A very curious meeting of the new

Turkey near the SerYian frontier on the
opening Of continuation Of the line
from Belgrade which is eventually TO
connect with Constantinople Before
the Turkish train on the Turkish side
Of the line started there was delay to
enable some mussulman imaums TO sac
rihce three sheep and as sacrifices are
not things which can be done in hurry
the delay was long one. The passen-
gers, however, all took it very calmly,
and when the sacrifice was over got into
the cars and went their ways. We sup.
pose the sacrifice was intended to give
the train good send-off, at the same
time to provide some mutton for the

WACO WIRELINGS.

Big Picnic-Reverend Doctor Carroll
Won't Vote for Mills.
Special Telegram to the Statesman.
Waco, September 27.-There was big
labor picnic given here at Padgitt's park
to-day. The crowd present numbered
about 300 including women and children.
A courteous and elegant basket dinner
was spread upon the grounds. A large
number of people from the country were
in attendance. Hon. H. F. Ring, ,of
of Houston, was the orator of the
day. He is fluent and inter-
esting speaker, and was heartily
appreciated by his audience. Several
other speakers followed Mr.. Ring. The
picnic was followed by grand ball at the
park tonight.
Rev. B. H. Carroll, of this city, publishes
an open letter, which will appear to-
morrow, replying to letter received by
him short time ago by the Hon. Webb
Finley, of Tyler, chairman of the state
democratic executive committee, asking
him doctor CarrolD to stump the state
for the democracy. Doctor Carroll refuses
to take any part in politics, and stated that
he thought it unbecoming a minister to
do SO. He also states in this letter his
reasons for taking part in the late Prohi-
bition campaign, as he deemed it moral
question and therefore thought it his duty
to render what assistance he could to the
prohibition cause. Doctor Carroll con-
cludes by saying that he intends to vote
the straight democratic ticket, with the
exception of Hon. R. Q. Mills for congress
in this district and will give his support to
the Hon. E. A. Jones instead.

we're his diversion, and he was
reckless of expense. He staid
about a week, but during that time he
succeeded in giving it away that he was

foot of Lake Michigan. Some of the fly

ro6ber and began to shadow him. He
caught on and pulled his freight. He was
arrested at Houston, but there was no
evidence upon which to hold him and he
was released.
