CINCINNATI, Feb. s.-The safety ap-
pliance law for railroads was uphell
in it's broadest sense by the Unite l
States Circuit Court of Appeals In a
decision yesterday, in sustaining a 500
fine against the Louisville and Mash
VILE railroad by the United States Court
in Tennessee for failure to have a car
properly equipped. The railroad claimed
that the law was unconstitutional, be-
cause 1t was alleged to be too compre-
hensive in scope, as the fine was for
a car which the railroad claimed was
not used outside of Tennessee. and
therefore. not ia Interstate commerce.

are led up to them gradually, disarm-
ingly, presumably so that they may
not shy when confronted by them.
But even slight changes Of fashion In
line and trimming may make an old
gown look very old indeed, II those
changes are of kind to which the
gown can not subscribe, and sensible
advice to women Is to go warily this
fall until the modes and the feminine
views regarding them really crystal
lie. AS the yelling fad has proved
boon to women who have to practice
economics, so will the lace vogue prob
ably prove. Already she can see in
the imagination wonderful makeovers
made possible by the clever arrange
ment of flounces, frills or appliques.
And the advantages of folds in myriad
arrangements has long since been
recognized.
The waistline Is still trifie high,
but only trifle, and 1t seems likely
that many of the autumn models will

THE TRUTH ABOUT THE WEST.

To the Editor of Th5 Bryan Eagle:
/ am writing to say some things
about this western country and the
people in general, that ought to be
said. A little controversy through the
papers of this country and paper
further east prompts me to write. |
am sure that have nothing but good
will and best wishes for anyone. We
all know that one writing descrip-
ton or account Of anything or of any
occurrence can tell the truth in way
that may be misleading-theyd do not
tell the whole truth. This country
consider rich in most soils and 1t lies
in large, level bodies, which is all good
for farming, but there IS generally
lack of sufficient rain. / see from the
government report that the average
rainfall for the last seventeen years
was % inches. This is sufficient to
produce good crops, coming at the
proper time. One seeing this country
in a seasonable time Is misled in favor
of the country; while one seeing II in
a dry time is mislead against It, Now,
my advice to everyone who may have
a home in a tried farming country is
to stay with your home, with possibly
a few exceptions. Also, would say
to every man, woman and child to buy
land If possible to do so: buy good
lands if you can, but buy land. To my
way of thinking, lands are too high in
this western country, and ! base my
judgment on what | have seen. Ii is
the disposition of most people to be
dissatisfied with what they have, while
the opposite should be the case. Try
to be satisfied with what you have and
with your surroundings do not mean
by this that one should not wish for
and strive for more. | am of the opin-
ion that this country does not suit for
a poor man, and there is no need for
the well fixed to change. People COM
ing to this country from the black
lands of Texas and from the far North
find land cheap, while those coming
from East Texas and other timbered
sections find them high. Few men
come west and make money, while
many come and lose money. One may
say this Is so everywhere. This coun-
try has been a great field for specula-
ton, but the last two years have put
cdimp in the speculation business.
One can not read the great bargains
being offered in land through the adj
vertising mediums without wondering
why capital does not take them all.
Parts of our county will make a fair
crop, while other parts are very sorry.
Our gin at Maverick will run this sea-
son. Last season they did not turn a
wheel. Cotton picking has begun. This
is little early for us, because of hot,
dry weather. However, We had a good
rain August l. Grass is fairly good
and stock is looking well.

HOUSTON MARKET REVIEW.

Houston, Texas, Aug. 1.-THE week
has been quiet in all markets. The
latter part of the week showed a good
run on Produce Row for Sunday, but
the trading was confined in general
mostly to the staples. Apples continue
to move in brisk demand while the
orange trade is brisk. Cabbage is CON-
ing into greater demand, as green
vegetables are diminishing. Celery is
coming into the market again.
The chicken market is steady. Re
ceipts are not heavy and the demand
is god. Hens range around $4.50q 800.
Eggs are scarce, fresh receipts COM
ing in very sparsely. There is no
change in prices.
In the rice market advices from the
East tell of the cleaning up of the
Japan stocks by exporters with the
result that prices are high for the
small remaining spots. Adyices from
the South have been firm in this grade
OF rice, one telegram reporting sales
at 3 12c at the mill, presumably for ex-
