Six months ago it became necessary
TO make changes in the bylaws of the
Association in order to carry on the
work in the Castle Home. These chan
ges were subject to the approval of the
Association at this annual meeting,
but as, unfortunately, so many of the
officers were out Of the City there was
not quorum present; so the secretary
was instructed to call an adjourned
meeting in the near future.
The Association voted to have the re-
ports and papers printed in the Annual
Calendar. The secretary then read the
names of the committee for the new
year. which had been voted upon by
the Board of Supervisors previously.
Mrs. Hyde reminded those on the COM
mittee of their duties: visiting the
schools once a month, under the direc-
] ton of their chairman and reporting
through the chairman at the regular
meetings of the Board OF Supervisors.
Mrs. Coleman asked that all officers
remember their annual fee-a little

THE STATE UNIVERSITY
Some Interesting Facts About the
Student Body.

Elsewhere in this paper may be
found the announcement of the 18th
annual session of the university of
Texas. The institution has just clos
the past session Oil students have en-
rolled for the regular work, beside III
matriculates in the summer school
now become permanent feature.
Omitting duplicates, 1O41 Individuals
have enjoyed the opportunities of our
state university during the past II
months.
Its record OF steady growth and pros
perity is almost unprecendented In the
annals of American colleges. And yet
the promise OF the future is not less
favorable. Recently additions to the
buildings were completed, making ae-
com cd atoms for almost twice the num-
Der of students enrolled this session !;
new teachers have been employed !;
courses of study added: q new president
has been elected who knows the univer-
ty even as he knows the temper and de-
sires of the people of the state. Above
all, the institution is being conducted
along lines that harmonize with accept
e. traditions and opinions. 1t is emil.
nently the peoples university, and
the people, approaching these condi-
tions, will give it hearty support; and,
ultimately they will endow it without
stint and without limit.
There were 2l0 young women stu
dents in the different departments of
the university during the past year.
Their average age was Il years A
mum Der of them are taking the regular
medical course. The entire school of
nursing ia composed Of young women
students.
Students are registered In the uni
versisy from nearly $50 different
counties of the state. Twenty one
students are registered from other
states, coming from Massachusetts
Illinois, Minnesota, Mississippi, In,
dian Territory, Missouri, louisiana

tragedy at Colonia Disz, Mexico, July
10, when Oliver Gruwell was shot aud
killed by Jerome Adams. The partic-
ulars of the affair was received yester-
day in Juarez by Messrs. Pierce and
Williams. From what can be learned

Adams, who was on horseback. drew
his pistol aud shot Gruwell, the bullet
passing through the lstter's arm and
taking effect near his heart.
Adams Immediately started In the
direction of the United States line near
Dog Springs. A mounted posse start
ed in pursuit at once, and at one time
got near enough to the murderer
to take q shot at him. Adams return
ed the fire, and running fight was
kept on until his ammunition WAS gone,
when he put spurs to his horse. and fu-
ally effected his escape. He is about 19
year old, nearly elk feet tall and power
fully built, and those who know him
say he will not be taken without
aght. 1t Is believed he has crossed
into the United States, but Mexican
and Mormon officers are searching for
him.

IN KENTUCKY,

The situation in Kentucky APP
pears from this distance to have i'm
proved little. At least, there has
been no battle between the opposing
forces yet, and there has been an eff
fort to have legal settlement Of the
difficulty. The legal advisers of Cover
nor Taylor met the legal advisers of
the Democrats and proposed to submit
the claims of the rival governors to the
Kentucky court of appeals, the Re
pubicans having the right to go to the
United States Supreme court for final
settlement. The Democrats wanted the
matter finally adjudicated in the State
courts. No agreement could be reach
ed but door was left open for further
negotiations, which will, it is to be
hoped, take place and bring peace and
good order.
Perhaps the shooting of Goebe may
turn out to be blessing in disguise.
1t will if 1t calls the sober attention
of the Kentuckians to some things
which in their blind and fierce partisan
ship they have been forgetting.

