A FINGER IN THE PIE.
The troubles of the troublesome Turk
are rapidly multiplying. Heretofore we
have had only a humanitarian interest in
the affairs of the sick mam of Europe and
have been able to watch the doings of his
fanatical subjects without peirsonal con-
cern in, the outcome. But now things are
different. The news of the assassination
of the United States consul at Beirut puts
an entirely ■different phase on the situation
when viewed from the American stand-
point. Beirut is ’way down in Syria, a
long way from the seat of the Turk’s most
serious trouble. But the government at
Constantinople is as much responsible for
the fanatical Syrians as it is for the actions
of the Macedonians in European Turkey.
Russia has set the pace in this matter of
compelling the Turk to protect its agents
in 'Turkey. When a Russian consular
agent was recently assassinated it took
the government of the czar but a short
time to demand satisfaction and incident- ’
ally to get it in the shape of the execution
of the murderers. Our state department
has not yet had time to take, the matter;
up thoroughly, but an energetic start has
the old man has sounded the morning
tocsin may take warning from the action
of a father in Des Moines, Iowa, several
days ago, who shot one son for failure
to rise When called and chased another
in ,a night robe a couple of blocks for
the same offense. Barred staves and old
slippers have worked miracles in the ris-
ing hour of the young men of the past
generations, but if the Colts come into gen-
eral use as an argument for 5 o'clock
rising it may become decidedly more pop-
ular to rise “at 5 and thrive.”
HEAVIEST LEAK IN FARMING.
Denison Herald.
One thing that Texas farmers seem to be
unable to comprehend, and that is that the
rain and hot sunshine are death to farm-
ing utensils and machinery, and that a
machine left out in the weather will not
last much more than one season, when
if prpoperly taen care of it would last
from ten to, twenty. That is one of the
heaviest leake in Texas farming—failure
to take care of the farm macinery and
give it proper protection.
WHAT A MAN CAN DO.
Austin Statesman.
A man can have a hard time if he looks
for it, and he will get smiles in exchange
for his cheerfulness if he chooses that
course, A man can believe he lives in a
dead town if he tries to believe it, even
though it isn’t a fact. He can also help
to liven up the situation considerably by
looking for the advantages of his own town
and crying down the disadvantages of oth-
er towns. He will thus soon discover his
town to be the best on earth for him.

New York, N. Y„, Aug. 27.—John I.
Davenport, formerly United States super-
visor of elections, whose death has just
occurred at Stamford, Conn., was once a
power in Republican politics in this city.
After serving through the civil war he
became a newspaper correspondent at
Washington.
In 1868, when congress appointed a com-
mittee to investigate election frauds in
New York, Davenport was made the sec-
retary of the Union League club commit-
tee which, had the matter in charge. This
marked his start ini politics. Upon the en-
actment of a law for the Federal super-
vision of elections he was the first ap-
pointee ais supervisor in this city. He
continue din this post until 1892, when the
bill was repealed. 1
It was Davenport’s custom to make ar-
rests on the night before election and his
prisoners, men of all sorts, were thrown
into a cage which he had built in a room
of the general pastoffice. The use of the
cage brought its builder much notoriety.
Davenport, who was at one time ac-
counted a wealthy man, is said to have
died in comparative poverty.
REV. GEORGE LEIGHTON.
Wilkesbarre, PaM Aug;; 27,—Rev. 'Geo.
Leighton. is dead at his home in Tunkai-
hannock at the age of 83. In her suit five
years1 ago for a widow’s share of the es-
tate, a woman, claimed Rev, Leighton
married her to- Jay Gould when the latter
was 19 in a small town in upper New
York state, near Rouses Point. She had
no marriage certificate.
The icaise hinged on Mr. Leighton’s
ability to prove: the marriage. He said
he could remember marrying several
young couples at the time described, but
he could not rcooilcct either names or
faces and had no record of the wedding.
THE WEATHER.
been madel and the chances are that the
Turk will be speedily brought to book and
taught that it is not a good thing to shoot
down agents of this government as was
the case at Beirut. It may be that we will
Insist upon taking a. hand in the matter of
reckoning with the Turk and that the in-
cident may possibly embroil us more or
less. *
Turkey formerly possessed a splendid
army which might be depended on in any
emergency to give a good account of it-
splf. But recently it appears that the army
is without discipline and that the lack of
means wherewith to pay the men has al-
most entirely destroyed its efficiency. If
this be true then indeed is it necessary
that the Turk should exercise his best
diplomacy to avoid any conflict not only
■with Europe and the United States, but
with his own people as well. In short
the assassination of the Beirut consul has
considerably mixed things up and made
more trouble foir the Turk than he has had
for some time.
The vital statistics of the 12th census
shows that the death rate exceeds the birth
rate among the negroes in nearly all the
cities in the country. This goes to show
that lynching is not necessary to avoid
the danger of negro supremacy.
Now that Mr. Corbett is again doing a
monologue stunt in vaudeville it is quite
evident that he was. not knocked speech-*
less by Mr. Jeffries in their squared circle
conversazione at ’Frisco recently.
Kling Peter of .Servia is said to have
threatened to abdicate twice in ten days, i
If he waits much longer his army chiefs
may save him the trouble of carrying out
his threats.
Now that Gera1. Miles has been taken up
by George Fred Williams, the Boston free
silver crank, and other eastern anti-
imperialists, his political death is now a
certainty. ,
As New Yorkers are expected to pay at
least $10 a seat for grand opera next win-
ter, it looks like the hoi polloi will be driven
to vaudeville.
It now looks as if there might be some
chance of the America’s cup being lifted
by Shamrock XIII.
Press Pickings.
TEXAS’ RATE OF INTEREST.
Laredo Times.
The Daily Bond News, the financial sheet
of Wall street, has thrown its hands aloft
in horror at the spectacle of the state of
Texas purchasing $500,000 Bexar county
good roads bonds for the school fund at
4 per cent. “These bonds should have
borne 5 per cent at least,” shouts this
financial organ of the metropolis. It is a
shame, in the estimation of the Bond
News, for the state to buy municipal
bonds, thus coming into competition with
the bond dealers of Wall street. It says:
“The reluctance of the market at the
present juncture to take even 4 per cen^
municipal securities o£ favored localities

