NEGRO HANGED IN HOUSTON
Convicted on Charge OF killing Two
White Men Nearly -Four
10y Years Ago

Houston, Texas, Sept. 4.-Marcel-
lus Thomas, the negro who was con-
victed for the killing of two white
men in this county nearly four years
ago, paid the death penalty on the
scaffold in the Harris county Jail a
few minutes before the noon hour
yesterday. The execution, which took
place in the presence of as many as
could be damned into the corridors
of the county jail, while hundreds
were unable to gain entrance, was
pronounced perfect by the sherifTs
OF several of the adjoining counties,
who came to Houston to witness 1t.
The negro's neck was broken by the
drop of about seven feet When the
body was cut down the spectators in
t.ulged in scramble for pieces of

Austin, Texas, Sept. 4.-The
state health department has made
public the August bulletin of vital
statistics, showing that typhoid fe-
yer is on the increase in Texas, Go
new cases being reported for one
month. The bulletin shows the num-
Der of births for the month to be
1897. while the number of deaths
reported was 1868. This does not in
dictate race suicide in Texas. This
bulletin also contains that section of
the proposed sanitary code, which
has been practically adopted, rela-
tive to vital statistics, and which is
considerably more stringent than

WHY THEY QUIT WORK.
Several Interesting Items Taken
From Brownie List" of the

- II. K T. G.
The Brownie List of the II. &
T. G.. for the past month has been
received and several entries make
interesting reading as they show
some OF the things railroad does
TO safeguard the interest and safety
of passengers, and what this road
does TO maintain it's we'll known title
of the "On Time" road.
One of the items tells of brake
man whose services were dispensed
with for violating rule H" this
rule referring to smoking while on
duty. A porter is looking for job
on account of having taken some
booze (the company gives it the re-
spectacle name of 'intoxicants')
aboard a passenger train for pas
'senger. The report does not say
whether the porter received a tip or
not. An engineer and fireman lost
out on account of sleeping while on
duty, though they did their Rip Van
Wrinkle act while their engine was
standing on siding at a terminal
while waiting for train to pass.
Still another item refers to brake
man, who was dismissed from the
service on account of taking his
! leave of absence at a time and from
place at which he had been told
that it would not be consistent for
the company to relieve him, though
he had leave of absence coming.
He probably has more of it now than
he wants.
The Brownie list is not alone for
the dement's, but whenever an en-
ploye exhibits interest in any espe-
cial way that too is shown, and quite
a number of such appear each
month. -Denison Herald.

too difficult for others. It gives bus

AS the business, the politics and
the government of the United States

SOME COTTON TALK.

The average condition of the cot
ton crop of the United States August
pa. as given out by the crop report
ing board of the United States de-
partment of agriculture, was 63.7
per cent normal and, perhaps, rec
ords as poor a conditions as that of
July Is Of 71.9.
The figures given out wednesday,
compare with 76.1 year ago and
727 two years ago, when the total
yield was 11.325,Ss2 bales. The av-
erage condition of the crop for $the
ten years preceding was 1876.
The effect of the report on the
market was not SO marked as 1t
would have been, perhaps, had 1t
not been on the eve of three days
holiday.
Government reports have been
much more reliable during the last
few years, since all opportunities for
graft have been eliminated by Wig
curious action of the department of
Justice some years ago, and conser-
ative traders are ready to admit that
the crop will be a small one this
year.
A few figures from the record
will be of interest just here. The
smallest crop since 1901 was in
1905, when 10,725,60 bales were
raised: still the condition on August
25 that year was 72.1, or "a better
| than this year. The crop was late this
year, especially in Texas, and as
| this state raises one-fourth the crop
OF the country, the late start and
the continued dry weather will quite
| likely reveal the fact that less cot
ton has been ginned to September
than for many years.
In 1905 Texas raised 2,490,1 2C
bales of the 10,725,602 bale crop
and planted 6,945,50O acres. In
1907, when the total crop was H..
| 325,SS2 bales, Texas produced -
| 267,293 bales, though her acreage
/ had increased to s. 1000 acres.
| With the acreage estimated at -
| 100000 acres, Texas may raise 2
! 100000 bales this year, but OF
course the bears will not believe it
