THE GALVESTON DAILY NEWS. SUNDAY, MAY 28. 1R93.
ABOUT THE GERMAN
IMPOSSIBLE TO SAY WHAT TflE FATE
OF THE BILL WILL BE.
All the Political Parties Very Much Mixed
Over the Measure-Other Foreign
News of General Interest.
Bem-in, May 27.—The electoral outlook has
considerably cleared since the issue by Dr.
Liebcr of the manifesto of the center or Cath-
olic party. The labored phraseology of the
manifesto and its long-winded sentonces were
not calculated to impress the public and hava
clicited just ridicule from the press. But the
declaration did not fail to inform the gov-
ernment of the prico it must pay
for the support of the party in the
now reichstag. Behind verbiage about the
intolerable military burdens imposed by the
ompiro and advice to the electors to take a
decided position against the army bill and the
Huono amendment to that measure thero
lies tho dout des principal. "Wo shall trans-
fer," says Dr. Leibor, "the Windthorst reso-
lutions to the new parliament and U60 them
as our guiding iight in the discus-
sion of nil military questions in the fu-
ture." Tho party intent is most evident in
the passage referring to popular suffrage and
the rights of federal states. The reactionary
conservative organs throaton that if the now
reichstag is in trouble the government will
restrict the franchise and thus get an obedient
parliament. Tho manifesto in response to
this threat doclares that tho highest law is tho
constitution, adding: "We hold fast to the
character of tho empire as a fodorai state.
Tho prerogatives of tho people are based
upon universal, oqual, direct and secret suf-
frage."
To some of the aristocrats Bigning tho mani-
festo this language is foreign. Like puppets
In Lieber's hands they seem to have assented
to tho declaration without pondering upon
■what it involved. Therefore, sinco Barou
von Schorlomeralst took tho initiative in sup-
plying a manifesto more taking to their aristo-
cratic tendencies sovcral of iliom, including
Herr Kreissinge, propose to join the von
Schorlomeralst section. This will lead to a
disruption of tho center party in Bavaria evon
worse than tho broak up of tho party in Prus-
sia. ..
Another factor causing panic among the
centrists is the independent action of tne peas-
ants' societies, which have heretofore always
supported the centrist candidates. Theso so-
cieties have now issued an doctoral address,
stating that their representatives have up to
this time been co-operating in leg-
islation ruinous to tho peasant pro-
prietors and paying altogether too much
nssidious attention to religious questions.
"In the coming election," the manifesto adds,
"peasants' societies will support only candi-
dates dovoted to agricultural interests of tho
country and who are reliable as citizens,
without regard to religious belief or social po-
sition."
The social democratic party will turn tho
disruption of tho centrists to bost account.
Herr Singer took the field to-day and will
stump Rhenish Prussia and Westhalia. He
announces that ho will speak on the action of
the reichstag with special roforenoo to the at-
titude of tho center party.
Obviously trustworthy data on which to base
prediction of the final result of tho election
continue wanting. Opposition papers and or-
gans of Herr Hicliter's faction of the freisin-
nige party count upon a majority of 40 to GO
hostile to the government.
Von Caprivi's organs assert that the con-
servatives moderato faction of tho fressmnigo
party and centrists nre supporting the army
bill and that the government is daily gaining
ground. It is genorally admitted the national
liberals except in Silesia nro vanishing as a
political force and that the socialists are
everywhere gaining. Another week ought to
allow a clear estimate as to ultimate position
of several parties.
Kulturumpff, in Hungary, according to the
Germania, is tending toward a settlement, tho
pope offering to assent to a form of civil mar-
riage consisting of the presence of u civil reg-
istrar at tho church nuptial ceremony, with
subsequent registration of tha marriage.
Other advices from Hungary show that tho
cabinet is not willing to accept this compro-
mise, if such it may bo termed, as a majority
of the Hungarian diet wants full liberty of
civil marriage.
Throughout North Germany, Austria, Hun-
gary and Bulgaria, sufficient rains have fallen
to insure good harvest.
Etnln Paslia stain.
Bbubselb, May 27.—A lettor received from
Rascid Ben Mohammed by tho governor of
Stanley Falls leaves little doubt that Emm
Pasha, tho noted explorer is dead. Tho letter
Bays that an Emrah chief named Bin Abed,
in journeying toward Unyoro and Wado-
lai, met Euiin Pasha and his expedition
in a hostile manner. A severe battle ensued
and the fighting lastod for three days. Emin
Pasha and his followers wore dofeatod and
took to flight. Said Bin Abed and his vic-
torious followers overtook Emin and captured
and killed him together with all his people.

