A New Orleans sporting man" a few
days ago enjoyed the luxury of a private
palace sleeper to Denver for
the price of single through
ticket. lie had been solicited TO
purchase the ticket with the understand
ing that the trip was to be made on a
through car. 1t seems that the demand
for sJeepers dropped off on the way west
and there was a desire on the part of
the railroads TO consolidate and oondense
their trains. But this passenger declined
to leave his car and insisted upon the
fulnllment of the contract to the letter.
In Nevada a delegation of rough-looking
fellows, who had heard of the passengers
nerve, invaded his car and awoke him.
to shake hands with the man who de-
clined to "be bluffed by a railroad"

The cotton mill men of Fall River, Mass,
are considering whether they shall adopt
shorter hours in order to reduce stocks
The secretary of the spnners' union is
quoted as saying 1t is of no practical use
for the mills to go on short time; that If
they do so the southern mills will run
right along on full time and fill up the
vacuum which the New England mills are
trying to create. He says 1t can be proven
beyond question that southern mills pro-
ducing the same Industrial fabrics as those
made in Fan River are making satisfac-
tory profits at present market prices. This
being true the proper thing for the Fall
River people to do is, not to remain where
they are and try to compete with the
southern mills. but to move south and
join with the southern mills in supplying
the demand, and take profits.

1t is expected that the proposed amend
ment to the constitution making senators
elective by popular vote will receive con-
siderable attention in the Senate during
the extra session. Mr. Turpie and other
gentlemen are understood to have
speeches prepared upon the subject. The
proposed change will afford the senators
an excellent opportunity TO make speeches
breathing love for the dear people and
expressing the confidence which they feel
in the reliability and patriotism of the
masses. But that is probably all that
will come of the matter for long time

The Arbitration Treaty.
From the Cleveland Plain Dealer Den

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer Dem).
The indications at present are that it
will be ratified as amended. the neces-
sary vote being two-thirds of the senators
present at the time the vote Is taken.
Then will come the question whether the
amendments will be accepted by England.
Considering what those amendments are,
as they now stand their rejection by Eng
land would be an impeachment of its own
good faith in the original treaty.

Just sorter KnOwed. -

You can nearly always bet your money
on a boy. says the Kansas City Journal
Boys know some things better than even
the angels. In an important law suit at
Clay Center the other day a 12-year-old
boy was on the stand and testified that he
had spent just ten minutes in getting a
bucket of water for his mother. The
question of time was a vital one, and the
opposing attorneys tried to rattle the boy.
Finally one of them pulled out his watch
and proposed to test whether or not the
boy knew when ten minutes had elapsed.
The opposing attorneys on the boys side
of the case strenuously objected to this
test, for it is well known that nothing is
harder than to sit still and gauge the
passing of time. The Judge ordered the
test to be made however, and after the
court room clock had been stopped and
every chance removed for the boy to play
a sneak the trial commenced. The still
ness of the room became oppressive. Ev-
cry watch was drawn and the eyes of the
multitude rested upon the youngster, who
chewed gum, swung his foot against the
round of his chair and gazed piacidly out
over the benches as though the proceed
ings had mighty little interest for him.
Two, four, six minutes passed, and still
he made no sign. Then the attorneys
commenced to worry him. isn't time
about up?" asked one of them. Nope"
sententiously responded the boy, as he
changed the cross in his knees. Haven t
you got that water pumped yet?' said the
attorney in d tone which was intended to
convey the belief that ten minutes had
more than passed. Reckon not" again
replied the boy and his own attorneys be-
gan to chuckle. Nine minutes passed, and
tick, tick, tick went the seconds toward
the ten-minute mark, and up to exactly
three seconds before the limit when the
boy drawled out: II think I've got that
water drawed." The people burst into
applause, and after the trial, when the
boy was asked to explain how he hit off
the time so correctly he replied: "Oh, /
Just sorter knoWed. that's all"

The story that Secretary Bliss had been
over-ruled and snubbed in the Lamoreux
case and had resigned, turns out 20 be
baseless. 1t is said the reason Land Com
missioner Lamoroux's resignation was ac-
cepted was that the President wanted his
office for a faithful republican. whose
name he was about ready to send to the
Senate. That is reasonable explanation.

