being somewhat skeptical as to the Ito
scheme for emigration via Galveston. has
started a correspondence entitled Shall
the Wandering Jew Drag His Pack to
Texas" under which head it is conducting
an inquiry among it's readers in Texas as
to the value of this state for Jewish settle

the first fruits of this investigation In the
shape of three letters from correspondents
in various towns of Texas.

Mr.. W. T. Chastain has a drainage we'll
on his place at Senner which Is quite
curiosity for Florida. At intervals 1t
throws streams Of water ten to twenty
feet in the air; subsiding. spouts again.
. The natives say that the we'll happens
to be directly over the DEVILS furnace.
and whenever the devil builds his fires
to do his cooking the water in the well
begins to boil and spout. This theory is
exploded by the fact that the water is
not hot, but cold; but the natives explain
this by saying that the distance Is SO
great that the water has ample time to
cool before reaching tho surface Of the
earth.

a CLERGYMAN from the eastern shore OF
MARYLAND who was in town recently on an
excursion from that section. and passed an
afternoon In the capital city He gave an
Interesting resume OF his visit, explaining
why and how he was moved to such COM
parison.
while our party had only a short time
to spend In Washington. in view OF the con-
tract with the excursion management,

old and valued friend who now makes ms

apparent on every hand. The rooms are
all large. light and airy-indeed. in this re-
spect. nothing further could be asked.
Though the day was warm the atmosphere
throughout the entire building was clean
and cooling. The sleeping apartments were
especially well equipped in the matter of
in the apartment house.
'Dsposing themselves about the building
were the three hundred odd inmates of the
institution In much the same fashion as a
large household would conduct Itself. There
were old ladies busy with their sewing.
others in animated conversation with their
intmates. and the cd gentlemen dispos!ng
Of their time as their inclinations or duties
directed.
ITO the credit of the female sex 1t may
be said that even in old age the ladies
seemed to be more useful about the house
than the men. Practically all Of the old
ladies' were busy with something or other.
But of peace AID contentment there seemed
a great unanimity of sentiment.
ever since the time Of Mother Eve there
has been disposition on the part OF the
female sex to hide their age. Ask nine out
of ten ladies. and they will invariably reply
that they have forgotten, or words to that
effect. This never surprised me in young
woman of a manageable age who has not
been spoken for but was vastly amused
at the Home for the Aged to find that same
disposition of forgetfulness in these old
ladies that one naturally looks for in a
young woman. Guess it's in the blood.
Time and again 1 asked this question. and
the only one to volunteer a reply was a
good soul Of a colored woman-who. by the
way. was both blind and unable to use
her limbs. After guessing once or twice
