Seuator McLaurin's letter, in which he announces his inteution not to enter the primary the coming summer, waS no surprise. It had become evident even to his warmest friends, that he stood no chance of election, and that the only sensible course for him to pur sue would be to withdraw from the race. Since he has withdrawn, if any additional oaths are to be required oi candidates now is the time to take such action. With MeLiurin in the race, il any oaths had been prescribed which hE could not take, it would have savored strongly of persecution sand would have made him friends throughout thE State and strengthened his movemeni as Dothing else could. With him oui of the race, however, the cry cannol be raised that it is persecution of an3 one man, and if it is necessary to throw any additional safeguards around thE primary now is the time to do so. Near London, England, on Monda5 of this week died one of the famou American men of Letters, Bret Harte. Sixty-three years ago he was born ir Albany, N. Y. His family emigrated to California when he was fifteen years old, and after a few years experiencE as a miner in the mining camps of Cali fornia, and a short experience as a ty pE setter he began his literary career, by founding the Californian. His fame a an author though, was first established when he became editor of the Overland dMonthly, the famous Pacific coast lit erary magazine. Here first appeared those thrilling tales,of life in the wes era mining camps: "The Luck o Roaring Camp," and "The Outcasts 01 Poker Flat." To this peiod also be longsthe humorous poem 'TheHeather Chinee," possibly the most widel3 known of all his literary productions, Some of the better known of his othei productions are: "Tales of the Argo nants," "Two Men of Sandy Bar" and "The Twins of Table Mountain." ADMIRAL SAMPSON. Speaking of the death of Admira] Sampson, which occurred on Tuesda3 afternoon, the Atlanta Journal says: IThe death of Admiral Sampson was a release from long suffering, mencal and physical, the close of a very notable career. The latter years of his life were sad dened by strife and clamor that were the results of the injudicious zeal oi friends who meant weil, but who placed him in an unfortunate position No'w that h" bas passed to peace, even his enemies wilt remember the illustrious service of this man to his country, and impartial posterity will lay upon his tomb the honors he so richly deserves. It may be said without injustice tc any one that the reconstruction of the United States navy and the remarka ble advance of our government in uaval science in the list ten years are due more to William T. Sampson than any other man connected with that service. It is well within the fact to declare that as an authority on naval construc tion and as a naval tactician he had nc peer, in this country at least. He did a work for the advancement of our navy, for its adaption to modern standards and in thbe lay ing of plans for Its present strength and excellence which will have won for him a high place in the estimation of all who know~ the record and entitle him to the last ing gratitude of his fellew-eountrymen. The above is true. Sampson's friends were his worst enemies and did more than all else to keep him from appear lng in a true light before the American people. But in a few years, when the petty strifes and controversies with which the close of his life was filled are forgotten, then will the work which be did in the upbuilding of the Ameri can navy and the part which he played in the Spanish-American war be appre ciated by his people. LECtURE BY COL. HIOBBS. Becital of Incidents in an AdventurOns Life to Studenis at Patton Seminary at Dallas, TeKa.. The young ladies of Patton Semiaary at Oak Cliff yesterday morning listened to an address by Col. John F. Hobbs, of New York City. President Laird oZ the seminary is a collegemate of the Colonel's. He called upon the latter, and finally induced him to give the young ladies of the seminary a talk. Col. Hobbs is a delegate to the con vention of the Interstate Cottonseed Crushers' Association, now in session in Dallas. His subject was "TIlle Fe-male Mind and Character as Factors in the World's Affairs." The speaker held his audience at will in moods of laugh ter, thought and other humors during the entire time of his lecture. The in cidents recounted were those requested of him by Mr. Laird. They included some of Col. Hobbs' adventures as an explorer, his shipwrecks and escapes, and some of the extraordinany circum stauces which gave directioD and gin ger to his life of adventure in the treacherons wilds of the universe. He paid a high tribute to American womanhood, and, expressed his surprise at the extreme culture and air of re finement in this young but robust city of .Texas. After the adjournment of the crushers' convention Col Hobbs rejoins his family in South Catrolina, and after seeing the Charleston Expo sition will return to his field of labor in New York City. He is delighted with Texas.-Dallas News, April 30. It is easy for the light-headed to be ig ht-hearted. It matters not wha? your ancestors were -it is what you ar~ that ceu sts.
