A nor
By the name of Harry came to
station-house last night and desired lodg-
ing. In a few hours afterward his father
came in and took the youngster home.
A Disturbance
Occurred at the grocery store, corner of
Church and Kleventh streets, late last
night, which attracted the attention of
the officers. The parties were arrested.
A Humor
Was atloat last night that a man had
been thrown from his horse, at East
End, and killed. An examination into
the matter proved the report to be un-
true.
No License.
A couple of peddlers, who for some
time have been strolling over the city
and selling only line goods, such as laces
linens, etc., were arrested last night for
not having a license. They were lodged
in jail, and will appear before the Re-
corder this morning.
The Progre*ft
Made on the new Presbyterian church
is each day noticeable. The roofing
preparatory to laying the slate, is now
being put on, and the finish around the
eastern extremity of the building makes
a beautiful addition. It will be a grand
edifice when completed.
Child w anderer.
A little German girl, four or five years
of age, was found during the hard
shower of last evening at the extremity
of East Broadway. The little wanderer
was wet and chilly, and in much distress.
She was unable "to give her name, and
was taken home by an officer and kindly
cared for.
Duly Celebrated.
The crazy woman, commonly known
in the city as Hebrew Mary, was out yes-
terday, celebrating her birthday. She
declared it to be the ninety-eighth anni-
versary. Mary was clad in a fanciful
regalia, and a number of placards adorned
her person. She made several addresses
to children and others, on Broadway and
at the city park.
In Ileadlncmi.
The new line of railway on Avenue L,
extending east from Twenty-second to
Seventh street, and west to Fortieth
street, has been completed and is now in
readiness for the cars. The curves are
laid and the turn-tables down, and as soon
as the cars arrive, it is understood that
they will be placed on the track.

Itlomorlal Service*.
To-day being the fourth anniversary
of the death of the late rector of Trinity
Church, the Rev. Benj. Eaton, D. D., it is
proposed to hold the usual memorial ser-
vices in the church this afternoon, at 5
o'clock. All the old friends of Dr. Eaton
will be glad to pay this annual tribute
to the memoryjof his thirty years rector-
ship.
Good Tiding*.
The announcement of the Superin-
tendent of Public Schools, Judge Dean,
in yesterday's paper, that he had re-
ceived funds from Austin with which to
pay the salaries of teachers was pleasant
news for them. The teachers have been
anxiously awaiting for their February
pay, and now that it is assured, they can
continue their schools on the present sys-
tem of regular tuition rates without fur-
ther solicitude in regard to remuneration.
A lUatter-or-Fact Joke.
Two young lawyers in the city shoul-
dered their muskets yesterday morning
and marched down the island for a hunt.
They were fairly outside the corporate
limits, and one or two jay birds had been
killed when one of the advocates at the
bar espied a strange and unwieldly ob
ject meandering in the distance, which
he declared to be a deer. There was
very little deer about that object to the
ether attorney, but he, a jolly boy,
wanted some fun. Innocence was
feigned and his comrade urged on. He
crawled up and banged away at the nan
nygoat of a poor farmer living just be-
low the race park. The animal had its
fore-leg broken, and after damages were
paid the two returned to study up the
best legal method of concealing this
joke.
flight From the Lava Beds.
" over the left.
The savages have entered the city and
now hold possession of the base ball
park. They are a terrible set of men,
and one would think from their looks
that they would brave any danger for a
little Robinson county. They marched
through the city yesterday preceeded by
a brass band, and it was quite jolly to
watch our citizens, without regard to
race, color or condition, charge into some
store near at hand and peep out at the
warlike Modocs. Little boys became un-
manageable, while not a few of the pious
ones sought the quietude and
seclusion of the garret of their homes,
where they engaged in the Lord's prayer
until the danger was over. Intense ex-
citement prevailed. One young lady
fainted and fell into the arms of her es-
cort. She had been waiting for that op-
portunity forty-oue days, lie held her
up with one hand, placed the other in his
hip pocket, grasped a plug of bad tobac-
co and boldly awaited the onslaught. It
wan a beautiful picture. The stern .defiant
look of that brave young cavalier con-
trasted admirably with the linely chiseled
features of her who rested on his arm,
insensible to the impending danger, and
whose ashen lips told plainly of the dull
flow of life's blood. This was one of
those times that tries the souls of men.
He was faithful to his trust, but we'll
wager four bits in city scrip that this
sweet little fairy will jilt that young
man, and bestow her love on some fel-
low who would run from a Texas cow.
Such is life! But this is not meant to
disparage young men from trying their
hand where, goodness knows! they have
no show. They have all got to learn.
A young married couple coming down
the street were smiling and cooing over
one another at a great rate until they
caught sight of the warriors marching
up. The bride grasped the arm of her
protector firmly, and wanted to know if
there wasn't daDger. He laughed at the
idea. But just at that moment one of
the wild Indian warriors gave a genuine
battle war-whoop. It was refreshing to
gee those young married people skip
down a by street and disappear from
sight around the next corner. She would
have fainted on the same principle as the
lady above mentioned, but she didn't
have any curiosity now. Even the
dumb brutes felt the marrow chill
within their bones when that war-whoop
went up. Three little fashionable black
and tan dogs, with red cloaks buckled on
them, were playing with a shop keeper's
cat when the Indians came up. At the
sound of the whoop they left for the
beach without any notice, and when last
seen were hiding in among Burnett &
Kilpatrick's teams.
If old Powliattan could have lived to
see a tribe of his race march down the
streets of a civilized city behind a brass
band, what would he have thought?
Here is a problem for your Darwinian
folks. It is confidently asserted by
man who has traveled extensively over
the country, who has seen many Indians
at a safe distance, and who has spent i
sight at Hog Island, that the great east
em chief would have said " Tunck-
mauckcliunksquallicuin " and died. That
is one of the most expressive words in
the Indian language, to judge by the
size of it. It is like the word " superero-
gation," which the writer has been try
ing to ring into this article. It is a good
word, a high-sounding word, but it were
better to Jet it alone. It has to be used
just right or the interior newspapers will
get excited. _ ^

