THE POET BYRON

Long ago sung the value and praises
of soda water.
"When you wake with headache
Ring for your valet-bid him quickly
bring
Some hook and soda water, then you'll
know
A pleasure worthy Xcrxes, the great
king.
For not the blest sherbet, sublimed
with snow,
Nor the first sparkle of the desert
spring,
Nor Burgundy in all it's sunset glow,
After long travel ennul, love or slaugh-
ter
Vie with that draught of hook ard
soda water"
But no such soda water as Lasaaris
& 90. keeps, drawn sparkling from an
Arctic fountain, was known then. Try
some.

CIVIL LAW IS RESTORED
MARTIAL RULE IN GALVESTON NO
LONGER NFCFSSS AIRY

MARTIAL RULE IN GALVESTON NO
LONGER NECESSARY.
GALVESTON, Tex, Sept 2O.-This
! evening Mayer Jones proclaimed that
martial law should cease at nooa tomor-
row, and the civil authorities would as
sume direction of municipal affairs This
was done at the suggestion Of Gen.
Scurry, who expressed the belief that
conditions had reached such a stage that
tho civil authorities were able to cope
with the situation. This, however. does
not mean the immediate withdrawal of
the militia. They are to cooperate with
the city officials in the enforcement of
order, and will continue on duty as a.
part OF the government.
Since martial law has prevailed in
Galveston good order has resulted It
was feared in some quarters that when
it became known that the military had
given way to civil authority, the looting
and robbery which began after the storm
and continued until the establishment
of martial law, would recommence. The
military forces will be used as g. check
on this kind Of crime, however, and will
in all probability remain here for the
next twenty days. The shooting of ne
eroes by military men for looting has
had most salutory effect, and has in
measure terroriZed the offenders. Still
eilCIC cases Oh IOUOSTy reported QdliN
which are being dealt with severely. The
retirement of Gen. Scurry from supreme
command was wholly voluntary. At a
meeting of the general committee this
evening he appeared before the commit
tee and stated that he desired civil gov
ernment restored, believing it for the
best interests of the city. He said he
thought the time opportune The com
nnittee consented to relieve Cen Scurry
from authority, but insisted that he re-
main here with the military forces. This
he will do.
Labor In Galveston is at a premium.
There is not an idle man in the city
Regardless Of station or position a man
must work. The merchant and his clerk
are working side by side along with the
man who has known nothing but hard
work since the time of his childhood 1t is
all done for the good of Galveston. The
health of the living must be preserved at
any cost. The city must be cleaned and
the dead burned that the survivors may
continue to live. It Is imperative that
the wreckage about the city be cleared
Immediately. The stencil arising from
the bodies beneath the ruins is becoming
unbearable. Today orders were issued
to Impress every able bodied man for
street cleaning service.

Doubt III London as to Russian
Withdrawal.

LONDON, Sept. q, 4 a. m.-Such Pc
kin dispatches as appear this morning
tend to confirm the suspicious regarding
the attitude of Russia already expressed
by Dr. Morrison, the correspondent Of the
Times at the Chinese capital.
The Daily News prints telegram al.
most identical with those advices to the
Express, from Pek.n but adding that in
the opinion of the correspondent. the Rus
slams only desire to induce the other
powers to withdraw.
nc Morning Posts Pekin representa-
tive. wiring Sept. 1S. expresses the same
opinion. He declares that NJ De Giers
will not go unless the other ministers
go also. The Russian legation. he as
serts had prerared to go, but re-
versed its intention, pending Instructions.
This delay he thinks due in all proba-
bility to the non-departure of the other
legations.
The Pien Tsin correspondent of the
Daily Mail, referring to the attack on
the Pei Tang and Lu Tai forts, already
captured by the allies after heavy
losses according to advices received al

was demanded at o'clock on Tuesday

Gov. Roosevelt said in part:
1--WE have never had a movement for
expansion in this country where there
was not a large number of excellent peo-
pie who hold UP their hands in horror
and predict the death of the country.
Right after the Revolutionary war some
people of the seaboard Atlantic states
objected strongly to taking in the Ohio
valley. One of the foremost statesmen
OF my own state predicted what would
happen II the white Savages should take
possession of the Ohio valley, when un-

Ihen we came to the Mississippi.
When President Jefferson, in 1903, ac-
quired by treaty and purchase the land
beyond the Mississippi all that region
beyond the Rocky mountains, he ac-
Quired it just exactly as President Nc
Kinley acquired the Philippines, and then
a number of excellent gentlemen said
that meant the final ruin of the coun-
try. A senator from Massachusetts,
said if the worst snould come to pass,
and We should ever have states erected
beyond the Mississippi, that no man
could imagine the horror that would come
and the confusion that would follow,
when we saw senators and representa-
tives from the banks of the Missouri ani
