Some tadpoles recently born at the
London zoo have not the black and
forbidding aspect of the tadpole which
is one of the common objects of coun-
try walk in March. These tadpoles
are largely colorless, and have an en-
gaging way of balancing themselves
on their heads, instead of wriggling up
to each other like our familiar ac-
quaintances Their chief merit, how
ever, is the fact that they are the off
spring of their parents. They come
from eggs deposited by an African
frog, which has the rather doubtful
distinction of being more like a newt
than any other frog. This frog, known
technically as Xonopus Lewis, has never
before condesceuded to breed at the
700, or in captivity, so its young were
very imperfectly known.

ing March 8 last year, and decrease
compared with the same seven days
year before last OF .078.
For the first nine days of March the
movement has been 1915 bales more
than last year, and 498, 422 less than
the year before This makes the i'll.
crease in tho amount of this cotton
crop brought into sight for the 100
days of this season, from Sept. l to
March inclusive, to 787,02S bales
over the same 100 days of last season,
and the deficiency compared with the
same time year before last, ,453, 100.
The total brought into sight during
the past seven days has been Sl,307
against To- III last year, and l28, $3.50
the year before, while the aggregate
for first nine days of March was 1922
800 against 96,156, and 1851. The
total marketed from September to
date is 6 1856, 525, against 1859, 497 and
s, 109, 625 for last year and the year be-
fore respectively.
From this time on last year the
amount of cotton brought into sight
was $50, 1858 bsles, and year before last
925,754. In other words, after this
date last year 70 40.100 per cent of the
crop was marketed, and after this
date season before last 10 25.l00.
The movement since September |
shows receipts at all United States
ports of 5,269,053, against 1867 233
last year and 1924 407 the year before;
overland across the Mississippi, Ohio
and Potomac rivers to northern mills
and Canada, 655,609, against 1861
and 1904 1853; interior stocks in excess
of those held at the close of the COM

son, 1877, 1852, against 3,l76,58l last
year, or an increase of 1.0l0,77l.
Northern mills takings for the past

1t must be remembered that the
weekly, monthly and seasons compai.
isons in Secretary Hester's reports are
mate up to corresponding date last
year and year before. Comparisons to
close of corresponding weeks are mis-.
leading, as totals to close of this week
last year would take in l91 days of
season and to close of this week in
1892, includes 1873 days, whereas to
close of this week this year covers
only 100.

Hampstead. Tex, March 9.-This
morning, shortly after midnight, a
tragedy was enacted here which has
cast pail over the community on &C.
count of the popularity of the victim
and his family, one of the oldest and
most respected in the South. Will
Brown, the 20-year. old son of Capt. H,
M. Brown, employed by the Houston
and Texas Central at Gum Island, had
spent yesterday here visiting his
mother. Having to wait for
a train he walked into
the Ingram restaurant and asked
for some pie and coffee. He remarked
to Al Wright, who was behind the
lunch counter, that the pie was stale.
Wright called him liar and war of
words resulted. Both parties threw
plates and pies at each other. Brown
picked up stool, when Wright came
in front of the counter with double
barreled shotgun loaded with buck
shot, telling Brown he could not take
the place. Brown retorted that he
was uharmed but not afraid,
when Wright fired, literally blowing
the young mans head to atoms.
Wright remarked that it was an &C
cident, and after informing his broth
erinlaw, who is proprietor of the res
taurant, of his act surrendered. For
safe keeping he was hurried off to
Houston and placed in jail. The dead
boy was unusually popular on account
of his jovial disposition and witty
sayings.

