Fer Practicing Law and Not Paying Their
Occupation Tax.
Special to the Gazette.
HILLsBoRo, TEX, Nov 26.-Tnere is
quite commotion in legal circles here to-
day The recent grand jury indicted Z
number of lawyers for practicing law and
not paying an occupation tax. The follow
ing prominent gentlemen were arrested by
Sheriff Cox and gave bond in the sum of
500 each, with the following as security,
to appear at next term of court: T. H
Dixon, H. W. Carter and L. a. Tucker
security; Thomas Ivy, county attorney,
George l. Jordan and W. G.. Duncan secur-
ity. Capiases have been issued for several
others, but owing to one OF the most promi-
nen5 being in Dallas, and the sheriff having
not yet been able to serve papers on the
others. their names are withheld. Two
have, since the grand jury found the bills,
ccme forward and paid up. This, OF course,
dismiSses their cases.

 It has been often declared that railroad cars aid in spreading pulmonary diseases by means of the bacili coming from con- sumptive passengers, which lodge in the dust of the cars. According to the exper- iments of Dr. W. Prausnity, German physician, this danger, however, is not so great as many would have us believe. A few months ago the doctor, with the aid of a patent instrument, collected large qusn- titles of dust from the floors, walls and cushions of cars which had been used by consumptives on the journey from Berlin to Italy. This dust was injected under the skins of seventeen guinea pigs. The animals were killed ten weeks later. Twelve of them, upon examination, were found to be entirely healthy, while only five showed slight symptoms of tuberou- losis AS confinement undoubtedly affect ed the lungs of the animals the doctor comes to the conclusion that the railroad oars, if properly cleaned at the end of each journey, will play no part in spreading the disease of consumption.

 When the colony was first projected it may be expected that Ole Bull had a great many friends who wished him unbounded prosperity and success. From these friends came to the colonists donations of mAohin- cry, appliances, stock, etc. A notable gift was from Henry Clay, the distinguish Ken tuckian, who sent a number of fine Ken lucky cattle and horses from his fine place st Ashland.

That Summer Young Man.

He is an awfully nice boy, says Ruth Ashmore in the Ladies' Home Journal. He may wear very gogeous blazer, and he may talk athletics in the afternoon and sentiment at night, but he is off for va cation. Won't you just remember that. You are pretty girl and a bright girl, and he likes to laugh and talk with you, take you out rowing, teach you to play tennis, and at night sit on the veranda and tell you how a man really can love. All of this is delightful. But will you please be good enough to remember that love worth having does not come in week or a month, and that in his watch case there may be the face of a girl whom he loves with all heart, and whom he thinks about every night before he closes his eyes. You are just part of his vacation and won't you be wise enough to make him part of yours! If, when his vacation is over, he should come to your house, what was mere ly summer acquaintance may ripen into a friendship. Well, that's another thing. But just for the sunshiny time don't allow yourself to think too much about what the summer young man says or does.

THE SCHOOL ELECTION.

The school election is not far off. It takes place Monday, September 21, and there really seems to be a little interest in the matter. Messrs. Strong, Leigh and O'Brien are the members of the board whose terms expire this year. It has been said, and, so far as we know, not denied, that Messrs Leigh and O'Brien do not in- tend to be candidates for reelection. Perhaps, however, as the time for voting draws near they will be. We are glad to notice that Major Strong is willing to serve the district for another term. He the board has had. He has great deal of common sense, strong spirit of fairness, is prompt in decision, and doesn't think as much of red tape as he does of getting He is so valuable to the district that his retirement would be misfortune.
 If MT. Leigh intends to retire the sug gestion that he be succeeded by MT. Pierce N. Welch is Q good one. MT. Welch is graduate of Yale, a thorough huu ou1ClouU DuSluoSS ludl duu DnhhCl, knows the needs of the schools, and is we'll qualified to be useful and careful member of the board. We do not know that he could be persuaded to become a candidate, but we hope that he can be if the situation is such as to make his call ing and election sure.
 We must ask the Register to pardon us for smiling at the idea that the nomina- tions for members of the board of educa- tion should be made by the joint action of the Chamber of Commerce and the High School Alumni association. Why not have them made by the Ministers Meeting and the Young Mems Christian associa- tiona The way the nominations have been made is not very satisfactory, but the Reg ister's idea would not be any great i'm provement. The people ought to take more interest in school matters and have part in the nominating as well as the electing of members of the board. It speaks we'll for those who have hitherto presented candidates that they have, as a rule, presented such good ones.

A Man Who Would Not Re King.

ltTOm lu6 LOuuOu lcleSAdpu.l
 After lifes ftful fever, Jules Gros, journalist, composer of comic songs, and some time president of the shadowy re- public of Guiana, in South America, has died at Vanves, a southeastern suburb of Paris. Gros was an indefatigable globe trotter, and in the course of his peregri- nations had taken notes which, when pub lished in Paris, obtained for him due re- cognition from the Geographical society. Some two years ago another wandering friend of his-M. Guignes-asked him to become monarch of slice of No Man's Land, on the borders of French Guiana and Brazil Gros refused royal honors, but declared his willingness to become president of the republic of Independent Guiana, as the small territory was pom pously called. The young republic, there fore, was started on paper; cabinet was folmed, M. Guignes being appointed prime minister and Order of the Star of Cou- mani WIS instituted. Meanwhile protests were raised against the proceedings of the would-be founders of 0 new common wealth by the Brazilian and Dutch govern ments. Gros was ordered to give up his presidency by the French minister for foreign affairs and to return home He did so, and whatever semblance of re- public was left to the natives of Indepen- dent Guiana, or Counani, was carried on 1 by M. Guignes, who organized 8 cabal against his old friend and chief. Gros, however, did not give up his dreams of ambition, and succeeded, it is said, in ob. taining the assistance of some English spectators, who offered to reinstate him Embarking once more for Guiana in 6 British vessel, Gros, after a voyage to the West Indies, was taken back to Europe. He returned to Paris and settled down in his little house at Vsnves, where he hss now died, in his sixty year.
