TO THE PUBLIC.

The weekly issue of the FREIE
PREssE FUER TExAs' has po-
sitively the largest circulation
of all German papers published
In the State Of Texas.
It has over 400 established
agencies in the State, is mailed
to fully 700 post-ofices, and has
an extended circulation in Mexi-
co, in the Indian Territory, and
in Oklahoma.
It circulates from Galveston
to Denison, from Marshall to Ell
Paso and of course mainly in
the thickly populated central
and southwestern parts of the
state.
Two travelling men and ou1
very active local agents are con-
tinuously adding new sub

In consideration of these facts
the ''FREIE PREssE FUER TEXAS

tising medium in the State OF
Texas, where it is the object to
reach the German reading po-
pulation.

GERMAN STEAMER PRIMUS CUT
IN TWO eY A TU0.
FIFTY LIVES THOUGHT LOST.
NEARLY TWO HUNDRED ABOARD AT
TIME OF ACCIDENT.
1855 PASSENGERS ON BOARD
Disaster Due to Too Precipitous n Move

Causes Loss OF Life

Hamburg, July 23.-The steamsh Up
Primus OF Hampburg, with 1856 pas
sengers on board was cut in two
and sunk by the tug Hansa on the
river Elbe at 1890 Monday.
So far as is ascertained about fifty
persons were drowned. Thirteen
bodies already have been recovered.
Primus was ar excursion steamer
from Buytehude, province OF Han
ever, Prussia
The disaster occurred between
Blankenez and Nienstdeten. Among
the passengers we're the members OF
the Eilbeck male choral society.
At the time Of the accident Primus
was crossing the river channel near
Blankenez, from the southern into
the northern fairway.
According to witnesses aboard
Hansa, the movement was made too
precipitately. Primus struck the
tugs engine rooms and Hansa en-
deavored to push it ashore, but tho
tug grounded and the ships parted.
Primus then sank.
In the interval, however, about
fifty Of the passengers were able to
reach Hanas by means Of ropes and
ladders. Seventy more were picked
up by the tugs boats, while Others

And Queen Helera is MS sensible as
woman as she is as n mother. 1t was
entirely with her concurrence and ad-
vice that King Victor Emmanuel some
time ago made known through his
ministers that. with the object of re-
lievng the burdens upon the national
treasury and upon tie taxpayers, he
was about to order a further reduction
in the amount of the civil list due to
him as sovereign.
When he succeeded to the throne,
says the London NJ. A. r.. he made
surrenders of this char
acter. Then he gave up another mil
lion lire of his official income to his
mother, so as to relieve the treasury of
its obligation of paying her the annuity
due to her as the widow of the late
King Humbert. With all this reduc-
ton the splendor of his court has not
been in any way impaired. 1t has
merely been reformed on business
basis, like that of King Edward.

Farmer Takes His Life,

: Grand Island, Nebr., July 90
Monday morning. when the two old
er sons Of Hans Voss, a prominent
German farmer residing a mile and
a half east Of the city, went out to
the barn to feed their horses, they
found their father lying dead on a
pile Of straw in the horse barn
They took him to the house and
promptly notified their relatives In
the city, and the coroner. 1t was
found that he had risen during the
night, gone to the stable and taken
strychnine. Coroner Roedera at
once went out to the place and upon
investigation found an inquest I'M
necessary. The bottle from which
he had taken the fatal draught lay
near where the boys had found tho
body on the straw pile.
Hans Voss reSsded In the vicini-
ty many years being counted with
his father, among the old settlers.
He was married nearly twenty years
ago to Miss Senbeil, whose parents
and family still reside in this vicini-
ty, and the first years Of their mar
ried life appear to have been happy.
The union was blessed with four
children, trhee sons and daughter.
In recent years the family appears
to have had some domestic unpleas-
antness, and last week Mrs. Voss
appliad for a divorce, the hearing
having been SET for today. She al
leges great and repeated acts Of
cruelty, among them that Of incit-
ing the children to be impudent to
her, etc. After having filed the pc
tition for the divorce she was afraid
to go to the house and did so, to get
her clothing, only In the company
of the sheriff. There is no doubt
but that the man took his life as re-
suit Of this domestic trouble. He
was well to do and in good health.
Uopn retiring last night he had
spoken tn his sous about harvesting
the oats today and gave no indica-
tion OF respondent mood. He was
prominently and well known in his
township, having several years ago
been a candidate for supervisor.
Mrs. Voss, his widow is quite dis
| tracted. She had been for the past
week staying with her sister, Mrs.
Emil Barth, Of this city.

OLO-TIME SCOTCH SERMONS.
Those of the Eighteenth Century Were
Nothing if Not Exhaustive.

