ONE of the society events of the week
was the marriage, on Christmas after
noon, OF Matte L., youngest daughte,
of Hon. Geo. Brown, of Woodman, to
Albert, Ketterer, of Werley. A number
of the friends of the family were invited
to witness the marriage ceremony,
which was performed by Rev. d. G.

father. After the ceremony the guests
partook of an elegant supper and passed
a most enjoyable evening with the fam

COLORADO, TEX Sept. 27.-Colora-
do City might be said now to be under
going q rest spell. Just at this time
there is great complaint of the times.
But from the travelling men that visit
our city regularly learn that Colora-
do Is the liveliest town west of Fort
Worth.
The trains on the Texas & Pacific
railroad are making their regular
schedule time, but still they are not
crowded with immigrants seeking
homes in our Western world.
THE GAZETTE comes every evening
on the bOb-tail, and stands at the head
OF all the daily papers here, not except
ing the Daily Clipper.
The book store at the post-ofiice will
be under new management in few
days. MIR. st. Clair Of the present
firm tells me he will retire.
Our merchants that have been East
purchasing fall and winter goods are
returning one by one, and say that
they have bought largely, and that
goods will be sold in Colorado cheaper
than ever before.
Mr.. Michel, who had his grocery
and bakery burned on Main street in
the last fire, says that he has received
his insurance and will at an early day
rebuild and open the same business.
Stockmen from ell directions are In

mention of Col. NJ. u. Sweisson,

The heavy rains that are looked for
are certainly approaching. The Their

will be the boss grazing region this

TOO MUCH CLOTH.
The Augusta, Ca, Mill Men Say That
is the Situation.
The overprodnction of Goods and What
II Has Led To.
Augusta Ga.l Chronicle.

In the present unsettled condition
of the milling interests in Augusta, the
following article in yesterdays Consti-
tuition on the subject will prove of in
terest to our citizens and factory Off
cials, and the views of the Atlanta
president may be deemed worthy of
careful considerations;
''There is every indication that in a
short time another meeting OF cotton
mill men will be held, to take action
in reference TO the present depressed
state Of the market. A movement
has Just been started which looks to
that end, and it is meeting with con-
siderable favor. 1t Is clear that the
cotton mills must do something to
carry them safely over the shoals
through which they are now passing,
and they have great need
for n cotton factory statesman
TO rise up in their midst. 1t will be
remembered that in March last meet.
ing of mill presidents was held in
Augusta, and an effort was made to
agree on some plan looking to the
stoppage of the mills on account of the
over-production that then existed.
Many mills have been running on
short time, and none of them have
made money during the summer. but
the over-pTOduction continued and the
situation now, so the mill men say, is
unchanged.
A Constitution man had very
INTERESTING TALK
| yesterday with prominent mill pres.
ident, who has made deep study of
the matter and gives some very valu-
able information on the subject. Said
he:
"You see the things have not turned
out as we thought they would and we
are fearful of the future. When we
held the convention last spring, we
all hoped for better sales. But goods
that sold then at six and seven cents
are now worth only five tosix cents
q yard. We do not know how tue
prices will go in the future. Goods
may continue TO go down. Afillers
are afraid to buy cotton lest the mar
ket drops before they can work off the
stock. 1t Is sort of speculation that
legitimate business will not stand"
'But suppose cotton drops soon?p
II don't see how that can do the
mills any good as long as overproduc-
ton stares us in the face. The secret
of the whole thing is we have got
10 slack up and let the demand over
take us. That is the object of the
meeting that We are now discussing.
We have got TO arrange some
plan by which we can let up on CLOTH
making for awhile. The factories
must arrange and agree not to run on
more than half or two-thirds time
until in the winter somewhere about
February. You see the supply OF
goods Is abnormal and the solution OF
the trouble II to
RUN ALONG on SHORT TINE
until the market Is not 80 overstockea
III We run on full time and 90
on piling up goods, what's
to come Of the market? we
thought the bottom was out when
goods were cent higher than thew
are now, and still they came down. y

At the Worlds Exposition.

A Savannah Times correspondent,
writing from Atlanta, thus describes u
curiosity: lone OF the features of the
Georgia exhibit AZ New Orleans will
be genuine maidstone, which has
done service for over half century. 1t
Is now In the custody OF Col. Fa tty
Harris of this city. 1t weighs
about pound, is black
in color and looks very much like a
pound weight. although IL is larger.
1t Il famous stone in the Cherokee
region of Georgia, and Is an heirloom
In a well-known family. Sixty years
ago the grand sire of Allred's killed a
buck and from his paunch took the
stone. II has effected cures in over
hundred snake bites and has
been used with unvarying success
in all sorts of cases of poisoning.
Col. Harris says that few weeks ago
a mad dog bit number of animals
and one man in Pickens county. The
stone was applied to the mans wound
and absorbed the poison In the usual
way, while the ANIMALS were not treat
ed with 1t, and every one of them died
with most violent symptoms of hydro
phobla. The history OF the stone Is to
be written and pla ed In the cabinet
along with 1t at the exposition, and
accompanying 1t also win be the GER
titicates of physicians who have ap.
piled il with success in cases OF
snake poisoning and mad dog
bites. A discussion of mad
s,ones was begun In Georgia two
years ago, at which time il was gem
orally laughed at by the doctors, but
so many stones have been located aud
80 much reliable testimony secured
that a great many people announce
their faith In the virtues of the stones
aud turn to them with as much conf
dence as the children Of Israel looked
up to the brazen serpent in the will
derness.

