cause and enthusiasm over the out.
look for the coming national campaign
formed the keynote of great gather.
ing of prohibition party leaders and
temperance reformers which assem-
bled in this city today. The meeting
here tomorrow of the prohibitionist
national committee is the magnet that
has served to attract the foes of liquor
from all parts of the country. At this
meeting the committee will fix the
time and place for holding the ma
tional convention to name the party
candidates for president and vice pres
ident of the United States.
Following precedent, the convention
will be held the latter part of May or

mittee are said to favor the proposal
to hold the convention in the far West.

TUNING the Furniture.

Before a piano tuner can get good
results he sometimes has to tune up the
general furniture as well as the piano."
said an expert tuner 1.-THE other day
was sent for to tune piano that had
not been out Of the factory six weeks.
1t was fine piano, but every time

tin pans let loose sounded through the
room. l worked all morning without
making any improvement, Finally
examined the rest of the furniture, and
pretty soon l discovered the cause Of
those jangling chords. A cabinet filed
with old brass plates, platters and
pieces of armor stood against the same
wall. One leg was shorter than the
others, and every time l struck the
piano keys the vibrations caused a
slight tipping Of the cabinet and set
the brass contents a-jiggling, point
ed out the uneven legs to the pianist

Remaining Indians.

Some years ago In order to make
their Inheritance of land more simple
and secure our government commits
stoned DR.. Charles A. Eastman, q
Sioux Indian, to rename more than
$4,000 Sioux with their family names.
The task was a tremendous one and
full of difficulties. Where possible Dr.
Eastman kept the original Sioux name
Of some member Of Il family, as In be-
slowing the name "Matoska," meaning
white Bear" on the family Of that
chief. Sometimes the combination OF
wife's name and husbands name has
produced musical result, such as
'Winona DIANA" The favorite name
for women means she who has a
beautiful home" which DR.. Eastman
has Anglicized in the patronymi"
"Goodhouse. But by far the hardest
task was in finding new names for the
abSurdities of Indian nomenclature.
"Bobtailed Coyote" was young In
dian who has come to prefer himself
rs Robert #. Wolf" After long
struggle with Rotten Pumpkin" DR.,
Eastman at last recorded the owner of
the name on the tribal records under
the noncommittal title of Robert
Pumpian."

Sherlock Holmes, Oriainal.

Sir A. Conan Doyle often recounted
incidents regarding DR.. Joseph Bell,
the distinguished Scottish surgeon
from whom his character of Sherlock
Holmes was drawn. One Of the most
remarkable was this:
DR. Bell was lecturing to his class in
surgery, Of which Doyle was one, when
in regard to the subject he remarked:
"Of course this man has been a sol
der in a highland regiment and prob
ably bandsman.'
The man had the soldiers swagger,
but was too short to be anything but a
bandsman, the doctor explained. The
man vehemently denied this and said
be was shoemaker DR.. Bell, still
confident that his powers of reasoning
and deduction had not led him astray,
had the man stripped and on the left
side of his chest found little blue
ID" branded on the skin. The doctor
then declared to his class:
This man was Il deserter. This Is
the way they were marked in the Cri-
mean days, though it is not permitted
now"

How the Dust Gets In,

When the barometer falls the air
around expands into larger volume,
and the air inside the bookcase, the
clothes closet and the cupboard also
expands and forces itself out at every
minute crevice. When the barometer
rises again the air inside the cupboard,
as well as outside. Condenses and
shrinks and the air is forced back into
the cupboard to equalize the pressure,
and along with the air in goes the
dust The smaller the creviCe the
stronger the JET of air, the farther
goes the dirt Witness the dirt tracks
SO often seen in imperfectly framed
engravings or photographs Remember
whenever you see the barometer rising,
that an additional charge Of dust is
entering your cupboard and bureau

AndaIusian Girls,

Despite their attractions Andalusiar
girls only marry after very long en-
gagements, sometimes lasting ten
years. One girl who has been engag
ed four years has lover who comes
from-a distance twice a year to see
her, and yet he has never once men
toned matrimony. He lives with his
mother and no doubt keeps her, for
Spanish mothers have great influence
over their sons. When Mt last mar
rage takes place the bride has often
to reside with her mother-in-law, to
whom custom requires her to be most
subservient. Extremely devoted to
their own mothers, Andalusian girls
are in no hurry to marry should their
doing so require them to live at any
distance from their old home. On the
other hand, they do not appreciate
having to wait ten years, but, as they
say, mo hay remedio" there is nc
remedy).-Seville Letter.