Rangoon, May 27.—A cyclone has been

the disturbance now is in Diamond harbor,
from which the British bark Rydalmere van-
ished suddenly yesterday.
A Medieiil Inspector.
Hamburg, May 27.—The United States gov-
ernment has stationed a physician at this
port to inspect vessels sailing for American
portB and verify bills of health.
LaQrange Reported.
LaGbange, Tex., May 27.—The grand jury
adjourned aftor a session of twelve days. They
returned 40 indictments, of which 29 were for
felonies and 11 for misdemeanors. They made
a lengthy report, specially commending tho
condition of the finances of the county, which a
committee appointed by the grand jury found
satisfactory. On the poorfann they found an
Inmate who is drawing a quarterly pension

reoommended that ho be removed and that,
necessary the gonoral government take him to

A Heavy Storm in Arkansas.
Helena, Ark., May 27.—There has been
decline of two inches in the river at this place
in the past twenty-four hours.
At 10 o'clock last night a heavy rain set in,
attended by heavy winds and lightning. This
increased this morning to a regular galo. It
rtined until 10 to-night, the total rainfall be
ing 6.02 inches, which is the heaviest rain
since 1877. There was a break in the
roadbed of the Sb. Lonie, Iron Mouutain
and Southern railway just south of tho city
and the evening train was compelled to come
in ovor the tracks of the Arkansas Midland
railway. Tho levee just north of this city
and which protects tho suburb known as
North Helena, was held last night with groat
difficulty, and it is feared it will yet. broak
No word has boen received from the weet ovor

