the shams and hypocrisies of modern
life, and is behind some pointed queries
But 1t doesn't follow that the jerome
stripe of reformers are always right
because they happen to be fearless.
Man and the devil may possess no ter
rors for them, but they may draw false
conclusions, just as the timid draw false
conclusions. Jerome wants to know
what Americans have done for the
humble foreigner. Americans have done
a good deal for the humber foreigner
They have prepared place for him,
where he can enjoy religious and civil
liberty; that is doing much for him, If
we go no further. They have furnished
him with employment and have open
ed UP opportunities which have made
it possible for him to rise in the world
and take first rank Study the names
of the captains of industry-the Car
negies and the Schwabs and the Ham
mersloughs and the LoenSteins-per-
haps they are good, old American
names, and perhaps they are not. Turn
the thing around and put 1t in another
way: What has the humble foreigner,
living in the tenements, ever done for
the American citizen ?" He has done
less than the American citizen has
done for him, and, as rule he mas
done nothing until he was sure of his
ground and had piled up capital
through the fundamentally of the
American citizen.
The foreigners trust in the institu-
lions of this land is no more pathetic
than that of the early settlers and
passing glance, with unmarked graves
within the line of vision, will make that
| fact apparent The question which we
must ask when we are not Disgusting
! our thoughts in this world is a ques
| ton which we must answer for our
i selves, and it relates to the truth of
what we are saying.
Jerome criticised fairly when he
scored those who were in his class for
twiring their thumbs in cafes and
restaurants and clubs, ana doing moth
ing to help out. These people imagine
that they are cit" and they yawn, I'M
consciously. every time that they
think of themselves but ne did not go
far enough in his criticism. What does
the poor. humble foreigner do? He
helps himself, and he doesn't help 9TH
ers until he is assured that he can
dodge the wolf at the door. Then he
takes hold The latter is as selfish and
sun-dried as his American brother ev-
er dared to be. and when Justice Jer-
ONE endeavors to persuade people that
the virtue is confined to one side of the
house, ne has a big job on his hands.
There is an interesting story from
Cumberland Mill to the effect that the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad presented
500 in gold to Harry Baker, a loco
motive fireman, for breaking into a
burning car and removing 20 cans Of
powder The cars were so hot that
they burned his hands. The story
does not tell where there was any real
necessity for this act of supreme 4cour-
age, but the railroad company has done
wisely in commencing courage as an
abstract virtue among its employees. 1t
is not the value of the purse, but the
recognition that will count.

A man who once knew Gillett at
Kansas City is now at the Sheldon.
"Gillett can go back to Kansas City
when he wants to- said he. 1.-The
only case they have against him is a
chattel mortgage case which he can
easily beat. He will not even have to
go to Jail for there are plenty of peo-
pie in Kansas City who are ready to
sign his bond. He can beat every case
they have against him there and l be-
lieve he would go back now but for
the embarrassment of the trial.
1t is generally believed in Chihua-
hua that Mr.. Gillett will return to his
former home soon and regain his po-
sition in business there. Mrs Gillett
was accompanied by her little boy last
night.

SEES THROUGH Ell PASO.
She is on Her Way Back to Her Home
on a Visit, and it is Not Known Pos
itively Whether She and Her Hus-
band Will Resume Residence in Chi
huahua OF Not.

Mrs. Grant Gillett. wife of the for
mer cattle king of Kansas, spent two
hours in Ell Paso last night enroute
from chihuahua to her old home in
Kansas.
She could not be seen until the
train was ready to leave but explained
that she was going home on a visit
and would probably return to Mexico
soon. She did not make this state
ment clear and left the impression that
she might not go back but be Joined
in Kansas by her husband, who is yet
in Chihuahua.
She explained how the story that she
had already gone to Kansas got out at
Chihuahua. A week ago she left Chi
huahua for the Interior to buy some
drawn work and other things to take
north with her and did not explain
where she was going. Mr.. Gillett went
with her and the story got out that
she had returned and that Mr.. Gillett
had gone to Vera Cruz to sail for New
York. She would say nothing last
night about Mr.. Gillett's return to Kan
sas City, but it is understood that he
will go soon.

An Instance of the Influence of Here
dity at Picture Gallery.

| Doctors disagree as to the influence
of heredity. Some hold that a great
deal hinges upon it; others believe the
contrary. Some of the authentic stor-
les told to exemplify this mysterious
, bond between ancestors and descend
ants are very curious.
There was a loan collection of old
portraits exhibited in London lately
and a young girl was among the WISH
tors. She was an orphan and wealthy.
but without near relatives and was Of
ten heard to complain of the loneliness
of her position.
AS she passed through the gallery
one particular portrait attracted her
attention and she went back to it
more than once. Her companion saw
in it nothing but the commonplace
painting of a middle-aged man in the
costume of the latter part of the last
century.
1T is such a nice kind face said
the girl, rather wistfully Il imagine
my father might have looked like that
had he lived
AS most of the pictures were ticket
ed the visitors had purchased no cata-
logue but. before going away. Miss B.
bought one at the entrance and made
last visit to the portrait for which
she had felt so strong an attraction.
To her establishment she found her
own name opposite to it's number and
learned on inquiry that the original
was one of her direct ancestors.
Another occult coincidence or psy-
Geological phenomenon happened a
few years ago to a southern states
man and financier whose family has
always been of rank in his native
state. This gentleman was overhaul
ing old documents and letters which
had been stored in a musty chest for
years and intended to publish what
ever might be of historic value and
interest.
TO his surprise he unfolded a letter
yellow and time-stained which was
written in his own peculiar hand
or seemed to have been writ
ten by him. although the date was two
generations before his birth. The sig
nature of the surname, which was the
same as his own was so markedly char
acteristic that he could scarcely be-
lieve his own hand aid not pen the let

as well as features and
character is handed down in families.

