Still Kicking.

1t is truly remarkable how some sub
jects commented on through print are
handled by few of the editors through
out the country. The latest that has
been presented is the subject of kissing
There is not the slightest doubt that
kissing when pr operly attended to has
demoraliZing effect upon young
man-not his liver, but his heart. In
our estimation, this objection is being
carried too far. While it may be fact
that some diseases originate from this
ancient practice, yet there will be no
preceptible change in the fashion handed
down to us. There are a number of
editors in this world who have raised a
howl about kissing; but as a rule, they
are class Of men whose carcasseS
would not have the slightest impression
on chunk Of ice if placed between
their shirt and poreless hide; and ere
long they will advocate the securing of
a license, after thorough examination
by doctor to see If any microbes are
lurking around, before a husband Will
be allowed to kiss his wife.

the "Gun Cranks on the Range Blue
Box Smashing company,"puDlished
at the time, was to the effect tina,
the club came out behind in the
state shoot Of 1891. II any shooter
In the country can figure how a
club can come out loser in shoot
carried on under the following
terms, then we will get of our pc.
destal and say that in that event
the heightened members of an aris-
tocratic club should dive in their
pockets and make up the shortage
rather than take and use money
which was subscribed and intended
Tor another purpose.
The attendance was large, there
being as high as 81 entries, and
there were 20 teams entered for the
state team medal.
TERMS.
Targets, each 5 cents.
Pigeons, each 20 cents.
Five per cent taken off all pots
for expenses.
II ties on first money, 5 per cent
Off that.
IL ties on second money, ditto.
II ties on third money, same
thing.
II ties on fourth money, five per
cent again.
And that at q time when blue
rocks were selling at $500 per 1000.
There were Is regular events and
a world Of extra shoots which were
not on the program. All told there
were more than 10000 targets
shot away and paid for by the
shooters.
But the most conclusive evidence
will be found in the list below,
where the donors of the cash prizes
themselves, announce over their
signatures, that the contract that
they made with the soliciting com.
mittee was that the money given
was to be given out as prizes.
Read it:
This is to certify that in April,
1891, Mr.. y. G.. Guessaz, acting for
the San Antonio Gun club, solicit.
ed the sums OF money set opposite
our signatures below, and that it
was distinctly understood that
said funds were to be given as
prizes, Tin the shape of added
moneys, during the Fourteenth
Annual Tournament OF the Texas
State association, and that said
funds WERE NOT GIVEN TO BE USED
FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSES.

THE LAST GAP.
The resume of the entire matter
is to the effect that in 1891

OF 900 as prizes to the contest

to give the money as promised
They are making an effort to cap.
ture a few new gun clubs that
have sprung into existence for the
purpose OF forming a,state associa-
ton, as the following excerpt from
last Sundays Express will shows"
"The holding Of the tournament
is for the purpose of drawing the
shooters from over the state to.
gether, foster an interest in trap
shooting which will be eventually
the means OF forming different
clubs throughout the state.
The club realizes the Importance
of forming a state association for
the protection OF game and fish
which will be an association not
only in name but in deeds"
II this club is serious in its in
tentionS to foster trap shooting
why did it not start in 1891, in do
ing so by paying out moneys as
promised? Why did it not honor
the contract made between the
agent Of the club and the generous
people Of San Antonio, who gave
the money for prizes, and not to be
used as the "club saw fit"
There is no need OF forming an
other association. The present
State Sportsmen's association,
which was organized in 1876 and
If which Mr.. B. s. Rogers, OF Bren-
ham, has the honor Of being presi-
lent, is a good, honest organiza-
ion. 1t has never promised any
hing to the public that 1t has not
UTILIZED. AS to the rest of the
world the people Of San
Antonio can rest assured that the
shoot in November will
lot be attended, because it is
snown from Maine to California
hat the San Antonio Gun club has
Violated solemn promises which
we're made in 1891. There is but
me remedy left, and In the interest

hat it will be applied, as l like

shooters at their coming tourna.

The RipeninC of the Wine.

The wine in Switzerland is left in tho
casks till the following spring, and it is
here that fermentation takes place and the
mout is converted into wine. The change
begins almost Immediately; the liquid be-
comes turbid, carbonic acid gas is evolved,
scum is thrown up on the surface and
the temperature rises. 4 climax is reached {;
the intensity of the fermentation dimin-
ishes, subsidies; the scum settles rs Shiny
deposit at the bottom of the cask, and a
clear yellow liquid is left above. The grape
sugar has almost entirely disappeared, II
corresponding amount of alcohol has taken
its place, and the sweet taste of the mout
has given PLACE to the characteristic vinous
flavor of the wine.
In the early stages of fermentation cnor-
nous quantities of carbonic acid gas are
given off, and huge fires arc made in tho
cellars to drive it away. But at the time 1
write Of October, 1898, when the vintage
was the finest of the century, when barrels
to hold the mout could not be purchased
for love or money, when every cellar on
tho lake, from Geneva to Villeneuve, was
packed with casks Of mout, so great was
the amount of carbonic acid gas In the air
that, in spite of every precaution several
deaths from suffocation took place among
the workers. In the spring the wine is
drawn off clear into other barrels then
bottled. Vim ordinaire is not bottled ut
all, but simply drawn from the wood.
This is the wine sold at all the little wine
shops with which Switzerland abounds.

cantors containing half % liter each and

The New York Tribune said, Friday
The single sticker Jubilee, it was currently
reported in local yachting circles, Thurs
day night. was secretly tested off Marble
head, Mass, as to her sailing capacity,
Thursday, and that Gen. Paine, her
owner, with his SONS and also her de-
sigDcr, was highly gratifed with the re-
suit of the alterations made in her hull,
spars and rigging. Her bow has been
heightened several feet, her mast stepped
three and one-half feet further forward,
and her sails, rigging and tophamper
have been considerably changed. While
the Jubilee sailed well but unsuccessfully
in the international trial races, two years
ago, 1t is reported that her secret trial
showed SO great an inort ase In speed that
1t will take fast boat to equal her.
There are those who predict that in her
the Vigilant and Defender will find a
craft worthy of their canvas.
