THE DAY AT HOUSTON
A Movement to Secure Another Dis-
trict Court in Harris
County.
CATHOLIC KNIGHTS MEET,
Officers Elected—Young People's Entertain-
ment—A Plan to Build a Pythian
Temple—Bank Elections. .
HouBton, Tex., Jan. 8.—At a meeting o(
the Houston bar to-day to take steps re-
garding the obtaining of an additional dis-
trict court for Harris county, Judge Nor-
man G. Klttrell called the meeting to or-
der and Judge S. H. Brashear was elected
temporary chairman and E. P. Phelps tem-
porary secretary. *
Judge Klttrell, Major W. H. Crank and
Judge Henry Cline addressed the meeting
upon the facts establishing the necessity
for another district court. The main points
made in behalf of the court were that
there are at present so many cases upon
the docket and being filed that it is im-
possible for one judge to dispose of them;
that the fact that there are so many cases
on the docket causes a great deal of delay
in the trial of the causes and consequently
Is a great expense, both to litigants here
and living elsewhere, on account of the
witness fees and other incidental expenses.
There were a number of other reasons
given why Harris county should have an-
other court, and all the lawyers present
seemed to be very much In favor of it,
with one or two exceptions.
A motion was carried making the tem-
porary organization permanent, and upon
motion or Judge Klttrell the chairman
was ordered to appoint a committee of
five members of the bar to memorialize
the present legislature and present to them
the data and statistics to show the ne-
cessity for the court. The chairman will an-
nounce his appointments on the commit-
tee to the newspapers within the next day
or so.
The meeting then adjourned, subject to
the call of the chair. There is a strong
outside sentiment behind the lawyers in
this movement and they will carry it to
success if possible.
HOUSTON LIGHT GUARD.
On account of the lateness of the hour
of adjournment of the annual meeting of
the Houston light guard last night several
details were left out of the report this
morning and are here given.
A large quantity of routine business was
disposed of and a comprehensive talk was
made by Captain Frank A. Reichardt,
showing what had been accomplished by
the company in the past year in the drill
field, as well as a complete statement of
the financial condition of the organization,
which is in magnificent shape, having quite
a handsome sum in the hands of the treas-
urer, with no incumbrance.
Captain Relchardt also outlined the fut-
ure policy of the organization, which looks
to the creation of a sinking fund for the
purpose of raising the bonded indebted-
ness on the handsome Armory building,
the home of the light guard, of which all
Houstonians are Justly proud.
He concluded his remarks by congratu-
lating the company upon having estab-
lished a thoroughly successful club with-
out a sideboard or drinking feature, of
which there are few instances in this coun-
try—aside from religious institutions.
After the election of officers, the names
of whom have been published in The News,
an address of a bright and enthusiastic
character was made by Lieutenant Spen-
cer Hutchins for the purpose of raising up
the Interest of the boys for the coining
drill and reunion to be held here in May,
which, briefly outlined, was as follows:
"Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen: Years
ago, from an obscure southern town, a
band of boys, possessed of martial splrft,
went forth challenging similar organiza-
tions throughout the United States to con-
test for supremacy in the competitive drill
field. That organization, my comrad^;,
was the Houston light guard, and that
Obscure southern town none other than
Houston, the place we love and call our
home. The goddess of fate admired the
courage of that band of boys who carried
the name and fame of this city throughout
the length and breadth of this great coun-
try and wreathed their banner with gar-
lands of roses and victories. And that ob-
scure southern town has proudly reared
her head, prosperity has come to her
doors, Improvement and material develop-
ment are seen on all sides, and to-day she
stands proudly claiming to be the great
railroad center and commercial metropolis
of the Lone Star state.
"And now, gentlemen, another year has
rolled around, bringing with It not only
the holiday season and the annual meet-
ing of this organization, but bringing with
It the appropriate time to glance at the
events or the past year, to measure what
has been accomplished and what the com-
ing year may bring. It is -the time when
cherished memories of the past rise up
within us and when fancy paints our fond-
est hopes in glittering colors, and it 'is In
this spirit, my comrades, I would speak
to you to-night, while the achievements
of the past are treasured recollections,
they will not suffice for lethargy or in-
activity in the year already begun, 1895.
But the coming year is upon us, bristling
with events and life. Already our city
has announced a military drill and con-
federate reunion, which will prove the
grandest oelebratlon in all the history of
the Bayou city, and to you will be as-
signed no small portion of the responsi-
bilities incident to this gala occasion. We
can safely say to-night that every city,
town and hamlet within the borders of
this great country will have representatives
here upon this occasion. They are coming
from the frozen lakes of the northland to
the gulf-beaten shores of the south. Many
are coming who have never before entered
the portals of this great and hospitable
state. They are seeking the land or flow-
ers, the home of the magnolia; and many,
too, are coming who perchance have read
of the achievements in other states of the
Houston light guard. Many are coming
who will tell their neighbors and friends
on returning home of all they learned and
saw In their visit to the land of historic
San Jacinto. I quote a conversation re-
cently held with the adjutant general of
our state, W. H. Mabry, who said: 'I want
the volunteer guard of the state to prove a
soldierly, disciplined corps on the occasion
of this visit to Houston in the spring, in
order that the great number of people who
will visit there at that time will return
home feeling that the military guard of
this state is an organized and efficient
corps prepared to protect the peace and
sustain the laws of Texas.'
"Therefore, my comrades, let me appeal
to you, each and everyone, to-night, by the
cherished memories or the past, by the pa-
triotism that natural pride should arouse
In every man, to do his full duty by the
organization in the active events that are
nearly upon us; not measuring his duty by
some one else, but by the loyalty he owes
this organization and by the patriotism he
should feel for the place he calls his home.
Gentlemen, I, thank you."

