"The information received by a

some sense be likened to and treated
as a privileged Communication, akin

When General Grant was visiting
China, Chester Holcombe, for many
years secretary of the American lega-
ton at Peking, secured for him a privi-
lege never before that time accorded to
a foreigner, the privilege of admission
into the sacred precincts of the Temple
OF Heaven in Peking.
Now, it is contrary to the settled be-
lief of the Chinese to admit a member
of the female sex, old or young, even to
the temple ground, under any circum-
stances. 1t is said that should a Chi
nese guard venture even to carry a
baby girl in his arms within the forbid
den lines he would probably be punish
ed with death. Not knowing of these
restrictions, a number of ladies in Gen.
eral Grants party ventured to follow
him when he visited the sacred edifice.
Realizing the seriousness of this ac-
ton, Mr.. HOlcombe afterward apollo
gized to the emperor's representative
for the conduct of his cOuntrywomen
and was Informed that the intrusion
would be overlooked, but must be kept
as secret as possible, for should the
populace learn of it an antifOreign out
break would be likely TO follow. They
would not forgive such a pollution of
their most sacred building.-LesIie's

Quite q Change,

We note that only a small per
cent of the cotton which is coming
in is sold in the seed as compared
with last year. And We have no
hesitaney in saying as soon as the
ginners all put in or reduce their
presses to the Standard size, 24x54,
that very little or none will be sold
in the seed from that time on.
Some farmers can be fooled some
of the time, but all the farmers
cannot be fooled all the time. 1t
only requires very small amount
of figuring for any cotton raiser
to see that it pays him better to
have his own crop ginned at his
home gin and put up in the most
popular package, the Standard
24x54 bale.

STATEMENT BY MAYOR JONES
OF the Needs and Conditions OF II
Fated Galveston.

OF the Needs and Conditions OF iii
Fated Galveston.
1t is almost impossible to
speak definitely as yet of the needs
of our people. We are broke, the
majority of us. Galveston must
have suffered, in my estimation,
based upon all the reports have,
a loss of $4,000, 900. We now
need money more than anything
From the advice | have receiv-
ed | believe that the shipments of
disinfectants and food supplies
now on the way will be sufficient
to meet the immediate wants. By
the time these are used we shall
have regained our transportation
facilities and stocks of everything.
so that we can use money more ad-
vantageously.
1t is impossible to state how
much money has reached US. We
have received from the governor
at Austin 800, 900 in cash. That
is. from the general fund. Special
contributions have come through
the chamber of commerce, the cot
ton exchange and several other
channels.
We have between 1900 and
5000 men at work searching for
bodies, clearing the streets and
burning debris. OF this work,
which ought to be done as fast as
possible in the interest of the liv-
ing, there is enough to keep 5000
employed for forty days, although
| believe we shall have the princi.
pal streets clear in ten days or two
weeks.
L hesitate to say how much it
will take to put Galveston where
her people can care for themselves.
Certainly $5,OOO,OOO would be a
moderate estimate. There is not
a building but what is damaged.
There isn't a house of those left
standing and which will not have to
be reroOfed. There are very few
that do not need to be Strengthened
on their foundations. If Calves
weston could get $40, 100000 it
would be used judiciously to enable
her people to become self support
ing.

thiest cities of the country. But
our rich people had everything
here. and are crippled. The peo-
pie of moderate means. who had
homes and worked on salaries. are
