DESIRE A MILITARY POST.

Mr.. Ed a Scott has lived in a section of
Texas that is virtually unknown to the pub
lie ut larCe-a section which is looked upon
rs Il lawless plain where death turks in
every bush. His home is Sandcrson. Pecos
county. which IS o town Of some three or
four hundred inhabitants The southern
portion of Pecos county is entirely 4 stock
country. but the northern portion of the
county IS composed of agricultural land
rich and aluyial soil, and the county is the
second largest in the state. Speaking of
the stock industry, Mr.. Scott stated that
the stockmen devoted the most of their
time TO sheep; that the large valleys of lux
uriant grass were the finest pastural land
in the state, and that the sheep were fat
and healthy all the year round. This in
dustrv being the chief industry of that sec
ton. Mr.. Scott also stated that scalp law
was necessary TO protect the sheep from the
mountain lions. which abound IN the south
ern portion of the county and slaughter the
sheep in large numbers. In regard TO the
lawlesSneSs of the section, Mr.. Scott said
Our county is SO tremendously large and
the population IS 50 scattered. that il is re-
ally hard duty to enforce the laws; but
we have efficient and brave officers, who
bend every effort toward preserving the
peace. OF course there are 4 few wild
characters throughout the section, but the
only real danger Of law.eSsness arises from
the raids of the MeXicanS, who cross the
river in bodies, steal cattle and commit
many atrocious crimes, retreating 10
the Mexican side as soon as
the American authorities get after them
These MeXicans are INSCRIPTIONS thieves
and mUrderers. They will numerically 3,
massacre the shepherds and cowboys. or
individuals who bar their path of plunderS
and they are becoming so numerous thai
our citizens have petitioned the Federafs
government to establish q military post
somewhere in the vicinity in order to pro-
tect the lives and property of the TexaSf
citizens. The depredations of these Me(
can scoundreIs are gradually firing up &e
emnity Of our people, and, while they are

MUST PAX A FEE.
Aspiring Young Men Who Want to Be
Lawyers and Doctors, the House Says.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
AUSTIN, TEX, April T.-Riddle's amend
ment TO the appropriation bill reducing the
fee fixed therein TO be paid by the law stu
dents at the university from $50 to $40, the
lee charged academies, called forth an IN
teresting discussion between those who be-
heved III taxing the people at large for the
purpose OF making lawyers and doctors and
those who opposed it.
Sellman thought the fee of 500 was a
wrongful discrimination against law stu
dents. whose training should be as free as
that of those IN the academy department.
Perry earnestly opposed the amendment,
holding that the state had no business edu-
eating lawyers and doctors. II did its duty
when ii furnished and equipped college
for their training.
O'Brien replied TO those sentiments, and
Dawson rebellcd against them, contend
ing that the poor young men of
the state who want to be lawyers would
be shut out of the university by the
fee proposed to be charged. Curry
thought that if lawyers were 10 be educated
free and furnished with diplomas, which
are called their stock in trade" young
men at the Agricultural and Mechanical
college should be given farms as their
stocks IN trade when leaving that irsti-
tuition.
Gresham argued that a Zee should be

for their maintenance. The sum of 500
was maximum figure beyond which the
board OF regents may not go in charging q
fee. II might be much less than that
Terrell spoke at length, defending his
position on the question of education. He
would give an elementary training 70 all,
and would have academies for the higher
education Of those able to take it, and
university Tor the graduates of the acade-
mics. He did not favor the scheme of Civ
ing On academy training to children of the
masses. IS il could only result in educating
them out Of their proper sphere, and pro
viding elements that il the future will
poster the state. He opposed the free
training By the state Of young men in the
professions.
ODlecuons had frequently been made by
the people, aud 10 persist in it would en-
danger the university itself.
The discussion, which consumed the
morning session, killed Riddles amend
ment and the young men who want to be
lawyers and doctors must pay fee for
their professional training.

AN OLD GRAVEYARD
Discovered Near Corpus Christi-supnosed

CoRPUs CHRISTI, TEx., April Sunday
while Aiesdames Bragg and Ashmore of
Corsicana were walking along the banks of
the Oso, seven miles south of town. and
about a quarter of 4 mile from the bay
coast. they discovered i lot of dried human
bones sticking cut of the ground in an old
road bed. They impaired their discovery to
Mr.. J. Q. Ayers, who lives near by, and
yesterday party returned to the spot with
picks and spades and began making excava-
tons Up TO u o'clock to-day they
had unearthed forty-eight human skele-
tons, all lying within space
100 by twelve feet square and fourteen
inches deep. The bones were greatly de-
cayed and showed that they had been there
q very great while, although it was easy
enough TO ascertain that they were human
bones, regardless of the skulls, from the
position of the hands and feet Judging
from the length of the skeletons and thick
ness of the skulls it is thought that they
We're MeXicans or Spaniards, but how they
got there and why they were crowded into
such small space is something the Oldest
Inhabitants can throw no light on. The ex
cavations will be continued, and it is prob
able that more bonec viii be unearthed.
