AT BEST.
The long and useful life of Colonel M.
Menard closed this morning, and he has
gone to his reward. He died at an early
hour at the residence of his daughter,
Mrs. Augustine Lancton, Winnie, be-
tween Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, in
the 74th year of his age. Colonel Men-
ard came to Texas from Illinois in the
thirties, and was one of the Island City’s
oldest and most respected citizens. He
served in the late war with distinction,
was lieutenant-colonel of the Twenty-
sixth Texas cavalry, DeBray’s regiment,
and was severely wounded at the battle
of Pleasant Hill. He leaves a son, Mr.
J. M. O. Menard, and a widowed daugh-
ter, Mrs. Lancton. The funeral will oc-
cur from the residence to-morrow at 10
o’clock.

To the Editor of Evening Tribune:
GalvestoN, July 12, 1887.—Supposing
Tom Marley to be a Catholic, he is a sorry
specimen of one if, as you surmise in last
evening’s issue, “the anathema of the
Roman church has sent him under cover.”
Not only so, but like the serpent that lied
to Eve, he ought to be condemned to
crawl on his belly for the rest of his life
if the horribel tirade of curses that shock-
ed and scandalized a continent on the .
morning of Sunday last were to cause him
to swerve a hair’s breadth from what
he knows in every fibre of his heart’s
core to be of the very essence of God’s
truth and of Christ’s teaching, to-wit,
that God made the earth for all his peo-
ple and not for some of them; and that
any denial of this, by word or deed, legal
or illegal, is a denial of the common
fatherhood of God, the common brother-
hood of man.
By the way, is it not as plain as the
nose on a man’s face that the “troopers”
who have invented all this tall cursing
have an uneasy, inward suspicion that1
Dr. McGlynn will yet be pope of Rome?
“How do I make it out?” you say. Con-
found your owlish stupidity, didn’t you
notice that they never cursed his toes at
all? Maybe you don’t even know any-
thing of the ceremony of kissing the
pope’s toe? Well, would it ever do, I
ask you, for such holy, consummate theo-
logic cursers to be hereafter, maybe, kiss-
ing a toe that with bell, book and candle-
light had been cursed “co utter damna-
tion” by “the wonderful company of
patriarchs and prophets” and a whole
score of etceteras, all winding up in one
grand, sonorous war symphony of “amen,
so be it, so be it, amen I” Beginning at
his hair they curse him all the way down
to his feet, and then, strange oversight!
they pass on to his nails, never saying as
much as “by your leave” to his toes. I
maintain the toes are untouched. But I
expect to be told that what escaped the
hook was caught in the seine. “May he
be cursed in all the powers of his body
from the crown of his head to the soles
of his feet.” I utterly -deny that the
toes were in range (unless indeed he
wears them behind) and I’ll stake my life
on it that they were not left out by mis-
take.

' ADVICE TO HUSBANDS.-’
Keep the house neat. No woman likes
to come home and find the house littered
up and everything upside down and scat-
tered around. This has driven many a
wife away in disgust. In addition to this
take pains to be dressed in a pleasing but
not gaudy manner. She don’t like to come
home and find you looking like a profess-
ional slouch in your shirt sleeves, with your
feet on the mantle piece and the house
full of five cent cigar smoke, children
not washed or dressed, nor the beds
made. Always wear your best when she
comes home, and she cannot fail to no-
tice in a few weeks how pretty you look,
and think better of you for it. Do this
and get your hay, feed, flour, lard, Kan-
sas butter, from Forsgard, Waters & Co.,
corner Strand and Tremont street, and
you will make home happy, as all these
things have their effect. +

