PERFECTING THE PLANS,
Young Mems Christian Association
Preparing to Rebuild It's Home

The Washington public was notified
through the columns of The Star a week or
SO ago that the board of directors of tho
Young Mems Christian Association were
completing preparations for the proposed
new home of the association. What these
plans are in detail will be more fully made
known at public meeting which is 10
take place next Friday evening, June III.
at Foundry Church.
This meeting Is to be i'm the nature Of A.
rally, and besides the exposition of The
plan for raising money for the new build
ing there are to be a number of addresses
by several of the pastors of local churches.
1t is expected that one of the most impor-
taRt features of the meeting will be the Sc
lection of some of the members of the cit
lzens committee of one hundred. This
committee is to make up a list of names
of persons of liberality and means with
addresses. and other particulars as TO
amounts which may be expected and IL is
also to conduct the special canvass for
large subscriptions in such manner as
II shall deem best suited to accomplish the
desired results.
With tnls citizens committee as a nu-
cleus, there are to be other committees
such as that of the young peoples soce-
ties, Sabbath school committees, advisory
committees OF pastors and a womans aux
iliary. While none of these committees are
taking the definite shape the citizens COM
mittee is, still lists of suitable persons are
DelnS mace, ana II Is expected IL VIII not
be long before the entire extensive organ
iZation will be in working order. Several
subscriptions have been received since the
last published account, among others one
from Rev. Dr. and Mrs. Alexander Mackay-
Smith, bringing the total amount of SUBJ
scriptions up to $4,000.
1t is expected the plans for the new build
ing will be ready in about a month, and
when the aggregate of $4,000 is secured
the work OF building will commence. At
the conclusion of the Friday evening meet
ing the ladies of the association are to en-
tertain those present.

THE Georgetown Sun says:
"The Texas Supreme Court in the
caste of Eustis ct al VS.. City OF
Henrietta, decided in December,
holds that the sale of for taxes is
void if the tax collector sells for
an amount greater than the law
authorizes him to charge, and
that the owner cannot be requir-
ed to pay taxes as condition
precedent to making the defense,
If the collector mistakes and mis-
states the costs, the sale is void.
Thus is another prop knocked
from under tax titles. There are
too many chances for making
mistakes for one to take the
chances of acquiring such a
title.

FIRST CUT AT SAVERS.

Congressman Sayersis strong
man, but when he entered the
race for governor, he ought to
have requested his gold standard
friends to please keep quiet.
They are supporting him almost
to man, and will be the means
of his undoing in this race
Bonham News.
The above is a fair sample OF
the means to be adopted by the
opponents of Mr.. Sayers to Sc
cure his defeat before the people,
but it won't work. Mr.. Sayers
is true-blue, free silver demo-
crat-one who has proven his
faith by his work-and such puny
attempts to belittle him in the
estimation of the people of Texas,
who know him and are acquaint-
ed with his record as a democrat,
will fail of its purpose. Mr..
Sayers is in no way responsible
for the action Of the gold demo-
Gratis in favoring his nomination,
which seems to be predicated
upon the fact that they regard
Mr.. sayers not only as demo-
crat, but a safe, conscientious,
economical statesman, in whose
hands the affairs of State would
be conducted in strict accordance
with law, right and justice.
Come, brother Evans, be fair;
discuss Mr.. sayers' public record
as democrat; hold him respon-
sible for any short comings, but
do not charge him with things
over which he has no control.
Again, gold democrats have no
voice in making nominations in
Texas; and should they decide
to support the nominees we see
no valid reason for filing an OBJ
lection, as all parties are unani-
nous in desiring the success of
their nominees.

CHRISTMAS FIGHTS.
THE PUGILISTIC SPIRIT CROPS OUT
EXTENSIVELY DURING THE
FESTIVAL.
Tailor ]. NJ. Ward Loses Some Blood in
an Encounter with F. M. Harrison.

Tailor 7. N. Ward Loses Some Blood in
an Encounter with F. NJ. Harrison.
The glad things of great joy,
"On earth peace, good will to
men," was the rule in Brennan
on Christmas day. But there
were several exceptions. Christ
mas eggnog usually promotes
friendships and good fellowship,
but there were several
instances in evidence Saturday
where the. opposite occurred.
And some who imbibed too freely
of the cup of good cheer poured
''the sweet milk of concord into
hell" at the same ratio that they
poured down their Christmas in
toxicants. There will be consid-
cradle azure about the optics of
number of young men about
town as a result of their Christ
mas jamboree and the courts will
have to take a few chips in the
game before all the contests are
settled.
The most serious encounter of
the day took place on East Sandy
street in front of Korff c Glenn
mons market, when at about
$3.50 o'clock Jailor j. M. Ward
was knocked down and consider
ably bruised about the head and
face by F. M. Harrison who used
an ordinary walking cane as a
weapon of offense.
Complaint was made in county
court against Harrison for mag
gravated assault and he was
placed under 500 bond.
The casus belli in this in
stance was not attributable to
an over-indulgence in Christmas
spirits. 1t runs back several
months to the fall term of district
court and involves some revolt
ing records not necessary to
again elaborate. It is sufficient
to say that on the strength of an
affidavit made by Jailor Ward
Harrison was placed under bond
Of $500 to await the action of the
grand jury for an alleged serious
and heinous offense against a /
female inmate in the crazy ward
Of the jail. After an investiga-
lion the grand jury declined tot
return an Indictment, thereby
completely indicating Mr..
Harrison. This was the cause of
the fight on Christmas day.
