A TEXAS judge has carried constor-
nation into one thousand families in
Bowie county by declaring that many
marriages are illegal. For moro than ten
years prior to January l it has been the
custom of the county clerks, for the
general convenience of people desiring
to marry, to fill cut marriage license
in blank and leave the same with a JUS
tice of the peace. The court holds such
marriages to be irregular, Illegal and,
consequently, void. The matter is to be
appealed to the supreme court, and it
is hardly conceivsbleth that body will
sustain the lower court, where the in
tent is SO plainly evident.

Sheep on Sma | Farms

are small and consequently do not re-

the farm clean during the growing
season and will in doing this consume
much that would otherwise go to
waste. While some grain will be
needed if they are comfortably shell
tered they can be kept thrifty with
roughness. Of course, the small
farmer can only afford to keep
good sheep and then give them
good care. On the small farm necessi-

To Cotton Planters.

Senator George, of Mississippi, who
since last April, under the terms of
senate resolution, has been engaged in
the investigation of the causes of agri-
cultural depression prevailing in the
cotton states, has prepared an address
to the cotton farmers of the United
States. In view of the Importance of
the question, and its urgency in connec-
ton with the planting of this years
crop, Senator George has thought
proper to give publicity to the conclu-
sions he has arrived. They are as fol-
lows:

The Southern Labor @ estion.

It is curious to note that while Geor-
gia calls loudly for immigrants, cry
comes from portion of the state that
the laborers are emigrating in such
large numbers as to threaten labor
famine. This question Immediately
presents itself: If Texas and Arkansas
can make negro labor profitable, why
can not Georgia do the same?
Thousands of Georgia and Alabama
farmers hire hands at six, seven and
eight dollars per month, then grum BILE
about inefficient labor. Of course it is
inefficient; what else could be looked
for under existing circumstances? Does
the planter expect n seven-dOll"r man.
living in squalid hut, and holding
soul and body together by stinted ra-
ton of corn meal and fat meat, to equal
in intelligence, efficiency and trust
worthiness the well-paid, well-housed,
well-fed farm hand of the north? Do
Georgia farmers expect European immi
grants Of the better class to settle
among them and toll fourteen hours for
thirty-one cents. when the great west
offers them dollar for the same time?
Compare the negro with that class of
immigrants who may be low enough to
labor for the pittance that the Georgia
farmer is able and willing to pay,
where will the immigrant prove better
than the black man? Intelligence?
The eight-dollar German will prove as
thickheaded as the eight-dollar negro,
and will not understand his work nor
his employer half as we'll. being used
to neither. More trustworthy? "Man,"
says a canny Scot ''is unco weak. and
little to be trusted" Try them: hire a
squad: turn them in your field then
go off. If they don't shirk, I'll
give the experimenter a years work.
The New York farmer works beside
his twenty-six dOllar-man from day
light until dark-has to do it to get his
money back. The Texas planter means
to drive the hands he entices from your
plantations hard enough to get back
his dollar a day. If Alabamians and
Georgjans can't work eight dollars and
interest out of negro, they'll not get
that or more than that out of Euro
pean: the latter are rot so easily driv-
en- as the negro.
More thrifty? Quite likely, but that
will prevent their employers speculat-
ing on them: and il is well known that
many planters make much more money
'supplying" hands than by legitimate
farming.
The negroes a menace? Not much.
individuals may be dangerous. but the
race lack that great prerequisite Of
race strength. unity. Does the negro
hold noisy archist mass-meetings
and defy the civil power? Does he
throw bombs? Does he block the wheels
of traffic by monster strikes?
This portion of the south needs no

is not sufficient employment for those
already there. I can. within thirty

RENTON'S WILLS.
One in This State, One
in Washington.
Judge Coffey Decides That the Inn
pending Contest Must Be AL
lowed to Take Place.

