FOB WEE MAIDENS.
Fashionable Get-Ups for tho Babies
of Society.

VI tOGtlSty'
As the warm weather approaches the
outfit of the little folk takes on new
charms. There is always ready for sums
mer wear musliRs and ginghams that are
stamped "babyn in every thread, SO del
icate, so dainty and SO tempting they
are. The colored muslins have tiny
rosebuds, blue forget NE nots or wee yell
low flowers scattered over the plain sur
face and are made with a deep hem at
the bottom, dear little guimpe of sheer
muslin and insertion with full sleeves,
over which curtain or tiny puff of the
! figured material is set, and a ruffle of
embroidery like berthe, edges the
neck, back and front. Two tiny rosettes
of baby ribbon are in front of the short
waist and two more at the back.
A lovely aIl-white gown for belle of
five summers was of India NULL with
hree-ineh wide bands of lace insertion
in the long skirt. A ruffie of lace was
put on full around the baby waist, and
no guimpe was to be used, the neck and
arms being left bare. The sleeves were
pulled very high, and from the waist in
front white MORE ribbon was brought
up to the back in q decided point and
finished in a Vatican bow, ''just the
same as SISTERS" Challis of all sorts will
be employed for children's dresses, and
the plain red with black dots, trimmed
with black velvet ribbons and worn with
a white guimpe, will always be a favor
lite with mothers who have dark-eyed
and dark baird little daughters.
Plain pink and blue ginghams have
corded pinings of white on the little
belts and bias bands that trim the
skirts.
The picturesque is the rule in outside
garments, and any and every material
prevails. very dressy little coat was
of fawn- colored bengaline silk. The
yoke was of darker velvet and a rich
ruffie of lace fell over the shoulders like
a cape and reached to the waist. The
sleeves were full, and the hat of white
Leghorn, trimmed with tiny white tips,
made a very fine lady of the wee maiden
who wore it.
Another dressy coat was of old rose
Bedford cord. 1t had round yoke In
the back, on which was gathered u Wat
teau plait finished in q standing frill.
The front was gathered in from the neck
and very pale blue ribbon bow and
ends tied it together at the turned over
collar which was made of a ruffle of Irish
lace. The little REFERS are endless, and
there could be nothing prsttier than
navy blue one tAmmed with gold braid
or white serge.
Red also looks we'll in these tiny gar
ments when combined with black
The hats are Us large as the tots can
carry. OF Leghorn or rough straw prhl-
cipaly, and loaded with flowers of the
field, daisies and buttercups being at
present the favorites.

Harrison and Cleveland.

The Washington Post of O recent Gate
contained an article reviewing the ralit-
ical Situation as it relates to Harrison
and Cleveland, and the chances Of both
for nomination by their respective party
conventions. 1t says:
OF the total Of thirty>one conventions
which have so far been held, exactly a
dozen have instructed their delegates
to vote for the denomination of the
President at Minneapolis. These as fol-

Nineteen other conventions have been
held, sending nearly 400 delegates to the
national convention. While all of these,
with one exception, had pleasant things
TO say about the President, it is noticea
be that in no instance was this express
sion accompanied by instructions-itw was
all gilt and 40 gingerbread. These un
instructed delegations and the number

To Exclude Chinese.

The "act' to prohibit the coming OF
Chinese persons into the United States,
was laid before the President on the 9Th,
and he had a conference with the Atbor-
ney General in regard to it. The latter
examined the matter carefully and IN
formed the President that it was very
grave question whether all the existing
restrictive legislation did not expire on
the 9Th, therefore, to avoid any possible
legal complications that might arise on
that point, the President affixed his sig
nature to the bill, and it is the law of the
land from today.

