Houston, Tex., July 22—In the suit for
divorce recently filed in the district court
styled Annie Floeck vs. G. W. Floeck,
the chief grounds for action are shown
below. There are others, but the main
facts are contained herein, the ones of
minor importance being left out.
The petitioner alleges that on July 12,
1893, she was compelled to leave the bed
and board of defendant on account of
outrageous excesses and cruel treatment of
plaintiff. Plaintiff further alleges that
on the — day of March, 1893, at the home
of plaintiff and defendant, the defendant,
after the hour of midnight and upon en-
tcrlnfcthe house, began to curse and abuse
plaintiff and threatened to kill her, draw-
ing on and pointing at plaintiff a shotgun
in an angry and threatening manner, say-
ing he would shoot plaintiff and then
drove the plaintiff, at the point of said gun,
out of the house and into the yard and
street, where the plaintiff, with her child,
remained until assistance could be had to
cause defendant to desist.
Plaintiff further represents that in the
presence of others, said of and charged the
plaintiff with having committed adultery
with various parties, some of whom de-
fendant named, and that defendant had a
watch on plaintiff and said that he could
prove by those who had watched plaintiff
that she was in the habit of going out of
nights to meet men, meaning thereby that
plaintiff was unfaithful to her marriage
vows.
The case will come up for trial at the
next term of court.

MAY BE CHOSEN.
Rev. C. M. Beckwlth, formerly rector of
Christ Episcopal church of this city, is
now at the university of the South Se.
wanee, Tenn., and It Is reported here that
he Is likely to be chosen to one of the
high official positions of that institute,
perhaps vice chancellor, or one near it.
The death of Rt. Rev. Alexander Gregg,
chancellor, and the Illness or bad health
of Rt. Rev. Bishop Qulntard of Tennessee,
vice chancellor, have created vacancies
that will cause an advance of the ulli
cers under them.
It is thus that the vacancy will be
created.
Rev. Mr. Beckwlth was for several years
rector of Christ church and at one time
filled the chair of a professor in the uni-
yereity ot the South.

A writ of attachment against Peter
Clyna to satisfy a judgment of Phoenix

erty seized being ten acres out of the Jo-
slah T. Harrall headlight survey, situated

SINGLE TAX ORGAN.
Houston, Tex., July 18.—To the single
tax men of Houston and the friends of the
cause generally tnroughout the state—Gen-
tlemen: I have been enabled during the
past three or four years, more because I
love the single tax Idea than for any other
reason, to render some service on behalf
of It which you have accepted and kindly
spoke of.
I am anxious that this appreciation of
willing service done and to be done should
find expression In a suitable memorial
which would stand for years as an ex-
position and teacher of our purest and best
dean. As minister of the North Side Christ-
ian church ill this city I am now engaged
In building a house for the accommodation
of the large congregation now gathered
and which I believe I can hold together,
and I want you single tax men to purchase
for me, for us, a memorial organ which
shall be suitably Inscribed and remain a
fitting evidence of the harmony of our
teaching.
There are two single tax preachers in
this city, my brother, Rev. J. C. Mason
of Capitol Avenue Christian church, and
myselt, and as far as I know there are no
jreacheia against It, but some more than
avorably disposed toward it.
We will raise the money to buy the lot
and build the house among ourselves. The
pulpit will be provided for by friends
abroad an(J the Bible Is promised, but I
desire and am sure will obtain a single
tax organ.
All contributions sent to me at Houston
will be suitably and properly acknowledged.
Yours faithfully, E. W. BROWN.
Minister North Side Christian Church.

HAMBLEN'S VIEWS.
This afternoon a News man cam* across
Hon. W. P. Hamblen and the conversation
drifted to politics and the silver question.
The gentleman In reply to a question, said:
"Yes, I read The News all the time and
my conclusions are that Hon. Jno. H. Rea-
gan is playing to become the nominee of
the third party for governor. I see it In
everything he has lately written. The
place he has now may be a good paying
one. but It is not conspicuous enough for
Judge Reagan. You see by his paternalistic
ideas that he wants to get in the third
party. He is anxious to put his name to a
lot of laws and he don't see any chance
except through the third party. His views
have placed him already outside of the
democratic party and he knows it. He
wants to get Into a position where he can
be officious. I make it as a prediction
that Judge Reagan will try to get the
nomination for governor at the hands of
the third party.
YOUNG PEOPLE'S DRAMATIC CLUB.
The next attraction by the Young Peo-
ple's Dramatlo club will be a double bill,

The former well known one act Irish com-
edy Is one of the most laughable of the
kind ever presented and the cast giving It
on this occasion is a strong one, while
the latter piece Is guaranteed to keep the
audience in laughter from beginning to end.
In addition to the above, the entertain-
ment will be Interspersed with 'many spec-
ialties by well known local amateurs, who
have kindly volunteered their services.
The pavilion in which this club gives
their entertainments is the most cool and
comfortable place In the city to spend a
summer's evening, and this, together with
the excellent programme arranged, will
no doubt attract a large crowd.