The length, breadth. depth and thor.
OughneSS of the Scottish sermon OF
the eighteenth century were wildly
known as Ian Maclaren," at the Roy,
al Institution recently. A subject, rs
he remarked, was thoroughly thrashed
out in those days. One text furnished
minister with eight sermons; IN.
other spread his comments and eXpla
nations upon passage of eight verses
over n period If nine months. while a
third began a course of addresses to
his congregation on the Epistle of st,
James in 1766, and n whole generation
had passed away before it was com
pleted in 1892.
Even the endurance OF Scottish con,
gregatlOns seems sometimes to have
been unequal to these great trials, and
an order had to be issued that the PEG
pie should not entertain their neigh,
bors with discourses while the minis
ter was holding forth.
1t must have been easy to slip into
heresy in those days, says the London
Chronicle. The declaration of stern

HAS A UNIQUE PIPE.
One Made from Root of Historic Tree
Is Wonderfully Carved.

is NOuuertully NarNeus
NJ. n. Silver. of Philadelphia Is the
proud possessor of what is considered
the most unique pipe in existence. OBJ
viously 1t is the most remarkable for
the workmanship and skill which were
displayed in carving 1t.
In 1861. about fifty years ago, j.
Stone of Trappe, Chester County,
which is near Washington's headquar-
tiers at Valley Forge, came across a
wonderfully shaped piece of wood. 1t
was about six feet long and was a
root from one of the historic trees Of
Valley Forge. The root took his fancy
and an idea entered his mind that
it would make a valuable historical
relic If placed in a carver's hands and
carved as he directed. But he never
carried out his intentions and even
tually the historic root came into the
hands of Mr.. Silver, who had his own
ideas regarding carving. AS result 1t
was made into a bunch OF pipes and
cigar holders, many In one, although
he calls it pipe.
The work on this pipe took 1924
hours and. If reckoned at 20 cents per
hour, the pipe cost him about $500, not
considering what was paid for 1t in
the original transaction.
Mr.. Silver has had many offers for
the pipe. but has declined them all, the
largest amount offered being $500. He
expects to place it in the Carnegie Mu-
scum at Pittsburg If the negotiations
which are going on turn out right.
The exterior of the pipe Is carved out
In many faces of grotesque expression,
which give it very odd appearance.
1t has quite number of large trap
doors, from which when opened, figures
made of wood spring out. 1t has many
receptacles for holding tobacco and
quite a number of men can smoke at
the same time, for the interior Is com
posed Of a labyrinth of small pipes and
tubes. The smoke Is pleasant by the
time it reaches the mouth, says the
Philadelphia Inquirer, losing the hot
burning sensation, and at the same
time depositing the nicotine inside the
pipe

The little Princess Yolanda of Italy
IS such II healthy and bOnny child that
she more than compensates Queen
Helena for all the unpleasant criticism
brought upon her by her resolution to
bring her little one up according to the
strictest rules of modern science. From
the very beginning she astonished So
ciety by abolishing all sorts of foolish
old customs, some of which are com
mon to royal and wealthy families gen
orally and others peculiar to Italy.
One of her most radical innovations
was to do away with the swaddling
clothes in which every Italian baby Of
good family is bound up. The princess
was dressed in loose clothes, lightly
sewn up. Customarily an Italian baby

placed dress of the most gayly-col-
Ored silks. The wet nurse wears a
dress of the same colors.
When some ladies of the court pro-
tested against the queens departure
from ancient custom, she said Babies
legs were meant to kick with. and my
baby's shall be free to kick"
The queen also abolished the custom
of assigning ladies of the court, ac-
cording to their rank, to various du-
ties IN connection with the baby. Only
professional nurses of the highest abil-
ity are employed to look after her little
girl. In addition to all these innova-
tons she has put an end to the old
custom of leaving the infants tender
neck and arms exposed.

They Display Great Ferocity and

For ordinary occasions the Moro will
carry a dagger or two in his belt,
while, If he be OF sufficient rank, espe-
cially when visiting an American oth-
Ger, his armsbearer, usually some "a
vorite youth, will carry his larger
weapon, a modern umbrella for the
sun, and an extra supply OF lime and
betel nut. The racial compleXity Of
Moro origin discovers itself in the pat
terms from his looms. the fashion of
his garments. and, to a certain ex-
tent, in the carved ivory and silver
work of his weapons handles. The
race characteristics are perhaps mainly
Malay, but In some cases there is an
undoubted infusion of Hindoo blood,
while often there are traces of Arab,
and sometimes. though less often, of
Chinese. The patterns on Moro tapes.
