concluded that it must be a misprint
Again I found this: You cannot bruse a
shrub or flower without pro
ducing alcohol, for everything in
nature contains alcohol The man
who made that speech must know better
than that if he has any sense at all. I will
risk my reputation in saying that there is
no alcohol in anything natural until it is
put in. You may find it in man,
It it must be put there first. 1t is a
poison; is that gift of God to man? To
stupefy him, to throw him out of his nor
NAL state, is that gift of God? Prohibi-
bition is law. License is no law. Why
do we not license every other wrong as
well as intemperance?
No license law was ever enforced because
it is an attempt to regulate that which is
of itself irregular. 1t is a we'll known fact
that children will be like their parents; the
children of Incorporate parents will be
Incorporate, because the love of drink
will be born in them, and if they
can get it, they Will. Has any legislature
the right to say that anything that pro
duces such effects on the present genera
tion and generations to come, shall be
licensed?
The government is made of fami-
lies, and what affects The family
must affect the government,
all the nations that have disappeared
from the face of the earth. Greece, Rome,
Ethiopia, and many others, owe their fall

Ger from the savna cauSa have sean man
in the halls of congress, voting on public
matters, who were too drunk to know how
to vote. And is not the nation whose laws
are made by drunkards i'll danger? This
thing cannot De regulated. When fire
breaks out We do not try to regulate it, we
put it out. Mr.. Cole says that you can not
enforce prohibition. We know that you
can not enforce license and if one can not
be enforced any more than the other, it is
better for the credit of the state that the
best law should appear on the statute
books" At the conclusion of
the address the following resolution was
read by DR.. Emery and unanimously
adopted, after which the meeting ad
journed:
Resolved, That the members of the Min

ALIVE CROWD.

The Reform Club MeetiHD Yesterday An
Unusually LireIy One-A Resolution of
Thanks.
Judging from the attendance at the
weekly meeting of the Reform club, the
temperance question must be growing in
interest and popularity. Every Sunday
witnesses larger crowd at the hall than
any preceding day, and yesterday the
room proved by lar too small to accom-
mediate the audience which overlooked into
the lobby and half-way down the stairs.
After the opening exercises, Chaplain
Satterlee rose and said, sit is assumed by
many of our enemies that when we pro-

WOULDN'T FIGHT.

Judge Gedney, of New York, Challenged to
Lover-FoOd for the Gossips.
New YORK, Feb. ia rumor that Chief
Justice Gedney has been challenged to
fight a duel is at present the subject of
much discussion i'll Masonic and political
circles, and rumor hath it that the Justice
declined the invitation to shed the hood
of fellow man. The followingis the story
of the occurrence: Immediately preceding
and resulting in the alleged challenge on
the night of the ball of Palestine com
mandery, Knights Templars, Justice Ged-
ney, who is the judge advocate of the
commandery, stood in the foyer of the
Academy of Music with company of
friends about him when a pretty
lady and a gentleman passed.
The young couple had evidently
had a tiff about something, for they were
red and he was upbraiding her in Jealous
terms. The youth and beauty of the lady
and the apparent jealousy of her com
panion caused the gentlemen to smile as
the couple moved through the lobby.
Turning angrily to Justice Gedney, the
young man asked:
did you laugh at me, sir?"
''No, sir,'' said the justice cody, Il
smiled at your situation
Here is my card. sir, expect satisfae-
ton for this" said the young man.
Il haven't a card with me-" said the jus
tice. Il have already an engagement to
fight man in another city, and as it is
against the penal code to make another
engagement to fight until the first chal-
lenge is settled, cannot now give you any
reason to hope that 1 will crafty you.
Au revoir." The young lady led her
escort AWAY. smiling amid her tears.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 1S.-Loo Hing and
Hi Sang Toon, two Cinnamon of more than
usual muscular development, fought a
prize fight in this city last night. 1t was
said to. be the first fight between China
men that ever occurred in this country
Some months ago Hi came from San Fran
cisco with the reputation of being bad
man. He soon became involved in quar-
rel with Loo, who Is washer in
Yet lungs laundry, on Spring
Garden street, few doors below
Eighth, and knocked Loo down with a red
hot iron. He was arrested and taken be-
fore magistrate Lennon, who subsequently
released him. Loo. determined on re-
venge, while delivering linen at Clark's
Olympic garden, conceived the idea of
becoming 1t pu9i!ist III order to punish
Hi. he took lessons of Red" Moony and
became quite skiIIful. Dave Rely heard
of the affair and tried TO pursuade Hi to
take lessons also, but Hi refused. Hi
promised to meet Loo, however, at any
time and pIacs. The fight took place in
a second story back room. on Girard
avenue, corner Tenth street About forty
persons, including seven Cinnamon, were
present. AS there we're no ropes, two men
armed with barrel slaves kept the crowd
back. AS Loo danced into the center of
tbs room he said, pointing to the little
curl of pig tails on his head "No care glab
hele." Referring to blows below the belt
he said: Can bang baly top side plenty
No carry bang bang bottom SIDE" ''No care
and clutch, alice time Nand slaigh siiup
sabe," responded Hi in an affirmative
tone, and without the formality of
shaking hands Loo put up
his arms in the most approved fashion.
He awkwardly initiated Loo's position,
and waited to see what the latter would do
next. Loo forced the fighting in scientific
style, while Hi depended on headstrong
rushes and hard blows. Eleven rounds
were fought in thirty minutes, both men
being badly cut. In the last round Hi
pounded Loo on the top of the head SO
that Loo was knocked out completely, and
was carried home on stretcher. There
were no arrests

