A full pint of cough syrup—as much
as you could buy for $2.50—can easily
fee made at home. You will find nothing
that takes hold of an obstinate cough
more quickly, usually ending it inside
of 24 hours. Excellent, too, for whoop-
ing cough, sore lungs, asthma, hoarse-
ness and other throat troubles.
Mix 1 pint of granulated sugar with
sz, pint of warm water and stir for 2
minutes. Put 2% ounces of Pinex (50
cents’ worth) in a pint bottle; then add
the Sugar Syrup. It keeps perfectly.
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
This is just laxative enough to help
cure a cough. Also stimulates the appe-
tite, which is usually upset by a cough.
The taste is pleasant.

Cools Air, But Threatens No Damage
to Growing Crops.
The light norther promised by the
weather bureau came up last night
shortly after midnight, causing a low-
ering of the temperature of about 12
degrees by this morning. On looking
up the records of the local weather bu-
reau it was found that this is the first
time the wind has shifted to the north
(except on one period for about one
hour, due to local conditions) since the
evening of Jan. 4th, the longest period
in the history of the local weather bu-
reau that there has been continuous
southerly winds in the months of Janu-
ary and February. ■
The norther that is prevailing today
is of sufficient intensity to only cool
the aid and in no wise to threaten the
growing crops or the fruit orchards
of the southern part of the state.
Further north it is naturally colder,
freezing weather being reported in the
Red Rive Valley and in Oklahoma.
While there has been ■ considerable
rain in Texas, reports received today in-
dicate that in no wise is the drought
broken, the rain being light and in
many places hardly sufficient to lay
the dust. At Abilene there was a fall
of .52 inch, Palestine .30, Taylor .06,
and at San Antonio .01.
Locally the- weather bureau reports
that the norther now prevailing will
last for the coming twelve hours and
that during tonight there might be
showers. This period will probably be
followed' by clearing weather.

A pretty though quiet wedding was j
that of Mr. Homer Tripp of Tuscon,
Ariz., and Miss Maybelle Ogilry, which
was solemnized last evening at 7
o’clock at the residence of the bride’s
parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Ogilvy,
Rev. Robert McAlpine Hall, pastor of
the First Presbyterian church, offi-
ciating.
The drawing room was decorated
with ferns and exquisite white carna-
tions. These banked the mantels, ped-
estals and piano. A palm bower was
arranged in the southeast corner of
the drawing room, where the nuptial
Vows were plighted. Marie Antoniette
baskets, filled with white carnations,
were suspended from the chandeliers
which were veiled in white tulle.
The bride entered with her father,
who gave her away. - She looked lovely
in her traveling suit of light gray
crepe cloth which was worn with a
handsome white Chantilly lace waist,
trimmed with Irish lace. A most be-.
coming spring hat of coral straw and
gray velvet rolled brim with airgrettes
completed her toilette. She wore a cor-
sage bouquet of orbhids, lilies of the
valley and ferns.
The handsome white satin pillows
were the same used at the Wilson-
Rogers wedding five years ago.
Only the immediate relatives o.f the
young couple were present to witness
the /ceremony, and a few intimate
friends came m informally to extend
congratulations.
A dainty wedding-
served.
The bride was a charter member of
Aged War Veteran Believes
-Weapon is in Texas.
A letter from Mr. Arthur B. Homer,
the former well known manager of
the Galveston Rope Mills, now resid-
ing at Quinby, Mass., states that a
friend of his is in search of a sword
lost during the war between the states.
Mr. Homer and Mr. John Read, who
were school boys together, met recent-
ly at a banquet in Quincy, after many
years separation. In swapping stories
of their 'experiences, Mr. Read, who
was a northern soldier, serving on
the U. S. S. Granite City, told of being
captured by Texas troops at Calcasieu j
Pass, on May 6th, 1864, and of being |
imprisoned at Hempstead and later
exchanged at dalveston.
When taken prisoner, Mr. Read sur-
rendered a sword to his captors, which
jie is now extremely anxious to locate
and. if possible, secure possession of
again. It was marked on the blade
with £is name, “John Read.” Mr. Read,
who is now a white-haired old grand-
father, would be willing to pay a re-
ward for the possession of his, sword, i
if it cam be located. He thought from |
being captured by Texas troops and [
imprisoned in Texas the sword, if still
in existence, would most likely be in
the possession of some Texan whose
eyes might fail upon these lines and
another “exchange” be satisfactorily
arranged between the “north and
south’ that would result in the glad-
dening of a heart that beats for all
those who tramped in either the blue
or the gray.

