Fomenting the Strike Again.
Sacramento, Cal , July 23.—Those
who do not approve the action at Sat
urday’s meeting of the American Rail-
way Union, when the strike as far as
Sacramento is concerned was declared
off, have been distributing circulars
around the streets endeavoring to work
up a sentiment in favor of continuing.

—Beatrice Harraclan’s sudden popu-
larity has been used by‘ a publisher of
paper-bound books to play a petty
trick upon his public. A story of hers
gives title to a little volume recently
issued, and the book is bought by most
persons with the notion that she is .the
author of its whole contents, but it
turns out that only the first story is
hers, while the others are by less “em-
inent heads.”
—A lecture on agriculture by a na-
tive is a quite unexpected, indication of
awakening from India’s lethargy. Yet
Calcutta papers report a lecture by
Baboo Bepin Behary Ghose, B. -A., on
“How to start life as an agriculturist,”
the meeting being presided over by a
native, who, at the close of the lecture,
proposed a vote of thanks, which was
carried unanimously.
—Dr. J. A. Gilbert, of the Yale psy-
chological laboratory, has just com-
pleted some tests regarding the men-
tal and physical developments of the
pupils of the New Haven public schools,
showing that boys are more sensitive
to weight "discrimination, that girls
can tell the difference in color shades
better than boys, and that boys think
quicker than the othernsex.
—To preserve more completely his in-
cognito Napoleon often went so far as
to have a double. This double was
Isabey, the miniaturist, a perfect mimic,
who imitated so well the walk and gen-
eral carriage of the emperor that those
most familiar with him were deceived.
There was one point, however, in which
he failed. His hands were nearly twice
as big as Napoleons. That the emperor
provided for by wearing several pairs
of gloves, one over the other.
—Miss Irwin, the newly-appointed
dean of Radcliffe college, is a great-
granddaughter of Benjamin Franklin.
She spent much of her early life in
Washington, and studied principally at
home. It is said that one reason for
her appointment to the deanship is that
she is not a graduate of any woman’s
college. Miss Irwin expects to spend
the summer abroad, and will not as-
sume the duties of her new position
until the beginning of the next aca-
demic year. She is about sixty years of
age. Her father was at one time United
States minister to Denmark.—Harper’s

Cleveland, O , July 23.—As a result
of an investigation by labor unions it is
developed that of a large number of rail-

who struck here in the general tie up,
all but thirty have been reinstated.
The railroad companies have been
gradually discharging non-union men
who came in during the strike until now
there are very few of them in the service.

report was laid before the senate aijd
Mr. Gorman arose and addressed the
senate, speakipg from carefully prepared
notes.
In response to an appeal from Gorman,
Jones of Arkansas replied that he had
seen President Cleveland before he pro-
posed the Jones amendment to the bill
in the senate. He said he told the pres-
ident that he would not go one step
further with the compromise measure
until he was assured that it would have
the president’s support The president
told him, he said, he would favor almost
any compromise to secure the passage
of the bill.
Great applause from the galleries
greeted the close of Jones’ statement.
Mr. Vilas asked whether President
Cleveland had not expressed his desire
for free coal and iron, Mr. Jones replied
that he had, but had urged that the
senate get the compromise bill through,
Mr. Harris of Tennessee yielded the
chair to take the floor and corroborate
the statement of .Mr. Jones as to the
assertions made by the president in an
interview at which he also was present.
Mr. Gorman then resumed his speech.

Cleveland, O., July 23 —There was a
» head-end collision on the Cleveland, Oin-
‘ cinnati., Chicago and St. Louis railway
- at Griffith’s Station, fifteen miles from
; this city, at 7 o’clock this morning.
; Three were killed and ten injured.
i The express from Chicago, due here at
7.30 a.m., was on time, but the St.
i Louis, which runs 15 minutes ahead of
the Chicago incoming trains, was g,n
; hour late. At Griffiths a light engine
was running down to the gravel bank in
charge of Engineer Hart.
He forgot his orders.
Knowing the St. Louis express was
late he pulled out ^nd was met by the
Chicago express.
Hart will die, probably, without being
able to tell how he made the mistake in
the orders.
His fireman, Frank Taylor of India-
napolis, was killed outright, also Charles
Sherman and another tramp who was
stealing a ride.
There are ten reported injured, none
fatally except Engineer Hart.
Among the injured are Mrs. Warren

