The railroads are doing a splendid
work in the devebpment of Texas.
Tothe enterprise and courage of the
railways is due a generous share of
the growth and progress of the state.
They labor incessantly to attract the
-attention of home-builders- It is not
all for selfish interest. The men who
build the railways of Texas recognize
the possibilities which presented them-
selves to the hand of enterprise and
"it wis no desert they sought to de-
"velope and populate. The rich marshes
al Illinois the river bottoms of Indi-
ana and Ohio have given to humanity
nothing of more value than these men
recognized in undeveloped Texas
Hence it was that their energy and
-wealth was directed to the building of
iron highways and now they are doing
a splendid work in calling the attention
of home-seekers to this garden of
promise. While they receive diiect
returns trom every additional inhabi-
tant gained for the state yet is their
gain not so great as to him who is
trougnt to a realization of the oppor
iuflitTeslrh1chawait his lndiutryln the
.fair fields of Texas.
The railways should be encouraged
Jk their work from which Texas de-
rives so much. Houston Age.
Improvements in the way of resi-
dences out-buildings and fence re-
pairs are noticeable in all parts of the
city an encouraging indication of re-
turning prosperity in Abilene as well
as all other Texas cities
That old story that we are high is
being exploded to the satisfaction of
all who try us. Why don't you be fair
npgh to give us a jriil

Bhrowd fishcrmon do not nhvaya
know what kind of polo is best Thia
thought isrsnggested by tho remark
of tho Into Polcg Wash burn tho man
who gavo soldiers' monuments to
Abbot and Foxcrof t. A Doxtcr bank
official approached Washburn who
was well known to bo a man of
means with a suggestion that it
would bo a good thing for him to
put sonio of his monoy into western
mortgages which boro a high rate
of interest. Tho old man scratched
his pato for a moment and then
blurted out "I don't liko to fish
with such a long polo." Thoforco
of tho motaphor and of tho incident
is heightened when it is remembered
that Washburn was ono of tho easy
victims of JudgoHulo of Foxcroft
and loaned him $10000 on his
"town" notes. Perhaps in that caso
tho fish polo was too short for safe
ty. Lowiston Journal.

"I never felt so provoked in my

"And your new hat is certainly n

Tho old Constitution could with
her best guns at 1000 yards pierce
22 inches of oak about the thickness

fivo-eighth incb steel covering at tho
Atlanta's water lino had nearly tho
same resisting power as tho Consti-
tution's 22 inches of oak. Tho At-
lanta's 6 inch guns will at 1000

Napoleon and the Klnc of Prussia.
In tho afternoon tho king of Prus-
sia with his staff was generallyn-
vjted to join their cavalcade for a
rido. Tho emperor of tho Frenoh
gavo a malicious account of those
jaunts in later years". Himself a
fearless horseman ho spurred his
charger to full speed and tho czar
followed with glee whilo tho king

It A little incident occurred
npon a Philadelphia street car
tho other night that brought this
thought forcibly homo to the minds of
passengers. Stopping at Arch street
a little girl helped hor father to his
seat. He was a big powerful man
who would not under ordinary cir-
cumstances need any assistance of
this nature but upon this occasion he
had tarried too long at a near-by
saloon. He was very much under the
influence of liquor. As they sat in the
car one ot the little girl's
hands stole quietly into the broad
palm of her father. A tear stood In
either eye for she knew her mother
was worrying at home. A sick baby
had forced her to remain while the
daughter was dispatched after the
erring parent. After going several
squares the little girl motioned to th
conductor to stop the car. He did so.
She tugged at ber father's arm and
aroused him from his drunken stupor.
"Come papa" Bhe said "we must
get out here. We are nearly home."
The father pulled himself together
and started to alight It was a hard
task for him and th little one was
quick to notice It
"Lean on me papa sho bravely
said as she took hold of his arm. And
nearly borne down by tho wehrht the
father was enabled to reach the street
safely. The car passed on. Tears
stood In the eyes of the passengers as
they quietly watched the pair pass
out of sightdn an adjoining etreet
Snake Mountain.
There Is a horss-shoe-shaped moun-

warms with snaked twice every year.
In the early autumn those slippery
customers gather there from all di-

try of the South. In one side of the
mountafn there Is a circular holt
about fifteen feet deep and as smooth
as If it had been fashioned with aa
anger where tens of thousands of
reptiles spend the co)d winter months
together. Persons who have tried to
explore this immense snake den dur-