tent aud think trains may bo run from Mem-
phis to Little Rock in a few days.
Showing How Much Easier It Is to Do
than to Undo.
The supreme court has again decided what
known as the hat trimmings case against
the government. This controversy, which has
just been settled finaUy, arose under the tariff
act of 1883, which provided that materials for
hats, such as laces, trimmings, etc, should
pay a duty of 20 per cent. The importers
claimed that ccrtain silk and velvet goods im-
ported, as they asserted, to bo used for trim-
ing hats, should be admitted for the 20 per
cent duty. The custom house officials in-
sisted that they should be regarded as silk and
velvet fabrics und pay a duty of 50 per cont.
The treasury department sustained its subor-
dinates and tho importers appealed to the
courts. In the fall of l<i89 the supreme court
decided adversely to tho government,which as
a consequence was called on in a great many
capes to pay the difference between 20 and 50
per cont. Estimates as to the amount of the
refund vary. Tho late Secretary Foster esti-
mated once that it was about $25,000,000. The
lowest estimate is $8,000,000. Whatever the
amount may be, it will be that much clear
gain for the importers who paid the excess of
duty under protest and collected it from those
to whom they sold the goods. Since 1889
about $2,000,000 have been paid back. Last
February tho treasury department, which did
not have much spare cash, suspended tho pay-
ment of refunds and the question was taken
before tho supreme court again, in tho hope,
perhaps, that as its composition had changed
materially sinco 1889, it might arrive at a dif-
ferent conclusion. It did not, and the treasu-
ry is stuck for a heavy sum. This should bo
a'warning to make tariff acts a little more
definite, so that thero may bo no room for
controversies such as this ono or that ovor tho
duty on worsteds. These disputes are not set-
tled for yoars. In the meanwhile tho importer
pays his duties but collects them from his cus-
tomers. When tho government refunds them
to him they remain in his pocket. The pro-
cess of restitution stops right thore.
SHERIFFS' DEPARTMENT.
A Ranger's Reoollections—A Cyolone In
bhackleford County.
Utopia, Tex., May 23.—To Th» News; I
havo beon a vory interested roader of "Early
Times in Toxas," by John W. Lockhart.
Tho namo of Lockhart is very familiar in
western Texas. During tho siege of tho Ala-
mo a man of that name and an undo of mine
wore sent out by Colonel Travis to collect
some beove» for tho men, and while ongaged
in this the Alamo was ta'uen and they escaped
on that account.
In hi9 last communication Mr. Lockhart
montions tho Tonkawa) tribe of Indians and
their chief, Placido, aud says he does not know
what became of them. While a ranger, in
1870,1 siw thom at Fort Gnflin, but I think
when that post was abandouod by tho milita-
ry, aftor Indian depredations ceased, thoy
were moved to the Indian territory. When I
saw them they were reduced to a mere hand-
ful, on account of their bloody battles with
tho Comanches. On one occasion tho Co-
manchos proposed to mako a treaty with them,
whoreby the Tonkaways would be allowed to
hunt buffalo in tho Clear and Double moun-
tain forks of the Brazos, then tho hunting
ground of the Comunchos. For this purpose
both tribes wore to meet at old Fort. Cobb,
but the Comanches (Snake in tho grass) am-
bushed them on a little crook, uine miles
from tho fort, and almost exterminated them.
In this battle old Placido was killed and a
young chief named Castool led tho remnant
back and was head chiuf when wo saw them.
We remained several days noar their village
and convorsed with thom a good deal, and
this was tho tale they told us.
While we wore scouting near Fort Cobb
tho bones of the siauglitored Tonks could
still bo seen* Their war chief at tho timo
we saw them was called "Big Nose Johnson."
He was aline specimen of physical manhood,
about G feotG inches, vory straight and weigh-
ing about 250 pounds. They had such names
among them as Hays, Burleson, Texas, Jesse,
Johnson, otc. I Raw ono who said ho was 11(5
yoars of ago, and thut ho was present at the
battle of New Orleans. To prove this to us
ho produced a worn and faded instrument of
writing which we couid scarcely read, but
which seemed to bo signed by several officers
of Jackson's army, certify ing to tho statement
that be was in tho battle.
Ihe chief Flaceo, to which Mr. Lockhart
refers,perished for water on the Staked Plains,
while on a beaver hunt.
As my mind runs back to that country
around tho Clear fork, Hubbard's and Battle
creeks, and in connection with tho late dis-
aster at Cisco, I recall the fact that it was
then the battle grouud of tho olemonts. It
was in Shackloford county, about wost, I
think, from where Cisco now is, where the
rangers were blown away by a cyclono in
1871. Well do I remember that fearful night.
A scout of us wero encamped in a pecan
grove when it struck us, and can hardly be de-
scribed, the fearful roar and crash of timbers,
terror stricken hordes plunging and tearing
looso from thoir iastoniugs arid dashing olf
wildly across the prairie, rangers tumbling,
whirling and clutching at the tall grass as they
were carried out (fortunately) into the prai-
rie, thoir loudest calls to one another being
drowned by the roar and crash around them—
pitch dark, except when the willd scone was
momentarily lit up by vivid streaks of light-
ning—hats, blankets, saddles, carbines and
horses scattered every where, but all lived to
tell tho tale. A. J. Sowell.