Initials as Pen Names,

Greatness has sometimes disguised
itself under initials, About the middle
of the eighteenth century there was
published book entitled THE Miscel-
laneous Works. Comical and Divert
ing. by #. r. ID. j. S. d. o. S. p. l. l."
This pompous array of initials hardly
succeeded in concealing the personality
of the Rev. DR.. Jonathan Swift, dean
of St Patrick's. in Ireland. A more
effective disguise was adopted by Ar
thur Sykes. the author of an Inquiry
into the Meaning of DemOniacks In
the New Testament" The author
takes refuge in Initials, styling himself
"T. p. A. F. o A. B. |. T. G. o. s."

Bua Power.

If asked to name the strongest ami
mails most persons begin with the lar
gest, the elephant, and continue with
oxen, horses, etc. This is, of course
correct in 50 far as their total horse
power is concerned, but for real
strength, proportional to the size and
weight of he animal, one must go to
the insect world. Compared with in
sects, the strength of almost any large
animal, and especially Of man, is alb
surd. A man is considered strong if
he can drag a mass weighing three or
four times as much as himself, but
the beetle will walk with 500 times his
own weight. If a man were placed
under a wooden box with five times
his weight on top to hold it down he
would remain there indefinitely, but
to retain a stag beetle prisoner in the
same way one must pile on top of the
box at least 1900 times its weight

HOUSTON MARKET REVIEW

Houston, Texas, Dec. ga sudden
relaxation in one section of the South
in the general holding movement
caused the price of cotton to fall be-
low the Scent level during the week.
Spot markets declined under a liberal
crop movement and tendency to in
crease the size of the estimates Of the
crop. The New Orleans Times-Demo-
crat places the crop at 14,S35, 900 bales,
exclusive OF linters and repacks. Some
believe this really means an estimate
of something like 15,300,000 bales. A
simultaneous Texas estimate was as
high as 15,S45,OO0 bales. December no.
tees in New York amounted to at
least 10000 bales, and being larger
than expected had a depressing effect.
The Houston produce market is pre-
pairing for the holiday rush and stock
ing up in consequence. The first of
the month brought in the retailers, re-
plenishing their stocks for the month,
and especially for the holiday trade.
All commission men are carrying large
stocks. Prices in general are steady
and unchanged from the usual run
during the season.
California now is supplying great
part of the Texas trade. California
oranges are coming in strong with the
Florida variety. Celery, cabbage, cram
berries and other California vegeta-
bles are plentiful.
Turkeys average 10011c. The
chicken market is gradually picking
up, but it is still overloaded Eggs
are wholesaling at 25@26c. They
probably will go higher, for no receipts
are coming in. Practically all the cold
storage eggs are gone. The Kansas
egg market is being called on for
Texas supply. Butter is higher.
Houston bank clearlngs for the
week were $39,S13,000.

When Vapor Is Dry.

Mr.. NJ. Mott-Smith points out in Sci.
ence popular misconceptiOn in the
supposition that aqueous vapOr and ice
are wet. They are in themselves dry
and become wet only when they turn
to water. $50 dry is aqueous vapor
that 1t will dry any moist object that
it comes in contact with" Superheat-
ed steam before it condenSes is a dry
gas. Ice feels wet if the temperature
of the hand is sufficient to melt it. AS
ice it is dry. Another misconception
is that the air can he either moist or
dry. 1t is condensed aqueous vapOr in
the air that is moist, and it would be
moist if there were no air. A given
quantity of aqueous vapor confined in
given space will be wet or dry ac-
cording to the temperature, At 80 de-
grees, for instance it might be partial
ly condensed and consequently wet
while at 20 degrees, owing to eXpan-
sion, it would be dry.
