Receptlon.

The present season in society has beer
in many respects, remarkable one. The
NUMBER and brilliancy of receptions and
other entertainments have surpassed any
previous season in the history of Austin
Hardly day passes but THE STATESMAN
chronicles some social event which has
tt ken or is to take place in this city
Yesterday was marked in society record;
by brilliant reception given by Mrs. and
Miss Pease at their residence northwest of
the city. The mansion is one perfectly
adapted for such an entertainment, there
being such generous space in the arrange
ment of the parlors that even the large
crowds that attended the reception yester-
day failed to more than comfortably fill
them. The parlors were brightly illumi-
mated and beautifully decorated.
The hours of the reception we're from 8
until II O'Clock, during which time the
ladies and their assistants were kept busy
entertaining their guests. The entertain
ment was rendered to Miss Robinson, a
beautiful and charming young lady, of
Binghampton, N. Y, who is visiting Miss
Pease.
The ladies receiving were Mrs. Pease,
Mrs. Robinson, of Binghampton, N. ";
Mrs. Henry Ladd, Miss Pease, Miss Rob-
inson, Miss Niles, Miss Jones, of Saratoga,

pendence, Tex Miss Maxey, Miss Huck,

so universally beloved as in the mar
riage of Mr.. Ed. j. Byrne and Miss Ellen
Sneed, which was solemnized yesterday
morning at half past 8 o'clock at St.
Dayid's church, according to the beautiful
Episcopal service, the Rev. 7. B. Lee
officiating. As if to give promise of the
joyous days in store for the two loving
hearts Just emberking upon life's journey
together, the morning was lovely and
serene, and the church was filed
with the numerous personal friends of
this popular couple.
The bright, intelligent and beautiful
bride is a native of this city, where a
legion of friends have seen her grow up
to sweet wOmanhocd, loving and admirlng
her at ell times. Miss Sneed is the only
daughter of Capt. and Mrs. Thos. E.
Sneed, one of the most respected and in
huential families of this city.
The groom, Mr.. Ed. j. Byrne, a Calves
tonian by birth but resident of Austin
for several years, is prominent cotton
buyer of this city and is popular with
everybody who knows him, for to know
him is to love him.
The parents and many relatives of the
bride and the father of the groom were
among those in attendance at the we'd
ding. Messrs. John 7. Dickinson and
Chas. 7. Hicks, formerly of Austin but
now of San Antonio, acted as ushers at
the church.
Immediately after the ceremony the
bridal party left for Galveston to visit the
family of the groom and will also visit
San Antonio, when they will return to
Austin and occupy their new home in
Fairview Park. The heartfelt congratu
latioIs of many warm and devoted friends
accompany them throughout life, wishing
them bon voyage and future crowded
with all the happiness of which two loving
hearts are capable.

SLICK THIEVES.
Two Agreeable Young Men Flay
the Sight Seeing Racket.

Two Agreeable Young Men Tlay
the Sight Seeing Racket.
Yesterday abe ut noon nice young
man, with demure look and feeble mus
tache, applied to Mr.. Monroe Miller, the
proprietor of the Eclipse stables, to
know if lie could hire horse for about
an hour to ride over and take look at
the city.
He was informed that he could, and he
left to return again after the steed.
Shortly after, and while Mr.. Miller was
at dinner, the young man returned and
with him a companion, who also had q
demure look and struggling upper lip
buttermilk absorber.
The two young men called for horses for
an hours ride and mounting rode off.
Up TO midnight last night they had not
returned, nor are they likely to unless they
fall into the hands of the minions of the law,
something quite probable, as Mr.. Miller
telegraphed to every available neig hbor-
ing point last night.
One of the men is riding grey branded
80 and the other q bay horse, both ex-
celent alimals.
The men, or boys, rather, are about II
years old.
Mr.. Miller vas led to believe from the
looks and conversation of the young man
who first applied to him that he was a
member of an excursion party whose car
was side-tracked at the Union depot to
remain until the south bound train ar
rived last night.

TURNPIKES.
A Prop osiuion to Build One Where
Surely Needed.

