Residence Burned.

The four room residence of
Juan Gonzallz near the Santa Fe
round house was destroyed by fire
early Wednesday morning. The
origin of the fire is unknown.
The dwelling was valued at
800, insured for $275; the furni-
ture was valued at 5000, insured
for SIPS. The insurance COM
pany is represented by p. N.
Ions.
The fire department turned out
very quickly but had long run,
and as the alarm was turned in
late, the house was nearly de-
stroyed when the department got
there. Nothing in the house was
saved. Juan Gonzaliz has been
employed at the Santa Fe depot
for several years.

BISHOP J. S. JOHNSTON
Preached at Episcopal Church Sum
day Morning and Night Two
Good Sermons.

Bishop J. S. Johnston of San
Antonio, arrived Friday after
noon on his annual visit to San
Angelo.
He preached at the Episcopal
church Sunday morning at
IL o'clock, choosing for his text
part of the first chrpter of ne
second eplstle of st. Paul to TIM
otny. The bishop SAID, "In this
text is patent right for raising
a good boy and Jesus has
given the benefit of this patent
to all the world" He spoke of
the Importance of mothers rails
ing good boys. How they make
good families and how these
kind of families build up and
make great the state in which
they live.
He spoke long and earnestly
on the marriages of today, slft-
ing the "divorce question" The
woman is sovereign of the home
and "the hand that rocks the
cradle rules the world" So if
mothers raise good christian sons
they are doing big thing to-
ward stopping divorces,
lie said in the United States
alone there are 10000 divorces
| annually; in Japan 40, 1000; and
in Canada there have been only
80 divorces III the last thirty
years. The small number of di-
vorces in Canada is due to the
difficult manner in which divorces
are gotten; a divorce being only
obtainable in the highest courts.
He said that 25% of the cases on
docket in San Antonio last yeaI
J were for the breaking up of fam
lilies. The woman is the one to
: prevent the above calamities
"If we have lost the men we
must look to the new woman to
look to her claims She is bet,
I ter than the old woman who is
passing" The world needs bet,
ter mothers, and the one aim OF
a true mother should be char
acter building i'll her sons and
daughters. Let your child know
that the love Of the mother il
not like the love of n she bear
for its cubs, but teach them tt
associate the love of the mother
with the love of God. He said,
"the christian mother should not
waste her time on expensive

The Elsberg bill contains three distinct propo-
siiions Of equal importance-the construction Of
municipal pipe galleries in future subways the
separation OF contracts for construction and
operation Of new subways and the reduction in
the life Of the leases Of new tubes. This year
the Rapid Transit Commission has accepted the
first of these three propositions and accordingly

VIII Use Heavier Rails.

The management Of the New York
Central lines has decided to relay all
main lines with ~l00-pound steel rails.
With this end in view orders have al
ready been given for IS tons of rails,
and a total tonnage of 10, 900 tons,
costing more than $500, 900. VIII be
required TO complete the work.
1t is the purpose of the company to
equip two tracks between New York
and Chicago over the New York Cen
trail and Lake Shore roads with the
100-pound rails and one and two tracks
on the Michigan Central between Chi.
cago and Buffalo, and at least one
track on the Nickel Plate main line.
Vice President w. C. Browne stated
that the reason for the change
in the weight Of the rails is to
be found in the fact that the light
rail will not stand the shock OF the
pounding of the mammoth locomotives
and of the heavy equipment.
The company is paying s32.50 per
ton for $4,000 tons Of rails ordered
in Canada. The Canadian makers ad :
to the price of their rails the tariff,
which is now $7.S5 per ton. According
", while the management Is paying
SIS a ton for rails laid in the United
States on the Michigan Central. il IS
paying $1,000 for rails laid on the
same road in Canada.