o'clock.
Twenty-one branches were represented,
from different parts of the state. At 10
o'clock delegates and members of the local
branches marched to the church, where
they attended solemn high mass, which
was conducted by Father Maury of Hous-
ton, assisted by Fathers Lee of Galveston,
Granger of Marshall and Pflffner of Hous-
ton. Father Hennessy delivered a fine
address suitable to the occasion and urged
unity of action in the deliberations of mat-
ters coming before the council at this ses-
sion. The music was very good and was
very much appreciated by the visitors.
After mass the convention was called
to order by Secretary Ott of Galveston,
President Campbell of San Antonio and
Vice President Blakely of Hallettsville be-
ing absent. John A. McCormick of San

which the council adjourned until 3 o'clock.

After the adjournment the members were

The afternoon session was called to or-
der at 3 o'clock and the various commit-
tees made tiheir reports. A resolution was
adopted to the effect that not more than
thirty assessments hereafter be levied in
one year, but If more than that should be
needed it will be taken from the sinking
fund. There was a lengthy debate on the
subject before the above action was taken.
It ended at 6 o'clock, when adjournment
was had to 9 o'clock to-morrow.
An Important feature of the work for to-
morrow will be the election of officers and
three delegates to the supreme council.
This evening t)he delegates were enter-
tained by Mr. W. L. Foley at his apart-
ments in the Hutchins house.

the programme there was an Intermission
of ten minutes during which the handsome
piano awarded by Mr. Grunewald was
disposed of.
The visiting Knights will be banqueted
to-morrow night by the local branch.
"IN OLD KENTUCKY."
"In Old Kentucky" was the attraction
at the opera house this afternoon, even-
ing and last night, and judging from the
spontaneous, perhaps boisterous manifes-
tations of approval, the audience must
have been among the most delighted of
the whole season. The curtain went up
on a very realistic and rugged scene in
the mountains of old Kentucky. The rep-
resentation was very fine, showing a
cleverly constructed mountain side, with
cliffs, gulches, a rudely built bridge, heavy
trees, long grasses drooping over the banks,
steps ascending the mountain side, and
other features accurate in detail. The
effect upon the audience was to put them
in harmony with the spirit of the play
as It was developed. In this act the lead-
ing characters were all presented, Miss
Lizzie Evans as Madge Brierly, Frederick
Ross as Frank Layson, a worthy son of
Kentucky; Sandusky Doolittle, a great
speculator and horseman; Walter Edwards
as Joe Lorey, a moonshiner; Charles Web-
ster as Ned, an old family servant; Flor-
ence Robinson as Alathea Layson, and
others. The still in the mountains and a
deadly feud gave rise to thrilling situa-
tions from the start, as the latter was de-
veloped. The play was a go from that
act forward, and the audience was im-
pregnated with an enthusiasm that never
jagged. The work of Lizzie Evans, the
flower of the mountains, infused humor
and pathos into her character that ex-
cited the warmest applause time and
again. Then followed Woodlawn, in the
blue grass region, realistically pictured,
which made the second act, with the ap-
pearance of the brass band as pickanin-
nies. The band proved to be of excellent
musicians, and in their ragged clothes they
made a hit. The liveliest nigger dancing
was done by the members. The third act
contained the climax, introducing the
paddock, outside the race track, the grand
stand and the "finish" by three thorough-
breds, Queen Bess the winner. The excite-
ment in the audience during the prepara-
tion for the race was well worked up,
and at times boiled over in wild applause
and cheers. The play is true to nature,
perhaps exaggerated at times, and thus
caught the hearty approval of the audience.
Pauline Hall and her operatic oomedy
company will appear to-morrow (Wednes-
day) evening in "Dorcas," and there is a
large sale of seats at the box office. They
will be followed by "Lady Windermere's
Fan" Thursday.