Judge Coffey rendered a decision YES
terday in the estate of William Renton,
deceased. oVerrulng the second amended
demurrer to the amended petition for revo-
cation of deceased's will.
Renton died at Port Blakeley, Wash, on
July IS, 1891. leaving an estate consisting
of real and personal property and valued
at $4,000. By his will. dated August 4,
1870. he bequeathed his entire estate to
Sarah NJ. Renton, his widow, with the ex-
ception OF two small bequests to tsstator' S
sisters, Mary and Margaret A. Campbell.
This will was admitted to probate in San
Francisco.
After this il was discovered that Renton
had executed second will, bearing date
December II, 1876. whereby he bequeathed d
all his estate to his sisters, Mary and Mar
garet A. Campbell, Mrs. Renton having
died in the meantime. This second will
was filed for probate in Washington State.
The second will Is contested by Mrs
Elizabeth w. Lackman and Mary A. Gaf-
fey. daughters Of testator's widow, as not
a valid will. AS beirs-at-law of Mrs
Renton the contestants claimed that the
RentOn estate belonged to them. To this
claim a demurrer was interposed, partly
on the ground that the complaint was am

had been admitted to probate in Washing
ton State, and that on this account the
Probate Court here had no Jurisdiction.
IL overrulng this demurrer yesterday
Judge Coffey found that although the first
will had been admitted TO pro bate, yet that
no final judgment, order or decree had
been passed upon it. The proponents of
the Will had deliberately entered the juris-
diction of this State before such final 1udg-
ment had been passed. The Suprem
Court had rendered a famous decision
wherein the words occurred: There can
be but one final judgment in an action,
and that Is one which in effect ends the
suit 10 the conrt in which it is entered and
finally determines the rights of the parties
in relation 10 the matter in controversy"
There had been nolconclusive probate of
this earlier will in Washington State, and
even If there had been it would not affect
the right of the Probate Court here TO de-
rernline the validity of the will according
to the law of this State. In questions of
distribution the personally came under the
law Of domicile. and the realty under the
laws of California.
Consequently, as the will filed in Wash
ington had not been made absolute by
final determination of the probate pro.
reedings therein and as no other good cause
for demurring TO the petition appeared, the
Judge decided TO override the demurrer
and allow the contest TO proceed. The
proponents were allowed ten days TO plead
thereto.

FRAUDULENT CONVERSION.
Presiding Justice Cook Orders a
Defendant Arrested.

Presiding Justice of the Peace Cook yes
terday issued an order for the arrest of
| Henry Schwartz for the fraudulent con-
version of property.
The order grew out of au action brought
by T. c. Strahl against Henry Schwartz.
The complaint charged the defendant with
acting as agent and trustee for nine diff
ferent people, and that he received for .heir
use and benefit the sum of S299. which he
refused to refund, but fraudulently con-
vered to his own use.
According to the testimony the nine
parties mentioned were creditors of one
George A. Cash. They caused the defend
ant TO bring suit against Cash for the re-
cOyery OF the various sums due them,
aggregating S602 60 Eight of the creditors
assigned their claims TO the defendant with
out consideration upon the understanding
and agreement that Schwartz would pro-
ceed and collect the money due them. pay
the costs, and distribute the balance among
the various parties according to their pro
rata.
Schwartz obtained the judgment for
S602 90. of which he collected S521 %. lie
paid out for costs of suit and attorneys
fees S93 %, leaving a balance for distribu-
ton among the eight creditors of S42S.
schwartz, however. only paid seven of
the cred tors $50 so, leaving unaccounted
Tor S277 90, which the creditors claimed
they were entitled to.
Schwartz in his defense relied upon a
receipt executed by some of the eight
parties which purports to be a receipt in
full. the court held that the receipt was
only prIma facle evidence, and could be
qualified and cOntradictad, which was
done. The court concludes that the de-
fendaDt Schwartz intended 10 conceal
from his principals the amount of money
he collected and says: Il therefore ad-

TAMPERED WITH THE METER.
Serious Charges in a Suit Against
Saloon-Keeper.