new business.
By Mosebach : An ordinance providing
for making the assessments for the en-
suing year.
Mr. Mosebach thought it well to act on
the ordinance at once.
Mr. Sealy was of the same opinion, as
there could be nothing gained by delay.
The ordinance was read twice and
placed on its final passage. Yeas 12,
nays 0.
By Mr. Mosebach : The following re-
solution :
Be it resolved by the City Council of the
City of Galveston, That the owners of
real estate which has been improved by
the construction of side-walks, be and
are hereby allowed to pay the amount of
the assessments made for the cost of said
improvements in side-walk improvement
bonds, which were issued to the contract-
ors who executed the work for which
the assessment upon their real estate
has been levied; provided, the same
shall be paid previous to first of June,
1875.
Mr. Sealy thought it proper to refer
the resolution to the Finance Committee
to whom the Council had given instruc-
tions to prepare an ordinance covering
the case. He moved to refer to that com-
mittee. Carried.
By Mr. Marlow, the following resolu-
tion :
Resolved, That the Committee on
Printing be and they are hereby author-
ized to advertise for bids to contract for
doing the city printing for one year from
April 1st, 1875, The bids to be in on the
last day of March, at 12 M., and to be
opened and awarded by the Council at
the first regular meeting in April, 1875.
Adopted.
By Mr. Nichols the following resolu-
tion :
Resolved, That from and after the first
day of April, 1875. the office of Market
Inspector be discontinued, and that a re-
solution adopted July 7,1873, authoriz-
ing the Mayor to appoint a Market In-
spector and fixing the compenoation of
the same, be and the same is hereby re-
pealed. *
Adopted.
By Mr. Nichols the following resolu
tion:
Resolved, that from and after the first
day of April, 1875, the office of Health
Inspector be discontinued.
Adopted.
Mr. Jordan could not see the use of
abolishing these offices. He thought
they would be created again before
many weeks rolled around. He asked
Mr. Nichols to withdraw his resolution.
This Mr. Nichols refused to do.
The resolution was passed by a vote
of 10 to 2.
By Mr. Nichols: The following reso-
tion :
Resolved, That the Superintendent of
Streets be, and he is hereby directed to
dispense with the services of the person
now employed as Inspector of Wind-
mills, from and after April 1st, 1875.
Adopted.
By Mr. Nichols, the following reso-
lution :
Resolved, That from and after the first
day of Apiil, 1875, the office of Immigra-
tion Agent be discontinued, and that that
portiou of the resolution adopted April
18, 1874, making an appropriation to pay
the Immigration Agent $100 per month,
be and the same is hereby repealed.
Adopted.
Mayor Fulton said he was prepared to
make nominations for city officers, and,
as it was necessary to ballot in confirma-
tion of them, he would appoint Alder-
men Davie and Chapman as tellers.
The following are the nominations and
the votes taken on each:
citt attorney.
A. H. Willie—ayes 9, nays 3.
city clerk.
E. O'C. Maclnerney—ayes 4, nays 8.
Further nominations postponed until a
subsequent meeting.

