prehension about yellow fever. The
dreaded scourge will not enter Shreve-
port. AS true sentinels as ever kept
watch in the dark hours OF the night
are on duty, ane they, vigil-eyed,
never sleep.
Our citizens can trust our Board of
Health; the people may repose con-
fidence in our City Council: all are

Too much praise cannot be bestow-

Mcclellan, both of whom have been
tireless in the work, faithful to the
smallest detail, knowing neither
friend, relative nor foe in the dis
charge OF the great trust which their
Offices repose in them just now. And
the best of all is, neither is an alarm
ist, neither is excitable, but both are
careful and prudent, and by their
cool promptness in establishing a
quarantine against all infected points.

Since the first OF the week the
trains running in from New Orleans
have not been allowed to enter the
city, while all trains oil the other
roads have been under close medical
inspection since the very first notice
of fever at Ocean Springs reached
Shreveport. And to make assurance
doubly sure a meeting of the cstizens'
committee and Board of Health and
City Council was held Thursday and
all trains over the I. & P. K. c.,

GET THE BEST.

Every live business man knows that cheap advertising is always the dear est. If you have something good to it can be seen and give it some mag netic qualities. The same rule ap- plies to communities that have some thing good to sell or give away. Cheap pamphlets, misfit souvenirs and pri- vate puffs find their proper goal in the waste basket, but piece of lit erature, like a volume of the Treas ure Land" series, is read with inter- est and priZed as standard work. Ii is handed around and placed on li- brary shelves, and does not lose its value for years.

WORK OF TRAIN WRECKERS

Wreck In Four Months,

PHILLIPSBURG, N. J., August 1O.-Train
Central railroad Of New Jersey, ard last
night for the fourth time in as many
months their dastardly work accomplished
the wreck of two fast freight trains, the
blocking of the tracks until 5 o'clock this
morning and the loss of at least $4,000.
About $50 o'clcck last night as train No.
AS was laundering along at fifty miles an
hour on it's way to New York with many
cars OF valuable merchandise the engine
struck a pile Of ties just west Of White
House. The obstruction was loosened by
the awful crash and pushed along to a
switch, where the ties caught. The engine
left the track and landed down an embank-
ment a cCrplete wreck. Fourteen cars
were also derailed. piled up in confusion
ana their contents scattered along the
track.
Engineer Shupp of Mauch Chunk remain
ed at his post and miraculously escaped
with his life. Conductor Mattrass, also of
Mauch Chunk, was riding on the tank of
the engine and was seriously hurt. The
fireman jumped.
Before a flagman could he sent ont to

fielght, composed Of cars loaded with fish

The engine and two cars of fish were de-
molished. Engineer Strubble of Bayonne

A wdtchman had been employed at White

pended, the railroad officials evidently
thinking the gang had left the district.

THE WAGE WORKERS,
As Whole They Have Risen I'm the
Social Scale of Life.

Comparative figures compiled by the de-
partment of labor in the form of deduc-
tons from the last census statistics, re-
lating to workers at gainful occupations
point to the fact that persons at work, es-
pecially females, have increased very much
faster than the population at large. As a
result the statement shows that the pro-
portion of workers relative to the total
population and to the whole number of
people Of the respective ages was consid-
erably greater in 1890 than at the precel-
ing census periods, and that this increased
proportion is apparent for each of the great
classes of occupations, except agricCltura
fisheries and mining. All this, the state
ment sets out, shows very clearly the con-
stantly increasing disinclination of cur pop
ulation to follow agricultural pursuits,
tendency materially hastened, doubtless, by
the wide application of machinery TO the
processes of agriculture. Despite this dis
inclination and the recent cvercrowding of
manufacturing and commercial centers the
analysis demonstrates that the increased
proportion of workers is found generally
in the higher walks of business life and in
those occupations which call fer skilled
labor principally, rather than in the lowest
OF more laborious ferns of employment
The conclusion is accordingly stated to be
inevitable that the great body of workers
has, as hole, progressed and has pe.-
ceptibly risen in the social scale of life.

What do they think of Senator German s
reported retirement from the senatorial
race, colonel?"
We'll. they looks at it in different ways
There's some that thinks he is making a
sacrifice of himself for the good of the
party. Now, as a general thing, for what
you might call a steady diet, don't be-
ueNe III tneSe mere political sacrifices, in
immolating yoself upon the altar of your
party. so to speak. l take it as safe bet
at long odds. that the party can be de-
pended upon to sacrifice you at the first
opportunity without your goin' around
huntin' for the Juggernaut to cast your
self under the wheels. But with German
it's different. If he sacrifices himself it's
because he discards a deuce to draw an
ace, and he sho'ly knows what cyard is
comm next. That you can depend upon.
I take it that this man German is a
real thoroughbred, strayed by mistake into
that corral of jackasseS called the demo-
cratic party. He can see further into the
future than any of the rest of 'em can into
the past. Because why? Because history
has shown that the democratic party can't
see far enough into the past to take warn
Ing by the mistakes they have made.
But this thoroughbred, Gorman sho'Iy
takes pity upc1 the supplemented deri-
zens of the corral in which he finds hisself
and aims to lead them into better pastur,
IL they will have it SO. Now, reckon that
he Is just about up to some deal having
this end in view. He may be the man
to unite the democratic party in the next
presidential campaign, and If he passes
out in this Maryland senatorial game it's
because he sees a jackpot in the presiden-
tial deal.
For, as I says before, this German has
a far-reachin' gaze into the future and
in addition to being a fine gentleman he is
an astute politician and you don't want
to look for his making any breaks in that
line"
