Excursion Notes.
 Much of the success of theJuvenile Tenn plars excursion was due to the untiring efforts of Mrs. Whistler, whose unweary- ing efforts have been attended by indispo- sition, of which happily she is improving. She seemed to be everywhere at once and in promotion of the success of the occasion and never ceased until the whole party had reached home and the responsibilities were over.

Home From Texas.

AOAAAO N AOAAA A CASSs
 Rev. Wolff Willner of Houston, Texas, is spending this week in New Haven with his venerable father, the Rabbi S. H. Willner, of the William street synagogue. He speaks very highly of his present home, to which he will return next Tuesday, and speaks enthusiastically about the pros poets, climate and people of Texas. Hous- ton claims about 10000 inhabitants, has all modern conveniences and nothing that makes life enjoyable need be missed there. The public school system is very good one, the course of instruction extending over eleven years, 'sfnot minute of which is wasted" They have excellent school accommodations and splendid teachers there. The grammar school buildings are in very good condition, and the eduoa- hon Houstonians can avail themselves of is of high order.
 Thirteen railroad lines lead into the city, which is one of the most important cotton centers of the country. The cotton ex- change is an imposing building and lum- Der exchange is now being erected for the large timber interests of that region of the state. Rev. .Willner thinks Houston good place for factories to locate. There are so many eastern manufacturers who sell a large part of their goods in the west that should they come out there they would of course save transportation expense. From Houston their wares can be shipped by rail to any part of the country and via Buffalo river to the ocean. The employees could live out there much more cheaply. Rents are not progressively high, each man has plenty of room about his cottage in which he can keep his COW and his hog, farm products are very cheap, and all in all it is one of the most desirable places to live in that he knows of.
 Rabbi Willner says that during the ten months of his stay in Houston he made many friends, which statement all who know him here will gladly believe. He will preach in his fathers synagogue on Saturday morning, and leave the city on Monday to return to bis charge,

He had made a rope from his shirt, and fastened it to an iron staple in his cell, and was dis covered hanging thereto and cut down. He is the most troublesome prisoner at the jail. Turnkey Hotchkiss seems to have great power over him, and generally sub dues him, although once he used stream of city water from hose as argument The man is evidently either insane or mak- ing most wonderful feint at being so.
