THROUGH THE FLOOD.
This Present Status of the Overflow in
Ell PaSO.

Saturday evening a HERALD repor-
ter took a trip on horse back through
East FL Paso and down the county road
beyond Goods place.
In places along the route the water
showed in many places 10 have been
except small amount that was seeping
through the levee bank. The water
was deepest near Dunn'S place and the
| floor of his store was still under water.
| Many of the places had been dyked but
the water was seeping through and a
continual bailiug ana pumping was all
| that saved the property. All the coun-
| ty road betwe en- the city limits ana as
| far down as Goods place had been uu-
| der water, from eighteen inches to four
feet. In many places the road is badly
cut up and washed out, and at Wash
| ington Park The flood had come through
| with great force and washed away
| considerable OF the fence and the water
| has cut a deep hole in the road and run
| through and over Evergreen cemetery
and from mar ks on the fence it showed
| to have been rear eighteen inches deep
there. When the reporter passed a
number OF men were at work in the
cemetery cleaning off the mud and put
ting it in presentable condition. None
of the mbstones had been washed
down or injured and Saturday evening
Inere was only Il IIUllc water standing
on the grounds, which was fast reced-
ing. At uCemstock 5 the water got to
his house by backing up from the rail
road track and his hot house has BEEN
under water and several fruit tree;
looked as though they had been killed
by the water. The water had al re-
ceded from this place before Satur-
day. Only few houses had fallen and
these were adobe jacals. More of the
houses along the road hal ia lea, but
the road house locked as though ready
to cave in.
There was a string of curious people
all day long yesterday vending their
way" down Stanton to see the unusual
sight, and there were enough srecua-
tions, hypothesis, sIppositions, dem
onstr ations, GU sses and stch got off
as to what the water would and what
it would not do, to wreck Il whole
Schaurenhaur system Of philosophy.
The Mexican population of the south
side was highly interested, and were
watching the rise and ingress of the
waters with apprehension mixed with
curiosity, and the gayiy COlored dress
e5 of the women and the ten dollar
hats aud ten cent breeche of the men
added much diversity to the scene
The drift wood that came down stream
was eagerly sought after by Mexican
heads of families, not so much as
souveniers as to supply the means of
cooking many frugal repast.

Resolutions of Respect.

The FL PaSO bar met Saturday even
ing. and adopted the following resolu-
lions on the late Judge B. II. Davis:
To the Chairman of the Bar Associ "a
ton of Ell Paso county, Texas.
Your committee appointed to frame
resolutions expressive of the sentiments
of this association upon the death of
Major 5. IL. Davis, respectfully sub
NIT the following:
Inasmuch as in our midst has closed
the earthly career OF a distinguished
citizen and lawyer, it is fitting that the
sentiments aroused in the profession
throughout the state by this recent loss,
should find expression in our utter
ances. Therefore,
Be it resolved by the Bar Associa-
ton of Ell Paso county, that by the
death of Major B. H. Davis, the state
has been deprived of one born to re-
ceive the virtues of an older ard stur-
der generation and to transmit them
unimpaired and illustrated by his ex-
ample for the limitation of new.
An eminent jurist, his abilities were
the shield of right and not the mas of
the irequita BILE, and law with him was
a profession and rot trade. and was
cultivated as means OF civic useful
ness rather than for individual advance
ment or emOlument.
A soldier of the confederacy, he
drew the sword not for the destruction
of the union but for the preservation
of its principles.
A law-giver whose labors are
wrought into the foundation of our
law, he sought to safeguard the great
principles of justice and of liberty
rather than to weave the humors of his
time into constitutional bonds to re-
strain the energies of coming genera
tiOnS.
Ia private life, digni6ed but unaffect-
ed, courteous but not ELUSIVE, reverent
but not Pharisaical, the remissness of
the times was rebuked by the rectitude
of his example.
We tender our sincerest sympathies
to the relatives of the deceased and as
sure them that their loss is shared by
the profession which be orpamented
and by the state in which he has left
such enduring memorials of his worth
and usefulness.
Be it further resolved, that these
resolutions be presented to the district
court of Ell Paso county and to the cir
cult and district court of the United
States for the western district of Texas
sitting at Ell Faso with the request that
they be entered on record.

THE EIBLE COPYRIGHT.

1t Is Vested in the Crown in Eng
land.
The copyright in he Holy Scriptures
is vested in the crown, aud in England
there are only three authorized print
ers. says Chambers Journal. Oxford
and Cambridge have, by royal charter,
the right of printing the Bible and the
queens printers are licensed to print
TIE sacred books during her majesty's
pleasure, Il license which may at any
time be withdrawn by an order-in-coun-
ell. In Scotland anybody is at liberty
to print Bibles, but no edition may be
lawfully published unless it has been
read and licensed for publication.
All this, however, refers only to the
''authorized" version of the Scriptures.
The expenses attending the recent re-
vision of the sacred books were very
heavy-sometIing like G $1,000, and the
queens printers, who were invited to
contribute a share, preferred not to do
SO. The two great universities alone
therefore, have proprietary rights in the
revised edition of the Bible, and all
editions of it emanate from Oxford and
Cambridge presses. 1t is Il remarkable
fact that, although the revised Scrip
lures have now been before the public
Tor Is years, the old or authorized YER
sion is still She one in general use. The
revised Bible was produced at i'm
mense cost and by the highest scholar
ship of the day and no competent judge
Is likely to dispute that it is more ac-
curate and, upon the whole, a better
translation than the authorized edition.
Yet the Oxford press still annually
prints at least five times as many of the
old version as of the new, and Cambridge
does practically the same. assase. =,

pie would be the biggest GROWERS in
town if their daughters were lost.
Night Captain Ton Bandy roped the
Stanton street bridge and TIED it up

The democratic city administration
have taken to water like ducks. 1t
took them long time to make up their
minds and there has been considerable
mud-slinging going on. but every thing
is fair against the warning waters.
Some mothers think they have more
control over their daughters by letting
them have their own way. These
same daughters will lose respect for
their mothers for not guiding them
with severe bit when they were young
and inexperienced. Reproach is brought
upon the grey hairs of many a mother
for not guiding the daughters foot
steps in the proper path when she was
young and at an age when she was I'M
able to Judge for her future happi-
ness.
Now is the time for several of the

Last evening there sat in the plaza a
man in the heyday of his youth. His
large eyes, which illumined face in
expressively handsome, were Of bril-
lance that indicated the presence of
that invidious and insidious disease
that drives many a tired soul away
from home and friends in the far east
to this LAID Of perenniel sunshine.
Many a glance was given him by SYM
pathetic passers-by as he sat wrapped
IN silent gloom. The soft notes from d
piano over the way, carrying the melo-
dy OF Home. Sweet Home,' touch
ed the weary heart of the stranger,
and glauce at his countenance told
that his minds eye was on distant and
dearer scenes. Presently the strain
turned to Nearer, my God, to Thee. ~
The unconscious irony was too much,
for even in the gathering darkness one
could have seen a tear roll down his
sunken cheek as he convulsively drew
his coat closer around him.
