THE New York Court Of Appeals

The New York Court Of Appeals
has rendered a decision granting
BoodIer McQuade, of the New York
Board of Aldermen, another trial.
He has already served nearly two
years of his seven years sentence,
and If the new trial which is order
ed should result in q disagreement
of the Jury or his acquittal he has
been given a lesson on the dangers
of Doodle legislation that is likely to
last him a lifetime. 1t is hardly
likely that any more of the Doodle
trials will ever be called, except
possible the new trial of McQ iade,
as District Attorney Fellows has de-
clared that there was no time to try
them. Th is declaration surprises
no one, as it was well understood
that Colonel Fellows election meant
the abandonment of any further
trials. The next move on the board
will probably be for the pardon OF
Jaehne and all others who have been
convicted in former Doodle trials

night, and will probably remain

senatorial docket. and from now
until the close of the campaign he
will work with his coat off and his
sleeves rolled up. There were a
few persons who were disposed to
critlcise him because he did not
neglect his work IN the Senate and
take more active part in the pre-
liminary arrangements of the cam

that there was plenty for him to do,
even from a party standpoint, IN
the Senate. At the Capitol it is
generally conceded that his speech
on the appropriations in reply to
Senator Allison and his remarks
on the Canadian fisheries and Chi

speeches of this session.

Park Bank defaulter, still in Cana
da; Foster, the mortgage forger, q
fugitivc-is justice a failure in New
York? Do criminals able to hire
sharp lawyers with stolen money
fear the law? These are serious
questions for the people of New
York.
The Now York World, Demo-
cratic:
Between mud-headed legislators,
w-hunting lawyers, and hair split
ting judges-with plenty of mon
ey thrown in to "fix" juries and
prevent testimony-Justice has a
hard time of it and rascals flourish.
Nothing has done so much to bring
the law into contempt in this coun-
try as the men whose business it is
to practice and expound it.

FIRST HOLY COMMUNION.
Solemn and Impressive Services
at ST. Mary's.

The first holy communion, as made
according to the rules of the Catholic
church, is always very grand and most i'm
pressive. At 10 O'Clock last Sunday morn
ing at the last sound of the large sonOr-
Gus bell. summoning the faithful 10 divine
worship, thirty-four children--thirtetn
bows dressed in black, and twenty one
girls, dressed in Whitehall holding richly
ornameuted, lighted wax candles in their
right hands, entered the church in pro
cession. Solemn high mass was cele-
brated by the reverend pastor, the
Reverend Father John O'Keefe, G. S.
c., acting as deacon, and the Rev.
Mr.. OmeIh, c. 5. c., as sub deacon.
Immediately after the gospel, Father
O'Keefe delivered short but compre-
hensive sermon on the feast of the day;
viz: on the patronage of ST. Joseph. Be
fore the children received holy com
munion, the reverend pastor congratC-
lated them on their great happiness of re-
ceiving their Lord and Saviour for the
first time in their lives; he exborted them
to renew an act of lively faith, of firm,
hope and ardent charity, once more; Re
earnestly entreated them to pray fervently
for tie great grace of perseverance, that
they may continue TO the end of their
lives to be good Christians and good citl-
Zens.
At 4 O'Clock in the afternoon vespers
was celebrated and a sermon
preached on the renewal of
the baptismal vows by the Rev. F. R
Garesche, S. j. The sermon was gem of
tloquence, at the conclusion of which he
spoke m st feeliugly and touchingly to
the children.
The choir must be congratulated on the
beautiful manner in which they rendered
the many difficult but beautiful eces.
There is really something grand and

the essential! forms of true worship Or
dained by God; viz: An altar, priest

emn ceremonies are carried out infinitely;
the vestments of the priests, the solemn
church music, all tell him and make him
feel that he is in the house of God, wor-
Shipping God according to the manner

THE LILY.
A State sman Reporter Visits Her
LuXurious Car.


