Mr.. Bryaa'e latest attack on
Grover Cleveland is having effect
but possibly not of the kind that
Mr.. Bryan anticipated. Eugene
V. Brewster of New York was
one of Mr.. Bryan's staunchest
friends and supporters in both
of his campaigns. A day or two
ago Mr., Brewster said: Bry'
ans attack On Cleveland convln-
ces me that he lackes poise and
balance. l did not think he
would step SO far below profes-
sionai dignity as to call an ex'
President and competitor for
the presidential nomination. 4

The Atlanta Constitution is at
last disguised with Bryan and it
calls on him to talk sense or

that our contempory should have

We have 3ust received tthro'
the mail a marked copy of the
Newton, Kansas, Republican,
containing an account Of the re-
election of regimenta1 officers
of the Second Infantry Kansas
National Guard. In speech by
the newly elected colonel Of the
regiment he used the following
language, that should be read by
very business m5aa iln this COM
w. ~~Nciaiiy those who
- - i'S' eef- --'N1e fof

military duty. Colonel Hoising-
ton said in part:
Much depends on the regi-
mental and company officers, eS-
pec1GIly tie captains. The
business men Of the CON-
n11t7oity can exert a great inhu-
ence for or against the Guard.
Governor Durbin was right when
he said that "a man who would
discharge Guardsman from his
employ because he did his duty
to his nation is traitor" The
employer who discourages the
enlistment of his men in the
Guard because he does not wish
his business to be disturbed
when a call for military duty
comes, is nourishing the same
T01tOrO1US spirit. He who will
not make the least sacrifice for
the nations defense does not de-
serve the protection of the flag"

The Yellow Fever Situation.
Strict Quarantine In Mexican Cities
Insures Entire Safety TO Texas.

While there has never been any
real cause for uneasiness at Browns
vile on account of the existence of
yellow fever 200 miles off in a por-
ton of Mexico, which could he
reached from this vicinity only by
very circuitous route requiring
several days to make, still the
necessity OF quarantine regulations
has been deemed advisable, and so
the matter was presented to the
State health officer, DR.. George
Tabor. That official acted with his
customary promptness and firmness,
as the following telegram will show:
Austin. Texas, Aug. Il.
Dr. \. S. Wolff, Quarantine Officer,
Br0wnsville.-Are any restrictions APP
Piled at Matamoros against places in
Mexico infected with yellow fever
Inform Mexican authorities there that
unless strict quarantine is applied by
them, Texas viii quarantine against
entire State Of Tamaulipas. Action by
them must be immediate You are
directed to apply rigid quarantine
against Victoria, Mex, account yellow
Fever. Signed TABoR, S. H O.
DR.. Wolff communicated this
message to the mayor OF Matamoros,
who gave him the assurance, both
verbal and written, that every
precaution will be taken to prevent
anyone from Tampico, Victoria, or
any other infected points, from
entering Mataneores. Guards are
stationed en- all roads leading into
Matamoros, having strict orders to
prevent anyone from entering that
city from any infected places. A
copy Of DE-. Tabor's telegram to DR..
Wolff has been forwarded by the
mayor of Matamoros tothe Govern
or ofTamaalipas.
All trains on the Mexican Gulf
railroad FROM Monterey via Victoria
TO Tampieo have been stepped, so
that if any enc leaves Tampico or
Victoria he will have to 80 so by
an overland route.
The precautions taken by the
Texas and Mexican authorities
practically Insure complete protec-
ton from yellow feTer.

 The next day Brandon was installed as one of the captains of the kings guard, under his uncle, but with no particular duties except such as should be assigned him from time to time. He was offered good room on one of the lower floors, but asked instead to be lodged in the attic next to me. So we arranged that each had a room opening into a third that served us alike for drawing room and armory.
 Here we sat and talked, and now and then one would read aloud some favor ite passage while the other kept his own place with finger between the leaves Here we discussed everything from court scandal to religion, and set tied, to our own satisfaction at least, many great problem with which the foolish world is still wrestling.

 @ N March p, 1863, Admiral Por- G k ter's fleet of Federal ironclads stood in vital peril of capture
 by the Confederates under cir cumstances which all but stagger be- lief. To speak of cavalry charging upon a fleet of warships smacks of Munchausenism until it is explained that the vessels were blockaded in ice on hard frozen bay. This occurred in the waters of Holland before the age of steam power.
 Now, Porter's ironclads were not caught in the ice or this story of their escape would not be written. They were hemmed in by trees felled by the enemy in front and rear across chan nel so narrow in places that the ships sides were only foot from the bank. The ships were greased from stem to stern to prevent the nimble Confed- crates who were after them from clambering aboard, and sailors armed with pistols and cutlasses lined the up- per decks to guard against assailants leaping down from overhanging trees. All this took place in the sluggish wa ters of tributaries of the Yazoo river, an incident of Grants Vicksburg cam- paign. Porter ventured into the Yazoe trap to suceors the army. In the end the army rescued Porter
 Porter's unique experience was the result of Grants desire to get In the rear of Vicksburg on the north. The Yazoo empties into the Mississippi
