Houston, Tex., June 16.—Dr. D. P. Stuart,
after his trip to Oinaha to attend the annual
meeting of the railroad surgeons of the United
States, is in excellent hoalth and spirits and
talks with marked vigor and elaborate phrase
of the time they all had. The hospitable peo-
ple of Omaha, and tho mannor in which they
mado the visit pleasant, and the kind atten-
tion of tho railroads, were his favorite themes,
touching, howover, with satisfaction upon tho
work of the convention when it came to dis-
pose of the quostion of whero they would hold
the next annual meeting.
In speaking ot tho latter ho said there woro
ovor 11500 poople in the meeting whon the
question was sprung. Now \ork city, Toledo,
San Francisco and Houston wore the princi-
pal competitors, and they woro not long in
making it known.
Whon the merits of Houston were set forth,
which was dono by tho doctor himself and
Mr. 0. W. Crawford, a former Houstonian
but now of Chicago, some patriotic doctor
from tho interior announced that tho
hotel accommodations of houston
were not adequate to the demands of such a
crowd. This fell with a dull thud on the
head of Houston's aspirations and the prflspect
looked a little durk for this section, so the
doctor and his co-worker, Mr. Crawford,
switched to Galveston and turned themselves
looso in behalf of Houston's neighbor by tho
sea. They both know that whilo it waB a fact
that Houston had large hotels they were most
always crowded with capitalists from abroad
looking for good places to put their money
and therefore there might bo some incon-
venience.
Turning to Galveston thoy presented her
rich seaside attractions, including the glorious
bathing and the beach, whore tho murmuring
soa crawled and toyed with tho toes of tho
visiting stranger.
"When this was put before them," said the
doctor, "they began to come to us and noth-
ing could check tnem. No, sir; there was not
any representative from Galveston thoro, but
we took it up, and that man Crawford is a
worker, too, and carried it through. We will
have to see to it that these people have a good
time when they come down horo.
"You know the railroads taking the mem-
bers of the convention on pleasure trips hauled
them over a thousand milos. Thoy took us
down to denver
and showed us the wonderful mountain scenery
in that vicinity and took us to the Hot springs
in an adjoining state and you can't well im-
agine what a good time we did have. We will
have to show them through this section of
Texas when they come down. The meeting
will be between April 25 and May 10, during
tho season of the strawberry, the magnolia,
the jessamine and the oleandor. These are
the things that brought the convention to Gal-
veston."
Death of Dr. B. Powell.
Dr. Belitha Powell, a physician of Houston,
is dead. He was found lifeless this morning
in his bed, having passed away with heart dis-
ease.
Belitha Powell, son of John and Mary (Mc-
Gregor) Powell, whb born in Maryland, May 3,
183a. He received a liberal acadomic education
and graduated in his literary course while yot in
his teoii6. Consequent on his life alon^ t-' . .fia
6hore. like other boys of his *«o he bec.« ?? | , y
r.»' od of « deniro to pro to •#«#,. Accordingly 7ie
shipped aboard a vessel and for a period of sovon
successive years he lived a sailor's life, visiting
various portions of tho globo and gathering infor-
mation not to be obtained from text books
or historical publications of any kind. It
was while on ship board that Be-
litha first acquired a taste for and
' began tho study ol medicino, At the end of this
sea sorvico ho began a detailed courso of medical
study, and for five years devoted his time and
attention to the acquisition of a knowlodge of
physic, during which time ho was a college stu-
dent, obtaining thereby practical illustrations of
mt'dical theorios, In 1853 he graduated at tho
Jefferson medical college of Philadelphia anci
immediately departod for north Louisiana,whore
tho yollow fevor epidemic was then raging. Horo
he remained until the opening of the hostilities in
the Into civil war,when ho entered the confodorato
service as chief surgeon of tho Fourth Louisiana
battalion. Ho served in this capacity until the
latter part of 1802, whon he was sent to tho
transMississippi department to establish
hospitals in that portion of tho confederate
army. Ho, from that time until the close of the
war. had charge of tho hospitals on the west side
of the Mississippi river. While acting in this
ca> acity ho performed nearly ovory operation
known to surgery. Aftor peace was rostorod the
doctor again returned to Louisiana and remained
one year. In 18fi6 lie came to Texas, located in
Houston and began the practice of liis profes-
sion.
