common thing for soldiers to 60
sound asleep under fire, when they
are not permitted to return the
fire, but must lie quiet, 1t isn't
bravery or recklessuess, but the re-
suit of intense excitement on the

DOT LITTLE GERMAN BAND.

There arrived here on Friday,
afternoon from Shreveport, a Ger
man band of eight pieces, and they
we're put off on the West Side of
the city, and asked for the city tax
collector aud was directed to that
functionary and proceeded to take
out license to play on the street
corners of the city, as has been
done heretofore, and is done in all
large towns and cities of the world,
by travelling bands.
They had hardly got started be-
fore they found themselves on the
East Side of the city, and had
played few bars only of Johnny
Get Your Gun" before Officer
Culley, one of the finest, had the
whole push" under arrest, for
their performance without license.
They we're taken to the city hall
and when it was explained to them
that they we're in double barrel
led" town, and would have to take
out a license over here, too, they
tumbled and pleaded a shortage OF
funds, but would pay it when they
collected the amount from those
who contributed free will offerings
at their open air concerts. DR.
Spearman was in the hall auC
offered to advance the amount, anC
his offer was accepted, and the
band marched out, and was soor
rakiug in money-though homeo
pathic pieces, but they got enough
together to pay the doctor bacl
for his loan,
At night they we're hired to pla,
for the Elks and were well paid
and yesterday they made music il
different parts of the city takinl
up free will collections.
The band is a splendid one, an
all who heard their music wer
charmed with it. We say long ma
all such organizations live to glad
den the hearts of the music lovinI

That Brass Factory.

Secretary HAYS of the Board Of
Trade expresses great hope in land
ing the brass factory here. He
has talked to many of the land
owners and monied men of the city
and while they have not given the
proposition as published in this
paper the attention it should de-
nand, still they stand ready to put
their money in any enterprise that
has the upbullding of the city in
view,
The project has plausible look
upon its face and we hope we will
hear from these gentlemen who
propose to advance the interest Of
our city so materially in the estab'
lishment of the brass factory.

The little son of Prof, and Mrs.
G. R. Bryant, was out yesterday
with a petition directed to Coy.
Culberson of Texas, asking him to
pardon his father out of the peni-
tentiary, who was sent there for
the killing Of Prof, Ellis, the facts
OF which are fresh in the minds OF
Texarkanians, He has secured the
signatures of the leading citizens OF
the city as well as the prosecuting
attorney and many of the witnesses
in the case. The little fellow was
a mere child when his father was
sent to state prison. but he has
grown to a manly boy of fourteen
years and is now enlisted in the ar
duous task of trying to free his
father.

Don't Scratch.

Some time ago the Bowie county
democracy held a primary election
and at that election they voted for
the men they thought best to fl
the places to be filled, and why any
man who calls himself a democrat
can, after voting In these primar-
les, walk up with a scratched
ticket in his hand and vote for the
enemies of his party, we cannot
see.
The people elected Dr.. Elliott
and Charles Moores to Office seve-
raj times, and perhaps if they had
stood before the primary this time
they would have been chosen again,
but they did not, they went of
after the coon vote, are running on
ticket with a colored man and
this alone should make a man
vote against them.
We say to all true democrats,
turn out and snow DR.. Elliott under
and the remainder of the ticket he
is running on, Let Bowie main
tain a white mans government.

3013 These figures were furnished to me
by Lieutenant Gibbons. Z. s. n, and
must be taken as correct
The only state making q showing on tn"
coast is California, with 1886 enlisted men
and officers. Several years ago an effort
was made in Portland and here to organ
ize naval reserve. but we then had Pen
noyer and he would do nothing. The sec
tions tackled on TO the state militia laws
are crude and badly drawn. At present
we have the support Of Governor Lord,
and the navy department, and In a few
days another effort will be made to or
ganize, when / hope we may be more
successful Respectfully, j. p. CLARK.