THE OTHER SIDE.
To the Editor of Evening Tribune:
Galveston, July 12, 1887. — It does
seem to me that a great many men who
are not Catholics, men who belong to no
church organization in fact, are making
themselves unnecessarily previous in this
McGlynn excommunication business. Dr.
McGlynn was a Catholic priest who saw
fit to ignore and defy his superiors in the
church. He was dealt kindly with, cau-
tioned, reasoned with, warned, given
every opportunity to yield obedience to
the authority of the church, but he per-
sisted in ©pen defiance. He courted his
fate. To permit such disobedience would
be to disrupt the church. There was no
alternative but excommunication. Of
the “curse of Rome,” it is, in this latter
day, regarded more as a form than aught
else, a notice to all the world that all
former rights and privileges have been re-
voked. It must be borne in mind that
the priesthood is a sacred calling, that
the vows are not to be regarded lightly.
When men like Dr. McGlynn choose to
ignore these vows, choose to use their
priestly office for the propagation of rank
heresies, choose to use their great in-
fluence for their own personal aggrand-
izement and to the detriment of the
cause of the church to which they have
solemnly pledged their lives, they deserve
to have the curse of the holy church
launched upon their irreverent heads. It
must be borne in mind that the Catholic
church is not of a mushroon modern
growth. For centuries the cross has
blazed forth the Divine truth to all the
nations of the earth. In every land*and
clime upon which the sun shines, in
every nation beneath fair heaven’s dome
it has been reared by earnest, loving
hands, often amid great peril and at the
cost of suffering, to point the way to the
mercy seat. It is sanctified by the blood
of martyrs, it is blessed of the saints, it
is the hope and consolation of millions.
It was against all this that McGlynn
aligned himself —- against the precepts of
ages, against the life labor of the good,
and great, and noble of cent cries. Yes,
may he be accursed forever, accursed in
the sight of God and man 1 Atheists and
deists have assailed the church but they
did so as open, as avowed enemies. Mc-
Glynn came among us as a gift-bearing
Greek, he struck the hand that fed him
—stung the bosom that nursed him — he
is the Judas Iscariot,the Benedict Arnold
| of the niueieemh century.
The business men of Galveston are hav-
ing a picnic at present so far as freight
rates are concerned, the different lines
composing the Texas Traffic association
having entered the field in sharp competi-
tion. While the Traffic association is not
a thing of the past, it is certain that it is
at present inoperative so far as freight
rates are concerned. Major Waldo, com-
missioner of the Traffic association, yes-
terday said to a Post reporter: “The
Traffic association, as an organization, is
still intact and has not been affected.
There were some® dissensions among the
members, which has caused this state of
affairs. It may last for thirty days and
it may not last so long. The members of
the association, like the members of any
other organization, had some differences
of opinion which will take a
LONGER OR SHORTER
time to harmonize, according to circum-
stances.” Desiring further information
upon a subject of so much interest to
Gslveston the reporter called upon Gen-
eral Manager Snyder, of the Santa Fe,
this morning. “Mr. Waldo has stated
the matter very fairly,” said Mr. Snyder.
“There is some dissatisfaction, but I
think that everything will soon be ad-
justed. The Santa Ee is sticking religi-
ously to the tariff. Yes, I believe there
has been a cut of 40 per cent, in New
Orleans freights, caused by the action of
the Sunset route, but whether the cut is
made at the state line to avoid the inter-
state 'Commerce law, as suggested by a
morning paper, I cannot say.”
MR. PARKER,
commercial agent of the Missouri-Pacific,
was then called upon and he said.: “The
trouble arose over the action of the Santa
Fe claiming a differential for Kansas City
which the Missouri-Pacific and the Texas
Central would not agree to. The Santa
Fe stood pat and until the next meeting
of the Traffic association the different
roads will work the business to get all
they can. Of course this state of affairs
cannot but result in the loss of large rev-
enues to all the roads. The Traffic asso-
ciation schedule was too low and a general
cut can only result in positive loss. The
Missouri-Pacific was the last to join in
the general scramble for business under
the practical suspension of the association
rates, but has been driven into it or see
ITS LEGITIMATE BUSINESS
taken away. It amounts to this: If the
other roads had granted the request of a
differential for Kansas City there is no
telling when a like demand would have
been made for St. Louis and New Orleans.
This would have placed Galveston at a
great disadvantage. It is the object of
the association to maintain just and
equitable rates throughout the territory
served by the different lines, and miles
are not always the prime factor in deter-
mining such rates. Yes, I think that
everything will be satisfactorily arranged
at the next meeting. I don’t think that
tne Santa Fe will care to stand upon her
demand, knowing that to do so can only
result in the loss of great revenue and
much of the business that properly be-
longs to her.”
TOM MARLEY ON CURSING.
To the Editor of Evening Tribune:
Galveston, July 12, 1887.—Yes, Mar-
ley has heard of the excommunication.
Also of the excommunication of President
Cleveland by General Fairchild. Fair-
child certainly did give the president a
good cussing. He palsied the president’s
hand, head and heart, and damned him
very generally about the person. It is
gratifying to note that Cleveland was too
much of a gentleman to cuss back.
Fairchild’s anathema is less reprehens-
ible than Tammany’s, however. When
Tammany lost some sixty thousand votes
by reason of McGlynn’s kick against cor-
ruption there was a great damning of the
good priest’s eyes and all manner of bit-
ter cussing, but that sort of damning had
so little effect that they got the Italian
branch of Tammany to give it to him in
Latin. Fairchild did his own cussing in
the vernacular.
Intelligent people the world over are
not going to worry much over the cussing
that Cleveland and McGlynn have been
getting. The cussees in both cases are
resting easy, and it is very doubtful
whether the cussers are half as tranquil.
What a laugh the next generation will
have at the superstitions of this! How
we vaunt our grand civilization of the
nineteenth century! How we love to
crucify those who tell us that we have
not yet reached perfection! And yet a
grand truth once started on its way can-
not be stopped by imprecations, be they
in Latin or English. Every day more of
our people are awakening to the belief
that God supplied the natural elements
for the use of all mankind, and that, as
Thomas Jefferson contended : “The land
is given in usufruct to the living, and the
dead have no rights over it.” As the
matter now stands it is a direct issue be-
tween the pope and Thomas Jefferson—
between a crowned aristocrat on the one
hand and a true Democrat on the other.
It ought not to be difficult for Americans
to choose sides. Tom Marley.
