The Teachers Institute.

Having been one of the attend
ants at the county institute, which
has lust closed in this city, can
not refrain from saying few words
in behalf of it, feeling satisfied that
everyone of our county school
teachers who had the opportunity
of availing themselves of it, will
heartily join me in saying that the
institute was an entire success,
from beginning to end.
But, in this instance, 1 think we
owe it all to our capable and eff
cient County Superintendent of
Schools, Mr.. +. H. Goodrich. for
he has unquestionably left nothing
undone that has not been a step
taken III the right direction, and
that, too, to his neverfailing quail
tiles of conducting and keeping up
with up-to-date school methods
In behalf of the institute. l most
heartily thank Mr. Goodrich for
his many kindnesses and courtesies
shown us, and sincerely hoping
that we will again have another
successful Institute i'll the near flu
ture, remain,

Mexico Adopts American ideas.

The study of English is COM
pulsory in the Mexican public
schools. Every year Mexico sends
to the United States a number of
school teachers to study American
pedagogic methods. A great many
Mexican children are being edu-
Gated in the schools and colleges
of this country, where formerly
they were sent to Europe. The
number of Mexican visitors to the
United States and the number of
American visitors to Mexico is in
creasing every year. 1t IS said
that Yucatecans know New York
better than the City of Mexico,
and that west coast Mexicans are
more at home in San Francisco
than in their own capital city.
Thus, each year the American
way of living is taking deeper
hold on the Mexican people.
The vice-president of Mexico
and announced successor of Presi-
dent Diaz is very much American
lied in his ideas. In fact, he might
easily be mistaken for a plain,
shrewd American business man
from his appearance, manner and
methods. He has always been
exceedingly friendly toward Amer
leans. As governor of the state
oil Sonora he encouraged them 10

THOSE who are best informe /
are of the opinion that the bridge
to be built across the Rio Grande
by the St. Louis, Brownsville &
Mexico railroad will undoubtedly
span the stream at this point. One
fact favoring this view is that the
engineers who have been sounding
the river and examining the banks,
for the purpose of ascertaining
whether it is feasible to construct
a bridge here, have given assurance
that it is entirely so. Early de-
velopments in the bridge matter
are confidently expected and the
Twin Cities of the Border" may
look forward to the construction of
this link of steel which is to unite
their destinies more closely than
ever and to assure their common
prosperity.

ivory From Various Animals.

Ivory comes from other sources
than from the elephant, and is
just as good. Ivory dealers and
workers in ivorv have long known
this. Tusks from the hippopot-
anus furnish just as good ivory as
comes from any one of the twenty
FIVE varieties of elephants. It is
also proved that the boar, narwhal.
right whale and alligator furnish
excellent ivory. Even the Western
hog gives many an ivory tusk to
the Chicago packing houses.
Suppose Texas had cotton mills
to manufacture all of the cotton
Texas produces. The people of
Texas would save the cost of trans
porting cotton from State to New
England or Liverpool mills, and
that could be added to the price
the farmer now receives for it,
which would mean something like
S. bale at the lowest estimate.
Then. if the cotton grower were
interested in the manufacture of
cotton, he would reap the profit of
manufacturing, which is much
larger than the profit of producing,
and, too, he would save the middle
mans profit on cotton cloth, and
the freight charges for transporting
the cloth to Texas. The cotton
grower is more interested in cotton
mills than anyone else. More
cotton mills mean more money in
the pockets of the cotton growers.

called upon to perform the trying and
almost impossible task Of killing an old

that If ever the family to whose care
she intrusted him should deem 1t neces

with chloroform, SO that he might be
assured a painless death. Then the
horse became blind and otherwise dis
abled, and the family decided thai
death would be a mercy.

had to be carried out, but no greater

been possible. 1t is impossible to ad.
