DEAR SISTER, have built the par
sonage as far as l could. We finished
the outside, but none of the partitions
are in. l put the stove pipe out of the
window, and We are living the best we
can. Since | commenced to build |
have lost two of my children, and we
had to sit by the bedside of a third for
six weeks, and our expenses are very
great. | have put 1913 of my own mon.
ey into this building, besides my work.
| will not murmur, but many of my
friends think my children would have
been alive today had l not been COM
PEELED to expose them during the build
ing. | do wish you could help us at
once. | have never suffered more in
convenience than during the last six
months. But l will have to suffer on
through this winter unless you can
help me. l would do the work if |
could get the money. l would pay the
money if l had it, but my doctor bill
and funeral expenses are unpaid, and |
can help myself. Bnt enough of this.
| can suffer, and will do so in silence;
but when my wife and little ones suf-
fer and are taken away, it is hard to
endure seeing them in need of a home.
Yours i'll Sorrow, but not Witout
Hope.

JUDGE JAMES II. BURTS.
The Distinguished Gentleman Passed
Away After n Brief Illness.

The Distinguished Gentleman Passed
Away After n Brief Illness.
Shortly after s o'clock yesterday
morning Judge James H. Burts passed
away at his o on East Ninth Street,
Austin Texas, close to the opera house,
where for the last three weeks he has
been suffering with the grip. At the
time of his death he was surrounded
by his brother and sister, who reached
the city on Saturday last, and a few
very intimate friends.
Judge James II. Burts was born
on his fathers plantation, known as
Green Meadows" in Washington
County, East Tennessee, in 1882, and
passed his boyhood on the farm. He
studied law in the office of his brother
in law, Hon. William Henry Maxwell,
one of the leaders of the bar of Ten.
nessee before the war. In 1866 Judge
Burts went to New York intending to
locate, but in that year or early in 1857
he came to Texas and located at Loeb
hart, in Caldwell County, where he re-
manned until his removal to Austin in
1876. He has two brothers in Texas,
DR.. w. P. Burls of Fort Worth and Jo-
seph E. Burts of Houston, and one sis
ter, Mrs. Lizzie G~illispie, of Kaufman
County.
He was educated at and graduated
from Tusculum College, Washington
County, Tennessee, a college under the
auspices of the Presbyterian Church
whose president was DR.. Alexander
IlnnEn m npn An l,n 90 Ala
church. After attaining manhood
Judge Burts attached himself to the
Presbyterian Church, of which he has
since been a consistent member.
He entered the Confederate service
during the close of 1861 and was lieu
tenant of Company X, DeBray's regi.
ment, of which company j. j. Meyers
was captain. Meyers subsequently be-
come commander of the regiment and
Judge Burts adjutant of the same. He
was seriously wounded in battle dur
ing 1854 in Louisiana, which prevented
him from performing further military
duty. He was a brave soldier, devoted
to duty and beloved by all the officers
and men of the regiment
In 1888 he was appointed assistant
attorney general by Governor John
Ireland, which position he filled for
four years, representing the State in
all criminal cases before the court
of criminal appeals.
Judge Burts was frequently appoint
ed special judge and, as such, tried
many important civil cases where the
regular judge of the district court was
disqualified, his rulings being always
characterized with fairness, justice and
legal ability.
As a man he was very popular and
his death will be universally regretted
wherever he was known. Deceased
was a greatly beloved member of the
Austin Bar Association, which body
will hold a meeting in the district
court room at 10 o'clock to take action
on his death and to make arrangements
to attend the funeral which will take
place this afternoon at 3 O'Clock from
the Southern Presbyterian Church.

escape, and was chased several blocks
by the crowd. She finally escaped, and
the troops soon restored quiet. No
more trouble occurred until o'clock,
when the laundry girls quit work. When
the girls left the works they were sur
rounded by a demonstrative mob of
from 800 TO 1000 women and children.
A portion of the crowd followed Minnie
Kaufman through the streets of
Pullman to her home. Near Mar
ket ball they stopped her pro ress
and began calling her names, and one
woman, 1t is said. struck the girl in the
face. Several policemen stepped in at
this Juncture and gave Miss Kaufman
protection as far as her home. Noar-
rests were made. In the meantime an
escort of ten policemen was having all
Interesting time protecting seventeen of
the laundry girls who live in Roseland.
A mob of nearly five hundred women
and children and few men followed
them from the works down Florence
avenue and on One Hundred
Eleventh street across the Illinois
Central railroad tracks. The police
were not accustomed to dealing with a
crowd OF the feminine gender, and did
little more than to keep the most tur-
Dulent women from SeiZlng hold of the
frightened girls. The entire march was
enlivened with cries of "scabi and
other epithets. AT Roseland, where the
girls separated, each was followed home
by small group of the women, whose
object seemed to be to see where each
girl lived.
At o'clock fifty Hollanders, who
have been employed about the works
as lumber showers, track graders and
repairers, left the southeastern gate Of
the works for their homes in ROseland
They had as guard sixteen policemen.
Scarcely had they come from the works
when 100 strikers, gesticuiating wildly,
making threats, shouting ''scab," and
other names surrounded them. They
took the same course toward ROseland
as had been taken by the laundry girls.
Before ROseland was reached the crowd
following them had increased largely,
and it ha become necessary for the
police TO charge it several times with a
liberal use Of the CLUB before it was
dispersed. Each of the men was fol-
lowed to his home by several strikers,
but was not moieSted.