Chicago and Sr. Louis passenger depart-

postal clerks; Edward Hopper, secretary
of the Latonio jockey club; Gratz Han-
ley of Lexington, Ky., Geo. Griffith,
clerk of the board of education of Cin-
cinnati.
The postal cars of the Chicago express
were damaged. The rest of the train
was brought into this city, no passengers
being seriously injured. The engineer
and fireman of the express train saved
their lives by jumping. The injured are
being cared for at the hospitals here.
N. tfg and Personals.
Nine cars of watermelons were carried
from Fort Worth to Purcell by the Santa
Fe a few days ago in eight hours. The
distance is 172 miles. This is good
transportation.
Three coaches and a baggage car will
be required to bring the colored peo-
ple of Dallas and Fort Worth to Gal-
veston on the next Santa Fe excursion.
It is understood that tickets enough to
fill the coaches have already been sold
for the next Santa Fe excursion.
The following gentlemen are cooling
off in Galveston: J. W. Alexander,
chief clerk mechanical department,
Temple; Sid Burrows of Sanger & Co.,
Waco, and Jos. P. O’Donnell. They
came Saturday night and will remain
for two or three days.
The Santa Fe reports that 300 people
came in on the excursion train yester-
day morning. The passenger depart-
ment says that lots of them would be
glad to remain several days, but under
the conditions on which the tickets were
sold the holders must take the train to-
night at 6 o’clock.
The following passengers were ticketed
from the Union ticket office of the
Southern Pacific and Houston and Texas
Central railways: Mrs. Michael, Mrs.
Jacobs, Denver, Colo.; B. F. Pond, Look
out Mountain, Tenn.; S. Jackson, D.

Senator Gordon refuses to speak “from
a southern standpoint” upon the matter
of standing by the Federal government

more loyal to the government than the
south.—Savannah News, Dem.
The million dollars which it is esti-

mob. It is something that has to be
taught and learned—Boston Herald.

Galveston, Tex., July 23—Sometime
ago the board of health requested the
city council to appropriate $5000 to keep
the city in a sanitary condition. The
said appropriation was refused for the
lack of funds. Now there is a special
fund for any case of emergency. Where
is there more of a case of emergency
than the health of the people? I have
seen garbage that stcod for several days
at a time. The reason was that the
board of health has not half enough force
to keep the city in a sanitary condition.
Now, I will prove that it will not re
quire a dollar out of the city treasury.
There are a g?eat many delinquent tax-
payers who are not able to meet their
taxes with the city and who would be
more than willing to work out their
taxes with the board of health, but it
seems that our honorable city council
are more inclined to the issuing and
selling of bonds than to protecting the
health of the people. A. Heiman.

The democratic delegates of the coun-
ties making up the First supreme judi-
cial district of Texas had a meeting at
the Beach hotel this morning to nomi-
nate a member for the bench of the
court of civil appeals.
The term of Judge F. A. Williams
expires this year and the convention
was held to nominate his successor.
The convention was called to order at
11 o’clock and Chairman T. H. Ball
stated the hour had arrived when it
would be necessary to make a selection
of a temporary chairman.
Mr. Sampson of Galveston nominated
Judge R. H. Phelps of Fayette. The
nomination was seconded and carried,
when Judge Phelps was escorted to the
chair.
In taking the chair Judge Phelps said :
“I desire to return thanks to the con-
vention for the honor conferred upon
me. The next thing in order will be the
selection of a temporary secretary.”
W. L. Hill of Huntsville was proposed
and his name was carried through with
a rush.
It was moved that a committee of three
be appointed on credentials and on per-
manent organization, and that a recess
of five minutes be taken for the com-
mittee to report.
The chair appointed the following del-
egates: T. H. Ball, M. E. Kleberg and
O. F. Holt.
At the expiration of the recess the
committee made the following report:
Hon. R. H. Phelps, Temporary
Chairman First Supreme Judicial Dis-
trict Convention: Your committee on
permanent organization and credentials
beg to reportas follows:
_ First. That the temporary organiza-
tion be made permanent.
Second. We find the following coun-
ties represented by the following dele-
gates and entitled to cast the vote of
their respective counties:
Anderrori, W. H. Gill; Burleson, R.
G. Alexander, C. S. Williams; Fayette,
R. H. Phelps; Galveston, M. E. Kle-
berg, Alexander Sampson, J. Charles
Harris; Harris, E. P. Hamlin,
W. C. Oliver, O. T. Holt; Hous-
ton, J. C. Wooters, D. A. Nunn,
Jr.; Jefferson, Hugh Jackson; Liberty,
M. D. Rayburn ; Panola, A. S. Theweatt;
Victoria, W. L. Davidson ; Washington,
W. B. Garrett; Wharton, G. C. Duncan ;
Walker, W. L. Hill, T. H. Ball.
Respectfully submitted.
“T. H. Ball, Chairman;
M. E. Kleberg,
O. T. Holt.”
It was moved and seconded that the
report of the committee be adopted.
Carried.
The chairman stated that the next
thing in order would be the nomination,
of an associate justice of the court of
civil appeals, for the First supreme dis-
trict of the state of Texas.
Mr. Kleberg arose and stated that he
desired to place in nomination for the
office the name of F. A. Williams. He
said he believed it was unnecessary for
him to introduce the gentleman, as he
was known all over the state and it was
generally conceded that of all men who
had been on the bench of Texas there
was no better judge or more upright jus-
tice.
Mr. J. C. Wooters seconded the nomi-
nation, saying that he desired to add a
word to what had already been said. As
a representative of the constituents of
Judge Williams he felt called upon to
say that he was filled with kindness, and
that he would carry back to Judge Wil-
liams’ constituents the tidings with much
pride. He very feelingly thanked the
convention for the courtesy extended.
Judge Davidson remarked that his
modesty was a great burden to him and
it was a constant struggle between it and
his good looks. He seconded the
nomination because Judge Williams was
known as a just and grand magistrate.
There existed no better in the state.
Judge Garrett said that one of the best
tributes to the popularity of Judge
Williams was the fact that he was a
pure and honorable man, and a signifi-
cant thing existed in the fact that no
name had been mentioned in opposition
to Judge Williams.
Judge Hamlin took pleasure in sec-
onding the gentleman making the,mo-
tion. Judge Williams deserved the nom-
ination and as the judge was from
Mississippi he was sure to maintain his
previous high reputation.
A committee of five was appointed by
the chair to notify Judge Williams of
the action of the convention. The com-
mittee was composed of Messrs. Garrett,
Kleberg, Davidson, Hamlin and Wooters.
Judge Sampson nominated Judge Ball
as permanent chairman of the first judi-
cial district. Seconded and carried.
On motion of Mr. Kleberg the conven-
tion adjourned._____________

