We are firmly persuaded that the
separation Of the people into two dis.
tinct armies, one voting for men who
will outlaw the poison-cure and the
other for men who would legalize it,
must come, and that such separation
cannot come too soon. To-day the
sheep and goats are mixed, and that
is not the method of a wise shepherd,
The same pulpits and papers that
were most bitter against the women
of Ohio in 1874 are the bitterest
against the Prohibition voters of TO-
day. To recruit and drill an army is
the gigantic task to which they have
set their heroic hands, turning aside
from the armies of the past whose
watchword is in Pennsylvania, "Give
the platform to the temperance peo-
pie and the candidates to the sa-
loons;" in New Hampshire and Yer
mont, "Favor the law, but wink at
none-enforcement." An old campaign

UNION LABOR DAY.

Thousands View the Parade and At
tend the Festivities at River
side Park.
The Labor Day celebration at Riv-
erside park, under the auspices of the
Trades Council, was the most success
full celebration of Labor Day ever
held in San Antonio and was attended
by thousands of our citizens.
The day opened with a grand street
parade in the morning, in which the
unions of the city, accompanied by
their bands and with city and county
officials as guests took part. In the
parade the carpenters and the two big
breweries, the latter represented by
the Brewers and Beer Drivers
unions, had elegant floats, the carpen-
tiers having a complete little cottage,
finished ready for occupancy. This
took first prize, the brewery floats re-
ceiVing honorable mention. The Tin
ners union also made a good showing
with their caps and canes and the
bakers in their uniform We're very
picturesque.
At Riverside park the remainder of
the day was passed in athlete games,
spechmaking and dancing. The best
of order prevailed and all passed off
happily.
The street car service was pro
nounced as excellent.

THE STORY OF THE SALMON.
Said to Deposit Its Eggs In Its Native
River.

River.
In the autumn time, and onward TO
the beginning of the next year, the
mother salmon ascends the rivers to de-
post her eggs, and thus to secure the
continuance of her race. In CONGESTION
with this periodical visit or visits to the
river must be mentioned, says Cham
ber's Journal, q very curious fact The
idea Is entertained very strongly by
some authorities that salmon invari-
ably returns to its native river or that
in which 1t Is bred. Ithas even been as
serted by fishermen that, when several
rivers enter the sea in one stream las
at Bonar bridge, for example), the sal
mon bred in each river will pass back
into their own water and will avoid the
strange streams. The late Frank Buck
land, a strong believer in this instinct of
the fish, regarded the sense of smell as
that which led 1t to It's native river. Per-
haps the truth is that for the most part
salmon do return to their own river, but
ly invariable. We know the fishes GER
tainly swim great distances along coast
lines where they are captured in stake
and bag. nets, and it may well be the
case that now and then q fish will turn
into river that is near, in preference to
seeking its own and distant water.
Arrived in her river, the mother sal
mon begins to scoop out kind of trench
in the gravel of the stream. This she eff
fects by blowing into the gravel with
her body. This trench is to be the
nursery of her young. The eggs are laid
in the furrow, and are duly fortified by
the male salmon. Then the trench is
filled in by the efforts of both parents,
the eggs are covered with gravel, and
the mound thus formed is called, in fish
er's language, a "redd." How many
eggs mother salmon will deposit is, of
course, difficult question to determine,
but stock calculation maintains that
she produces about 900 eggs for every
pound she weighs. Each egg in its di-
ameter measures about quarter of an
inch, and it is estimated that %, 900 eggs
go to gallon.

TWO INVENTIVE THIEVES.
They Took a Bicycle from the Rider on
Ret.


Bet.
The bicycle thief is inventive this
year. A young man was practicing cir
cles in front of his house when two fell
lows stopped on the pavement to admire
him. One of them, says the New York
Herald, asked how much the wheel
weighed, and the young man said it
weighed % pounds.
The smaller of the two said that was
too light, and that he believed in wheels
weighing at least 30 pounds. Also, he
mentioned that he once came in first
in a ten-mile race and rode wheel
weighing SO pounds. At this the larger
of the strangers laughed derisively, and
said:
"What do you know about wheels?"
"Why, I've"ridden more wheels than
you ever saw,'Hreplied the other.
81 don't believe you can ride at all"
ssHl bet you'five dollars can. Letme

THe could ride all right. He wobbled
slowly on the wheel fora short distance,
and then swished around the corner and
was away like the wind.
you'd better run after that fellow"
said the stranger; 81 don't know him."
The owner of the wheel set off, but
the short stranger must have been a
mile away by that time. Then when the
owner came back the stranger also had

LAY PREACHERS.
English Lords Who Deliver Sunday Dis

courses.
Emperor Williams taste for preach
ing, even where there is duty quail
fed ecclesiastic within reach, is far
more common fancy than most people
might be willing to imagine. Under the
circumstances it is difficult to under
stand the surprise which has been
caused by his insistence in delivering
the Sunday discourse during the recent
yachting trip in the Mediterranean, al
though he had on board with him the
chief of the court chaplains.
Thus in England there are at least
a dozen secular members of the house
Of lords who, not content with preaching
TO their own households and tenants,
actually travel about in England and on
the continent preaching wherever they
can find either a congregation or pull
pit at their disposal.
Several of them, such as, for instance,
Lord Radstock, have incurred the wrath
of foreign governments in consequence
Of their religious zeal.
The young Earl Beauchamp is an
other of these lay preachers, but he con-
fines his ministrations to the East end
OF London. Then there is Lord Bennett,
married to an American wife and heir
to the earl of Tankerville, who has been
arrested for street preaching on several
occasions.
The present duke of Hamilton does a
little in the preaching line, chiefly
among the poorer classes of London.
But none of these peers come anywhere
near the late earl of Shaftesbury so far
as pulpit oratory is concerned, the earl
being known by the nickname of "the
lay bishop"
