Attic sametime, very interesting
revival was in progress at Ebenezer
Methodist Episcopal Church. Rev.
Y. A. Sharpe, strong man, is the
pastor. He was assisted by Rev.
MIR. johnson, Of Durham, who won
golden opinions from all of every
denomination.
A great revival at 0'Kelley's
Chapel closed Friday last. Some of
the oldest and hardest cases were
converted and joined the church.
Rev, j. d. Wicker, the pastor had
no help; he is decidedly a good
preacher and jealous worker. This
is the Oldest church in this section.
At first, it was simply a Wesleyan
Methodist Society within the Epis-
copal church; then after the his
toric Christian Conference it was a
Methodist Episcopal Church; after
the OKellegan Secession, it Was a
Republican Methodist church,
which name was changed about
1896 to Christian Church.

preached DR.. Talmage, and there
upon served him with an attach
ment, at the instigation of the
Maplewood Park association, otherwise
the WaSeca Chautauqua assembly. The
attachment is the result of the deter
mination of the association to secure
S250G damages from DR.. Talmage for
breaking his engagement to lecture at
last years assembly. The association
made contract with DIR. Talmage to
lecture at Maplewood July 4, 1888, ana
advertised the engagement broadcast
throughout this and adjoining states. A
large number of excursion parties we're
organized to attend the assembly, but
judge the chagriQ of the members of
the association when, few days prior
to the Fourth. they received telegram
stating that Mr.. Talmage could not
come. The association was compelled
to inform the excursion parties OF the
change of front by the doctor, and, in
consequence. suffered severe loss.
Numerous letters have since passed be-
tween DR.. Talmage and the association.
with no satisfactory result: and now,
when the reverend gentleman has ven
tured into the state, the association has
taken steps to see whether it cannot le-
gally bind him to his contract, and COM
pei him to pay damages.

Death of James NJ. Frazier, an Inmate of the
Confederate Home.

One by one the old veterans who
find welcome asylum in the Confed-
crate Home are passing away, and
this morning it is the sad duty OF
The STATESMAN to record the death
of another of the inmates of that noble
institution, which affords home in
deed for those who seek its shelter.
James M. Frazier was admitted
TO the Home on August 81,
1889, and departed this life
at very early hour yesterday morn
ing. He was in quite feeble state
of health when he entered the Home,
and during his last illness he was
tenderly cared for by son, together
with the officers of the institution.
He was frequently visited by Rev. E.
B. Chappell, pastor of the Tenth
Street Methodist church, and who Of
ficiated yesterday at . his burial DR..
Chappell spoke of the deceased as in
deed good man.
But little is known here of his early
or army life. The roster at the
Home shows that he was born
in Mississippi on August
81, 1887, Che entered the
Home on August 81, and came to
Texas in 1S4S. His occupation was
merchandising. He enlisted in the
Confederate army in 1861, serving in
Company A, of Gillespie's regiment,
Garland's brigade, Churchhill's di-
vision, and was taken prisoner at
"Arkansaw Post" He was modest in
his manners, never caring to talk
about the war. He has been a wild
over some years, and leaves, be-
sides the son mentioned, two or three
children to mourn his loss. 1t will be
gratifying to them to know that he
died not among strangers, but there
were those around him to smooth his
pillow as the tide of his life flowed
out into the unknown sea of eternity.
His grave was beautifully decorated
with choice flowers kindly sent by
Mrs. DR.. Smoot. A goodly number OF
members of the John B. Hood Camp
were present at the burial, from among
whom the following were chosen as
pail bearers: Major w. M. Brown,
Capt. 7. F. Pinckney, Col. VIII
Lambert, Jos. G. Booth, Isaac Stein
and d. F. Wright.
May he reast in peace.

Happily Welded.

The Rev. Richard E. Lentz and
Miss Ophelia Hensley, of Turnersville,
Tex, were united in marriage at that
place on the 9th inst. This was a
matter of universal surprise to Mr..
Lentz' large circle of friends in this
city. He attended the Austin school
OF theology last session and in the
summer went to Turnersville to preach.
He returned yesterday to continue his
studies. His blushing countenance
and the pathetic curve of his lips soon
gave his secret away, and the hand of
congratulation was heartily ex-
tended. Miss Hensley is deservingly
popular in her native city, and
Mr.. Leutz is to be congratulated OF
his good fortune. The bright sparkle
of Mr.. Lentz's eye bespeaks the hap
piness derived from cloves young
dream" and his numerous friends re-
joice with him. The happy young
couple are domiciled at Stuart semi
nary.

