TEXAS COAST FAIR.



Hulen, Texas, October 3O.-The direct
ors Of the Texas Coast Fair have seen
fit to ask that l accept the position OF
superintendent of the culinary department
during their fair to DO held at Dickinson,
Texas, November - TO %, Inclusive. IN
accepting beg to request all the true anu
noble women interested ia the general
health, and therefore welfare, OF our
coast country to cooperate with me IN
making tho culinary department so rep
resentatlye Of the capabilities Of the
women of South Texas that the fair asao-
citation may be thoroughly impressed with
the true nature and Importance OF our
work
Many persons eat simply because they
enjoy eating, without more dignifed
recognition OF the Importance and direct
relation of good. wholesome food 10 their
general physical condition. their equabie
temperament and general good VIII to-
ward all mankind. A well fod man Is
usually we'll liked man because the nat
ural conditions of nourishmcnt have been
met and have contributed directly toward
the development OF his better nature.
Few FULLY realize the Importance OF
good food properly and tastefnlly pre-
pared unless they have suffered the agon-
les OF indigestion, or have noted tho
cross and pessimistic disposition Of those
who are poorly or improperly fed. Good
food precedes good health. and both pre-
cede good disposition and beautiful
life.
In the name OF the health and character
OF our people let me appeal TO you per-
sonally to prepare some article OF food
In a manner to best educate some one else.
We all have our specialties, and by all, OF
us making an effort We can make the ex-
hibltlon of the culinary department Of
such value that every woman Interested
in the welfare OF the home will strive to

ONLY PETTY OFFENDERS
Light Mornings Work for the Po-
lice Court Judges.
Trifling Infractions OF City Ordinances
and vags and Disorderlies Made
Up the Procession.

Theineu who faced Judge Scott this morn
ins were charged with all the misdcmeanors
in the calender, and the convicted, acquit-
ted, dismissed nd held We're about equally
divided.
The first to amble into the prosceniumbox
whence to view the police court spectacle
was udrew Giddings, the charge being
disorderly. II was dismissed. Thomas
Stewart, who attempted to batter down
aud walk away with door Of a house on
Valley street, figured in case that was
nolle pressed.
Charles King, Henry Taylor. Cooper
Brown Eugene Gray, George Gray, James
Henson and Isaac Lucas were pulled on
q charge OF being disorderly, but the case
against them was dismissed. Ida Middle
tou and Rosa Ford We're fined So each
for disordcrly conduct.
The case against George Ridgely and
owen Washington, charged with allowing
drippings from a garbage cart to fall into
the street, was uoile pressed. These two
men are drivers of carts for the garbage
contractor, but the health office asked
the prosecuting attorney not to press the
charge, aud he complied with this request.
Sherman Sanders was brought before
Judge Scott this morning on a charge OF
vagrancy, and would probably been con-
victed had it not been for the pleading
of 4 lady who took n interest in his career.
He was accused by a colored woma n, named
Mrs. Phoebe Shepherd aud her husband,
Johu Shepherd. of having entered her
nd ira.r BpSt trA Inn anI
threatening the man OF the house with a
stick. 1t was whispered around the court
that Sanders had served a term in the
'peu," but the lawyer who was supposed
to have defended him on that occasion
only shook his head when asked about 1t.
Mrs. Sarah j. Carson appeared as a
witness for the defence. She pleaded
with tears n her eyes for the man, who she
said, had worked for her at one time. She
said that she would be answered. BILE for his
good conduct in the future. With pro-
fuse thanks and bows the old lady heard
that her prayer had been granted and the
charge was dismissed.
william Barlosius came to town yester-
day on a bicycle that belonged to n friend.
He couldn't ride well, but was just able to
keep his balance. He was going down II
street, when Patrolman William Riley
called to him TO stop. The boy hadn't been
in Washington long, So he tumbled of.
1t transpired there was no light nor bell
on the country lads vehicle. He ap-
peared in the police court this morning
with blood-shot eyes and trembling lip
and evidences of having been slept but
little in the cold Cell. The judge thought
he had been punished sufficiently ard sem

FEW WARRANTS ISSUED.

lnformations, However, Have Been
Filed Against Garbage vioiators.
The assertion that Prosecuting Attorney
Pugh intended to issue warrants against
about 500 persons for failing to observe the
new garbage law Seems to be greatly ex-
aggerated.
warrants would be issued, but inquiry at
the desk of the warrant clerk elected the
reply that no warra nts had been issued up
to a late hour.
Inspector George a. Howe, of the health
department, who also holds a commission
as additional private in the police depart
meDt, received instructions week or SO
ago TO enforce by prosecutions in the police
court all Offenders against the garbage

cases.

premises to be placed upon the alley gate
and that j proper vessel for the deposit of
garbage shall be pla ced at a point in the

Changers the Only Buiiish Stock, But
Things Had an Upward Ten
dcncy ut the Close.

New York, Aug. 22.-The stock market
after an irregular and rather weak open
ing took a change for the better, and at IL
O'Clock was strong. with an advancing tend
ency. Tobacco broke to SO 1-2 on the an
nouncement that the outside manufacturers
are to meet in New York for the purpose
OF perfecting their organization to fight
the trust.
Later there was sharp recovery to 96a

perienced In borrowing the certificates,
and this frightened some of the smaller
shorts into covering

rose to 1Os L.
The Withdrawal al of the cordage protective
bondholders committee from the contest
with the Waterbury committee, had no
effect upon the company's securities. The
general list after a fractional decline, inl-
proved anywhere from 1 4 to 1 per cent.
The gTangers were the bull of the favorites,
purchases having been stimulated by the
favorable eNorthwestreport for July. During
the month named the company earned ST.

A further advance in prices was estab-
lished at the Stock Exchange after IL

industrials was for the. purpose OF cover

the grangers were principally for the long
account. Sugar rose to 100 Ia, To-
