Som ewhat Eccentric.

A strange case of insanity has recent
ly come to light at Ballston. The I'M
fortunate person is Charles H. Morris,
thirty-two years of age and an expert
accountant. He has for long time
been known as a man of many eccen-
tricities, and has frequently been made
the object of practical jokes by sporting
men. It's thought that constant joking
and teasing have been potent factor in
impairing his mental faculties.
He has several times lately left town
for few days, sometimes on business,
sometimes on pleasure, and before leav-
ing caused to be published in the local
papers paragraphs to the effect that he
chad gone to New York to attend con-
vention of the ragpickers at the Fifth
Avenue hotel" About two months ago
invitations were sent out announcing
that hewas about to marry a well known
young woman from another town. The
invitations were bona fide, but ON the
day of the wedding Morris remained in
town, denying that he had any thought
of marrying. He is considered first
class accountant, and appears to be as
sane as any one except for these actions.

His Bottle Proved to Be Loaded.

A young boy named ellison, in COM
pany with one or two other boys, was
on the sewer dock and discovered sew
eral bottles in an old iron tank. In one
of the bottles was white substance.
Young Gilson's curiosity was aroused.
He produced match and, lighting it,
dropped it into the bottle. He held the
bottle in his right hand, and no sooner
had the match struck the bottom of the
bottle than an explosion followed, blow
ing the bottle to atoms, filling Gilsons
hand with the fragments of the glass
and also nearly blowing the thumb of
his hand.-New Haven Register.

Divorced for Telling Lies.

In the circuit court at Beatrice, Neb..
Saturday, William Truesdale was grant
ed an absolute divorce from his wife,
Amelia. The petition reciting the
charges on which divorce was sued for
is the most curious one ever filed in
court. 1t recites the fact that the wife
is an incorrigible gossip, whose tale tell.
ing propensities and penchant for gos.
siping render life with her unbearable.
Truesdale AYERS that in the three years
he has lived with his wife she has told
10000 lies. "She cannot tell the trnth,"
he declares in his petition, land while
it is in the nature of disease, believe
it incurable. Hence l ask relief in a
divorce. Cor. Philadelphia Press.

THE WILLIAMSON COUNTY BOLT.
1t would seem that every Texas
convention this year has bolt attach
ment. Our judicial convention which
it was expected would settle the ques-
ton of the candidacy for district judge
in Travis and Williamson counties
has resulted in split and the simple
Endorsement of the two candidates be-
fore it. This means no Democratic
nominee for judge in this judicial dis
trict. The two candidates before the
convention were each patted on the
back, turned loose on the people and
told to hustle. 1t is true that Will
hanson county after the adjournment
of the district convention called a
little convention of their own, which
was simply select convention of the
few delegates the county had sent to
the district convention, and then pro-
fessed to nominate Mr.. Cochran, Will
liamson's candidate for the judgeship.
This action means nothing more than
the county had previously done for
him except that we think his
over jealous friends have hurt Mr..
Cochran's chances of success. Their
action in thus further indorsing him
would seem to indicate they were not
willing to allow him to go before the
people on the same footing as his OPP
ponent, Mr.. Morris, but they must
plaster him over with another indorse-
ment. 1t was a most unfortunate
thing in itself, for the sake of the dis
trict and for Mr.. Cochran.

NAV | call attention to the case OF a
worthy man who is in prison for resist
ing the attempts Of landowners to selze
and inclose the land of the people? The
case | refer to is that of the Rev. +.
Haydn Williams, who is incarcerated IN
Holloway Jail, and has now been lmpris-
oned for a whole month because he
knocked down wall which had been
built to inclose what had been from
time immemorial an open space, called
the Abbey plain, where the people USED
to play football and other games.
The injustice of Mr. Williams impris-
onment is, that instead of being properly
tried and if it is found that he has done
wrong made to pay for the damage he
has done to the wall of the lord OF the
manor, he has been sent to prison with
out trial on a charge of contempt OF
court, and there he may remain month
after month, according to the caprice OF
the court of queens bench. This power
of committal to prison for an indefinite
period on such fanciful charge as con-
tempt of court seems to me to be a thing
savoring Of the proceedings of the court
of the star chamber, which was abolished
for its arbitrary acts by the breath OF
popular Indignation. In my ignorance
l thought there was passed by the repre-
sentatives of the people, for their protec-
ton from arbitrary imprisonment, an act
called the habeas corpus act, which pre-
vented man from being capriciously
imprisoned for an indefinite time with
out fair trial if he has been guilty of any
crime. But here is a mana gentleman
and minister-being treated as if he
had been guilty of robbery.-Cor. Lon

THE PITTSBURG BATTLE.

