Will HELD Gomez.

The departure of numb of Amer
leans who have bad military experience
for Cuba during the past week is to be
followed by other expeditions during
the present month and it is probable
before the 1st of d cember there wi
be enough Americans in Gomez camp
TO form a formidable addition to his
army.
The Cubans at Washington and in
New York have been careful to keep
their movement as secret as possible
They have not recently attempted to
orgs nize large expeditiors to sail from
any one port, but have scattered their
fire as much as possible. Every steam
err and aluost every sailing vessel
which has cleared from the United
States ports for points in Cuba during
the past few weeks has carried one or
more men who will hold commissions
from Gomez before the end of the year
Secret conferences have been held be.
tween agents of the insurgents and
sympatbizers which have resulted in
this quiet immigration.

The Lincoln EpisO|e.

self after due delibe alton ard per-
sc vering effort to gain full parental
consent. 1t is not what the Frep CHI
call a mes Alliance" a word, by the
way, no. yet turaed toto American.
The young husband is well educated.
respectable and moves in wbat is con-
sidered good American society. He
is wealthy compared with Abraham
Lincoln in his earlier days. There is
no reason why he may not rise in the
world or even play a laude % part in
it without risip g very far. 1t is true thai
the BRIDES grsndfather reached one of
the highest places in the history of the
country, but it was not through social
ambitions or alliances. He was always
a N an of the pc 1ple, even homespun n
his ways, and i. is not conceivable that
he would have withheld his bles>ip g
from the granddaughter who has as
serted the right to choose a life part
ner whom she loves AMI respects. If
any aspirations for a grand marriage
and establishment have been destroy

have only to look back one genera t on
to find better social ethics and better

Big Exodus TO KIOndike.

1t has all along appeared to those
who bad travelled east and south, that
the Pacific coast estimate of $4,000 peo-
pie heading for the Yukon next spring
was too low. OF late this estimate has
been raised to $500 Now it is stat
ed that Australia will contribute 1OO,-
600 TO the grand push of gold seekers
If Australia, with a population of only
4. 900 900 will send 10000 adventurous
spirits to the Yukon. what may no. be
expected from the United States, with
her 1000, 600, of whom a very large
percentage are talking themselves into
the gold fever? It is evident that
when the srgonauts from England,
Canada, Australia and the United
States and other countries that are be-
coming infected with the craze of gold,
arrive in the land of the aurora borea-
is. Alaska will have sufficient popu-
lation to Justify her admission as a
state, and there will be materi al for a
new province on the Canadian side of
the Hist meridian.

Notice to Shippers.
Office of Commercial Agent

OmC6 Oh COmm6rClal Agent,
Ell Paso, Texas, Sept. 25, 1897.
It has been decided by the Southern
Pacific Morgan Line Sunset Route
Management to withdraw steamers
from the Algiers route and have them
sail direct to and from New York and
Galveston, during the continuance OF
the quar- antine restrictions at New
Orleans ind vicinity.
All steamers leaving New York sub
seQuent to Sept. 18th, will land at
Galveston. There will, therefore, be
no detention to Sunset route seaboard
business.
For the protection of the interests of
our patrons, we would announce that
restrictions have been promulgated
prohibiting the handling of freight or
iginating in New Orleans, or passing
through that point, either having des-
tination in the state of Texas, or des-
tined to points beyond; therefore, we
would request that for the present no
freight be routed through New Or
leans.
On freight originating in Chicago,
Cleveland, Cincinnati and adjacent ter
ritories, we would solicit routing
through ST. Louis, care Frisco Line,
n. s. T. G. and Southern Pacific; M. x.
& T., h. & T. Q. and Southern Pacific:
G. r. l. & P, 81. & T. G. and Southern
Pacific; or Burlington. M. K. & T., 81.
& T. G. and SSouther Pacific.
This does not in any way effect
| freight to and from sesbOard via Nor.
gan Line steamers and Sunset route,
as same does not pass through New
Orleans.
The post Office department. advise
{ that all mail from New Orleans to Mo-
! bile Scranton, Ocean Springs and
other supposed infect districts is fumt-
gated and no danger from that source
is likely to arise.

