THE DEATH OF YOUNG LAWYER ANDREWS CAUSES

REMOVAL TO THE WEST OF ANOTHER PROMINENT

The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1892-03-24

the location of the three new courts OF
appeal elected very little satisfactory
information. Half of the senators
were undecided in their own MINDS or
were non-committal. Among those
who did speak out theei opinion as to
location varied. 1t was generally
fotind the senator who lived in or near
large city favored that city first of
all for one of the courts and was UNI
decided as to the location of the other
two. All of them said they wanted
to give satisfaction to the state and
that the state should he devided up
with this end in view, into three
equitable subdivisions
AS far as could be judged one of the
courts will certainly go to either Hous-
ton or Galveston, one to some North
Texas town, with odds in favor OF
Fort Worth or Dallas, and one in this
section of the state. And in this con-
nection it would be well to observe
that San Marcos has ambitions for one
of these courts. She has a strong
lobby in the field, and is developing
strength in the Senate. The location
of these three courts will not be one
of the easiest duties of the session
and fur will fly before the matter is
finally settled.

Dirty Flower Girls.

If one goesto to the Covent Garden
market early enough one can see the
street flower vendors laying in their
stock in trade for the day. Girls Of
Is or l6 as blase and depraved, beg
ging copper here and there from
some well-to-do visitor in the market,
and then bargaining sharply to get
it's worth from a gardener. There
are old women, doddering, blear-eyed
old things, who have been standing
at the same corner year in and year
out for 50 long they've forgotten when
they began; there are crippled men and
tiippant boys, and the choice Of flow
ers they make is pretty sure guide
to the locality they sell in. They all
bargain we'll, and get bit of green
thrown in If they can, watch like
hawks to see a blossom drop from
some ones basket, and snap it up
eagerly as so much clear profit.
Slovenly wretches they are for the
most part. with flower trays under
their arms and occasionally a toddler
at their heels or in their arms-a
little, dirty bundle from which a
faint, querulous, hopeless cry comes
now and then to let one know there
is human being in it. One Of these
little bundles was in the girl-mother's
way when buying, SO she pumped it
down upon the damp brick floor, and
some careless foot knocked the con-
tents of watering pot over it. Did
she mind it? Not a bit, but she let
it lie there, drenchcd, till she got
through with the business in hand,
then caught it up and carried it away
swung under her arm. All around
the market these flower vendors
squat on the curbstOnc and arrange
the loose flowers into little bouquets
with skill that is wonderful when
one looks at their filthy unkcmpt
selves. -Pittsburg Despatch.

this region cyclers have made their
influence felt, and though they have
not accomplished as much as they
desire they are now enjoying some or
the fruits of their labors. Cyclers
now propose to emphasize the need
and value of good roads by an exhi-
bition at the Worlds Fair which
shall be an object lesson in good road
construction. If this is carried out,
and there seems to be no good reason
why it should not be, the exhibit
ought to prove both interesting and
valuable, and impress upon country
lawmakers and road-makers that a
good road is far cheaper and far
better investment than bad one.

Risks of KlilrOading.

The committee report accompany
ing the bill gives some statistics
which make an impressive showing
of the great injury to life and limb in
railway train service. Wellington
won Waterloo and Meade Gettysburg
with a loss Of 23, 1856 and %, 203, while
the total loss on both sides at Shiloh
in two days murderous fighting was
$4,000 In the three years war of
the Crimea England lost in killed and
wounded 81, O35 men. None of these
terrible battles furnished list Of
losses equal to the loss in single
year of our railroad men, loss equal,
in fact, to the entire present force Of
the United States army.
In the Johnstown flood $3.50 per-
sons persisted, while during the year
1890 casualties on our railways re-
suited in railway employees killed,
2,45l, and injured, p, 1914. The
Johnstown disaster filed the imagi-
nation with horror and sent a thrill
of sympathy throughout the civilized
world, but that calamity came in one
fell sWoop, while fatalities on the
railways, involving in the aggregate
a far greater sacrifice of human life,
have scarcely attracted public atten-
ton. Nightly several poor fellows
are picked off-in the freight yard,

GREAT SCOTT. The planet Mars
will soon be only 35, 600, 900 Of miles
distant from us, instead Of 1T, 900, 600
miles, as heretofove. We shall be
able, with the aid of a good telescope,
to see the farmers in the back coun-
ties of Mars hoeing their potatoes
and diStilling their planetary whisky.
Perhaps we may find out what Ian
guage they speak, if we can read any
of the signs on their stores, and what
their politics happens to be. There
will be a chance to corral that legacy
which the generous Frenchwoman left
to him who should discover most
about Mars.

Power of Kindness.

