Splitting Texas.

From the ST. Louis Times
In Texas the question again has been
raised as to whether that State shall or
shall not de divided into two or more Com
monwealths. Senator Hudspeth, repre-
senting the extensive El Paso district.
has recently forwarded a number Of ar
guments in favor Of division, from which
the country at large may conclude that
the mere mention of the subject of divi-
sion does not now. as formerly. create
immediate ill-feeling.
Senator Hudspeth's arguments are so
plausible 10 those who do not take the
pride of the. native-born. Texans in the
mere matter of magnitude that il seems
quite probable that the Lone Star State
VIII yet come in for the process of diyi-
sion. as did the original Dakota only n
comparatively short while ago.
But more important still is the fact that
Western Texas bel9lgs to the West in
America. while Southern Texas-at least
Southeastern Texas-belongs to the South
in America.
II remains only with the people Of the
State In question whether the State shall
be divided OF not. as there would be slight
chance of objection from other quarters
And in view of the marked gulf between
sections of the State, the day of division
would seem sooner or later TO be in
eyitable.

Jeweled Anklets.

ion of wearing golden bangles about the
ankles, as do the women of India and
Africa This fashion of the jeweled

journey over to London.
The opportunity for the anklet craze
is furnished by the short skirts for day

net, or chiffon which is set on the edge
OF the skirts of some OF the new evening
gowns, so that the colored stockings and
