THE WORLD LAUGHS.

Today all the fun loving world in
christendom will put on the "cap
and BELLS" and extract all of the
hilarity out of itself that it is
possible to 90, for tomorrow comes
the day of "sack-cloth and ashes, "
and it will continue to be a dav of
repentance for folly wrought, for
full forty days and nights. We are
strange people-a people that
can laugh behind our tears or
frown while we laugh, and the
world will never be the wiser
While as a nation we are called
upon to mourn the death of several
score of our brave blue jackets, who
lost their lives on the Maine we
are seemingly by our Mardi Gras
professions, and indulging in other
frivilous fun, dancing on the graves
of those brave fellows, but such
is not the case, for our hearts go
out in sympathy at our country's
loss, and we have only put away
our grief for the nonce that we
may rejoice between sobs-the
drying of eyes and relaxation of
our sorrows.
In New Orleans today, one hum
dred thousand people will be dress
ed in their gayest attire, and will
give themselves up to pleasure,
putting aside business, and ques-
tions OF moment-thinking Of moth
ing but pleasure.
What can be said of New Orleans,
can be SAID of many other southern
cities, that have fallen into the
habit OF observing this day.
We do not obtrGde an objection
to the fun extracted from todays
festivities, believing as we do that
we should substitute as much
laughter for tears, while we are
passing through the valley of the
shadow of death, as it is possible
without appearing to laugh in the
ace of the awful catastrophe
which have visited us of late, both
on land and sea.
The Daily Texarkanian., 1898-02-22
Lent Upon Us.

Tomorrow will usher in the Len
ten season, which will continue for
forty days and nights, and ortho-
dox christians take upon themselves
to fast Gn way the full time.
The church bids US to keep in
memory those forty days the Lord
was in the Wilderness, fasting and
tempted of the devil. 1t is the wish
of most christian denominations
that it's members deny themselves
of all pleasures, and some denomi-
nations go so far as to preach the
abandonment of occupation during
this time, and attend church more
regularly, pray oftener, and get
in touch with the Savior.
We are taught to be charitable
and give to charitable institutions,
pay our church debts, and keep our
names from tarnish, both in and
out OF the church.
Let us resolve to be better, during
this Lenten tide, and perhaps, the
habit will grow upon us, aud we will
improve in goodness and respect
holy things and hoy men.

wAsHIEGTON's BIRTHDAY.

In many of the large cities today,
there will be meetings comemora-
tive to one of the greatest Ameri-
cans born on this hemisphere
George Washington, known to fame
and history as the father of Ameri-
ca and independence.
Texarkana has, in way, through
the educators of our children,
kept the memory of our illustrious
dead fresh in their minds by hold
ing appropriate school exercises,
but the men, the idolaters of IMAM
warship," have never gwen the
memory of Washington a thought
in this city. We nave heard no
patriotic utterances calling up the
memory OF the man who was a pill
lar of strength in the days OF our
nations adversely.
At Little Rock yesterday, the
Sons of the Revolution held ban
quet in celebration of the day that
gave this country such a man as
Washington, and many good papers
were read and responses to toasts
spoken. Among the best things
recited at this meeting was a poem
read by Fay Hampstead, which app
peals to American patriots at this
particular time. 1t is too good not
to be reproduced;
AT HAVANA.
There's murder down in the southern main
Where a good ship lay in the ports of Spain.
And a cowardly enemy came by night,
And flashed the fires of hell into light.
Treachery, men. And shall things
like these
Go on in the Pearl of the Antilles?"
For far less cause in the days that are
done,
Has war with its murderOus woes, begun.
For less indeed, have sea and shore
Been red with the flow of human gore.
Be it only that with evil design
Some black heart fired the fatal mine.
And who, as we stand on the brink today,
Can look in the far seen future and say
When that the earthquake shock shall
cease,
Or the land draw on into war or peace?
Alas! for the slain in the Spanish
main,
If their blood wsrk not for freedom S
gain!
But into the darkness let there be
The light of thorough inquiry.
Nor fear of the issue serve as shield
To keep the uttermost truth concealed.
And this be the call, hear over ALL
'Be Justice done, though the heavens
fall"

FELL IN THE PIRg.
Mrs. Cox and Her Babe Are Burned
10 Death.

W LNAAAH
Yesterday evening Mrs, Cox, liy-
ing on the Elliott place, two miles
south OF this city, while left alone
in the house with her two children,
one an infant in the cradle, the
other two years old, while passing
the open fire place had a iainting
spell and toppleb over in the fire.
The clothing of the unfortunate
woman caught on fire aud carried it
to the cradle where the 10 taut was
sleeping, setting 1t on fire, burning
the babe to a crisp. The little two
year-old kept out OF the way Of the
fire and when the father came
home the child was near the burn
ing cradle crying for its mother.
He put out the fire as best he could
and summoned his ueighbors to the
sad scene. This morning a courier
arrived here for the coroner to 20
out and hold an inquest over the
remains of the mother aud child.

Willie Golfers success of last year,
"The Man From Mexico" brought out
a crowd that confiued accommodations
to standing room at the Alvin last
night With years growth he has
added to the fun of Du Souchet's COM
edy. Collier himself is as quantity
comic as ever. From the time OF his
arrest to his return from the phantom
trip to Mexico, his every appearance
was laugh-producing Nothing could
be funnier than Willie Collier as the
prisoner The second act in the wor-
den's Office of the penitentiary is the
principal one. The star makes his ap-
pearance in the convicts' stripes at the
end of amarching row, doing the lock
step. He carries his tin cup and half
leaf of bread. Adolph Jackson as
the warden, William Loyeall,' is
good. Nearly the same cast which
presented the comedy last season is
retained. Louise Allen as 'Clemen-
tina Fitzhugh," the loving wife, is
charming. Dan Mason shares honors
with Mr. Collier in the prison scene.
He carries an excellent subdued Ger
man dialect. AS Won Bulow Bis
marck Schmidt poet, in the scene
with Collier, as his lawyer, furnishes
some of the best comedy in this wholly
comic performance. 1t Is owing to the
| excellence of Mr.. Golfers support as
much as to his own ability that "The