In these uninstTucted delegations it is
doubtless true that Cleveland has a ina
.iofity of the delegates, this being par
tcularly the case with Massachusetts,
Nebraska, and Pennsylvania The dele
gates from Wyoming are On record as
's3eing favorable to Iir. Hill, and at least
one district in Pennsylvania has declar-
ed for him: 1t is too early, however, to
gain even an approximate idea of the
Democratic outcome,so few of the States
having taken any action.
According to the Post, there is an ele
ment Of uncertainty as to which of the
two prominent candidates for the Presi
Gency, as the facts are developed at this
time. The uninstructed delegation will
go to Minneapolis and Chicago free to
take in the situation, study it, and then
determin which is best for the respective
parties. To the rural mind, however, 1t
looks as though HARRISON and Cleveland
would be the chosen leaders Of the two
parties, unless the two-tLirds rule should
defeat Cleveland in the convention.

Special to the Gazette.


GAINESVILLE, TEX, March 1I.-About
$50 railway men gathered IN the opera
house last night and organized themselves
into an Anti-Hogg elective railway commits
sion club. As its name implies it is or
gained for the purpose Of defeating Hogg
in the primary conventions.
This move is under the direction of Will
lam Davis, a Santa F'e brakeman of Gle
burne, and George Pratt an engineer of
Temple. They have organized clubs at
Cleburne and Temple, and propose to form
al the railway men of the state into clubs
hostile to Hosg.
In stating the object Of the club Mr.. Pratt
said that the earnings of the railI loads last
year were less than they were the previous
year. Notwithstanding that the tonnage was
much greater This, he said, had the effect
Of causing the railways to reduce
their force at the expense Of the road, roll
ing stock and employees. As an instance,
he cited his own case He said his engine
went into the shops several months ago and
was there yet. because the company could
not afford to employ sufficient men to keep
the engines in repair. He denounced Hogg
for failing to give audience to a committee
of railway men who waited on him during
the session of the last legislature.
Permanent organization was effected by
electing William O'Brien, president; Harry
Jelfs, vice-president: Harry Jones,
treasurer; and Edgar Bird, secretary.
Resolutions We're passed pledging the
support Of the club to an elective COM
mission

Jorrespondence OF the Gazette.

1
AUSTIN, TEX, March 11.-For the past
| three or four days public attention here has
| been absorbed by the Republican conven-
ton and the notable Faulkner-McCallum
| wedding, almost to the exclusion of every
| thing else. Very little has been heard of
Democratic politics. The papers were read
and meutal notes taken Of anything impor-
| tant therein, and there 1t ended.
BY the time this reaches TIE GAZETTE,
the city will have begun to take on a differ
eut air and appearance. The Republicans
will have gone, and the advance guards Of
the Democratic hosts taken their places.
There are several bills in preparation for
redistricting the state that we hear about
more or less distinctly. Senator Potter has
one for congressional redistricting. So has
Representative Truits of Shelby The lat
ter gentleman, who is here, says that his
bill is only tentative, and will have to be
altered and for that reason he will not eX-
plain its provisions further than to say that
it proposes to keep Tarrant and Dallas
now. Senator Potter's bill creates a
new district out of Tarrant, Palo
Pinto, Baker, Hood, Erath, Somervell,
Comanche, Bosque, Hamilton, Mills,
Coryel and Lampasas. Dallas is left in a
district with Johnson, Hill, Navarro and
Ellis. The bill takes Travis and Bexar
out Of Congressman Savers district, and
puts them in a nsw district, the Twelfth.
I asked John Craddock, local attorney
for the East Line railroad, what was the
effect of the commissions. tariffs on his
road. He could not say definitely without
q reference to tie books, but did not think
there was much of decrease, if any at all
from the net revenue of the road. Under
the receivers management the road was
doing good business, and has now about
$40, 900 cash on hand, although there has
been a considerable outlay OF cash lately
for betterments and rolling stock. Nothing
was bought on time. Everything was
paid for, including 8 lot of steel rails and
new standard gauge engine.
Mr.. Craddock considered 1t quite a COM
plimept to the management of Receiver
Giles that the owners OF the property chose
to leave it in his hands for an indefinite
time with authority to spread the track to
standard gauge, and otherwise improve the
property.
Representative Truitt says that he is a
Chiffon man through and through, and that
nobody but Hogg is thought of in his baili-
wick for governor.
Wells of Brownsville, well-known as the
political leader in South Texas, says that
everybody down there is for Clark, and so
it goes.