made unanimous. Seconded and carried.
chief of tolice.
John H. Westerlage—ayes 7, nays 5.
detuty chief.
Mr. M. Jordan—ayes 8, nays 4.
When the nomination for Recorder
was made, Mr. Mosebach desired, in order
to remove any doubts as to the time for
which the present incumbent was ap-
pointed, that the minutes of the meeting
at which the appointment was made be
read. From them it appeared that R. M.
l evis was elected to serve out an unex-
pired term. This being satisfactory, the
balloting went on.
recorder.
Leslie Thompson—ayes 7 ; nays 5.
health and quarantine physician.
G. W. Peete—ayes 11 ; nays 1.
hospital physician.
Dr. C. C. Campbell—ayes 11; nays 1.
superintendent of streets.
Bernard Loughery—ayes G; nays 5.
Alderman Davie was excused from
voting.
Mr. Mosebach thought the vote might
not be considered a majority vote, and to
remove all doubt on the subject, he
moved that the matter be referred to the
City Attorney.
Mr. Davie said in order to dispose of
the matter without further delay, he
would vote " yes."
The Mayor asked leave to read
a letter of recommendation for the
office of City Engineer. The letter
was from General Bragg, and was com
mendatory of Mr. Harris, whom he
(Mayor Fulton) desired to place in nomi-
nation.
Mr. Mosebach said General Bragg was
considered a successful military com-
mander, but he was not aware that his
recommendations for a city engineer of
Galveston claimed any special advantage
because coming from him.
Mr. Carville thought as the majority of
the board knew little or nothing about
Mr. Harris, action on his nomination had
better be postponed.
Mayor Fulton was willing to submit if
such was the behest of the Council.
The nomination wag therefore postponed.
The balloting then continued on the
remaining nominations.

Postponed.
In consequence of the small number
present at the meeting of the Seamen's
Benevolent Association last night, any
action upon the order of business which
should regularly have come up before the
members was postponed until some fu
ture time.
Theatrical.
The small number present at the Opera
House last night found much to enjoy in
the performance. The programme was
the same as that presented the night pre-
vious.
To-night Mr. M. B. Snyder, the popular
Stage Manager, takes his benefit. In the
part of the management of the Opera
House consigned to him during this sta-
son, Mr. Snyder has done much in mak
ing the entertainments given there a
success. As an actor, also, he is es
teemed. In paying this last tribute to
Mr. Snyder, most patrons of the theater
will no doubt compliment him by their
presence. Upon this occasion the poeti-
cal drama of " Enoch Arden " will grace
the stage.
City Council Notes.
The lobby of the Council Chamber was
crowded with lookers on last night during
the proceedings. Curiosity in regard to
the appointments seemed to be the mag-
net that drew them together, and loud
applause followed every confirmation.
The usual routine business was passed
over in order to take up and act on nom-
inations. Important measures that were
to have been entertained will come up
therefore at the next regular meeting.
Considerable merriment was created
at the mention of the " Wind Mill In-
spector." Very few had ever heard of
that office.
As the resolutions providing for the
abolishment of certain offices were read
there was a visible sensation in the
audience and doubtless many hearts went
ilippity-flap," as the dirge over the
grave of their blasted hopes was sounded.
From the manner in which the new
board has started out it is to be inferred
that they intend to turn over a new leaf
Tlie Courts.
District Court.—A meeting of the
Bar was held yesterday for the purpose
of setting cases.
Criminal Court.—State vs. Alex. W.
Poole, charged with an assault with in
tent to murder. Continued.

