GALVESTON TRAGEDY
RECALLS THE TIME WHEN MRS.
KATE GALLAMER
Whose Maiden Name Was Kate Mur-
phy, Taught school I'm Houston,
over Twenty-Five Years Ago.

Since Il has been stated that Mrs. Kate
CaIIaher. the victim Of Gaiveston's recent
tragedy. formerly taught In the tirst pun
lie school In Houston, great many nav
tried to Identify her.
The records OF the public schools fap
10 disclose her Identity and the oides'
teachers In the present system OF pupha
schools, those who started In with the
schools from their organization, do not re-
member when Mrs. Gallaher taught here.
The fact is that Mrs. Gallahers career
as a teacher In Houston antedates the pres
ent system OF public schools
1t il true, too, that she taught In the first
public school ever started in Houston, but
II was In a school that formed a part OF
80 called public school system that was
started here during the administration OF
H. ]. Davis as governor. about 1869 or 1871.
She taught here az Miss Kate Murphy CO.
temporaneously with Miss Kate Aldridge.
now Mrs. George Kidd, and members OF
many OF the old families OF Houston WIZ
recall with happy recollection their schooi
days under the tutelage Of pretty Miss Kate
Murphy.
Miss Murphy's elder Sister, now Mrs.
Mary Fitzgerald, preceded her to Houston,
and her husband. David Fitzgerald, died
here In the yellow fever epidemic vi 1867.
Kate was then In a convent In Philadel-
phla, and being IN delicate health. change
was recommended and her sister, Mrs.
Fitzgerald. brought her to Houston. ana tho
change Immediately improved her health.
Being well equipped intellectually, she

her arrival. firs, In the basement OF

ana street and aftcrward she taught In n
little brick building that stood on tho cor
ncr OF Travis street and Texas avenue.
about where Dr. Hodges office 10 now To-
Gated. II was here that she had MS pupils
the daughters OF some OF the best families
OF Houston She was then scarcely 20
years OF age.
The first public school In which she
taught was located on the site OF the old
Jewish gynagcgue. corner OF Prairie and
I.aBranch streets She taught here with
Mrs NJ j. Young mother of DR.. S. o.
Young and Miss Yancey, both OF whom are
remembered by the older citizens OF Hous-
ton.
IL was In the carly seventies. not later
than 1874, that Miss Murphy moved to Gal

THE SALVATION ARMY.
NEW OFFICERS ARE IN CHARGE IN
HOUSTON.
Captain ana Mrs. McKcKfnxfc-IIoyv
Salvation Army People Are
Paid - Their Work.

Captain and Mrs. Mckenzie, formerly
Of Temple, Texas, have been transferred
from the latter place to this city. They
take charge Of the Salvation Army work
here and the people Of Houston will well
come them. as they are people fully con-
secrated to the cause OF doing good.
Rev. II. l.. Dale Presbyterian minister
of Temple. n speaking OF the work done
by Captain and Mrs Mckenzie at Temple,
said
The captain and his worthy helpmate
have won the confidence and esteem OF the
best people in Temple. Not only have these
good people won the confidence and esteem
OF the Temple people, but in Austin and
Dallas. where they were previously sta
toned. They have made many friends and
many converts have been The fruit OF their
labor. May their labors in Houston be
equally fruitful and may the Christian
people assist them In this good work"
The Salvation Army here Is at present
without hall In which to hold their meet
ings. but Captain Mckenzie Is working
hard to secure one.
AS inquiries are frequently heard as to
how these Salvation Army people are paid
tho Following may be OF Interest,"
Only the captain In the Army here
draws any pay, which is fixed at 81 per
week for single men and $40 for married
men. They can not draw this salary, how
ever. until all other debts, such as hall
rent. lights, etc, are paid In other words,
they do not draw a cent until all other LA
bilitles are settled, and il often happens
that the officers In the Salvation Army go
for weeks without drawing cent OF
money. and the rank and file OF the Army
draw no pay whatever. The active mem
bers you see on the street at night holding
open meetings draw no salary at all. They
depend on contributions. The soldiers Of
the Army visit the sick and rs far as pos
sible help the needy poor"
AS 1t Is the poorer class who. as rule.
attend the Salvation Army meetings, the
collections OF necessity are very small.
What tangible results have you OF the
good you accomplish IN IA religious way?'
was asked Captain Mckenzie.
Those who profess conversion with us
are but small proposition OF the people
whom we reach some times with a random
shot that finds Judgment in the soul and
directs that party to some church where
he can profess Christianity without his
pride revolving against II as would be the
case with him In the public streets Go
! among the churches and ask how many
converts are directly tracsable to Salvation
Army meetings as having sowed the first
seed and you VIII find the tangible results
of our work"