The MeydOum Pyramid stands in
the burying-ground of Oldest Egypt,
and there, day by day, are conducted
most careful explorations under the
management of Mr.. Flinders Petrie.
Thus does the tomb yield up it's Sc
crets, but these are not more inter-
esting than the fact demonstrated
throughout these operations, that
even the idle temperament of Egyp-
tian workmen is more powerfully in
fluenced by love than by fear.
At Luxor, says a writer in the
Gentleman's Magazine. a swearing
bully Of an ovcrseer hustled the chill
dren with their palm baskets of mold
from pit to bank, flashing them mer-
cilessly at times, and Ticking his ele-
phant-hide whip for pure cruelty at
the halfnaked bodies Of the poor lit
tie boys and girls who, in the name
of science, were working like slaves,
through heat and dust, to bring back
the colossi of Ramses the Great, or
the temple of his father Seti, from
the grave of centuries.
1t was a sight to make ones blood
round the leg of a lad or the naked
ankle of a girl, as they toiled up the
steep bank with the heavy palm bas-
ket on the head. Sometimes it would
bring the poor creatures to their
knees, but when | demonstrated, l
was told:
1t matters not! No whip, no work !"
Now Mr.. Petrie gets twice as much
work out of his men and boys as does
this bully at Luxor, and yet his inter-
course with them is uniformly gentle
and serene. 1t was refreshing to sit
there in the shadow Of those vast
mounds. at the building of which the
land had groaned and the lash had
been busy, and to see how men to-day
labored with the same tools, dressed
in the same way, had much the same
simple wants to satisfy. and the
same home to return to at eventide.
A light was in their faces, and a
smile on their lips, for they toiled for
honest bread at honest prices. and
their master was friend.
That evening / heard a boys voice,
and saw boys hand thrust through
the tent where we sat. Mr.. Petrie
cut piece of soap in two, and gave
the lad halt, saying, quietly:
Il find there's nothing like soap for
sore heads"
Soon another voice piped in the
darkness, and the same knife now
dived into a pot Of ointment, and
spread some carefully on a bruised
face.
Presently, with low salaam. a
dusky man with an ache in his dusky
stomach applied for cure. The paraf-
fine lamp was kindled, cup of COT
fee was made, and spoonful Of pep
per stirred therein. The poor fellow
swallowed it with a gurgle, and turned
to go
May God increase your goods ex-
ceedingly!" were the words of thanks.
And the grateful ones went back to
their reed huts, their bournouses and
sandy beds for the night.

The locked-out inhabitants of
Homestead who held the mills against
the proprietors where plainly in a
state of anarchy. In fury they were
like savages. 1t was a battle of en-
ragged and misguided men, and in any
event its outcome could only be in
furious to them as individuals. If
they have established a principle that
is yet to appear. The Pinkcrton men
were led by persons displaying con-
spicuous unWisdom, to call it by no
harshcr term. Clearly the locked-out
eX-cmplOycS Of the mills had under
the law no right to hold the mills
against the owners Of the property.
But there is a terrible responsibility
in precipitating a deadly riot. No
corporation has the right to summon
a private army and shoot down men
who oppose it, even if those men are
seriously infringing on others rights
as propcrty-owners. 1t is freely
granted that the lOcked-out workmen
committed crimes in the eyes of the
law when they shot down the ap-
preaching Pinkerton men. But to
provoke the Infatuated jewellers in
Homestead to this degree by the i'm
portation Of armed mcrcenares was
an act Of madness that has no justiti-
cation. There would have been no
murders If arrogance had not pre-
pared the lines of battle and ruled
the scene Of this monstrous conflict.

"ouR LADY OF PEACE"
A Remarkable Oak Tree Church In a
French Province.

A Remarkable Oak Tree Church In q
French Province.
Among the early inhabitants OF
France and of the British isles oak
trees were an object of worship, and
much of the Druidical service or
those far-off days was connected with
the monarchs Of the forest. When
Christianity was introduced the
early teachers of the gospel OF the
crucified turned these oak trees into
temples, and statues Of the Divine
Son and His mother were erected IN
them. Many of these trees became
places of pilgrimage and Gothic
churches now mark their sites.
At Alonville, in Normandy, one OF
these trees was standing few years
ago and may perhaps still remain.
Years ago time followed it's mighty
trunk, thirty-f1ve feet in circumfer-
ence, and the inside was lined with
marble. Within the crypt an altar
was erected, and upon it was placed
a statue of the Madonna. Here SER
vice was often performed, and here,
tradition has it, crusanders knelt in
worship before and after visiting the
Holy Land. When, during the
French revolution, the agents OF the
infidel government were sent to de-
stroy the shrine Alonville, the peo-
pie flew to it's defense and prevented
it's demolition, and during the ter
rible reign of terror in France this
was the only spot where the old faith

BY sheer good fortune and the a,

BY sheer good fortune and the adj
mirable behavior of officers and pas
sengers in the face of grave peril, the
stranding of the City of Chicago has
involved no loss of life. 1t might
easily have been one Of the seas most
terrible disasters. The ship, crowded
with passengers, was run full tilt
upon some of the most dangerous
rocks on a most dangerous coast.
Fortunately the rocks held her fast,
thus giving time for the safe removal
of the passengers to the shore. Had
she slipped off she might have gone
down in nine fathoms of water. Why
did she run on the rocks? The ship
had sighted the coast lights, and
her officers knew that they were near
the very dangerous rocks on which a
little later she was stranded. When
fog fell upon them in such position,
two courses W ere open to them, the one
perfectly safe. the other reasonably
50. They might have turned the
ships bow seaward, and made an OFF
ing till the fog lifted. That would
have been safe, but it would have
involved delay, and the insane desire
OF travellers for a speedy voyage rarely
brooks delay that may be avoided
even by taking risks. They might
have proceeded toward Queenstown
harbor at so low rate Of speed as to
reduce danger greatly. They did
neither, according to the dispatches,
but ran at nearly full speed" through
the fog until the ship was driven
upon the rocks. We have laws in
every civilized nation to compel the
proper construction and equipment of
ships for safety at sea. Why should
we not have laws to compel the
proper and safe handling of ships in
approaching port? Why should it
not be imperatively required that
when fog falls upon ship within hail
Of dangerous coast she shall make
a safe otiing and wait for better con-
ditions before attempting to make
port? We have reduced danger at
sea TO minimum, but in our mad
desire for speed we have actually in
creased the danger of ending voyage
