LAMPAsAs, September 1.-THE
democratic barbecue to-day was a
grand success. The attendance is
estimated to be 5000, who enjoyed an
old-time barbecue. While the arrange
ments were under the auspices of the
democracy, all our citizens donated
literally to its success. To Col. Henry
EXall, the manager, great credit is
due. who has been untiring in his
labor in promoting the enterprise.
Governor Ireland, accompanied by
United States Senator Richard Coke
andI Major Walsh, arrived on the 5
o'clock train last evening, and were
met by the committee and Lampasas
Rifles, and escorted to their rooms.
Maj. j d. Sayers and Judge J.B. Rector
arrived later by private conveyance.

audience by Col. Exall. The judge
occupied an hour discussing national

AN EXPLOSION.
THE CAPITAL ICE FACTORY A
TOTAL WRECK SAORI-
FIOED BY STEAM.
Heavy Loss to the ProprietOrs,
and a Thriving Business
Greatly Crippled

! Last night at about I1:35 the citi-
ZenS of Austin were rudely awakened
from their slumber, or if not yet re-
tired were equally startled by loud
report, followed by rafting sound as
OF falling stones, that lasted for some
seconds. From the sound it was de-
termined that the catastrophe what
ever it was, had happened in the first
ward, near the foot of the Avenue,
and scores of min and boys and few
women were soon seen rushing fran
tically in that direction. The fire
companies were notifed'and they, as
usual, responded nobly and quickly.
They were somewhat nonplussed,
however, when they found no fire in
the vicinity, and were about to return
when they were informed thar their
services were called into requisi-
ton to prevent fire and
not to put one out. 1t was
explained to the boys that the boiler
of the Capital ice factory had eXplod-
ed, and that, fearing other damage,
there being considerable debris on fire,
the companies had been called out.
This trouble was soon disposed of by
the gallant firemen, and then COM
menced an inspection OF the damage
done. The engine room IL seems,
fIom all that could be CLEANED last
night, was superintendent by negro,
who, at the time of the explosion, was
back of the boiler attending to other |
business. The whole force of the eX-
plosion seems to have been from the |
rear of the boiler to the front, and in |
this way we can only account for the |
fact that no one was injured. Had
the explosion been in the opposite di-
rection, several lives must necessarily
have been lost. Not only so, but the
building would have been entirely de-
stroyed. AS it is, the boiler, which
was a steel one, recently purchased at
a cost of hundreds of dollars, together
with the boiler masonry and a part
of the building and adjacent ma
chinery were totally destroyed.
In the excited state of mind in
which all were found last night but
little could be learned as to the cause,
but it was the general opinion that
and thorough ignor-
ance on the part of those left in charge
was the principal cause. The mana
gers, however, will sift this matter to
,he bottom and settle it, at least, to
heir satisfaction.
THE STATESMAN sympathiZes with
he company in its loss, which is
several thousand dollars, and would
advise the citizens Of Austin and sur
towns to keep cool, notwith- {
standing large supply of ice will be ]
tut off for several days. Mr.. John
Mattingly, the gentlemanly manager ;
If the factory, is now at Sulphur !
springs, fifteen miles from town, for 6
lis health. A messenger has been :
ent to him.

race between Savers and Rector.
1t must be remembered that
in Bastrop county there is a strong
element truly independent-an ele-
ment that votes for favorites almost
without regard to party. This vote is
usually cast for the national demo-
cratic ticket and for Wash Jones, and
it will be cast for Joseph d. Savers
for congress.
In the race for governor Jones will
carry this county by about 1900
majority. There is no getting around
it. We must concede this majority to
Jones in his home county. Ireland
men are scarce In these parts. Men
who call themselves democrats (and
would be insulted if you denominated
them anything else) are found work
ing as hard for Jones as they work for
Sayers. There are 600 to 800 of this
class of voters in Bastrop county.
The German vote is about $50. Sayers
will get this vote soliC, excepting a
limited number of postmasters and
their henchmen. So, to all who are
in doubt about Savers carrying this
county, we say come and see for your
selves and be convinced. In the race
for representative in the legislature
the only supposition is that R. A.
Kerr, colored, eX-member from
county, will have a walk-over,
provided he consents to run.

Special Telegram to The Statesman.
GEORGETOWN, September 12.-On
yesterday tramp, carrying valise,
a fiddle, and followed by small dog,
was arrested by the citizens of the
Buttercup neighborhood, in this coun-

ranted liberties in the house of James
Washington, colored. Washington
was absent from home, and no one at
the house except an old negro woman

manded money, and told the old wo.
man that if she had any money she
would save trouble by giving it to
him. Not getting money by such
means, he searched for himself, but
did not find any. Washington return
ing about dark. with the assistance of
Mr.. J. M. Glenn, his neighbor, arrested
the man and the case is now being in
vestigated.
The tramp IS a man about five feet
ten or eleven inches high, red or sandy
hair and whiskers, about 80 years old;
says he is brick-layer by trade and
was on his way to Burnett. He was
carrying two pistols. 1t is believed
he is wanted somewhere else.
