most important bill. much more far-reach-
ing than many thought, and bad desired

ment against the bill, but he found him.

ANOTHER INDUSTRY.
The Manufacture of Gentlemen's
Canes From Texas Horn.

The Manufacture of GentIemen's
Canes From Texas Horn.
San Antonio now can boast of a
new industry that has developed
within the last few days, namely, a
horn cane mandatory, which is
located on Avenue G, and where the
most beautiful transparent canes for
gentlemen are made from hundreds
Of small pieces of the horns of Texas
cattle, The process of their manufac-
ture is most interesting and con-
sists first in securing a finely
tempered steel rod, the proper length
for a cane, and about quarter of an
inch in thickness. Then the horn is
selected, steamed until it is flattened
out like a piece Of board, and then
dried. After being dried, it is put in a
lathe and buttons the size Of the cane
to be made, are cut out. These are
bored in the centre and then strung
tightly on the steel rod, when
they are again fastened to the
lathe and cut to the re-
quired dimensions and polish
ed. The cane is then ready for the
ferule and the handle, and 1t is done.
Such a cane requires one mans
work for a day and sometimes for two
days, and brings in the market from
$ to SO, as tn work on it warrants.
one very fine one was sold recently
for 81.
Umbrella handles and riding and
driving whips can also I've made in a
similar manner.

OUR CATHOLIC STRENGTH.
INTERVIEW WITH RIGHT REV
BISHOP NERAZ.

Strength Of the Catholics Of Western
TeXas---The Rapid Growth of
the ReIigiOn--Travels of
the Bishop, Etc.
Passing down Dwyer avenue, a
large, evidently three.storled house,
cannot escape the notice of the pedes-
trian. This is the dwelling of Rt.
Rev. Father Neraz, the Catholic
Bishop of the West Texas diocese.
This ecclesiastic officer presldes over
a stretch of country extending over
some 10000 square miles and COM
prises all the land between the Colo
RADIO and the Rio Grande rivers, ex-
cept that domain south of the AFRO
yoso river and Live Oak, Bee, Goliad
and Refugio counties.
The Bishops district IS very large
and the searching inquiries that he
has made as to the number of Catho-
lies residing therein has developed
the fact that they are $4,000 strong.
For the accommodation of the faithful
laymen there are something like fifty
churches, nine chapels, three colleges,
three converts for educational purpo-
ses, one regular seminary and twenty
L
great number of Catholic societies in
his diocese, there being four of them
in this city alone, while in almost
every German or Polish parish there
is one at least.
The total number of priests in the
district is fifty-one, eleven OF these
being of the regular or religious order,
and the other forty being secular
priests. The difference betw cen the
two classes, as the reporter under
stands it, is that the secular priests
are under the instructions of a bishop,
while the priests of the regular or re-
ligious order received their instruC-
tiOns from higher eccleCiastic authOri-
ties.
OF the sisters who devote themselves
exclusively to the propagation of
Christianity as accepted by the Cath
Ole church, there are about three
hundred nuns, sisters, novitIates, be-
longing to the two well-knOwn orders,
Sisters of Charity and Sisters of Prov
idence.
Bishop Neraz, when asked if he
had already started upon the visits
in his diocese, said that he
had already paid four OF them
to different communities, but there
was no regular time fixed for
the vistatiOns, he going to some
places twice year, once year, once
every two or three years-aIl depend
ing upon the time, distance ana i'm
portance of the place. Then he drew
forth little memorandum book and
gave the reporter the following data,
which represented part of the work
he has performed since the first OF
this year:
On january 18th he confirmed IL
persons; April -, at New Braun'fes,
-; April 30, at Seguin, -; May II, at
~. Joseph church, this city, 6@; May
H. at Labidad, lbs; May -, at Schu-
lenberg, 19S. May -, at San Fernan-
10 cathedral, this city, he confirmed
297, a total of $50 combinations thus
far. while last year he confirmed
?j34 persons. AS to the extent of
travelling while visiting in his do
cese, Bishop Neraz says that in per-
forming his duty lie travelled over
5000 miles.

A WATER SUPPLY
That Could BE Availed of to Feed the
City, If Necessary.

City, If Necessary.
While looking over the machinery
and freezing rooms of the Crystal Ice
Co., LIGHT reporter was kindly
shown the we'll known artesian wells.
These are four in number, three OF
which give regular flow of 5000, 900
gallons of water, while the other a
sulpher we'll pours for the several
hundred thousand gallons daily.
To one of these wells there is at
tached hose which throws power
ful stream of water and very ham
dy thing in case of fire it is. The
stream of another we'll is led up into
the factory and supplies all the water
that is needed.
The water that flows from three
Of these gushing phenomena, is OF
the healthiest kind. AS compared
with our WaterwOrks water, the ar
tesian water contains but fifteen
grains of solid matter while the for
mer IS grains. There are but seven
grains of lime in the artesian water
where there are twenty in the other,
and the daily flow of these wells ex-
coed, the daily consumption of our
waterworks water by Sd million or
80, 900 gallons.
What great thing it would be-"
said a party of strangers who were
inspecting the wells, "to pipe this
precious flow and lead it through the
town.

Unpleasantly Warm at Austin-Bad Blood

Special to the Gazette.
AUSTIN, TEX. Aug. 6.-There was
session of the board of appeals from the
assessment by the comptroller of Texa'
in uporganized counties, the board
consisting of the governor, attorney
general and secretary of state. The case
of Owens, from McLenDan, covering as
easements in some of the western coun-
ties, was heard.
The comptroller registered $500, 900 OF
Denison sewerage bonds.
The comptroller has received from the
Terrell Times-Star the first proof OF the
advertisement of tax sales in morgan
lied counties.
The Injunction gotten out by the water
company, In the name of Victor Mather,
president of the company, against the
city of Austin, to prevent the issuance OF
81 400 900 dam bonds, created general
and intense indignation among all
classes. The citizens OF Austin considered
this their last chance to build up their
CITY. Some citizens propose as retslis-
tory measure to get up a general boycott
of the water company by cutting of their
water al ogether. There is much bad
blood, and it would be easy to get up
