1t seems Father hard Just as the old
year is heaFing its expiring..gasp and
the new one comes stealing in to put a
man III Jail and shut him out from
Gods ALPHABETICALLY such beau
tltul sunlight as we are now having.
But when men violate the majesty OF
the law they must expect to suffer the
consequences. Among those who
were unfortunate enough to get be
hind the bars yesterday was one John
w. Prince, who was arrested on a
capias from Lee county. Prince is
charged with dispOsing of mortgaged
property. The sheriff of Lee county
has telcgraphcd that he will
come up at once and transfer
Prince to the jail there.
Another who got himself into trouble
was railroad hard whose name we
could not learn. He was Jailed on an
affidavit of woman called "Big
Casino" who alleges that he robbed
her of six dollars. 1t appears that
the man wandered into haunts where
ne should not be. and Casino" en-
gagged his company, evidently expect
ing to fleece him, but as things now
look, taking her story for true, he
turned the tables on her. The bitter
est part, however, is yet to come, for
nc may have trouble getting out of
The scrape.

a sad lot of faces were seen at the
theatre comique yesterday, for as a New

Castor, the night before skipped out
with all the proceeds, and left nine ac-
tors and actresses, besides his brothers,
without cent. Whittier he hal fled no
one knows, but the superstition
is that he took the Central south
bound train, and is ere now far
away. Vile was at the theater up to s
O'Clock, selling tickets, and received a
considerable amount of money from that
source. Besides that, he had the entire
earnings Of the house, bar, wine room
and other means of revenue for a week
past, which amounted to several hun
bred dollars. He was in arrears to his
employees from $50 to 500 each, accord
ing to their statements, and had more
or less accounts around town. The mem
bers of the company are left without any
means whatever and Yesterday they an

Hazel kirI<c"soujuc

The great play of Hazel Kirke " is
to be presented here by the Madison
Square theatre, n. Y, within Il few
weeks. This play has a remarkable his
tory. 1t was first performed at the Mad
ison Square theatre three years ago and
ran four hundred and eighty-six nights
It was then transferred to the country,
and now, three years after its first per
Torrance, is still being played through
the country by the Madison Square the
atre. 1t has now been presented nearly
one thousand five hundred times. 1t is
a remarkable play and the fearful and
delighted audiences who witness it over
and over again are the best evidence of
its popularity, while the reputation of
the theatre is sufficient guarantee of
the character of the company.

The CamD.Mec1iu. Trouble

We publish to-day a somewhat
elaborate statement with reference to
the recent notorious camp-meetlng
case now pending before the courts
for adjudication. With reference to
the merits of the case, without enter
ing into details, it is enough to say
that whether running a camp-meeting
or a dance-house men have the right
to run it to suit themselves, to estab-
lish their own rules, and haN ing an
nounced those rules, to enforce them
upon all who attend. In this
view of the case, taken as it is, from
q purely secular and business stand
point, we eanno I but regard the pros
ecutiOu of the committee removing
the young man, Massey, on his viola
ton of a well known rule ofthe camp
meeting, which he was attending, as u
great hardship, and, in fact, an out
rage upon the commonest rights OF
citizenship. The case, we trust, will
be speedily and finally dismissed.

IRELAND's CHAMPION.
An Effort Beng Made 10 Undue
Hill TO Come 10 Waco.

We have on other occasions referred
to the visit of Hon. t. NJ. Healy,
member of parliament. to this coun-
try, and more particularly to his tour
through Texas. The distinguished
gentleman is now i'll the state and last
night he addressed the people of Gal
weston. His programme is to
visit three other cities in
the state, viz: Houston, Dallas
and Fort Worth. AS soon as it was
learned that he would not come to
Waco a few who desired to hear the
statesman and champion of Irish
rights, and learn something more OF
the oppression, not only of the Irish,
but the Jew, concluded to make an
effort to get him to come here. At 8
p. m. yesterday the following dispatch
was sent;
WACO, December 31.-Hon. T. NJ.
Healy, NJ. P: Could you be induced
to come to Waco, and on what terms.
j. E. EAGAN.
The reply was as follows:
j. E. EGAN, Waco: NV
terms free. Proceeds to 90 to
benefit OF the land league. What
amount can De raised!
L. NJ. HEALY.
Mr.. Egan replied to this dispatch
but the exact tenor of it we do nor
know. We are, however, permitted
to say that he was assured a respeeta-
BILE amount, and asked to name the
night positively that he would be |
here If at all. Up to a late hour last
night Mr.. Healy had not replied, but
the wires were so burdened
That no doubt the message
could not be got through. The gen
lieman is an orator, scholar and de-
lender of the rights and liberties of
The oppressed and down-trodden. not
only OF his land and race, but of sill
others, and we are sure the American
people everywhere will be glad to
welcome him. Aside from the noble
;susc III which he is working, allevla-
ion of distress and liberation OF cou-
cience and self, it would be a rare
reat TO get man who has ON his
way into parliament to come before
Is and address our people on the
,reat topic that he handles so ably.
