To-day 1 set ia a cer-##*t ob tha

wicked lady.

Few people have a correct idea of
the magnitude of Texas. Us bound
aries enclose an area of 274,.156
square miles, or 176,087,840 sores.
An idea of ita extent may beat l>e
formed, perhaps, Jby eompairing it
with other countries. For instance,
it has 34,000 square miles of area
more than the Austrian Empire,
62,000 mors than the German Em
pire, about 70,000 more than France,
is nearly as large at Sweden and
Nerway together, and twice the eise
of Great Itritain and Ireland. Com
ing to this side of the Atlantio, the
oocuparwon ia no Ism startling.
The area of all the Eastern and Mid
dle Stataa ineluding Maryland and
Delaware, is 100,000 sqnare miles
lam than Texas. U ie six times aa
large as New York, seven times as
large a Ohio, four times aa large aa
all Nsw England. The area of Ohio,
Indiana,. Illinois, Wisconsin and
Michigan, taken together, falls short
•f that of Taxes by some 40,000
sqqprs miles, or ahntber .Htat* as
large as Ohio. If you orosa the Mis
