drant, tap and fire alarm box. The
hydrant can be used for fire purposes,
filling water carts and for street flush

by an individual for domestic water
supply. There is water meter and
siphon at the bottom, by which the
water is shut off from the hydrant,
thus preventing it from freezing.

Japan recently lost one of her vet
eran statesmen in Count Kuroda, pres
ident of the privy council, in his six
tieth year. His death was unexpected
by his family, for, although he had
been i'll for some time, no alarming
symptoms had been observed until
congestion of the brain suddenly car
ried off the noble patient. The de-
ceased was born in the family of a
clansman in Kagoshima in the eleventh
year of tempo (1s4O). Early in life he
came up to Tokyo to study gunnery,
and when the Shogunate government
was making its last struggle for exist
ence he, in conjunction with the late
Toshimichi Okubo and other loyalists,
'espoused the imperial cause. He held
the Office Of court adviser for some
time, and in 1892 again entered the
ministry, occupying the post of min
lister of communications, In 1895 he
was transferred to the presidency Of
the privy council, and in the same year
the grand order Of the Rising Sun and
Paulownia was conferred upon In APP
probation Of his services in connec-
ton with the war Of 1s94-95. During
1896 le was three times appointed
prime minister "ad interim" and IA
that year was given the court title of
the senior grade Of the second rank. -

GALvEsToN's CHURCHES.
It Will Cost Large Sums to Replace
the Buildings.

1t Will Cost Large Sums to Replace
the Buildings.
The church property in Galveston
amounted to $4,000 in value, by far
the larger part of which was owned
by the Roman Catholics. The next
most prominent religious body is the
Baptists, and the third the Episcopali-
ans. The telegraph reports that not
one church is left intact, and through
the various religious bodies word has
gone out for UNCONVENTIONAL help. The
largest Catholic congregation was that
of the Sacred Heart, to which was at
tached St. Mary's university, all in
charge of the Jesuits. The next most
important was the cathedral, in whose
schools the Sisters of st. Dominic,
from the beautiful convent said to
have been destroyed, have long been
the teachers. St. Josephs was the Ger
man Catholic church, and there was
St. Patrick's, in suburb, and the
Holy Rosary for colored people. Be-
sides the Sacred Heart convent, said
to have been wholly destroyed, there
was a st. Angela's convent, st. Jo-
seph's Academy, and St. Mary's in
Urinary and Orphan Asylum. There
were also Sisters of Charity, who have
asylums at Houston and Temple, as
we'll as at Galveston. Of Protestant
work there were six Baptist churches,
two of them colored, and one of the
six with a very handsome edifice The
largest Episcopal church was Trinity,
with above 500 communicates. The
Methodists north, as we'll as south,
and the Presbyterians, north and south
had churches in the city. Disciples of
Christ had also three churches, two of
them, however, quite modest ones.
Galveston has long been famous
among southern cities for the number
of it's religious and philanthropic in
situations, and the amount annually
expended upon their maintenance,
apart from benevolent contributions,
reached about $4,000 year. an I'M
usually large amount in proportion to
it's population.

noises that would have frightened a
more docile horse than the blind mare
ever thought of being. She danced
Scottish hornpipe even while her mas
ter was talking to her, and when he
again urged her forward she seemed
to be disposed to give an exhibition OF
ground and lofty tumbling. Indeed,
as she stood on her hind legs and
paved the air with her forefeet some
one in the crowd suggested that she
was probably circus horse.
Meanwhile the horseless cart was
Mostly pursuing the even tenor of it's
way. Hezekiah glanced over his
shoulder occasionally, but did not seem
to be at all worried. Some men in the
crowd insisted that when the mare be-
gan to come up from behind the ma
chine seemed to make more noise than
at any other time, but it was admitted
that automobiles were contrary crit
tiers" at best and there was no telling
what they would do or when they
would do it.
At the half-mile post 81 broke a
spoke in the right wheel Of his sulky
and Hezekiah was seen to fill his pipe
and light it. After another furlong ST
got down from the sulky and stroked
the blind mares neck and whispered
in her ear while Hezekiah leaned back
in his seat and made pretense of go
ing to sleep. Naturally, this was too
much for the men who were backing
ST. They climbed the fence and rushed
across the field all shouting at once.

insisted.
''If l thought she could jump the
whole machine" answered 81 reflect
lively, I'D get on her back and try it.,
but it amt so easy to make her pass a
slice of hell"
Still he made another trial. He
waited until they were in the home
stretch, and then he came laundering
getting her by before she realized what
was happening. Hezekiah apparently
was oblivious of all that was taking
place, although the crowd, having now
entered thoroughly into the spirit of
the contest, yelled at him vociferously.
He had his pipe in his teeth and was
using an oilcan with one hand while
ne held the lever with the other. The
machine was moving with less noise
than previously, too, and it really
seemed as if the mare would go by it,
but
There was shrill, shrieking whistle.
Calm, undesigning Hezekiah looked
startled. So did the mare.
Fragments of the sulky were picked
up all over the inner Enclosure and
three yards of fence had to be rebuilt
before the track was again used. Ar
for 81, he was able to get out again in
about two weeks, although he walked
