baptist women mission workers.
This forenoon tho members of the Baptis
"Women Mission Workers of Texas held the
first regular session of their fourth annual
meeting at the First Presbyterian church
on Capitol street, between Main and Travis.
It was hoped that the attendance would bo
larger, but the leading spirits and zealous
members of the association were present
and manifested a most commendable inter-
est. The president, Mrs. F. B. Davis, pre-
sided, and the meeting was opened with
prayer by Mrs. J. E. Smith of Austin. Mrs.
B. S. Fitzgerald of Houston delivered the
address of welcome, giving utterance to the
•warmest feeling of christian hospitality and
■welcome. Her words were listened to with
rapt attention and evident gratification.
The response by Mrs. liufus i'igh of San
Antonio was graceful in its every sentence
and thoroughly imbued with the appreci
ative feeling entertained by tho visitors.
'Her allusions to the work in hand were
timely and highly promotivo of the interest
that should chayafjierize tjie occasion. Tho
annual address of the president, Mrs. Fan
5Te B. Davis, was an able effort, and em-
braced much valuable information on tho
condition and work of the association in
.Texas. In covering the broad scope belong-
ing to such an address her ideas were clear,
and furnished valuable points pro-
motive of the grand purpose of tho
mission society workers. In referring to
ladles' missions of Texas she gavo their
number as ninety-seven, with a steady and
most cheering growth. While reports
ehoWed a great deal of work, she stated
jthat there was a great deal not reported,
gllid she then forcibly impressed upon those
present tho benefit of reporting their work
and getting others to do so. While to many
the benefit might not be obvious at once, It
was nevertheless a real aid to the noble
cause.
The report of the corresponding secretary,
Mrs. Minnie Veal of Dallns, Was a valu,iblo
document in the matter of statistical lore,
and wns read by Mrs. Miua Everett, in the
absence of the secretary. It showed the
financial receipts and expenditures of the
society.
Tho report of the treasurer, Mrs.
Folia Bootwright of Bryan, was
read by Mrs. J. E. fimith of Austin and
pave au accurate account of tho financial
condition of the society and its manage-
ment.

through their presidents, as follows: Waxa-
bachie, Mrs. Q-racie, president; l.uling, Mrs.
J. Jj. Hardwick, president; Henrietta, Mrs.
Tjsnjar, president; Bali Antonio, Mrs. M>

pfegident; Dallas, Mrs. Carrie Cummincs,
sooretary; Houston, F. 8. Fitzgerald, Mrs

marks were made by Mrs. Figo on the des-
titution In the scope of the association com-
ing under her observation us the wife of a

This morning Mrs. Bayllss E. Harriss,
secretary of Lbe ladies' department of tbe
Dallas state fair, arrived in this city, and
came all the way here to do a good torn for
gather together an exhibit and send it to
the Dallas state fair. It is true that Hous-
ton in benefiting herself assists in making
the great success that will bo achieved at
Dallas lri the great fair which opens there
on tho 15th. Mrs. Harriss is thoroughly
enthusod, and enthuses every one elso in the
movement. The greatest success that Dal-
las has yet accomplished in fairs, she says,
will be reached in this one. After favor-
ing The News branch office with a call the
lady proceeded to call upon several ladies
of Houston, and having enlisted their in-
terest, they decided that tho woman's ex-
change of Houston, Mrs. J. t. Dickson,
president, assisted by Mrs. O. 0. Drew,
Mrs. T. H. Franklin and many other public
spirited ladies, including the members of
the exchange, would take hold of the pro-
ject and carry it through, as all of the en-
terprising cities of the state are doing.
Houston ladles can get together an exhibit
of their work that, when arranged in all of
Hs glory there, will not be surpassed by
any. Mrs. Harriss Is a successful and rapid
worker and is doing a great work for the
fair. Sbo goes hence to Galveston.

One of the delegates from Houston to tho
Topeka deep water convention was City
Secretary George R. Bringhurst. This
morning ho got back and ia full of the big
work of the convention, tho magnitude of
the trip and the greatness of that great
country. But the features that chiefly chal-
lenged his recognition atta perhaps admira-
tion were tho energetic move and conquer-
ing push that characterize the work of the
body. It was done just like young men do,
and it wns a noticeable fact that young men
were leaders in the movement, and outside
of tho work in hand and next in importance
to most of those attending was to learn
something abotit Texas. He gave it as tho
result of a systematic inquiry that at least
fifty, and many of them leading and wealthy
mefebers, of those present will explore this
section of Texas, giving especial attention
to the country along thft coast. He says
they are coming here and tltey are all hum-
mers, and Houston's business men would do
well to keep an eye open.

