Gonzales County.


Gonzales County
Sinner. Texas: A sad and terrible
tragedy occurred about nine miles
west of here in Gonzales county at
about 10 o'clock Saturday night in
which one man lost his life, being
killed by his own brother.
The following story is obtained
from the officers: Mr.. virenz Marek
and his brother Frank had a dispute
at the home of the former during
which Frank Marek grabbed a 1O-bore
shotgun and placing the gun close to
his brothers body fired, the charge
entering his body near the heart and
producing almost instant death. The
only remark made by virenz Marek
after being shot was 'Tve got
enough" and he fell over and -ex-
pired.
After committing the deed Frank
ran to neighbours house, Mr.. Yaks,
and on entering remarked ooh,
neighbor, what have done? I have
killed virens, my own brother, and
you go or send to Sinner and get the
sheriff"
Mr.. Virenz Marek was about SC
years old and was married four times
and leaves a large family.

fences. close reading of the law may
save much trouble, annoyance and bad
feeling, as many we'll meaning men do
not understand it's provisions:
Owners of Usage oranges, willow. or
any other hedge fence along the public
road, unless the same shall be used as
a wind-break for orchards or feed lots,
shall keep the same trimmed, by cutting
back within five feet of the ground at
least once in every two years, when so
ordered by the trustees Of their respec-
tive townships, and burn or remove the
trimmings so cut, from the road
Upon failure to comply with the
foregoing provisions the road supervis-
or shall Immediately serve notice in
writing upon the owner of the hedge
to trim the same, and if he fails to do so
for sixty days thereafter,such supervisor
shall cause the same to be done at a
cost not exceeding 40 cents per rod y
which shall be collected by the county
treasurer in the manner other county
taxes are collected.'

pianos, it is embellished with portraits
OF the great composers.
This book throws flood of light up
on the whole piano question, for it ex-
plains the difference between real
piano bargains and sham piano bargains,
1t makes clear to any one the necessity
OF securing musical value where pur-
chasing and shows the folly of buying
many OF the pianos now so freely offered
which are, in fact, pianos in tho name

According to the very best informa-
ton obtainable, we pass this way but
once, and when we step into the valley
of the shadow all of our earthly be-
longings will be left behind. Not COW
nor sheep, nor an acre of land, not a
dollar of money, will go into the grave
with us? Why then should men race
through life in mad flight for gold,
brushing all the better things aside,
when at last it must be unloaded at the
tomb? Would it not be better to smile
Il little and do a few good deeds as we
went along? Would it not be better
plan to put a flower into the hand of
some sad-hearted human being strug-
Cling along the road of life, than tc
clinch an almighty dollar until cold
death forced US to relinquish it?

Iowa Industrial School for Girls.

The school for hayward girls in Iowa
is worth study, says the Denver Rocky
Mountain News. A few years AGO it
was not pleasant institution to observe
All was discord and confusion. STRIKES,
and runaways, punished by beatings
and confinement, were always occurring.
The elimination took place in a general
revolt that included the entire school.
Real battles were fought between the
girls and the teachers. The girls ran
away in numbers, and half the police
and detective force of Des Moines was
employed in search of them. The man
who was at the head of the SCHOOL,
political appointee~- hated by every
girl. The proceedings were the shame
Of the state.
Then the present superintendent was
put in charge. His name is Fitzgerald,
and his most prominent characteristic
is faith in human nature-especiall
girl nature. He knows that girls hun
ger for sympathy and affection. He
made sure that all VIII, came in contact
with the girls treated them like human
beings in whom were all beautiful posi-
bilities.
When this man took charge all the
windows of the institution had prison
bars over them. He tore out every bar.
He caused the state to build cottages
for the girls and gave them real homes.
He provided kind women teachers who
were mothers in these families. Instead
of seedlings and whippings and threats
he provided flowers and music. Today
you cannot tell their reformatory from a
well-regulated girls boarding school.
1t is absurd to say that the talk OF
kindness as the secret of success in the
treatment of the hayward or even the
criminal is the theorizing of sentiment
talists OF no experience. The greater
the experience the more faith in methods
of good will, providing there is intelli
gence and moral feeling as well a
experience.