Stock Of all kinds Is looking well, as
we have had good rains throughout
the county, especially along the Pecos
river. Several stockmen are
anticipating shipping of beeves from
this point. Some say they are waiting
on the railroad to build stock pen at
this place, which is badly needed, as
stockmen on this side of the river have
to swim their beeves across the Pecos
river and put them en- the cars run
down, which makes them unfit for

Religious Services by all Denomina
tions-The Water Works
Question.
The Best Day in the Week for :he Saloons
and Gambling Houses Chit Chat.

Special TO the Gazette.
WACO, Ten, Sept. 2S,-There has
been no lack of religious demonstra-
lions and variety thereof in this city
to-day. Three distinct Hebrew con-
gregations held services tonight, cell
ebrating their Day of Atonement, in
three different houses: the Campbell
iterevivalist, Weeping Joe" Harding,
preached three sermons and baptized
several persons; half dozen South
ern Methodist preachers, headed by
the noted Georgia revivalist, Sam
Jones, Imported for the occasion), In
augurated big revival in the Meth
odist church; Father Badelow, the
Catholic priest, celebrated his first
mass after an absence of eight months
in Europe and the Holy Land;
the Salvation army shouted and sang
ON the street corners, and quiet ser
vices were held at half dozen other
white churches and by some eight or
ten darby congregations. A stranger
would have supposed he was in the
most religious town on the continent.
Meanwhile the saloons and gambling
houses did their usual Sunday
business, 1t being the best day in the
week for them.
1t Is semi-oflicially stated that the
aldermRnic committee which has been
investigating the efficiency of the
water compRny's service will present a
report this week strongly condemna-
tory of the system, as being inefficient
will open the question of fire insurance
rates again. Ii is also understood that
at the city council meeting next
Thursday night the mayor will send
in an important special message on the
water-works question.
The drouth, which has lasted here
since June 10, Is thoroughly broken
now, several heavy rains having fallen.
This county is literally parched
though, and an immense rainfall will
be required to soak the earth aud afford
stock water.
The "0nly Woman's Heart COM
pany appears TO be booked for both the
opeTa-houses, here on the same night,
October 8. There will be music In the
air when the company comes.
Politics are almost stagnant. The
Blaine and Logan club Is virtually
dead-killed by the white Republicans
who couldn't stomach the "niggers''
in the organization.
Another effort is TO be made to gel
up the required subscription for the
Waco, Palestine & Shreveport railroad
Cthe Texas Midland). The movement
has rather languished of late.
Business men are also asked to make
up loan or fund of $500 for the
Waco Examiner, to put that paper OF
self-supporting basis.
The Ladies' Exposition society Is Sc
curing many interesting articles fol
the approaching art loan exhibition.
Capt. Hutchinson Is doing better to-
day. His marriage yesterday appears
to have stimulated him.
The Waco White Elephant will be
opened this week.

mo. The factories are running
solely to keep their operatives to-
gether and for their benefit. There is
$3.50 200 invested in my mill, and 1t is
practically idle. 1t earns no divl.
dends. The operatives can work
and make half pay, and got along
some way-better than no way-and
when times change we can all make
money; but this ia the off year, the
abnormal year, and we have all got to
bear it. In the North and East there
are millions of spindies idle awaiting
the change that will come about as
soon rs the supply and demand even
up. In the South the mills have run
on short time rather than close.n
Twill the operatives agree to run on
short time until February ?n
sit matters little with the mills. IL
Is only humanity and desire to keep
the operatives together that prompts
us to run on even short time. A half
loaf is better than no bread, but il the
operatives do not want a half loaf in
such times 1t would make little differ
ence 10 the factories.p
.'Don'tit cost something to start a
mill when it stops?n
"Yes, that is true. II Is a bad idea
for mill to get its operatives scattered.
IT COSTS MONEY
TO get them together, and that is what
l mean when | say we ought to try to
keep them together. The thing is
this: We put in the capital and get
nothing for it, and the operatives try
to I've on half time. 1t is an even
thing. Cloth now will hardly sell for
the cost of raw material"
1T Is serious situation
Indeed 1t is. Take, for instance,
Augusta. A third of her population
depends on the factories. If they sus-
pend what will the operatives do?p
Ten thousand people will be without
means OF support. The factories must
not stop. The mill men must meet,
agree on the remedy and abide by the
agreement.
