upon to settle funny things. For IN
stance there was a contention the

pire of Russia, with Capital at Petro-
gard, has an area of 8,647 ,657 square
miles. The United States, of which
Texas is part, has an area OF $685.
4S4 square miles. Russia has pop
ulation of 1879, 900; the population
of the United States is 1O2,SS,3O9.
But to come down more specifically
to the question, the Empire of Texas,
with capital at Austin, has an area OF
$685. 1892 square miles. Texas is some
what of country when it comes to
the territory over which it stretches,
but it is not quite in class with Rus
STA. That Empire is larger than the
whole North American continent by
48,4000 square miles.