ceive to be good Judgment. They have
agreed to have their first meeting and
discussion of the proposed plan next Fri-
day evening, just after the adjournment of
the meeting of Houston lodge No. 155. It
will be held In the hall in which this lodge
meets. The leading spirits in the enter-
prise will then disclose their plan and
place it on its merits before all of the
members. They invite criticism of the

weak points should there be any. It will
be a big thing for the order here, and as
Houston has about 1000 knights, they
should be able to carry it through easily,

WEATHER AND CROPS.
Angleton, Brazoria Co.—Cloudy, with dry
norther blowing. Winter plowing far ad-
vanced.
Velasco, Brazoria Co.—Rain in several
neighborhoods Sunday, but clear and warm
Monday.
Angleton, Brazoria Co.—Weather bright
and springlike. Farmers plowing and plant-
ing fruit trees.
Bren'ham, Washington Co.—There was a
rain storm here Monday night, accom-
panied by lightning and hail.
Yoakum, DeWltt Co.—Rain is badly
needed and the ground is in such a con-
dition that farmers can not plow.
Trinity, Trinity Co.—Good rain fell here
Monday afternoon, which is the first of
any consequence for several months.
Giddings, Lee Co—Very little rain fell
when the norther came up Monday night,
to the great disappointment of the people
of this community.
Rockdale, 'Milam Co.—The long dry epell
in tihis section has been broken. A rain
began falling at noon Monday, accom-
panied by a little thunder. Weather turn-
ing colder.
Lufkin, Angelina Co.—The week of freez-
ing weather lias been followed by very
warm, springlike weather. Since Christmas
there has been a hog-killing time In this
county. Hogs got fat on mast. Pork selling
at 4 cents.
Wharton, Wharton Co.—A good shower
fell here Monday night about 8 o'clock,
which was badly needed. The weather
for the past two or three weeks has been
very dry and considerable rain Is needed
to put the ground in condition for plow-
ing. A good, 8tiff norther is blowing.
Taylor, Williamson Co.—Although heavy
fogs are of dally o< 'urrence, still the out-
look for rain is not at all encouraging.
Rain is 'badly needed in this section and
farmers and stockmen are becoming un-
easy. Early and winter plowing has been
considerably retarded in consequence.
Giddings, Lee Co.—It has not rained here
to amount to anything since August, and
there is almost a water famine on. Farm-
ers can not do any winter plowing and
therefore start into the new crop under
a decided disadvantage, as they gener-
ally do a great deal of fall and winter
plowing here.
Noflanville, Bell Co.—The cotton crop is
about all gathered. Some of the farmers
are breaking land. They say it Is very
hard to plow. Stock water is very scarce,
and some people have to drive their stock
three and four miles to water. Old settlers
say Nolan creek has less water in it than
they ever saw.
Velasco, Brazoria Co.—The second cold
norther of the present winter came Mon-
day night, and Is increasing, accompanied
with rain. Agriculturists hope it will be
the usual winter rainy spell, that will in-
sure the fair spring planting and cultivat-
ing weather this coast nearly always en-
joys. The sugar crops have been so well
worked up that very little cane was seri-
ously hurt.
Beaumont, Jefferson Co.—The steamer
Charles Lee came in from Taylor's bayou
Saturday night with 330 sacks of rice from
W. G. Lovell's farm. This is perhaps the
last large consignment that will be re-
ceived tnls season. The majority of the
farmers expect to begin 'breaking ground
for the coming year's crdp some time this
week or the early part or next. A heavy
rain fell Monday night, which may possi-
bly delay them for the time belzur.
HON. R. W. FINLEY.
Token of Esteem From the Officers and j
Employes of the State Penitentiary.
Huntsville, Walker Co., Tex., Jan. 8.—
The officers and employes of the state
penitentiary here have been preparing for
some time to appropriately show their es-
teem for Hon. It. W. Finley, comptroller-
elect, on his early retirement as financial
agent to assume his other duties, and on
yesterday afternoon Mr. Finley was Invit-
ed over to the home of Assistant Super-
intendent J. G. Smither, where quite a
number were in waiting. When all were
safely In Mr. R. R. Lockett stepped for-
ward and addressed Mr. Finley as follows:
"Mr. Finley: The hour has at last and
