DEATH OF SENATOR E. G. MAE.fzE.

DEATH OF SENATOR L. G. MAEEZE.
Senator E. G. Maetze, died at his
home in Bellville at $3.50 p. m. Mon
day.
Senator Maetze was ia the 10th
year of his age.
He was often referred to in the
sessions of the Texas Legislature DIS
The Father of the Senate" so hon
ored and beloved was he. He had
many friends both in private and
public life.
Senator Maetze came to this coun-
try from Glogan, Silesia, where as
one OF the liberal patriots of the
Frankfort parliament in 1913, be
fell under political persecution,
which exiled him from his native
land. Not until about 1870 could
he venture to return, and then be
encountered a reception from hun
dreds of his former pupils, who
came forward to meet and greet him
with assurance that his liberal senti-
ment had borne fruit.
He settled in Texas at Milheim,
Austin county, establishing school
which attracted many students from
a distance, and he taught them,
more than mere knowledge from
books, the rectitude and wisdom OF
his own living being splendid ex-
ample unto them.
In his long residence III this state,
despite his modest retirement, occa-
sions arose to call him forth, and
the democratic party counted him
among the staunchest supporters Of
the doctrines of personal liberty and
honest ballot.
His oratory was. fascinating not
by its artfulness but by being al
ways direct in its address, clear in
its expression, varied in its form,
and as he never spoke except when
he had something of importance to
say, his hearers gave him their en-
tire attention. His neighbors called
upon him to speak their gladness at
festivals, their grief at great be-
reavements and finally 10 pl resent
their claims in the iegis..t.se balls
of the state.
As senator of the Twelfth district
he served two terms, being elected
as president of the senate at the re-
cent adjournment tribute to pop
ularity and confidence most crafty
ing to him. His political associates
all will miss and mourn him.
He leaves q wife and a son and
daughter by a previous marriage to
whom large circle of friends ex-
tend sincere coincidence.

EDUCATION IN THIS COUNTRY.

The census bureau has issued an
extra bulletin on education, bring
ing returns of private and iarochial
schools up to July 1, 1891. The to-
tai school enrolment reported July
l was close to II, 100000; the total
public school enrolment, including
about $4,000 IN universities, schools
for training teachers and so on,
near II, 100000: in private schools
and in parochial schools not far
from 100000 each. A table gives
the national population and school
enrolment of each decade from
1910, when the first educational CEN
sus was taken, showing a gain Of
population from 1850 to 1870 of
66.26 per cent from 1870 to 1890 of
62.4l per cent: of school enroll
menr from 1850 to 1870 of 1894 per
cent; from 1870 to 1890 1921 per
cent, indicating nearly the same re-
lations of population and school en-
rollment in each period, notwlth-
standing great local changes mean
time. In the South 21.6S per cent
of the white and Is Sc per cent of
the colored population were enrolled
in schools in the census year, while
the gain over 1880 was 1891 per
cent for the white and 61.5S per
cent for the colored. Eleven com
murions are given as maintaining
parochlal schools, the Catholics have
more than twice as many pupils as
all others, and the Lutherans about
one-ffth of the whole number. Pub
lie schools apparently have about
twelve times as many elementary
pupils as private schools, are close
to the private schools IN secondary
pupils, and have less than half as
many in superior instruction as pri-
vate institutions.
DR.. Dorchester, the superintend-
ent o. Indian schools, in giving his
estimate of the progress of Chris
hanizlng the Indians in the Dakota
says that from church authorities he
learns that the Roman Catholic In
dian population in these two states
is 4740, while from 10,5OO to 1000
are of other denominations

