grand total of the value of the mineral
products from Texas, including all the
returns down to the close of 1898, is
$31 1893 $50. OF this amount coal and
clay products represent a value of over
$19,000.000, silver of $685. 900, petro-
leum 81 ,4S1, $50, and pig iron $1.552.2 .275.
1t will surprise many to know that the
total value of the mineral waters pro-
duced in this state is $721 1888, and that
the value of limestone goes up to 5000, :
SlS. 1t has taken me quite a while to
get al lthis matter together and ar
ranged properly.
IF you can do so would be glad to
have from you a statement of the an
nual value of the mineral business in
Ell Paso. What does it represent in
dollars and cents?
While this bill is pending 1 cannot
get away, but I shall certainly take
| the first opportunity of visiting your
city and vicinity. Can you tell me any
thing as to the reported discovery of
| tin about Is miles north of Ell Paso on
lands belonging to or controlled by
Mr. c. R. Morehead?"

SERIOUS DISASTER
Natives BrutaIIy Muti'ated
the Bodies of Uncle Sans
Brave Boys After
they Had Fallen.

MANILA, P. l., Feb. 2.-American
troops fell into a disastrous ambush
and suffered the first serious disaster
for some time.
While crossing the river Tuesday
night Lieutenant Hicken and a detach-
ment of company M, "a tn regiment,
were surprised by the insurgents.
They were attacked in the front and
rear, and before they escaped from
these surroundings, five Americans
were killed, and four wounded. and two
who disappeared arc supposed to be
dead.
The Americans gave to the insur-
gents as good as they sent and it is
believed that their loss is quite heavy.
A detachment of reinforcements was
sent to Lieutenant Hicken and the en-
emy was driven to the bushes.
Several Of the bodies of the soldiers
of both sides were recovered and those
of the Americans woW~ found To be
frightfully mutilated.
A strong detachment, has been sent
after the retreating Filipinos.

POPE MOURNING THE QUEEN.

Mgr. Ingeli. private secretary of the
pope, says no sovereign's death caused
his holiness such profound emotion as
that of Queen Victoria. He always had
the most affectionate regard for her
majesty and she for him. Letters
were exchanged between them as re-
cent as last December. The pope re-
CARDS her death as an almost ire
parable loss to Christianity, she hav-
ing contributed more than any other
monarch to the triumph of Christian
sentiments and moral virtues. The
pope is said to be already engaged on
a memoriam poem. He is convinced
that the death of Queen Victoria is a
solemn notice to him to prepare for his
own end.

THE SAN CARLOS DAM.

The committee on Indian affairs of
the senate considered and favorably re-
ported an amendment providing $780,
600 for the beginning of work on the
San Carlos reservoir in Arizona. If
this amendment is made part of the
Indian appropriation bill, it will afford
work for the starving Pima Indians,
and will be the commencement of one
the arid region. one, too, which will
perhaps best demonstrate the practi-
cability and excellence of the national
irrigation policy

regular" democratic paper, also
published in the city, says in sooth-
ing way concerning Magoffin:
Mayor Magoffin, has unequivocally
decided not to become a candidate for
reelection. No one has just right to
question the sincerity of the decision
he has expressed so repeatedly in re-
ply to the solicitation of his best
friends and supporters who have
stood by him when it counted; ard as
much as there might exist difference
of opinion between the mayor and 9TH
ers, he has always been regarded as
a positive man and it is hardly fair
to charge him with cheap peanut poll
tical methods of saying to the public:
Il will not accept any nomination"
upon the one hand and quietly prompt
the boys to work for him, upon the
other. His decision is wise and prop
err For him to listen to wire pullers
who want to hold on to public pap,
would place him in a position not to
be desired by a man of common sense.
No, we do not believe Mayor Magoffin
is playing "hooky' with the public
and much less so with his friends.

get within a mile of Victoria station.
Troops began arriving and 5000 drove
the crowds back, making room for the
funeral cortege to pass and permit not
ables to reach the station when they
arrived.
At 1880 O'Clock General Roberts's
staff and Grenadier guards arrived. A
few minutes later the kings of Portugal
and Greece and notables from Buck
ingham palace arrived and were es-
corted into the station by Lord Rob-
erts.
Promptly at II O'Clock bands started
to playing the dirge announcing the
approach of the funeral train. In

of the persons in the vast assemblage

of the Grenadier guards lifted the cask-

who were on the train. carried 1t slow

representatives of foreign governments
viewed it and laid upon it small floral
offerings, covering it completely. Then
the high civil, military and naval Off
cials followed, leaving their offerings
of exotics on the casket. Meanwhile
the bands continued to play funeral
music and the subjects of the late sor-
rowfully bowed their heads and offered
silent prayers.

