A Little ROMANTIC.

This forenoon Z young man Of about
twenty-slx walked into the governors office
ana asked TO make a statement. Governor
Hogg said he would hear him. The visitor
then went on 10 say that ten years ago he
was convicted OF theft and sent to the peni-
Tertiary for two years. The theft consisted
in stealing about $4,000 from the paymaster
of the International and Great Northern
railroad, near Laredo. the money being aft
erwards recovered. Hiying an opportunity
he snatched the pile and ran.
After spending a year In the pen1ten-
tiary, or rather on convict train, he ran
away. Was never recaptured. Lately he
was in the employ of the Dallas Street-car
company and became engaged to Il young
woman, to whom he revealed the story of
his convict life. She insisted that before
marrying him he must return TO the penl-
Tertiary and serve out his term. To please
his fiancee and TO ease his conscience he now
begged to be returned to the penitentiary.
During the recital of his story he broke
down and cried like a child. The governor
was not sure for awhile whether he was
not touched slightly in the upper story, and
sent him to tell his story to the penitentiary
board. then in session. 1t was finally con-
cluded that the man was sane and honest,
and the governor asked the board to verify
his statements from the prison records,
assured him that ten years of honest work
and upright behavior had accomplished as
complete reformation in him as series
of Sam Jones' sermons would have done,
and that if his story was true he would
remit the balance of his sentence and send
him back to his sweetheart freedman.
The board fully concurred in the mag
unanimous expression of the governor. Inc
penitent has gone under the name of Hale,
but says that his right name is j. c. Hill.
He was allowed to go free until the prison
records shall be examined.

Texans at the Capital.
Special to the Gazette.


WASHINGTON, Nov 1S-The Texas col
ony in Washington has increased consider
ably of late years. The civil service act
has been no small factor in bringing about
this influx of Lone Star people. since it
provides for q pro-rata representation among
the states of employees in the various gov
ornamental departments. A goodly number
of young Texans of both sexes have by
passing the examinations successfully,
either in some home city or at the capital
secured positions under the government,
ranging in salary from $500 to $1,000 per
year.
Not long since it was determined to form
for social ENJOYMENT a society OF Texans
temporarily soJourning here. Commodious
quarters were rented and the outlook for q
permanent organization IS very fiattering.
The members concluded that the title,
Lone Star Society," was both patriotic
and euphonious, and so it was christened.
Herewith are the officers and members,
though dozen more joined at a recent
meeting whose names are not included:
W. j. r. ThonsSen, president, Houston;
Henry Floyd, vice-president, F'rio county;
S. Z. Tracy, corresponding secretary,
Houston G. e. Brown, recording secreta-

hold of an electric battery that you can't
turn loose" This part OF Wardell's re-
marks related to the current belief that
McAllister's protest would charge Z. w.
Macune and other leaders with wholesale
bribery and corruption.
Burkett of Mississippi closed the debate
in behalf of the motion to table. The vote
was finally taken on Col. Livingston's mo-
ton to appoint committee of five to con-
slider the protest. which prevailed by a two
thirds majority. President Polk then ap-
pointed the committee, with Livingston as
chairman.
Having disposed of this unpleasant mat
ter, the convention Immediately forestalled
the prospective complaint by adopting a
resolution to stand by the sub-treasury
plan. The disposition of the supreme coun-
Gil toward the anti-sub-treasury committee
was pretty clearly indicated IN the letterits
committee sent in reply to that of McAlllS-
ter and his followers. The letter IS as fol-
lows:
Messrs. Hall. McAllister and Others.
GENTLEMEN-Growingo out of your appli-
cation before the supreme council to be
heard in regard to certain grievances or
complaints before that body committee
was appointed to confer and with power to
hear the report to tue supreme council.
Therefore YOU are invited to appear
before that committee at room %,

