Austin. Tex., March 9.—-Probably the gov-
ernor was not induced to discipline the
legislature on account of wasted time.
Sixty days is an infinitesimal arc in the
eyele of time required to legislate Texas
out of the financial quagmire. If not ap-
parent to the governor it. is plain enough
to others that the trouble with the legis-
lature- is that the longer it is in session
the more apt are members to become for-
getful of the taxpayers at home and of
their pledges to the people in the way of
retrenchment and reform. If at the start
off there was any general and public Un-
derstanding of the legislative programme
it was that there would be wholesale re-
trenchment and that taxes were not to be
raised. But now if there is anything gen-
erally conceded by the legislature it is
that adequate retrenchment is out of t|ie
question and taxes must be raised almost
to the constitutional limit. Do the people
away from the capital see things dimly
as through the mist of ignorance and
prejudice and were members of the legis-
lature fresh from contact with the great
unwashed, imbued with unappreciative jeal-
ousy of the tax eaters, their needs and
merits. These queries must be affirma-
tively answered else their gradual aban-
donment of retrenchment schemes as clay
toy. day they meet the official family can
be explained only upon the hypothesis that
members are cajoled and deceived into
forgetfulness of public sentiment and their
own solemn pledges. The governor could
not reasonably complain of waste of time
had he not perceived that the expenditure
of time only gave greater opportunity for
the blandishments of the lobby; when he
lectured members the waste of time com-
plained of was probably only a pretext to
recall attention to public expectation
which had been lost to mind and view.
The executive bugle, however, sounds too
late, Although it is true that the two
houses have considered the various plat-
form demands and executive recommenda-
tions the action had upon most of them
is unfavorable. They linger upon the cal-
endars in sundry stages of disfigurement
and decomposition. Some are headless,
others are denuded of caudal ornament
and all gasping, so to speak, by loss of
blood and breath from remorseless amend-
ments.
While the house finance committee had
through The News furnished the gov-
ernor thf information that the budget
agreed upon, reduced expenses in the ag-
gregate more than he had insisted was
necessary, still the measures of reform
which would obviate the necessity for de-
fieiency appropriations had been killed or
were on the road to the legislative grave-
yard. For instance, the budget reduces
appropriations for the judiciary about
$200,0(|0 per annum. But if this department
gpes alonp under existing laws as to fees
and salaries the $200,000 will, Nevertheless,
be earned and tlu- next legislature must
provide for it by a deficiency appropria-
tion. The governor was not willing to par-
ticipate in the fraud and delusion of parad-
ing a deficiency appropriation as a genu-
ine retrenchment. The people would save
nothing ami the government would In the
end cost the same. The only difference
would be that if a sufficient appropriation
to meet the expenses of t lie judiciary de-
partment under existing laws was made
and revenues were short the man 'V brok-
ers would share warrants at only 2 to 5
per cent, while if a pretended retrench-
ment of »,000 was made under the same
laws, warrants might not be discounted
si) soon, but the comptroller's certificates
tor the $200,000 would be shaved jo to L'.j
per cent. The officials at the capital
would be protected, but the officials of
the various counties who serve the judi-
ciary department would have to stand the
s'have. Insufficient appropriations which
lhembers boast as retrenchments benefit
money brokers only, ami the state being
required ultimately to make good the de-
ficiencies saves nothing.
The condition of the bills intended to re-
duce expenses by limiting the service of
public officers and curtailing their fees
does not promise any justification for re-
ducing the appropriations and entailing
thereby corresponding deficiency appro-
priations at the next session. Jt'seems to
the writer that what was predicted the
first of the session in his correspondence
will be realized. Then the idea was ad-
vanced that the retrenches would be
foiled by the daily continuous pleadings
o'f public beneficiaries and by the large
element in the legislature firmly attached
to the political fortunes of the late gov-
ernor who would never admit by their
votes that the extravagance of his'admin-
istration had swamped the treasury. Ac-
cordingly the situation now foi bodes a
quite extensive programme ot' apparent
curtailment in appropriations, but no real
■ reduction iti the expenses of the govern-
ment. There is plenty of time to cut out
the cause and occasion of extravagance,
but doubtless the governor had concluded
that the legislature was drifting further
away from such real reform every day.
How far legislative forgetfulness had
drifted is shown by the caucus action of
the house m reference to 'the dispatch of
business. The seven measures the caucus
agreed to g;v» the right of way as being
must important include five recommended
by. the ex-governor, one distinctively Hie
measure of the present governor and one
the measure which all -the politicians and
hangers-on of all factions require, namely,
tlie general appropriation bill. The gov-
ernor in his special message named over a
dozen measures, of which the caucus se-
lected only one—the bill to define trusts—
as worthy of precedence. l»y wav of paren-
thesis it may be said that this'bill simply
means that the legislature coincides with
the governor in ;he contention that per-
sons who engage in trusts are b.^^-itizens
ami ought to be reprimanded and in,thing
more. While it is evident that there N no
limit to the legislative session, vet the cau-
cus action and th • r ite of reform measures
that the longer the session

