brave hopeful eyes, and whose mission- was
to make people about him wiser, happier,
merrier and better. Here in our beloved
Texas, we are assembled from all parts of
of our grand old Fatherland, having
brought with us our undying love for our
country’s language, her songs and her past-
times. We do not claim to be world re-
formers, bnt we do wish to engraft upon
the busy, stirring, eager, money getting
character of the American people, some of
the genial merriment and innocent pleas-
ures which we Germans so love and enjoy.
We cordially invite their co-operation in
our efforts
With the usual thanks for kind attention.
Dr. L. ended with a hurrah for Germany,
in which he was heartily joined.
Mr. Hamlin was even more pointed and
emphatic than Dr. Ludwig in his depreca-
tion of the absorption of Americans in
money getting, and more hopeful of the
benficial effects which would ensue from the
efforts -of our German fellow citizens to
introduce harmless amusements among us.
He referred at some length to the Greeks as
an eminently pleasure loving people, and to
the lasting monuments of literature and
art they had left to succeding ages, as proof
that love of pleasure and a high degree of
mental culture go hand in hand. He hoped
we would copy the pleasure loving Greeks,

The object of the Hubertus Club was not
only perfection in the use of fire arms, but
to encourage and foster among its members
nn. "1 p gei example the community,
unity, sociality and culture. Especially
were they to battle against puritanism and
phariseeism by the cultivation of innocent,
pleasures and free harmonious intercourse
between Americans and Germans. They
did' not mean to array themselves as ene-
mies against Americans, but to command
by their upright, honorable and independ-
ent lives, the respect of all men. By cring-
ing and submission this could not be done;
who respects not himself cannot command
respect from others. »'
The Club was but young, a boy who
looked life and mankind in the face with

"NEVER TOO LATE.”
A rooster whose name is given as
Never-Too-Late, by the police, was arrested
.. Last night while drunk on mean whisky.
He had to be helped to the cage in an ex-
tremely wiry and somnolent condition.
The Recorder deeming it never-too-late to
mend, dismissed the inebriate.

The co-partnership between B. Tumy & M. MY EKS I ON,
Dr. Ludwig’s speech was terse, compre-
hensive, elegantly worded and admirably
delivered. Consumung only fifteen min-
utes, it did not tire the most impatient, and
nothing was left unsaid.
It was, he said, his first appearance as a
public speaker, and while he was proud and
grateful to have been selected to deliver the
German oration, he deprecated a 'too se-
vere criticism upon his maiden speech. He
had been here but a short time, but had en-
deavored to be an exemplary citizen.
He had never been an aiderman, nor was
he any way responsible for the big Market
House, which had caused Houston so much
trouble, or the Ship Channel, which had
given our sister eity so many sleepless
nights.
The Club was named for Hubert, who
lived in the reign of Theoderic II, and was
noted not only for his prowess in hunting
and bravery in battle, but even more for
his unswerving fidelity to his friends and
word, and his devotion to literature and
ait.

DIED SUDDENLY. *
An aged man named Kelley died sud-
denly last evening while sitting in his chair
at the boarding house on Market Square
kept by Mr. Peter Rhein. A short time
previously Kelley asked Mr. Rhein to take
a drink with him, which he did. Kelly
taking whiskey. After this he attempted
to eat supper but arose from the table
choking, He is reported to have bee seen
subsequently handling a small paper sup-
posed to have contained poison. Deceased
had but $1.30 on his person and was a tailor
by trade.
The verdict of the jury was death from
eating and drinking. We learn no physi-
cian was present or any medical testimony
taken, which, we think, should have been
the case. The body of the decesed man
was laid out at police headquarters.
