American Physical DEVELOPMENT.

American Physical Development.
DR.. Angelo Mosso while in America
| made minute study of the system Of
physical education, particularly as car
ried out at the athletic clubs Of the
American seats of learning. Referring
to the Boston gymnasium, he says:
"The interest and the wonder with
which these academic adjuncts inspire
me awaken sense of melancholy when
think how far we in Italy are removed
from such perfection. 1t Is enough"
he adds. ito look at the passersby in
the American streets to be convinced
how much more developed and strong
they are than our compatriots. The
boys and girls are in point Of physique
far superior to ours. All the public
takes interest in physical exercises, ev-
cry journal being compelled to report
athletic competitions, regattas, foot
ball encounters, golf matches and such
like, because its readers have even a
greater enthusiasm for those topics
than for the strife of parties. America
teaches us by the plainest and most
impressive of examples that physical
education may be carried to perfection
without any military object. In the
United States no one dreams Of becom-
Ing soldier. If military force is re-
quired, it is provided, as in Great Brit
ain. by voluntary enlistment. Never
theless America and the British isles
are precisely the two countries where
physical education has reached its
highest development My admiration
for this new world is all the greater
when 1 reflect that its civilization is
that of the future, which, even for
Italy, will have better days in etore'-

4 ONE MORE BIG LOT
Fifty Cars of Cattle Probably Wind
Up the Cuban Season.

The prices now obtaining in the Ha-
vsna market are such that it is impro-
bable that any further shipments will
be made from here or through here for
Q month. The only exceptions will be
certain lots of cattle already under
contract.
1t Is said that, near Havana, Utgut,
of New Orleans, has now some 1000
cattle pastured, and those are amply
sufficient to supply the needs of that
city for some time to come.
"A big shipment to 90 through Ell
Paso is one of fifty cars which comes
through this next week and will be
shipped by the Benemella company
from Mexico. This Ia q COZ tract lot of

shipment there are no others in sight

NEW BOND ELECTION
Takes Place On Tuesday-Issue Will
Probably Carry.

On Tuesday next, January 9th, the
new bond election made necessary by
the refusal of the attorney general to
approve the bonds voted at the last
election, takes place. The question will
be on issuing bonds to the amount OF
500, 900 for sewer purposes and of &c.
900 to complete the city hall.
81 think there will be no difficulty in
carrying the city for the bonds," said
Mayor MagOffin today. Certainly
there ought not to be. We have the
work completed almost, and we need
the money on the new city hall.
= II am convinced that it would be inn
possible to duplicate the city hall as it
now stands for 500, 900 more than it has
actually cost usso far"
1t is believed that, in this instance,
every requirement of the law has been
complied with, and the bond issue will
probably carry again, as there is no
logical opposition to it.

Fig Culture In the South.

A new experiment in California is
the culture of the Smyrna fig, and Sec
rotary Of Agriculture Wilson is said to
believe that this will be another in
dustry for successful development in
the south, resulting perhaps in mil
Hons of dollars annually. No doubt
he is aware that figs have been cult
waited on a small scale in Georgia for
many years and have been found to
thrive in the open even as far north as
the Shenandoah valley, in Virginia.
Doubtless the Smyrna fig is superior
to the varieties that have already been
grown in the south.-Macon Telegraph.

What sIeepIe.sne.s Means.

Medical scientists have now demon
strated that brain cell actually loses
part of its substance during action,
says Science Siftings. The cell of the
exhausted brain, instead of being
plump and full of nervous matter, is
found to be followed out, or "vacuo-
lated" a cavity having formed with
out its substance, which has become
filed with water. This means that a
part Of the cell substance has been
actually consumed, precisely as coal
is consumed when one gets heat from a
furnace. 1t has been found that if an
animal whose brain cells are thus ex-
hausted be permitted to sleep its cells
readily recuperate, and new material
is supplied from the blood until the
cell is as good as new. The brain
Of person, therefore, who is beset by
sleeplessness is in the condition of a

DAMAGE SUIT.
Against The 6. H. & S. A. Raiir DAD
Begun In Judge 6oggin's Court.

The case of John Csno against the
G. 81. & s. A. railroad for personal
damages was begun in Judge Goggin g
court yesterday afternoon. Cano was
employed as "a section hand on the
railroad. He alleges that on Septem-
Der 22nd, 1897, he was directed by tn g
superinte 1de 1t in charge of q machine
belonging to the railroad for straight
ening rails, to put into it q large rail.
He did so, he Gays, and the machine
not working properly, he was ordered
to adjust the rail. While doing so
other employees of the company moved
the rail so as to crush Cano's hand. He
alleges negligence on the part of the
compauy's employees and claims that
the company should have proper ma
chinery for handling the rails. Yes
terday afternoon and most of this
morning were consumed in securing

NEW ALPINE DIVISION
Will Be Established As Soon As En-
dblinq Act Is Passed.

When the legislature meets this
month it will be asked to pass a special
act enabling the G.. 81. & S. A. Rail
way company to secure the necessary
land adjoining the Alpine section on the
east for rouudhouse purposes. This
move will be necessary on account of
the section of land having been one of
many to revert to the state and not be-
ing, therefore, allowed to be decided to
q corporation. This is the only draw
back toward the making of the divis-
ion, and when it is remedied work will
be commenced on the roundhouse.
