roo MANY FoUYDLINGS.

An interesting field for speculation Is
presented by the observations of Lieut.
Stanton of the Chicago police. He has
made an appeal to the charitable ladies OF
| Chicago 10 suspend for time their
interest IN the babies of Central Africa
and devote themselves to the extension OF
accommodations for poor mothers and
unowned offspring Of their own city.
In the great city Of Chicago there are
only two institutions for the care of
ioundlings, and the lieutenant complains
that they are SO crowded that the police
men are seriously embarrassed.
In the course of his remarks he said
that during the "busy season" lour babies
were often found in one night, the average
being two a night during the months OF
August, September and October, the
heaviest in the year
4 similar regularity in the season of
founding frulttulncss led an old police
officer in New York to make note of cir.
cumstancc in order TO determine what
physiological law governed the supply.
He found that In the months of April
and May, the crop of abandoned waits was
the most plcnteous, and that so far AS
could be ascertained, the mothers were
young and had been led astray.
The next best season was September
aud October but the authority referred
to could not arrive at any general cause,
although he was puzzled by the conclu-
sion derived from his data, that the great
majority OF mothers concerned at this
period were wives in extremely poor cir.

The police officer, putting his facts be.

parents against the plcnIcs and dancing

CRAWFORD.

Special to the Gazette
CRAWFORD, Ten, Sept s.-The inter-
est and excitement has to some extent
died down over our county prohibition
election.
The prohibition advocates are, how
ever, still OF good cheer, and say this will
only canse them to work harder in the
next election, which they will petition for
again, so soon as it can legally be done.
The estimated cost to the anti Prohibi-
tionists to carry the county, is $500. To
the Prohibtionists, the entire cost was
S20O.s0. They say they are coming,
again and again, until they paralyze the
rum power.
Instructions from the executive chair
man, order al organizations to keep up
their meetings and carry the grand cause
over the head of all opposing powers.
Cotton Is coming in at rapid rate.

Falls, Navarro, and one or two other coun-
ties have rejected prohibition, BY major
titles ranging from 20OO in McLcnnan to
two or three hundred Ia some OF the
smaller counties Gregg, Parker and
Grayson are 10 vote on the same question
this week. In two Of these the local Pro-
hibltionists are certain to be defeated,
and probably in all three
These results show surprising reac-
ton Of popular feeling, A few months
ago there was nothing to Withstand the
triumphant Prohibtionlsts. Almost
without exceptions they carried every
county where vote was taken. Elated
and confident they entered upon cam
paign to conquer the state. The repulse
In McLennan was a surprise, and in
every succeeding engagement, except one,
they have been worsted and discounted.
VIII they give up the contest, or will It
be renewed under other auspices?
Under the law, they cannot have an
other election in those counties where
they have been defeated until the cxpira-
tion of twelve months from the date of
the last vote on local prohibition. Then,
upon petition of requisite number Of
voting citizens, new election may be
held and the fight fought over.
We do not think the Prohibitlonits are
anxious for another trial of their strength
after the reverses of the recent past. fla
further attempt 10 secure prohibition In
Texas shall be made, il will be through
the submission Of constitutional amend
ment similar to that adopted In Kansas.
To attain the submission of such ques.
ton to the people, legislature favorable
to the proposition must first be elected.
This involves local fight In the repre-
sentative and senatorial districts. Then
will come the contest In earnest, and it
will rage all over the state at once
Doubtless there are many who would
support any measure looking to state pro-
hibition, who are not convinced of the
virtue of local prohibition. Confcssing
the evils of whisky traffic, they deny the
efficacy OF local measures to amcliorate
1t. The prohibition of whisky in one
town or county does not check its use
when it flows copiously in the adjoining
towns. Taking this view of the matter,
acknowledging the utter incompetency Of
local prohibition, many Of the best friends
Of temperance vote against its adoption,
or decline to vote at all,
We do not think the prediction an i'm
probable one, to say that the next fight
between temperance and whisky in this
state will be II general engagement, in
stead of the guerrilla warfare of the pres.
ent. The result of the contest then will
be decisive, and twill settle the question

In the railway lumber yard here. He re-
ceved severe and what may prove fatal
injuries about the head. The stiff hat he
wore at the time undoubtedly saved him
from immediate death, as the first blow
aimed from behind with some heavy sharp
instrument severed the hatbrim and made
a ghastly wound at the base of the brain.
Three fingers of his right hand were bro
ken, done no doubt while trying to pro-
tect his head from n second blow The
object was ROBBERY, as a fine gold watch
and chain and about fifty dollars, as near
as can be learned, were stolen from his
person. He was taken to Wallis
for medical aid, but the doc
tors there were unable to say
as to extent OF his injuries, and he was
removed to Galveston last night. His
mind ls so affected that he don't appear
to realize his condition, and fails to recall
anything incident to his assault
Measures are being taken to discover
the villainous perpetrators of this deed,
and 1t is to be hoped they viii soon be
