Alas! when the day has gone by
How heavy and heartfelt the sigh,

For the fireworks and din,

Ger his pillow, then reckons the cost
Which the days sport imposed,
In his both o: ties closed
And the finger or two he has lost.

DIED ON THE CARS.

Conductor Redwine Expires on Santa
Fe Train Near Galveston,
Special Telegram to the Statesman.
GALVESTON, January 19.-"Wake up, old
fellow" said Conductor Schiller Lorenz,
of the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe railway,
this morning as he gave the bowed figure
OF man friendly shake. The person
addressed was Conductor Anderson Red
wine, of the same road,who was on his way
to this city to take out local passenger
train No. 2, which runs to Temple every
morning. Having complained to his
friend Lorenz that he had lost considera-
BILE sleep of late and that his eyes were
paining him greatly, the conductor passed
on through the car, but returned
about O'Clock. Seeing Redwine still
in recumbent position, he again
attempted to rouse him, but without sue
cess. Upon further inspection II was
ascertained that Redwine was dead. The
last time Conductor Lorenz saw his friend
alive was when the train was about fifty
six miles from here. The deceased seemed
in perfect health then and ohatted pleas
antly on various topics. On reaching the
| oibJ buo UOuy Wbb removed 10 bue u0uor-
taking establishment of Levy d. Bro, and
an inquest was held BY Judge Spann. The
only witness examined was Conductor
Lorenz, who stated substantially the above
account. The dead man was born in
Water Valley, Miss, and was about
81 of years of age. He had been
conductor on the Santa Fe road
for a number of years and was an in
fuential member of the Order of Railway
Conductors. His proposed trip this morn
ing at 1880 would have been his first en-
ployment on this division. The brother
of the deceased, who is a conductor on
the Arkansas Pass railroad, has been tele-
graphed to, as nothing could be CLEANED
from papers found on the body which
would throw any light upon his domestic
affairs. This was the only relative noti-
fed. When informed by telegraph of
the sudden taking off of his brother,
Conductor J. @. mcfarland, chief con-
ductor of the state, wired back inn
medistely that he would send member
of the order from Sealy, Tex, to take.

A SAD CASE,
A Man Wrestles with Disease
Alone for Several Days.

AlOA6 1OT DSV0Idl AIuyo'
Mr.. Paul Hines, night Waterman en-
ployed for sometime at Mr.. Davis saloon
on the corner of the Avenue and Fifth
street, failed to report for duty Tuesday
night.
He resided at No. 305 Brazos street, but
no one thought of calling to see about
him as it was known his family was out
of town and it was supposed he had gone
after them.
Wednesday he did not report, and
Thursday morning Officer Davis
was informed of his absence
and went down to his house to ascertain
if he could hear of his whereabouts. He
found him in bed sick and helpless, where
he had been without any attention what
ever since Tuesday morning.
His condition was deplorable indeed
and as soon as possible medical and every
attention possible was given him.
Doctors johnson and Graves were
called in and pronounced his disease con
gestion of the lungs. A nurse was hired
by Mr.. Davis, jr., and the sick man was
carefully nursed until yesterday morning
when he died.
His family was notified and reached
home last afternoon in time to attend his
funeral.

The coal market is also creeping and

The tin market is dull, but lead is firm.

Although foreign exchange is a trihe

stocks has not been stronger than expect

the prospect that an agreement may be

to lessen confidence in its practical eff

were 331.

Butter Making.

One of the New England reports on the
factory system in butter making says a
greater gain is realized by patrons in the
increased quantity of butter made than in
the higher price it brings. The amount
of money realized in one test was little
over thirty-six per cent in favor of the
creamery, the price being the same per
pound. This is point that is not often
sufficiently considered in summing up the
benefits of the creamery. While 1t is true
that some of the patrons are skilled enough
to get the last drop of cream out of the
milk, yet it is fact that the average dairy
man little knows how much cream ne is
losing all the time. He can only tell by
weighing the cream and butter and then
comparing his yield with some other mans

Gathering Cream

Can this be true that experiments at the
stations have proved that milk left out OF
the water ten minutes after being drawn
from the COW lost seven per cent of cream
and that left out half an hour, lost thirty
per cent. over that submerged as quickly
as possible after being drawn. We are
ready to believe thatthereis a decided ad-
vantage in getting the milk into the paus
or cans and icewater as soon as possible
after it is drawn from the COW, but the
above gains of speed over delay rather
staggers us. We are willing to swallow
the seven per cent. story but when it
comes to 80 per cent, nearly one-third of
tina cream, we call halt.

When Did Cigars Come Into Use P

The use of cigars by civilized people is
much more recent than most people sup
pose. The real cigar, which is pure roll
of tobacco alone, probably originated in
Cuba, where the very best cigars are still
made. If not there it was undoubtedly in
one of the West India islands. Their
origin with US, as in Europe, did not begin
until early in the present century. 1t is
said that of all the various cook-books
published between 1900 and 1915, and
books which treat of the pleasures and
adjuncts of taste before the last-named
date, not one refers to the after-dinher
cigar or to cigars at all. Cigars are now
made all over the civilized world. They
are produced very extensively in Bremen
and Hamburg, and at Seville, in Spain

THE SAENGERFEST.
Only Thirteen Weeks and The1
the Great Festival.
A Magnificent Programme Being
Arranged Which Will
Delight Everybody.

It is now only thirteen weeks and the
seventeenth German Saengerfest will oc-
cur in this city.
President A. B. Langerman is the right
man in the right place, and he is moving
things early. By the way, he is of strik-
ing appearance, is fine impromptu
and taste. There is no doubt but what he
is going to make a great success.
SOME G1IMPsEs.
The festivities will open with grand
torchlight procession, fireworks and illu-
mlnations on Monday evening, April %
to be finished up with a grand "Oom-
mers," an occasion only known and prop
erly observed by our German friends.
This day has been chosen as the legal
observance of San Jacinto day, the 21st
falling on Sunday. The first grand con-
cert will be given Tuesday evening, the
second on Wednesday and the Fest ball
will close the ceremonies Thursday night.
1t will probably be given in the new CAPT
toll and be grand affair.
The managers of the "Fest" evidently
believe in patronizing home industry, as
the orchestra is to be organized under the
leadership of Professor Herzog, and is to
consist of resident Texas musicians; in
fact, Professor Herzog, with the usual
energy for which he is noted, has engaged
thirty prominent musicians of the state
for the occasion already, and under his
thorough training and leadership will be
one of the prominent features.
The West Texas Saengerbund has &C.
cepted an invitation to be present, and as
this is an independent organization from
the Texas Saepgerbund the attendance of
active singers will be greatly augmented.
A grand concert to take place in the ro-
tunda of the capitol is one of the features
spoken of during festival week.
Austin's pride, the Musical Union, under
the leadership of Professor William .Bes-
serer, who stands second to none as a
leader, have kindly consented to assist in
the various concerts.
The "Sengerrunde" and "Mennerchor"
are rehearsing together at present.
Indications point to an immense gath
ering of our Teutonic friends from all
parts of the state and it can be set down
that the occasion is going to be grand
musical treat.