Answer at 30, said hotel.
(Signed) L. T. LIVINGSTON,
Chairman for the committee.
At that hour Messrs. McAllister, Yea
man and Gates, of the anti-sub-treasury
committee, were met by the committee from
the supreme council, consisting of Living
ston of Georgia, Beck of Alabama, House
holder of Kansas. Tracy of Texas and Can
non of California. DIR. Yeaman opened
the discussion as follows:
Mr. CHAIRMAN-On the 18th of Septem-
Der last the convention of antl-sub-treaSury
men of the Farmers Alliance assembled in
the city of ST. Louis. That convention
after two days deliberations appointed
committee of gentlemen to memorabilia the
supreme council by way of a protest against
certain principles and demands of the
Ocala meeting of the council That
committee requested me to draw
up and present that protest, and now in
spirit of fraternity l am here in the dis
charge of that duty. We await the pleasure
of the committee over which you preside"
The committee of the council then asked
for the reading of the protest which was
done by DR.. Yeaman. The reading occupied
several minutes, at the conclusion of which
Col. Livingston said: Now, when you
break down our belief, you must offer
substitute. and whaJ do you proposel'
Chairman McAliister said that his com
mittee were not empowered to frame plat
form, but that they could readily improve
on the measures against which they are here
to protest.
Col Livingston then suggested that Dr.
Yeaman appear before the national Ali
ance tomorrow night and present the pro-
test and elaborate rs he desired, with
the understanding, ovyver, that a hay
seeder'' be allowed u teply. This was ac-
cepted by the subcommittee, whereupon
the joint session terminated, best Of feeling
prevailing.

The Murder of Willie Carey.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
PARIS, TEX, Nov. 1S.-About the only
item of interest in Paris to-day was the
trial of the notorious Bill Hudgins, leader
of the gang bearing his name, on the charge
of numbering Willie Carey at Fred, l. T.,
on September 30, 1890 Hudgins is not over
twenty-three and indeed the oldest member
of the gang is not past thirty. The story
of the crime as told on the stand by Mr.
James Carey is that about dark on the eve
ming of September 80, as they were getting
ready to close for the night, three men with
pistols presented suddenly entoeed the store
and commanded the Careys and their clerk
to hold up their hands. The order was
promptly obeyed and the robbers, who were
not masked, searched the premises and per-
SONS of the occupants and took all the money
they could get. Some clothing and other
goods were also taken. The leader stepped
to the safe and took out bunch of papers
and being told by James Carey that they
were of no value except to the firm, he re-
placed them and the bold robbers left the
house. As they did so Will Carey, the
younger of the two brothers, rushed into a
small room where 4 gun was kept. the
act was noticed and as he appeared again
in the door of the room a shot in the breast
from the leader of the gang ended his life.
The jury was impanneled and the testi-
mony of James Carey taken. The trial will
be concluded tomorrow and the case turned
over to the Jury.

National Republican Committee.

Special to the Gazette
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1s.-Next to the
speakcrsLip contest the most absorbing
topic is the meeting of the national Repub
licau committee, TO be held here next Mon
day. The most important business before
the committee is the selection of the city
in which the national con yention is to be
held next May. New York, San Fran
cisco, Chicago, Minneapolis, Omaha,
St. Louis, Cincinnati and Pittsburg
are all striving for the honor. Work for
New York is being done effectively. The
friends of the metropolis are claiming that
twenty-one OF the necessary twenty-siX
votes for choice have been pledged in her
favor. DR.. Depew will head a delegation
will be opposed by NJ. II. DeYouag
of San Francisco, the Pacific coast repre-
sentative in the committee. and Il hustler
for the Golden Gate. He promises the dele
gates everything but sleep if they come out
there. Chicago is after the convention Is
usual, and has Senators Paddock and Man
derson working tooth and nail for her.
Cincinnati is being backed by Secretary
Foster. Pittsburg offers her services
as the birthplace of the party,
and suggests that if the organlZa-
ton desires to be born again
it had better select the city of natural gas
and big iron output. The contest is be-
lieved to be between Cincinnati, Chicago
and New York. Ii has been suggested that
New York make q similar effort for the
Democratic national convention, and the
advice will probably be accepted. An
other piece of advice has been
ventured to the effect that Tammany
had better keep the convention out of the
city, for if the delegates get a glimpse of
New Yoril's starets as an evidence of Tam
many rule they will go to California for u
presidential candidate before they would
risk one from the Empire state.