indeed arrived when your friends realize
that they must soon lose you from their
immediate presence in Huntsville and sev-
er their intimate business and social rela-
tions with you and your family. And your
co-laborers, thanking you for the univer-
sal kindness at all times shown them, beg
to present to you this beautiful watch,
chain and charm. May the watch con-
tinue to run as long as your heart may
beat apd may your heart beat in health
as long as the mechanism of the watch
can last. The chain is symbolical of the
friendship that binds you to them; the
charm is emblematical of more than I can
express and which but few present under-
stand. Accept this from your friends and
may you continue happy and prosperous
as now."
Mr. Finley was taken altogether by sur-
prise, but managed to respond in a husky
voice, as follows:
"Friends: I beg to thank you. No tongue,
not mine, could express the feelings of
gratitude and appreciation I feel over this
altogether unexpected event to me. I
trust you will pardon me for exhibiting
feelings of emotion, but the token of your
esteem overwhelms me. To say I appre-
ciate the same but feebly expresses it. My
stay In Huntsville has been most pleasant
and among the brightest spots in my life.
Permit me to say whatever success I have
attained as financial agent 1 attribute to
the hearty support of my loyal and faith-
ful co-laborers. When 17 years of age I
entered the ranks as a breadwinner and
have always tried, to use a trite expres-
sion, to 'keep in the middle of the road.'
In leaving here no spot on earth will be
dearer to me than where you live. In ac-
cepting this I beg to say it will not only be
cherished, but will have the tendency to
make me a better man. Regarding the
charm, I will repeat the lines forming an
emblematic acrostic:
Happy is the man whose act'ions will bear
The rugged test of the unerring square;
Who through life will unswervingly stand
Steadfast and true betwixt God and man,
Seeking through works of charity and love
To gain admission into the grand lodge
above,
Knowing the stone which In the rubbish
was cast
Shall crown the master's work at last.
"Now, In conclusion, In behalf of my
good wife as well as myself, for this hand-
some present and for your kind wishes, I
beg to return sincere thanks."
Mr. G. N. Otey then stepped forward and
in a highly eulogistic manner presented
Mrs. Finley two handsome plush cases,
one containing a set of solid silver forks
and the other of spoons.
Mrs. Finley was so overcome with sur-
prise and emotion that she could only say
"Thanks."
The watch presented Mr. Finley was a
heavy, solid gold, handsomely chased, El-
gin movement, with the monogram W. F.
on the front and a diamond setting in the
center of the back. On the inside there
was engraved: "To R. W. Finley, from the
officers and employes of the Texas state
penitentiaries, on his retirement from the
office of financial agent, as a token of es-
teem. 1895." The presentation was a most
happy one in every respect. Mr. Finley
left for Austin this afternoon to make ar-
rangements for the removal of his family
there. The people here are very loth to
give them up.
The new financial agent, Mr. J. S. Rice,
assumes charge the first part of next
week.
Palestine, Tex., Jan. 6.—Hon. R. W. Fin-
ley, comptroller-elect, passed through here
last night on his way to Huntsville. He
had just returned from Rusk, where he
had been to get his successor straightened
out in the harness.
DOCTORS MEET.
Southeast Texas Medical Association in
Session at Beaumont.
Beaumont, Jefferson Co., Tex., Jan. 8.—
The Southeast Texas medical association
met this afternoon, but deferred their
business meeting until to-night, when the
president is expected to arrive from
Orange. The doctors were highly enter-
tained during the afternoon by tests of
hypnotism and mind reading. The former
t- -its were given by Mr. K. E. Irby of this
city and were highly satisfactory. The
object of this experiment was to investi-
gate the advisability of performing surgi-
cal operations upon subjects under this
influence. A pin was stuck In the hand
of Mr. Irby's subject and no sensation of
pain was felt. Miss Mattle Lou Anderson
of Sardis, Miss., then gave an exhibition
of mind reading and went through numer-
ous tests, regarded by the noted mind
readers of the day as wonderful perform-
ances.

