BAILEY GOT mad.
An Incident of the Inquiry at Austin
Comes near Having Unpleasant
Consequence-Prompt Inter-
position Prevents a Pas
sage at Arms.

Austin, Texas, Feb. ga dramatic
Ger was enacted in the Bailey in
vestigation to-day, almost resulting in
a personal encounter between Senator
J. w. Bailey and E. N. Mentz, of
Houston.
The clash occurred shortly after the
Legislative committee resumed con-
s%ideration of the charges pending
against Senator Bailey. MI. Mentz
was on the stand when Representa-
tive Cooke, who is prosecuting the
charges against Senator Bailey, asked
Mr.. Mentz if Col. Cowart, Of Dallas,
had not gone to New York to see
Bailey. Mr.. Cooke asked if Col. Cow
arts visit, though ostensibly to have
his throat treated, was not really
made for the purpose of attending to
some business for the Kirby Lumber
Company.
Senator Bailey, who had entered
the room a few minutes before, rose
and said that any one who said that
Cowart went to New York to see him,
was d liar.
The witness understood that Sena-
tor Bailey meant him and he arose
in his seat and declared emphatically
that he would allow nc man to call
him a liar. He asserted hat he was
not a willing witness, "but so help me
God, I will allow no man to call me
a liar" he shouted.
Senator Bailey started for the wit
ness, who seemed ready to meet him.
Deputy Sheriff White stopped Senator
Bailey and trouble was averted. The
Senator then apologized to the COM
mittee, declaring that he had been ir-
ritated so much during the past few
weeks hat he could hardly help his
action. He asserted that it was hard
to keep him from denouncing what he
knew to be lies.
Representative Cooke retorted that
Bailey had legal advisers who e
able to take care Of his interests.

The BeeChefS and the Fields.

Some fifty years g two country
clergymen, modestly living and serv-
ing their respective charges, and en-
joying themselves the healthful atmos-
phere of country life and rearing their
children in that atmosphere, where
strong physical and vigorous mental
growth are best acquired-the one in
Connecticut and the other in Massa-
chusetts-served God, let us hope, and
were not":-that is they died, leaving
each of them remarkable children, who
Sin their turn''have followed their sires
to the tomb, the last two members of
those two sets of children having died
last week But those two sets of chill
dren made remarkable records in their
day and generation-the Beechers and
the Fields.
One of the Fields sat on the supreme
our bench of the United States
and one of the Beachers became
from a metropolitan pulpit a leader Of
thought in this country.
One of the Fields laid the first At
1antic cable-the first cable of great
length. One of the Beechers wrote
"Uncle Toms CABIN a story which,
if it did not cause the civil war, hur-
ried the country on to it's bloody course.
Both families are thus historic.
They wove themselves into great
events.
A Field compiled the code of New
York, which became the model of the
other states.
Only n member Of the two families
attained to great wealth, and he lost
the greater share of it before his death.
The distinguishing trait of the two
families left by two New England
clergymen was mental vigor, and it
will be many a day before this country
holds two families that enter more ag-
gressively and numerously into its in
ner life.
Every member of b two families,
both large, became an Intellectual
force.
Each one was a reformer of some
sort-an inconoclast who tried to bet
ter what is.
IF two such families are to make their
impress on the future we must look for
them to come from rural ancestry
from the "Mettle Of the Pasture

Lane Aliens beautiful book of this

Hood presiding and Clerk Broadhurst
at his desk, and Aldermen Borden,
Holmes, Kornegay, Lamb, Wrenn,
We'll and Gibson being present.
Chairman Of the street committee re-
ported progress in the removal of the
elm trees; and On this question Judge
Robinsan addressed the board in be-
half of AR. D.. r. Kornegay, asking
that the trees in front of his residence
be permitted to stand. The Board de-
cided to defer the removal for one,
week. Also the same action was taken
in regard to the trees in front of Mr..
JOS. Rosenthal's residence, pending a
proposition by Mr.. RosenthaI to fur
nish iron sewer pipes along his pro-
perty, the city to lear the expense Of
making b change. This matter, to-
gether with the question of doing like
cooperate, is now being considered by
the Board. under a motion to this effect
by alderman We'll, requiring the board
to ascertain the cost and feasibility of
such a course.
Capt. T. w. Slocumb was before the
board asking that the surface drain in
his neighborhood be given attention,
and the matter was referred to the
street committee, with power to act.

ers, but the appointments to these
places were deferred, and the Fire and
Water Committee and Chief of the de-
partment were authorized to employ
drivers temporarily.
The chairman Of the Building Com
mittee called attention to the broken
glass in the basement windows of the
city hall, and suggested that the win
dows be grated for protection. He
stated, too, that there was friction be-
tween the Building Inspector and GER
tain citizens in regard to legal con-
struction of buildings in course of
erection. After some discussion pro
and con, the board decided to sustain
the Building Inspector and the Build
ing Committee.
After auditing and passing the
monthly accounts and pay roll, the
board, owing to the inclemency of the
weather and the:small attendance, de-
cided to defer the matter of amendents
to the city charter and etc., to an adj
journed meeting, which will be held

The Best People

"Who are they? I should say they
are those, and those only, who are
themselves genuine and who are able to
sense and to appreciate the quality Of
genuiness in people and in things. They
are distinguished in the main by reason
of a sense of values-through having
achieved perspective. They do not judge
people by appearances, nor merchandise
by it's price. They are the open-mind-
ed, broad-gauged, sane and simple folk.
whom adversely does not crush nor for
tune make overproud. They are the
elect of earth through the gift of dis
elimination, and with the power of this
discrimination, they are able to select
the best"