Will Remain in the Cabinet.

The idea that Attorney General Miller
would quit the cabinet this winter for the
bench seems to be losing ground among the
best informed Republicans. They think
that with Taft for sollcitor-general the
president is willing to keep Miller where
he is for the present. In the course Of
another year undoubtedly Justice Bradley
will leave the supreme court. and then
there will be place ready for Miller to step
into better than anything there is TO offer
him now. In conversation with d friend
not long ago, the president remarked
that he had reluctance to take any
officer away from a place in which
ne seemed to fit pretty well
and transfer him to Another merely for the
benefit the change would work in the for
tunes or comfort of the man himself, no
matter how worthy of favor he might be.
1t is probably this reluctance which pre-
vented Solicitor Hepburn from going into
the interstate commerce commission,
although his last and professional expe-
rience pointed strongly in that direction.

Texas Notes.

Texas is well represented in the Journal
istic field here. O'Brien Moore, who was
formerly managing editor of the Galveston
News,is at the head of the st. Louis Repub
lie bureau. and is recognized as one of the
ablest and best informed correspondents at
the capital He has been an unsparing
critic of the Harrison administration, and
his fierce roasting of Corporal Tanner
and his successor, Green B. Raum. has
opened the eyes of the nation to the cor
rupt management Of the pension Office. Mr..
Moore is married to one of Texas most
charming and cultured daughters, who as
Miss Jenkins was a leading belle of the
Island City. Another wielder of tren-
chant pen is Col. William G. Sterrett, who
of yore did editorial paragraphing on the
Dallas News, and who is known in every
nook and corner OF the state. He is very
popular on Newspaper row." and the boys
no longer poke fun at him for his devotion
to bicycle riding. Col William, to use
slang phrase, is stuck on the town, and the
chances are that he will remain on the row
for many year to come.

Speakership Betting.

Texas congressman are generally among
the last to arrive in advance of the opening
of congress, and except Col. Mills and Hon.
w. II. Grain, none of them have been here
for several months. Those who do not
bring their families usually stop at the
Metropolitan hotel, which is downtown
house long celebrated as rendezvous for
Southerners. Its proprietor, Col. Selby, is
a Virginian and formerly conducted the
kimball house at Atlanta On account OF
the great patronage from Dixie the Metro
politan has frequently been sneeringly al
iuded to as rebel headquarters, but that
designation has in no wise affected its popu-
larity.
What little betting there is here on the
speakership is Indicative that Col. Mills Is
regarded as by far the strongest candidate.

AUSTIN. TEX, Nov 1S.-The penitnntiary
position to buy the Rogers farm. but struck
L snag in constituting part of the contract
between the board and Mr.. Rogers. The
board claims that in buying the farm,
which it works on the shares, it is entitled
to the full crop grown this year. Mr.
Rogers holds that the board should get
only its share, which is one-half of the cror.
The total output is about l25 bales of cot
ton and 1000 bushels OF corn. The differ
ence between him and sthe board is there
fore about $4,000. He will probably make
another offer proposiI. to surrender his
share in the corn and in about $50 bales Of
cotton yet unpicked Considering the anX-
iety of the board to buy the farm at the
price. $4,000, the trade will probably be
consun.mated before an adjournment.

On the contrary, the grocers have avowed
their intention of going before the grand

that in very short time the majority of

BERLIN, Nov 1S.-The German war
Office has ordered that a large number of
portab tents be manufactured for the use

protection Of the troops from inclement

possible to quarter large bodies of troops,
and the war Office is therefore only taking
proper measures of precaution TO care for
the soldiers should war break out.
