IBERIAN. the celebration Of the
anniversary of the birth of Christ
shall have been conSumated all
over the Christian world, in pray
or, by feasting, by making gifts to
our friends, as typifying Gods
great gift to man.
The institution of this festival
was attributed to Telesphorus,
who tiourished in the year l6l A..
ID. but it was not until the year
1872 A. ID. that positive proofs of
its celebration were found.
History tells that during the
reign of Dlocletian, 800 a. d.
while that Ruler was keeping
court at Nicomedia, that he learn
ed that a multitude of Christians
were assembled in that city to
celebrate the birthday anniversary
of Christ, and he ordered the
Church doors to be closed and the
building fired. All the worshipers
persisted III the flames.
In the present age the 10Th of
December is a day of joy; a day
when families unite, love and hap

Mr.. Heard's Nomination.

The question "Who will be Gov,
ernors" on every ones lips in the
early part of the week was an
on Wednesday on the first
Hot which stood. Heard 211:
snyder Ill; Lawrason G6, and Mr..
w. w. Heard, at present Auditor
of the State, was elected to be the
Democratic standard bearer for
1900.
Mr.. Heard is from Union parish
La, and seems to have very
clean record. Several of our home
people, namely Messrs II. c. SeaIy.
b. I. Christiancy and 1--WE believe)
Mr.. Geo. w. Kimbro have known
him for years and they say that
he is an exceptionally clean man.
In Baton Rouge, Mr.. Heard is
well thought of. The writer was
told of one these incident which
shows the mans nature. 1t was
this: The state officers are gener-
ally paid their salaries on Christ
mas eve instead of the first of the
month, and all try to get in their
reports by December oath, in order
to ge. their money. Last Christ
mas eve many of the state officers
drew their salaries and were chat |
ting in the Auditors office when
Gov. Foster sent in for his salary.
Turning to his secretary, Mr..
Heard asked. elias the Governor
sent in his reports' mo, sir"
was the reply. "Then,' said Mr.
Heard to the messenger, "tell the
Governor to send in his report as
the law demands, and / will give ,
him his cheek !
An officer who is SO careful in ,
the details of his business, will, i
Ne believe, make a good executive. ,

Adjutant General Corbin, through |
whom all orders to army officers |
pass, states that the War Depart
ment has issued no institutions to
Gen. OTIS respecting the application
of the Chinese exclusion law In the
Philippines. The report appears to
grow out Of the fact that since Mn
lister Wu submitted his formal pro
test against Gen. OTIS exclusion or
der, he has repeatedly called the at
tention OF the States Department to
the continuance of the exclusion
system IN the Philippines.

Miss Lula Bryan, daughter Of Mrs. Bet
tie Bryan, and Miss Lena Voorhees,. her
companion, left last night by the South
ern Pacific for New York to take the Pas
teur treatment. These young ladies We're
both recently attacked by vicious house
cat, which had several weeks previous
been bitten by a dog that showed symp-
toms of hydrophobia. The cat few days
ago, without any provocation whatever,
attacked and bit Miss Bryan, infiicting u
painful wound. Madstones were imme-
diately applied, but failed to adhere,
which, according to the theory OF their
application. is regarded as an evidence
that no poison has been left in the sys-
TEN, and this circumstance somewhat ap-
poased the apprehension of the family, but
the subsequent sudden and mysterious dis
appearance of the cat caused a doubt and
ton on the part of Mrs Bryan to take
no chances where the safety of her daugh-
ter was concerned. and with hurried prep
aration the young ladies left last night for
New York to avail themselves of the ia
nous Pasteur treatment.
The young ladies have host of friends
in Houston. who are very much concerned
In their welfare and who will watch with
much anxiety their safe return to Houston
with all doubt removed as to any future
trouble over their recent mlshap.

the city OF Houston is not required to
hold the special election May, 1899, hut
should hold the elections In the odd num-
bered years, as provided in said act OF
March 80. 1899. This. In substance, holds
that the board OF trustees In the city OF
Houston holds over az provided In said
act, until tho elections provided for there
In In the years 1901 and 1908. The only
exception in favor Of Houston in said act
Is that II was not required 10 hold the spe-
oial election In May, and otherwise 1t
comes within the provisions of said act.
am therefore OF the opinion that the
mayor and city council are without legal
authority to terminate the office of any
of the trustees holding at the time OF the
act OF March 30 went into effect and APP
point others instead"
The above is practically all OF the corre-
spondence of Importance bearing upon the
subject and is made public in justice to
Prof Kendall, and throws much light on
the controversy which is now attracting
great deal of interest even outside OF
Houston
