THE RED MEN.

For the benefit of the children
of the forest who inhabit the
happy hunting grounds of Bren-
ham and vicinity the following
account of a neighboring pow
WOW is reproduced from the Rich
nond Coaster:
Shawnee Tribe No. 80, hide
pendent Order of Red Men, had
high old time last Monday
night. Six pale faces were adopt
cd into the tribe after undergoing
many narrow escapes and hair
lifting experiences such as only
fall to the lot of those having
the temerity to invade the sacred
precincts of the reservation. No
deaths occurred, however, and
though several scalps We're par
TALLY removed the hirsute adorn-
ments of the victims offer no
visible evidence of their awful
trials. The wigwams of the
braves were all occupied. A
delegation of about a dozen
braves from Columbus was pres
ent, and with grunts and ejacu-
lations of approval encouraged
the home tribe to torture the in
vaders. After the war dance and
the decision of the council to al
low the poor trembling victims to
live, the tribe and its visitors re-
-paired to a grand dog roast
which had been especially pre-
pared by the squaws for the oc-
casion. On account of the scar
city of dogs, however, chicken,
turkey, ham, roast pig, salads
and many other viands of various
kinds to allure the taste had been
substituted, and they were de-
voured with the rapacity becom-
ing warriors whose appetites had
been whetted by contract with
sthe.enemy.

prlce OF Marriage permits.

Apropos of the views of Sena :
tor Colquit, quoted in the BAN
NER a day or so ago, wherein
that gentleman contends that
fee of 81 is the limit set by law
for issuing marriage license, the
views Of County CLERK Law,
of Galveston, may be in
teresting reading on the
other side of the question. Mr..
Law says: Under the new
fee bill, as l understand its in
depreciation, we are not only al
lowed, but compelled, to charge
$3.50 for its issuance and re-
eording." The bill specifies 81
for issuing q aFriag e
license and so cents for
recording return of any writ re-
quired to be returned for record.
Now every marriage license is
required to be returned to be
filed and recorded and kept in
this office. This certainly con-
stitutes it a writ, and under the
law there is but one way to- treat
writs in the charging of 90 cents.
If the law is defective, or the in
tentiops of the fee bill makers,
contrary to this Interpretation, /
am not TO blame for it.
g 1t is my purpose to abide by
the law and l have no power to
act upon my own responsibility.
The law demands that no re-
bates be paid from this office and
designates this act as INSIDE
meanor- The penalty prescribed
is fine of not less than S25 nor
more than $500 for each offense.
Nov if I was to interpret the law
as meaning 81 charges for mar
rage license and the proper au-
thorities decided definitely that
the Interpretation calls for S1.5O,
then l would be held to account
for as many charges of misde-
meanor as licenses had been is
sued at the ST per-"

A Talented Lady Minstrel Director.

The Lagrange Journal says:
Mr.. George Wilson, the talent
ed lady minstrel director, was
here few days last week for the
purpose of putting on a minstrel
with our talented young ladies,
but owing to Xmas being so near
at hand, he was unable to secure
the cast. Mr.. Wilson came to
our city with the most flattering
press notices, letters and Gre
dentials. Among them was the
last entertainment, which he put
on at Yoakum a few days ago,
and which was a bowling sue
cess, having a cast of 80 of Yoa-
kum's, fairest damsels. This is
something of a novelty, seeing a
genuine negro minstrel given by
young ladies, and home talent at
that. His letters and press COM
ments show he has been packing
the opera houses to the doors
everywhere he has been. The
reporter CHANGED to see two of
Mr.. Wilson's entertainments.
and can safely say if he makes
arrangements here, it will be the
browning feature of the theatre
cal season. Mr.. Wilson is sure
he can secure a cast of the
many talented young ladies of
our city, and has been induced
to come back, which, he informs
US, will be after Christmas. The
entertainment will be given for
some local benefit.

ATTEMPTED POISONING.
Bill Thompson Finds London Purple in
his Grub Basket.

