The majority OF the Democratic
members Of the House are in favor
OF the repeal OF the State bank tax,
but thanks to the efforts of Mr..
Springer, the chairman of the COM
m'ttee on banking and currency,
whose particular cheering" seems
to be national bank stock, he has
prevented the favorable report in
the House Of . bill providing for
the unconditional repeal Of the tax.
THIS is the only kind Of bill that
will satisfy the majority Of the
Democrats and carry out the pledges
Of the Chicago platform, and in Or
der to get such . bill before the
House . Democratic caucus will be
called next week, for the purpose
OF taking the matter out of the hands
OF Mr.. Springer and his committee.
We are glad to hear that President
Cleveland is in favor of the repeal
Of the State bank tax and will lend
bic influence to that end, because
with untaxed State banks and al
safe and innexible currency the de-
mand for IN increased volume Of
money will be supplied and We be-
heve there will be and end to the
present craze for the free coinage
OF silver. OF course, the cry u
'wild cat money" will be raised.

BY it. The repeal bill passed by

worth of new machinery for the re-

this line.
A switch will be put in this week

gang has been putting in new ties
and ballasting the road the past
week along it's entire length, and
when the renovation is entirely
completed cars will run on much
faster schedule through the city
and fine service will be given.
The power has been very poor on
this road lately and is much COM

dates from a recent raise in the
price by the Electric Power CON-
pany, which the railway company

time-worn adage, but it is a true
one, 1t fits the San Antonio base
bali team like a tailor-made and
applies especially to one individu-
al, who went in last Saturday to
illustrate how third base should
really be played, according to
pointers received from Billy Nash,
the third baseman OF the champion
Boston Beaneaters, while they were
here some months ago. This aspir-
ing third baseman conceived the
idea that at the next opportunity
he was going to play just like
Nash.
1t was San Antonio's old foe from
Austin that the locals had spotted
for their first victim of the season
Oh, the Saints we're just ago

a regular copper-lined cinch, double
riveted. They had their plans all
mapped out, and it was useless to
discuss further how to defeat the
nine from Austin. Why? Just
because they had a cinch. The
Saints were going to put in that
third baseman and that's all there
was to it.
1t was p. m. on Saturday
when Mr.. Murphy gave or
ders for the Saints to put theil
plans into execution. The only
matter the Saints expressed regret
for was that of the two thou

qust followed by unususlly interesting
and vslna BILE speech making.

iect Of the evenings discussion "The
Church and Secular Education"
The frat speaker WAS Rev. Hcnry NJ
Nash, ID. D., OF the CsmbEieEs Theologi-
cal School.
Re said the very pith and marrow of
the question was in the relation between
the church and the common school, and
it is something that all should take two
fold interest in, nrst ss a churchman
and then ss an American. lie ad-
vanced the theory that the
church SHOULD reach out and
cooperate with the State and said that
the best method was that IN vogue in
Germany, where the State educates tho

tain hours week o come IA AID catechiso

Rt. REV. Davis Ssgsuus, Bishop OF Lou

AN AUBURN MYSTERY.
John Wilcox Missing From His
Home.
He Left Saturday Morning With
Large sum Of Money-,Just n Year
ago Was Assaulted and Robbed.

Mr.. John Wilcox left home quite early
Saturday morning with the Intention,
probably, OF going to Prov 6snce. He
carried with him quite large sum OF
NJ 9ney and number OF bills which he
intended TO pay, including his city tax
bill. Ho left word with his family
that he would probs bly, be home at noon.
His family were not surprised when he
did not put In an appearance at noon, but
as the day passed begsn 20 have fears for
him. He did not take his korse and car
riogo on account Of bad weather and
roads, but walked TO the electric cars in
Auburn.
As nothing has been seen or heard of
him now for three days there are grave
doubts as to his safety.
All day yesterday Mr.. Paine, brother
in-law of the missing mar, visited the
wholesale produce places on Canal street,
and the banks where Mr.. Wilcox does
business, but no trace Of him could he
found. MIR. Wilcox is q man of steady
habits and very rarely leaves home with
out telling his family just where he Is
going.
Captain Cory has been notified and the
police are making a search. 1t is only
about a year ago that Mr.. Wilcox was
nearly murdered and roohgd of $3.50