Ihat we display, but not a hundredth part as
tasty and appetizing as our s<oek ot first-class
staple and fancy groceries. It’s as natural for
people in Galveston to come to us for prime
goods as it is to use ice to keep things cool. But
while ice keeps cool only while it lasts, we
keep our stock at the top notch of quality con-
stantly, never allowing it to melt down into-
inferior, poor and undesirable goods. Don’t
put on your table any article that one must
coax himself to be able to eat, but make your
bill of fare consist of something tempting and.
inviting, satisfying and delicious.
You can have pure maple sap syrup
in cans by ordering of us. We keep it
in stock and, our word for it, it is of
'elegant flavor and color.
There is no mistake made in trying
our 30-cent butter. Pure goods, rich in
eolar, fine flavor, and has the true batter
odor. Neither too salt nor too fresh.
Twenty cents for a pure butter is a
mere nothing. We sell that butterand
it gives satisfaction. To be sure, it isn’t
equal to our 30-cent butter. However,
its good value.
Burnham’s Clam Bouillon is a tooth-

St'ck to Ewi iZSTland.
Washington, D. C., July 23.—United
States Consul Gorman at Munich be-
lieves this is an opportune time for the
cattlemen to place surplus cattle in
Switzerland.
Owing to the hay famine last year all
surplus stock was killed. Now there is
great scarcity.
The consul suggests that American
stock shippers communicate with the
Over Four Hundred People from the
State Visited Galveston Yesterday.
The first of the two special summer
excursions from interior points through-
out the state over the Santa Fe came in
Saturday night.
About 150 people arrived from San An-
gelo, Goldthwaite, Brownood, Lampasai
and other pointe in the state.
Yesterday morning a special train ar-
rived from Gainesville, Cleburne, Fort
Worth and Dallas, and all points south,
on the Santa Fe, which brought in about
300 people.
The maximum rate was $5, and a
great many who did not take advantage
Uniontown, Pa., July 23.—Dyna-
miters made an attempt last night to
blow up the town of Dunbar, just north
of here.
At 1 o’clock a large bomb was ex-
ploded under the house of a non-union
workman named Vaugh, in the center
of the town. The building was blown
to pieces and a large part of the town
was badly shaken by the explosion
Windows were broken all over the
borough and chimneys thrown from
their positions.
The family escaped without injury,
which is considered miraculous.
A short time later a dynamite bomb
was found under the house of William
Boden, another non-unionist. The bomb
had evidently been thrown at the house,
but did not explode.
Last night was one of mortal terror in
Dunbar, the town being in the hands of
the strikers. Many people remained on
the streets all night.
Nearly 2000 strikers have gathered
here to-day for a meeting, Many are
armed with guns and revolvers.

CUT OR THRUST.
Sword Practice of the Cavalrymen in the
English Army.
English cavalry swords are made
particularly for cutting (though with
the steel scabbard it is difficult to un-
derstand how a keen edge is to be pre-
served), and in the sword exercise cut-
ting is very assiduously taught, and
that, .especially in the yearly mounted
competition for swordsmanship prizes,
the valu-e of the point is impressed em-
phatically sspon the men. But if our
cavalry were to go ipto action to-mor-
row, can’^nyone wild knows our sol-
diers doubt^hat the greater number of
them would at once begin to cut at
their enemy?
They have been taught to cut, and
they will cut, quite regardless of the
exertion which they entail on them-
selves, and forgetting* that the weap-
ons have points as well as edges. If
we compare the value of the point
with that of the cut as regards its ef-
fect on an enemy, it is immeasurably
the more effective. In a cut, even if
the sword does not turn in the hand
and if the edge falls true, it is always
more than likely that it will encounter
a button, a belt, or a pouch, which will
prevent it from penetrating; the cut,
too, depends entirely on the vigor of
the soldier’s arm, and is not assisted in
any way by the crash and impetus of
the charge. Except in a very small
minority of cases, its results will gen-
erally be a bruise or a slight flesh
wound-
To deliver a point, on the other
jhand, requires little physical exertion.
The sheer weight of horse and man be-