Saloon-Keeper.
Judge Sanderson is busily engaged in
trying peculiar lawsuit, in which charges
of fraud are made.
The Edison Light and Power Company
is suing William Fl. Chenoweth, Powell
street saloon-keeper. 10 recover 1856 70 for
light furnished him. The agreeme ut
stated was to the effect that Chenoweth
agreed to pay 90 cents per 1000 volts, as
measured by a meter.
1t is charged that between November IL,
1891, and July 10. 1896. the company fur
nished Chenoweth with 4,29S, $50 volts, but
the meter only showed 2,517.500 volts de-
liyered, and that whereas the bills ought
TO have amounted to $3.50 %, they only
footed up S503 80 making the difference
OF the amount claimed.
In his statement TO the jury Attorney
McCutchen explained how be fraud had
been detected. Chennweth's bills had
fallen remarkably low. and one of the
cOmpany's agents was instructed TO ex-
anime the meter. He found that the
meter registered 100000 volts one day.
and on the next day 100000 volts. This
was an absolute impossibility unless the
meter had been tampered with. Counsel
would show that an employe of Cheno-
weth eut to tile meter every Wednesday
tered So to So less week than il other
wise would have done. This had been
done with the consent and by the direction
of ChenOweth.

SCHOOL REFORM.
ROseWaId's Substitute for
the Carpenter=ShOp.
AN INSPECTOR OF BUILDINGS.
Janitors to Be Provided With Small
Tools for the Making of
Minor Repairs.

Director j. II. Rosewald, chairman of a
special committee appointed for that pur-
pose, has submitted plan for the repair
ing Of school, buildings made necessary by
the closing Of the carpenter-shOp. lie
thinks it's adoption will save a great deal
of money to the School Department.
It provides for the election Of an inspec-
tor of buildings, to hold his position at the
pleasure of the Board of Education and to
be Immediately responsible to and under
the control of the Buildings and Grounds
Committee. His salary is to be S125 a
month, with an allowance of $40 month
for carfare. lie is to be required to give a
$4,000 bond for the faithful performance of
his duty and to establish his Office in the
rooms Of the secretary of the board.
He would be required to keep books. in
which would be registered all acquisitions
TO present all acquisitions and estimates
for repairs to The chairman Of the Build
ings and Grounds Committee and file with
the bookkeeper of the board duplicate bills
for ali repairs made.
Principals for the purpose of keeping the
buildings under their charge in good re-
pair are authorized under this plan to pro-
vide for such small Jobs as may from time
TO time be needed at their respective
schools to the following extent viz: In
schools of four classes or less not more
than SO month, in schools OF from four
to eight classes Sc, in schools Of more than
eight classes 50 a month. Each princpa
is required TO keep an account of all such
repairs, and at the end of every month to
file raceipted bills for them with the seere-
tary of the board. If the sum total of
these bills be not in excess of the sums
specified. and il approved in writing by tile
chairman Of the Buildings and Ground
Committee, it Will be repaid TO the prnci-
pal as soon after the first day of the month
as practicable.
All ianitors in the School Department,
irrespective of age or sex, are to be
equipped with square, saw. hammer.
a screwdriver and a gimlet, and are eX-
pected with these tools TO performs such
little Jobs as come within their ability
when so directed by the principals.
Jobs costing moro than So for labor ana
material must be applied for by the prin-
cipal 10y requisit0n The inspector will
then visit the school and report To the
chairman Of the Buildings and Grounds
Committee on such requsilion. When the
cost OF the repairs is not over $40 the
chairman may, if he deems it advisable,
order the work TO be done. But il the
cost be more than SO and less than $500
bids for it must ee passed upon by the
Buildings and Grounds Committee, and
the work be awarded to the lowest respon-
sibIe bidder.
An account of stock was taken yester-
day at the carpenter-shop at the corner Of
Pine and Larkin streets. j. O. Carr, who
is still nominally head carpenter, will
probably be retained as inspector Of
buildings.
