A friend saw Spratt get the bill of the floor Spratt contended that he knew noth- ing of the money and declined to pay over the ten dollars to Rush. There upon a warrant was sworn out and Spratt is now at police headquarters awaiting a hearing this afternoon.

Traffic at the Union Station was something enormous yesterday and last night, and extra trains wero the rule.
 Yesterday morning train No. 2 due at 6:30 a. m. from New Orleans came up in two sections, both crowded. Two sections of train No. from New Or leans due at 6:20 p. m. came up last night. the tide of Texas travel flow ing east causing the overflow on the two trains mentioned. The travel on the suburban trains in the afternoon was unprecedented, every train going out with several extra coaches.
 Last night there was a jostling. pushing mob around the ticket win dows, and the throng in the waiting room resembled a street fair or mardi gras. There were two sections of the Western train No. S7 due a+ 9:20 D. m. and two sections of the Louisville and Nashville No. 3 for New Orleans. There will be two sections of train No. from New Orleans this morning and possibly two sections Of No. 4 tonight.

Goth Century Empire Building.

Great as is the power of war in the
building of an empire-and the jap
anese- Russian war will probably make
great nation of Japan-there is an
even greater force at work in the
world that will in the end decide the
fates of peoples. This is the power of
one nation to absorb the individuals
rather than to wipe out or swallow
another government The Twentieth
Century will probably witness the
greatest Capitalization of peoples
under vast empires, that the world
has seen since the days OF
Roman greatness. When the CEN
tury ends, the outlook is that there
will be a half dozen first nations,
created by assimilation instead of war.
Japan will be one. with its influence
felt throughout Eastern Asia. Russia
will, of course, advance, Germany will
probably have absorbed Austria. The
Latin races of Southern Europe may
have combined for self-protection
England will go on empire building
and the United States will have
spread over the continent, and maybe
two continents, besides having abb
sorbed vast numbers of peoples from
all countries Of the earth.

- THE RIGHTS OF MAN.
They Should Include an Opportunity
to Make Home on a Piece of Land.

The right to work, to employ ones
self, comes from Nature, and not from
legislative action. If that is true.
says the Detroit News Tribune, 1t fol-
lows that legislatures have no right
to make regulations which will permit
the cornering of opportunities for self
employment. The United States laws
governing our national domain of land
were originally designed to conform to
the rights of man.. Our homestead
acts were designed to place the land in
the hands of those who would actually
use it productivity, and much of the
land was so parcelled out to the
great advantage of society. But cum
ming lawyers and unscrupulous men
who want to reap where they have not
sown, who seek to avoid productive Ia
bor themselves by controlling the op-
portunities of self-employment, have
succeeded in cornering large Sec
tions of the United States. The
revelations of the land frauds in
the West are worthy of great at
tention, but they excite less inter-
est than do our troubles with
President Castro of Venezuela. The
astonishing fact is learned that one
man has acquired nearly $1,000 square
miles of public land. He does not want
to use it himself, and his only object is
to make others pay him for the privi-
lege of using it. He therefore makes
it more difficult for men to employ
themselves, and the rights Of man are
to that extent denied.
The La Jara chronicle., 1905-10-13

ganization was never so strong and
carefully nurtured as at present; party
discipline was never SO rigid; party
leadership was never so placidly recog-
nized and implicitly obeyed by party
workers. The change has come about
in comparatively recent years. In
fact, the present generation of voters
have witnessed its coming. Samuel j.
Tilden showed the way. AS result of
his teaching, not party principle, but
party organization, won for the Demo-
cratic party sweeping victories in Re
publican strongholds and was started
fairly on the road to a long lease of
national control. Then appeared the
late Marcus A. Hanna from his business
cloister and gave impulse within his
party to movement similar to that
which, under the tutelage Of Tilden,
had brought surprising victories to the
Democrats.
The spirit Of organization which now
animates both of the great parties is
not indolent or lukewarm between
campaigns. In an important sense. it
is as active now as it was when the
lines of battle were drawn after the
national conventions of last summer
had done their work. The difference
between them is made conspicuous by
reason of the fact that the Republican
party is in power and its central or
ganization-the National Committee
is necessarily more in evidence than its
counterpart in the opposition organiza-

and seemingly never giving n thought

yourself:
"Can this really be Senator William

has been down on his uppers; again he
has been engaged in n big dairying pro-
ject in Virginia; at other times he has
dabbled again in Western mines and
has run an Eastern mule farm.
Retiring from the Senate last spring,
he was again once more a poor man,
and with his advanced years it was
presumed by the unknOwning ones he
would sink into obscurity but like
some others, "Bill Stewart has never

