As yet nothing new has devel-
opcd in regard to Mr.. WelbOrn
who was arrested at New Orleans
several days ago on the charge of
fraud. 1t has been learned since
his arrest that he in some way Dor
rowed from a lady in this city
81 800, representing himself to be a
real estate broker, and agreed to
settle the debt the following day.
At this time, instead of paying her
back the entire sum, he handed her
500, made some excuse and prom
Used to pay the remaining portion
two days later. He left in the
mean time with the lady's money
and she is still the loser. He is as
yet confined in the New Orleans
prison.

AUSTIN LETTER.
To the San Antonio LIGHT.


AUSTIN, Tex, Feb -, 1898.
The bill now pending before the
Legislature relative to the fOrma-
ton of "a home for Fallen Women" ~
is in my opinion move that if
successful will cost the state much
expense and afford society little if
any benefit. The first objection to
be offered to the formation of this
home is that no woman with the
talnteSt spark of mOdeSty about her
Will desire to avail herself of it's
protection. Should she go there she
prOclaims by actions if not by words
that she has fallen from the path
of virtue and will therefore be
made an object of pity but never a
| companion. No VirtuOuS woman
could ever dare receive her into her
home with her children and no
her once having been in the home
for fallen women would follow her
with harraSSing certainty. Again
the question arises: Would not
this be dumping ground for har-
| lots who have grown old in the
business and could seek this haven
of rest like unto the old engine
that is run into the shop for re-
pairs? While this home might dc
good there is very little choice for
that result to follow. The state
might spend its money to more
advantage in donating the appro-
priatiOn intended for this home to
an asylum for applause. While |
am at all times in favor of extend
ing a helping hands to the down
trodden, | have seen so much de-
ception and trickery practiced by
those who claim to be in need that
| have grown somewhat skeptical
The claim is made that circum-
stances quite frequently drives a
woman to sin and that this house
would redeem her. While
this might be time in one
case, there care hundred others
where it would prove a flat failure
| This peculiar mode of livelihood
adopted by so many women is nine
times of ten the resultant of nat
ural desires, rather than circum-
stances, and you might as we'll try
to change the leper's spots as to
turn them in their sin. You GER
tainly cannot do it by budding
them together in a house and
branding that house to the world
as a place inhabited by women
who have lived a goddess and sin
full life. Illuminating them daily
by Haunting their sins to the world
is not calculated to bring about
their redemption, to say the least