"Milchrist's suspicious delay and exeusos
for inaction for fifteen days after the official

the gatos closed until one is obtained. Sun-
day closing is tho law of tho land until tho
foderal courts decides otherwise. Shall
the national law be nullified in the mean-
while?"

jury system of awards at the Chicago world's
fair for Mr. Thatcher's plan wiU bo regarded
with the utmost suspicion and repugnance by
foreign exhibitors. It would bo innocenco
closely approaching fatuity to imngino that
the political and municipal precedents of the
conduct of American affairs will bo wholly
ignored by tho experts whom Mr. Thatcher
proposes to send wandering about tho fair in
order to report to tho Chinose sounding
bureau of awards. Unless tho poor attend-
ance at tho fair be mcroasod by a European
invasion there is a melancholy reason to fear
tho failure of tho fair will be as colossal as its
inception.
Tho Injunction Filed.
Chicago, 111., May 27.—The expected bill
for an injunction to prevent Sunday opening
of tho world's fair was filed to-day in behalf
of tho government by United States District
Attorney Milchrist in the federal circuit
court. The district attorney doos not ask for
a temporary injunction and the enso will not
bo argued until next weok. Milchrist pre-
ferred to wait until Chief Justice Fuller
arrives in the city. Tho chief justice will
probably hear the caae with two judges of tho
circuit court. Whatcvor the filial outcome,
the bill will havo no effect on tho initial open-
ing to-morrow.
A REMARKABLE REUNION.
A Phantom Terrorlzas the Residents of an
English .Parsonage.
Pall Mall Gazette.
To look at No. 27 St. Ooorgo's road, Kilburn,
ono would not suspect it of being haunted.
There is nothing of tho tumble down, ivy cov-
ered ruin about it which tho Christmas num-
bers havo taught tho world to associate with
ghosts. It is a solid, substantial, comfortable
looking houso, standing in about the middle
of a rather imposing torruce, with a small
garden, containing a few bushes in the front
nnd a largor grass plot at the back. It is not
by any moans a new house, but it has so fow
marks of ago about it that a solf respecting
ghost would hardly have boon expoctod to re-
gard it as an eligible residence. Yet thero aro
people dwelling in tho house who confidently
assort that they havo each on soparate occa-
sions beon tho eye witnesses of a remarkable
apparition in the house.
Tho liev. G. S. Tylor. the minister at pres-
ent attached to tho Quox road VVesleyan Meth-
odist church, and his family, who aro the oyo
witnesses of tho ghost, havo told a reporter
about it. The house has for many years now
boon tho dwolling place of the various minis-
tors who havo succeeded each other every
throe years at the Quex road chapel. Mr.Tyler
and his family havo lived there now for eight-
eon months. "I havo never seen tho appari-
tion myself,"said Mr. Tyler,"and hive always
beon a confirmed unbeliever in spirit manifes-
tations, and so on. But the fact remains, ex-
plain it how you will, that my wile and my
daughters, Ada and Julio, aged respectively 20
aud 19 years, havo distinctly seen a mysterious
something which, in tho absonco of any better
way of describing it, wo have called an appa-
rition. They agree closely in their description
of the figure.
It is that of a person attired as a Wosleyan
minister might be, in black clothes of a cleri-
cal cut. It is a figure of average staturo, with
long gray beard and keen, peculiar eyes. It
was my younger daughter who first mot
ith the apparition. She will toll you in her
own wav." Miss Julio Tylor then took up tho
story. "I was standing at the coruor of tho
stairs," sho said,"and 1 saw what I took to bo
pa. I had gono to call him to tea, und when I
called him he neither answered nor moved. I
thought he was playing with me and giving
mo the trouble to go up to him, and I ran up
to push him. I pushed right through the figure
and fell up against tho wall. 1 was dreadfully
frightened, but when I told tho others thoy
laughed at mo. But then Ada, later on, saw
tho samo figure, and then mother herself."
Miss Ada then related hor first experience
of the uncanny visitor. She was alono in the
house with a child ono Sunday evening and
saw the figuro in the doorway. She thought a
m an had broken into the house at first until
she observed the clerical cut of tho figuro's
gnrb, and then recalled hor sister's experience.
Mrs. Tyler's statement was that while pass-
ing by tho small room at tho ond of the pass-
ago ono evening she saw Mr. Tyler standing in
there, as she thought. She ran upstairs to tho
study and there found the actual Mr. Tylef in
the ilesh. It is in this room at the end of tho
passage, indeed,where the apparition has boen
most frequently seen, and the iadios of the
household do not care to venture noar it
alone. It is a small room looking out on the
backvgardon, but with wooden shutters, which
are fastened over tho glass in tho evening. "It
was in that room," said Miss Julie, "that I
met tho figuro face to face. I shall nover for-
get his oyos—grayish bluo in color—and they
seemed to look through me quite hungrily."

