that the Court painters of Spain have
not been the greatest masters Of the

that the Royal Academy of Madrid

times, suggest a striving to achieve

Jose Ramirez, Under $3.50 Bond, De-
cIared to Have Forfeited It-First
Case in Eight Years.

The first instance of forfeiture of
bond by a person under arrest on
charge of a criminal offense that has
occurred in the court of the justice
of the peace at Brownsville in over
eight years. was reported this morn
ing by Magistrate Valentin Gavito.
This was the case of Jose Ramirez,
who is accused of forgery. On Janu-
airy I'd, the signature of Louis Kowal-
ski was forged on a note for $25,
Mexican money, which was cashed at
one of the local banks.
Ramirez was accused of the for
gerry and not long since was arrested
He had a preliminary hearing before
Magistrate Gavito and was granted
bond in the sum of $3.50, which he
gave with Santos Valdez and Manuel
Barreda as sureties. Yesterday
morning at ten O'Clock was the time
set for Ramirez examining trial, but
he failed to appear After waiting
for him for some time, Magistrate
Gavito sent an officer to his home in
search of him, but the mother of
Ramirez stated to the officer that he
(Ramirez) had not been at home
since last Wednesday, 1t is the sup
position of the authorities that Rami-
req has gone to Mexico.
Magistrate Gavito stated tbs morn
ing that, during the eight years that
he has been justice of the peace of
this precinct, this is the first instance
of any man under bond to appear in
his court, FORGETTING his bond

The final election came. OF the twenty

The new gendarme OF the district had
been instructed by the foreign officers in
charge Of the gendarmerie reform school
at Salonica, and he knew therefore that
when he discovered the corpse OF a Chris
tian In the high road he must report the
fact In just the same way as he would II
the dead man had been a true believer.
Equality was to reign in the Ottoman en-
pire. So the k~aimakam. or mayor, OF the
town outside OF which the body was found
received a visit from the sendarme.
The body was Identified as that of a
Greek named Perioles, a pig dealer and
buyer OF cocoons. a man OF 4O-odd years,
with a wife and eleven children and grand
children. Though In the matter Of family
and personal appearance Pericles was IN
mistakably a Greek. he differed from the
great majority Of his race in the quality
OF brain matter contained in his fat round
head.
He was q reasoning man. In politics as
well as in m he took views that
were practical. He was possessed Of no
visionary ideas about the race to which
HI belonged. He did not believe that he
should swindle and lie. as one has TO do 70

WAS not a man to find continual excuses
for the ignominious flight of his people
in the late war with Turkey. Neither dld
he boast for the future that every HELENE
would sacrifice his last blood drop on the
altar of Cretan independence. So they
called him a coward. And in the streets
they tainted him with such names as
bulgarian and Armenian" splitting
after they pronounced these words.
1t was at the time Of the elections for
the first Ottoman parliament. The vot-
ing district had been so arranged by the
government that neither the Bulgarians
nor the Greeks could bring in a majority.
These rival Christians were to cut each
others threats, politically speaking, while
the Turkish delegate should ride in upon a
solid Mohammedan vote. There was no
chance for the Christian nominee.
This the Bulgarians saw, and being prac-
tical people some of them took no interest
In the election, while others voted in the
prellminaries for the best Turk who was
! proposed. But the Greeks could vote only
for members OF their own proud race.
They were going to have their rights!
They would meet at the churches and go
In a body to the polls; this would show
their strength and valor. They flourished
revolvers and long knives, which the new
order of things permitted all men to carry
| But they were sure OF winning the cleo
ton In any case by shear weigh Of num-
bers. The Greeks. they numbered thou
sands, a hundred thousand, in this dis
trict alone. while the BulEarians and the
Turks could be counted. they said, oh,
on the fingers.
At one Of the meetings of his party
Pericles pointed out that it did not matter
what the numbers of respective
ties were the Young Turks meant to have
the election. They meant to have q ma
jority Of Mohammedans represented in the
parliament from Macedonia as well as
from Asia Minor.
This statement set the meeting In a
tumult Some Of the assembly were ready

was an outrage. Greeks would have their

first. The bishop would write at once to