had utterly forgotten and repudiated their
promises and pledges, and 'intimate, as he
does, the intention to appeal to the people
to Imperatively instruct their representa-
tives upon the calling of a special session
All along The News has foreshadowed fail-
ure and it is evident the governor has
finally experienced quite a severe tumble to
this fact.

BRAZORIA COUNTY BONDS.
Alvin, Tex., March S.—To the Honorable
Senate and House of Representatives of
the State of Texas: At a mass meeting of
the democrats of Alvin and vicinity, con-
vened at Alvin on March 5, 1895, it was
unanimously resolved that a protest be sent
to the legislature against the passage of
the bill permitting Brazoria county to
issue any bonds, as the limit has already
been passed and the books of the county
are in such a deplorable condition that
only an expert will be abl£ to untangle
them, and until this is done and the coun-
ty's financial condition fully explained we
think it very unwise to permit any further
increase of her indebtedness or to grant
her any latitude whatever beyond her pres-
ent bond issues.
We therefore petition your honorable
bodies that any bill looking to the issue of
any bonds by Brazoria county do not
pass. J NO. WILBURN,

Paris, Tex., March 9.—One. of the most
horrible crimes in the annals of Lamar
county was enacted at the little town of
Roxton last night by a mother, horrible in
all of its details and premeditated for
months.
Last night Mrs. Caruthers, the wife of
a prosperous ginner of the place named,
put her three little ones to bed, two little
boys, aged 4 and 10 years respectively, and
a girl of 13. Once safely in bed she quietly
retired to the kitchen to prepare the fatal
dose. She used morphine mixed with chill
tonic In deadly proportions. Running to
where the children lay sleeping, she took
the baby in her arms and administered the
deadly drug. Next she took up the older
boy and did likewise. "When the children
began to rave, moan and groan with vio-
lent pain, fearing that death would not en-
sue, she repeated the dose. When she had
made sure of her work she awoke her
daughter and endeavored to drug her un-
der a pretense of giving her quinine. The
daughter heard the groans of her little
brothers and would not take the dose. The
mother enV. eated her, but to no avail, -end
late during the night, fearing the return
of and discovery by the father, she forced
the drug down her daughter's throat.. Her
stomach would, not retain It, and she may
survive. The husband returned, and find-
ing that something horrible had happened,
seeing his children in the tortures of a hor-
rible death, accused his wife of poisoning
them, but she stoutly maintained her in-
nocence. The husband aroused the neigh-
bors and went for medical aid. While on
this errand the wife and mother again
forced a dose down her daughter's throat,
but without fatal result as yet.
When the neighbors had arrived, seeing
that her children were beyond human aid,
she meekly confessed her crime and sur-
render'"! to the officers. The little ones
died in great agony soon after,
Jim Strange occupies a cell as an accom-
plice.
She and Strange were brought in to-night
and are now in jail, where a News reporter
gleaned the following interview from Mrs.
Caruthers, who wa-s greatly excited and,
in fact, hysterical with emotion, constantly
wringing her hands and tearing her hair:
"My name is Mary Jane Caruthers (that
