TERMS AGREED UPON
Proposition From the Clark
to the Hogg Faction.
THE BASIS OF SETTLEMENT

The National Platform Adopted at Chi
caco In 1892 and the Enforcement of
the Present Administration Required.
Chairman MatIock to Communicate the
Resolution Passed to sir. Baker.
DALLAS. Feb. 9.-The Clark execu-
tive committee Of the Democratic party
Of Texas. headed by Chairman Mat

hast night looking to harmony between
the Hogg and Clark factions OF the

state executive committee were pres
ent.
The speech OF the evening was made
by Hon. George Clark and was an
earnest appeal Of harmony IN the Dem
ecratic party OF Texas.
The session lasted five hours and
after many short talks were made tie
following proposition. which ia the
unanimous opinion Of the Clark com
rnittee, was adopted:
Whereas, q serious division exists
among Democrats III Texas and it is 10
the interest OF the party ami good gov
eminent that such division should be
aijustei and the party reunited upon
the basis OF fraternal cnion involving
20 sacrifice of principle ON the part OF
any Democrat nor the imposition OF
any terms calculated to bring numilia-
ton therefore. b. 1t
Noe ~ l,
favor reunion Of tie party. and
while this committee does not assume
TO frame or dictate. yet for the purpose
OF reunion we propose and binit as Il
basis Of adjustment and settlement of
all differences honorably;
!! That all Democrats of Texas in
dorse as "A true expression of Demo
cratic faith the national platform
adopted at Chicago IN 1852.
3 That recognizing the existence Of
individual differences Of op Mon among
Democrats upon many questions we
favor RELOCATION of all differences in
Federal issues to the wisdom OF the
present Democratic congress and presi-
dent and favor like RELOCATION of all
differences Oh local and state issues
TO the next Democratic state conven
ton.
B. We indorsc our present national
Democratic administration.
l. We condemn the platform and
principles of the Republicans and Pop
ulists or Peoples party as essentially
nimical TO Democracy and destructive
Of free government.
g. We propose that all primaries and
conventions to be held III 1894 be com
posed and constituted on the basis of
the vote for the Cleveland electors in
1852. and no person who was then of
age and did not SO vote and no person
who will not pledge himself to abide
by the action of the state convention
~ assem- bled. shall he allowed to par
ncipate i'll the primaries
The final resolution adopted WAS in
substance that Chairman Matlock com
municate the resolutions To Chairman
Baker OF the Hogg faction and if they
were accepted by Baker and his cotl-
mittee. n joint or separate call of each
executive committee would be made to
unite the two factions.
Chairman Baker will receive the com
munication today, but it is not ex-
pected that he will express AN opinion
until he confers with the members of
his executive committee.

The number of women who take up the
law as a profession is steadily on the in
crease. Miss Leila j. Robinson, one of the
women who secured admission after a
long struggle, wrote for The Green Bag
some time ago an article in which the his
tories of many Of the women lawyers were
related. Mrs Bella A. Mansfield of Mount
Pleasant, H., was the first woman to be
admitted to the practice of the law. She
passed the necessary examination in June,
1869. The second woman who became
lawyer in this country. so far as is known,
was Miss L NINA Barkalow of Brooklyn,
who was admitted to the bar in Missouri
in March, 1870 The third to gain the de-
sired privilege was Miss Sarah Kilgore,
who was graduated from the law school
of the Michigan university in March 1871
Some of the women in the various states
of the Union who have become members
of the bar use their legal knowledge only
in caring for their own property Others
are engaged exclusively in Office work, but
several appear in court and transact all
the usual business of active practitioners.
There are several firms in the west in
which the husband and wife are the part
ners in carrying on the occupation of at
torneys and counselors. In one case the
husband is entirely deaf, and the wife CON
sequently has the larger share in carrying
on active litigation. The legal profession
has not yet become so popular among
women, however, as that of medicine.

The Heidelberg tun is completely thrown
into the shade and is, in fact nothing bet

10, 10 gallons and measures 28 feet in
height. The slaves, each made in one
piece, are bound together by 10 iron hoops.
But the chief popularity Of this master
piece of cooperage consists in its internal
arrangement, The tun of the Paris wine
vaults is divided into five sections of une-

different descriptions of wine without the
slightest intermixture taking place. The
filling Is effected by means of an atmos-
pherical pump constructed on new prin-
ciple, which sucks up the wine through
enormous hose pipes and conveys 1t to its