RECORD IN ERECTING BUILDING.
“Eleven Hundred Feet of World’s Fair
Structure in 26 Days.
St. Louis, Mo.—Building 1100 feet of the
Agricultural Palace at the World’s Fair in
26 days is the feat of Charles T. Caldwell,
who closed his school books only six years
ago. The young superintendent has prom-
ised to complete the 1800 foot structure
within 50 days, the fastest work in the
history of exposition making.
More wonder belongs to his rapid task
since it has been accomplished with a gin
pole, a simple mast with block and tackle,
while other contractors have used steam
hoisting derricks and travelers. Every one
of Mr. Caldwell’s rows of pillars and
trusses, weighing ten-tons, has been raised
on a pole that cost $50. Another contract-
or's apparatus on the site cost him $36,000.
At the end of the 26 days the staff dec-
orators were covering the cornice at the
north end of the building, fronting the
administration group. They will follow the
carpenters day by day.
Caldwell established a world's record for
rapid building when he erected the im-
mense West Baden hotel in Indiana. It
has 612 rooms and a dome 200 feet in diam-
eter. The ^structure arose from Its foun- >
dations to the pinnacle of the deme in
eight and one-half months.
Other buildings out on the World’s Fair
site have seemed to crawl; Caldwell’s pon-
derous mass has been sprinting down the ■
course of I860 feet, which constitutes its
floor length. Agriculture seems to spring1
from the splendid site it has on the big
hil south of the Administration building.
It has a frontage of 600 feet, while all oth-
er exhibit palaces measure 625 feet across
their narrow sides. Transportation, the
largest structure in the Forest Park sec-
tion, is 1300 feet long. Agiculture is 1800:
feet from north to south. This is the dif-
ference betwd^n the largest building and
the next in size.
“If we experience no unforeseen acci-
dents I will turn over the Agricultural
building to the Exposition management,
completed, on Dec. 1,” he said.
This means that the construction will
be finished in 50 days from the start. The
staff decoration and painting of the ex-
terior will, of course, take longer, but this
part of the work is mere outside show and
does not prevent the installation of ex-
hibits.
GERMAN SYRUP.
We want to impress on our readers that
Boschee’s German Syrup is positively the
only preparation on the market today that
does relieve and cure consumption. It
contains the specifics, such as pure tar,
extracts of gums, etc., which have been
so highly indorsed for the cure of coughs,
colds and consumption by the great medi-
cal congreses. The consumptive, whether
his diseease is in the throat or lungs
must have rest at night, and be free from
the spasm of dry and racking cough in
the morning. The diseased parts want
rest, healing and soothing treatment, and
the patient needs fresh air, good ftod,
etc. German Syrup will give free and easy
expectoration in the mornilig with speedy
and permanent relief. Smail bottle, 25
cents; regular size', containing nearly four
times as much, 75 cents. At a,';l druggists.
The local office of the weather bureau
predicts probably showers for tonight and
tomorrow. There is more probability of
the showers falling tomorrow than tonight.
Light to fresh southerly Winds should
blow. The chances are that by tomorrow
night much cooler weather will be record-
ed in Galveston than is on tap today. A
pronounced cooler weather “high” is cen-
tral in the northwest today and all condi-
tions are favorable for its moving this way.
A light frost was recorded at Lander,
Wye., last night- and a. minimum temper-
ature of 36 degrees, or four degrees above
freezing, was recorded there last night.
This cooler weather should reach the
Panhandle of Texas by late to night.
FOR GALVESTON AND VICINITY.
Probably showers tonight and Friday.;
fresh southerly winds.

Elizabeth Anderson Improving After a
Struggle Against Death.
Greenwich. Conn.—For ten days Eliza-
beth Anderson, the 15-year-old daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. William Anderson, has been
hiccoughing, and after a struggle that
promised to end in her death, she is now
on the road to recovery, although the
hiccoughing has not stopped. A week ago
Saturday, after a hearty meal, the hic-
coughing started and for four hours it
continued. Her parents then summoned
Dr. Clarke.
By that time the girl was' in hysterics.
Since then and up to Thursday last she
had periods of hiccoughing and hysteria
lasting from two to four hours. On Thurs-
day she was removed to the Greenwich
Emergency hospital, where she now is.
Greenwich physicians are giving the case
much attention, and they say It is the
worst case of the kind they have ever seen
The hysteria continues, but the hiccough-
ing spells now last only an hour at a time
and the girl is able to rest nights.

AN OLD SAYING.
Showing How Cause and Effect Are
Never Far Removed.
It is an old saying “Where there’s honey
there’s bees”—not less true is one which
science has coined more recently, “Where
there’s Dandruff there’s germs”—and—to
push the inference still further we may
say “Where there’s Dandruff cured New-
bro’s Herpicide has been at work.”
The reason of Herpicide’s Isolation as a
genuine cure, for Dandruff lies in the fact
that it attacks and destroys the root of
the whole touble—a parasitic germ which
feeds upon the material which nourishes
the hair follicle.
Other so-called remedies are not directed
at this true cause of the disease,
