proper to say that the people of Tex
as owe DR.. George R. Tabor, State
health officer debt of gratitude for
the efficient manner in which he
guarded the State against the plague.
For long months, the State was
threatened, but with never tagging
zeal and vigilance the borders were
watched and not even a sporadic case
of fever occurred.
When it is considered that DR..
Tabor had hundreds of miles of
boundary line to guard and the re-
sources at his command were limited,
it is marvellous that he was so sue
cessful. He has demonstrated that
an efficient quarantine firmly main
tanned still affords the surest pro-
lection against yellow fever, and
he has further demonstrated that
Texas can not afford under any cir
cumstances to surrender her control
of the States quarantine power to
the Federal government.
Texas was the only Gulf State that
succeeded in completely barring the
fever out. That proves that with
due diligence we can in the future
limits, and that we cannot afford to
run any risk by siiTrendeTiiis our con-
troll of the quarantine With the
experience that has been gained dur
ing the present year, We may feel
assured of our ability to protect the
people and our commerce in the fu-
ture.
No doubt the quarantine imposed
hardships at times and proved a
great annoyance and inconvenience
to business and to travel, but what
was suffered in this way was of lit
tie consequence compared with the
stagnation and commercial paralysis
which would have followed an out
break of fever.
So we have all the reason in the
world TO be gratified at the results
and to appreciate the very efficient
service rendered by Dr. Tabor.

POSITION OF COUSINS,

State Superintendent r. B. Cous-
ms, who spoke to large audience in
Waxahachie last Friday night, out
lined his plans for benefitting and
making more efficient the country
schools of the state long before he
ever dreamed of presenting himself
for the important office he now
holds. This all important matter of
shaping country school districts and
securing better teachers so that citi-
gems would not have to move TO town
benefit of a good English education
has been his theme for many years.
Now that he is in a position to do
more effective work in this direction
he is exerting every effort possible
for it's accomplishment. In his
speech last Friday night he said the
strong city schools were able to
take care of themselves and that it
@ould be just As easy for a country
school district to build its own
bridges as to establish and maintain
its own schools. He further said
that if, during his administration,
he could succeed in putting on foot
some practical plan that would attain
this end he would be proud Of his
record and consider that his admin
istration was not altogether a fail
ure Mr. Cousins. in so far as he is
permitted TO leave his office, is Wis
iting the teachers Institutes over the
state in advocacy of his views on this
matter With his practical common
sense and his great energy there is
No reason why he should not be sue
cessful in bringing the country
schools up to a higher standard of
excellence Already during his adj
ministration the attendance at the
teachers institutes has almost
doubled No teacher can succeed
without having his heart and soul ia
the work. and the institute affords
him splendid opportunity for bet
ter equippiug himself for his duty as
a teacher The public school fund of

Under the Texas law SANDER is
confined to any remarks made with
regard to a female which impute a
want of chastity to her A few days
ago in the city of Decatur four white
men were arraigned upon this
charge and the jury in each case
fined the offender 800. The costs
and penalties amounted to $3.50.
From a purely money point of view
the fine is all right but it is no ade-
quate punishment for the offense. to
take a few paltry dollars from the
pockets of an offender of this class.
SANDER, wife-beating and child tor
turing can only be properly punished
by the public application of the cat
ne-tails.--Bellville Times.

GuInrse O1lumpus.

The belief in Chinese Columbus was
first allowed by scholars only In the
first half Of the last century. The
claim is that Buddhist priest in the
fifth century crossed the Pacific to this
continent and returned, making writ
ten report of his discovery. The report
still exists. 1t was translated into
French in 1901 by M. de Guignes. 1t
gave narrative of voyage eastward
by priest for 10000 H. where he found
a country which he named Fusang.
People similar to the Indians were de-
scribed, as well as American plants.
The only doubt about the matter is as
to the distance meant by 10000 II. The
priest may have reached only some is
land In the Pacific ocean.

CHRISTMAS GAMES.
How to Amuse the Children During
the Holidays,

the Holidays.
Christmas day games for the chill
dren are as necessary as plum pud-
ding and the following will please
them and are welcome to many grown
ups, says the Chicago Tribune:
Santa Claus Pack.-All form in line
and march to lively strain on the
piano to the next room, where a table
holds the contents Of Santa Claus
pack. They look at every object on
the table and then march back. The
leaving the room, the table and its
contents having been covered. Those
remaining choose some object which
they remember seeing; the piano begins
to play again and the others return.
The leader gives to the returning party
a word which rhymes with the object
chosen. Thus, If it was ball, he
might mention the word hall" The
returning party now proceed to guess
what object has been chosen, and they
express their guess by acting in panto-
mime. They do not all suggest the
object in the same way, but each ac-
cording to his individual fancy, but
they must all agree upon the object
they will guess. If wrong they go
out for another trial and so on until
guessed, when the other half of the
company goes out, and they remain
and select the object for the others to
guess.
Hiding the Mistletoe.-All form In
line, single file, and march about the
room or several rooms until the music
stops. They then proceed to hunt the
mistletoe, which the leader carried in
his hand and concealed somewhere
during the march. The finder must
effect return to the starting point with
out being touched by the leader.
Santa Claus Sleigh.-Six girls arc
harnessed to little sleigh or sled,
and the white ribbon reins are held
by q seventh. The sled is filed with
small parcels in colored papers con-
taiuing Christmas crackers or any
trifies as favors. The party goes round
the room several times, dispensing the
favors to the young men, who proceed
to select partners and dance until a
signal from the leader calls all to
march around the room and back to
their places.
Snowball.-A large white ball Of It's
sue paper is suspended well out Of the
way Of bric-a-brac. The young girls
teke turns at shooting at this ball with
a small rubber ball. When hit with
sufficient force It breaks and out falls
shower Of smaller white balls, per-
haps popcorn balls, which are gathered
and presented as favors for the next
march or dance. AS there should be
only about half as many balls as there
are couples dancing, this will cause
scramble among the small boys who
gather them up and who, for fair deal
ing, should be kept behind certain
line until the ball receives the shot
