day next, April 22nd. All Texas
should unite in that work and prove
by the result not only her devotion to
the memory of her gallant slain, but
her rebuke of the legislative niggards
who put dishonor upon them. These
men will, very few of them, see legis-

saved by the force of municipal dis
like and local prejudice against San

litically damned. Bury them under a

a DEEP-DYRD RASCAL.
That is What the Authorities Say that
Charles Craig Is.

In the mayors court yesterday morning
Charles Craig was bound over to answer
in the superior court for highway robbery,
and in default of bail was committed to
jail Abram Stephens swore positively
that Craig is the man who snatched Mrs.
George A. HudsOn's pocketbook, but col
ored barber came forward and coolly testi-
fed that Craig had, with only an occasional
intermission Of five minutes, sat in q
Broughton street barber shop from 2
o'clock p. m, to 8 O'Clock in the evening of
the day Of the robbery
1t appears, however, that Craig has any
thing but savory reputation. Aaron
Rnsglio a salesman in "A clothing store In
this city, recognized Craig on the street as
one Butts, who had served five years in the
South Carolina penitentiary, and saluted
Craig as Butts Craig said: Don't call me
Butts But Rosigio told Butts that the
latter couldn't deceive him. and he had bet
ter not attempt any Of his tricks In Savan-
nah, or he would be run IN.
Officer Basch has received information
from the authorities at Augusta that
Craig has been in custody several
times up there. Tho information is
to the effect that he was arrested
there tho Inst time for burglary, and
burglar tools were found on his person, but

IN tins city, but admitted that be had met

mayor in an inner room, but the officers
say that 1t ia essential to rid the city of
