supposed Poisoning Case.

Two negro women on Mr.. j. A.
Dunlap's place, east of town, were
taken suddenly and strangely sick a
few days ago under circumstances
that should be investigated. Albert
Guess and another negro named
Corey, the latter an ex-convict, are
living on the place and have beenfor
some time carrying on a row
with each other. They were rivals
and dusky damsel named Becky
Toland the cause of their troubles.
She left the place finally and their
affections seemed to be transferred
to the two other women, reference
to whose sudden sickness has been
made. The women claimed that
they had been poisoned from bread
that they ate, and it was said that
some of the meal from the barrel
made into dough killed chickens to
which it was fed almost instantly.
DR.. Young, of this city, was sum-
moned to wait on the women, but
could not say whether they had been
poisoned or not. He procured some
of the meal with the intention of
having it analysed, but found that
it would cost too much.

Fourth of July Echoes.

The crowd which turned out at
the Germania park on Friday night
to witness thgfreworks display and
to attend the ball was tremendous
one, out of all proportions to that
which was on the grounds during
the day. The heat kept them away
during the day, but by 6 o'clock in
the evening the park began to
swarm with humanity. The fire
works began about $50 o'clock and
lasted for an hour. The display
was brilliant one, and parties liv-
ing five and six miles in the country
who came to town the next day said
they saw the Examinations distinctly.
Owing to inexperlence in handling
the fireworks, Mr.. E. G. Langham-
mer, Emil Eversberg and two others
got their hands considerably burnt
and the fireworks went off slow for a
while. The ball began at $50
o'clock and passed off satisfactorily
to everybody, and everything was
done in order. The floor committee
was composed of Messrs. f. Dobert,
R. Strickert, L. DUR and c. w.
Winkelmann. The prizes for the
best drilled soldiers i'll the two COM
panies were won by Chas. Halenza
of the Field Artillery, and Hugh
Robertson, of the Light Guard.
The Germania society comes out
from $50 to S75 behind on the cele-
bration, which is due to the great
liberality of the managers shown in
various ways. Ball tickets were
only so cents. when 81 is the regu-
lar price, and the managers were
also liberal in extending the age OF
children to Is years, for whom nc
admission was charged. There
were no disturbances OF fights OF
disorder of any kind during the day
or at night.

Caldwell, July 4, 1899.

Caldwell, July 4, 1899.
EDITOR BANNER: 1 find in your is
sue of this week two errors in re-
gard to the case of Jase Murphy.
In one paragraph you state that I
believed Murphy to be insane. This
is mistake. 1 have no belief about
it; but there has simply arisen in my
mind some doubt as to his sanity,
and giving him the benefit >of it, 1
have been instrumental in having the
execution postponed in order that
such proceeding as the law author
ICES may be had to determine his
sanity, (See Code Grim. proc. Art.
949-to $500.
In another paragraph you state
that the dispatch of the governor re-
spiting Murphy came to the sheriff
at the scaffold in the nick of time to
save Murphy's neck. This is anoth-
er mistake. The dispatch came
about 1:30 p. m, before the sheriff
had started with the prisoner to the
scaffold, which was Z of mile of,
and the death warrant gave the
sheriff until o'clock to execute it.

Festivities at the Germania.

How it was Celebrated in Brenham----
Festivities at the Germania.
The fourth of July was probably
more universally observed in Bren-
ham this year than it ever has been
before, but still there was not a
very large turnout. The military
salute was fred at 6 o'clock accord
ing to program, but there was no
great stir on the streets until two or
three hours later. The Light
Guard band appeared on the streets
about 8 o'clock and discoursed sew
eral fine selections of music. The
procession was advertised to start at
10 o'clock, but the weather was SO
warm that 1t was difficult to get the
crowd together. 1t was twenty
minutes after 10 o'clock before the
procession started and was formed
as follows: BRENNAN Light Guard
band, the Brennan Light Guard,
Brennan fire department, the Ger
mania society, carriages containing
Mayor wilkins, ". ". Searcy, Esq,
orator of the day, Beauregard
Bryan, Esq, and Brennan Field Ar
tillery. The procession marched
once around the courthouse square
and out to the Germania park. The
morning was devoted to king shoot
ing by the Germania rifle club
After dinner there was an address
by Hon. W. W. Searcy, the orator Of
the day, and children's games later
in the evening. The shooting by
the Brennan gun club was over al
the old fairgrounds and drew 3
large crowd away from the park
The fireworks and grand ball tool
place at night. The celebration
was not as large an affair as wa:
expected and there were not many
people in from the country. Every
thing. however. passed off quite sat
isfactorily and the day was quite
! well observed.
