Texas Live Stock Men Estimate tho Loss
Above Twenty-Five Per Cent
HOUSTON, Tex, February 1s.-The
colds effect on cattle is said by stock
men to be disastrous. Texas live stock
men estimate the loss above twenty-five
per cent. One member of the liye stock
association said:
The loss is greater today than it
would have been ten or fifteen years
ago because the wire fencing has cut
the cattle off from the bottoms"
A man from the country below the
Southern railroad, this side of the
Brazos river, said he knew two stock
men who three days ago skinned over
three hundred cattle in two days which
had died from the effects of the cold.

Governor Coffin and the Ba11ot Laws.

Last evenings New York Post rel marks: Governor Coffin of Connecticut gave Governor Werts of New Jersey some needed information about ballot laws in his message to the legislature on Tuesday. Connecticut has a law similar to that of New Jersey which Governor Werts spoke of a few days ago as being better than any other within his knowledge. Governor Coffin tells him, as we did that both the Con- necticut and New Jersey laws are the only ones of their kind which, by allow ing the distribution of official ballots outside the polling places, make it pos sble that the 'vote-seller can furnish fairly clear evidence to the vote-buyer that the bargain between them has been observed.',, There is no doubt whatever about this. We are glad to see that Governor Coffin has heard of the vot- ing machine, and agrees with Governor Werts in recommending careful consid- eration of it.

A hasty glance at the field prompts me to suggest that quite as many large fortunes have been accreted on the Pacific coast through what seemd to be accident stupidity, or gross violation of sound business methods as have been amassed through well-conceived plans and intelligent management It has been asserted that all the millions talk en from the lower levels of the Com stock are due to blast fired without orders in the Grown Point mine; and I know of at least three fortunes of over million each accruing to the own CTS of mining shares, which they vainly sought to dispose of at beggarly figures on the very eve of developments null tiplying their values by hundreds and thousands.
 Very many real estate owners of San Francisco are in affluence to-day be- cause they could not sell their holdings during the great depression caused by the discovery of gold on Frazer river, and a large hotel in the city occupies block of land which the keeper of an. eating-house took for a board bill of $60 thirty-five years ago.
 A very prominent mining stock oper- ator, now deceased, admitted that a mis- take in telegraphic cipher despatch from Virginia City to his broker in San Francisco saved him from bankruptcy at a critical time. Had he sold the stock short, as he intended, ruin would have resulted; but the broker bought instead and a profit of quarter of a mil lion followed. Another well known San Francisco stock operator who enjoys the rental of a substantial building on Montgomery street, might relate a somewhat similar personal experience, were he so disposed.
 A gopher hole led to the discovery of the valuable gold deposits on shane's Flat, in Tuolumne county, and in fal- ling over a cliff a drunken Swede brought to light one of the richest quartz veins in Amador county.
 In the summer of 1852, in defiance of the advice and jeers of their neigh bors, a party of inexperienced miners fiumed a rifle of the North Yuba, where the shore bedrock was bare and there was no indication of gravel in the chan- nel And, indeed, no gravel of conse- quence was found in the bed of the stream after the water had been divert ed from it; but the bare crevices were studded with nuggets from one to twen- ty ounces in weight. There were not less than half bushel of them, and many old residents of San Francisco will recall the exhibition of them for a few days in a Montgomery street win dow-Overland.

t----------=------------'- FROM PULPIT TO STAGE.
A California Preacher Who Has Failed in
 the One wnl Try the Other.

the One will Try the Other.
 From the San Francisco Chronicle.l
 The Rev. IT. w. Harris, an Episcopal minister, has surprised his friends in oakland by announcing that he is go- ing on the stage He win give. up the pulpit for the drama, for he now feels that he can make the mark of his life as an actor Negotiations are pending on the part of the Rev. Harris to leave oakland with a theatrical company.
 MT. Harris is living in the hope that some day he may shine forth as a great star in the theatrical world As a preacher of the gospel he has not met with that success which he desired, and his star of hope in that direction has set If he cannot be a successful actor In the pulpit he thinks that at least he can make a strong mark on the stage. The minister has not been en- gagged to go with Salvini, but he has the the promise of the first opening in the company. The management will send for him, no matter where the company may be, just as soon as there is a val cancy.
 He is not particular about the place.. for he just wants to be given chance to work up in the profession. The min ister is without a church or a business, and the hard times have dealt severely with him. He has located in two little rooms in the house of Mrs. Murray on. Fourteenth street. The Rev Harris and his faithful little wife have just managed to make living and no more.t The husband could not secure church, and, as a last resort, he decided to apI ply his talents in another direction. He had friend in the person of Alfred Bouvier, manager of the Baldwin thea ire, and it was through the latter that he got an introduction to Manager Wil- kinson of the Salvini company MT! Bouvier knew that the minister had talent. He was also fully acquainted with the minister's circumstances and interested himself on his friends be- half.
 The Oakland minister was put to the test. and he is said to have made an excellent showing. He reads we'll ana makes a fine appearance, and seems to be just the man for some of the TO- mantle roles assigned to the members of Salvini's company.

YUkIcRI INK UzAWA.
The Great Commoner of Japan.
 From Harper,s Weekly.l

From HdrpGrS " WcCkly,I
 The Japanese synonymes of the words Liberty" Right" and privilege D Duty and obligation" Press" and speech, are said to be productions of his. He introduced public speech, which, as exercised in western coun- tries, was unknown in Japan. Some twenty years ago MT. Ful1uzawa and his followers used to gather in small room to practise elocution and oratory. The writer was told by the Grand Old Man himself that they used to have a paper screen between the speaker and the audience of companions and friends, so that he should not feel bashful or fail in couragel Shortly after, when there were some who could brave the gaze and attention of the audience, a small hall was builton the campus of his school and there public meetings took place fortnightly. The hall still stands, and serves the same purpose, Oratory which had its embryo in this humble edifice, has made much progress, and has become a common thing, in the country at present, even to the intro- duction of fists and blows in some mass meetings Showing that they are quite up to the standard of European and American assembliesD Although MT. Fukuzawa himself is not an orator of great fluency and eloquence, there is much convincing power and ease in his utterances, with the dearest of logic, and kindly, or rather fatherly, way which draws the attention and compels the respect of his listeners. Of. his pu- pills some have become noted speakers, and there are no less than forty of them occupying seats in the imperial diet.
 MT. Fukuzawa as a writer has his own Individuality and pecularities. In some degree he has caused a revolu- tion in this sphere. In the domain of literature he has also proved to be a commoner. His style is original It Is popular, not classical, and to some ex- tent colloquial, but not vulgar. To this might be attributed the great success and large circulation of his works. His easy and pleasing style is a great inducement to any reader,
 Journalistic work was undertaken by the great man later and the Jiji CTimes( stands foremost in reliability of news and in soundness Of views. It has the largest circulation of all important daily papers, and is independent of It's politics, being neither of government nor the opposition. At present he expresses himself through this organ, which Is managed by his younger colleagues, as an adviser and counsellor to the people and government There may have been some instances where he was too radi- cal, but this may be considered as a small fault when we think of him as an originator of ideas and movements, He is not an administrator, and thus the details of management rest with those who undertake the execution of his suggestions, whether in social or in industrial schemes.
