History of Galveston.

The city of Galveston is situated
at the extreme east end of the Is
land of Galveston, and is located on
the league of land purchased from
the Republic of Texas in 1883 by
Col. Menard.
Galveston Island is separated
from the main land by strip of
water two miles wide, which was
spanned by several bridges, among
which was amagnificent steel wagon
bridge. The island is thirty miles
long, with an average width of one
mile. 1t lies east and west, and is
low, fiat and sandy, with cover
ing of soil sufficient to grow turf and
plants, trees and vegetables.
The average height of the island
above the mean tide is eight feet,
but in some sections there are
places fifteen to eighteen feet above
mean tide.
l is said the pirates which infest-
ed the Gulf of Mexico about the be-
ginning of the century were the first
10 learn of the desirability of Gal
weston harbor. 1t was from them
that the Mexican Minister. Herrera,
heard of it, and determined to take
possession. This he did on the 1st
of September, 1916, bringing with
him fleet of twelve vessels.
A fe% days after landing Herrera
set up a government and proclaim
ed himself Governor of Texas and
Galveston Island. After some
time there he and his men sailed
away to fight Spain, and the famous
buccaneer, Lafitte, took possession
of the harbor. He build town
there, and called it Campeachy. 1t
is said that during his palmly days
as a buccaneer there were 1000
men in his following and the town
prospered on the plunder of his
feet of free booting vessels.
United States war vessels finally
captured the town and put an end
to piracy in the Gulf of Mexico, and
the town began 10 develop the legi-
innate enterprises Of seaport.

Remarkable Feat Of a Negro to

Now For The Great Circus.

The Adam Forepaugh and Sells
Brothers Uuon of Greatest Meua-
geries, Circuses and Hippodromes
which comes to Madisonville Satur
day, September D, after a secoud
season $ overwhelming success in
Madison Square Garden, New York
city, seems to be fully justified in
its advertising CLAIMS by the many
good and impartial things said of
it, Every newspaper in New York
praised it to the limit, and Senator
Chauncey NJ. Depew voiced the
general opinion in saying: ''Your
show IS novel, brilliant, up-to-date,
eXhilarating and absolutely clean. 3"
1.-The biggest circus that New York
ever saw, says the World, and
that is just what everyone, every
where, who has seen it says. The
listed living wonders and high-class
acts and races supply enough en-
tertainment to astonish and amuse
nation. I he biggest canvases
on earth are filled with the biggest
collection of rarest wild beasts, the
biggest herds of performing eleph-
ants, the biggest troupes and
schools of trained quadrupeds and
Amphibis, and the biggest circus
and hippodrome companies, who
present splendid acts and races in
three rings, on elevated stages and
pedestals, overheard, and on the
biggest course ever conopled. To
particuarlize would be impossible.
but an idea ef the stupendous scale
upon which the aggregation is con
dGcied may be gathered from the
fact that it employs thousand men
and horses. introduces nineteen
great male and female bareback
equcstrians, has whole comic
circus of twenty-five world-famous
clowns, and, altogether, some three
hundred noted representatives in
every branch of arenic art, from
sprites and bicycles in mid-alr to
supple Samsons on the ground. The
daily morning street parade pre-
scuts many wild beast displays
and magnificent spectacular ef-
lects.

Gov. Lind and Minnesota.

Gov. Lind. of Minnesota, has
been remomiuated by the Fusion
lists He was elected in 1898 by a
plurality of more than 10000, and
By an actual majority over Repub-
licans, Populists and Prohibition
lists of about $4,000, the first anti.
Republican Governor ever elected
IN that State He has hitherto de-
clned TO declare himself a member
Of any party, but this year he has
announced that he is for Bryan, and
is Vigorously working for him.
This fact is considered in Mime
sofa to be Of great Importance, for
Gov. Lind stands not only for inde-
pendent thinkers and voters. but
for a large part of the foreign popu-
latiou. He is a SWede and his wife
is German. There are more than
$4,000 candinavian-born voters in
the State and $4,000 German-born

Great Feeling Against The StuIgis

Sturgis, KY, Sept. 13.-County
Attorney Cinnamond, of Morgan
field, was in town today looking up
evidence for the Commonwealth in
the case against DR.. w E. Clark,
charged with killing Miss Cora
Waller, of Morganfeld, by Il crimi-

No date for the examining trial
has been set, and to attempt a trial
now in Union county might be
dangerous on account OF the strong
feeling against Clark.
Miss Waller was buried IN her
wedding gown, but the family re-
fused to let Holt be Inferred beside
her. Mrs. Waller is reported still

Galveston News Says city VIII
Not be Abandoned

Galveston, Tex Sept lS The
following editorial appears in to-
day News;
"At the first meeting of Gal
weston citizens sunday afternoon
after the great hurricane. for the
purpose of bringing order out of
chaos the only sentiment expressed
was that Galveston had received an
awful blow The loss of life and
property is appallIng-so great
that It required several days to
form anything like correct esti-
mate, With sad and aching
hearts. but with resolute faces, the
sentiment of the meeting was that
out Of that fearful chaos of wrecked
homes and wrecked business, Cal
weston must rise again.
"The sentiment was not that of
bury the dead and give up the ship,
but rather bury the dead, succor
the needy, appeal for aid from a
charitable world and then start
resolutely to work to mend the
broken chains. In many cases the
work of upbuilding must begin over.
In other cases the destruction is
only partial. The sentiment was,
Galveston will, Galveston must, sur
vive and fulfill her glorious destiny.
Galveston shall rise again.
Galveston having been isolated
since the storm OF last Saturday
night, the stricken citizens Of the
town have not been informed as to
the thrill of horror which went
over the world when the news of
the catastrophe was spread The
Associated Press brings the CHEEKY
news that in every town and city
III the United States commercial.
religious and charitable bodies
have organized into relief com
mittees. At present thousands of
dollars and hundreds of cars of sup
plies are en- route and will reach
the sufferers of Galveston Just as
soon as it is possible to shoot them
across the bay. If the desolation
here has been awful, the sympathy
and humanity of a great nation
have been ample, and very soon the
local committees will be enabled to
assist the destitute thousands.
What the News desires most to
say to the surviving victims of last
Saturdays catastrophe is that in
the knowledge Of worldwide
sympathy which is encompassing
US. We must not give way to de-
spair. If we have lost all else we
still have life and the future, and
it is toward the future that we
must devote the energies Of our
lives. We can never forget what
we have suffered; we cannot forget
the thousands of our friends and
loved ones who found in the angry
bilows that destroyed them a final
resting place. But tears OF grief
must not make us forget tour present
dutles. The blight and RUIN which
have desolated Galveston are not
beyond repair; we must not far
moment thing Galveston is to be
abandoned because of one disaster
has been. We have our homes
here, even if those homes are in
ruins. and if we loved Galveston be-
fore how much stronger must that
affection be, and how much more
sacred il must be when we think of
our loved ones, whose dust couse-
crates not only the land but the
