TEXANS have good deal OF sentt-
ment about the business of their state.
Orators delight to compare it's length
and breadth with the limits OF
little European empires, Kingdoms,
and principalities, and north, south,
east aud west every part OF the state
is proud OF being part of Texas, the
empire state. But there is wide
spread conviction that the day of the
division of the vast acres into separate
states must come. The Waco Times
Herald voices the necessity in an edi-
torial as follows:
Judge Clark reminded the Brszos
river conference that Texans could by
their own motion out their state as
you would q watermelon, and have
down here four states instead of one.
The sentiment today Is unanimously
az ainst anything like that. But as
population increases and interests, both
business and political, begin to clash.
The cry for division will be raised, and
not now be raised, but 1t Is certain to
come Eight seats in the United
States senate is very tempting. And
Ell Psso is as foreign to Texarkana as
Havana The wisdom OF such q step is
not here consldered-only the law of
probability
Ell Pasoans would not lightly ad-
vocate q division Of the state. They are
proud of Texas, but there is reason in
the argument that the state IL too big
and unwieldy to exert its own strength.
It's interests are too diverse, geogra-
phically, commercially. inoustrislly,
and politically. Ell Psso suffers psrti-
culsrly. The city does not have that
importance politically, that it's size
and interests warrant.

Lieut.. Andrup WIN Try to Outline the
Unknown Part of 1t.
There is a part of the east coast OF
southern Greenland that has not yet
ben visited by any explorer. Quite
number of Arctic Investigators have
been north and others south of 1t, but
the region between So degrees and e.
degrees % minutes north latitude, a
distance of about 100 miles, is as yet
entirely unknown. A year ago this UNI
revealed part of the coast was a good
deal longer than 1t now is, but Lieut..
Andrup explored q part of it last year
and now he will return to complete the
work. Andrup is an officer in the Dan
ish royal navy. The work he was de-
tailed to do last year was very sue
cessfully carried out He mapped the
east coast from 65 degrees 45 minutes
to 81 degrees % minutes north lat
itude. He will leave Copenhagen this
month on the steamer Antarctic with
three companions and his intention is
to 60 ashore near the sixty-ninth par
allel, and will then travel south be-
tween the island and the coast ice.
His destination is Angmagsalik (65
degrees As minutes), the only settle-
ment in east Greenland. During this
journey he will pass all along the UNI
explored coast. While he is on this
mission a party of five naturalists on
the Antarctic will travel north to the
entrance to Scoresby sound for the
purpose Of studying natural history
and exploring the northern fiords II
the condition of the ice permits. At
the end of August the Antarctic will go
to Iceland to take on a supply of coal,
and then will proceed to Angmagsalik
to meet Lieut.. Andrup. 1t may be that
the ice will prevent Andrup from
reaching that station this fail. In this
case he will have to camp where win
ter overtakes him and will resume his
route toward the south next year
Arctic ice experts are very much afraid
that the ice conditions will not be
favorable this season, and some Of
them predict that Andrup will not be
able to go as far south as Angmagsa-
Xix, but that he will be compelled, like
Lieut.. Ryder in 1891, to winter on the
bleak coast.--New York Sun.

AFRICAN DIAMONDS.

First Discovered by an Irishman, John
O'Rellly.
Mr.. John O'Reilly, who had occasion
IN the winter of 1867 to do business in
the Hopetown District Of Griqualand
West on the other side Of the Vaal
river, first discovered diamonds in
South Africa. He passed a night at
the house Of Schalk van Niekerk, a
Dutch farmer While bartering with
the Boer and his wife O'Reilly's at
tention was attracted by game the
children were playing, being particu-
larly struck with the peculiar trans
parency of one of the pebbles used in
the game. Though O'Reilly had never
seen a diamond in the rough he ex-
pressed an opinion that the pebble
played with by the children was really
the precious gen. The farmer ridi-
culed the idea, saying O'Reilly might
have it If he cared for the rubbish,
adding that there were plenty more OF
them in the river clay. O'Reilly accept
ed it on the understanding that IL it
turned ont to be diamond the farm
er should receive half the sum. AT
Coles6urg it was submitted to experts,
most of whom denied it being of much
value, bu, Or. Atherstone, OF Grahams-
town, denounced it to be a veritable
diamond Weighing 2315 karats and
worth $780, The then governor OF
the Cape, Sir Philip Wodehouse,
bought it for that sum. Diamonds
a|.erwards were found in the mud
walls of native huts, and this led to the
opening of the dry diggings where now
stand Du Toits Pan, De Beers, Kim
berley, Bultfontein and the Premier