A QUEER RACE.
THEY LIVE ON AN ISLAND IN THE
GULF OF CALIFORNIA.
They Can Run on Water-They Kill
DefOrmed Babies and Allow no One
to Live More Than seventy
Years.

United States Consul Hugh Long, at
Nogales, Mex, has furnished the state
1epartn eut par iculars of the supo ,sed
murder of parry of Anne leans headed
~ Captain Porter. by the Seris In
clans, on TiburnOn island, in. the gulf
of California.
According to the statement made to
the Mexican customs officers by Martin
Mendes, ma ter of the s'oOp GOT IL :"
Caotain Porter sailed from Saa Diego,
Cal, with his companions in a smal II
boat TO engage in collecting shells.
They left TIE port of Guaymas, August
9 under special permission from the
Mexican government to explore the
shores and islands of the gulf.
The consul says the island of Thur
non is one of the largest and most
p cturesque in the gulf of Californ a
and is pe0pled by a most remaraa BILE
tribe of Indians who are poted for their
large size and extraordinary abilities
On land and water. Those who have
witnessed their aquatic sports at a
respectful distance declare that many
of them can actually walk or rather
run upon the wafer with no assistance
other than broad rawhide shoes. They
are, writes the consul, expert fisher
men and huntsmeu, having rigid ideas
as to the maintenance of game D. e.
killing of game under severe penalties
They destroy all children in infancy
that are malformed or appear to be
lacki ing in intelligence. In this way
their stands I'd of physical and mental
conditions in both sexes is kept very
high.
1t is currently believed that al one
time the native women were eXter-
minated to make room for whittier
and superior race of women The
nuceus of this r-ce of higher women
was formed for captiveS maze at
various times extending over h per cd
IF years on land AMI water. They bav
70 schools, but each home has a syste IN
OF physical training. The natives
guard the saOrs day and night and
no man is allowed to pen :trate the
islands even if he should make a land
ng.
L. is said that no epidemics have
ever prevailed on the isla-d and sease
is scarcely known am ng these eXtraOr-
binary peopie,so that the m n and
women are magnificent in their physi-
cal endowments.
No men or woman is allowed to I've
beyond the age'of seventy years. no.mat-
ter how well preserved 10 body and
mind he may be. BY careful selection
a large percen tage of the women have
a trans plrent DE- achy complexion and
deep auburn air.

and some OF the committees will get to
work during the first week, while the
senate will 90 right ahead from the
point It Il fit off last summer.
Several Thousand bills have already
been introduced in the house and there
is material fO- every committee to get
to work upon.
. Those who prophecy an early adjourn.

no congress for m my years has had
so many Important questions demap d.

tain that vicious aud violent assaults
will be male on the system in both
branches of congress.
There is the national bankruptcy
measure aud the subject of restricting
the flow CT undesirable imm' grafton to
this country. Debate of the cur
rency, whether or not it eventuates
in &c ion, will inevitably run through
many weeks. The administra sion
plan will be thoroughly discussed and
analysed. Then there will be num-
erous Individual plans, all of which
the authorities will wish to explain and

A traveller just returned from Lon

betwee en- the hotels of London and

over half the city in an effort to obtain
a resting place, and ended late at night
by accepting very Inferior quarters a.
something more than inferior rates In
New York, notwith standing the fact
that many families make their perma-
pent winter homes at our hostelries,
large crowds attacted by any special
event find slight difficulty in securing
quarters C 4mmensurate with the size
of their individual incomes. In the
matter of accommodation tie hotels of
New York are rapidly nearing the
state hen their capacity may be des-
cribed as without limit, aud in regard
to their mode of conduction, they
evidence strikingly that the talent for
catering to creature comforts
has reached its highest state of devel-
Opment.
