J-yMES ALBERT HHWBOME.
The Writ of Error Argued at Wash-
ington for a New Trial in
Hie Case.
Major Ghas. B. Pearte United
States attorney for the northern dis-
trict of Texas arrived yesterday from
Washington where he went with Judge
W. H. Leasing to argue the writ of er-
ror in the case of James Albert New-
some who was tried at Waco on De-
cember 8 1887 and found guilty of
robbing the San Angelo and Ballinger
atago and the mail pouches carried
v thereon by force of arms and was
sentenced to life sorvitudo in the Uni-
tedj.ta.es prison at Albany Now York
where the defendant now is Argu-
ment was heard before Justice L. Q.
O. Lamar February 25 the judge re-
serving hia dee'sion. The writ of er-
ror is based almost entirely on an affi-
davit made by W. S. Martin a juror
in the case who states that he was in
iavor of acquitting tho defendant but
the rest of the jury persiadsd him
into the verdict upon evidence as he
alledges ''which ought not to have
been considered by the jury and said
conviction was and is unjust."
Major Pearre in replying to that
- clause in tho affidavit says "It seems
to me that the juror has placed him-
self in contempt of court by making
jjaad swearing to the affidavit' Judge
Leasing remained in Washington to
witness the inaugural ccromonics. Maj.

Humanity.
Mayor Hischman was' not feeling
well this morning and looked as ho
said ho felt on tho verge of the "yal-
lor janders" and was very much griev-
ed when he arrived at the police court
to find that the usual situation had
been reversed. The city had no com-
plaintsjagainst individuals but there
were five individuals present who had
griovoua complaints against the city of
Waco and humanity in general. The
group was collected around the tobacco
stained stove an abjoct picture of dirt
degradation aid despair A mother
and four children the "oldest scarce
more than ten summers the youngest
yet in swaddling clothes sick starved
and dependent upon tho oharity of ut-
ter strangers. Sad was the story tho
woman told yea sadder than the
countenance darkened by the night of
ignorance. From the Kentuoky baolc-
woods thoy had come from Lincoln
county sacrificing the little of life's
goods to reach the Eldorado where in
a moment they thought to have amu
sed a fortune among the ranchmen of
the plains. Scarce had the dirt of
their nativo soil dried upon their shoes
when the pitiless reaper Death out
down the father and their dependence.
Starved delected and friendless.
they turned their oyes to the east to
retrace their long journey. Kind-peo-
ple of San Angelo furnished them
with the means to reach 'Brown wood
Brownwood people aided them to reach
Belton and Belton forwarded'them to
Waco. From Waco they wish to go to
Uorstcana where a brother ot the dead
husband dwells. "Here boys" said
the kind-hearted marshal ''I'm in a
dollar to help this woman." City
attorney Munroe tho mayor and City
Secretary Joney Jones responded and
a nice little sum was made up on the
spot.
Tho writer asked to have a capias is
sued for tho man who wrote "Sweet
are the uses of adversity" but the
mayor declined to enter the charge un-
til he could consult with his attorneys
in regard to the constitutionality of
the act as limited by section 8 Art.
