SULPHUR SPRINGS, HOPKINS COUNT,
TEx.> July 2s.-The immense crowd was
| greatly increased by visitors fl IN ten or
| more surrounding counties. Some more OF
| the prominent speakers came in on the
| trains tonight.
Last night Senator PETER, who so sue
cese ully showed ingalls, under in Kansas,
spoke to multitude of attentive hearers on
the financial:question. He showed up all the
Is the people are suffering from, and was
cheered many times. His talk ran as do
most OF them, leaving the impression that
the Democratic party is wholly responsible
for all these evils. He announced that he
would speak to-day on the money question.
At 10 a. N. the crowd had gathered, and
after few remarks by Mr.. c. a. Power of
Indiana, the band struck up that old familiar
tune Dixie " which brought from some of
the Northern laborites very peculiar smiles
and deafening yellS from the big crowd.
Then Senator PETER of Kansas was brought
forward and, according TO his announce
ment, made review of his able talk of last
evening, dwelling particularly on money,
more money, and how to get it. BY an ac-
cur tie calculation, as he called IL, MIR.
Pet1er showed an amount of $50, 000 900 out
of C 'culation that should be among the peO-
pie, and he guaranteed his thousands of
hearers that # the next congress would
give this amount to the people in circula-
no.. lhlS Efeat move OF Inc People party
would be suspended and all go home in
peace, perfectly satisfied. Otherwise the
work would be vigorously pushed on to
success. Loud cheers.
He assured the people that they would
get all they asked for if they only stoutly
contend for it. He said the Peoples party
was moving onward with the momentum of
the Alpine avalanche with victory on its
banner. The third party is in the harness,
and if the old parties don't join the new,
they will be wiped out entirely. for c are
in the middle of the road and the old parties
must come out of the old ruts. One thing
sure, we will never come to them. My Re
publican friends, ii you want to wipe out
the old Democratic party you come to US
and we guarantee it will be done at the
twinkling of an eye, or vice versa. II the
silver and Mckinley bills are defeated, and
1 believe they will be, the Republican party
will never have another president or Il con
gress. ] tell you, my fellow citizels and
brothers, the Republican party is being
buried and the Democratic party is pur-
chasing its burial suit. They both have the
dry rot and must be put out of the way
where decent politics can't absorb any of
the old scent.
He touched tie sub-treasury plan, but did
not dwell very long.

Special to the Gazette.


Waco, TEX, July 2S-THE GAZETTE has
nublished considerable about the contest be-
tween the officers of Bosque and McLennan
counties for the person of j. L. Scott,
charged with false conversion of a mule
while acting as bailee for Brandon Nlimns,
then confined in the Jail Of McLennan
county. Scott was .gosafnsd TO. defend
Minms, who turned over a g4nuls5to linn to

Mimuis. p. o. Douglas, best friend of
Mimms, made Complaint charging that
Scott SC q. the mule. appropriated the pr
ceedS to his own use and failed in his duty
as a lawyer in Niinms' behalf. \ warrant
was issued FOR the arrest Of scott, who
Gvedin Bosque county, by Justice j. n.
Gallagher and sent TO Sheriff Donnell of the
latter county, who claimed it was a faulty
instrument and refused TO execute it. For
this refusal Justice Gallagher entered Il
fine of SIS against the sheriff for contempt
of court After this Donnel arrested
Scott, but instead of returning him TO this
county allowed him to apply for a writ of
habeas corpus, after hearing which Judge
Hall remanded Scott to the custody Of he
McLennan county officers. Scott was
brought here and allowed bond.
Sheriff Donnell did not offer to pay his
fine or to make answer in court why ne
Should not be fined, after being notified to
do So and an additional fine of 800 was
assessed against him. a capias pro fnem

has him under actual. bona tide arrest. If
it is not promptly paid, Constable Womack
says he will be down with him. The
possession of defendant in this case is
.'actual,'' and not constructive. Respect
fully, H. S. DILLARD,
County Attorney OF Bosque County.
1t is very interesting case all the way
through, and has caused the officers of This
county not little trouble, involving a trip
to Bosque county to appear as witnesses.
The county attorney of Bosque intimates
in his postal that he has one fearless officer
in his county, and it is now believed the
state of Texas will be repaid, by collecting
a fine, for the trouble caused by Sheriff
Donnel in refusing to execute papers placed

SPEAKING in eulogy OF ex-President
Cleveland, Governor Russell of Massa-
chusetts exclaimed: Massachusetts
believes in a sound currency. She will
not lend her aid to any movement,
whatever may be its scarce, and how
ever honest may be its purpose. which
in its results would debase our cur
rency or impair values and give to
labor in depr eciated money less than
its gust dues" That is good doctrine.
We ali believe in a sound currency.
The West believes in sound currency
as we'll as Massachusetts,, and in plenty
of it. Therefore the West, with the
South to assist, will demand that silver
shall be made as sound currency as
gold by the enactment of laws to put it
on an equality with gold. And the
West and the South will have some
thing to say in the running of this
country hereafter.

Several Houses Blown Down and Beec
injured Near Wichita Falls 81
Sunday Last.
Special to the Gazette.


WICHITA FALLS, WICHITA COUNTY, TEX,
July 27.-Quite gale of wind, accompanied
by rain, passed over our city about o'clock
yesterday afternoon, which it is reported
blew down about three houses on Holiday
creek just before entering the city. 1t
seems that two small tornadoes came, meet
ing each other, one coming up Duck creek
and the other coming down Holiday. and
met about a mile south of the city at house
occupied by Mr.. ]. T. Lee and his family.
The house was blown literally to pieces,
and two children of the family of Mr. ]. w.
Rogers, who were visiting the Lees, were
badly hurt, and one of them is not expected
TO survive the injury. 1t was reported that
!. boy nine years old was instantly killed in
one of the other houses blown down, but
there is not yet confirmation of the report.
The Lee family whose house was blown
down yesterday seem to bAsunfortunate, as
the house they oceupie6ssas May was
wrecked by storm. No damage was done
in toYh yesterday by the young tornado.

Last Sunday morning at Methodist camp
meeting some five miles west of Holans-

man standing by caught the ak and pre-
vented what would otherwise have been a
fatal difficulty. Watkins and wife had been
married several years, but had not had a
difficulty or serious quarrel before. The
only cause assigned for the attack Sunday
morning was an insane and unjustifiable
jealousy. Watkins escaped and has not yet
been captured.