is. I suppose it is, if I know it). I was
married under the assumed name of Mat-
ter-son; I am 35 years old; my husband runs
a gin at Roxton, our home: we have three
children, two little boys, 4 and 10 years old,
and a girl of IB; T poisoned all three of
them; 1 hoped to kill t'liem all so that we
could go to rest together; you don't know
how much trouble I have had; nothing but
trouble for eight years, I feared my hus-
band like a viper and so did my daughter.
1 can't say what made me give my children
that stuff, except the trouble; trouble alone
caused me to do it; 1 wanted to get out. and
take them with me, for \ knew he would
kill them if I left t'hem here. I attempt-
ed this act three times -before, but
without success. My husband is at home
with their sweet dear remains now; 1 gave
•them morphine in Groves' chill tonic; I did
not fear him up to my first attempt at
poisoning them; I feared his taking my
Children from me; God knows I did not
dream of them suffering the 'horrible tor-
ture they did when I gave them that stuff;
I thought they would go riglvt off to sleep
and never wake up; I intended to take
enough to kill myself after they were -all
asleep; before I had given the last one the
dose 1 heard the groaning of the first one
J had dosed; When I had given it to the
two boys 1 called my daughter and told
her the time had come for me to die; 1
asked her if she wanted to go with me to
rest or stay with her cruel father, Whom
she feared like myself; we had talked this
over before and she asked me what I was
going to do with the babies; I told her then
for the first time that I had already given
the stuff to them and the result was sure;
she said she would enter rest with us and
she took it, saying: 'Ma, I can't stay with
him, for he would kill me.' I told 'her she
could do just as she pleased; 1 told her to
go to bed and go to sleep and we would
all go to rest; she lay down, but could
not sleep, and she got up and vom-
ited; my little boy called me and
wanted the light. I could not bear to see
him suffer and die, inch by Inch, in all of
that horrible torture, so would not let him
have if. He moaned and groaned so pite-
ously that 1 look him up in my arms and
repeated the close, I went to their beds
eight or ten times during those horrible
hours, and each time it was more horrible
than before. When my husband came
home he discovered that they had been
poisoned, but l 'old him a story, fearing
that he would kill me; but I told it all just
as soon as the officers came. 1 purchased
the stuff long ago. I told my husband
that the way he treated me would cause
our house to be haunted. On one occasion
when he abused me 1 remained in the cot-
ton field all night. He was jealous of Mr.
Strange because I wrote him a letter prom-
ising to pay him some money that I had
borrowed from him, as my husband would
give me none."
While this woman was relating her fiend-
ish story, the prison choir, composed of 150
inmates, rendered from their cell strains of
religious music calculated to melt a heart
of stone.
Mrs. Caruthers says that she is sorry
she did not kill them all and end their
troubles. She does not ask or expect clem-
ency, for she poisoned them and is glad of
it. and would do the same thing over.
During a period of consciousness to-day
the surviving daughter stated that her
mother had forced the dose down her while
her father had gone after the doctor.

