GOOD NEWS FOR WEST
TEXAS

Livestock interests of Texas
are particularly interested in tho
appropriation just put through
the house of representatives at
Austin by which funds are pro-
yided to increase the number of
inspectors Of the Livestock San
itary Commission and in other
ways provide for efficient work.
To West Texas and the Pan
handle this is perhaps the most
important item connected with
the present session of the legls-
lature and those sections have
cause 10 congratulate themselves
in that the appropriation is made
on a scale asked Dy Chairman
Waddell and the members of the
commission.
The work this commission is
doing is one of the most
important to the state. The
gradual pushing back Of the
quarantine line year by year
shows that results are being
secured. This is a direct money
benefit to the cattle industry.
The immediate return for any
one year is lluch greater than
the amount Of money expended
in the work. For instance. for
the past two years when the
appropriation was approximately
S34. 900 a year, 10000 cattle
were put above quarantine, or
more correctly speaking, the
quarantine was forced back be-
yond the territory upon which
that number Of cattle grazed.
At the lowest estimate Of 81 a
head added 10 the value Of the
cattle thus freed Of quarantine.
the direct return vas over $500, .
600. In some cases the increase
in value Of the cattle went a.

such work mounts into figures
that can scarcely be computed.
Work of this sort is practical
work. II is investment of the
sort advocated by those who are
striving TO arouse public senti-
ment to the Importance Of de-
veloping Texas resources.
A number of such propositions
have been before the house and
it is a good sign that they
have met with uniform success.
One OF these is the appropria-
ton, just authorized, for the in
vestigation of marketing of crops
and the supplying of marketing
information. Fifteen thousand
dollars for this purpose is set
aside in the fund given the state
department of agriculture.
Wednesday Sl2. 500 also was
set aside 20 assist in the develop
ment of the mineral wealth of
the state by providing for the
completion of information as to
what is under the surface.
Expenditures suce as these
come back many times over to
the state and are a wise exercise
of the powers of the Legislature.

PROPOSITION THAT SHOULD
APPEAL TO ALL

The suggestion that the state
of Texas provide for the payment
of its treasury warrants at their
face value is one that should
appeal to every fair minded
person.
As business proposition it
cannot well be opposed. II is a
plain statement that the state
should do just as other creditors
40 daily in business affairs, pay
the interest on the money
necessary to meet its honest
obligations.
There is no fairness in compel
ling the state creditors and en-
ployes to discount the warrants
for the money due them. The
state did not agree to pay its
employees four per cent less than
the salaries at which they were
employed. and it did not contract
to pay the men who have supplied
it four per cent less than the
specified price.
Being without funds it should
do as the individual would have
to do, obtain the fund and pay
the interest upon it until the time
treasury is IN condition to take
up the obligations.
Il is not hattering to the pres
tige of the state to have IT'S |. o.
US hawked about at discount.
No fair minded citizen will con.
tend that the employees who have
given their part of contracts
with the state should be the ones
to bear the burden Of the state
financial embarrassment. IL Is
the states load, and the state
should carry il.
State purchasing is done on a
system of competitive bidding.

RICHARDS GETS SIX
MONTHS In PRISON
Mount Rainier Man Tried on Charge
of Desertion and His
Letters Read.

About a dozen letters purporting u
be from Stewart r. Richards, formerly
clerk of the War Department, who
lived at Mount Rainier, to Mrs. Mary
Clancy, of 1903 Gallery Street North
east, were read yesterday in the trial of
Richards at Hyattsville on the charge
of desertion, which resulted in his being
sentenced by Justice of the Peace Joyce
to six months in the House of Correction
at Jessups Cut. One OF the letters was
of thirty-two closely written pages, and
the shortest OF the thirty-five said to
have been written since Christmas con-
tanned nineteen pages.
Richards is the same man who disap-
peared about November /. leaving a wife
and seven children at Mount Rainier. 1t
was later found that Mrs. CLANCY had
left her husband and five children to
join him in Baltimore.
Both returned to their families about
Christmas time and matters had been
patched up when Richards again disap-
peared and Thursday it was learned that
he was in Baltimore. II was alleged he
was trying to induce Mrs. Clancy to
rejoin him. Constable Garrison, of
Hyattsville, arrested him in Baltimore
yesterday morning and brought him back
for trial The sentence first imposed
was twelve months and 800 fine, but
that was recUced to six months at the
request Of Ricahrds' wife.

FLONzALEY QUARTET
CHARMS BIG AUDIENCE
Rendition Of Haydn and Tsehaikowsky
So Finished a to Be Above Crit
eism-Themes Well Chosen.

An appreciative audience gathered In
the ballroom at the New Willard yester-
day afternoon to hear the first concert
Of the season of the Flonzaley Quartet.
The programme comprised Haydn's Opus
16 No. ], one of those quartets written
after his visit to London, and in his
later manner. and Tschaikowsky's Opus
II, the first Of his three string quartets.
The brisk movements OF the Haydn
quartet are characterized by rhythmic
vitality and by the freshness of youth.
The adagio Is in a more serious mood.
These quartets of Haydn are a cour-
teous conversation in which the message
or themes are discussed. assented to, and
argued, at more or less length. but al
ways with quaint good humor, banter.
and often jocosity. There are no sub
tleties. no fnesse; the humor Is always
frank. In his earlier quartets Haydn
gave most of the work TO the first vio-
lin, employing the lower instruments as
foundation for the. rhythmic pulsations.
He has not quite recovered from this
manner in these later ouartets, Of which
this is one. DR.. Kuhac. In his little
pamphlet, traces Haydn to the Creates.
and his themes-especially his quartet
themes-to the South Slavonic folk song.
He says the curves of his melodies are
not those of the German folk song: and
his meters and rhymes are far more nu-
merous and varied than those OF either
the German or English folk song. These
Crostian folk tunes are the stones with
which Haydn lays the foundation Of his
quartets.
The most interesting work of the Flon-
zaley Quartet yesterday afternoon was
done in the Tschaikowsky number.
Tschaikowsky distributes his work more
evenly among his instruments than does
Haydn; moreover. his is more subtle.
more dramatic. The "Andante Can
table," played with muted strings, is a
study IN finesse. II is built upon a Sla-
vic folk tune. and the rhythmic device
alone Is a point of subtlety. swaying in
termittently between two-four and three
four time. The lovely melody is IDEAL
lied in many ways: the violin sings II
softly on the G string TO a pizzicato &C
compartment OF lower strings: again the
two violins and viola sing the melody
to cello pibbicato. The scherzo Is a
piquant. staccato movement. The finale
contains a beautiful melody tor the A
string on the cello.
As there is an inferiority beneath
criticism, there is also a superiority
above II. The work of the Flonzaleys
is so finished. of such a high order of
musicianship that a detailed account OF
their excellences would seem super
fiuous.

Capt. Amundsen met Capt. Peary, dis
coverer of the north pole. He told the

Yes" said Capt. Amundsen, II shall
start the trip from west to east across
the north polar regions. We are going to
use the good old ship Fran. which we
have hitherto found so useful.
II expect II will take US about five years
to get across the northern regions. We
shall drift with the current, which is
known TO pass from east TO west through
those regions
The Fran will be fitted with wireless
apparatus through which Capt. Amund-
sen says he will send observations back
to the world. All messages will be CEN
sored. No bad news viii be permitted to
be received by any members OF the crew
because OF its probable bad effects on
them.
The new expedition will be started In
July. 1914 The Fran, which Is now lay
fpr will ha hra NJ

and refitted or 10 some American port on
the Pacific Coast and fitted for her long
