Her beads within the converts narrow cells
Ny soul takes heed Eot those dull beads she
loves,
Although she cons them with such eager eyes:

And aid the yearning spirit to arise.
And feel the years that come and go
Lift larger life and nobler deed.
And that is why ! count my birthdays so
And do not the feet years speed;
Each a blessing like the meek nuns prayers

TILEFISH.

the similarity between them and bass.
The fish weigh from to 90 pounds,
and their meat is hard and firm.
One OF the dealers i'm speaking of the
tilefish and the possibility of its being
placed on the market said that extern
sive as our list of edible fish is ut pres
ent the public will gladly welcome any
thing new. He believed that the tile
fish If it could be introduced would be
classed as fancy fish and would sell
for - cents per pound. The great diff
ficulty is the distance the fishermen
would have TO go to catch them.
Captain J. W. Collins. who has writ
ten an interesting history of the tile
fish. says that 1t has many peculiarities
OF its own and even to the casual OBJ
server presents features which differ
essentially from those possessed by
any other species. 1t has general re-
semblance To tie dolphin. the body be-
ing well formed. quite stout ut the tall,
like the salmon. and the general make
up OF the fish indicates that il Is a rap
Id and active swimmer. well fitted to
pursue and capture it's food or to es-
cape from its enemies.
Its distinguishing characteristics,
however. are the nuchal crest or adj
pose dorsal fin just In front of the spi-
nous dorsal and the peculiar color W hich
IL exhibits. being so profusely spotted
with patches of greenish yellow that 1t
received the name of leopard fish"
from the fishermen who were the first
to capture il.
The tilefish when caught on hand
lines are fully as active as cod in their
movements. When caught on trawl
lines. they are said to exhibit less &C
tivity than the cod.
The tilefsh were first discovered
about 1850. but were supposed to have
become extinct in 1850.
The action of the fish commission In
sending the fish here is warmly COM
mended by the dealers. Boston is con-
sidered the most important fish market
in the country, and 1t was probably on
this account that the fish were sent
here for examination and trial.

CLOUDBURST SWEEPS STREETS
OF LITTLE TEXAS
VILLAGE.
Two Heroes Die in Rescue Work-Be-
lief That Many Were Carried Away
In the Valley Below-Tornado
at Peoria-Cyclone in Texas
Heavy Rains.

Coleman, Tex, July 16.-Fifteen lives
are known to have been lost in a
cloudburst here today. Ten bodies
have been recovered, but only two
have been identified. They are:
Joseph Spath, leading merchant of
the village.
John Fuleisstine.
1t is feared that many more lives
were lost in the valley below Coleman.
The %cloud-burst, which followed the
three days Of unprecedented rainfall,
caused Ford"s creek to burst its banks
and rush through Coleman, a village
Of less than 1000 inhabitants.
Bewildered citizens, reused from
their slumbers, rushed into the streets
and were washed away. Many were
saved by catching hold of pieces of
timber and navigating them into ed
dies formed by the swift current, where
they were drawn ashore.
Spath and Fuleisstine managed to
mount their horses. They dashed in
to the water and swan their horses to
a house where four little girls were
screaming for help. Each rescued two
of the children, whom they took upon
their horses. The animals were swept
away, however, in a noble effort to
stem the swift current, and all we're
drowned.
Water has flooded the tracks Of the
Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe railway for

The preliminary examination of the
four Greeks, who were accused Of rails
ing time checks issued by Contractors
Roman & Scott near Tie Siding, was
held before Justice Hayford this morn
ing. The trial was. a tedious one. the
services of an interpreter being requir-
ed, as the accused claimed they were
unable to speak English. Three of the
Greeks were held to the district court.
while a fourth, George Janas, the one
who was captured in Cheyenne, was
discharged, it being shown conclusive
ly that he had nothing to do with the
crime, but only happened to be present
when the checks were presented at
the office of Fitzpatrick Brothers &
Collins. The three men who were
bound over claim that the fourth men,
Der of the gang, who has not been
captured, did the crooked work on the
time checks, and that they did not
know the amounts had been raised.
This man is named Nico. His pay
check, which called for $40 more than
he was entitled to, was found in the
possession of the three who were ar
rested at Sherman. The Greeks were
unable to give bond and are now in
Jail awaiting trial.

AS 1t Is Miss Alice Is in a very critical
state, her injuries being Internal and
of such a nature that all that night and
the following day and night she swoon-
ed away repeatedly. Miss Kittie had
her Jaw broken and one side Of her face
and head completely scraped and in
addition the ligaments were torn loose
from one knee and her limbs frightfully
bruised and scratched.
The young ladies are resting easier
at this writing, but it will be many a
day before the traces OF the accident
will have disappeared.
Attorney Hardin was slightly bruis-
ed and one hand was considerably in
jured.
The party, one and all, feels very
sorry for Leslie as he was in no way
careless or to blame, and he being the
driver feels very keenly the serious
ness of the affair.
The Lime Kiln hill" is noted as the
most dangerous piece Of road on the
way to the mountains, very steep and
fringed with huge boulders, a sharp
turn in the center, where the accident
occurred, a wheel passing over a boul-
der as the coach cramped, threw It
over. The accident occurred soon az
ter one of the young ladies had remark
ed, How slowly Leslie Is driving"
The sympathy of the entire communi-
ty is extended to the Misses Sheldon in
their afniction, which is far more SER
ious than that which befell the other
members Of the party who are now al
most recovered.