THE LYRIC
THE SUMMER GARDEN PICTURE SHOW.
Always Comfortable, Sweet and Pleasant.
Shortly after 7 o’clock yesterday
evening, the jury( in the case of C. C.
Quin, charged with making false can-
vass of votes at primary election held
in Houston Heights, returned a ver-
dict of not guilty.
This case was called for trial on
Tuesday morning and has occupied the
time of the court from that day until
last evening. Tuesday .morning '-was
taken up with arranging the legal
preliminaries and in the afternoon
witnesses were examined. All of Wed-
nesday morning was taken up with the
examination of witnesses and at noon
both sides rested their cases and the
arguments were begun. It was 5
o’clock yesterday afternoon when
Counsel Kendall for the prosecution
completed his argument.
Judge Robinson’s charge followed
the plain charge along the line of the
indictment, an instruction as to cir-
cumstantial evidence being the only
addition. It was short. The charge
was given to the jury at 5 o’clock.
They retired five minutes later, and at
7.05 reported a verdict of not guilty.
There is another case against the
same defendant and eight against
Charles A. York charged with similar
offense at the same time, but these
will not be taken up this yeek.
About 150 witnesses from Houston
were in the city yesterday, about half
of them having been summoned on
Tuesday,and most of these were in the
courtroom when the verdict was ren-
dered.
There was no session of court today,
Judge Robinson being in Houston, but
court will open tomorrow with the ac-
cumulation of cases set for Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday.
The social events of tomorrow are:
The afternoon tea given by Mrs.
Edward Girardeau in honor of her de-
butante, daughter, Miss
rardeau.
In the evening Mr. and Mrs. "William
A. McVitie entertain with a box party

ment to Miss Rebecca. Terry and her
guest, Miss Catherine Wodell of New
Ys;rk, Who is being extensively enter-
tained while here.
the Girls’ Card Club and is much be-
loved by a host of friends. Mr. Tripp
is well known here, as he was at one
time a member of the Gulf, Colorado
& Santa Fe onicial family, but is now
with the Southern Pacific.
The young couple left at 7:30 o’clock
for their future home in Tuscon, Ariz.,
visiting several of the larger cities en-
route. A host of friends were at Union
station to give them a royal “send off.”
The wedding gifts were very hand-
some.
Prominent among the out-of-town
guests were: Mrs. J. P. Hawkes of
Temple, maternal grandmother of the
bride, and Master Marsh Purcell, a stu-
dent of Peacock Military college of
San Antonio, cousin of the groom, and
Miss May Horlock of Navasota, Texas.
Mr. and Mrs. Andrew McElveriey of
Houston, cousins of the bride, came
down for the wedding. Both Mr. £nd
Mrs. McElveney are well known in
this city, the former being a member
of the Santa Fe official family here
when Colonel W. C. Nixon was vice
president and general manager. Mr.
McElveney is now with the Frisco.
Mrs. McElveney was before marriage
Miss Lillian Wilcox of Temple, and
was a frequent visitor here.
Bill Permitting- Ice Companies to Do It
Passes Senate.
Special to The Tribune.'
Austin, Tex., Feb. 9.—Senator Greer
offered an amendment to the incorpor-
ation laws permitting ice companies to
do a cold storage business. This ad-
dtion started a lively discussion. Sen-
ator Collins declared that instead of
helping local concerns as the author
claimed for the bill it would create
a monopoly’ of ice plants, as no other
concerns could buy manufactured ice
and compete with ice concerns manu-
facturing their own ice.
Senator McNealus was not in favor
of granting ice plants the right to
engage in so many, different branches
of business. He sail an investigation
is now going on in Uallas to determine
if the ''ce plants there are a trust.
Senator Carter favored the bill, de-
claring that small 'ice plants of small
towns under this law would be per-
mitted to do the same business as the
big packing companies, enabling them
to compete with the big trusts. The
Greer cold storage bill was passed
finally, 25 to 4.
Dear Public f
It is our delightful privilege to announce that, beginning Saturday next, we will pre-
sent you with the rarest treat that has ever been bestowed upon patrons of the photo-
play in Galveston.
Through a series of fortunate circumstances we have been enabled to obtain the
services of Mr. Thomas Watkins, who has just arrived from England, from whose cold
and foggy shores he fled to our balmjr clime in search of health.
Mr. Watkips is a grand opera tenor of renown, both in England and in South Afri-
ca, and South America, where he has toured extensively.
As to his qualifications, the rank of his tutors and preceptors is a sufficient guaran-
tee. He took a four years’ course in the St. Cecelia Conservatory of Rome and also a
series of private instructions^ from the illustrious Simms Reeves of England, admittedlly
the greatest tenor the world has ever known. These instructions, together with the natu-
rally beautiful tenor voice of Mr. Watkins, give him rank among the very best of vo-
calists.
It is Mr. Watkins’ intention to open a conservatory of voice culture here, and he
considers that this arrangement will give him an opportunity of advertising his capabili-
ties in this connection, and hence we are enabled to secure the services of a singer of such
qualities as would be impossible for any Photoplay Theater under ordinary circum-
stances.
Owing to the great strain attendant upon the rendition of this character of sing-
ing, it will be impossible for Mr. Watkins to sing but a short while each day, so he will
only sing between 7:3o and g :3c in the evenings,

