converted to the Christian religion
aud since that time has been
preaching in different states. His
health is almost ruined but bis en-

busy. He preached on the streets
today and will preach again to-
night. Tomorrow he will deliver
another sermon before his depar-

PauIs Valley Court,

Pauls Valley, April 15.-Judge
John r. Thomas opened court
here this morning and empaneled
both the petit and grand juries.
In very elaborate and logical
charge to the iuries of about an
hours length, be said among other
things. that he was holding court
for the purpose of doing business
and that he would open court
every morning at Q O'Clock and
take recess at noon until /: 80
O'Clock and that that did not mean
10 O'Clock in the morning nor 2
o'clock in the evening.
He also stated that the trickster
and shyster had no business prac
ticing their tricky methods before
him and highly eulogized the law
yers that were honorable and up
right, He said that a lawyer, Of
necessity, must be a gentleman,
and that he was just like an egg.

And that b. a language of
some pork fed ph,Ios .r, wanted
to narate it around so as to show
them where he was at" that he
would not stand trickery, and that
no man who tries to do his duty
will fail.
Thursdays and Saturdays will
each have an hour in the morning
devoted to motions, and defaults
will be taken at those times.
In the admitting of--to the
bar he again made some more CON-
ments on the lawyer and told him
that he was moving into a set of
the brightest minded men in the
world,
The opinion seems to prevail
that the docket will be cleared al
this time as Judge Thomas stated
from the bench that he would hold
the full thirty days that are set foi
trial on the criminal docket.
The first case to be called after
dinner will be the case of Will
Owens charged with larceny. The
Elijah Patterson and Jack Hatcher
murder case will be likely to be
the next case tried after that.
