WHO KNOWS THE SPOT
Where the Remains of Dick bowling
Are Burtedf

II any one whose attention may be at
tracted by the above inquiry can give the
desired information they will confer a
favor by leaving their name with The
Post. 1t is sad commentary upon Hous-
ton, yet fact that has been developed
during the past few days. that no one has
been found who can point out tho grave
of this hero OF The late civil war.
The inquiry has been brought about by
the effort now on foot on the part of Dick
Bowling camp TO erect monument over
Dick Dowling's grave.
A representative of The Post meeting
Adjutant Phil Fall. who is collecting the
fund for this purpose, asked him where
he proposed to put the monument. when n
sufficient fund was raised to erect 1t.
I'VE hope to put II over Bowling
grave said he, "if we can find any one
who can point It out TO U.S."
1T is not possible that you, as an off,
Ger OF Dick Bowling camp. do not know
where Bowling is buried?"
I'VE all know" replied Adjutant Fall,
that Bowling is buried in the Catholic
cemetery, but his grave Is unmarked and
since the death OF Captain Jack White.

pany. and the later death of Colonel VIII

THEY WILL GO TO NEW YORK.
LIGHT GUARDS WILL HELP TO
WELCOME DEWEY HOME.
Headquarters of Company TO He Re-
moved TO Second Floor of
Brashear Building.

At an enthusiastic meeting of the Hous.
ton Light Guard held at the armory in the
Binz building last night two important
matters were disposed OF. The company
decided to move its headquarters from
their present location TO the Brashear
building, on the corner OF Main street and
Capitol avenue, and also agreed to make
the ceremonies with which Admiral
Dewey will be welcomed home In October.
Tho meeting was presided over by Cap
tain Mccormick and large number OF
members were In attendance. The propo-
sition to move the armory has been under
definite action In the premises was taken
until last night. The second floor OF the
Brashear building has been leased and
preparations for beautifying the rooms and
getting them in shape by the company are
already ueSer way. The new quarters will
be almost as commodious as were those
formerly occupied by the organization 10
the Armory building, on the corner of
Texas avenue and Fannin street. and every
effort will be made to thoroughly provide
members. A new stairway, leading up from
the Main street side Of the building, will
be put in and other necessary improve
ments will be made, thus giving the com.
pany a place of meeting in accord with
its size and Importance.
The matter OF making the New York trip
spoken of has also been talked of for some
time past, but nothing definite was done
previous to last night, when ways and
means of carrying out the plan were gone
into very thoroughly. When the time
comes to make the trip the company will
have been fully equipped from the ord
nance stores now in the hands of the adju-
tant general and will therefore be in a
position to sustain the proud reputation
secured as a result of the numerous bril-
liant victories gained on the drill field in
the past. A committee, consisting of
Captain Mccormick and Lieutenants Porter
and Frymier was appointed to handle the
details of the matter, such as the secur-
ing OF low rates, etc, and to consider the
advisability of giving a prize drill for the
purpose of raising the money necessary
to make the trip. Another meeting will
be held at the armory next Saturday night
when these matters will be again brought
up and definite action taken.
The presence of the company in the
metropolis when the famous Dewey comes
home will do a great deal of good in the
way of advertising Houston, and for that
reason the plan is expected to prove
popular one among the people of the city.

Shooting ut Humble.

A colored man named Squire Early was
brought to the city yesterday morning
from Humble. where the evening before
he had received several wounds, none of
which will prove fatal, from pistol in
the hands of another negro named Kid
Early was taken to st. Joseph's infrmary.
KID" he says. shot at him six times. but
only three of the shots took effect. one
between the knee and thigh OF the right
leg missing the bone. another through
the calf of the right leg and the third a
slight cutting of the flesh.
1t appears that kid" walked up to tho
hut in the wood choppers' camp where
Early was and with the remark that he
was after the man who had been stealing
some grub about the camp. he commenced
shooting at Early, with the result as
above stated
