are not such tools as that never
having been outside of Browns
ville to visit any of the country
districts qf the count and in pur
article we said plajnly that we had
inquired of a few pf ojir leading
citizens as to the truth of the mat-
ter and were told that there was no
sue destitution AVp also ttnted
that we were reliably infi nped that
it there were any instance wheie
anyone is starving it is their own
fault ao their needs would be tup
plied by the Ladies Aid Society

council if mnd known Vo can

proprietor of The Ukrald to an

unable tu du much tjiiaucialv but
he has given his mite and hu is
willing to do anything elfa through
the columns of his paper or by his
own pergonal cffurts to assist hi
feliow citizens in the gonrt work
TilECoaiiiopuUtan has repeatedly
referred to the editor of The Oer
ald as an innocent young man
and seems to think the fact that
our paper is a new veqture in the
journalistic world is sufficient cause
to uxcitti its contempt As the edi-
tor of The Herald has been en
gaged in the newspaper business
for about ton years tjd as we feel
sorry for the really new editor of
The Cosmopolitan lately promoted
from the position of country school-
master and Texas ranger to the
dignity of editing a paper we will
not be too hard on the yotu > g man-
Age and experience may teach him
that a fresh editor stepping into
the shoes of an old one does not
always attain there by the prcstgc
which his predecessor had earned
among newspaper

What is believed to be tho largest
aerolite ever known to have fallen is ly
ing in the Caspian sea a short dis-
tance from the peninsula of Apsheron
The aerolite made a terrific noise as it
rushed through the air with incredible
speed and the whito hot mass made a-
light that illuminated the country and
sea about for a great distance Those
who sa y it were were struck dumb with
consternation When it struck the
water immense clouds of steam arose
and the hissing could be heard for a
great distance Hu e masses of water
were thrown upward and t e sight t < i

projects twelve feet above the water
and save for its fuicd black crust which
gives it the appearance of having been

ing one f the usual rocky fovnaitionn
met with along tho eoas Scientist
are deeply interested in the phenomenon
and a number of them are making
preparations to visit the peimiMihi to
examine the aerolite Cable Letter

six whole counties are overrun by mice
rats of a smaller growth In two conn
ties alone they have virtually taken pos-
session of 90000 acres and it has been
proposed that the affected ground be
burned lest the vermin move ui > on the
