diences assembled quietly, but last
evening for some time before the call
ing to order of the two great gather
ings. Tents Endeavor and Williston
were Babels of sounds and scenes. The
state, provincial and foreign delega-
tons were grouped in designated
punches divided about equally between
the two tents. Each had it's own par
ticular rally cry, and each delegation
took pleasure in making it known to
the extent of it's lung power. The
delegations which were not shouting
were sin cling

Loss in Cotton in Texas.

Austin, Tex, July 12.-The cotton
exchange in this city finds that the cot
ton loss in the Brazos bottoms owing
to the floods will represent 100000
bales of cotton, representing 100000
loss. but that the increase in the up
lands, owing to the rains, will be so
large that by far the best crop har-
vested in years will be produced and
the floods will have little effect on the
cotton WELD of Texas.

Righteous INDIGNATION

"Where is that baseball team that
was to materialiZe some time this
SUMNER" asked a man who is an ad-
mirer OF the national game.
Sci Paso should have q team and it
is down right shame if the Ell PasO
of 1899 with hertwenty thousand people
cannot raise and support nine that
would be acredit to The city.
''Something must be the matter with
our people; the old fans must have
quit us or they are too busy in their de-
sire for the almighty dollar to remem-
Der the fame and glory that the old
time Browns brought to Ell Paso.
"Why, eight or ten years ago the
merchants and businessmen of this
city gave their money willingly for the
support of Ell Paso's team: it was a
paying investment for them and they
were anxious to see it prosper. But
times have changed since them, it
seems, and we are to go through this
summer without any other amusement
save the band in the plaza once q
week" And he strobe off down the
street deep in thought of how the

more than the lions shore to alleviate
this dire want and distress.
They make it their duty to enquire
into all such cases that may come to
their ears, and this is not all, for they
seek out those who are needy and do
their best to stay their misery.
In numerous instances have they
found people, once happy and prosper
QUE, wrapped in the thrOes of death
and whom careful attention and patient
anxiety could not rid of their affiic-
tiOns.
One particularly sad case has Just
come to light VIII ich is touching in its
pathos.
In a room on Fourth street was
found woman sick with q disease
that the doctors say is incurable. The
floor of the room was bare, no pictures
were on the walls, but in one corner
was pallet on which the sick woman
lay, and by her side pitcher of water.
She had seen better days; the time
was when she had q home of her own,
a loving husband and dear baby girl.
But discussions sprang up in this
seemingly happy family; her husband
took to drink, he beat her, then de-
serted her.
Left to her own frsil resources she
struggled on as best she could till dis
ease took away her child.
Then she gave up. Life was not
worth living and the conflict was too
hard for her to bear.
Privations and toll caused q natural
ly weak constitution to fail and con-
sumption took its fatal grip on the poor
soul.
Thus these good Samaritans found
her too proud to ask for help from the
people with whom she had once asso-
ciated.
It is needless to tell Of the anxious

They little know that right among us
are Americans who lack the necessities
of life and who often are driven to
severe straits to procure enough to

it, need but look for themselves In the

Sufficient be it to say that when
death claimed her for his own, she was
not without friends and those who
would sacrifice much for her sake.

but look for themselves and they will
find subjects for their chsrity, for Ell

A QUEER OLD WORLD.

II virtue would allure like sin
How easily might goodness win.
II right went laughing by like wrong
The devil would lose half his throng.
II day sought pleasure like the night
Dawn need not blush to face the light.
But virtue seems so cold and proud
That merry sin attracts the crowd.
And night has such solemn air
Men follow wrong, the debonair.
And care so eats the daytime up
At night they seize mad folly's cup
And drink forgetfulness till dawn
And so the queer old world goes Oh.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