The chances are more than even that
he will although he is nearly four

The Senator expects to reap a pro
fitable harvest from the various legal
matters arising out of the vast new
gold fields which have been discovered
in Nevada. He is an expert on min
ming law and has at least the preced-
ent established of having received in
former years a fortune as single fee.
Not Crushed by Failure.
Whatever may be said about the

enemies will not deny that the physi-
cal makeup of the man is marvellous

is splendid. He is Of the type that

CLIMATE IN MANCHURA.
1t Plays a Prominent Part In the
Fortunes of War.

The climate of Manchuria plays an
important role in the war between
Russia and Japan. Up to the present
we have had but little precise fnforma-
ton upon this point. NJ. j. Ross mas
lately given the Scientific American IN
dications as to the climate of that re
gion and the character of the dinerent
seasons. He states that in the months
of March and April there are strong
southwest winds which bring with
them heat and moisture. At the END
of March the winter season ends. The
undersoil is still frozen at this time,
but the ground can be worked for agrl-
culture. April appears to be the only
month of spring. At the end of this
month the sowing of wheat commences:
Summer begins in May, and at the end
of June or the beginning of July tine
wheat is cut. Up to the end OF June
rain is rare and the sky is generally
clear, while cloudy weather is an ex-
ception. The heat reaches a maximum
at the end of July and first part OF
August. Afterward come heavy rains
or storms. 1t often rains for several
days and nights without stopping. The
soil is completely saturated and 1nun-
dations are frequent.
September is the harvest month,
w
weather of the year. At this time the
climate is agreeable during the day and
the sky is clear. with bracing air, while
vegetation is at its height. At the end
of the month the first night frosts be-
gin to appear, and in November the
cold weather commences and keeps up
until March. At Mukden the temper
ature sometimes reaches a very low de-
gree. During the day, however, the
cold is not excessive, and sometimes in
the middle of the winter the suns rays
become very warm, on account OF the
southerly position of that locality. The
maximum temperature of summer is
100. 4 deg F. About ten months of the
year are dry for the most part, and the
excessive wet season only occurs dur
ing a month or so. At Niuchwang, on
the north shore of the gulf of Lao
tung, the mean winter temperature is
16 deg. F., and the mean 70. the sum-
mer. "A. 8 deg. The mean annual tenn
perature is Al. 1 deg. f. The Russian
maritime provinces have a very low
mean annual temperature. At Vladiv-
ostock the average for the winter is
1912 deg. f., and for the summer it is
only 1919 deg. h.

TO BUILD A new FORTUNE.
NEARLY EIGHTY YEARS OLD,
FORMER SENATOR STEWART
BEGINS LIFE ANEY,
axes his Young Bride to Gold Camps
OF Nevada and Rears Comfortable
Home-StiIl feels the Wine of Youth

At the age of seventy-eight, after
having seen two generations rise and
pass away; former Governor of Ne
vada, mine owner of great wealth,
United States Senator for eighteen
years, William NJ. Stewart for long
known as the Santa Claus" of the
Senate, is starting life anew amid the
gold fields of Nevada.
With the virility OF youth this robust
and hearty old-timer, says a dispatch
from Rhyolite, New, has, with his
young bride started in to make another
million.
Fortune has played prankes with
Senator Stewart; at one time he had
been one of the rich men of that mil

in Washington. In the earlier days he

they may enjoy religious liberty.
On September 80 is the Jewish New
Year, this year Number 5666. one Of
the most sacred holidays to the Jew,
when all petty quarrels are forgotten,
and every man is at peace with his
neighbor.
The Jewish New Year Is observed
in accordance with the injunction:
''And in the seventh month on the
first day of the month shall We have
n holy convocation; no servile work
shall we do; day of blowing the cor
net shall it be unto you."-NumbcrS
XXI.
But it is observed quite differently
by the orthodox and the reform Jews.
The cOrnet mentioned in the bible
is made from a rams horn, and is
known rs the "shofar," and is used in
all Jewish synagogues on this New
Years day.
