Further information reveals the
fact that the burglar who entered the
home of Dr. Jameson and others last

the doctor. He took what money the
doctor had in his pockets, and also
the money belonging to a young gen
tleman relative who was a guest in
the home. He also took watch

OF JULY DINNER
At the Prison Camp Near Crystal
Lake-PaIestne Visitors En-
ioyed the Occasion.

The genial Captain Addison always
gives the several hundred convicts
under his care substantial reason to
look forward with pleasure to the
coming of our country's natal day.
This time he invited seventy or more
friends from the outside world to en-,
joy his hospitality In this he was
handsomely supported by that accom-,
plished engineer Col. Crooks, who
sent out train of palace Flats, Civ,
ing his guests free round trip over
the state of Texas new road-Royall
street to Crystal Lake-this last item
is not to be mentioned aloud these
anti-free-pass days. Fifteen minutes
over the best piece of raw road ever
built in Texas landed us to the great
camp, seven miles east of Palestine
Here permanent station is, from all
accounts, to be established. The
camp and vicinity was thrown open
to the captains friends, the latch
string hanging outside from all gates
and doors, except just a few in the
great barred building on the hill.
The Dinner.
A fine lot of expert cooks have
elected to live with Captain Addison,
and on the Fourth these cooks, with
abundant material, constructed a din
ner long to be remembered by those
who tested their skill. Some of the
captains huge household showed
themselves nimble and attentive as
walters, beyond imitation, and
brought for them, after the feast, a
voluntary shower of quarters and
halves. Men can eat more when they
stand up. l stood up; so did George
Wright, so did Henry Davis, so did
jim Ozment-so did we all of US,
though Gilliam's legs could hardly
bear the strain, being the last man
to leave tables that could have fed
several hundred more men. Don't
ask what we had The writer can't
name all the good things in the
spread, though especially requested
to do so in his general commission
to write-up all the incidents of this
pleasant outing. 1t falls short to say
there was an over abundance of bar
becued beef, pork and mutton, bread
biscuits, catsups, sauces, coffee, ice
water, with pickles, cakes and other
pies and things on the side. Many
long years to the captain and his
cooks, and may each year have a
Fourth of July.

The Sermon.


partakers in the best possible humor
along came Doctor Oehler to preach
to the convicts The visitors gather
ed in the corridor, beyond which
through a strong lattice, they could
observe the prisoners and hear the
sermon. There was call for singers
and the writer, though not a distin
guished singer, through mistake or
his part followed the Doctor and d
few others behind the bars, when
suddenly the street gate closed and
he found himself locked in" with
great audience of convicts. Here
was an unusual situation. Here were
men, who under strain of passion and
temper, had raised their hand against
society, which in self-defense had
landed him here. Give minutes
work had wrecked the rest of life for
many of them.) In the throng of up
turned faces it was easy to see that
most of the violent criminals had
reached the penitentiary before mid
die age. Occasionally a man above
fifty could be seen, but he was al.
most invariably life-termer whose
crime had been cOmmeitted in his
early manhood, before he had learned
to put the brake on his passion.
The grand old hymn, America, -
was sung, but it struck me that its
noble lines were not adapted in any
respect to the feelings of an audience
which was in poor condition to chant
praise of liberty no longer theirs.
Doctor Oehler was at his best. His
remarks were delicate and to the
point. The fine and altogether ap,
propriate hymn, "Blest Be the Tie
That Binds more than made up for
the feeble effort to sing America
under strain. So that when the good
preacher with pardonable desire to
test the interest in his visit asked
those who wished to hear him again
to say aye, there was a prompt and
general chorus; one pleased prisoner
cried out" two ayes" showing he
was willing to risk both eyes on the
proposition. 1t was a pleasure to me
a sinner, to see these unfortunates
voluntarily crowd around the preach
er after services were over, shaking
his hand and thanking him. This
must have been more than gratifying
to this good man