The Rarity of Ckristtan Chsrity.

Josh Billings thinks the charity of this
world a conundrum, and he gives it up.
One cold, snowy afternoon this winter, he
saw shiny clad man trying to sell 4
couple of lead p.neils at the foot of the
stairs Of an elevated rsilwsy station, i0-
ploring each passer-5y to purchase, as he
was starving, Saysn pRsSsd without buy
ing; Josh was eighth, and he boughs
them and passed CT to The Fifth Avenus
hotel. Soon. having a. strand a5 the Gil
sey house, he thought ks vouid try his luck
selling pencils on the way. He took the
two he had bought, pulled his coat-collAr
up and his hat-brim down, and set out in
the dark. AtTwsnty- fourth street he stop
ped q benevolent looking pedestrian with:
'''Please buy ny two pencils for ten cents
apiece; sm starving; I hava had nothing
to cat for sventy four hours" etc. The
man pushed him aside, saying grufiy: Il
can get three for : q usrter down the street"
and wsnt on. Three others being appealed
TO did sbout the same. Atlast he slouched
into the Gilsey house. and tried the dodge
on man at the bar, Who tossed him 2
quarter saying Take that old man, /
don't want any panels" Then Josh re-
yealed himself and told tho story of his
experience. as 81 amateur pencil seller, to
the great amusement of the assembled
company.

Absurd and False.

F. A. Lister. Superintendent of the Mex
lean National Railroad, writes from Laredo,
August to the San Antonio Light, as fol-
lows:
The report telegraphed from Laredo and
printed in your paper of August 8, that our
trains in Mexico are constantly compelled to
stop and remove distractions composed OF
large piles of stone and wood from the track
il both absurd and false. 1t seems to me
that the fact that the Monterey division has
now been in operation nearly year with
trains running both by day and night, with
no accidents resulting in injury to single
passenger, should show that Mexico Is not
inhabited by such race Of blood-thirsty
villains as would seem to be the case, Judg-
ing from the paragraphs daily seen in the
papers of Texas.

REFERRING to the letter of Capt McLen-
don, of Dripping Springs, in another place
we must say we highly commend the spirit
and pluck which it manifests. The people
of Dripping Springs and Science Hall should
not think for moment of relaxing their II =
terest in their respective schools. While
high schools are important, primary and To-
cal schools are even more important. There
is properly no competition between them;
the former should be restricted to their ap,
propriate work, which is to advance the edu,
cation of pupils furnished by the primary
schools. And all history, whether sacred
or profane, shows that no one or two ndl
yiduals are essential to the progress of any
good work. Although Dripping Sprint
and Science Hall have lost their late yer!
efficient principals, others can no doubt Il
found to fill their places with at least rea
sonable success, and the schools each In II
appropriate sphere still go on prosperip'
and to prosper.

Austin.

We made hasty run to Austin on Mon
day-our first visit to that place for some
four or FIVE months, save passing through
ON our return from the Press Association at
Dallas.
New improvements were apparent at Kyle
and DuPre.
There has been some work in preparing
the foundations and approaches to the new
Capitol, but it il not very noticeable.
The University building is some distance
out, and we did not see it. Only about one
fourth of it is completed, yet it is proposed
to begin session of the institution at once.
We do not think it can prove very satisfac-
tory.
The Hancock building, next to the post
office which was burned last winter is to
be reconstructed. The walls still stand and
are mainly unimpaired.
We stopped as usual with mine host OF
the Carrollton House. 1t is eminently wor-
thy of the prosperity which now appears to
be attending it.
