The sad intelligence of the death of Mr,
James A. Henry of Little Rock, Ark., was
received with a shock and sorrow yester-
day morning by his many friends in Gal-
veston.
Mr. Henry,-who was very prominent in
Masonry, was well known in Galveston
and all Texas, having visited this state on
several occasions. He was inspector gen-
eral of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish
Rite Masons for Arkansas, grand secre-
tary of the grand chapter of Arkansas
and grand recorder of the grand com-
mandery of Arkansas. He was 82 years of
age.

nounced that the business to come before
the session was the1 election of officers
and a selection of a place for the next
meeting.

Maj. Baer Says It Has Not Yet Been
Leased.
Several propositions have been made re-
cently to Maj. R. B. Baer, receiver of ‘the
Galveston city stree-t railway company,
looking toward the lease of the Olympia.
There was a deal on that should have
been consummated yesterday, but owing
to unfortunate circumstances it fell
-through and has been temporarily de-
clared off. The report was out today that
a well known gentleman had leased the
building for a period, of three years, but
this proved ’to be a mistake. When asked
about the matter today Maj. Baer said
the Olympia had not been leased to any-
one. Application has been made to Judge
Bryant by interested parties- for authori-
ty to lease the building and this- has
doubtless given, rise to some of the reports
that are. current.
JOSEPH LABADIE-, SR., DEAD.
Well Known Citizen of Galveston Comes
to His End in Hot Springs.
News was received about 10 o’clock this
morning of the death of Joseph Labadie,
Sr., a well known citizen and business
man. He went to Hot Springs about
three weeks ago to get relief from dropsy,
but his health continued to fail. Yester-
day his wife was advised that the physi-
cians had about given up hope, and she
left on last night’s train.
Joseph Labadie, Sr., was born in Gal-
veston in November, 1841. He was the son
of Dr. N. D. Labadie, one of the pioneers
of the city, and has been in business here
since his early manhood.
The store on Market street is closed to-
day out of respect to the dead. No one
here is authorized to speak concerning
the disposition of the estate.

( ”'0u Again”April 30;Thc Katy Flyer.
A Revelation to the Visitors and a Delight ,
to Home Folk.
It was enough to make a Galvestonian '
feel proud to be at the Garten verein last I
night and listen to the rapturous com- (
ments of the women from up the state
who1 visited the beautiful grounds fbr the 1
first time. The beauty of the Garten
verein is not fully appreciated by Galves-
tonians' and it is only when strangers
come here and point out its myriad at-
tractions that the local people have a
realizing sense of wh-at a charming spot
it is.
Yesterday was practically the formal
opening of the- Garten for the season.
There have- been concerts on Sunday for
some weeks, but they were to test the
popularity of that feature. Yesterday was
-the first of the regular Wednesday con-
certs and marked the- inauguration, of the
Garten verein season of 1899.
Charming does not express the beauty
of the Garten, verein as- it is today. The >
landscape gardener, the artist and the
architect have combined their best talents
to make the Garten one of the most pic-
turesque and beautiful sites in the south
and last night the grounds were like a
picture- of fairyland.
The club women who are in convention
in Galveston were there in a. body and
went- into ecstacies over the parklike
beauty of the whole scene. It is- more
than likely that they will have m-ore to
tell about the Garten verein when they
return to their homes than they will about
the convention proper.
The grounds were, never prettier; there
were never more plants or flowers- in the
Garten; the concert was up to the high
standard the musical committee has es- .
tabblished and the dancing pavilion never
more attractive to young and old alike.
The visitors never tired of -asking ques-
tions about the plan under which the. Gar-
ten is conducted.
“Oh! if we only had a Garten verein in
Dallas!”, exclaimed a pretty woman, who
is a- delegate from the town by the Trini-
ty’s shore.
“And to- think,” said a lady from. Hous-
ton, “that we have nothing, nothing,
nothing at all likeiit in Houston.”
In the early ’ evening the- little ones
i romped and played under the oaks, danced
> to the sweet music of Strauss and other
I musical creators and enjoyed themselves
as only gay and I happy .children can.
I Later the young men and the young
- women held sway.
The night was glorious. The moon
was resplendent imithe southeastern sky,
the air was light and balmy, the fragrance
of the. flowers was /carried on each gentle
breeze, whichever way you looked a pic-,
ture of wonderful': beauty was disclosed
to your view and fthere was the atmos-
phere of purity, ofrpeace, of innocence and
pleasure about it all.
Today Galveston-is riotous with floral
magnificence. Every little garden patch
in the city is a poem set in roses and other
glories of nature. The Garten verein is
the most beautiful of all these pictures,
but charming as were the flowers, glorious
-as were the- roses, the most beautiful of
the sights to- be seen at the Garten last
night were the maids and matrons of Gal-
veston dispensing the hospitality of their
city 'to their sisters up the state.