Since Minnie Lochridge put
rough on rats on Jack Norman S
mustard and was sent to Hunts
vile in consequence the business
of poisoning has been at a deeid-
ed standstill.
Once more the poisoner bobs
up serenely and resumes BUSH
ness at the old stand.
This time Bill Thompson, col
ored, who keeps up the night
fires at the oil mill, is the individ-
ual who it seems has been mark
ed for slaghter by the vendor of
''knock-out drops.
Bills duties are such as to re-
quire his entire time from the
going down to the rising of the
sun, with a brief time for lunch
at the midnight hour. Every
night Bill provides himself with
a lunch, brought from home in a
little tin pail which hangs on a
convenient peg until the mid
night repast is due.
Night before last when Bill sat
down to lunch he noticed Pc
culiar tinge to his biscuits. He
at once became suspicious and
carrying the victuals near to the
electric light, discovered that
the entire contents of the bucket
had been sailed down with a
dark looking powder, which on
being examined by the superin-
tendent proved to be a sufficient
quantity of London purple to
cause the death of forty men.
There is no clue to the identity
of the poisoner.

Cheaper Matrimony.

For the benefit and encour-
agement of numerous impecune-
Gus young men with empty
purses and matrimonial inten-
tions the statement of Senator
Colquit concerning the lawful
price of marriage licenses is
herewith given. He says:
81 see that a number of coun-
ty clerks have said they are still
charging S1.50 for issuing and
recording marriage licenses. The
attorney generals Office has, I
see, given an opinion that the
charge of 81 in the new fee bill
for issuing and recording mar
rage licenses is to be full COM
pensation for all labor the coun-
ty clerk is at in this connection.
The attorney generals opinion is
certainly correct if the legisla-
tive intent is worth anything in
getting at the meaning of the
provision alluded to.
The Senator then gives a his
tory of the civil fee bill legisla-
ton, citing authorities, and con-
oI,,l0e, 11xy covfye.
To charge 81. 80 is an extortion
and violation of the law; clearly
so, if the intent of the legisla-
ture is to be considered at all.

SHOP LIFTERs.
L. Fink Discovers Pair of Negro Eeipto-
maniacs in his Mercantile Estab-
lishnent.


The propensity of certainmem-
bers of the colored race towards
kleptomania is we'll known. The
old song goes, "Some folks say
that niger won't steal, leav-
ing the impression that IN the
opinion of the majority he will.
And the cumulative experience
of the past is to the effect that
given an opportunity the average
coon is a born pilferer. There
may be psychological reasons for
this ruling passion Of the race
found in their earlier environ-
ments during the regime of
slavery, but if SO, the process of
evolution to a higher order of
integrity is remarkably slow.
Saturday afternoon L. Fink, a
Hebrew merchant who conducts
a mercantile business at the COR
ner of Main and Douglass streets,
noticed two suspicious looking
negroes lettering around his es-
adjustment. They were ostensi-
bly, on trading expedition, but
the store keeper noticed that they
looked a great deal and bought
little. Finally when the clerk
who was trying to wait on them
had crossed to the other side of the
store for some article, one of the
negroes was seen to swipe a
pair of pants which he quickly
concealed beneath his coat. The
proprietor pounced down on him
and made him disgorge, not only
the pants, but also a shirt stolen
from Mistrot Bros. Mr.. Fink, in
endeayoring to detain both ne
groes until the police arrived,
succeeded in letting them both
escape.

Some Bad School Boys.

Little VIM. Schafer, an atten-
dant on Prof. J. R. Holmey's
private school, is about to lose
the sight of one of his eyes as
the result of some rough treat
ment received at the hands of
two of his schoolmates. His
story is to the effect that one of
the larger boys caught and held
him while a smaller boy struck
him in the eye with a stick. DR..
J. R. Williamson who dressed
the wound is not quite sure yet
of being able to save the eye.
