Admiral and -Four Ships VIII Join
Rest Of squadron at Pensacola.
Galveston. Texas, Feb, 27.-The bat
tleships sailed yesterday for Pensaco-
la. where they will be Joined by the
remainder Of the North Atlantic squad
ron. At Pensacola they will have a
target practice and they will prob
ably remain in that vicinity for sever
al days, The fact that the ships were
not able to come inside, or rather that
they did not come inside--as there Is
q difference Of opinion concerning
whether they could or not-will be dis
cussed for some time to come and It
is greatly regretted. 1t is safe TO gay
that before another effort to bring
battleships here is made a definite UNI
derstanding will be had in advance to
the effect that the ships are wanted
inside or not wanted at all.
There were thousands of visitors
here and nearly all we're disappointed.
A few went out and were received on
board the ships during the latter por-
ton of their stay here but the great
majority who came hundreds of miles
to see the ships returned disappoint-
ed The visitors, OF course, left a
considerable amount of money here
with the hotels, boarding houses and
rooming houses and other places, but
the fact that they did not accomplish
the object of their visit will, of course,
make them more or less dissatisfied.

FLOOD WARNING.
RlILRoAps WARNED BRAzos
MAY oo'oyr OF ITS BANKS.
OTHER STREAMS STILL RISING.
Very Heavy Rain Has Fallen and Some
Damage Was Done at College
Station by the Wind.

Houston, Texas. Feb. 27-The rail
roads Of Texas having bridges cross
ing the BRACES river have reason to
feel alarmed at the state OF AFFAIRS ex
isting on that stream. The excessive
rains have had the effect of causing a
tremendous rise in that river, and 1t
is not at all impossible that there may
be another overflow AS to the ex-
tent Of such disaster, il can not be
stated, though in 1893, when the river
went over its banks the damage to
property was great indeed. The Hous-
ton and Texas Central railroad would
probably be the greatest sufferer by
such a calamity, as that road runs
through more Of that section of the
country lying in the Brazos bottoms
than any Of the other roads.
Tho weather bureau man at Calves
ton sent ont yesterday afternoon the
following special to the various rail-
road managers:
Flood Warning Excessive rains
have fallen over entire drainage area
Of Brazos river within the past SO
hours, causing rapid rise in Brazos
river and tributaries to above the dan
ger line at all points from Waco north
within So hours. Heavy rises will con
tinue at Waco and points south dur
ing several days. Heavy rise in Col
orado and branch rivers also indicat-
ed. At l n. m. the river at Waco had
risen to height OF 20 feet, and the
water was rising at the rate OF one and
one-half feet per hour. The overflow
mark there Is % feet Bowie"

Al each session Of the Legislature
for several years past attempts have
h.sn mad. 90 amend the state consu-
tuition SO as To allow Of a lottery be-
inc authorized. established aud con
ducted under the laws Of the state.
The grand principal idea in this mat
ter is to keep our money at home in
stead of expending S2OO, 900 or more
every year in the lotteries OF San
Francisco or elsewhere The legis-
lature of four years ago passed a
very good lottery bill, which would
not only have effected that object but
brought in hundreds of thousands
from the outside, as well as beng a
source of revenue to the State treas
ury. This lottery law, being in the
nature of constitutional amend
ment. had to be submitted to The
next legislature, two years ago, fol
ratification and subsequent submls
sion to o vote of the people whether
to allow of a lottery or not Bu
those legislators somehow did not see
the proposition in the same light a.
their predecessors, so they deIiber
ately killed the bill, not allowing o
trusting the people with a chance t.
vote on the proposition at all. Thi
was very arrogant mistake and I'm
Just toward their constituency. Tn
people might have voted it down
anyhow, but they should have bee
given chance to finally dispose O
the question. The result is that an
other bill will be brought up in tn
present legislature, for the PROPOSE
ton will not die until it is SQUARED
met and fairly settled.