the note, it would fall due al
above STATED, at 200 months from
date. The premium 81 ,160) would
then be paid in addition to the annual
interest, which had been before paid
for the premium paid would be at the
rate of SIS 80 per month on 5000 pei
annum which, added to the annual in
) terest S156, would make the sum o.
S225 60 paid per annum for the use Of
the sum borrowed which would be al
the rate OF about 10 per cent, which
being in excess of the lawful rate
would make the note void for the in.
terest, and all payments made as in
terest, should be credited upon the
principal.
If Abbott had desired to pay off the
note before maturity OF the stock he
must in addition to the annual inter.
est have paid l s of the premium fol
each year that he had the use of the
money. If, for instance, at the end OF
the first year ne wished To pay the
note he must have paid the principal,
$l440 and for the use of it for
that year also pay S145 in
addition to $l56 interest already paid
as interest for its use during the same
time, which would make the sum OF
$30l, fraction more than 20 per cent
on the sum borrowed. Abbott could
not discharge this note at any time
without paying more than II per
cent for the money, hence, it was un-
questionably usury.
When this case was before this
court at a former term it was consid-
cred alone upon the last proposition
A mistake was made in the calcula-
ton by which the annual interest was
omitted from the estimate of the sum
paid for the use of the money, and
thus it appeared to be less than IL
per Cent on the money borrowed. The
court under this error held the con-
tract not to be usurious, but the mis-.
take is evident to anyone reading the
opinion, The court of civil appeals
found that Abbott paid as interest on
this note the sum of SIS, and that in
June 1891 defendant association de-
clared his seven shares of stock ma
tured and fixed a value on che
same at $138 so per share, which was
paid to other stockholders of the same
SERIES At this price. the seven shares
would amount to 1884 so. The note
being usurious, Abbott was entitled
under the law to have the money paid
as interest applied to the payment Of
the principal and that the balance of
the note be satisfied cut of the sum
due him or the stock. Adding to the
$715 paid as interest the sum of $934.-
so due for stock would make the sum
Of Sl649 so, from which deduct $1440,
the principal of the note, and we have
the cum of $209,50 balance due to
a boott in June, 1891. This sum he
had right to receive, together with
bis six shares OF STOCK of the fifth
series, and he will 90 entitled TO re-
csive interest from the first day OF
July, 1891, on the balance due him,
that date being the most definite time
we can arrive at from the facts
Judgment is reversed and rendered

ing the Injunction, for the six shares of

POPULIST CONVENTIONS.
CHAIRMAN ASHBY ISSUES A CALL
IN POPULIST ENGLISH.
Precinct Meetings on April 20, County
Conventions May S, and the Great
State Convention on the
10th of June.
Special to The Statesman.


Font WORTH, March 9.-Chairmar
ID. 5, p. Ashby of the Peoples party
has issued the following call for a con.
vention:
To the Officers and Members of the Peoples
Party of Texas
AT a meeting of the executive com.
mittee of the Peoples patty, held in
the city OF Dallas on Feb. IS, 1894,
alter due consideration and upon the
advice OF many leaders of the peoples
cause then present, by the invitation
OF your committee, it was unani-
mously determined and resolved
that the state convention of
the Peoples Party should be held
June 20, 1894, and in this connection
II was recommended that precinct
meetings, or conventions, should be
held Saturday, April %. 1894, and
county conventions for the purpose of
sending delegates to the state conven.
tlon and district conventions when
called should be held Saturday, March
5, 1894.
The state central committee was
thereupon authorized to select place
for holding the state convention and
required TO make all the preliminary
arrangements therefor and give timely
notice thereof. The following basis of
representation in the state conven
ttons was fixed and agreed upon, to-.
wit: Each county shall be entitled to
one representative for every 100 votes
and traction thereof cast for the Hon
T.. l.. Nugent for governor at the last
general election; provided also, that
every county in the state shall be en-
titled to at least one delegate.
The committee respectfully anu
earnestly recommend to our people
the duty and necessity OF thorough or
ganization. Our people are, therefore
advised TO hold nominating conven.
tions as early as local surroundings and
exigencies warrant in every precinct,
county and district of the state and
nominate Peoples party candidate
for every elective office from constable
to governor, with the exception of
district judges, and judges for the
other higher courts of the state. AS
to these it was the sense of
said meeting that such officers
should be elected for their know
ability, integrity and fitness, and not
because of partisan zeal or party
tealty. Therefore when we cannot
from our own ranks offer to the people

The consul general denounces the affair

that il is entirely justifiable in view of
the fact that the old Egyptian method