terms of the Legislature shall be accept-
ed as a finality. A meeting so important,
will doubtless stimulate a full represent
ation of stock.
Firing Off Pistols.—Residents in
the eastern portion of the city have for
some time past been annoyed by the dis-
charge of pistols at night. Heretofore
the police have been unable to come up
with the shootists. Yesterday, however,
one of them, a negro, l'atton Random by
name, was pounced upon by an offic r
and caged, for trying the strength of his
powder in an old six-shooter.
Row in Main Street.—A grand row
among negroes occurred before day yes-
terday in Main street, the cursing,
swearing and vile obscenity of which
were audible for half a mile, Officer
Brogeman appeared on the scene and
arrested the principal actors, Jacob Dun-
lop, Pollx Gordon, Sallie Turner and
Dunlop's wife. They were all fined yes-
terday in a small amount. This is one
of many instances wherein respectable
and refined families are forced to listen
to the foul oaths and obscenity of dis-
gusting negro wretches.
Gone Home—A negro convict, who
killed one of his guards and escaped
seme time since, was recaptured in
Austin county last wetk. The ex peni-
tentiary boarder was surrounded in the
house of a friend and taken. Since his
capture he has been pretty roughly
handled, on account of his bad conduct,
having been several times treated to the
stocks and the old-fashioned lash, whose
marks were left on his back and lower
limbs. He was brought down to Hous-
ton, and left for Huntsville on the 2 p.m.
Wednesday Great Northern train for
that place.
Vagrancy.—The new city police are
after the vagrants and idlers with a sharp
stick, and the indications are that Mar-
shal Erickson will force all suspicious
individuals living without visible means
of support to change their manner of
life or leare the city. The invariable
complaint of these roosters when brought
up is, "I can't find anything to do."
Yet the quiet farms in the country offer
any amount of employment, and profita-
ble too. Two young men, calling them-
selves McCarty and Stevens, were ar-
rasted yesterday morning for vagrancy.
The latter got a $100 bond, but McCarty
was dismissed. These two are under
stood to be the first of a series of va-
grant cases.
Poor Lo !—It is known to those read-
ers of the News who reside on Middle
Trinity that in Livingston county there is
an ancient settlement of Indians, who
dwell in houses and live by farming, yet
adhering to all the Indian customs of
dress, etc. The women dress in calico,
their black eyes and coal black hair sur-
passing those of the Mexican Senorita ;
but the men go in moccasins, breech
cloths, bare-headed, with brass orna-
ments, carry the old fashioned rifle, and
ride grass ponies. Periodically a small
party of these aboriginals visit Hous-
ton on horseback. One of these
poor " Ingins" rode through Main
street yesterday ; his long hair
flowed down the rounded shoulders
he carried a haunch of venison tied
to his saddle, while* a wild turkey,
slain by his unerring rifle, liung dan-
gling from the same. The coarse shirt
and leggins had in them little romance
but the thoughtful observer turned his
imagination from this eon of the forest,
alone amid the civilization that has for
ever swept away his hunting grounds
from Middle Texas, to the history of his
race, so blended with that of our conti
nent.

Speaking of the late action of the
Texas Legislature on the Interna-
tional Railroad subsidy, the New
York Railroad Gazette says:
The International Company, we under- I
stand, will now proceed to extend its
road from its present terminus at Rock-
dale to Austin, a distance of sixty-two |
miles, which will put it in much better
shape to obtain traffic and leave but I

1 iie Trtjtiifol Test.—It requires no
learned experts or scientific experiments
to establish the fact that Dr. Price's
Cream Baking Powder is not only the
purest but positively the strongest. If
any housewife will make sweeter, lighter
and more digestible bread, biscuits, cakes,
etc., with two teaspoonfuls of Dr. Price's
Powder to one quart of flour than can be
made with three teaspoon fuls of other
kinds, is it not an incontestible proof of
its purity and greater strength V Give
them a fair trial, and also Dr. Price's
Flavoring Extracts. If they please you
recommend them to your neighbor if not
return them and have your money re
funded, and denounce the articles as vile
impositions. We have no fear of your
doing this if you get Dr. Price's, and to
be certain of this, buy them only in un
broken cans, as Dr. Price's Powder is
sold by the manufacturers in no other
way.
