Austin, Tex, Jan lion Janu-
airy S the Thirtieth congress OF
Texas law makers convened at Aus
tin. 1t seemed on that suspicious
day that even nature herself consplr-
ed to make change in the ordeal of
things legislative, for / am told by
an old correspondent of the daily
press that, for the first time in SIN
teen years, the legislative body pro-
ceeded TO business without Mother
Nature shedding copious tears for
the anticipated calamity 10 be visit
ed on a long suffering and God-fear-
ing people. But on Tuesday the
eighth instead of the winds blow
ing a January gale and the rains de-
scending in torrents to cloud the
augurv of the future and dampen

refreshing rain, like mercy Vls1teo
on an oft repenting sinner by an
ever watchful and long suffering IA

Ter of the Universe it settled down

who is fortunate enough TO get mo
the Texas senate and mix III spiIl'

Tiers of this great state must pause
and consider before he commences
