THE GALVESTON HORROR

The Galveston, Texas storm hor-
ror, was one of the greatest storm
disasters that has struck this cOun-
try. The storm was started out
among the islands of the West In
dies and gathered force as it cross
ed the Gulf of Mexico and struck
the Texas coast. Galveston seems
to have been about the storm cen
ter. The last weather record made
at that city gave the velocity OF
the wind at S5 miles an hour.
Such a wind blowing in from the
sea raised a wall of water aud roll
ed it over Galveston, which at the
highest place was only six feet
above high tide. The wonder is
that the whole city was not wash
ed away. There were 6S, 900 peo-
pie in the town. Of that number
some seven thousand are dead and
missing; fifteen thousand people are

Our nation is passing through grea
political crisis, Whether our nationa
policy is to be one Of territorial expan
sion, or whether we are to remain aloot
from international complications, is the
supreme question confronting our Con
gress. The attention Of the world is di.
rected toward us. The deliberations OF
eur Congress have come to be of inter
national Importance.
But this consideration affects only
our external welfare. Our domestic
problems are not one bit less import
ant. We have serious questions before
US that relate only to home interests.
Chief among them is the health of our
people. Catarrh has already become a
national curse. Its ravages extend from
ocean to ocean. More than one-half of
the people are affected by 1t. 1t has be-
come such serious matter that 1t has
passed the boundaries of the medical
profession and become a national cues
ton. Senators are talking about it;
congressman are discussing 1t. They
are not only considering the extent and
chronic nature Of the disease, but the |
possibility Of finding a national remedy |

HOLLOW HORN.

Several days ago gentleman il
King George county had seventy-fivc
head Of his cattle dehorned and the
operation revealed the startling fact
that seven-two head of that number
had hollow horns. The operation was
begun for the purpose of depriving
some "spitsful' animals of their horns
so that herd Of about $50 could be
penned and fed together without dan
ger OF being "gored, but when "hollow
horn was discovered with those select.
ed to be dehorned, the operation was
continued with the result that only 3
cattle out of the so, enty-fve had SCUM
and hearshy horns. For some months
past a number of cattle. have died in
various sections, and no one has been
able to satisfactorily account for the
cause OF the deaths. Investigation re-
vealed no signs of epidemic or conta-
, ious disease, and the deaths were not
confined to any particular community
'r locality. The theory is now advanced
hat the animals may have died from |
he effects of hollow horn, and that
his affection may have been caused BY |
intense suffering during the hard
weather. last winter.
