cHANGES ~ THE BRIDGE.

The alterations which have recently been in
progress at the Manhattan end Of the Brooklyn
Bridge and which are now nearly completed,
have been designed to facilitate the loading and
unloading of trains. The new method Of conduct
ing the latter operation went into service yes
terday, and already promises great relief,
Hitherto the incoming bridge trains have dis
charged passengers on two sides Of single plat
form, and the stairways from the latter to the
rnezzanine floor Of the station were badly choked
during the busiest hours of the morning. Here
after only half OF the trains will unload at that
point and hence only half the demand will be
made on those stairs. The other trains will run
further into the station TO an entirely different
platform. from which it is possible TO descend by
any one Of three entirely new staircases, which
are much wider than any formerly available.
Moreover the trains which come in nearly to
..rk Row can discharge passengers on both
lies. because Ncbe new platform at which they
stop is opposite the old island platform. Dis
persion ana division Of the crowds on their way
10 the street are thus assured.
The greatest gain resulting from the improve
nents viii be obtained when those on the other
side of the station are put at public disposal.
More people need to be accommodated at night
than in the morning Within the last few months
there is said to have been slight diversion OF
traffic TO other routes, but this is undoubtedly
only temporary. 4 year or two ago 1t was true
Ii Ii is not now-that the number OF persons
who want, 70 depart during short period was
greater than the number that arrived in CORE
sponding interval Of time Without doubt that
will be the case again IN the near future. Ac-
cess 70 trains has almost invariably been more
difficult than egress from them Hence the ne"
facilities for outgoing traffic, which viii go into

TEA AND SILK CULTURE IN TEXAS.

Texas is a state of magnificent distances and
possibilities 1t could be divided Into a dozen
or more good sized states OF the earlier pattern
and still have enough left to make fair
showing as a Lone Star member OF Uncle
Sans family. Its soil and climate, also have
potentiaIities that yet only limited at
Although little is generally heard, for instance,
of Texas rice fields, while much is heard about
those Of Louisiana, as g matter Of fact the rice
fields of Texas could spare the area devoted TO
rice in Louisiana and scarcely miss it. Few peo-
Die know the size Of Texas's peach orchards
though all have heard much Of Delaware and
Georgia peaches. Yet the whole state of Della
ware might be dropped down in the peach
orchards of Texas and almost be lost in them
And now the big state Of the Southwest Is
preparing another illustration OF its siZe anu
its agricultural possibilities. a Japanese synd1-
cate has purchased a tract of 10000 acres in
Bee County in the San Antonio region, ana
three hundred Japanese families are to be set
fled upon 1t to engage in the cultivation OF tea
and silk The tea plant, 1t has been demon
strated, flourishes we'll In Texas, and mulberry
trees grow even better than in Japan. There
is reason therefore, to hope that before many
wears the Japanese colonists in Texas Will be
able largely to increase the wealth OF this
country and to diversity It's products by ADDING
tea and silk to our exports or at least dlm1n-
iSh the amount when the Ohiteu 0taCeS ouJS
of the Orient The japanese who are going
n Texas do not expect to form a settlement
exclusively by themselves after the Chinese
fashion. but will adopt American ways and
customs and become good American citizens
Should the experiment succeed, the syndicate,
having an option on 100000 acres of land in the
Southern states suitable for the tea and silk IN
dustries. will next purchase that large tract.
| There will be no wholesale immigration or Jap
! anese to the Southern states, but every move
ment will be carefully planned Only those will

come Texas alone can support population
greater than that over which the Mikado how

while the addition to the wealth and resources

WORTH TRYING.

Not long ago an incident occurred in the local
postal service which, perhaps. ought to be sug-
gestive to Christmas shoppers, though the ap-
pIication is rather indirect Postmaster Wilcox
courteously asked merchants and others who
send out large quantities of mail matter to re-
feet that If they would post their letters at in
tervals during the day, instead Of sending them
all over to the Office late in the afternoon, the
facilities at his disposal would be more nearly
adequate to the requirements Of the service,
and their own advantage would be promoted.
The suggestion was favorably received by many
parsons, and in consequence the congestion OF
mail matter in the Postofice has been to some
extent diminished.
At this season Of the year, especially, shop
pers often complain that the crowds in the
stores are so great that they can hardly get
waited on that their time and patience are over
taxed and they go home after arduous srug-
gle utterly exhausted. This state Of things Is
not at all pleasing to merchants, but 1t IS not
in their power to put an end TO it. If. however,
shoppers would, so far as possible, make their
purchases earlier in the day, instead of wait
Ing until the latter part Of the afternoon, thus
distributing the transaction Of business more
evenly over a larger number of hours, they
would certainly serve their own convenience
confer s. favor on the merchants and relieve
the really distressing burden which the clerks
have to carry at this season. They would also
escape the misery Of being caught In the roar
ing tide Of traffic during the rush hours Of the
afternoon and would get home in condition Of
comparative comfort instead Of In a state Dor
dering on Iunacy.

will be a witness against Johnson,
who is accused of the actual murder.
Butchard was later found with his
throat cut lying on the sidewalk in