IEBY PULLED A KHIFE AND WENT
FOE SHLLL
Senator Irby Objected to Congressman Shell'a
Indorsement of the Oraddock Letter.
Sensational Developments Expected.
New Orleans, July 22.—A morning paper's
Columbia, South Carolina, special says:
Meager news comes from Laurens con-
cerning the fight said to have taken place
about six miles from there several days
ago between United States Senator Irby
and Congressman Shell.
The report is that J. D. Shaw, a boon
companion of Irby, sent for Shell to come
to his house In the country, saying that
he was In trouble and wanted Shell, as an
old friend, to help him. After Shell ar-
rived there, Irby came up and inquired who
was there. „ ,
On being told that Shell was there, Irby
drew a knife and went In after him. Irby
asked Shell if he Indorsed the Craddock
letter written several weeks ago to the
Augusta Chronicle, on which Adjutant Gen-
eral Farley based his attack on him (irby).
Shell replied that he did in part, where-
upon Irby attempted to assault him with
the knil'e, but was met by a blow from
Shell, and the two men were then parted.
It Is impossible to say whether these are
the real details of the affair as it occurred,
as news is not obtainable.
There is every reason to believe that
there will, within the next few days, be
some sensational developments, in which
Senator Irby will be one of the principals.

This Time It Is at La Grange and ft Bo-
hemian Girl Is the Viottm.
LaGrange, Tex., July 22.-Last evening
about dark a negro outraged a servant girl
of Jacob Drozda of this town. He resides
in a thinly settled portion of the city. The
girl, after supper, carried some water to
a cow to its stall about seventy-five yards
from the dwelling, then was searching for
eggs about the stable, when she 'got into
a small room in the rear of the stall and
commenced picking up eggs. She was
caught by the back of her neck by a
negro man and mashed to the ground by
him, face foremost, but she managed to
get up, when the negro caught her by the
front part of her neck and threw her
down, choking her until he accomplished
his hellish purpose. She cried out as
much as she could, but no one came to
her assistance. Drozda and his family
were at that time on the front gallery of
the dwelling.
The girl tore the left sleeve off the
negro's coat and scratched his face con-
siderably, as her finger nails were stained
with blood. She says the negro is about
6 feet high, heavy set, large, bushy head,
round face, large eyes, skin jet black,
bow-legged and wabbles when walking.
She says the same negro tried to catch
her about two weeks ago, but she got
away from him. She is a Bohemian and
has been in this country but a few months.
Sheriff Zapp was immediately notified,
and he and some of his deputies com-
menced at once to look for the perpetrator
of this crime. This morning it spread
like wildfire and several citizens went to
pursue the culprit. Considerable excite-
ment is prevailing among the people, and
many have expressed themselves as ready
to deal with the guilty party without much
ceremony. Several arrests have been
made during the day, but all were turned
loose, as the girl did not identify any
of them.

Immense Traffic With Colorado—An In-
sane Negro.
Orange, Tex., July 22.—The trains of lum-
ber that are pulled out of the mill yards
here every day would clearly indicate that
Denver, Col., must be a long distance from
Orange. It is, but heretofore there has
been a vast amount of timber sold to the
dealers in that city by the mills at this
place and had the Denver troubles devel-
oped a little earlier a large amount of
money due the mills at this place would
have been tied up. As it is no mill at
Orange was caught in the squeeze.
It is to be hoped that the excellent crops
raised In Texas, Oklahoma and southeast
Kansas will make matters at the saw
mills more lively pretty soon, though the
mills are shipping about as much as they
cut now.
A. Gilmer had over 2,000,000 feet of logs
in his boom, which he has contracted to
have sawed at the Orange lumber com-
pany's mills.
L. Miller, president of the L. Miller shin-
gle company, Is at New Orleans superin-
tending the construction of some new ma-
chinery that will be put into his mills as
soon as completed.

court and an order was entered requiring
him to be restrained in the county jail until

From Westmoreland, Kansas, Recorder.
Some time since Chamberlain Medicine
Co.'s agent called on the Recorder and
made a contract with us to advertise his
colic and diarrhea remedy and other medi-
cines. Stanley (publisher of a rival news-
paper) one day became very much in need
of this or some other similar medicine and
called upon the Westmoreland druggist lor
something to relieve him. The druggist
suggested Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhea remedy. "No, sir," said Stanley,
"I will not take It." "Of course," said the
druggist, "if you like I will sell you some-
thing else, but this is the best thing I have."
"It makes no difference," said Stanley,
"Chamberlain's agent was in town a short
time ago and made a contract with the Re-
corder to advertise his medicines and never
called on me. I will not patronize anyone
that does not patronize me. I'll die of this
disease first." The druggist sold Stanley
a different remedy, but it did not help him
and he returned for something else. The
druggist poured some of Chamberlain's
remedy In another bottle and sold It to
Stanley as something that would be sure
to cure him, and it did. Stanley doubtless
thinks to this day that he boycotted the
Chamberlain Medicine company,

Charles Lyman Convicted of Robbery in
the Georgetown Court.
Georgetown, Tex., July 22.—Charles Ly-
man, charged with robbery committed on
Constable Hardin of Round Rock, was tried
in the district court. The jury found him
guilty and assessed his punishment at ten
years in the penitentiary. The robbery was
committed In February. Mr. Hardin was
assaulted about 1 o'clock at night by four
or five men who beat him over the head
and took his pistol from him. When ar-
rested a few days later thay had In their
possession a carpet sack containing bur-
glars' tools and some dynamite cartridges.
Hardin identified Lyman as leader of the
gang that attacked him. Three others,
Rogers, Daly and Carson, are In jail here
under Indictment and will be tried during
this term of court. From two to four dif-
fernt indictments ar« pending against each
of the gang.
Officers have had suspicions as to the
past history of these parties and have
made several attempts to have the leader
photographed. Hhe has serious objections
and when the camera points toward him
he squirms, rolls back his eyes or shuts
them tight, twists his mouth and sticks
out his tongue. The result has been most
ludicrous pictures, that his own mother
would never recognize.
