In the course of a speech in the Sen- ate recently on a proposition to di- vide the state of Texas, Mr. Bailey said in,part: i “If. Texas: had contained a popula- tion in 1845 suilficient to have justi fied ker admission as five states, it is my opinion that she would have been so admitted then, because the all-ab- sorbing slavery issue, which, happily, no longer vexes us, but which com- pletely at that time, would have led to that result. I will go further even than { that, and I will say that if Texas were now five states-there would not be five men in either state who would seriously propose their consolidation into one. But, sir, Texas was not di- vided "in the beginning, Texas is not ‘divided now, and under the Provi- dence of God she will not be divided until the end of time. Her position is exceptional, and excites within the minds of all her citizens a just and natural pride. est of all the states in area, and cer- tain to become the greatest of all in population, wealth and influence. With such a primacy assured to her she could not be expected to surren- der jt even. to obtain an increased representation in this body. etl “But, Mr. President, while from her proud prominence today she looks upon a future as bright with promise as ever beckoned a people to follow. where fate and.fortune lead, it is mot so much the promise of the future’as it is the memory of a glorious ‘past which appeals to her against division. She could partition ‘her.fertile valleys and her broad prairies; she could ap- portion her thriving towns “and grow: ing cities; she could distribute her splendid population and her wonder- ful resources, but she could not .di- vide the fadeless glory of those days that are past and gone.. To which of her daughters could she assign with- out irreparable injustice to all the oth- ers the priceless inheritance of Goliad, the Alamo and San Jacinto? To which would she bequeath the name of Hous- ton, and Austin, and Fannin, and Bowie, and Crockétt? . Sir, the fame of these men and .their less illustrious but not less worthy comrades cannot be severed. They are the common glory of all, and their names are writ ten upon the tables of her grateful memory so that all time shall not ef- face them. The story of their mighty deeds which rescued Texas from the condition of a despised and oppressed Mexican province and made her a free and independent republic still rouses the blood of her men like the sound of a trumpet, and we would not forfeit the right to repeat it to our children even for many ‘ additional seats in this august assembly. “The world has never witnessed a sublimer courage or a more unselfish patriotism than that which illumi- nates almost every page in the early history of Texas, Students may know more about other battlefields, ‘but none was ever consecrated by the blood of braver men than those who fell at Goliad. Historians may not record it as one of the great and de- cisive battles, but the victory of the Texans at San Jacinto is destined to exert a better influence upon the hap- piness of the human race than all the conflicts = which established or sub verted the petty kingdoms of the an- cient world. Poets have not yet.im- mortalized it in their most enduring verse, but the Alamo is more resplend- ent with bherioc sacrifice than was Thermopylae itself, because Ther- mopylae had her messenger of death, while the Alamo had none. ! “Mr. President, if I might be .per- mitted to borrow the apostrophe to liberty and union-‘pronounced by a dis- tinguished Senator, I would say oi Texas: ‘She is one and inseparable, now and forever.” ” QUAINT AND CURIOUS. One of the most remarkable opals in existence is supposed to be a fossil fragment of the cinioliasaurus, which once lived in Australia, reaching a length of forty feet. The specimen, lately brought to Mew York, weighs 1150 carats. The idea that roast dog is an ordi- nary article of diet among the Chinese is an entirely erroneous one, for the simple reason that the edible dog is too costly to be commonly eaten. It is a luxury enjoyed by the rich alone, and that only on state occasions. H. Hollenback, of Boulder Creek, Cal., was kicked over a 200-foot preci- pice by his mule, but fifty feet down fell into a large woodrat’'s nest in a redwood tree, 150 feet from the ground. There he stayed until a party of rescuers got him down with ropes. There are several species of fish, reptiles and insects which never sleep in the whole of their existence. Among fish it is positively known that pike, salmon and goldfish never sleep at all, also that there are several others in the fish family that never sleep more than a few minutes a month. There are dozens of species of flies which never indulge in slumber. On a certain goose farm in the Mid- dle West there is an incubator with a capacity for ten thousand eggs.

The customary dam- age from fleods has rendered many mills idle and several minor events added to the number of unemployed, but these temporary adverse’ fea- tures are mere than offset by the re- sumption of outdoor work, especially in building ops ations and on the farms. Buyers arriving a large numbers at primary markets, weather are warm accelerating preparations for Easter trade. Manufacturing activity continues, the best news of the week coming from the .iron and steel in- dustry, new records are con- established. Textile . plants also ingly busy. Railway earnings for the first two weeks of March were 7.96 per cent. larger than last year and foreign com- merce ‘at this port for the last week shows’ a ‘gain of $2,077,012 in exports and $175,258 in imports, as compared with 1694. Holders and makers of iron and steel products appear to have secured ccatrol of the situation. It is no longer considered desirable to 'de- lay the placing of contracts: in ‘ex- pectation of better terms: Although boom conditions have been avoided thus far comparatively steady quotations ‘prevail, it is possible that in some departments of the industry urgent orders may soon go abroad. Two special features have developed during the past week, .a.. maximum movement of iron ore was announced and the largest single contract on record for steel billets was placed. In addition -the recent record breaking output of coke was further increased. Strength is seen in the hide market. Leather is quiet.

An eminent physician says that] « "Women are not truthful; they will lie to their physician.’” This statement should be qualified; women do tell the truth, but not the whole truth, to a : male physician, but this is only in re- gard to those painful and troublesome disorders peculiar to their s There can be no more terrible ordeal to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman than to be obliged to answer certain questions when those questions are - asked,. even by her family physician This is especially the case with un-| married women. Is it any wonder, then, that women continue to suffer and that doctors fail to cure female diseases when they cannot get the proper information to work on ? ; This is the reason why thousands and thousands of women are now corre- sponding with Mrs. Pinkham. - To her they can and do give every symptom, so that she really knows more about the true condition of her patients. through her correspondence with them than the physician who personally questions them. | If you suffer from any form of trouble peculiar to women, write at once to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., and she will advise you free of charge. The fact that this.great boon, which is extended freely to.women by. Mrs. Pinkham, is appreciated, the thou- sands of letters received by her prove. Many such grateful letters as the fol- lowing are constantly pouring in. Mrs. Ella Lee, Frankford, Ind., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham :— “I want to thank you for what your medi- cine has done for me. r : ‘Three years-ago I had inflammation of the ovaries and ulcers on my womb.

Farmer of 2809 Elliott Avenue, St. Louis, Mo., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham :— ** I cannot thank youenough for what your advice and medicines have done for “me.

No other medicine has such a record for actual cures of female ills as has Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women to write her for advice. She has guided thousands to health. Address, Lynn, Mass. Ask Hrs. Pinkham's Advice—A Woman Best Understands A Woman's Mls. coffee without good material. counters won't do.
