GALVESTON'S FUTURE.
Expectations Following Building
of Sea Wall.

Ex-Representative Gresham Of Tex
as, in a recent interview in the Wash
ington Post, says:
I'm about four months from now
say, by the end Of June-the great sea
wall which is to prevent the devasta-
ton of Galveston from future storm
will be completed. The project is c.
of the greatest Of the kind ever at
tempted and is perhaps without par
allel in the world In length IT, wall
will be between three and three and
one-haIf miles and seventeen feet in
height. 1t is built of crushed granite,
sand and cement, resting on founda-
ton Of piles that were driven to a
depth of forty feet The money to pay
for it came from a bond issue of ST.
100000, which was taken by home peo-
pie entirely.
ITO complete the work Of protection
it was necessary to raise the grade of
the city, and a contract has been let
with a Holland firm to perform this
task, for which 100000 Of bonds
have been issued. The time allowed
for this filling in is three years, but the
contractors think they can finish it in
two 1t involves the cutting Of a canal
through the city 100 feet wide and 20
feet deep.
"The only assistance Galveston gets
in this labor Of rehabilitation is through
a remission of taxes levied by the
state for a period of fifteen years.
Long before that time our island city
will be a far Weather and more i'm
portant commercial city than it was
prior to the great tidal wave that well
nigh wrecked it."

POWERS FAVOR RUSSIA.
France, Germany and Austria
Sure to Favor Gar.

A London cablegram says it is
ascertained, by the most careful
investigation, that the European pub
lie, as a rule, fayors Russia in the
present conflict ia the Far East.
The Publishers Press correspondent
polled all Europe through correspond
ents and the results show that, far as
sympathy goes, Napoleon's prediction
that Europe would be all republican or
cossack has been fulfilled by it being
nearly all cOssack.
England itself is a loval ally of ia
pan, although the old-fashioned con
servatives, of whom the Spectator is
the moxthpiace, still deprecate the
alliance, as they fear it may release
some Frankenstein IN the shape of the
yellow Peril"

l must hear the lady play many times
and subject her to many tests before
l can be assured that each selection IS
really an improvisation Of the mo-

a long series Of performances, then it
would seem that her gifts are supra
normal. l would next have to obtain
facts as to her ancestry, to learn if her
gifts were atavistic. l think from
