Causes fer Thanksgiving

There have been years when, owing to business depression or national disaster, there was a wide spread feeling that fasting and humiliation would have been more fitting than praise and thankfulnoss. And vel the broader view we are now able to take as the result Of riper ex- perience, c0nvinces us that even in the midst of darhenin@ circum- stances there were abundant reasons for gratitude For the calamities. trials, and seasons of depression from which the nation has occasionally suffered, have proved, a.s nothing else could have proved, the stability, confidence and self-restraint and self-reli- ance of the American people.
 This year, with the exception of the tearible disaster at San Francisco, there has been scarce ly cloud on the national horizon. Splendid harvests, unparalleled business prosperity. and general comfort, combined with peaceful relations with all other countries, afford every reason for gratitude to the Giver of all good. Of course this does not imply an ideal con- dition in the business, moral, and political world. There is yet far too much business dishonesty and grasping; political life is still seriously affected by corruption; and the socalled high society, which so many people seek to initiate, is notOriously low in morals. But the conscience of the nation is awakened and things are moving in the right direction, and for that above everything we are thankful.

The great Duke of Wellington was
noted for his rigid integrity Here is
an instance Which occurred in refer
ence to his large estate. Some farm adj
joining his lands was for sale, and his
agent negotiated for him for the pur-
chase. Having concluded the business,
he went TO the duke and told him he
had made a capital bargain. "What do
you mean" asked the duke. "Why,
your grace, have got the farm for so
much, and l know it to be worth at
least so much more" ''Are you quite
sure of that?" "Quite sure, your grace,
for have carefully surveyed it."

OUT TEXAS CITY
Fourteen Killed in Bellevue
Fire Follows
Wind.

neIlevue, Tex, April "a tornado
here has caused the loss of fourteen
lives, the injury of large number and
practically wiped out the entire town.
The tornado was followed by fire,
which consumed the wreckage.
/, The town of Bellevue consisted Of
over 200 houses. The whole business
section and all stocks of merchandise
were destroyed. Six hundred people
are homeless and practically destitute
The tornado path was mile wide
and eight miles long. The storm lev
eled everything in it's path, running
crops and barns on the way.
T.. Conservative estimates place the
loss between $15O,OO0 and $175,0OO.
The Inhabitants of the town are
not only homeless but without food
or raiment and utterly destitute, all
their possessions having been swept
away. Relief IS being fastened to
them from neighboring towns.
Dispatches from Hico, 130 miles
south of Bellevue, are to the effect
that Hamilton, the county seat, was
also devastated by the tornado and
several lives lost. Two relief trains
have gone from Henrietta, carrying
doctors and nurses.

FIRST ARREST

Firearms.

San Francisco, April 2S.-The first
arrest for alleged reckless shooting by
members of the state militia, which, it

rine corps, who turned him over to the
police.
Captain Rittenhouse charged Wilder
with leaving his post and shooting
up the district commanded by Rit-
tenhouse. The marines patrol the best

cross river, which it is impossible

stone ORA pounds), but the father
weighs sixteen stone, and each of
the sons weighs eight stone. Yet in.
less thamsfalf an hour they are ali
across the river. How do they man
age it
The riddle is an old one, but a
new answer, offered by an English
paper, is more ingenious than the
trick solutions that the reader prob-s
ably remembers. Here it is:
The two sons cross in the boat.
One goes back to the father. The
father then crosses. The other son
goes back again with the boat, and
then the two sons cross together.

IN HOMES OF RoYALlsT
sYMPATHIzERs.

Paris, April 2S--The police adopted
decisive measures during the morning
to apprehend the element which is
fomenting. disorder and capture the
sources OF its supplies. Early in the
day search was made of the head
quarters of the Confederation of Labor
and also of its fifty branches through
out the city. simultaneously the po-
lice searched the homes OF a number
of royalist sympathiZers, who we're
suspected Of encouraging disorder in
the hope OF effecting a coup d'etat."' :"
The offices of La CroiX, a reactionary
paper, were also searched
Important papers, it is understood,
were found at the homes Of some of
the royalists.
The search Of the headquarters OF
the Confederation Of Labor yielded
negative results.
The frmness OF the government in
making searches and gathering large
military forces has led the executive
committee of The Confederation OF La
Dor to consider the ddvisability of post
poning the demonstration from May L
to June rs. The committee is holding
secret sessions. = 49,. :
The police and military precautions
are not being abated. Six thousand
police, 800 cavalry and 5000 infantry
have been detailed to guard the banks,
railroad stations and the plants OF the
electric. gas and water companies.
Parades Vigorously Prohibited.
The formation of professions in col
umns Is vigorously prohibited and all
groups will Immediately be dispersed,
The prefect OF police, NJ. Lepine, will
take absolute control Of the city, in
cluding authority over the troops,
which will act as reserves subject to
his call
The prefecture of police specifically
denies having knowledge Of any an-
archistic plot. II declares that public
uneasiness is not warranted, as the
police and military safeguards are
merely precautionary, F..
A considerable element OF the pop.
ulation, however, continues to be nerv.
GUS and apprehensive. People are lay
ing in stocks OF provisions and the
large provision stores are doing a
thriving business in canned goods, oil
and mineral waters.
- Among the houses searched were
those of Count de Largle, Count Du-
rand de Beauregard, the imperialist
leader; Xavier Feullant, former Off
Ger of the imperial guard, and jacques
Piou, president of the Liberal league.
Besides the residences of the per
