Working the Sensation. "

From the Freie Presse for Texas
Our local "Parkhurst Craig" is
continuing his crusade against the
saloons, and is succeeding in his
principal desire, sensation" and
parades before his audience, with a
self-sufficient vanity, the repeti-
tion of his former TRADES; and the
punctilious Express, knowing the
desire of the public for sensation,
could not do anything quicker
than to print the Capuchinian eff
fusions. If, as Mr.. Craig asserts,
he has received sympathetic at
testations from representative
Germans at "New Braunfels," and
"other places" he will have to
show these communications and
the names of those who have writ
ten them, before anyone will be-
lieve him.

FLOATING FRAGMENTS.

Written for the LIGHT.
How obsurdly the stockmen act
ed when they refused to send a pc
tition to congress about the impor-
tation of foreign cattle. Sooner
then get into politics they neglect
ed to take action on the most i'm
portant matter brought before
them. Verify politics you have
much to answer for.
Rev. G. Q. A. Rose is to be con-
graduated on the enterprise and
success with which he is carrying
on the arrangements for the Mid
winter fair. III the industry
and energy displayed in securing
attractions, receive the reward
they avert, San Antonio should be
flooded with visitors during the
week.
In other matters San Antonio
has not been so successful.
Citizens must wake up to the
fact that they are at present prac-
tically living on each other and
that, unless all join hands and
work with will to promote the es-
tablishment of suitable CONNER
cial enterprises, the day is not far
distant when her prestige as a
business centre will be gone for
ever.
Unless something is done the de-
preston will grow worse. Things
have changed in the past few years.
Then San Antonio was the head
quarters for the cattle and wool
trade and for supplies for those
employed in them.
Now each of the scores Of little
towns around the city helps to
deduct its share of business from
the former centre until but little
of the original trade is left.
This is a natural consequence of
the extension Of civilization and
the settlement of the country with
the usual adjunct of railroads.
Formerly farmers came miles and
miles to do their trading. Now
they have a town or village at
their very doors in which their
business can be done.
What is to be done? How is this
to be- remedied?
San Antonio must cease to re-
gard herself as merely centre for
the shipment Of the country's pro-
ducts east and the distribution of
eastern products in Texas.
She must arise to the emergency;
and develop with the times. She
must establish such factories and
other industries as her geographic
cal position and her natural re-
sources will make profitable.
Then instead of distributing
eastern goods she will turn out
supplies Of her own, manufactured
out of Texan material and by
Texan lands. Thus will be kept
within her own limits the money
which yearly goes to enrich east
ern merchants.
This is accessarily the city's fu-
ture, il future she is to have and
all true citizens should give every
assistance in their power to aid
new industries.
Let the cotton mill and shoe fac
tory once be established and they
will bring new enterprises in their
train.

BICYCLE BOATS.


Tor Pleasures
Something new in river craft will
soon make its appearance on the Poto-
mac. 1t is called the hydrocycle by the
scientific, and river bicycle by ordinary
mortals. 1t consists of two cigar
shaped galvanized steel cylinders, each
containing eight alright compart
ments, and built on the plan OF cata-
maran. These cylinders are IS feet
long and IL inches in diameter, and at
the stern of each is fish-tail rudder,
easily operated by the person propelllng
the boat. The floats are securely fast
ened together by steel bars, on which
rests the framework of the craft. This
consists Of wheelhouse, bicycle seat
and handle bars, and an easy chair in
front. The boat is propelled by a
double wheel, each containing eight
paddles, which alternately strike the
water. They are made Of galvanized
steel and are counterparts OF the Old
time paddle-wheel.
1t is operated in the same manner that
bicycle is propelled. The operator
mounts his seat, places his feet on the
pedals, and when they revolve they
move an endless chain around a
sprocket, which in turn drives the pad
die.
The speed Of the boat Is ten miles an
hour.
The inventor Of the hydrocycle Is L.
V. Moulton, Of Grand Rapids, Mich, and
ten boats are now being constructed for
the Columbia Athletic club. The boats
cost 500 each.

LEGATION Of such losses less stringent

from the battleship one day recently,
The power division on that day was
called for torpedo practice, and, under
supervision Of Lieut.. John c. Fremont,
new Whitehead torpedo, invoiced to
the ship at $4,000, was launched from
the port forward torpedo tube. A dunn
my head was fitted in place OF the serv-
ice head, which is armed with detona-
tors, and an impulse charge of four
ounces Of powder sent the missile

Down the bay and some 500 yards dis
tant, the torpedo was expected to run.
But it did not. Through some disar-
rangement OF the mechanism the prop
cling machinery was not set in mo-

BURGLAR ALARM.

barely 30 feet deep, are IA buttons un-

CHRONIC Discomfort.
II Robs Life OF Half the Good There Ia
III It,

II Robs Life OF Half the Good There Ia
III 1t
1t is trte to say that we miss half of
the good Of life by discomfort with our
surroundings. But, although trite, we
pay so little attention to the truth of
the statement that we still 60 on maxi
ing the same error, and look before and
after and long for what is.not."
Says Charles Baudslaire: This life
is a hospital where every patient is pos
sesssd with the desire to change his bed.
This one would prefer to suffer before
the stove, and that other thinks he
would recover by the window"
The probabilities are that the malndy
,of discomfort would follow the so-callea
patient wherever he might be situated.
He, like the heroine Of Mrs. Whitney's
Hitherto, is ALWAYS holding up his soul
with thorn in it, Or, II the prick is
not in his soul. it is in his 10TH life, and
he makes himself and his friends mis-
cradle by expatiation upon 1t, Such q
person is the most wearing companion
in the world, for he makes constant
drain upon our sympathies. And the
amusing part Of it all is that when this
present time over which he makes 10
much moan shall have become the past,
he will then sail it the "happy past"
and heave o sigh ut the thought that it
cannot return. Thus he darkens all his
pathway through life with foolish dis
content, while "the beautiful around
him lying" is unnoticed. An excellent
cure for this disease of discomfort Is
for q man severely and mercilessly to
examine himself and ask why he should
be particularly blessed above others,
what especial virtue he possesses that
should calldown upon his head showers
Of blessings. II he is frank he will nc
knowledge that SO deep-seated Is his
complaint that he would find some
cause for grievance against such show
srs. For the person who recognizes his
failing and is anxious to cure himself
Of II, a good practice is that Of attempt
Ing to count the negative mercies--the
immunities from pain, sorrow, illness
and bereavement. He will be speedily
overwhelmed, first, with q realization
Of his blessings, and next, II he he good
for anything, with shame that he could
ever have been discontinued. Morbid
unhnpplness is habit, and a wicked
one, and all tendencies toward itshould
be vigorously checked from infancy to
old age. Once let it take root, and 1t