Lord Roberts and the little Khaki

ALL STIRRED UP
POLITICAL GOSSIP INCREASES
AND SITUATION GETS WARMEF
1t Comes From Several Seemingly Au-
thentic Sources that Maffoffin Could
Not Be Induced to Accept.

The series of articles explaining the
political situation in Ell Paso published
in The Herald during the past week
has put new life into the old line poll
ticians and put the new members to
thinking
There are those who wanted the cam
paign STAYED off until only a few weeks
before the election, but as a rule these
have been doing the most talking.
They tell what kind of a mayor Ell
Paso needs and when he should an
nounce his candidacy and that they
are opposed to the old ring managing
things any longer. This has opened
the campaign and it is open now to
stay until another set of officers have
been elected to serve the city.
"All this talk interrupts business, -
said a prominent business man this
morning. "and The Herald should not
have begun this matter SO soon" With
this Introductory he went on to say:
Il am opposed to politicians running
the city's affairs. We should have a
business man at the head of affairs
here and neither or
are business men. They cannot handle
their own affairs not to mention those
of the city"
&C. r. Morehead would make a
splendid mayor and if he does not ac-
cept it he will be doing the wrong
Things are waxing warm and while
no candidate may announce for a week
or two yet, cliques and duplex cliques
are already forming.
While it has been announced that
neither Mr.. Morehead nor Mayor Magof
fin will make the race for mayor or
accept it if it is rendered them, it is
believed that both really
want it and either would accept will
ingly if the Office is offered them by
the public.
Magoffin Out of Race.
y semi-official city organ, which is
down on the newspaper directory as
independent democratic" publishes
the following:
Local political gossipers have been
supplied with many surprises during
the week in the way of events and
shadows that cast themselves be-
fore" Some people do not seem to
think that Mayor MagOffin is out OF
the race. hut one of his friends said

The University OF Texas, under the
administration of President Prather,
is connecting itself prominently with
the economic development of the state
To this end DR.. VIM. B. Phillips has
been called to the chair of field and
economic geology in the university.
DR.. Phillips is uncommonly well quail
flied by study and practical experience
to conduct this important work. His
energy and practical knowledge have
already made themselves felt. While
in Austin last week Secretary Russell
of the chamber of commerce and Prof
Carrera had a long conference with
President Prather and DIR. Phillips,
with view to a mutual understanding
and cooperation between the univer-
sity authorities and the people of this
end of the state. Secretary Russell
has received the following letter from
DR.. Phillips:

you for forwarding it.

pamphlet setting forth the mineral
production of Texas since the collec-
tion of the earliest statistics, year by
year, together with a resume covering
the entire business down to the end of
1898. Later statistics are not yet
available. A bill now before the leg
islature and which has received the
unanimous recommendation of the
house committee on mines and mining
and the senate committee on mining
and irrigation, tow hich it was referred
provides for the establishment of a
mineral and geological survey of the
state to be carried on by the university.
1t appropriates $4,000 a year for two
years. In regard to statistics, the
bill carries provision that they shall
be collected and distributed by the
survey. AS matters now stand we
have to wait for twelve and sometimes
fifteen months before we can know
what the business of the proceeding
year was. The statistics are q .hered
by the United States Geological Sur

We hope to see this bill become law

also gather and distribute accurate
statistics and have them distributed
early in each year.

The Chinese Cuisine

Though Chinese cuisine has been
credited with some utterly fabulous
dishes, such as white mice served
alive, which add piquancy by their
squeak as they dive down the gullet,
curiosities in the edible line do form
4 considerable list.
Birds nest soup, for instance; a
clear soup made from the refined
gluten with which certain species
of swallow fasten their nests beneath
the rocks; stewed sea slugs," another
nasty sounding dish, but transcending
in flavor the aldermanic green turtle
fat. There may be, too, on first intro,
ducuon, some prejudice against fried
grasshoppers. But courage in this in.
stance is rewarded by deliciously
crisp, brown mouthful, of delicate
nutty flavor
1t is fallacy to suppose that pork
forms a constant article of diet IN
China. As matter OF fact. 1t is too
expensive and is only eaten on high
days and holidays or at restaurants
Neither do milk, beef or game enter
much into Chinese cookery, the first
two being tabooed on religious grounds
Dog flesh Is eaten in the south but
rarely and only by the poorest OF the
poor.--Blackwood.
