VERY SAD ENDING.

New York, Dec. 2S-Lord Dunra-
ven and his friend sailed this after
noon on board the Umbria for Eng
land. In answer to questions put to
him at the pier by an Associated
Press representative Lord Dunraven
said: 81 really do not wish to talk"
Mr.. Glenney was q little more

at is very sad ending" Mr.. Glen
ney did not feel inclined 70 qualify
nor define this statement when urg-
ed to do so. He said that there were
only two men left behind TO look af-
ter the interests Of Lord Dunraven,
namely, Lawyer Askwith and Secre-
tary Hamilton. The reporter asked
Mr.. Glenney if all the evidence in
the case as far as the Dunravan part
of it went had been submitted The
reply was. .You cannot expect Lord
Dunraven TO speak before the COM
mittee when he is on the ocean and
as to my testifying I'll be on the
ocean too"
As the ship moved out from the
dock a few Of those who knew the
titled visitors shouted @Good bye
Lord Dunraven," but the moment
the cry went up the lord went to the
other side. Mr.. Glenney, however,
remained leaning over the rail and
bowed his acknowledgement to the
cheers and greetings, derisive or
otherwise which were sent up for.

State in the Union, with a total
area of 100000 square miles, of
which at least 10000 miles
may be benefited by irrigation.
Practically nothing. The whole
work of irrigation in the State
at the present moment, SO far
as we know, comprises an eff
fort to irrigate some $4,000
acres near Brownwood; a few
miles of bitches along the Yves
tern side of the Pecos River; a
survey for some work in the
counties along the line of the
Fort Worth and Denver Rail-
way; a little work along the Rio
Grande near Laredo and Browns
vile, and unfinished ditch
near FL Paso.
There is no royal road to ir-
rigation. 1t requires a knowl
edge of all the conditions Of
the climate and soil, as well as
the natural lay of the country,
before anything very decisive
can be determined. The work
may be made costly or cheap,
just as the facts are known or
understood. So far as the eli
matte conditions are concerned,
1T is necessary to know some
thing about the rainfalls; not
how much rain falls in a year,
but how much falls daily or
weekly, and whether this falls
during the spring and early
summer months, when most
needed, or during the fall and
winter, when throughout the
greater portion of the State it
can only go to waste. We want
to know also how this ia;
falls; whether gently, so that it
has time to soak into the soil,
or whether it comes like the
Egyptian hail plague, destroy
ing everything and running of
rapidly, making torrents in
places which a few hours before
were dry, condition they vii
be in again a few hours later
These rains do ne good, but
rather harm When the rain
s...s gens.sst has time 10 81. !,
into the ground, and then aflei
supplying the plants with saf.
ficient moisture, the surplus
finds its way to the nearest
water course, and by steady
trickling makes a permanent
stream.
The next information requir-
ed is the condition or character
of the soil. All soils are not
alike susceptible to irriga
ton, for the reason that all
are not alike in texture. For
instance, while clay Ian d S
have a stendency to bake
under a hot sun, and become
impervions to water, sandy
soil under any circumstances
will absorb water freely, while
sand with a graveIly subsoil
will have u tendency to leach
and carry the water supply TOO
deep for the roots of most crops.