I)r. Powell was married in Soptomber, 1857, to
Miss 8allie G. liarvoy, a daughter of William and
Itobocca Harvey, residents of Madison parish,
Louisiana. Five children aro now living as the
result of this union—William John, Mary M.,
ftroesbock. Nannio and Alice. Dr. Powell was a
member of tho 1. O. O. F., Knights and Ladies of
Honor, American Logion of Honor, A. O. U. W,
and Chosen Frionds-
Of the children, tho second, Mary, is now
Mrs. Sidney ltockoll and lives at Fort Worth,
and tho fourth, Nannie, is now Mrs. E. A.
Flewollon and is living at tho family home.
John Powell is now in Little Rock, and with
Mrs, Hockell has boen notified by wire of the
sad occurrence, and will come to the funeral,
whioh will not take place until Sunday morn-
ing.
Dr. Powell was one of tho few men able to
oonvince those closest to him that ho had no
fear of death. To several of thoso frionds he
has said in tho recent past that he was fast
approaching death's door and the sooner ho
got there, so far as he was personally con-
cerned, tho sooner would como the relief. Ho
told them his heart was "fast going to pieces."
Tho doctor was genorous, brave, honorable
and charitable.
Equalizing the Asiiegaments.
The commissioners' court as a board of
equalization aro considering the valuations of
property this week, and while they have ex-
amined a good many assessments, compara-
tively fow have been changed. The property
of T. W. House was raisod from $00,000 to
$100,000, and the assessment in the county of
the International and Groat Northern railway
company was increused $70,000. This was on
property that the compauy owned in the city
not attachod to tho railroad and heretofore
ovorlooked in Bomo way. Most of tho prop-
erty is situated on the north side of tho bayou.
The commissioners orderod the clerk to no-
tify the following porsons to appear in court
on tho dates namod: E. L. Dennis, June 10;
Hy Huffman, June 21; Hy Mychol and Fritz
Mueschko, on tho 20th. Others will bo noti-
tifiod us their namos aro reached.
Tlio Exposition Committee.
The committee on location of tho proposed
exposition grounds had a mooting this after-
noon at the cotton exchange. The committee
is composed of Mossrs. W. B. Chow, F. L.
Dana, W. A. Childress, William Christian and
G. B. Hengon.
They had beforo them four propositions
moro or less favorable for the location of tho
exposition. Tho ono, howovor, whioh soomod
to meet with the favor of thocommitteo camo
from the Magnolia park compauy. Tho latter
proposes to sell the park property, embracing
100 acres of land and $10,000 in improvements,
for $20,000, half of the amount to bo taken in
association stock and tho balanco in money,
to bo paid in fivo years' time, tho Magnolia
park company to havo the option of taking it
all in stock if they want to.
Thoy further propose to give a bonus in the
way of an option on 1000 iota of Magnolia Dark
property outside of the 100 acres at $50 per lot
for a term of three years, to be paid for as the
lots aro sold. Tho proposition further pro-
vides that all purchasers of these lots who re-
side thereon shall bo given free transportation
for two yoars, which includes all members of
said purchasers' families, all building mate-
rial and all family necessaries, such as gro-
ceries and the like, that havo to be trans-
ported out tliore. It is further proposed to
make the rate on the Magnolia Park railway
15 cents for tho round trip to and from the
park, 5 cents of this to go to tho association.
Tho proposition was takon under considera-
tion, but it is undorstood that it is practically
accepted by the committee, contingent on $10,-
000 more stock in the association being sub-
scribed. After this amount is raisod it is un-
dorstood that the books wiil bo cloaod and no
moro stock sold.

The Capture of Santa Anna.
Some time ago a nephew of Mr. Loon Blum,
who resides in New York city, asked his unolo
to suggest a subject for a painting. Mr, Blum
sent him a photograph of the painting of the
capture of Santa Anna in tho capitol at Aus-
tin. Tho lad, by tho way, Is 17 years old.
Mr. Blum has recoived tho painting from
his nephew.
This work is a romarkable production. The
details are worked out with wonderful pre-
cision. The features of tho thirty-fivo or
thirty-six Texas heroes when compared with
the photograph from whioh the painting was
made, are exceedingly true to copy. The col-
ors are good and tho attention paid to the cor-
rectness of the dross of the soldiers ij notice-
able. The uniform of Santa Anna ia auid to
bo afaoBimileof thatinthe painting at Austin.
