THE HIGHEST POINT IN TEXAS.

Popular impression places the
great commonwealth or Texas in the
tlist Of plains states probably because
Iot the well-known extensive prairies
along the Gulf coast from Beaumont
to Brownsville and the equally we'll
known Llano Estacado OF the so
called Panhandle. II is not so gen.
orally realized that another section
Of the state is so high and rugged
that the old Lone Star republic may
we'll boast of being almost a part of
the backbone OF the continent. This
section IS the sparsely settled and
semi-arid trans-Pecos region. Here
are the Davis Mountains, Livermore
Peak, the Chanati, the Chisos. and
the glistening white peaks OF Sierra
Blanca. For all OF them many ele-
vations have been published, but the
figures were determined either by
guess or by a slightly more refined
means-the aneroid barometer-and
the question as TO which Is the high
est of the towering peaks OF West
Texas has until lately remained un-
answered. That the honor would
rest with the Guadalupe Mountains,
a timber-capped range In the north
ern part OF FL Paso county, not far
from the New Mexican boundary line,
has long seemed probable. In de-
scribing these mountains Prof. Rob-
ert T. Hill, in his monumental trea-
tise on the Texas region, pronounced
them the highest in the state. Not.
withstanding an error OF nearly a
thousand feet in his published ele-
yation--an error resulting from the
uncertain aneroid--his statement
was correct.
During the summer Of 1904, while
Van Horn county was being mapped
by the topographers OF the URited
states geological survey, careful OBJ
servations were made to determine
the elevation OF the Guadalupe range.
The work was conducted by Mr., Ar
thur stiles, who has recently worked
out his field notes and has Conclu-
sively determined the highest point
in his native state. The elevation
is $500 feet above the sea, and the
peak--the highest in the Guadalupe
range-ls significantly called BY the
Mexicans Ell Captain.

through what that gentleman did to
get into a position. Anyway tho sys-
tenn for the placing OF high grade
men was not perfected in the time
OF Charles Dickens. and ! dare say
that the putting of man Of Ma
cawber talents In the right place
would be done today In much shorter
order u was not that he did not
make his wants known; for every
body who came in contact with him
was apprised Of his difficulty. Nor
was II that there was not the right
kind OF a job open for him. The
whole trouble lay in the impossibility
Of bringing the job and the man who
wanted the job together at the same
time. or course at the end OF the
book this Is finally brought about.
These problems have long since
been disposed Of, and the man who
has brains to sell Is most expedi-
tiously shown where to sell them.
And then the success or failure Of an
applicant may be directly traced to
the way in which he applies for work.

THE MAN AND HIS JOB.

Those immortal words OF wilkins
Macawber, that something might
turn up, may have been good phil
osophy in'the days Of that celebrated
parsonage, but the one who follows
those precepts these days is, to ex-
press 1t in the vernacular, taking
chances. Whatever Is got must be
gore after; and the percentage of
men who are sent for is so small
that it would not be considered play
ing a safe game to include yourself
among them. The keenly COMPETE
tive commercial market can do with
out anybody. 1t was Mr.. aeawber's
wont to let the job come to the man.

More than 5000 doctors OF Hol-
land have carried on for a long time
series of observations bearing on
the laws OF heredity and the results
are now published by two Of their
number. They find that the ability
to coordinate thought and give ex-
preston to it rapidly in most cases
comes from the father. Forty-four
per cent OF the sons OF mathematic-
ally minded men inherited the love
of scientific pursuits, while only
fourteen per cent of the daughters
OF such did likewise. The gift OF
clever talk and self-criticism came
from the father. So did the traits
OF good nature and sensitiveness.
Tendencies to crime were referred to
the father, also dementia and mel
ancholia. Interest in all kinds Of
sports we're traceable to the mother
usually.