A Poor Mother and Her Wealthy Texas
Son Meet After Thirty Years.
St. Louis Globo-Democrat.
A singular reunion of a mother and son
took placo on Wodnosday morning at tho
union depot. The interested parties are Mrs,
George W. Sylvester of Modora, Mo., and An-
drew Sylvester, a prosperous cotton raiBer of
Texas. About 8 o'clock on that morning a
rather tall, gray haired old lady could bo seen
walking impatiently up and down the plat-
form. When tho Iron Mountain train ar
rived thero alighted therefrom a tall, slim
built man, with dark, curly hair and gray
eyes. Ho was about 45 years old. A large
diamond flashed in his shirt front, and other
articles of dress betokened hia wealth. A glance
up and down the platform and he espied the
old lady. There was rush and the two em-
braced each other.
"Mother!" cried the man.
"My boyl my boyl" echoed the mother,
and toars of joy trickled down her cheeks. The
man could not withhold tears that flowed
down his cheeks. A crowd gathered, but this
did not disturb the affecting bccuo.
In over thirty years the pair had not seen
each other. YearB ago the happy family lived
at Bowling Green, Ky. Andrew was then a
more boy and went south to visit his uncle at
Atlanta, Ga. Ho toiled hard on a farm and
developed into a muscular youth. While on
his visit the war broke out and young Andrew
was seized with a desire to onlist in tho con.
federate cause. His parents wore unionists,
but his undo was a southern sympathizer.
The first two years of tho war passed and in
the beginning of tho third Andrew enlisted,
though only 15 years oid. He fought in many
battles and earned tho sobriquet of "Fearless
Andy," a name which clung to him to the last.
In his la^t bat.tlo a report gained currency
that "fearless Andy" had boen killed. The
sad iiowb was carried to the parents and sisters.
His body was never recovered, but a tree was
planted to keep his memory ever green. The
father consoled himself with the thought that
his boy died liko a soldier. A short t lme aftor
tho father became sick and died. He
loft but a small estate, and this was converted
into money and the family moved west, lo-
cating in Kansas. Later the daughters mar-
ried and Mrs. Sylvester locatod in Modora,
whero she has lived ever since. Aftor tho war
Andrew, yet a very lively corpse, returned to
hia old home in Bowling Groou. Ho found
that his parents had movod, but no ono could
toll him where. The news of his father's
death affected him greatly. He returned
south and ongagod in raising cotton. From
small plantation ho accumulated money, and
finally owned one of tho largest cotton farms
in tho Lono Star state. Day after day he
continued to hunt for his family. Every bit
of information was investigated, only to
prove valueless.
A fow weeks ago ho was informed that Mrs.
Sylvester was living at Medora, Mo. Ho wrote
there and was overjoyed to receive a letter
from his long separated mother. One letter
followed another, and it was agreed that if
Andrew's mother would meet him at tho St.
Louis union depot ho would take her to his
southern homo and provide her with every
comfort tho rost of her declining days. Tho
agreement was carried out with the afore-
montioned result.

some encouragement will bo given the pro-

It is urged that such a line would bo of
invaluable benefit to the two terminal cities.

