R. RlPLEY'S CIRCULAR DELAYED.

Galveston, Texas. February AT late
hour this afternoon General Agent Ripley
OF the Lone Star steamship line said that
the circular he was preparing for the public
would not be completed today. In It, how
ever. 1t is understood Mr.. Ripley will show
the purposes for which the Lone Star ships
we're put into the New York; Galveston
trade, and will explain In detail the meth
DDS his competitors have pursued to drive
the line out OF business. The side lights the
circular promises to throw on the matter
will prove interesting. Another thing 1t
will contain is COPY of the resolution
adopted at the New York meeting OF the
Southwestern Association when 1t was de-
termined to boycott the Lone Star line by
refusing to accept freight unless all chars-
es were prepaid.
That the next few days will bring rat
ters to definite issue there is no doubt.
While Mr.. Ripley will naturally not dis
cuss his plans in the newspapers, it is
obviously his purpose to 20 into the courts
at once to attack there the position as
sumed by the ra;l lines, which is described
LAS conspiracy against trade, against
public policy and 4 discrimination which
is inhibited by law. Such action as is
brought VIII be had III the United States
court, and II is probable that temporary
restraining order will be sought TO pre-
vent the railroads from putting into effect
their last order until such time as the
matter can he finally determined by the
courts.
Judge Bryant Will begin term OF the
Federal court here on February u. less
than week after the order of the railroads
goes into effect.
1t lis understood that in addition to re-
fusing to accept freight from the Lone
Star line unless all charges are prepaid,
that the Texas lines are now refusing to
sign bills of lading from interior points to
New York or elsewhere, on cotton to go
forward via steamers which are under the
ban of their opposition. should this last
rule be lived up TO. this business will
he cut off entirely, as practically no cotton
originates here for shipment, shat which
comes here being routed directly from the
point Of origin in the interior.
Matters have come to such point that
the final crisis may be expected within a
very few days. While Mr.. Ripley will not
discuss the matter. and he is the only one
here in authority to speak for the Lone
Star people, it is generally understood that
the fate of that line lis now practically in
the hands of the courts, and their action in
granting or refusing the order TO restrain
the railways from putting their boycott
into effect will determine the life or death
of the enterprise.

In true organ playing the music

Presently the sacristan called

"Who is it playing, M OF

In 1861 gold was discovered in
the eastern part Of the State, and the
famous Comstock gold mines were
opened. The mining town Of Virginia
City, with its own water-works, was
the result of this. Other gold and
silver mines were opened, towns
sprang up, and in some cases substan-
tial cities were built. Ardent citizens
predicted great and growing pros
perity for the State. But, alas for
these hopes! the price Of silver went
down, the grade Of ore in many mines
proved too low to be proftably worked,
and ere long, bafled in the struggle
with fortune, men abandoned whole
towns and cities to the owls and
prairie dogs and coyotes. Naturally,
since the desert opened no other op-
portunities for profitable labor to the
disappointed miners, this has affected
the population Of the whole State.
Therefore we have in Nevada the
anomalous condition of one State in
the Union that is decreasing instead
of increasing in population.

ga recruit should be taught not to
carry any more weight than the
Government imposes in the way Of
equipment. 1t is very important that
he should know what to carry. He
should restrict his belongings to abso-
lutte necessity.
EIn camp the drill should be not
less 5han an hour and quarter, and
of not more than an hour and a half
duration. If they are prolonged be-
yond that time the men lose attention
and the instruction ceases to be of
value.
GAS to the use Of ammunition in
battle recruits should be taught to be
careful not to waste any of it, and not
to fire unless there is something to fire
at, unless, of course, they are ordered
to do so by the commanding or compa-
ny officers. At the present time arms
are SO we'll and accurately constructed
that thorough knowledge Of them,
of their powers and capabilities, is
essential to success. Recruits should
receive accurate instruction in the
method of becoming good shots, in
theory at least, if not in practice.
They should know how to handle their
weapons. and possess the knowledge
that makes skilled marksmen. They
should be theoretically instructed how
to become good marksmen, as the
deadly range Of small arms runs up to
5000 yards, and in the hands of skill
ed marksmen, Springfield or other
good rifle is very deadly weapon as
far as the enemy can be seen.
"The duties of a soldier in actual
warfare are trying even under the most
favorable conditions. tits, therefore,
absolutely necessary that he should
be physically as near perfect as attain
able. He is obliged to endure long,
fatiguing marches without food, rest or
water, sometimes under boiling sun
at that. Again, he will sometimes be
compelled to march in the rain, through
mud, and ford rivers that will take him
up to the waist. The conditions in
Cuba, during the season of the year
when our men could go down there with
comparative safety, may be different,
but rest assured Of this: There is no
romance in war and the recruit should
make up his mind to anything in the
way Of hardship when he offers him
self for service in war.-Phizadelphia

An Awkward Predicament.

Professor Max Muller in Cos
mopolis recalls the story of what
happened once in the coinrooms o.:
the British museum, where, during
visit of a number of gentlemen
and ladies, it was observed that a
very valuable and almost unique
Siciliap coin had disappeared. All
the gentlemen present in the room
at the time had to be searched, and
no one objected except one He pro-
tested his innocence, but declared
that nothing would induce him to
allow his pockets to be searched.
All the other visitors were allowed
to go home, but he was detained
while the coinroom was swept and
every corner searched once more.
At last the missing coin was found
in chink of the floor.
Every apology was made to the
suspected person, but he was asked
why he had so strongly objected to
being searched. He then produced
from his pocket another specimen
of the very same coin. II came
here," he said, 'to compare my
specimen, which is very perfect,
with the only other specimen which
is thought to be superior to mine
and almost unique in the world.
Now, suppose, he added, "that you
had not found your coin and had
found my specimen in my pocket.
Would anybody have believed in my
innocencef"

Bad Yillaea Sanitation.

Village houses are always poor
sanitary structures. The cellars and
foundations are improperly con-
structed, and as a result ground air
permeates the whole dwelling, espe-
cially in winter. A dampproof course
in the walls and cellar floor of
concrete and asphalt would be con-
sidered a luxury rather than neces-
sity in the country. Another point
about cellars is the fact that they
are frequently the receptacle for de-
composing potatoes and other vege-
tables, fact which certainly does
not add to the healthfulness of the
house.
In the winter the heating and
ventilation are very poor because
almost all village houses are stove
heated, and for a house to be effec-
tually heated by stoves there must
be series of fresh air inlets and
foul air outlets suitably arranged,
and these do not exist in village
dwellings.
Outside the house the first thing
chat strikes the sanitarian is the
garden, filled perhaps with decaying
cabbage, kitchen refuse and the like.
1t is needless to state that q lawn is
the best thing to have abouta Il dwell
ing. If there is a garden, it must be
cultivated thoroughly, or it will be
worse than none at all Decaying
vegetables-in fact, all putrescible
refuse-should be buried.-Sanita-
rian.
