Mr.. Douglass told me, in the

was cured. Had he not done
this, no statements concerning
his cure should have appeared
in print. He also told me that
he had had these spells for only
four or five months; since then

congregation Of the Pleasant
Valley Methodist church assem-
bled for worship. The Rev. Mr..

advertised to preach, and the
attendance was large. / arrived
shortlyIbefore the shooting took
place and entered the church.
Before the preacher had opened
the service rapid firing was
heard without the church. i

but with others rushed out to
ascertain the cause. We found
two young men dead and one
dying. The latter was shot in
/ the right thigh and mortally in

Augustus A. Garrison and
Frank Jones were dead and
young Tom Jones was thought
to be dying. Gus Garrison
opened the battle by shooting
Frank Jones, killing him al
most instantly. Tom Jones
then opened fire on Garrison.
The latter returned it. Garri'
son was shot and killed, but be-
fore dying he shot Tom Jones
in the hip, thus killing one and
perhaps both of the brothers.
"A young lady had been
wronged by Frank Jones, and
Augustus Garrison, meeting
Jones in the church yard, de-
termined to avenge the wrong,
/ A brother of Garrison was an
eyewitness to the shooting, but
was unarmed. After his rela-
tive fell the young man seized
the revolver from his nerveless
fingers, but did not get to use
it. All the parties are of the
highest social standing in the
community"

If you only knew what thousands
of people have learned you would
suffer no longer. Surgery has been
the only radical help for hemorrhoids

fails. The discovery that the COM

troubles, makes it easy to do what
operations have frequently failed to
do. Tabler's Buckeye Pile Ointment
positively cures every form of piles

Four Gay Young Men Out on an Ex-
Densive Lark.
Yesterday afternoon four well known
young men of this city hired a yellow
trap and a big span of blacks from Free
man Bros stable and started out to get
a little fresh air. They were well sup.
piled with spirits of high roller life, and
after driving around some time, hied
themselves to South Austin.
After crossing the bridge the team be:
came as lively as the young men and
finally ran away and when stopped the
trap was minus two wheels and one OF
the young men had badly hurt hand
They propped up the axles with heavy
poles and drove back to town. When
they arrived at Hatzfeld's corner they
got into dispute as to whether they
should drive up the Avenue or go down
Fifth street to the stable. During the
argument one of the parties grabbed the
lines, and starting up Congress. avenue
the horses became unmanageable again
There were a number of carriages stand
ing in front of Hatzfeld's, many of them
occupied by women and children, anc
as the frightened team plunged and
swerved around it looked as if a serious
accident was sure to happen. The wo
men and children all jumped from theil
carriages and sought safety on the side
walk. About this time a cOlored man
from Freeman's stable came running w
and took charge of the team.
The next time the young men go of
on jamboree they should by all means
hire yoke of oxen.

Adjutant Generals once.


The extracts below, taken. from Adjt.
Gen. Mabry's report, show that the peo-
ple of Texas, as expressed through their
law making body, are in favor of trans
ferring to the Volunteer Guard the duty
of unfolding the majesty of the law on
occasions of great emergency, and proper
provisions should be made for their
maintenance: .,.
The constitution provides for militia
force-its organization and discipline; and
the law is, that all able-bodied male cit
liens between the ages of IL and 40
years, unless specially exempted, are
liable to military duty. Therefore, I'M
der this law there can be but two syss-
tems-one compulsory. requiring all male
citizens liable under the law to perform
this duty; the other voluntary, whereby
a few may fulfill the conditions required
by law" But because of business de-
mands and its obligations, and other po-
tent reasons, the great body of our cit
liens do not find it profitable, or do not
wish to perform this service subject to
draft on every great emergency, when
they can be relieved of 1t by payment OF
a mere nominal tax to be applied to the
encouragement of the few who will vol
unfairly undertake to perform all mill,
tary duty under certain conditions, Ihis
is evidenced by laws passed by their legal
representatives, embodying sucn an
agreement, and an appropriation for car.
rying into effect this agreement is bu'
utilizing this tax.
| In the execution of this implied trade
or contract, the following law wss en-
acted, viz: Articles 3242 to 1851, In
elusive. Thus the Volunteer Guard IL
authorized by law for reasons and pur
poses therein named, and provision made
for their organization, discipline ant
maintenance. I will here quote the ar
ticles specially bearing upon the agree
ment above mentioned:
"Article 3242. The militia of this state
shall be divided into two classes, to b'
known and designated as follows:
"First-The reserved militia las au
thorized by the constitutional.
"Second-The Volunteer Guard" (ai
per implied agreement.
Articles 3243 and 1924 respectively de
scribe what the reserve militia and TIM
Volunteer Guard shall consist Of-the lat
ter by voluntary enlistment. Now not,
the following language: "Article 3292
The Volunteer Guard shall constitute thu
active militia of the state, and whel
necessary to resist invasion, quell insur
rections, or to aid the civil authorize
in the suppression Of riots and the execu
ton, of the laws, shall be the first caiiet
into service"
The contract is made binding. by stat
utory enactment, and in good faith pro
visions ought to be made for its execu
ton. A sufficient appropriation shoul'
be made to properly equip, maintain an
train the Volunteer Guard, 80 that the;
can effectively perform every duty whicl
the state may impose.
To determine whether the Voluntee
Guards execute well their part, visit thel
annual camps of instruction and tnel

nosed duties performed under the re