SUNDAY CLOSING CBUgADB.
The Sunday closing situation In San Anto-
nio is assumingan interesting phase. The so-
called law and order committee of twenty-flve
are keeping up their end of the fight in good
style and announce that thoy "will fight it
out if it takes all summer." Although they
have beon hard ut work it can not be said that
they have acuomplished anything of material
importance. Tho saloons have continued to
keep opon on Sundays as always horetoforo
and there are no signs of them obeying the
mandates of the committee of twonty-flve un-
less forced to do so.
The sontiment of the general public is so
universally opposed to tho crusade that it
seems impossible te secure a conviction in tho
courts here of alleged offenders. There have
been two cases of alleged violation of the
Sunday law tried one of which resulted in a
hung jury and the other in an acquittal.
Tho committee has during the past few days
changed its tactics, and has filed suits to re-
move Sheriff Campbell and City Marshal
Druso from office 011 the ground that they
have failed and refuso to enforce the law.
The trial of these cases is set for May 31.
Hypoorisy of Mourning.
Exchange.
Of all the incongruities of' daily lifs tha
woman with the happy, smiling face and gown
heavily trimmod'with crape is the most notice-
able. Every day ono sees on the stroet, in tho
theaters and sometimes in a ball room peopia
who wear the habiliments of woe and whoso
actions are ontireiy out of keeping with their
attire.
The wearing of mourning is, of course, a
matter of custom, and to the sensitive woman
such attire affords a protection from many re-
marks that would otherwise wound most deep-
ly ; to such it would mean a real sacrilege to
wear the bright colors that were once typical
of their own bright feelings, but many others,
Biin ply became they are slaves to a custom,
will shroud tliemsolvos in crapo and bomba-
zine and havo not the slightost change in their
feelings. ^ ,, ,
It is no fancy picture wlion we tell of gay
little parties attended by those wearing deep
mourning, who are perfectly willing to enter
into evory form of enjoyment if the matter is
only kept quiot. Hypocrites abound in this
w rl I, but thero are many inoro clothed in
buIjio gaments than of any other type. Mourn-
ing is very exuensive and often costs a family
more than they can woll afford, yot it iB worn
by rich and poor aliko, though they may not
at heart feel the least bit inclined to do so. In-
vitations r.re refused because tho parties re-
ceiving them aro in mourning, but in many
cases the refusal will be accompanied by feel-
ings of regret that they onu not go; the heart
longs for the gayoties, but their droas prevents
them from indulging.
Of what use then is it to merely assumo tho
outward appoaranco of grief when in reality it
has no abiding place with us? It is a sham,
and the sooner it is dono away with the bettor.
Fashion and custom, mighty dictators of tha
feminine world, are responsible for many
deceits, but the grossest of all the sins com-
mitted in their name is the hypocrisy of
mourning.

of Lawrence, Mass.
Her Parents were in Despair
But She Was Brought Into Healthy
Girlhood by
HOOD'S
Sarsaparilla
Mr. Edward Hilbert, of 183 Broadway,
Lawrence, Mass., sends us the following:
" Ten years ago our child was born. Hav-
ing lost six children we were naturally
anxious as to the health of this one. What
was our dismay and sorrow to find that she
was apparently doomed to the samo fate as
the others. She had little strength as a baby,
and did not Improve as she grew older. When
about 2 1-2 years old sho began to hava
Fainting Spells,
dropping wherever she happened to be. At
these times she would turn black and ap-
peared at the point of death. Doctors told
us she was In a very bad way from
Heart Trouble
Nothing that we gave her did any good until,
in ulter desperation, we began giving hor
Hood's Sarsaparilla. She gradually began to
improve, the tainting flts became less and
less frequent and finally ceased entirely.
Her general health improved until at the end
of a year, having taken seven bottles, we
stopped giving it to her. At this time she
was 4 years old, and, although anxious lest
the troubles might return, we ceased to
worry, she seemed so well. She is now 10
years old and Is as
Healthy and Rugged
a child as you will And anywhere and has
never shown any indication of a return of
the heart difficulty. During the past 0 veari
perhaps she has taken 3 bottles in all, w#
only giving It to her irregularly at times when
she has complained of feeling tired in the
spring and early summer. We fuel that we
Owe a great deal to
Hood's Sarsaparilla
and cannot say too much In favor of it." Ed-
wabd Hilbert, Lawrence, Mass.