EIGHTEEN IN IT SURE.
Every One a Warm Favorite, With Hust-
ling Supporters.
It will please the leaders in The Trib-
une’s favorite teacher’s seven weeks’ free
trip to Europe contest to know that every
one has staunch supporters. Not one but
has scores of friends rallying and round-
ing up hundreds, yes thousands of coupons
for their favorites. This is encouraging
and only goes to prove that the race has
not narrowed down to only one or two,
but there are eighteen in it, and all are
being loyally supported. Therefore there
are none of the eighteen who can not feel
but they have just as good a chance as
the next one. -Si-nce last report '
ing is how tlw-y Stood up to 6i
night: 3 &
Four Thousand Acres Leased in the Deep-
water Neighborhood.
Houston Post.
A rice plantation of 4000 acres will be lo-
cated at Deepwater, in Harris county, just
12 miles from Houston.
Mr. W. E-. Jones, a son of fhe late M. T.
Jones, -owns 8000 acres of land in the Deep-
water neighborhood, and has recently
leased 4000 acres to a Louisiana syndicate
for 10 years.
The members of this syndicate are
Messrs. Bell, Kaufman and Bettibo Bros.,
all of Lake Charles. They intend using
the entire tract of land for rice cultivation
and have begun operations. They will put
in 50 8-inch artesian wells and use air
compresses and pumps. Two carloads of
pipes and machinery have already been re-
ceived for this work. Teams are now busy
making the levees, and all the work will
be pushed forward rapidly.
The use of artesian wells and a reser-
voir for the purpose of irrigation is not
the usual method adopted on rice planta-
tions, but in the opinion of the gentlemen
who have leased the Deepwater land it will
prove very successful at that point, and
will do away with the expense of making
long canals. It is only necessary to bore
about 250 feet to reach water on this land,
and the numerous wells that are to be put
in will give an ample supply for the entire
plantation. The wells will all open up into
one reservoir, which will be used to flood
the rice fields. It is estimated that about
30,000,000 gallons of water will be required
daily.
Messrs. Bell, Kaufman & Bettibo are all
experienced business men, and they are
thoroughly satisfied that a big rice farm
in Harris county will be a paying invest-
ment. The Bettibo Bros, have been in the
rice business for years, one of them being
a rice farmer and the other purchasing
agent for the Lake Charles rice mill.
Owing to the lateness of the season they
will hardly be able to, plant over 100 acres
of land in rice this spring, but next year
they expect to have every acre of their
big plantation under cultivation.
The rice farm will utilize the services of
100 men in the cultivation of the crop alone,
it being generally estimated that one man
can cultivate 40 acres. In addition to this
it will give employment to a number of
men in handling the irrigating machinery.
By the opening of next season it is be-
lieved that one of the largest and most
complete rice farms in the entire state will
be seten at Deepwater. The gentlemn who
have made this lease have every eonfi-
dnee in their ability to make it pay, and
firmly believe that Harris county lands,

The Enumerators! Will Begin Work on
the First of May.
The taking of the scholastic census- for
this city will commence on Monday, -May
1, and the law requires that it shall be
completed within 30 days. There will be
an enumerator for each of the 12 wards,
and they will be supplied with necessary
blanks by the state. All children, white
and colored, who ’will be 8 years of age
on the 1st of September next and who
had not reached the age of 17 on the same
date will be listed. The returns will be
made to President Kleberg of the school
board, and by him- turned ever to- the su-
perintendent of public schools, who will
consolidate them. The aggregate last
year indicated a decrease as compared,
with the year previous, which it is
thought was partly attributable to- the
inexperience of some of the enumerators,
and resulted in a decrease ini the amount
of funds apportioned to this place by the
state.

