Mai. Brown is so closely allied
with Texas that his name is fami-
liar throughout the length and
breadth of the state. Twice he
was elected mayor of Galveston
several times elected to the state
senate from the Galveston district,
twice mayor of Dallas, and his last
official position was that of local
Judge. In years gone by he lived
in Indianola and published the
Bulletin, then later the Galveston
Civilian,an later still he was con-
nected with Bolton Democrat and
Daily Herald of Dallas.
His last great effort, exceeding
all, is the compilation OF a COM
plete history of Texas.
Certainly no one is in better pO-
sition to write of the annals of our
state than this man, whose in
terests have been of and for Texas
for over half a hundred years, hav-
ing located in Texas before he mar
ried.
The fact is established beyond
doubt that the negro Seay Miller
who was hung, shot and burned at
Bardwell. KY, was none other
than the notorious Commodore
Miller, who has figured so con-
spicuously before the people OF
Dallas. Mr.. Bob Seay, who de-
Tended Commodore for mullifari-
Gus crimes, says, "it must be he"
The Star, an evening paper, un-
der the guidance Of Mr.. C. +. Gil
bert, formerly of the Times-Herald,

and around Dallas.

prodigal, after spending a large
amount of the banks money in
riotous living, is now required to
give $4,000 bond to appear foT
trial at the proper time and place
SThe fawning parasites Of present
cheer, who reveled in his sub.
stance while he was flush, dent

his bond and the Jail invites him
to remain"
So it Is ever, when man is up
and flush, he has plenty of friends

to poison herself by morphine
Her story is a sad one, left an or

place to place and finally, before
she is l9, fell. Sheltering arms will
provide her home, and all Others
whose desire it is to reform.
Mrs. Minnie Lester is in jail fol
shooting one c. Lowery. LOwery's
wound is not dangerous, and hC
will not prosecute.
Jacob Fingers once more figures
before the public. Again he has haC
his wife arraigned on the charge o
insanity, and again the court de
crees she is sane. For the pas
three years Fingers has been striv
ing to get his wife adjudged in
sane and sent to an asylum. Com
munity property is the connecting
link, and it is on account of sale
property that there has been 81
much quarreling in the Enger'
family.
