A Hot Time.

People of thissection who were luggipg
stoves Sunday and Monday and saying un-
complimentary things about the weather
will be interested in knowing that the peo-
pie of Australia are enjoying warm spell
of weather. A dispatch dated January l
says:
New South Wales is having terrible
experience Reports from 4S places-show
temperatures ranging from lO5 to l23
degrees in the shade. The heat is wither-
ing the grass and killing sheep by hundreds
OF thousands.
At Sydney, with the thermometer regis
tering 100 degrees, a dust storm swept
through the city, the wind blowing 40 miles
an hour. The people were compelled to
shut themselves up in their houses and
breathe through wet sponges. In many
parts of the country rivers have dried up,
and in their beds are the bodies of ANIMALS
that went there to drink and, finding no
water, laid themselves in the mud and died.
Bush fires have betn started In many
directions and many ranches have besn de-
stroyed. From all over the colony reports
are arriving of disastrous fires directly
traceable to the terrific heat. A train run
ming into Burke was chased by hurricane
that swept the country like the blast from
furnace.
A greasy tarpaulin covering car of
cbaff caught fire and in five minu'e' the
entire train was in flames while running at
the rate OF so miles an hour to escape the
hurricane. When the train stopped the
passengers jumped from the car windows
to save themselves
Between Der lquin and Broken Hill
the entire country was illumlr at d by cleo
tricity along the steel line of the telegraph
wires. Ball. of fire ten mes more brilliant
than an arc light danced on the wires for
20 minutes.

Chandler on Corruption.

Senator William E. Chandler of New
Hampshire has contributed three or four
remarkable articles which have appeare d
in the columns of the Manchester Union.
He has something to say of corruption and
rottenness in New Hampshire politics, a
subject on which he is amply QUALIFIED to
write because of bi, long public career. He
shows that New Hampshire politicians
used to have a little conscience, but Of late
years intrigue has supplanted honesty, and
money overcomes conviction. The picture
he draws is truly pathetic even if some of
the senator's conclusions are prompted by
motives Of political revenge.

Cuba Libre.

The sovereignty of Cuba passed from
Spain to che United States Sunday. The
ceremony which took place in Havana, was
a simple one; there were some speeches,
the Spanish flag was lowered, and the stars
aud stripes were raised, and salutes we're
fred. Captain General Castillanos in ad-
dressing the American military commission
said: "In complying with the treaty Of
Paris, the agreement of the military CON-
missions of the island and the orders of my
king at this moment of noon, January l,
1899, there ceases in Cuba Spanish SOW
ereignty and begins that of the United
States. In consequence / declare you in
com mand OF the island, with the object that
you may exercise it, declaring to you that
| will be first in respecting it. Peace hav-
ing been established between our respec-
tive governments, promise you to give
all due respect to the United States gov
ernment, and I hope that the good rela-
tions already exiting between our armies
will continue until the termination of the
evacuation Of those under my orders in this
territory"
Major General Brooke speaking for the
United States said: 81 accept this great
trust in behalf Of the government and pres
ident of the United States, and (address.
ing Capt. Gen. Castellanos) l wish you
a pleasant return to your native land. May
prosperity attend you and all who are with
you"

Dewey and Lee.

Henry Watterson, the lone gold demo-
crat of the south. has named George Dewey
of Vermont for president, and Fitzhugh
Lee of Virginia for vice president. He
has named a mighty popular ticket, and if
the democrats can decide on an issue they
ought to make respectable showing in the
next pre,ilen campaign. There is,
however, one hitch in the program; it has
not yet been determined officially that
Dewey is democrat.
Mr.. Watterson thinks be knows Just what
the republicans are going to do, and urges
his fellow democrats to have their lights
trimmed and burning. He says:
Even now the republican leaders, who
rarely tail to take time by the forelock and
who never let go their grip upon the sho, e
line, are planning to make their campaign
of 1900 on the broad principle of national
un fication and expansion. They are not
going TO handicap themselves with any an
cient platform rubbish. High tariff is no
longer wanted by the manufacturer for
whom it was invented. The bloody sbi t,
having served its turn, has gone to the old
clothes basket. The president knows his
bu mess. AT the opportune moment we
.ball see William Mckinley and Joseph
Wheeler march down to the footlights,

4 NEGRO DRAYMAN
Struck by Cotton Belt Switch
 Engine Today.

About noon today Will Groom, a negro drayman employed by J. B. Speers < Co.,, was badly injured by a Cotton Belt switch engine, while crossing the track near the Arling- ton Hotel.
 Groom was driving mule attach ed to draY loaded with sugar. His stubborn animal insisted upon backing and the rear end of the dray was struck by the engine, throwing the driver and animal against the running structure. The engineer put in the throttle and immediately stopped the engine. Groom had a large hole knocked in his head and the mule was badly skinned.
 Croon's wounds were dressed and pronounced pot dangerous. A large quantity of the dfay's cargo was thrown about, but ia all no serious damage was done.
