TEXAS pRAIRIES


Mr.. E. l.. Givens, editor OF the
Guard, a weekly paper printed at
Batesville, Ark, recently visited
his father, Rev. n. Givens, IN this
city. After returning home Mr..
Givens wrote the following for his
paper:
| There is not q more pleasant time,
perhaps, for q trip into Texas, the
great empire state of the Southwest,
than the month of June, albeit the
weather is little warm with the
fullness of summer; and surely
| there is not more delightful place
anywhere to visit than Waxahachie,
the home of my boyhood, whittier /
recently went to spend few days
with an aged father, on the occasion
of his Slst birthday.
Waxahachie, the county seat of
Ellis comfy, is a magnificent town
OF solid proportions and with pop
the world. An enormous businesses
is done there, and there is much
wealth and culture among its citl-
zens. In the commercial world,
Waxahachie enjoys the distinction
| of buying more cotton direct from
| the farmers wagons than any other
town in the South. The amount
thus purchased each season is little
n ore or less than 60,O00 bales. There
| Is IA large cotton mill in the town,
two oil mills and two compresses.
While cotton is the principal pro-
, duet of that section, corn, wheat
and oats are also profitable crops.
The soil is black and deep and as
fertile as the valley of the Nile.
The dreaded boil weevil has found
/ its way into the southern and east
eru borders Of the county, and the
people are frightened, though not
yet hurt by it. If it spreads over
the county, the price of land, it is
| thought, might drop from $50 to so
an acre, and business generally
would he seriously affected.
Trinity University, the property
of the Cumberland Presbyterian
church of Texas, is located at Wax
ahachie, and is domiciled in truly
magnificent college building, cost
ing nearly $50 ,0C0 and the pride of
| the town. That denomination is
also building q very handsome new
church there, ana il was my pleas
| ure to attend the first service held
ia 1t, which was also an odd Eel
lows memorial service. Other de-
nominations have beautiful
churches there, and the public
school system is credit to the
town. Nearly all She population of
that part of Texas is Southern born
The largest camp Of Confederate
Veterans in the world is at Dallas,
numbering more than 1900 members;
and a large camp also exists at
Wax ahachie.
There Is mnch there TO awaken
the memories of my boyh0od and
things that do get very close 10 a
man. My schoolmates are among

How Cooper Kills BaciIIi.

[From Gilbert II. Grosvenor's ''Ihe
New Method Of Purifying Water" in
the December Century.1
Man would seem to have at last dis
covered an effective weapon against
typhoid fever, Asiatic cholera and sim
liar merciless scourges which invade
our Intestinal and digestive organs
thru polluted water. 1t is yet too soon
TO declare positively that we shall ex-
terminate these dread diseases, but we
have good reason to believe that we
shall be able to drive them out OF cit
les and towns, and camps ana prisons,
and wherever men are living herded
close together. The weapon is not or
steel or iron, but coppre, the most con-
yenient form being the common COM
mound of copper and sulphur known
as blue vitriol, copper sulphate. Every
school laboratory contains some beau
tiful blue crystal Of copper sulphate.
Every schoolboy for generations mas
dabbled with these blue crystals, or
has watched his teacher use them lot
ordinary class room experiments. Ana
vet who would have imagined that
pinch Of these crystals dissolved IN
the water tank in the attic, or in the
cistern or well, would kill any tphoid
that it's use would insure healthfui
germs that might be lurking there;
drinking water in a crowded military
camp: that it would exterminate NAL
aria -any-yellcw cw-fever-carrying mos
ouitos in stagnant pools ana sWamps
hv destroying the vegetable organisms
on which the mosquito larvae feed'
that it would, in few hours, make
the water of an evil-smelling and foul-
looking city reservoir. containing Dill
lions Of gallons of water, clear and
sweet. and that the amounr of cop
ner that accomplishes all this is SO
small that while it kills the bacteria
in the water it does nos make the
drinking water poisonous or injurious
to the human system?
1t has been known for song tlme
that copper destroys bacteria. but the
metal has not been :rucn used mere
tofore for the purpose, because sc1en-
fists have generally believed that the
dose required to kill the bacteria must
ha very concentrated-So concentrated,
In fact. that it would poison the water
or substance containing the bacteria
and make the cure worse t;lan the evil.
A snecialist of the United States gov
ernment, Dr. George T. Moore. has
now come forward and announced
with the authority of the government
behind him, that he has discovered how
to get the good effect of copper with
ont any dangerous result; that he has
q way of using copper so Gnuied tnat
It cannot hurt baby, and yet so ac-
tive that it will destroy viru;ent chol-
ara and .vnhoid bacilli In four or five
hours.

Statement to Congress.

washington, Dec. 5.-Attorney Cen
eral Moody In his annual report to
congress recommends the enactment OF
a law which will provide In substance
that where an indictment Is duly re-
turned to a court, the United States
Judge of that court may, in his discre-
ton. issue q bench warrant for the ar
rest OF the defendants, wherever they
may be found within the territorial
limits Of the United States, and that 1t
shall be the duty of all prisoners au-
thorized to serve such courts, to ar
rest any person or persons indicted, and
IL they fall after reasonable oppor-
tunity to furnish bail for their ap-
pearance, to bring them to the court In
which the Indictment has been found.
The attorney general explains that
much embarrassment In the adminis-
tration Of the law has arisen from the
inability Of the United States to bring
offenders to the place and court where
by the constitution and laws, the ac-
cusntion against him must be tried. In
support OF his views Moody cites a
number of cases under the present law,
in which justice has been defeated or
greatly delayed, and large expense un-
necessarily incurred by the government.
