PRESBYTERIAN UNIVERSITY.

Taylor, Tex, March S.-(Special.)- Jon
Tuesday, March 10. one of the most i'm
portant gatherings in the history Of the
educational work of Texas will convene
at Taylor. Frequent mention has been
made in The Statesman of late of the
Texas Presbyterian University. Char
tered February 10, 1896, the semi-centen-
NAL anniversary of the State, it is found
ed as perpetual monument to celebrate
the event. The plan for it's organization
is new departure in school work. 1t
will not be under any church court, but
will be controlled entirely by those who
furnish the money to endow it. No one
will have anything to say in it's affairs
who is not directly financially interested
in it, the projectors believing that repre-
sentation without taxation is equally as
wrong as is taxation without representa-
ton. At the same time it will be thor.
oughly Christian, the Bible being placed
first among its text books.
The new enterprise has already a large
subscription and charter membership OF
over 100, including some of the most
prominent and wealthy Presbyterians in
the State.
The formal Inauguration of the institu-
ton will take place at Taylor on Tuesday
and Wednesday, March 10 and IL. A
most interesting series of addresses has
been arranged by the board of trustees
All visitors will be entertained free of
expense, and the citizens of Taylor, with
out regard to church utilization, and head
ed by the mayor of the city, have left
nothing undone to make the gathering a
memorable one.. The social event of the
services will be the elegant banquet ten
dered the guests by the citizens Wednes-
day evening at the Commercial hotel.
The railroads have made rate of one
and one-third fare for the round trip to
Taylor and return, and everything
augurs well for a most suspicious and
enthusiastic Inauguration. 1t promises
to prove fitting memorial of the semi
centennial and the progress of the enter
prise will be watched with the keenest
interest

STOLE FROM THE PEN.

Waupon, Wis, March S.--A Wholesale
robbery of the penitentiary contract firm
by convicts in the Wisconsin prison has
been discovered. Convicts engaged in
the robbery received money, various lux
uries and liquor in exchange for the
goods.
For some time past Warden Roberts
has suspected that illicit traffic was being
carried on and discoveries were made last
night which led to the arrest of Arthur
Miller, farmer living near the prison,
and Fremont Fairbank, a farm hand.
r. G. Russell, trusty, employed in
farm works several months ago, ar
ranged with Miller. it is alleged, to re-
ceive and dispose of socks from the knit
ting department of the penitentiary.
Money, whisky and other articles re-
ceived in exchange for the goods were
divided among the convicts.
Miller and Fairbanks confessed and
told where large quantities of the stolen
goods could be found.
Russell. the convict, was placed in
solitary confinement and Miller and Fair
banks were held for trial.

LIBERTY HILL LOCALS.

Liberty Hill, Tex, March S.-(Special.)
Yesterday afternoon at about O'Clock
Captain ID. V. Grant, an old and highly
respected citizen of this place, died, aftei
only few hours illness. His remains
were laid to rest in the city cemetery by
the Masonic fraternity this afternoon in
the presence of large concourse of rela
tives and friends. Captain Grant has
been in the mercantile business here over
20 years.
Yesterday was the day set apart by the
Populists for holding their political pow.
vows throughout the county, but as none
appeared in town it seems they ignored
this voting box.
Mr.. ]. NJ. Grant, of the National Live
Stock bank of Fort WORTH is in town.
Mr.. Leon Harris, a prominent mer.
chant of Goldthwaite, is here for a brief
stay.
Truck farming is the order of the day

would not attempt such step. But ac-
cording. to the English account of the
affair the German firm, financed by the
Transvaal government, had distinct
understanding ~ with Germany to turn
over their property to the government of
that country. This move, however, now
appears to have been blocked and it is
stated today that Portugal is to increase
the strength of her garrison at Lorenzo
Marques in order to accentuate her de-
termination to maintain her position.
AN interesting discussion is promised
in the house of commons when the de-
bate ON the army estimates is in order.
Sir III. Campbell Bannerman, who was
secretary for war in the last ministry,
and who is named as the Scotch sand
bag by the Irish members, will move to
reduce the vote by 1880, this amount
being the special pension of the Duke
OF Cambridge, the late commander-in-
cher of the forces and cousin of the
queen.
.. The first lord of the treasury and
Conservative leader, Mr.. A. j. Balfour,
1t is alleged, recently gave an explicit
assurance that no such pension would
be given and it is openly suggested that
the influence of royalty has been brought
to bear in order to alter Mr.. Balfour's
mind. The government will be cues
toned. later on the latter point, and
some interesting attacks and parties are
anticipated.

soldiers became so excited by the atti-

broke out into open mutiny, threatening
to leave their quarters and join the

diers, and according to last reports it
was believed the danger had been

According to advices received here

Several millions of cartridges, however,
were saved. Nothing definite is known
at this writing concerning the. change of
ministry.
Signor Crispi had an hours conference
with King Humbert at noon and this
has caused much comment and served to
strengthen the argument of those who
intimated that Crispi would have to re-
main in power during the crisis, as his
majesty would not be able to find any one
willing to accept the difficult task of
forming a cabinet. On the other hand,
the friends of Signor Crispi say he is
determined not to continue in Office.