SEMI-ANNUAL CONFERENCE
Of the Mormon Church Begun in Salt
Lake City.
Salt Lake City, Utah, Oct. 5.—The six
teenth general semi-annual conference of
the Mormon church began yesterday. Presi-
dent Woodruff, in his opening address, said
that the Mormon church had been estab
lished by God, and that no power on earth
could stay its progress. All revelations
given to tho saints, including the one of
polygamy, came direct from God, and not-
withstanding tho trials and troublts
through which tho Mormons had passed the
Lord would sustain all those who obeyed
his principles and his revelations.
John W. Taylor commended the people to
give unquestioning obedience to the priest-
hood. "These nfeu at the head of tho
church," be suid, "have the spirit of revela
tion and speak for God. I beat my testi-
mony that President Woodruff and his
counselors are prophets, seers and reveiat-
ors. The hand of God is over his church
and no power can destroy it or impede Its
progress. I believe in implicit obedience
in temporal and spiritual things. We c.-n
not retain the spirit of God and yet be con
stantly finding fault with the priesthood.
Wo must learn not to judge men by what
we see noron the basis or the limited oppor-
tunity we have of knowing what they are
doing for the people. We should not criti-
cise the church authorities."
Others spoke in a similar vein. The
church authorities are embracing every op-
portunity to keep tho people in line politi-
cally, for they fear that with tho loss of
political power ecclesiastical supremacy
would be groatly weakened.
MORTALLY WOUNDED,
A Young Man In
flto Territory Shot by An
Officer.
Gainesville, Tex., Oct. 5. — Charley
Bowie, alias Charley Davis, was shot and
mortally wounded yesterday whilo resist-
ing arrest by Deputy United States Marshal
W. H. Terry. Deputy Marshal George Tuc-
ker had a warrant for Bowie charging him
with stealing a horso from L. L. Mason nt
Lexington, I. T., a few days ago, and on
learning that Bowie was putting up at his
father's house near Fleetwood, Chickasaw
nation, Tucker, Terry and C. L. Hart, a
posse, surrounded the house and de-
manded young Bowie to surrender,
which he refused to do, stating
that he would kill every one of the
officers if they did not leave
the premises at once. Officer Tucker then
left to get more help and informing Bowio
unless Tie surrendered when tho officers re-
turned that the house would be set on fire.
Bowio came out before Tucker had gone but
a short distance and opened flro upon the
other officers and endeavored to escape, but
fell mortally wounded by a Winchester ball
passing through his body, entering at the
right nipple. Neither of tho officers was
hurt. Bowie was only 19 years old. Officers
Terry and Tucker nrrivqd in this city to-
night en route to Paris to report the kill-
ing to the federal authorities.

vention of the Protestant Episcopal church

Dr. J. J. Baulex of Arkansas took the floor

vention was not a Catholic creed but a
Roman creed, and should not bo accepted
by the convention. Dr. Kedncy of Michigan

of the resolution.
The next speaker was Rev. Dr. Christian,
of Newarlc, N. J. He was strongly in fa-
vor of the adoption of tho resolution.

Ice and Electric Light company, with an
authorized capital of (50,000 has been or-
ganized and chartered. The officers of the

gaine case.
Cotton continues to come in in large
quantities.

turned a verdict of acquittal.
Uvalde Notes. .
Uvalde, Tex., Oct. 5.—By indomitable
energy Mr. John Erskine succeeded in
arousing and enlisting tho aid of our people
to the necessity of purchasing a site for fair
grounds. Next fall there will be a fair in
Uvalde at which competition among stock
men for the various prizes is solicited by
the manager. The movement has this ad-
vantage: It improves the stock of the
country because the people will take more
interest and pride in the class of cattle
which they raise. It has been a long-felt
want here.
There will be a tournament in Cralde
October 25.
The asylum committee risited Uvalde.
They were pleased and surprised at the
thrift of the town.
CLAN-NA-GAEL CONVENTION
Will Be Held in Chicago To-morrow—F1
of Its Kind.
Chicago, 111., Oct. 5.—The Journal says:
A Clan-na-Gael convention of about fifty
delegates from district 10, comprising the
states of Illinois and Midbican, will beheld
in this city Sunday. This convention will
bo presided over by Edward Spellman of
Peoria, the district officer. This is the first
convention of any kind in the history of the
order. It has grown out of the amalgama-
tion of the Cronin and antl-Cronin camps,
and is called for the published purpose of
tho good of the order, at that oonvention a
resolution being Introduced denouncing the
murder of Cronin, and calling for the pun-
ishment of those implicated in it. On this
it is very probable that a hard fight will be
made by the anti-Cronln faction, and it is
expected that the chairman will rule against
its admission on the ground that it is for-
eign to the business on hand.
The Cronin men will have a majority of
delegates, and it is understood that in tho
event of an adverse ruling the question will
be put before the meeting by some strong
voiced delegate and its passage declared.
Interesting developments are expected to
grow out of this oonvention, which will
have a strong bearing on the Cronin case.