Robert Mantell.

The grand romantic actor, Mr. Robert
Mantell, will appear at Gresnwall's opera
house next Wednesday evening IN Mon
bars. For matinee Thursday double bill
will be presented, The Louisianian and A
Lesson il noting, and last performance
Thursday night, The Corsican Brothers.
The Baltimore Sun says:
Robert Manten opened at Albaugh's Hol-
Hday Street theater last night in 1.-THE
Cersican Brothers, - in which he was sup
ported by an able an-round company The
house was the largest to which ManteIl
ever played in this city, and his success in
the dual role Of the brothers was
marked. The play is peculiarly suited
TO one who imbues the stage with
so much of artistic instinct as Manteli, and
gives full scope Tor his well known particu-
larity in the smallest details Of properties
and stage effects. The play was finely
mounted, and the clairyoyant visions in the
duel and other scenes were as magnificent
in their conceptions as they must have
been costly to produce.

A MALICIOUS CRIME.
Wreck of Train on the Illinois Central
Two Men Badly Injured-The
Spikes Were Drawn.

OJACKsoN, MISS, March ia successful
attempt at train wrecking was made three
miles below here early this morning. The
Illinois Central passenger, due at 2 a. m,
passed down at O'Clock, going thirty-t
miles an hour. On a twenty-fo embank-
ment the engine and five cars jumped the
track and landed in the ditch. No passen-
gers were hurt. Engineer Nelson of Nc
Comb City had both legs broken and was
scalded. Fireman Young, colored, was
badly scalded; Baggagemaster Schroeder
of New Orleans had his face and hand
mashed; Postal Clerk "Gov." Harris of
Jackson, Tenn, was seriously cut on face
and head. The spikes and fishbars had
been drawn and laid to one side, being con-
elusive evidence of malicious crime. The
officials of the road are investigating the
matter and are clearing up the wreckage.
Such accidents are getting so frequent on
the Illinois Central that the state railroad
commissioners are making Investigations.

LONDON, March 1.-At the old Bailey to-

in another expulsion from the house of

PARIS, TEX, March 1.-THE county ex-
exutive committee met here to-day to can
vass the vote of the county ON the senate
rial question. As reported the popular
vote of the precincts aggregated and
counted as q county primary election gave
MIR. Mills good majority, but if taken
simply as q precinct vote TO
instruct its member and the senatorial vote
taken by such instructions then Culberson
would have seven of the precincts to Mills
four and Chiffon three. When the exc
cutjve committee met both Messrs. Mills
and Culberson's friends urged their views,
and the committee finally decided, by
the casting vote of the chair,
that the vote should be taken by precincts
and not by the aggregate of the individual
votes cast This gives the instruction for
Mr.. Culberson as decided by the committee,
but Mr. Mills friends claim that the
action of the committee Is
of no force. Representative Hodges says
that he asked for an expression of the
wishes of the people and not of the indi-
vidual preferences of the committeeman.
As the people seem to prefer MIR. Mills he

tons given by the committee.

CHICAGO, Ill, March 11-Henry Waiter
son, in an authorized interview IL Richeiieu
to-day virtually called upon Cleveland to
withdraw from the race for the presiden-
tial nomination. Watterson said the
nomination of the eX-president would
be suicidal for the Democratic party.
Hill he too believed had dug his own politi-
cal grave in New York state and he re-
CARDS the conflict there as practically
irrecoRciIAble. The party, he says, must
come West for candidate or seek him
in either of the three states Of Massachu-
sets, Pennsylvania or Maryland. MIR.
Watterson said: Hill is as good a tariff
reformer as anybody but he's no
better than half dozen who
equal the claim with him to
public confidence. In the face Of
the New York schism, it seems to me his
nomination would be sheer suicide, and 1
have so much respect for his sense, dignity
and honor that 1 take it for granted he will
in due time time withdraw his name"
