AFTERNOON SESSION.

Speaker Gibson and quorum.
Mr.. Stout, by leave, introduced a
resolution inviting Congressman r,
@. Mills, now visiting Austin, to a
seat in the bar of the house. Adopted.
THE GENERAL LAND BILL,
The house resumed consideration
of the senate bill No. 1863, known as
the general land bill, to classify, sell
and lease the free school, university
and asylum lands. The bill which
was considered by sections was pub
lished, as passed by the senate, in the
STATESMAN of February 20.
Sec. 1. Amendment by Mr.. Labatt
to substitute cor" for land" so as to
read, "sold OF leased" instead of "sold
and leased" Lost
By Mr.. Frank: Strike out the words
"and leased"
After discussion pro and con by
Messrs. Mcdaniel, Frank and Wurz-
bach, Mr.. Cochran moved to postpone
the further consideration of the bill
till Tuesday.
Messrs. White, of Burleson, and
Ayres spoke in opposition to post
ponement, and Mr.. Cochran, satisfied
that the house wanted to go on with
the bill, withdrew his motion.
Mr.. Robinson, of Jack, argued in
favor of leasing. There had been a
time when it was difficult to lease
these lands to advantage, but as he
knew from his own experience as an
agent they had been leased to large
extent in several counties, and in his
county, at from 211 to 4 cents an
acre. Mr.. Robinson yielded to a
question at the request of the gentle
man from Fannin,
Mr.. Chenowith said he had just
heard of the death of Hon. A. l..
Adams, member of the house from
the county of Wood, and moved that
the house out of respect to the mem
DRY of the deceased, stand adjourned
till $50 a. m. Friday.
Mr.. Upton said it would be more
appropriate to adjourn over one full
day. Which amendment Mr.. G. ac-
cepted.
Mr.. Frymier offered further amend
ment, which was accepted, that the
speaker appoint committee to draft
suitable resolutions to present to the
house at $50 this morning. when the
funeral ceremonies will be arranged,
and a committee appointed to attend
the remains to the home of the de-
ceased.
The resolution, as amended by Mr..
Frymier, was adopted, and the house

Resolved, further, That a page of the

ably inscribed to the memory OF the de.
ceased, and copy of these resolutions
furnished his widow; and that, in
further token of respect, the house
stand adjourned till 3 D. m, and that

SO ago, with threatening rain clouds
and occasional sprinkles, had cleared

Jehu saw good fare to the mid
night train gone unless some ex-
pedient be found. When he drove
up to tho hotel and yelled for pas
sengers for the "eleven twenty" he
blocked the doorway with his form

commercial travellers grabbed their
grip sacks, pulled down their hats
and then disappeared into the hack

They saw stars when they struck the

that the Lewiston hackman will be
sorry for it some day but no one else

The price of the NEW ENGLAND BAK.

1t is self-evident that Baking Powders rep

70 dealers at less than the pure materials them
selves are worth, cannot be pure.
The large demand for NEW ENGLAND

Of some manufacturers and dealers. Finding

MISSIONARIES.

Here, young Teller! Amt it most
time you were going home?"
This brisk invitation was put by a
stalwart policeman to a young man
standing in earnest conversation at
2 o'clock in the morning in the Bow
cry with one of the flashily dressed
girls who roam about the great dem
ocratic highway of the metropolis at
all hours of the night. The officer
spoke bluntly but not unkindly. The
man addressed, who was tall and well
clad, arrested the frightened motion
of the girl by a gentle touch of the
hand, while he held out a printed
card to the policeman without reply.
The officer took it, bending serach-
ing glance on the two, and turned it
to the lamp-light. 1t bore the name
of Henry Gibbud, with the brief char
acterization, "All-night Missionary"
"All right, sirw said the policeman,
handing back the card promptly,
with a glance in which respect and
pity were curiously mingled. 81 wish
you luck. But she is a tough 'un,"
and went on his beat. The look of
defiance the girl shot after him
showed that she was hurt and BODIED
i'll for the present success of the mis-
sionary's effort to rouse her better
feelings. He saw it, and with a
friendly nod and handshake left her,
exacting of her the promise to see
him on the following night at meet
ing in McGlory's in Hester street.
The man who walked slowly up the
street, addressing here and there in
words of friendly inquiry and advice,
that were alike received with respect
full attention, groups of girls or young
men or solitary wanderers, was one
of the two missionaries who conduct
the Florence Night Mission in
Bleecker street. The other, Smith
N. Allen, who is known extensively
as "the lame peddler," was at that
hour prosecuting similar mission
work in other quarters of the city
where dens of gilded vice abound.
The work in which these two men are
engaged. is to a great extent novel
and unique; but, unpromising as the
field seemed, it has already borne
fruit that gives hope of an abundant
harvest.
1t is due, from the start, to the
restless and incorporating energy
of Mr.. Allen, who is recognized as
the head of the present mission.
Both missionaries are young men,
not yet turned thirty, and went into
the work together years ago for the
love of it, urged by earnest conviction.
Their labors were divided between
the docks and the vile dens of drunk
enness and infamy of Baxter street,
when the case of a girl, a wretched
creature, young in years but old in
vice from the lowest depths, fell
under the notice of MIR. Allen.
He made it his special charge to
rescue her from the street, and with
a logged persistence that drew upon
him almost the ridicule OF his cola
borer, he followed her about night
after night, brought her from the sa
looms out of the company of her
drunken associates into his meetings,
picked her from the gutter again and
again, until at last she surrendered
and consented to be taken by him to
the Magdalen Asylum. The girl is
now leading a Christian life. The
result was a revelation to both mis-
sionaries, and turned their efforts
into channel where'it has run since.