The exproaaion on the face of Doaf Smith, who
aits at tho foot of the ouk beneath which Sam
Houaton liea, is that of a man endeavoring to
grasp every word Bpokeu,
This painting was seen by many people yoa-
terday and tho eonaonaua of opinion ia that it ia
a remarkably creditable production.

STRANGER THAN FICTION.
THE CASE OF PETER MEGGS AND
MIKE FERRY.
Meggs Convicted of Murder, Received a Life
Sentence—Ferry, the Murdered Man,
Is Doing x'ime in Huntsviilo.
For genuinely unique ovoi; s Texas 'eads tho
world. The latost surprise grows out of a con-
viction for murder, and has no parallel in any
court of record in tho world—at least uo men
tion of a similar state of affairs has been
found.
In December, 1892, Poter Moggs waa tried
for tho murder of Mike Ferry. The trial oc-
curred in Grimes county. On December 9
Moggs wus convicted of murder on circum-
stantial evidence, and on December 2 he was
sentenced to imprisonment for life. He is
now sorving Mb sentence in Hqntsville.
A short time ago Mike Forry, the supposed-
to-have-beon murdered man, was convicted of
felony in western Texas; he is doing time in
Huntsviilo. Meggs, tho man convietod of tho
murder of Ferry, and Ferry, the man whom
Meggs was convicted of murdering, are both
serving their sentoncos 111 the same prison and
see each other frequently.
ThiB situation is unique. Thoro have boon
many cases whore a supposed murdered man
has turned up in time to save the neck of a
m.in convicted of murdering him, but in this
casu the matter is different. Forry is a con-
vict ; was convicted of a folony; he can not
testify in court; I10 cannot idontify himself.
So far aa Mike Forry is concerned Mike Ferry
is a murdered man. So far as Peter Moggs is
concerned Potor Meggs is in tho oyea of the
law a murderer. Anci under tho law the man
whom he (Mogga) was conviated of murder-
ing can not go into court and swoar that
Moggs did not murder him. Ferry can not
prove that ho isn't dead, oven if he is a very
much alive man. And tho stato is
SUPPORTING A LEGAL CORPSE,
and whoover heard of a corps 1 eating d .nk-
ing and wearing out clothing? There is a
novel in that story.
Mr. Walter L. Wilaon has b9en retainod to
procure a pardon for Meggs—3 pardon for a
enmo that Meggs never committed. In re-
ferring to this ca«e Mr. Wilfion said:
"I am endearing to got a pardon for
Moggs. Horo is a man who is serving a life
sentence for a crime that he never committed.
Alongside him is tho man who was Bupposed
to havo been murdered, convicted of a felony,
and theroby debarred from going into court
and testifying that ho was not murdered.
"The conviction of Meggs was purely on
circumstantial evidence.
"A writ of habeos corpus ad testificandum
would ljo wore Ferry a witness and in custody
to have profert made of hiin in court. But
Ferry, boing a convict, can not identify him-
self. The only way for mo to proceed in tho
matter is to have witnesses go to Huntsville
and identify Ferry as tho Ferry who disap-
peared from Grimes county. And I can see
no reason why Moggs shall not bo roloasod at
an oarly date."
"Well, Mr. Wilson," Hsked tho reporter,
"has Moggs any remody for redress in case of
his release?"
"On tho theory that the state can do no
wrong, no ono can maintain a suit against the
Btate except by permission of the legislature."
Christian Endeavor Sooiety.
Tho young people's society of I. hriatian
Endeavor gave an entertainment in the par-

for tho oecaaion und occupied the front end.
Miss Do Berry rendered a piano solo and Miss
Sarnh Laeil gave a rocitation. Those wore
followed by tho most Important part of thopro-
grammo, the beautiful cantata entitlod "Lit-
tlo Gypay," rendered by about twenty chil-
dren. Little Daiay hn^l the leading part, but
all the children acquitted themselves with
credit. Thia pieoe ia a sweot little story of
tho life ard rescue of two gypsy children, and
was not wanting in striking songs and apt ro-
marka.
