TEXAS LOSES PRESTIGE.

p0OR OLD TEXAS. The prestige Of
the Lone Star empire is growing
dim Perchance this generation will
see it fade forever from the sight Of
men, Time was when it was as safe
Tor spectator there to stand and look
at hastily improvised duel as TO gaze
upon a game of lawn tennis. Alas,
times have changed, and men with
them The young idea isn't being
taught how to shoot in Texas any
more.
Look at the account of the duel in
Belleyille, published in yesterdays Her
aid. Most readers started to peruse it
with the expectation of being treated
10 an ornate account Of some highly
polished craftsmanship. 1t was not TO
be. We find in the list of slain one
gentleman who was engaged merely in
'rubbering. Two others who were in
dulging in the same fascinating occu-
patton were wounded.
1t is true that three of the principals
were killed, but that doesn't remove
the stain altogether When the names
OF three bystanders appear in the list
OF casualties it seems as unsafe to lin
ger in the vicinity Of a Texas battle
as to watch policeman try to kill
dog. We don't like to be harsh with
well meaning people, but the facts
justify At. Perhaps the BelIeville fight
VIII impress upon the Texans the ne
cessity for reviving courses of fnstruc-
ions IN the gentle art of trigger-pulI-
ing. The Herald hopes so, else it can
never again point with pride to the
Lone Star state
Good. active legs when frearm fes-
tivai is in progress are at present bad
ly needed in Texas by those who don't
like to take desperate chances with

SALT LAKE SUFFERS.

= ALT LAKERS who have observed
y the changes made by the Rio
Grande management since the consoh-
dalton of the Denver & Rio Grande
and the Rio Grande Western are not
inclined to take much stock in Presi-
dent James J. Hills theory that one
road is better than two. This city has
suffered to a considerable extent by
the coalition and it is likely to suffer
still more. The removal of DR.. Pinker-
ton and Dr. FoWIer's departure from
the service are the latest instances.
When George ]. Gould visited Salt
Lake some months ago he expressed
great interest in the city and state,
promising to build both up in every
possible way. Mr.. Gould's methods of
upbuilding viii strike most of us as
decidedly peculiar. Every salaried Of
fetal who could POSSIBLY be dispensed
with here has been relieved. Others
have been moved to Denver, and it is
beginning to look as if salt Lake would
soon be nothing more than way sta
ton
This is hardly fair to a city that has
aided most Loyalty in giving the Rio
Grande Western a balance on the right
side Of the ledger. Salt Lakes bust
ness entities it to more consideration
at the hands OF the combined manage
ment. OF course nobody expects anv
railroad company to expend money use
iessiy, but it does seem that it should
be possible t. show less partiality as
between Denver and Salt Lake. II
surely isn't necessary to give the Colo
RADIO metropolis all the cream and to
make Utah and Salt Lake do the
skimming.

THE AFTER-DINNER NAP.

| pOSTPRANDIAL SLEEPERS are be-
ing Jared into wakefulness by DR..
Schulz, a German scientist, who says
the practice is harmful. The doctor
makes the awful charge that sleep
after meals has the effect of decreasing
the mobility OF the stomach and Undue
ing a condition of hyperacidity.p This
should he borne in mind by all who are
in the habit of lying down at the close
of a hearty dinner and drifting away
into the unfathomable confines of the
land of Nod
Believers in the practice have long
argued that it is healthful. In sup
port of their theory they point to the
animal world. 1t is fact well known
that animals invariably sleep after eat
ing until their stomachs are filled. Ba-
HES do the same thing. If they didh't
there wouldn't be much rest in this
world for their mothers. The practice,
therefore. seems to be an invention of
nature for the relief of human beings
as well as animals.
Dr. Schulz. curiously enough. admits
that the recumbent position after meals
is favorable to digestion, but he de-
clares that the tendency to slumber
should be resisted. 1t is hard for the
iayman to understand such a hair-split-
ting distinction, especially as the doc
tor doesn't make his reasons clear. His
theory is based merely on the examina-
ton of the contents of sundry stomachs
a few hours after their owners partook
of refreshments. Some of the people
had slept and some had not. 1t was
found that the wakeful ones were di-
costing their dinners more rapidly.
The test seems hardly a fair one. 1t
is probable that varying conditions
p.evailed in the test cases. Bowers of
dig .stion are almost as varied as indi-
viuuals What one man can eat with
impunity might put another in bed for
a week. 1t is doubtful if sleep has any
effect at all on digestion, and it is much
more doubtful if it has a harmful eff
feet If DR.. Schulz is right in his con-
tention one of the most obvious of ma
lures laws is at fault.
