A GENIUS.
Lewis Nixon, the Shipwright, Has Sharp
 Eyes for Details.

Lewis Nixon, designer of the Unit ed States battleships Oregon, Indiana and Massachusetts, is one of the shrewdest "bosses" in the profession of shipbuilding, according to one of his colleagues. When a250-foot steel tunnel was recently launched at the Crescent shipyard in Elizabethport, N. J., the tall, athletic form of the former naval officer could be seen darting hither and thither among the timbers and through the crowd, per sonally experimenting the work.
 "There goes one of the greatest geniuses in the profession" com mented a fellow engineer who had come to view the remarkable expert ment of the tunnel launch. 'sHe is still very young, which is to his ad- vantage But that chap can walk through his yard just seeming ly without raising his eyes from the ground-and in that one trip he will see more to kick and to raise Cain about than all his superintendents and foremen would see in a weeks travel. Shipwrights, like poets, are born, and Nixon is one of the few. "- N. Y. Times.

Moved to Arkansas.

I. NJ. and Mrs. Ligon left Satur- day night for Pittsburg, where they will remain two or three weeks and then go on to their tu- ture home in Conway, Ark. Mrs. Ligon goes to her old home and it is only necessary to say that she stayed in Abilene long enough to cause keen regret to a large num- Der of warm friends won here that she should so soon leave them. Mir. Ligon was in business in Abil- enc four years or more, and with out flattery we say that no young man ever won warmer friends or more of them in this town. He is the personi6cation of honor and in teerity, attends to his own affairs to the exclusion of other peoples business, and the Reporter wants to commend him to his new neigh bors as a young man entitled to their respect and confidence in ev- cry way. He is the same quiet, courteous, considerate gentleman ,6s days i'll the year. We give him up with much regret, but wish him success in his new home, call down upon him and his fair young wife the choice blessings oi health, happiness and prosperity. If they should ever see it to their interests to come back to Abilene they will be warmly welcomed. - Abilene (Texas) Daily Reporter.
 Conway is pleased to welcome this young couple. MT. Ligon will engage i'll business with w. M. Harrell & O., of this city.

The Hall of Fame.

The Hall of Fame, established in New York by Miss Helen Gould was dedicated May 20. Among the great Americans to whom tab lets in this Hall of Fame were ded- icated are Washington, Franklin, Lincoln, Jefferson, Webster, Clay, Charming, John Marshall, John Adams, Emerson, and Henry Ward Beecher.
 It is interesting to observe that while we dedicate tablets to the memory of these men, the nation they served so we'll has lost sight of their teachings and repudiate their counsels. In an address de- livered on this occasion, Senator Depew, perhaps unwittingly, de- scribed the spirit of the times when he said.
 We have now no Tennysons, nor Longfellows, nor Hawthornes, nor Emersons. Perhaps 1t is be- cause our Michael Angeles are planning tunnels under rivers and through mountains for the connec- ton of vast systems of railways, and our Raphaels are devising some novel method for the utiliza- ton of electrical power; our Shakespeares are forming gigantic combinations of corporate bodies; our Tennysons are giving rein to fancy and imagination in wild speculations ill stocks and our Hawthornes and Emersons have abandoned the communings with the revelations of the spirit and soul which lift their readers to a vision of the higher life and the joy of its inspiration, to exploit mines and factories. :"
 Of what value is it that we en- shrine the memory of these great men while we are repudiating their teachings? If these men rightfully have place in the Hall of Fame, it must be because of the service they rendered their country and the lessons they left for their coun- trvmen. .-Bryan's Commoner.

Some people seem to think tha, Grover Cleveland is the only man Ill the Democratic party suitable for president. If such was fact the party would be in an awful bad fix.-Johnson County Herald.
 Some people seem to take pleas ure III sneering at your uncle Gro yer, but the fact remains undisput- ed that ill forty years he was the only man who ever pulled the Democratic party out of the hole. It IS a further fact, equally indis- putable, that those who came after him departed from the theories up on which he won, and that they have been everlastingly gaffed ev- cry time they poked their heads up.-Ft Smith Elevator.
 He pulled the party out of one hole and put in another and the last condition was nearly as bad as the first.

President O'Connell of the In ternational Association of Machin- ists said the other day that he re- garded the machinists' strike as practically won.
 Even if an order should be is sued at this time, directing all men out to return to work on the old basis, he said, the e-hour day would be won.
 The movement has been at tended with every success, and, in many respects, is the most re- markable struggle on record. There are now only 5000 men out of work and agreements are being signed every day reducing this number.
 It has not been strike. It has simply been cessation of work. A strike, to the mind of the public, means riot and bloodshed. The machinists have had none of this. It is true there have been one or two cases of assault, but these are liable to occur at any time and can not be chargable to the machin- ists.
 The first financial aid to be re- ceived by the machinists since their strike began was received last Tuesday by President O'Con- nell in the form of check tor S5 900 from the American Fedora ton of Labor.

April lowing to the peculiar condi-

pine commission has about decided to
organize departmental government,
covering all the islands south of the

A uniform general provincial law is
impossible of application in the extreme

government, except in cases where they
have foresworn allegiance to Dattos, the
sultan, and become subjects of the
United States, and for the further rea-
son of the multiplicity Of races and

interests.
The commission will appoint a de-