BAD COUNTY ROADS.
Good Turnpikes the Only Remedy, and They
Must Be Built.

Are there any readers of The STATESMAN
who have lately driven over the roads of
Travis county? Especially during and
since the last rainy spell have they been
terrible, and many points along them have
been marked by wagon either up to the
hubs in mud or with a broken wheel, and
while no doubt the existing state of affairs
is fully relished by wheelwrights, black
smiths and wagon dealers, it is very hard
on the farmer, who in hauling his cotton to
town, meets with an accident, the remedy
Tor which will consume half the proceeds of
his load. 1t is safe to say that the taxation
necessary for the buildingand maintenance
OF tu'npikes would not be half as costly to
the farmer as his wheelwright bills. While
the citizens have, by keeping the market up
and with the Alliance yard, drawn a great
deal of the cotton trade to Austin, still
( large share is going to adjoining towns on
account of difficult approaches to this city.
The improvement to the land, through
which turnpike passes, is so evident that
} 1t is wonder why every farmer through and
by whose estate one would possibly be
made is not already Selling the oppor-
tunity by the forelock and working to have
the first road built out to his "neck of the
woods" To be able to look at the country
and the crops without the necessity of con-
tinually on the lookout for spring breakers;
to have time in ones hands for watching
the fine cattle and the well kept homes, one
is impressed much more with the thrift
ness of the country, is more struck
with the desirability of its homes than
when one examines Improvements
and cattle at the risk of horse flesh and
vehicles. The STATESMAN hopes that the
good time the voters have spent begging
and pulling and straining horses and
wagons through muddy roads for the past
year will open their eyes to this crying
need Travis county, where it is not climb
ing high lodges of limestone
through cedar breaks, runs over a rich
black soil whose tenacious quality when
wet is something to be wondered at, could,
by cutting down these Lodges and by
using the limestone which is so PLENTIFUL
build pixies at one-half the cost Of con-
structing them elsewhere.
Doubtless many farmer has in the late
year of muddy roads thought of the desira-
bility of a road where mud would be impos-
sible and The STATESMAN sincerely hopes
that the idea is now working strong in the
majority of their minds, which will cause
them III the future to be able to easily move
their produce along our fine rolling roads
and have time to be reminded of that.

attend the funeral Immediately after

Major Shelley offered the following
preamble and resolutions:
Whereas, The Great Commander
has removed from our midst our COM
rade, Col. George Flournoy; therefore,
Resolved, That in the death of our
comrade, the Hon. George Flournoy,
of San Francisco, this camp has lost a
worthy and Jealous member, the coun-
try an honored, brave, true, tried and
chivalrous soldier; a patriot, a states
man, an able and sagacious leader, a
learned, gifted and just lawyer; his
family, tender, indulgent, fond and
loving husband and father. That by
his death the ties of comradeship are
severed from one who, in his day, gen
erously helped to make glorious the
character and qualities of the south
ern soldiery and chivalry-to be treas
ured in history, and to be revered by
posterity.
Resolved, second, That to this
stricken family, in this their hour of
deep sorrow, we tender our heartfelt
sympathy and tenderest regards, with
the hope OF assurance that their loss
is his eternal gain, and that on "the
other side of the river" and "beneath
the shade of the trees" he is resting
and waiting to renew the tender ties,
temporarily severed by his absence
from them and from us.
Resolved, third That the assembly
room of this camp be draped in mourn
ing for thirty days in respect to the
memory of our departed comrade, and
that the adjutant Of this camp spread
these resolutions upon q memorial
page of our records, and furnish the
family of our deceased comrade with
an engrossed copy of the same, and
that this camp now stand adjourned.
Gov. Lubbock, in sec onding and
moving the adoption of the resolutions,
spoke in teAderest terms of the de-
ceased, paying beautiful tribute to
his memory.
The resolutions were adopted, and
the camp adjourned.