'Palestine, Tex., Jan. 6.—'The Turnkey
Beard hunting club, of which Hon. W. H.
G1M Is president, started to-night on their
annual hunt. They will go to a point near

record for killing game; nineteen deer hav-
ing fallen to their well-aimed rifles. Every
man in the party lias an established record
either for some marvelous adventures in
the jungles of the swamp or thrilling ex-
periences in the cane brakes. All are jovial,
Jolly fellows around the camp fires, and

varicator of tihe state. They chartered a

Great Northern railroad and all the good

fied copper distilled 101 proof whisky were

tention of hunting nexit fall, agreeably to
an Invitation from the club to do so.

AN IRRIGATION COMPANY.
Laredo, Tex., Jan. 6.—Messrs. Higby,
Howell and Taylor have organized an Irri-
gation system styled Las Manadas irriga-
tion company.
They have purchased a tract of land In
this county bordering the Rio Grande
r'ver, about six miles up the river from
this city and ju»t north of the North
Laredo land and irrigation company tract.
They commenced to place their plant in
position yesterday and expect to 1je in
readiness to raise from the river within the
next thirty days 1000 gallons of water per
minute and distribute It over 116 acres of
land already cleared for the purpose of
cultivation. The company will devote their
attention during the coming spring to truck
gardening and in the fall will put these
lands in tomatoes.
Tomato growing was proved a success In
this section by the North Laredo people
last fall. These tomatoes found a ready
market In San Antonio, Galveston and
other points In this state, and were of a
superior size and quality. All of these
gentlemen connected with this enterprise
are from the state of Colorado. Mr. Tay-
lor is the pioneer of the North Laredo
irrigation system introduced here by him
about four years ago.
They are practical civil engineers and
men who are well up In the art of irri-
gating and have gone to work with every
assurance of success in their undertaking.
DRAGGED BY HIS HORSE.
Victoria, Tex., Jan. 8.—Allie, the 15-year-
old son of Mrs. 'Margaret Pickering, while
running his horse in the suburbs yesterday
afternoon, was thrown, and his foot catch-
ing in the bridle reins, the horse dragged
him about a hundred yards, at the same
time kicking him frightfully about the
head and face. Ills face is battered out of
all semblance to a human countenance and
he has not yet regained consciousness since
the accident.
Blow, blow, blow! That disagreeable ca-
tarrh cured by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla.
moiisaiids*
BY INVISIBLE RODS.
No Wondor Thin Merchant Complained
That lie i'eltas if Pounded.
"I feel as if I had been pounded," said
one business man to another as they were
riding home after office hours. "I am sore
from head to foot. I don't know what's
the matter."
He had, in fact, been pounded, but not
by any tangible instrument. He had been
beaten from head to foot by the evil forces
that lurk In the winter air. Not alone In
| the outer air, but in the hot, stuffy atmos-
phere of overheated dwellings and places
of business.
| The effect is wofully familiar, even
when the cause is unsuspected. Headache,
a feeling of lassitude, a diminished ap-
petite, and a general soreness and stiff-
ness of the muscles mean that the circula-
tion of the blood Is slow. A sharp current
of all1 sends the blood from the tangle of
tiny nerves just beneath the skin to the
interior of the body. Then the sufferer
coughs and perhaps feels a little stab-like
pain in the chest.
"I wonder if I am going to be sick," he
says to himself.
Yes. if he neglects proper precautions.
No, if he have recourse to a stimulant that
will send the red stream bounding natu-
rally through his veins, giving a brisk and
equal circulation.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey Is the only
thing before the public which answers the
requirements of such cases. That is why
it is so much In demand In famil'les.
Duffy's Pure Malt Is distinctly a medicin-
al preparation. It wards off colds, indi-
gestion and other troubles resulting from
indoor life.
Suffer untold miseries from a sense of delicacy
they cannot overcome.