MONDAY, MARCH 6.
27471. Charles Funk and
About ten or twelve men were ar-
rested last night and charged with va-
grancy for begging and bumming on
the streets. In court this morning
three of them were fined $5, which
with court costs made the penalty
$20.35 for each of them. Others were
fined $1 and costs, making the penalty
$16.35, and the city rock pile force will
be increased about ten men for two or
three weeks.
.One young man when arrested car-
ried seven new pocket knives, which he
he had picked up. He claimed to
be just in from Dallas, and the police
believe the cutlery is stolen property.
Two young boys, aged 16 and 18,
were among those picked up by the po-
lice. They said their homes were in
;Fort Worth, and that they came here
looking for work, but were unfortu-
nate in not finding employment and
■were arrested.
Another stranger in the city was
caught biting the heads off matches
and “throwing” a fit to excite sympa-
thy from passers-by, who were asked
for a few dimes to send him to the
hospital. The stranger laughed when
the police told the story in court, and
did not deny it. The court fined him
five dollars.

A dinner was given at Ritter’s cafe
last night in honor of Mr. George Mc-
Quaid, editor of the Galveston News,
and Mr. L. C. Boadley, general man-
ager of the Galveston Electric Com-
pany and of the Galveston-Houston In-
terurban Company, both of whom have
but recently become residents of Gal-
veston.
The gathering was a representative
one, composed of thirty of Galveston’s
prominent citizens and business men.
Mr. I. H. Kempner presided as toast-
master. Toasts were responded to by
Mayor Fisher, Mr. J. H. Langbehn, Mr.
George McQuaid, Mr. L. C. Bradley,
Judge M. E. Kleberg, Mr. Tom Finty,
Jr., Mr. C. H. Moore, Judge R. A. Pleas-
ants, Major Howell, Mr. H. A. Black,
Hoon. E. .F Harris and Julius W. Jock-
usch.
Toastmaster Kempner prepared for
the speaking in the following remarks:
“When this occasion was planned, it
was undei stood that the event was in
honor of two corporations that have
sbeen intimately connected with and in-
terested in Galveston, Her progress,
her past and her future. In the days
of gloom that came over us ten years
ago there were no two corporations
that did more to hold up our hands, or
that went deeper into their pockets for
our assistance than the two whose rep-
resentatives are our guests of honor
tonight. Since those days we have
grown to know the personal equation
that is to be recognized in our rela-
tion with these representatives, and
that our relations have assumed. It is
this personal equation that makes this
event a personal compliment and tri-
bute to them. I know that I. reflect
the sentiments of all gathered here in
proposing a toast of welcome—and
most cordial welcome. I ask all of you
gentlemen, to arise and to drink to the
health of Mr. McQuaid and Mr. Brad-
ley.”
