Office OF Commercial Agent,
Ell Paso, Texas, Sept. 25, 1897.
It has been decided by the Southern
Pacific Morgan Line Sunset Route
from the Algiers route and have them
sail direct to and from New York and
Galveston, during the continuance OF
the quar- artine restrictions at New
Orleans and vicinity.
All steamers leaving New York sub
sequent to Sept 18th, will land at
Galveston. There will, therefore, be
no detention to Sunset route seaboar6
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-
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,
II. & T. G. and Southern Pacific; M. K.
81 T., II. & T. G. and Southern Pacific:
@. r. l. & p. II. & T. G. and Southern
Pacific; or Burlington. M. K. & T, II.
s. T. @. and Souther Pacific.
This does not in any way effect
freight to and from seq board via Nor
gan Line steamers and Sunset route,
rs 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 fumi-
gated and no danger from that source
is likely to arise.

KNIGHTS OF HONOR.
Each Member Knows IN Advance What
He Must Pay-LodSe Notes.

The step rate adopted by the knights of
Honor has been criticised by persons not
posted. Any thinking man who will take
the record of any of the fraternal societies
which have run for . years and compare
the rate paid the first year with that paid
in 1896 will find he has been paying &c
cording TO the step rate. According to
the present table OF rates a member can
calculate precisely what it will cost each
year in advance.
Several more new lodges arc nearly

The receipts for the first of the special
assessments aggregated S110, 900.
George Washington lodge was recently
instituted at Boston with $50 charter
members, and other new lodges are being
organized all over the country.
Every member who can should pay off
the special assessments at once, so that the
widows and orphans will receive their
money promptly.