DOUBLE ELoPEMENT.
AS a Result. Three Are Now in
Jail.

LOUISVILLE, July pa sensational
elopement from Knoxville, Tenn. cul-
minated in the equally sensational ar
rest here of all the principals in the
affair. Mrs. Matte Landes. fine-look-
ing woman, aged fifty. is In jail; WILL
IAN N. Lowell, well.dressed man of
forty-three, is in cell at the Seventh
street police station, aud in an adjoining
cell is e. s. Jennings, fashionable
looking young man. The three were
arrested by detectives at 1902 West Wal
nut street. on warrant sworn out by
q. w. Landes, OF Knoxville charging
them with adultery. Landes came to
Louisville from Knoxville a few days
ago, aid at once called on Chief of De-
tectIves Owens and told him his
troubles. According to his statement,
his daughter Nellie, beautiful young
woman of nineteen years, had been
receiving attentions from G. S.Jennings
against his will. He also stated that he
had suspected his wife of being OH
much too friendly terms with William
II. Lowell. On July 6. lie said, the
whole party eloped, taking with them
two smaller children. The older
daughter was accompanied by jennings.
The house at No. 1702 West Walnut
street was rented, and they had been
living there since. Landes spent nearly
two weeks searching for them before he
came 10 this city. He secured the
assistance of detectives who succeeded
in locating the guilty parties. The
oldest daughter was not locked up, be-
ing left to take care of the younger
children

thirteen miles south of this city. was
shot and instantly killed by his brother
Willie, boy OF eleven years. The
shooting was somewhat peculiar. Gar

proof shields invented and recently
tested i'll Germany. He concluded to
make one like them, and having COM
pleted it, he put it on, and asked his
brother 10 fire shot at him. The lit
tie brother performed the request.
The bullet went through the shield and
pierced the boys heart. The shield
was made out of coffee sack. and
flied with scraps of old barbed wire
and wool. The accident drove the

HOSTILE ENGINEERS.
They Threaten to blake Trouble
for Their Successors.

TOLEDO. Ohio. July 2O.-A condition
of affairs has developed among the
brotherhood engineers on the Wabash
system which may lead to trouble in
that order. Since the WABASH resumed
traffic after the strike, some
700 men, of whom 400 are engi-
neers, largely brotherhood, men
and the other 800 firemen, have new.
er been called OH to report for duty.
while their engines are run by new
men. Neither have they been notified
of dismissal. They are simply .hung
up." The Brotherhood engineers as
sumo that they are not wanted. They
say that of the new men who have taken
their places a number are Brotherhood
men, and far the latter to displace them
Is contrary to the laws of the organza
tion. They propose to make things
lively in the order for some one, prob
ably Chief Arthur. Officials of the Wa
bash deny the statement that any of
their engineers have been "hung up"
The men, they say, refused to go out
on their runs when ordered, and virtu-
ally quit the service of the company.
New men were employed, and in order
to avoid trouble the majority of these
were Brotherhood men. Most of them
are from the East, $50 being engineers
who lost their positions through the Le-
high strike.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 20.-Itis proph-
esied Oh all sides that the Southern Pa
cific strike is TO be settled by Monday
next. 1t is rumored about that negoti-
ations Of some sort are pending between
the strike leaders and the railroad off,
cials. but these rumors positively can
not be authenticated. 1t is simply
known that the strikers at Oakland
wired President Debs asking whether
they were authorized to negotiate with
the railroad officials and that DebS
answered practically iuStructlng the
California unions to act as they would
deem advisable. In the face of these
stories of pending negotiations. it is a
significant fact that the strikers are no
longer Offering resistance. and that the
number Of guards going out on trains
has been greatly reduced. NotWlth-
standing these evidences of a desire on
the part of both sides for peace, the
railroad officials still insist that they
are running the trains without the least
difficulty and they need no more men,
while the strikers on the other hand de-
clare that the company's operating
department is still woefully crippled.
The railroad managers, however,
though they have been asserting for
several days that they are running all
trains as usual, have regularly annuIled
several important trains. Tonight, for
the first time since the strike was in
augurated, the north-bound Oregon
express was sent out, and not until to-
morrow night, at least, will the evening
east-bound overland be restored. At

could be induced to return. The post
office department has withdrawn its
coast mails from the steamships and
has fully restored its service on the
railroads. 1t is claimed, too. that the
last of the delayed Eastern mail has
reached San Francisco.

of the strikers. The latter
claimed that their man was not
having fair play, and that Miller had
two OF the three judges and all the
clerks. They placed William Brkhotf
at the polls as challenger. and Aid.

hoff was not resident OF tho district.
This caused lively row, and for a
time looked ash the crowd. which had
