Times While riding on a train last sum-

of training Jacks for racing purposes first

has been developing much of his time to
training them.

for transporting and storing them at
distributing points were much less eff
ficient, perhaps thirty years ago, there
were several so-called successful mi
nor corners in wheat and corn, but the
only successful corner in wheat within
twenty years was that engineered by
Hutchinson at Chicago In 1888. when
he put the price up to So bushel, and
made the shorts settle at that. Rec
ords of similar attempts include
Keenes loss of $2000,000 in wheat in
1879. Handy's similar loss of $1,500,000
in 1881, Harper's dropping $4000,000
ON the cereal in 1887. and young Lei
ter's parting from 100000 in his at
tempted wheat corner of 1898 In
addition to these. there were failures
to corner lard by MeGoech in 1883 and
Cudahy in 1898, in which each lost, it
is said, about 100000; and Deacon
Whites memorable corner In corn in
1892. In which he lost a million, which
he subsequently paid with interest.

WILL MAKE MOLE MEN.
Result of Travel on Subway in New
York.

From the New York Times
II see that one of the big stores has an
entrance connected with the Subway"
said Cadwallader. Great scheme, eh?"
VERY great" replied Throop lin the
direction of making New Workers a race
of moles. If this thing ..eeps on we shall
lose all use for our eyes in the normal
way of employing them, and in a few
years become as much afraid of the real
daylight as owls. Why, If these subway
qualifications continue to increase-and
they will, l suppose-do you know what
1t will mean?
I'm a dozen years or so the woman
from New Jersey-say, out Newark way
will hop on a train to come to New
York on a shopping tour The train will
travel in the sunlight only a little way,
and then dive for a tunnel, In which 1t
will continue across the North river and
under the city of New York till it ar
rives at the basement door of one of the
big stores An elevator will take the
shopper upstairs into the brilliantly and
artifcially lighted emporium, where she
will buy her spool of thread and a bolt
of Calico When lunch time comes she
can eat in the store restaurant, or, if
she does not want to, can go down stairs
and take the subway to some hotel or
dining shop in another part of the city.
This, too, will be lighted by electricity,
and none of the sunlight of day will be
allowed to penetrate.
IF it's a matinee day, she will go from
the restaurant to the theatre, all by sub
way, and after that a subway will take
her home. She will not have seen one
bit of New York city in her whole trip
and for all that she has learned of the
big town might just as well have been
in Chicago or Boston all the time.
Even to the New Yorker, born and
bred, who uses the subway now, the
streets are beginning to be nothing but
memories. The other day I had occa-
sion to go uptown to Forty-second street
and Broadway, on the surface. 1t looked
like new land to me. as M business
had not brought me ABOVE ground in that

Austin. April 27.-(Special )-"Native
Albanian" is a title that guarantees one
high place in the citizenship of Texas,
the largest and most democratic state in
all the Union. From the moment the
Lone State" state was admitted into the
Union Alabama has furnished men who
have stood first in the church, state and,
indeed, every vocation of life. 1t is true
that Alabama has contributed men whom
she could i'll afford to lose, but her loss
has been Texas gain, and after all the
development of our country is far more
important than the advancement of any
one state.
Should citizen of Alabama walk into
the capitol of Texas at Austin, wearing
a badge announcing the state of his birth,
he would receive a welcome that would
cause him to be profoundly thankful that
he was born in the state that has given

staunchest pillars of its government. The

One United States senator three COVER
nors and four chief justices of the SUI
preme court are some of the Officers which
have been native-born Alabamans. AT
present Senator Culberson, the senior sem
ator from Texas, who was born in ITALIA
poosa county, Alabama, is one of the
recognized leaders of the federal Senate.
Senate Culberson was for two terms gov
ernor of the Lone Star state. Chief Justice
Gaines of the Texas supreme court was
born in the great county of Choctaw, Ala
bama, and later was practicing attorney
at Selma. Judge Gaines still cherishes
loyal feeling towards his native state The
decisions of the Alabama supreme court,
which have always been recognized by the
judiciary of the country. are according to
the attorneys who plead cases before the
supreme court, thoroughly familiar to
Judge Gaines. The young attorneys of
Texas are quick to learn that no cita-
lions are more seriously considered by
Judge Gaines than the Alabama decisions.
