' HERE is nothing too good for
Dewey, not even in the matter

WHERE is nothing too good for
Dewey, not even in the matter
of ancestors. Certain enthus-
iastic genealogists have traced his line
age back to Thor, the Saxon god of
thunder. son of Odin and the Earth
In his day and generation he was a big
god-in fact there We're few bigger gods
than old Thor. He held about the same
relations to mankind as the Jove of the
Romans and the Zeus of the Greeks
Thor begat sons and daughters, and
they in turn increased and multiplied
and replenished the earth, and one line
of descent, passing through number
of kings and queens, reaches all the
way to Dewey. Murat Halstead in his
life of Dewey quotes a Mr.. Browning of
Pennsylvania as placing the admirals
ancestral beginning ION the very Dor
ders of mythology" Mr.. Browning
passes the pedigree right through no
less a parsonage than Charlemagne. 1t
is all stated so confidently that no
doubt can exist. A member of the
Dewey family himself has verified the
statement and there it rests.

THE GULF CITIES
A Large Increase in Their Business in the
 Past Four Years.

From the St. Louis Globe Democrat.
 While the principal development of the gulf seaports dates back to the period within the last four years, since January l., 1898, they have made remarkable progress. Since that time docks, an elevator, and yards have been constructed by the nl.-l nois Central at New Orleans, while the Louisville and Nashville has expended a large sum in improvements, such as addi- tional freight yards and warehouses in the same city. The elevator at Pensacola was built in 1898, while additions were made to the docks both at Pensacola and Tampa. Port Arthur really began it's existence as a seaport during the same year. and work was commenced upon the terminals, which, when completed, will include a 700 00O- sushel grain elevator, extensive wharves and warehouses, dry dock 800 feet long, in addition to freight yards, cotton com presses, etc., the total outlay being esti- mated at $2,5O0,000. Additions have also been made to Galveston docks since Janu- ary 1, 1898.
