Austen, Texns, April 1895.
The Legislature is now deep
lie the throes of dissolution
and its resolution to adjourn
next Wednesday the 10th, but
house is not likely to agree.
1t is possible however, that
both houses will adjourn on
Monday 18th although there
are some members assert they
will not get away from here
before the 25th.
The Senate has got through
with the appropriation bill and
the house will soon finish up
the discussion on its bill. Both
houses have cut the salaries,
and the aggregate saving will
reach several thousand dollars
and will hardly be felt. The
place for reform appears to be
in the judicial department
which during the past two years
absorbed sixty per cent Of the
entiregross revenue of the State.
In other words out of an APP
preparation Of S5,3OO,0OO for
the past two years the judicial
department in round numbers
used S5,OOO,OOO four fifths of
it criminal business, and nine
tenths of this statisticians say
is directly caused by whisky.
The house Tuesday took up
the fee bill and there was COM
motion and wind tanning from
its advent until the house ad-
.journed. Representative Dash
iell offered an amendment to
strike out county judges from
section two of the bill and
spoke to his amendment. He
showed that 4he constitution
says that county judges "shall
receive as compensation for his
services such fees and perqui-
sites as may be prescribed by
law. Representative Dashiell
went on. to show that under the
constitution any county judge
could sue for and recover every
cent of salary due him under
the constitution. Represent
alive Freeman moved to table
Mr.. Dashiell's amendment which
was tabled by a vote of 80 to
43. Representative Allen offer
ed and spoke to an amendment
allowing the sheriff IA instead
of s deputies, as provided in
the committee bill. Represent
ative Turner offered an amend
ment cutting out all Of section
2, regulating the number OF
deputies, and spoke in advocacy
of the same, Mr.. Thomas
moved to table the amendment
of Mr.. Turner, which was
carried by a vote of 80 to A
Mr.. Thomas then offered as
substitute for Mr.. Allen's amend
ment an amendment allowing
one deputy for every 1000 in
habitants or fraction thereof
Pending further consideration
the house adjourned.
The bill may manage to gel
through but it is exceedingly
doubtful. Senators look upor
it as purely a populist move
and democratic senators jus
now are not in much Of a mooc

CITY WAYS,

1t is curious to note how a
city police force can evade their
duties. Since the Parkhurst
campaign in New York and the
revelations made in New Or
leans, the attention of cities all
over the country has been call
ed to the police departments
and Austin has not escaped.
1t has been a marvel here for
sometime why the police do
not enforce the state and city
laws. 1t is no longer so. The
police here are not sworn to ex-
ecute the laws. The city laws
require each policeman to be
sworn in as follows. Before
entering upon their duties the
seargent of police and l ! dice
men shall take the oath prescrib
ed for city officers, and in i'd
dition an oath to obey all CT
ders of their superior officers,
and to enforce all laws and Or
dinances now, or hereafter to
be in force Investigation
shows that none Of the officers
have taken the additional oath
required and it is the very es-
sence of the obligation. Its
omission of course gives the of
ficers a chance to wink at open
violations without having his
conscience trouble him.

The Pasteur Method.

The death of Pasteur last Saturday end
the career of a most singular man.
lie has succeeded in deceiving NOR
people than any other medical man VIII
ever lived. Great institutes for the treat
lnent of rabies or hydrophobia have beel
erected by credulous people as home TO
patients until they could be innoculatet
with rabies and recover or succumb as th,
case might be. There is no positive evi
dence that his method ever cured a sipgl,
case of rabies, but we do know that he ha.
destroyed some lives and in one case at leas
where the social rabid animal recovered.
Rabies is purely nervous affection and
leaves no trace of disease behind. 1t has
occurred without dog bite, and in highly
nervous individual it might occur from sheep
bite for ought know-if they bite. The
rarity OF the disease is extreme, as there
hasn't been case reported in this state for
years.
Pasteur initiated Jeuner's plan in his in
incubation for smallpox, but he introduced
the virus of smallpox patient directly into
the arm of healthy people and they had
smallpox but in a very'much mider form
than those who took it the natural way.
Now we haye the virus after 1t has been
modified by bovine innoculation, hence we
get bovine virus, which we call vaccine
from the word Udccd, COW. That Jenuer
conferred priceless legacy on mankind
there is no doubt, but that Pasteur has done
any more than to make a name for himself
by stupendous fraud-though he may
have been deceived himself-is equally true.
1t is stated by United Press reporter
who claimed to be on the spot that Pasteur
dled OF paralysis, but his extremites have |
been bloating for some time and he was |
known to have lbumenuria-Bright's dis |
,ase-on Friday, and he certainly died as |
people do with that disease or with some
'ther blood poisoning. According to this
eporter, who may be, and probably is, an
lwful liar, his remains were placed in state
ver stable containing 100 horses which
we're being used by him in the preparation
antitoxine, the new diphtheria cure,
which according to the best information OBJ
ainable Is another humbug. l wouldn't
olson child of mine with it for the world
'iphtheria is very curable under ordinary

Its unusual for me to shed information
this extent, but when you come to thai

1t would be interesting to know the facts,
'wever, relative to Pasteurs death, which J