The following proposition to construct
pike over portion of as bad piece of
road as can be found will be submitted to
the county commissioners to-day, and it
is worthy of most careful consideration.
1t will be observed that the gentlemen
offer to do the work for 81 per running
yard or SLIGO mile, less money or work
contributed. That is, if persons contri-
butte money, credit will be given for the
same. Or if people along the line of the
road contribute labor or teams, compen-
sation will be allowed and the amount
deducted from tie bills.
The proposition appears to be a very
reasonable and liberal ono and it should
be given that attention its importance de-
mands. Mr.. Cullen has already constructed
short line of pike out in the same
neighborhood, and it is said to be an ex-
cellent piece of work and very salts
factory. The proposition is as below:
FEBRUARY IL, 1889.
To the Hon rable County Judge and Commits
sioners of Travis County:
Gentlemen-We, the undersigned, make
the following Offer We will macadamize
the part of the county road between John
D. Grumble's and what is known as the
Blocker Hill on the Fredericks burg road
eighteen feet in width with guarantee by
the county authorities to use the most
convenient material, being rough rocks
and gravel, for 500 per yard, less what
ever amount we can procure in money or
work by contributions and only ask time
and we will endeavcr to get as much con-
tributed as possible, both in money and
work. Yours very respectfully,
E. @. CULLEN,
j. B. SMITH,
P. NJ. RozELL.
P. s. We will do the work under tie
supervision of Commissioner Glassoock.

Special Tele gram. to the Statesman.
KYLE, February 13.-The mud is fast
disappearing and farmers are beginning
to stir. A visit over the fertile prairies
surrounding Kyle will show the visitor
that the farmers are not idle, and the
voice of the plowman is in the land.
Messrs. Albert Nance and D. A. Porter
are busy loading cars with hay and John
son grass for the San Antonio market.
Capt. Tom Martin has returned from
Aus tin, where he had been attending the
meeting of the republican state executive
committee. Captain Martin is probable
applicant for the United State3 marshal
ship of this district under the incoming
administration.
1t is rumored that Prof. L. II Martin,
colored, will be an applicant for the post
mastership at this place.
News has reached here that the only
conviction in the district court of BlaLc
comfy was that of Ebenezer Barker, an
aged man who was supposed to pc de-
mented, for COW ste aling in two cases, for
which he re ceiv,d six years in the peniten-
tiary. The grand jury adjourned, finding
only nine bills of indictment.
Mr.. Albert Nance returned from San
Antonio to-day, where he had been on
business: He was looking into the hay
market. Hay and corn shipping from this
place will be quite lively if the weather
continues good.
An attempt was made to release one of
the state convicts here last night. Ser

THE NEW BRIDGE.
Let Competent Engineers Deslg-
nate What Road to Open.

nate what Road TO open.
By which road to reach Montopolis
bridge or by any road is not the only
question with Austin The bridge is
built for the county of Travis and for all
roads tributary from that productive and
extensive section of the county bordering
upon Caldwell and Bastrop counties.
Manor and Elgin, to which latter town
much of the trade has been diverted this
year, as we'll as the town of Webberville,
will be brought in more direct communi-
cation with the city of Austin when the
Montopois bridge is completed, and
the roads in direct route must all be re-
viewed and opened.
This should be done as soon as practi-
cal by competent men and engineers,
and not by those who think they know
how to locate road. One step forward
and two backward should not be the mt T.
to, nor is it the motto of advancement
and progress. If the ways and means can
not be found to macadamize, properly
drain and properly construct, let us at
least have roads properly planned to
reach tribunal points, and centering as
near the center of the business part of
the city as may be practical. The differ
ence of one or two blocks either way will
cut 10 figure to those who
are enterprising enough to take
advantage of the opening of the bridge,
which is assured by the contractors and
engineer to be on or before the first of
April, 1889. OF this there can be but little
doubt, as the two missing railroad cars,
the last two of some thirty car loads of
iron shipped for the purpose arrived to-
day. The first span and forty feet of the
next will be ready to be freed from the
staying on Saturday, and the next one
hundred and fifty feet will be up in the
next four days. The false work has now
advanced TO the river and the engineer
has given the contractors their last
measurements and alignments. Nothing
is lacking for the COMP tior of the work
outside the vexed question OF { preaching
either by the sold" or new route from
the city. The county commissioners will
probably unravel the skein of disser ion
before their session closes, and at the
same time provide for wood or iron for
the span on the other side of the river.
If prog ess is IN then the best will be
pr, vided, and bridge constructed that
will be an object lesson 10 our people. The
contractors invite public inspection, and
engineering classes can study the special
construction of this bridge, which posses
ses all the detail and variation that is
known 10 the construction of iron high
way bridges.