Mrs. Nellie Langtry reached the city
yesterday in her special car, and knowing
the deep interest felt by the citizens of
Austin In the welfare of the distinguished
actress and beautiful woman, The STATES
MAN reporter called on hr Immediately
after her arrival.
He was met at the door of the Car by
an Engish-looking pair of Burnsides and
cool stare.
Hand that to Nellie" said the reporter,
with the utmost sang froid and quiet,
musical voice.
The Burnside3 wilted, and gasping, in
continently fell over into the coal box in
a profouud swoon and very stiff collar.
His face attracted attention ard the re-
porter, observing a lady somewhat dis =
habille, whatever that is, coming down the
aisle of the luxuriously furnished car,
fastened to meet her.
"Mrs. Langtry, it affords me profound
pleasure TO meet you on this suspicious
occasion and in behalf Of the citizens of
the capital of this great state, with its
matchless plains, its towering mountains,
its babbling brooks and its laughing rills;
its great fields of waving grain and flow
ering cotton; its cattle on athousand hills,
its heel flies, its Legislature, its bursting
treasury and starving school teachers, |
welcome you. As | gaze upon that form of
thine and as my eagle eye seeks the depths
of your own pale blue orbs and fascinat-
ingly liDger upon your raven tresses and
their brown paper curlegigs, l recognize
you"
"I'm-Im-"
Don't mention it, madam. l would
recognize you anywhere on earth or else
where. That beauteous form, those re-
splerd dent eyes, that pretty face, which l
have rapturously gazed upon i'll the ciga-
rette boxes at the tobacco stores and on
the soap wrappers in the quiet of my own
kitchen on wash days, has impressed you
on my mind. In behalf of the citizens of
Austip, repeat it, madam, | recognize

solitary and alone called on you. Until

maid swooned and fell in the coal scuttle,
and the reporter left.

"Consider the LilY."

Curiosity is satisfied. Langtry has
shown herself before an Austin audience,
and there it ends. 1t is safe to say that
little more than curiosity brought out the
large house of last night, and the gratiti-
cation thereof was not so gratifying, so
TO speak, as that of the historic individual
who ate the first oyster.
Langtry is not an actress. Neither is
she such ravishing beauty. She is not
so good looking as she was three or four
years ago. She has accumulated consider
able avoirdupois since she came TO
America, and, to sreak plainly, is "fa',"
and fat is not becoming to her. Her
form, which was willowy, has become
rather clumsy, and her stage movements
are by no means graceful.

Fortunate Lumber Camp Ticket
Holders.

Some months ago party working in
the lumber camp of VIM. Coach, on the
Sturgeon river, ordered 81 tenth tickets
in The Louisiana State Lottery. One of
these was tenth of ticket No. 7l,575,
which won the first prize of $150,000 in
the drawing of the 7th of February, Civ
ing the handsome sum of $4,000 to be di-
vided. There were sixteen in the club, the
tickets being sent to Geo. j. johnson, of
Baraga. Three of the holders were of
one family, being John Bodwein, his wife
and child, who thus secure a good share.

A Merry Day.

OF the many pleasant picnic5 enjoyed
on San Jacinto day one of the merriest
was that given to the Bancroft G. l.. S. L.
on the lawn of John l.. Vredenburgh, on
Evergreen Heights south of the river.
Nearly dozen different games, all the
way from parcheesi to lawn tennis, mu1ic
and happy Iolicking songP, an elegant
dinner spread on regular tables and plenty
of ice cream made the day one long de-
light. Twas a day long to be remem-
bered by all fortunate enough to be
present on the occasion. The gathering
shades of night forced retreat from the
grounds at last and brought TO close
day full of pleasure from beginning to
end. Such days are wsy-m marks on the
journey of life to be remembered only by
their great happiness and their rarity.

On Thursday evening, May 10, the can
tata of "The Flower Queen" will be gor-

in the coming festival. The stage sit
tinRs and decorations will be beautiful
aud grand, and the whole effect will be
