that he was whipped. There is a striking
similarity between his timely retreat then
and now OF course ne had to attend to
other and far more pressing business then,
as he has now. He had to look out for
number one. It was question of making
600 at st. Louis in a railroad deal, and
that was matter of far greater concern to
him than staying at home to fight Jim Hogg,
especially so when Jim had him down and
was ready to dance a fandango on his pros
trate form. He seems to be very lucky in
having business elsewhere when he finds a
change of ain desirable.
1t is admitted now on all hands that un
less Messrs. Alexander and Robinson have
much stronger evidence in reserve than any
they have produced, they have a very poor
case upon their own showing. What it will
be when the other side is heard from can
only be guessed at. 1t promises, however.
to be quite interesting, and the probabilities
are that the engineer is going to be holSted
with his own petard. At present writing
the whole thing is deadly boomerang.
There is singular coincidence between
this investigation and the move by the Fed
eral court at Tyler to take the International
and Great Northern out of the hands of the
state court. 1t is regarded here by the
friends of the administration as a high
handed piece of business, in so far as it
seems to be an effort to ride rough-shod

is now pending on appeal in the supreme
court, decision on which is expected soon.
The move at Tyler seems to be an effort
on the part of the Federal judge, in connec-
ton with the inquiry at Galveston, to in
timidate the state courts and officials and
wrest from them the road and the bonds in
litigation. If so there is apt to be some fun
ahead. The governor has lots OF nerve and
a good firm backbone, which can be conf

they can be of any avail.
A SPECIAL SESSION.
Representatives Bell of Burleson and
Vestal of Leon, both members of the late
legislature and friends of the governor, are
here. and say the sentiment in their coun-
ties is very strong for a special session.
Interest in this question is growing rapidly
and will soon make itself felt.

AUSTIN, TEX, June 20.-County Attorney
Gillespie of Houston wrote a letter to the
attorney general recently accompanied by
one from Capt. Faulkner of the Central
railroad asking if a smoking car labeled as
such and meant for the use of whites and
blacks in common could not be placed be-
tween a car for whites only and one for
negroes without violating the law. The
encouragement replied in an opinion de-
Hvered to-day that smoking car for whites
and blacks would be violation of the law
unless divided by partition with door in
it as the separate coach bill directs. The
county attorney is ordered to see to it that
the law be observed in this particular by
the railroads.

AS it requires little time to prepare
crumbs properly, and as, when once ready,
they will keep for some time, it is an econ

oven, but do not allow them to brown.
Crush them finely with a rolling pin. pass
them through sieve. and put them away