The Fate of Cuba.
From the Greenville Is. c. News Dem,

Should the Cubans win their independ-
ence, we are persuaded that the bulk of
Cuban wealth would sooner or later fall
into the hands of the omniverous Ameri-
can yankee. While the sentiments In fav-
or Of Cuba is largely the sympathy for the
"under dog" there are hundreds of smart
fellows in the United States who are al
ready preparing TO spring upon Cuba the
moment the war ends should II end in the
triumph OF the insurgents. At all events
a tyranny Of American dollars would be
immeasurably better for Cuba and her
population than Is the cruel barbarlsm Of
Spain. The Cubans themselves probably
have "a hard road 10 travel" no matter
what the result Of the war may be.

THE SILVER SERVICE
PRESENTED TO THE TEXAS AT
GALVESTON.
Ten Thousand People Witnessed the Cere-
monies, which Were Carried Out With
Much Pomp and splondor - Killed by
Robbers.

Galveston, Tex, Feb. 2O-The silver
service, Texas historical library,
smaller silver service, Texas flag and
two portraits Of Austin and Houston
are now In the possession of the battle
ship Texas.
With much pomp and ceremony the
transfer was made from the people of
Texas to the representatives of the gov
eminent of the United States, owner Of
the battleship Texas. There was a pa
rade of escort to Gcv. Culberson and
Capt. Glass, which went out to the
Beach hotel. There was a stand erect
ed for this purpose, and the presenta-
ton was made in the presence of 10000
people.
The people were packed on the big
lawn like the prover5ial sardines. They
could net hear much, but they saw and
went away satisfied. They saw the
governor and his staff, Capt. Glass and
his officers, the marines and sailors,
heard the band and watched the pro-
ceedings. Fortunately the exercises did
not last long, for thousands were COM
PEELED to stand. They took this good
naturedly and seemed glad of the op-
portunity to be present on such an aus
picious occasion.
Brass buttons and bright trappings
mingled with the crowd. Every officer
who had uniform had it carefully
brushed and furnished for the occasion.
The members of the legislature and
state officers occupied the first floor bal
cony, the editors the balcony above and
even upon the roof were people who
had clambered to places Of vantage to
witness the proceedings.
At 10 o'clock yesterday morning
there were at least 1900 persons await
ing transportation to the warship. Trips
were made with all possible speed, but
the facilities for conveying people out
to the ship were wholly inadequate. 1t
would have required twice the number
of vessels to accommodate the crowd.
1t is estimated that 5000 people were
turned away from the wharves unable
to secure transportation to the battle
ship.

Fort Worth, Tex, Feb. 2O.-At an
early hour yesterday morning officers
Copp and Moore found James Dillon, a
laboringman, some so years of age, ly-
ing in an unconscious condition at the
intersection of the Santa Fe tracks and
Fifteenth street. On the back of his
head was wound, evidently made with
some blunt instrument, and which had
resulted in his Inconsistencies. A fea-
ture of the find which induces the pub
lie to believe that the deed was that of
thugs, was the fact that the man had
been stripped of all save his under
clothing, and for time the outer gar
ments of the man could not be found,
but later on much of the same was re-
covered near by
Dillon was removed to the hospital,
where he remained in an unconscious
condition until yesterday afternoon,
when death relieved him of his suffer-
ings. No arrests have been made, and
no clew exists as to the perpetrator of
the deed. Dillon was not known to
have any money, hence the supposition
gees that the man was sand-bagged by
chance FOUNDERS at that point, it being
dark there. The police, late yesterday
afternoon, were at work on a clew,
which, they hope, will shed some ligh.
upon the matter.
