LOGUE LEAVES FOR HOME.
Primate of Ireland Will Never See
America Again.
New York, June 8.—Cardinal Loguel
Primate of Ireland. Balled Saturday for
Europe on the steamer Campania, af-
ter a sojourn In this country of five
weeks, which he declared to havel
been the moat eventful of bis life.
Just before the steamer sailed Car
dinsl Logue said:
“In leaving this country. I wish It]
every success and prosperity. 1 have]
been received with the greatest kind-
ness by people of all creeds and alll
beliefs, and depart with only the kind|
est memories of America and Ameri-
cans.” ■
' "When will you return?” he was]
asked.
The venerable prelaie shook hw
head, and with a smile replied:
“I am afraid I am getting a little]
too old to travel—too old to make
another trip across the Atlantic—b«t|
I would like to come again. I have]
a real affection for the people here(
“I think your President is a very
great man, indeed,” the Cardinal con-
tinued. “I found him a most pleas-
ant and agreeable gentleman, and was
greatly Impressed by his forcefulnessm
Asked for his views on immigration^
from Ireland, the Cardinal said: ■
“Too many of my race have left
their native land. I hope the exodus
la about to cease. Ireland needs the
bone and brawn of her own sons and
(laughters for its future development!
The Irish immigrant has done much!
to help in the building tip of America.
It Is now time to begin the rejuvoj
noting of Ireland itself.”

NEATH TRAILER.
Houston Sneed, aged 28 years, t
negro, residing at No. 518 North
Montgomery Street, Sherman, was fa-
tally injured in thlsvclty while at-
tempting to board a moving intern r-
ban car at the comer of Mirlck Ave-
nue and Main Street, last night at
7:30 o’clock. Sneed was standing on
the southeast comer when a car
drawing a trailer arrived from Sher-
man and stopped. After letting of?
several passengers, the train began
to move around the corner and Sneed
suddenly made a dash for the rear
platform of the front car, and, missing
the last handheld, fell between It and
the trailer. The wheels of the trail-
er passed over the body In the cen-
ter, derailing the ca*.
The motorman brought bis train
to a sudden stop and the bleeding

ployes are entirely blameless in the
matter.

SOFT SNAP IN THE REVENUE
SERVICE.
San Antonio, Texas, June 8.—The
axe has fallen.
Major Mose Harris’ official head
lies in the basket.
His scalp-lock dangles from the belt
of the Hon. Cecil Lyon, National Com-
mitteeman, State Chairman, personal
friend of the President, and then some.
Major Mose dared him to do it, and
he “done It.”
The letter, which to quote at its
own classic language, “separated”
Maj. Mose from his Jph, is as follows:
“Internal Revenue. Service, Third
District of Texas, ‘Collector's Office,
Austin, Texas, June a, 1908.—Mr. M.
C. Harrris, Deputy Collector, San An-
tonio, Texas; Dear Sir:—You are noti-
fied that your separation from serv-
ice of the Govoramdist wa Deputy Col-
lector of Internal Revenue, is effect-
ive from this day, (June 1, 1908).
“You will please turn over to the
local deputy at San Antonio all papers
and government property yon may
have, taking his receipt in duplicate
for same, transmitting to this office
the copy and retaining the other.—Re-
spectfully,
“WEBSTKR FLANAGAN.
“Collector.”
Major Harris didn’t bat ah eye when
he read this communication. He
bought a return ticket to Chicago, in-
cluding sleeper coupons, gathered up
the papers in his contest of the dele-
gation from Texas, and hied himself
to the Windy City by the lake.
But before going he took his trusty
pen in hand and wrote a few lines,
using the letter as a text. These few
lines appear In the Major's paper,
"The Texas Republic,” which was
Issued today. The Major uaed a spe-
cial brand of ink in which vitro! la a
leading ingredient. Among other
things he says:
"A few weeks ago, at Fort Worth,
the Editor of The Republic waa as-
sured by Col. Cecil Lyon that at the
’snap of his (Lyon's) finger.' the edit-
or's head would fall into the basket
A courteous and emphatic invitation
was extended him to lose no time in
snapping It, if he so desired to do.
“Evidently, he promptly acted on
the suggestion, for a peremptory order
immediately followed from Hon. G. B.
Cortelyou, Secretary of the Treasury,
and Hon. Jno. O. Caples, Commission
er of Internal Revenue, directing the
severance of The Republic's editor

New Orleans Paper Finds Also That
the Crop la In Bad Way.
New Orleans, June 8.—The Times
Democrat says:
The Tlmes-Democrat herewith pre-
sents the first, of its reports on the
cotton crop of 1908. The Concensus
of correspondents’ opinion seern to
be as folfows:
The acreage is practically unchang-
ed as compared with last. year. The
change, If any, has been lu tho divis-
ion of a trifling Increase.
The stands have been impaired,
and cultivation has been retarded by
excessive rainfall over wide areas of
the belts.
The supply of labor is, as a rule,
better than It has been within the
recent past.
Complaints of boll weevil come
from certain districts to the west-
ward of the Mississippi.
The outlook taken as a whole is
fair, but the ultimate outcome will
depend upon the character of the sea-
son from this time forth, and the dale
of frost will cut a great figure.
A good deal of alluvial land tv-
been overflowed, and the result of re-
planting is to the last degree proble-
matical.