HOLD-1'P AT LODI.
Robbers Go Through a Train In California
and Make a Wi> er Haul.
Sacramento, Cal., March $.—A report has
just been received, {ft 11.10 p. m., that the
Oregon train coining from San Francisco
was held up between here and Stockton.
No particulars yet.
THE PARTICULARS.
Stockton, Cal., March 9.—Full particulars
of the Lodi robbery were received here by
telephone shortly after the express train
had left here. The engine of the European
mail pulled into Lodi about 11.05 p. m.,
going very slowly, with no one aboard and
registering but forty pounds of steam.
George Andrews, the engineer of a freight
train, lying there waiting for the Overland
to pass, fcot aboard and stopped her. A
stick of dynamite was found on the seat
in the cab and it was apparent there had
been a hold-up. Lodi officers took the en-
gine of the freight train and went after
the train that belonged to the unmanned
engine. They got back to-doy with the
train at 12.15 a. m. and it proceeded north
with its own engine.
The story of the hold-up, as told by En-
gineer Ingles of the mail train, is as fol-
lows: "A short distance south of Castle
switch myself and Fireman House were
startled by a man who crawled over the
tender and pointed a pistol at our heads
and ordered us to stop the train. He was
masked. I stopped the engine, and then
we were ordered to get off, which we did.
Two other masked men were standing on
the ground waiting for us. They ordered
us to walk back to the express car, the
men telling me to instruct the messenger
to open the door, as they had dynamite
and would blow up the car if the door
was not opened. 1 told the messenger this
and he opened the door and then shut it
again after which he fired two shots at the
robbers. A passenger stuck his head out of
one of the windows and one of the robbers
fired at him. The men threatened again
to blow the car to pieces with dynamite
if it was not opened and the messenger
then complied with the request. The men
got inside, taking us with them, and ran-
sacked the car. All the money was in the
big safe, and they did not try to open it.
They got nothing whatever.
"After satisfying themselves that there
was nothing of value outside the safe, and
that being securely locked, they jumped
out of the ear and went ahead to the en-
gine again, taking us with them. Reaching
the engine the men uncoupled it from the
train, and firing some shots at the pas-
senger cars to scare their inmates. I sup-
pose. pulled the throttle and started to-
ward Lodi. A brakeman was sent back to
Stockton to flag the Oregon express, which
was soon to come along, and we waited
until the engine came from Lodi."

Weak Nerves
Indicate as surely as any physical
symptom sliowf anything, thai the or-
gans and tissues of the body are not
satined with their nourishment.
Thej' draw their sustenance from
the blood, aurl H the blood is thin, im-
pure or insufficient, they are in a state"
of revolt. Their complaints are made
to the brain, the king of the body,
through the nervous system, and the
result of the general dissatisfaction is
what we call Nervousness.
This is a concise, reasonable expla-
nation of the whole matter.
The cure for Nervousness, then, is
simple. Purify ami enrich your blood
by taking Hood's iSarsaparilia, and the
nerves, tissues and organs will have
the healthful nourishment they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness will then
give way to strength and health.
That this is not theory but fact is
proven by the voluntary statements of
thousands cured by Hood's iSarsapa-
rilla. Head the nest column.
" With pleasure I will aUte that Hood'i
Serg&pariila has helped me wonderfully.
For several months I coald not lie down to
sleep on account of heart trouble ana also
Prostration of tho Nerve*.
For three years I had been doctoring, but
could not get cured. 1 received relief tor a
while, but not permanent. Soon after be-
ginning to take Hood's Sarsaparilia there
was a change for the better. In a short
time I was feeling splendidly. I now rest-
well and am able to do work of whatever
kind. If I had not tried Hood's Sarsapa-
riUa I do not know what would have be-
come of me. I keep it in my house alt the
time, and other members ol the family
take it, and all say there is
Nothing Like Hood's
Sarsaparilla. 1 have highly recommended
it and one ot my neighbors has commenced
taking it. I '^recommend Hood's Sarsapa-
rilla at every opportunity." Mrs. 8.

Chicago, Jan. 12, 1895.—Dear Sir: We have
had several of your Morey Gas Burners in
use in our office during the past month,
and would say that they have so far proved
most satisfactory. Owing to a'change made
by the board of underwriters regarding the
taking of incandescent lights from an arc
circuit we have been compelled to remove
our incandescent lamps, and have put the
Morey Burners in their place, and in no
way regret the change. Respectfully,

Corner Dearborn and Madison Sts., Chi-
cago, Jan. 10, 1895.—Dear Sir: The ten

light, an important element in our business.

Agents of certain other eras burners stand
aghast, stating "Morey Burner consumes
15 to 20 feet of gas per hour" (and size of
flame and pdwer of illumination so ap-
pear). With the gas (that other burners
wastp in soot) 1 combine four times the
oxygen from the free air, resulting in com-
plete combustion and over three times the
illumination, from same gas. Morey Burn-
er "can do it." Therefore, it "takes the
right of way in open markets, and no part
of it requires renewal." A. G. MOREY.
Open letter to R. G. Dun & Co.:
Sirs: Your "rating" (so called) on A. O.
