Uoey was appointed collector about
a wear and a half ago. His home is III
Muncie. Ind. Jossey came from the
state of Washington. When Hoey re-
ceived his appointment he came TO
Washington to receive instructions as
to his duties, and at that time Sec

with him on the subject of the duty
of public officials. He was cautioned
TO avoid every temptation to wrong
doing. and that to a certain limited
extent the honor of the government
was placed in his hands. Secretary

at Noeales had been displaced be-
cause of certain alleged violations OF
the vicil-seryice laws and regulations

tiop of the office must be at all times
clean and above suspicion for his own
honor and that of the country.

bought their way into the United
States through the alleged conniv-
ance of the Nogales officials is not

Card From the Governor.

We are glad to note the increased
interst in this State in the matter Of
stocking the streams with game fish.
The government furnishes any amount
of fish for this purpose, on proper ap-
nlication, and all that we have to do
when they are received duplication
must be made for them through our
congressman or through one OF our
senator's, of course), is to put them In
the stream, and then have little pa
t,ence. Few efforts that our people
make bring better results than this
thing of stocking our streams with
game fish.

Long before this issue reaches our
readers the story of the terrible storm
of August 18th that swept over the
Gnlf Coast will be familiar to our read
ers. 1t was the most severe storm
since 1893. so far as destruction to
such beach property as piers, bath
houses, pleasure craft etc, went. For
tunately the loss of life was small, and
as the season is late, the destruction
of property will not entail so heavy a
financial loss as would have been the
case earlier. So bad as it was, we still
have cause for thanksgiving.

The shipment Of horses ana mules
TO South Africa by the British have
just passed the hundred thousand
mark, and rcquisitlon upon the re
mount s'.tion in this country for fifty
thousand more has been received. This
expectation Of these animals is The
largest the world has ever known and
as military purchase by one country
from another it ranks with the greatest
of any kind. Texas has been pracli
cally drained, and Kansas, Missouri,
Wyoming and other stock raising States
Of the South and West have been SO
nearly depleted that the SAC animals
OF 1899 bring $50 to-day.
An English naturalist says that the
speed Of birds Is often exaggerated.
The swift, for example, has been
credited with Il speed Of $50 miles an
hour, and the popular imagination
compares the fight of a sparrow hawk
with that of cannon ball. Without
aid from the wind, he SAYS, the pigeon
will fly about forty miles an hour; but
the homing pigeon may be relied Oh,
vndcr fair conditions, to make sixty
miles an hour. On short course the