The dreaded conflict between the
strikers and the Pinkertons at the
Carnegie iron mills has come, and the
result is 40 men killed or wounded,
with several families left helpless, the
husband and father being numbered
among the slain. In this particular
battle, it seems, the strikers were inn
mediately to blame, having fired the
first shots. In this battle, also, the
strikers won and the Pinkertons were
forced to surrender. These are
minor considerations, however. The
great question is the mighty
problem that lies back Of
all these outbreaks called strikes and
labor riots-the problem of strife be.
tween capital and labor. 1t is becom-
nga more serious question every day
in the history OF our government.

An Unintentional Wrong.

About week ago the reporter,
while talking to Mr.. Dittlinger, was
informed by him of the loss of one of
his eyes, and that he had sold the
business of the Bargain House Furn-
ishing company on the Avenue to his
clerk, Mr. Isaac Bledsoe, on account
of his inability to attend to so much
business, in consequence of his i'm
paired sight. The reporter misunder-
stood Mr.. d., and inferred that he
would close out his entire business
and published it accordingly as anews
item Mr.. d. informs us that in con-
sequence of the item his customers
have received the impression that he
will retire, and his competitors are
using it against him, thereforedesires
us to state that he is here to stay, and
any guarantees given by him are
good and will be complied with to the
fullesr extent OF the meaning thereof.

Thousands of Tons of Oil.

Oil is to be used as fuel instead of coal
in all the big furnaces at the Worlds
fair grounds. The exposition company
will pay the Standard Oil company sew
enty cents barrel until 1898, and then
have the privilege of getting the oil at
the lowest market price, not to exceed
7215 cents barrel. The contract will
be for perhaps the largest quantity ever
sold to one consumer. The lowest es-
innate that has ever been made of the
amount of coal that would be burned at
jackson park during the exposition was
$4,000 tons. On this basis 225,0OO bar
rels of oil would be used, but it is prob
able that the amount will be largely in
excess of that estimate. Her

Every day.the power OF the millionaire
becomes greater, and in the same
ratio the helplessness of the poor man
is increasing. At the Carnegie iron
works $500 men are banded together
AGAINST the one man, Carnegie, and
he laughs at them. The Atlanta Con-
stitution in Fourth of July editorial
on this pending trouble well said:
Tn this boosted land of the free it is
the bitterest irony of fate that these
industrious workers, through no FAULT
OF their own, should be suddenly
thrown between the "dead line" OF
Carnegie and the other deadline OF
starvation.
And, in the meantime, what of the
man of iron whose heartless order has
caused all this paralysis and pauper-
ism? He Tolls in luxurious ease in his
Scotch palace, every stone of which he
cemented with the blood and tears of
oppressed labor. A self made man,
rising from the gutter, he has made
dazzling parade of his wealth. Re-
Gently he has made himself the talk
of two continents by giving away
millions to found libraries and colleges,
and has excited public expectation by
promising to distribute his entire for
tune before he dies. "But not a cent
shall go to my kin or to the churches"
seys this Scotch upstart, with his
heart of stone and his hand of iron.
1t is all right, Andrew Carnegie.
The world has found you out and you
cannot cheat the Almighty. "rhe
mills of the gods grind slowly, but
ttey grind exceeding fine" Your
time will come. The people of your
own blood, barred out from your
bounty by some mad whim, will be
at least as we'll off as you will be when
the final settlement comes. The
princely sums you have given to
Libraries and colleges will not secure
the advertising and fawning you
hoped for, and the general verdict OF
mankind will be that you deducted
your gifts from the wages of the
honest men, whose strong arm built
I'D YOUR fortune and enabled you in
lordly and pampered idleness to re-
cline in an easy chair in your Scotch
castle and send your proclamation of
serfdom-yOur sentences OF death TO
those men whose shoestrings you are
not worthy to tie. You may win this
time. Andrew Carnegie, but you can
not escape the mills of the gods!
Yet what of this lockout, these
desperate men? They may burn, and
knock down, and kill for afew months,
but in.the mean time their children are
starving, and in the end they will
have to give up the fight. Then the
ring. leaders of them will be tried and
imprisoned; and the iron mills will go
on, great, merciless monsters as they
are, but not more merciless than the
men whose wealth they are increas-
ing. The workmen in the mills who
give up their lives to the grinding toll,
and can yet scarcely keep their heads
above water, are called up some day
end told that they must have their
wages cut in two. No wonder that
they grow desperate, and are ready
tor any reckless and defiant deed!
And so, knowing that their lives
could not be much worse, they band
together and shoot Pinkertons and
burn property. True, they will fail;
but these things show that some day
the limit may be reached, and that
these working people are getting into
q dangerous mood.

Favored the Project.

The subcommittee of the Board of
Trade directory appointed Tuesday
to look into Rev. Bruck's plan for il
Illustrating Texas at the Worlds Fair,
had meeting yesterday and
thoroughly discussed the whole pro-
ject. They advised against the joint
stock company feature, but adopted
and endorsed all the main features OF
the plan as excellent. Rev Mr..
Bruck will buy his stereopticon at
once and begin the work of collecting
views in Austin and then radiate
from here all over the state. The
movement is good one.
