terday issued the following modifica-
tion of the quarantine:
Notice is hereby given to the rail-

only passing through those states will j
be allowed to enter Texas, but for the

conning from any infected place will be

ters, salt, iron and Iron castings from
non-lnfected places in Ixjulsiana and !
Mississippi will be allowed to enter on
special permit from this office. Train

red as hertofore.
No persons from Louisiana or Mls-

from Washington Sunday, and that hi*,
visit there had no connection with any
effort to retain his regiment In service.
“I incidentally saw the secretary of
war.” said he, ''and was Informed that
if a majority of the regiment were de-
sirous dl being kept In the service,!
room would probably be made for
them. Several of the capt&nis In the
regiment hate informed me that a ma-!
Jority tff the men in their companies
do not desire to be mustered out. I
hare no petMmal knowledge of what Is
the sentiment of the*"men on the ques-
tion beyond the fact that many of them
have written me letters urging that
the regiment he retained. Many of
those who went off on furloughs have
reached the conclusion that tho army
is a better place for them than picking
4-eent cotton. A vote of the men will
bo taken at the proper time, and the
wishes of the majority will be respect- i
ed. I think that there Is but llttlaj
chance of the regiment being retained.” ;

his little boy, when about a block of
the railroad station he discovered that
a man was approaching him from be- ;
hind In a manner to create apprehen-

Galveston, Tex.. Oct. 25 —When the
war is over entirely Col. Garda of the
Cuban army, a brother of Gen. Calixto
Garcia,, is going to beat his sword in-
to a circular saw and saw wood. He
passed through Galveston about ten
days ago, en route to New Orleans,
where he goes to. meet, gentlemen
whom he hopes to enlist in a big lum-
ber enterprise In Cuba. His mission
was not then known. Col Garcia while
here stated that the records to much
of the land In Cuba, outside of the
province of Havana, had been destroy-
ed, and lands are now being Seized
right and left by the Cuban party.
There Is no end of "squatting" and
there will probably be lols of work |
for lawyers when peace is finally estab- j
Hshed and the legislative and judicial j
mills get to work—to say nothing of j
Col. Garcia's sawmill.

burned itself out. The mine is on th#

An anecdote of Gladstone at the
time of his greatest rivalry with Dis-
raeli Is told. At a dinner party ths
subject of Judaism cropped lip. "Ad-
mitted." said Gladstone, “that the He-
brews have given the world a philoso-
pher in Spinoza, musicians In Men-
delssohn and Meyerbeer, a poet In
Heine, the fact remains that they have
not produced a single statesman."
There was silence for a moment. Ev-
ery one knew, of course, that was a
direct allusion to Disraeli. Then on*
of tha company stepped Into th«
breach. Mr. Gladstone,” he said, “aa
a matter of fact, the Hebrews have pro-
duced a statesman, and one of the
greatest the world "“has seen.” Tha
fighting Instinct of Mr. Gladstone surg-
ed up at once. "May I ask, sir,” he
said, pointedly, "who was this Hebrew
statesman?” Every one, anticipating
a more than lively scene, waited la
tense expectation for the answer. 1%
came In the quietest of tones: ‘‘Moses,
Mr.” Every one smiled, and Mr. GlodU-