Broken Out Again—Latest Exploit of the
Assassins.
Jamboree, Pike County, Ky., via Paw-
paw, W. Va., Oct. The old Hatfleld-Mc-
Coy feud has broken out again, and at least
three more live3 have been sacrificed in the
bloody vendetta, which has now lasted over
seven years. The shooting occurred at a
marriage at the farmhouse of Peter McCoy.
His daughter was to become the wife of
John Hand, a relative of the Hatfield gang,
and members of both factions had sworn to
prevent the union. Hand had never been
connected with the disputes of the factions,
ami refused to recognize the leaders. Tues-
day night the bridal party assembled in Mc-
Coy's house, and just as young Hand aud
Jliss McCoy stood before the minister a vol-
ley was poured through a window, which
killed both of them and fatally wounded
the clergyman. Reports say that the farm-
ers and mountaineers in the locality are
hunting for the murderers, but no trace of
them has been found..
ATTORNEY-GENERAL MILLER
Contradicts tlio Reported Sale of His
IXomestoad.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.—Attorney-general
Miller is very much amused over the stories
published about liim in connection with the
vacancy on the supremo bench. Speaking
of this matter to-day ho said that there was
absolutely no truth whatever in the report
that he had sold hi3 property in Indian-
apolis. .
"Tho only foundation for such a report,"
he remarked, "is that several real estate
agents were after it, but they did not got it,
as I have no desire to part with It at pres-
ent. The situation is just like that of the
young man who said that he came very
near getting married at one time, and who,
upoti being asked to explain, said: 'Well,
you see, I asked a, gitl to .harry me, and she
said, 'Excuse me,' and I, like a big fool, ex-
cused her.'"
WHITE LEAD COMPANY
Absorbed by tlie National Lead Trust in
New York.
Baltimore, Md., Oct. 5.—Tho American
announces that the Maryland White Lead
company has been absorbed by the National
Load trust, and that the stock of tho com-
pany will be turned over to the trust to-day
in Now York. The works are to be kept in
active operation. Tho Maryland White
Lead company is one of the last lead conj-
lanios in the United States to be absorbed
>y the trust, and it is probable that the Na-
tional Lead trust now controls at least
9S per cent of the corroders iu the country.

The Superior
Merit of Ayer'a Sarsaparilla overall others
Is freely testified to by thousands of grate-
ful convalescents, as well as by leading
physicians everywhere.
" I find Ayer'a Sarsaparilla one of the few
proprietary medicines that I can prescribe in my
practice."—Dr. J. L. Kitch, Cumberland, Mls3.
•' I have found great relief from general debili-
ty in tho use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. It tones
and invigorates the system, regulates the action
of the digestive and assimilative organs, and
vitalizes the blood. It is, without doubt, the
most reliable
Blood-Purifier
yet discovered."—H. D. Johnson, Jr., 383 Atlantic
ave., Brooklyn, N. Y.
W. T. McLean, Druggist, Augusta, Ohio, certi-
fies : " We have sold Ayer's Sarsaparilla here for
over thirty years and always recommend it when
asked to name the best blood-purifier."
I)r. John Hoffman, Morrisania, N. Y., writes:
" In all diseases arising from an impure and
Yltiated condition of tho blood, there is 110 relief
so prompt and sure as that afforded by Ayer's
Sarsaparilla."
James M. Williams, M. D., of Sumner, Ark.,
iays: " Ayer's Sarsaparilla, for building up the
health generally, stands at the head of tho list."
"I have used Ayer's medicines in my family
for yeara, aud always keep a bottle of
Ayer's Sar
lapsrilla In the bouse. We could not do without
It."—Mrs. E. Thrutegen, Perth Amboy, N. J.
Hade by Sr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Maa«.
Strength
And Purity are guaranteed in Ayer's Sar-
saparilla, this medicine being compounded
of the most potent diuretics and alteratives
Hence, for Blood Diseases, no other remedj
proves at once so effective and economical.
•' I havo received great benefit from the u»o ot
Ayer's Sarsaparilla, aud have no hesitation mi
doclaring it to be the best of blood purifiers."—
S. IJ. Ferdon, 143 Pearsall ave., Greenville, N. J.
" I recommend Ayer's Sarsaparilla in prefer-
ence to any other: first, because it is cheaper;
second, because J. havo more confidence iu it."
— M. Leman, Druggist, Cincinnati, Ohio.
"It is my experience that Ayer8 Sarsaparilla
has no equal as a blood-pur!tier, especially for
the cure of scrofula. We sell a large quantity
of this valuable preparation."—Wm. IJ. Snyder,
of Snyder Bros., Merchants, Roaring Creek, Pa.
"No medicine could he better adapted to
cleansing the blood of such impurities as mani-
fest themselves on tlie skin by pimples and
blotches, small ulcers, etc., than Ayer's Sarsa-
parilla. I have used it for that purpose with
the most gratifying results."—J. R. Koseberry,
Wharton, T^xas.
"We have sold Ayer's fiarBaparilla for years,
and it always gives satisfaction. Wo keep other
kinds, but find Ayer's docs more good."—Muliius .
& Sou, Gloucester, N. J.
Joseph Meyer, Jr., Druggist, ETmira, N. Y.p
certifies: " I always recouimeud Ayer'a Sar-
saparnla,
because I know it to bo the best blood-purifier
in the market."
Price $1; aix bottles $5. Worth $5 a bottle.