Provided further, That no fran
chise shall be granted which is not
approved by the president of the
United States and not in his Judg-
ment, clearly necessary for immedi-

indispensable, for the interests of the
people thereof, and which can not
without great public mischief be post

All such franchises shall terminate

The president has used the rights he
had in the best possible way, and has
done great good with the limited facili-
ties at his disposal. 1t is certain that
he will not in any way abuse the au-
thority granted in this new law, but
will do what is best for the islands
themselves, and just to this country.
The resolutions may seem to be a little
bottom-heavy, devot.ng so much space
to tying the hands of the administra-
ton with regard to franchises. The
provisions of the resolution will en-
courage the more reckless kinds of spec
ulative ventures, while it is somewhat
doubtful if it will materially assist
those who desire 10 invest permanently
in legitimate enterprises. However, it
IS better to let the thing go through
in this way, rather than to have a sus-
picion of wrong doing on the part of
any of the appOinteeS of the govern
ment.

Every day adds to the list of deaths
attributed to heart failure. If the
truth were. told the bulk of these
deaths might be written down as due
to stomach failure. For it is in the
failure of the stomach and other organs
Of digestion and nutrition, that weak "
heart, rweak lungs. weak nerves and
other forms of physical deterioration
having their beginning. The man whose
stomach is sound, who can digest and
assimilate the food he eats. and so keep
each organ of the body well nourished,
is the man who is least liable to collapse
under the sudden weakness of some
vital organ.
The preservation of health which fol-
lows the use of DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, is chiefly due to the
fact that it perfectly and permanently
cures diseases of the stomach and organs
of digestion and nutrition, purifes the
blood and increases the blood supply of
the body. Weak people will find in this
medicine sure means of strength.

SULPHUR DEPOSITS OF
THE STATE OF TEXAS.
Are Among the Greatest Undeveloped
Treasures. Says Professor Carrera in
a Recent Letter.

In response to a letter from President
VIM. L. Prather of the State univer-
sity at Austin, Prof. Carrera prepared
and mailed to President Prather a
statement for use in support of the bill
for an appropriation of $4,000 per
year for two years to carry on a min
eral and geological survey of the state.
under the supervision of the State uni
versity. Prof. CarreIa says in part:
Western Texas holds deposits of
copper, silver, coal, petroleum., quick
silver, and in my estimation a great
deal of sulphur. How much 1 wish
that competent men be put in the field
and study the enccnomical merit of
these various deposits! A sulphur de-
post is Of the greatest Importance to
the country at large now, since the
English trusts have taken hold of the
Sicilian mines and doubled the price of
this indispensable article of commerce
during the last few years. OF this me-
terial the United States produces less
than $50, 900 per year, and it consumes
nearly $4,000, 900 worth. which is i'm
ported from Sicily principally. The dis
covery of the right kind of sulphur de-
posts would Therefore be a very great
blessing to the country.
Last year l had occasion to visit
the great sulphataras of Sicily and

phur deposit which, starting from the
southeast center of New Mexico's vol

island of Sicily Itself. 1 would deem

ST. Louis hopes to get one or more

many monuments, arches, bridges. pill
lars. and parks beautifying the vistas
of the streets. American cities have
very few and these not always high

MARK TWAIN AS A
COMMON SCOLD.

| Mark Twain is not a success as
scold-his newest role. AS a funn,
man he has earned world wide love
land honor. but ever since his return
Ito his own country he has been fling
ling caustic criticismc at the govern
Iment, at reforms. and lastly at the
American missionaries in China.
When he jumped on the Philippine
policy and said Uncle Sam was going
to the dogs, it did not make so much
difference That is political question
and though one would like Twain to
be on the republican side. yet if he
chooses the Bryan variety there's no
quarrel with him, even when he quits
being funny and puts up a ridicu-
lousy good imitation of our much de-
feated presidential candidate.
But when Twain said that every re-
the bounds OF discussion and enthus-
iasm and insulted all of every politi-
cal faith and religious creed, who are
earnestly trying to make the world
better. Mistaken reformers there are.
and dishonest ones. but the most of
them have some right grounds for
their work and are honest in it.
Twain's latest assault was upon Doc
tor Ament. in charge of some of the
Christian missionary work in Pekin.
Twain accused Ament of dishonor. and
now it has been proved that the charge
Twain brought up against the mission
airy was a mistake of the cable.
The cable read that Rev. Mr.. Ament
of the American Board of Foreign |
Missions had collected fines from the
Chinese in various places to the |
amount of thirteen times the damages |
collected by him for the murder OF
and the destruction of their |
property. The dispatch should have
rsad that the fines were one-third in
excess of the indemnities, making
difference of something over a million
dollars in the amount said to have
been collected. The money was used
or the benefit of Chinese victims of the
,utrages. Twain's charges were I'M
July violent, and easily disproved.