G-ALVESTOZN TRIBUNE
THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL 2.’, 1899.
At the afternoon session of the Feder-
ated Texas Women’s clubs yesterday,
Mrs. Reed Wilson, president of the- Irving
club of Lockhart, addressed the meeting
upon, the subject of “Benefits of House-
hold Economics for Club Women,” hold-
ing that the best club women were the
best housewives.
Miss Eleanor Brackenridge, president of
the woman’s club of San Antonio, led the
discussion on “Club Houses for Club
Women,” stating that after thorough in-
vestigation she had become, convinced
that a club house was the only possible
solution of federated and department
clubs in large towns, as the. house-to-
house method now in vogue unsettled club
life and distracted its work. The club
house plan was endorsed' by Mrs. S. C.
Cobb of the Twenty-one- club of Denison,
by Mrs. Carmichael of the Sesame circle,
Hillsboro, by Mrs. V. O. King of the
American History club of Austin; Mrs-.
Goodhue of the Beaumont -Reading club;

Literary club, Temple; Mrs. W. D. Chris-
tian, Social Science club, Terrell; Mrs.

Wednesday club of Fort Worth, and a
number of others. ,
The point was also made that the fact
that women would have a definite object
in view in building or owning club and
library rooms would add to their zeal in
every department of club life.
“The Value of Imagination
Day Life” wasi
sider ed by M;
Women’s club of Belton.
The theme, “Which Is More Harmful to
Family Life, Nagging or Bad Cooking,
was presented by Mrs. Reese Wilson of
Lockhart, and the response by Miss- Ella
Beauchamp of the Standard club of Bell-
ville, teemed with humorous allusions and
contained many home- thrusts.
The -following resolution was introduced
and adopted by acclamation:
Resolved, by the Texas Federation of
clubs, that the. establishment of the in-
dustrial school for girls in Texas would
not only be an act of justice long denied
to the- future wives and mothers of the
state, but be the means of elevating the
’ homes and bettering the home life of all
our people-.
Resolved, that our thanks are due and
hereby tendered to the house of represent-
atives collectively for its passage by that
body.
Resolved, that we commend to' Senator
J. C. Dibrell the care of the measure in
ihe upper house of the legisalture, with
i confidence in his skill to manage and re-
liance upon the. chivalr.ic manliness of sen-
ators to pass this- measure, so necessary
to the future well being of the daughters
of Toxas.
A vote of thanks was tendered Repre-
sentatives Grubbs f
sage of the bill in,
ativ’es.
Mrs.
club of Vernon read
Neighbors and Yours-,’
ject was cleverly treated.
Miss Annie Burnett of the Monday
Book club of Fort Worth, which is one
of the few girls’ clubs in the federation,
discussed “The Obedience of American
Parents,” holding that parents who took
an interest in their -children’s- pleasures
and who kept abreast with the times were
the ones who retained their children in
social relations and enjoyed that con-
fidence so pleasant to all in perfectly con-
genial families.
TODAY’S PROCEEDINGS-.
The convention was somewhat tardy in
getting down- to business- this morning
and it was after 10 o’clock when the presi-
dent called it to order.
In. consequence of the delay the read-
ing of the minutes of yesterday’s proceed-
ings, as well as the calling of the roll,
was omitted. The seating space in the
hall was well filled, and there appeared to
be a larger attendance than at yester-
day’s opening. There, were not many spec-
tators in the balconies, only 11 ladies oc-
cupying seats- there.
When the hum. of conversation ceased
at the sound of 'the president’s gavel, Rev.
Dr. Carter, rector of Grace church, was
introduced and delivered the invocation..
He prayed that the women of the state
would be blessed with wisdom, and that
in them would be found a. bulwark of
spiritual and mental strength.
The president stated that the morning
session would be devoted to the hearing
of reports from the delegates of the fed-
erated clubs.
The printed program, announced that
these reports would be confined to two
minute talks, but it was found- almost
impossible to confine- them to that limit,
although the; president announced on more
than- one occasion that she would be com-
pelled to enforce the rule in order to ex-
pedite business.
The reports, made by the delegates of
the organization and conduct of their
clubs, the course of study pursued, the
progress made, and the different en.ds-
sought to be attained were very interest-
ing and instructive. The delegates- com-
prise ladies of all ages, from the white
haired grandmother to the young miss of
18, and their reports, teemed With sound
sense, good judgment and scintillations of
humor, which called forth both applause
and laughter from those present when
some timely suggestion was made, or hu-
morous remark uttered. Some of the- dele-
gates made their reports in rhyme.
Among the clubs: reporting were the
following:
Austin: Shakespeare club, American
History club, Pathfinders.
Brya<n: Culture- club.
The baby show will be held on Friday,
May 12, at Cathedral hall. There will be
no dancing, but instead there will be- -a
display of fancy work, flower stands,
candy stands, etc. Cake and ice cream
will be served. JL
