New York, Aug. 2. There sailed from this port for Galveston today a steamer, the departure of which means much to the future welfare and commercial prosperity of the plucky Texas metropolis, which refused to consider itself ruined by the terrible storm which cost so many lives and so many millions in money. The steamer is one of the star vessels of the Morgan line and Its sailing Inaug urates the change whereby the South ern Pacific trans-continental business heretofore handled at New Orleans, is transferred to Galveston. This change was first suggested by Collls P. Huntington, who held that all New York freight destined for Texas and California should be taken by steamer to Galveston instead of to New Orleans. This would save some 350 miles of rail transportation on a part of the railroad between New Orleans and Houston, which is already overcrowded with business. The city of Galveston gave the com pany frontage on the bay and the work of erecting the wharves and warehouses was begun, b.ut it was called to a sudden halt by the big storm, which destroyed the work, then nearing completion. This delay ed the change more than a year. The Southern Pacific, however, did not abandon its plan, but went on with the work. Of the fleet of 12 steamers here tofore employed in the New Oileans service, only four will continue to ply between New York and that city. The business transferred to Galves ton will amount to some $30,000,000 a year In imports and $20,000,000 a year in exports. THE BUBONIC PLAGUE. Three Deaths From Dread Disease In July at 'Frisco.

Tho people govern here. They should be educated with a view to their development along tho lines 'of their life work, whatever that may be. What can be done for our producers that they may live on higher levels of comfort and happiness, that they may help the weary hand with a bet ter trained head, and have more time to devote to intellectual, moral and spiritual life, is the previous question which the educators of the great pro ducing states of our country are call ed upon to answer. The four-year college course does not begin soon enough, nor continue long enough to meet the requirements of our day In this regard. Teachers aro wanted In primary and secondary schools and post-graduate work In universities.
