silver bullion, and demands that the government retire its paper money.
