SENATOR ASTlN IN HOUSTON.

Legislation.

Senator j. R. Astin of Bryan is a
frequent visitor in Houston, but he
never comes without receiving a royal
welcome from his many friends in the
the genial senator was seen on the
streets, endeavoring to make his way
to the temple of justice where he had
some legal business to attend to.
Conditions are very fine in Brazos,"
said Senator Astin. Crops were good,
far above the average. The prices
they brought yielded a handsome
profit to the farmer, enabling him to
| pay his debts and leaving a balance
| to begin the new year with, all of
which conduces to the general pros
perity of the country" Asked about
q" approaching session of the legis-
lature, of which he will be a member,
the senator said he did not expect a
long session. In fact, there is no need
for the session to continue longer than
the constitutional period-sixty days.
All of the urgent matters ought to be
di"Uosed of within that time and he
will work to that end. He does not
anticipate any radical legislation or
jor any attempt to be made to disturb
the present harmonious conditions
prevailing throughout the state
There should be some modification
of the stock and bond law that will
enaDie railroads to make needed i'm
provements as well as extensions of
lines into territory not now traversed

NO FEAR OF WINTER.

The winter may wint as it lists and
carry its message of woe; the blizzard
may shrek as it twists and piles up
its pillows Of snow; l heed not the
elements ire, yearn not for summer
or spring; I've a book and a pipe by
the fire, and life is bully good thing.
The frosts lying thick on the pane,
the SHOWS lying deep at the door; but
Boreas threatens in vain, in vain does
he bully and roar! l have all the
things l desire, l reign in my home
like king; I've book and a pipe by
the fire, and storms are bully good
thing! Some go to far-off resort,
where blue is the midwinter sky,
scented breezes cavort, and weather is
fit for July. To naught of that sort |
aspire; you won't see your uncle take
wing; I've a book and a pipe by the
fire, and winters bully good thing.
I'm fond of the long winter nights,
when darkly the sky DER us bends,
when the windows of houses are
bright, and smoke from the chimney
ascends; there's nothing then doleful
or dire, l whistle and gambol and
sing; I've a pipe and a book by the
fire, the world is a bully good thing

ANNOUNCEMENTS
ADAM EDITED OUT.

First copies of the revised edition
of the Bible published by the Ameri.
can Baptist Publication Society have
reached the society's headquarters.
The new edition is radical departure
in its construction from the language
used in the King James version.
In the new Bible the names adam
and Eve" do not appear Their place
is taken by the words man" and
woman" which is a direct transla-
ton of the old Hebrew names.
Other great changes are made. The
story of Jonah and the whale is
changed so that the words great fish"
AS. being a nearly Interpretation of
the ancient Hebrew-take the place Of
whale" Jehovah thy God" takes
the place of Lord thy God" Carved"
replaces craven" and the word i'm
mersed" in parentheses follows the
word "baptize" in every instance. In
the new edition the Lords Prayer be-
comes:
Our Father who art in Heaven,
hallowed be Thy name Thy kingdom
come. Thy will be done as in Heaven
so on earth. Give us this day our
daily bread. And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And bring us not into temptation, but
deliver us from the evil one. Amen"
Owing to its recent arrival, none of
the Baptist ministers seen would COM
init themselves to an expression Of
opinion concerning the new edition,
saying that they had not yet had an
opportunity to study it. One of them,
when asked whether he thought the
charm of the old English phraseology
would not be spoiled by the altera-
lions, replied that the aim of the so
ciety had been to produce an abso-
