bread good, and the people | saw sppear.

English and Germans, were especially

of aboriginal Indians has been discov-
cred near the headwaters of the Brazos
who have been so quiet that even their
existance has heretofore been unknown
TO the government or any of the whites.
They have never asked for ponies or
blankets. Their tribe is called the "Pla

have been living with the Comanches,
aud have behaved like little men. Very
recently. however. they have notified
Col Hatch that they desire to go to

might select to visit the prison to inquire into
sanity OF the man. DR.. Chopin selected Drs
O. Beard and J. Fl. Castallanos to accompany
him.
This commission visi ted the prison during the
afternoon, and after q lengthy examination, pro-
nounced the man compos nlentis and in his right
mind. Dr. Castelanos oonversed with him in
Spanish, and he answered readily any inquiry put
to him. except when it related to the crime he
had committed. About this he WAS very reticent
and showed marked disinclination to revert to
the subject.
The doctors reported the result of their ex.
animation to the Governor.

STATE DEBTORS.

The Penitentiary Lessees Owe ST., 900
which the Attorney General VIII En-.
deayOr to Collect.
From that which can be learned at the State
House it seems that the defaulting tax collectors
and parish school treasurers are not the only
ones who owe the State money.
Act Sc of 1870, passed by Republican Legis-
lature. provided that the State Penitentiary
should be leased and section of that act pro.
vided that the lessees should pay to the State
various sums per year, the amount increasing
$1,000 per year, and the lease was extended for
twenty-one years.
The Treasurer's books show that payments were
made up to and including the year 1878, but
nothing since. and accordingly tho lessees owe
the State $4,000 In hard cash. which the Attor-
ney General will, no doubt, bring action to re-
cover as soon as he gets through with the accu-
mulation of business with which he is now bur-
dened.

A KNOTTY QUESTION.

The fact that quite q number Of the notaries
public appointed by Gov. Nichols were confirmed
by the Senate has led to complications that must
ultimately result in re-appointment.of all those
not confirmed.
OF course when reappointed all must be re-
commissioned, and then the question arises as to
the legality Of the previous notarisl acts of those
not confirmed. Some Of the State officials in dis
cusslng the question seem to think that the only
means by which such acts can be legalized is by
subsequent act Of the Legislature, though Gov.
Nichols thinks differently.
The question is knotty one at the best, and
will doubtless be referred to the Attorney Gen.
eral for his opinion.