present there is a great dearth of coal
in Russia, the native mines no longer
being able to keep pace with the rapidly
growing needs of the metallurglcal
works and railroads. The demand for
coal has much increased of late years
owing to the increasing dearness or
wood. NJ White intends to relieve the
situation by a cautious diminution Oh
the duty on foreign coal. Within the
last ten years the government by
means of purchase, has reduced the
number of private railroad companies
from forty-two to nine, the former
chronic def1cite in railroad finance have
given place to increasing profits since
1895, and the network of lines in the
Russian empire now covers total dis
lance of 36,S57 miles, exclusive of the
branch through Manchuria, of which
297 miles are already open for traft1c

Miss Susan B. Anthony has not only
emancipated herself from the tyranny
of Man, but she has also been Jealous
In season and out of season In encour-
aging and helping her sisters to eman-
cipate themselves from said tyranny
She has fought long and good fight,
and she feels entitled to live somewhat
less strenuously than she has been liv-
ing. So she will resign the office Of
president of the National American
Woman Suffrage Association. She
makes an interesting summary of what
has been accomplished during her cru
sade of many years. We have, she says,
everything we want except equal politi-
cal rights. She mentions among the
things gained since she became an agi-
tator employments, education, profess
sions, all open to women; school cuff
frage in nearly every State, municipal
suffrage in one and equal suffrage in
four.
Woman has certainly spread herself
and Is still spreading. Miss Anthony
has a right to feel encouraged as she
looks back over her agitating years. AS
she has lately indicated that she doesn't
hate Man, Notwithstanding her long
contest with him, Man has a right to
himself on the fact that
he has succeeded In making as good an
on her as he has. 1t speaks
well fofhim that she THINKS he is useful
In some ways.

ANOTHER S7OEI,

In his report to the Gear, accompany

White, the minister of finance, tells a
story which differs much from some of
the stories that are told about Russia
He remarks that the successful execu-
ton Of the budgets of the last few years
with excuses of ordinary revenue show
that "at the roots the economical life of
Russia is healthy" notwithstanding
harvest failures, the great outlay on
the Siberian railroad, the unfavorable
Condition Of the money market and 9TH
er temporary Inconvenience. He is very
emphatic on the extraordinary growth
of Russian industries, which altogether
show the enormous increase Of total
value from SAL 900, 900 to 1,S16, OOO, 900 ru-
bles during the twenty years ending
1887, while manufactured goods have net
only increased in volume, but also in
quality Metaliurgcal work and min
ing have, in particular, made great
strides. During the twenty-one years
from 1877 to 1898 inclusive the output of
coal rose from 1,774,193 tons to 1902 ,25S
tons; pig-iron from 370.S6 tons to 2,161,-

The moral drawn by the Manufac-
turer from this state of things is we'll
worth attention. 1t is this The con-
ditions which account for such dispar-
ity in banking facilities as are revealed
in the foregoing comparison are con-
spicuous factors in the problem Of ma

BILE Of attainment the proposal of some
enthusiastic currency reformers, viz. a
banking system which will furnish
equal facilities to and make credit
equally available in all portions of the
country and distribute the loanable
capital of the country SO as to meet the
needs of all sections. This might be
possible In a country of more homogen-
eous conditions than ours, but here and
now 1t is one of the '1ridescent dreams
of financial Utopia, for dissimilar con-
ditions will never yield similar or equal
results in banking any more than in
other realms. The best we can do will
be an approximation to this ideal.

led ends, and such made up are lovely,
the fringe giving the finish for revers
or falling prettily at the yoke edge. Vel
vet in printed squares Is also cold, and
salesfolk declare that velvet waists are
to be part of the summer girls ward
robe. That will be all right for those
who go down to Maine cross the ocean
or take to the mountains and thus avoid
all but velvet shirt waist temperature.
But that means limited sale and con-
tinuance of the original high prices.
These same squares are stunning for
hat trimming, and those of handker-
chief size are wound in stock fashion
about the throat over low linen col
lar, the ends of the handkerchief tying
in front.
Shirt waists are to be had very cheap
and the reason in most cases is that the
waists have yoke backs. The coming
season shirt waists aren't going to have
Jokes. That should be borne in mind
in bordering astonishing bargains In
waists. If your liking for Jokes leads
you to purchase be sure that those you
buy are long WASTED in front, for last
summers waists did not dip in front as
the new ones will. White is the safest
shade, though carefully chosen colors
will be all right. FLORETTE.

that thel palmer cloth dresses are out,
but when the trimming Is extensive it
must be original or be entirely lacking

Two or three of these squares are used
