TEXT book BILL.

1t has been discovered, says the
Austin special in Thursdays papers,
that the unifessh school book bill
has been killed outright in its en-
rollment, the enactlng clause re-
CURED by the constitution, having
been omitted. Senator Page, the
author of the bill, had the enacting
clause in it, and subsequently when
Supt Prichett had the engrossed
copy copied the enacting clause was
still in it. 1t seems that the omis-
sion was made in enrolling the bill,
and thorough Investigation will
follow.
The discovery caused a consider
able sensation. None of the state
officials mad noticed the omission,
and the discovery was only made
when 1t was being copied for the
printer.
It is an open question whether
the book trust knew of the omission,
as it is said that they have been as
serene as If they had been the vic
tors, while their opposition before
its passage was represented by as
adroit lobby as ever brought rail
road legislation.
This bill was a good one, one de.
manded by the state and that it
shobld have been defeated in this
way is a matter of regret, and a mis-
take so serious in its consequences
that a very thorough examination
into the matter should be made and
the blame, if any, be saddled upon
whoever is responsible for its death
by the omission.

IT is said that so many Italians
are leaving Italy for America that
the authorities there would gladly
check the movement if they could.
America would no doubt cooperate
with them in preventing the class
that cause trouble in this county
from coming over and is making an
effort in that direction now.

A SPECIAL to the Post from Waco
says that Hal Hunter, charged with
the murder of one of his fathers

to many who heretofore have sup

that Rockefeller, Gould and Aston

they will coincide with US.

DYNAMITE is playing a part in en-
phasing the dissatisfaction of labor
arraYed against capital in

a miner who refused to join
the strikers had his house COM

Liege, the explosion of which

WILLIAM JACQUES, an American
citizen, of Newton, Mass, has been
mobbed in Florence, Italy. The
state department is quiet and unex-
cited about it. He was travelling
over there with his family for pleas
ure. He was formerly a professor
of John Hopkins University and is
said to be a quiet, unassuming gen
tleman. Italy is perhaps trying to
get even for the loss of her eleven
New Orleans bandits. Minister
Porter will perhaps send particulars
IN due course of time. Italy and
the United may keep on monkeying
with each other until they have a
little scrap.

EXCHANGED Signs.

Attorney Pomeroy sprung the following
story upon a group of eager listeners in
Max Reeses the other night;
you remember Al. HuntziDger, who
kept n restaurant under the Egan building
some years ago. Well, he ran in hard luck
towards the close of his business career"
Did they boycott him ?''
1T wasn't that. 1t was the fearful want
of education among the lower classes that
worked the injury. One day he hired al
fat old tramp who looked like load OF
hay on legs as walking ady rtisement
and had him float around town carrying ii
sign lotereG
Il LUNCH AT HUN1z1NGERs.
"Great ides thstl WeuY'
"Wel, it worked due, and then he struck
another bum-weigbing about eighty-fve
pounds-regula living skeleton, and hired
him to carry a sign lottered
"'I DON T LUNCH ATHUNTzINGERs
big schgme"
Yes" continued Pomeroy, as he struck
match to light his cigar. THE scheme
was all right, but pretty soon business go'
TO be terribly bad. Huntznger couldn't
understand it until one day he came across
the sandwich man. 1t seems that neither
of the old FOUNDERS could read"
"Bgt what did that.
They had changed signs. See2"

MURDERED BY ROBBERS.
THREE CHILDREN X

THREE CHILDREN KILLED-THE
MOTHER FATALLY WOUNDED.
Josua, Johnson County, Texas, July
l6.-Ye terdsy morning at l o'clock
two men went to the home of George
Newberry living two miles west of
JOsua, and demanded admittance.
Mr.. Newberry being absent, his mother
supposed that it was he returning, and
and opened the door. The men forced
their way into the house and demanded
money that they supposed had been
received by Mr., Newberry few days
previously. Mrs. Newberry told them
she had no money about the house.
They grabbed the woman, who is sixty
five years old, took her to the yard gate,
tied her with a rope to the post, and
then cut her throat.
One man remained with the woman
on the outside, while the other went
into the house, where three children
were sleeping. The oldest, a child of
seven years, was awakened when the
man came in. The man asked where
her fathers money was. The child
told him she would tell her father of
MS llJ JiuB W BNb hAo AhOhNJs IAO
took her out of the house into the ward
and cut her throat with a butchers s
knife. He then went back into the
house and got the second little girl,
aged five years, carried her to the yard
and cut her throat with the same knife.
He went back again, got the baby, a
boy of two years, and killed him in
the same manner and piled the bodies
together. The murderer washed the
knife and left it lying on the table,
The wOman's neck has seventeen
gashes, but she is still living and gave
full account of the affair. 1t Is sup
posed that the murders were for the
purpose of robbery, as Newberry had
Just got 5000 damages from the Santa
Fe Railroad Company. Mrs. New
berry is still alive, but cannot live. Of
ficers are securing the country for the
murderers.

Terrible Tragedy in New Orleans.
In O"tober last, Chief of Police Hen
Messy, of New Orleans, was waylaid
and killed about ii o'clock at night as
he was about entering bis residence.
Great excitement followed throughout
the city, and steps were taken to ferret
out the assassins. The result of the
search disclosed enough evidence to JUS
tify the belief that the deed was done
by members of an Italian secret order
known as Malta, an importation from
Southern Italy. AS a result seventeen
Italians were arrested, and the proof
apparently convincing that their order
that the deed had been executed by
members of it. The trial was concluded
last week, after IL ten days session of the
Court, and the jury failed to find a YER
dict of guilty. The people became very
much incensed a public meeting was
called, signed by some of the most rep
utable citizens, and it was attended by
from 5000 to 5000. Addresses We're
made by lawyer Parkinson and lawyer
Wickliffe in calm and dignified yet de-
termined words, and when they had
concluded column was formed and
moved to the place where the accused
were confined. 1t did not take much
parleying or discussion to indicate their
purpose. They were armed with pistols
and rifles and huge sticks of tin Der as
battering rams, and in very few min
utes the doors were broken down, and
then the work of death commenced.
Eleven of the prisoners We're killed IN a
very few minutes. Some we're shot to
death in their cells; two were taken out
and hung: and one or two were dubbed
to death. After the massacre, the order
was given to the crowd to reform and
march to the Clay monument, where
= they at first assembled. When there
they were again addressed and advised
to quietly return to their homes and
places of business, which order was
promptly obeyed. The occurrence took
place at 10 O'Clock, and before evening
all seemed TO be qriet. All the organ
lied boards in the city met in their re-

su staining the action of the citizens and
gave notice that the Malta must be sup
pressed or obliterated at all hazards.
1t is alleged, in justification OF the
murder of these eleven prisoners, that
their acquittal was he result OF jury
fixing, or that of fear on the part OF the
Jury that if they brought in a verdict OF
guilty, they, too would become the vic
Tins of the Malta and dealt with as
Chief of Police Hennessey had been.
Ii was this belief and fear that, it is
claimed, brought about the mistrial, and
it was to deal out the justice that the

the matter in hand. and SO snmmarily