BASED ON NATURAL ADVANTAGES,

A HEALTY INDUSTRIAL GROWTH
BASED ON NATURAL ADVANTAGES,
The Manufacturers Record says:
'eThe steady Improvement previous
" reported in the South becomes
more pronounced every week, and,
while there are some complaints OF
inactivity at Special points, due to
local causes, the general advance
ment of the whole South shows that
this section is fast recovering from
the troubles brought on by the late
financial stringency. New enter
prises of great magnitude and of far
reaching Importance, as well as many
smaller ones, are reported in the
weeks issue of the Manufacturer
Record. Of vital interest to iron
and steelmakers everywhere is the
signing of a contract by MIR. G. P.
Huntington to build a railroad to
the great Bessemer ore district of
Llano, Texas, which Will open up a
district that is pronounced by ex-
perts to be far ahead of the Lake
Superior region in abundance of ore
and in cheapness of mining. At JEFF
ferson, in the same State, the owners
of furnace now in operation will
build steel works: Then follows a
summary of new industries which
shows how general is the improve
ment extending from Maryland to
Texas, and how widely diversified is
tho development that is now going
On, including almost every line of
manufacturing from the making of
rum out of molasses to the utilization
of Southern timbers for woodwork
ing enterprises of all kinds, and of
Southern iron ores for iron and
steel-making and of Southern tin
ores for tinplate manufacture. There
is no speculation in any of this
growth, but simply a steady sub
stantall development based on natur-
al resources"

The story of the above play briefly
outlined, which Katie Putnam viii
play at the Grand Opera House to-
night is as follows:
Gay Howard, the heroine, is an
orphan, just reached womanhood and
come in possession of a large prope
erty interests, has bestowed her afr
fections upon Frank Clifton, form
er schoolmate and her agent in the
management of the estate. RALPH
Whitmore, her cousin, hanger-on o.
her generosity and full of hope that
he would ultimately, as her husband,
live in luxury, being thwarted is
transformed into the usual type of
stage william. In his schemes to
wreck the lives of the heroine and
her accepted sultor he is well served
by Jane Bradley, a former companion
of Gay Howard, the daughter of Dan
Bradley, a noble hearted man whom
she rescued from a drunkard's fate.
The cast played is that of exciting
the heroine's jealousy, aud this is
turned into best account by bringing
the victim on the scene Just
as Clifton is paying an evening
visit to the female accomplice for the
purpose of leaving money, which thu
determined father had refused to ac-
cept, with her to encourage him In
the task of reform. The succeeding
action of this act is partSf55G6
larry strong. By design the father,
who had correctly suspected that
Whitmore had deceived his daughter
in the promise of marriage, overheard
a virtual confession that confirmed
the belief and was taking position to
STAY Clifton as he emerged from the
house, supposing it to be Whitmore,
when Gay Howard takes possession
of and controls him through a prom

INDUSTRIAL ADVANCEMENT.

The Manufacturers Record says
Looking uy the entire South, il
is seen that there is very decided
improvement taking place, and that
this section, ike the rest of the
country, is rapidly recovering from
the effect of tue panic. The people
of tue Souh are taking hold OF in
dustrial enterprise with renewed
vigor, while there is an increasing
movement of outside capital seek
ing investment in this region. Man
ufacturing enterprises are well en-
ployed, railroads are busy, trade is
increasing, collections are getting
easier, and all signs indicate that
the South as a whole is entering
upon period of much prosperity.
The list of new enterprises organ
lied continues to increase from week
to week, and summary of the lead
ing ones reported in this weeks is
sue of the Manufacturers Record
shows how decided the improvement
is. This summary, which does not
include ali of the enterprises in one

this increasing activity, and how
great is the diversity of the new en-
terprises now beng undertaken. It
gives some idea, moreover, of what
may be expected later on, after the
crops have been gathered and sold
and money becomes more active in

HOME INDUSTRIES.

Stand by your home industries is
the advice given by far away but
none the less sensible exchange.
Patronize them: encourage them by
word and deed. Support those you
have and hustle for more. If you
have subscribed for stock in new
enterprise, pay for it like a man.
Don't injure your individual reputa-
ton and that of the town by refus-
ing, on some pretext, to fulfill your
promise, If all should follow your
example what would become OF the
industries which are the life-blood
of a community? The company has
based It's estimates upon the sub
seriptions of yourself and others.
Refusals to pay means delay, litiga-
ton, expense, perhaps the death of a
promising industry, which would
have benefited the entire city. Again
we say, stand by your industries.
