DALLAS, TEX, Jan. 5.-News reached
the city this morning of an event last
night at Garland, few miles north of
the city, similar to the recent Birming
ham affair. The particulars are as fol-
lows: On last Thursday Deputy Sheriff
1. A. Moore arrested at Garland a man
by the name of Jack 0 'Brien. A gang
had burglarized two of the village stores
Wednesday night and a quantity of the
missing goods were found in O'Brien s
keeping. o 'Brien was brought to Dallas
and jailed, but yesterday he was taken
back to Garland to have an examining
trial before the justice of the peace.
There he had his trial and was bound
over to await the action of the grand jury
FAILING TO GIVE BOND,
Deputy Moore took the prisoner to the
depot TO await the arrival of the Dallas
train, which was an hour or so late
About 10 80 'clock he left the prisoner
in charge of friend while he went to a
store several hundred y2rds distant to
get some cigars. During his absence
masked mob of about a dozen men as
saulted the depot and took the prisoner
off TO Embree park, one and
a quarter miles distant The
deputy returning soon thereafter
and learning the situation procured
horse and followed the mob at full speed.
When he arrived at the park he found
the mob
IN THE ACT
of stringing O'Brien upon limb. He
dashed into the crowd, cut the rope and
rescued the well-nigh strangled prisoner.
This act took the crowd little by sur
prise, but they rallied, and number of
them again wrenched the prisoner away
from him and made off to the park pa
viliOn while others held the deputy The
deputy struggled with his adversaries,
and i'll the meantime the other part of
the mob were engaged in stringing
. Brien up to joice of the pavilion.
Moore finally freed himself from the grasp
of the mob, drew his siX-shOoters, routed
them and advanced to the pavilion
Pistol in hand he again reached his
prisoner and cut him down just in time
TO SAVE HIS LIFE.
The mob gathered again, but the deputy
opened fire upon them and they retreated
a short distance and returned the fire.
Some twenty-five or thirty shots were
exchanged and the deputy and his
prisoner were unframed. Several of the
mob are supposed to be wounded, but it
is not known whether seriously or
not. Moore took his prisoner back to the
Garland depot, guarded him all night and
brought him safely to Dallas this morn
ing and placed him in jail. o Brtn says
he thought each time he was swinging
that he had through ticket to glory and
that it was the most uncomfortable feel
ing he ever had in his life.

The Italian Method of Singing.

Saturday Review.
It is an acknowledged fact that the
greatest singers the world has produced
have been those who have been taught in
the old Italian school, and the very few
really eminent singers now before the
public, such as Nine. Trebelli Mr. Sims
Reeves, Nine. Adelina Patti, and one OF
two others, are all of them proficient in
this method. 1t is lamented that whereas
at the present. time there are naturally as
many fine voices in the world as ever,
there are very few really great singers.
Passing over many of the causes of
the present deterioration of the vocal
art, such as the influence of the Wagner
ian school and the decline of Italian Op-
era, which are more or less irrelevant to
our object, we will give the foremost
place to that which Is certainly the chief
among them-namely the want of an
obligatory course of thorough training in
mechanism of singing before the higher
part is reached, and the almost total ex-
tinction of the long line of great teach
ers, not only i'll this country, but Italy
herself. The Italian maestri of the past
considered that it was absolutely neces-
sary for singer, if he or she intended to
become eminent, to devote at least
from five to six years study to this great
art. As a rule, the first two or three
years were employed in forming the voice
and in teaching the elementary exercises
anu solfeggi, after which the pupil was
allowed to sing songs, ballads and ope-
ratio pieces. The highest aim, it would
seem, of the majority of our young sing
ers, in their earnest desire to begin to
earn a livelihood for themselves, is to
acquire at the end of six months study
under an Indifferent teacher a knowledge
of how TO sing half a dozen ballads
tolerably well, after which they usually
consider themselves accomplished artists
The public, which is no longer in touch
with really great singing, applSuds
them, and they go the rounds of En-
gland and America with their very limited
repertoire, and, fortunately for them
selves, but unfortunately for true art,
are able to make fair living. Great
ness they can never achieve, because
greatness in singing, as in every other
art, can only come with patience, time,
and hard work.

BOWIE'S SHOOTING SCRAPE.

Wiedman Fell at the First Fire, but He Was
Never Punctured by Lead
Special to the Gazette.
BOWIE, TEX. Jan. 5.-The shooting
scrape last night is not as bad as reported :,
and Wledman was not shot at all. He
locked himself up in his house and defied
the officers to arrest him; and, after an
hour or so, the officers effected an en-
trance and ''cornered the gentleman
Lewis statement is to the effect that
when he LIE wis) first shot, Wiedman fell
to the ground, and Lewis supposed that
he had mortally wounded him; but it
now transpires that Wiedman had no
more cartridges in his Winchester and
played 'possum on Lewis.
Wiedman was placed under $1,000 bond
and up TO this hour, 1925
p. m, he has failed III finding
bondsmen. Sheriff McLain will take
him to Montague this evening and place
him in jail for safe keeping or until
Monday morning, when he may probably
be able to give the bond 1t is a mixed
up trial and sympathy is with Joe Lewis
on account probably of the rumor that
Wiedman is a dangerous man.

ready authorized to be levied, and that
a poll of 81 for the same purpose.
The bond men seeing that the ants
were about to bind the convention against
bonds, Colonel Hughes offered the fol-
lowing as a substitute for Colonel Brown S
resolution, and it was overwhelmingly
adopted:
Resolved, that this convention faYors
an amendment of our present road law in
such manner as will better facilitate the
building of public roads.
The convention then adjourned.

Special to the Gazette.
BOWIE, TEX, Jan. 5.-The report
about the county treasurer being behind

city, a correct accountant, was called by
the commissioners court to investigate
Tic DOOhS, iIid IlO HIS ItpOIIC a siAOA u
age of S4875. The treasurer viii try to
make new bond, and few of his bonds
men are willing to stay on his bond, so
he can continue in office, but
they want to appoint a "sub''
under him' to handle the funds.
What course the commissioners court
will take in reference to this scheme
no one knows, some few oppose it, while
others favor it The treasurer has but
twenty days to make new bond; and if
he should fail to make the bond the COM
missioners' court will appoint a new
county treasurer to fill the unexpired
term. There are no less than twenty-five
candidates for the position.
