ARTESIAN WELL TALK.
A M*ASS MEETING OF CITIZENS
MEET AND
Discuss Ways and Means of Securing;
Artesian iWater. They Talk Busi-
ness and We May Cet
Water Yet.
lit response to a previously publish-
ed cull there was a mass meeting of
the citizens of Breubam held at tho
otllco of Major T. B. Holts at 5:30 Fri-
day evening.
Dr. 1!. E I.uhn was called to the
chair and Capt. .1. M. Byrnes was
elected secretary.
Mr. Wm. Axer stated the object of
the meeting, which was to see if tho
citizens of Brenham wanted to take
the matter in hand about getting
artesian water.
Mr. Axer stated that Mr. Stone in-
tended discontinuing work at his
place and would place the tools aud
whatever facilities he might have at
the disposal of his fellow-citizens if
they wished to take up the matter. It
was believed that water could be ob-
tained and now wasthemost propitious
time for an undertaking of this kind.
Mr. Axer spoke fully on tho subject
and the benefits that would accrue to
this city if we only get an artesian
flow of water.
Mr. Mesmann then made a few re-
marks about his experience ho being
the gentleman who managed the bor-
ing of tho artesian well at Mr. Stone's
place.
Mr. .1. A. Wilkius the mayor was
then interrogated on the question if
the city could levy a tax for public
improvements, or if it had levied a
tax tor that purposo to its full limit
already. Ho said the tax was now at
its limit.
Mr. Pennington tho city attorney
was then called upon for his opinion
as to how the citizens of Brenham can
go to work to raise the money to get
an artesian well. He stated that the
city could not issue bonds but the
charter allowed the city to borrow to
the extent ot i?l">,000 for improve-
ments.
Mr. Schwelss then spoke on the sub-
ject of difference of supply wells and
(lowing wells. Tho former can be
easily got aud furnish plenty of water
whereas a flowing well is doubtful.
Mr. Messruan expressed the opinion
that at SCO feet wo could get an inex-
haustible supply of water. Ho could
not say that it would flow but would
furnish supply water for all purposes.
Tho cost would tie roughly stated at
about .>•">,000.
Moved that the chair appoint a com-
mittee to consider the matter aud in-
quire into it and consult with the
city authorities. The committeo to
meet on Monday next at op, in. at

Benefits of Agitation.
Human life in many respects corre-
sponds with nature. The purity of
the ocean depends upon its constant
motion. A perpetual calm would pro-
duce stagnation. Animal lifo exists
by continual formentation producing
heat the essential element of preserva-
tion.
Man by nature of his very constitu-
tion is a dissatisfied creature, let him
covet and attain one thing, it becomes
the find of a desire to obtain many
things—that which ho gets serves as
a forco to push him further on. Kx-
celsior is tho word, though the object
sought may be ignoble. Who would
have men otherwise? It is a suro
proof of his divine origin even while
he falls short of the divine ideal. As
a man thinketh so is lie. A noble man
in action is the incarnation of his noble
thoughts. The force of a friend
sharpeneth that of one then, as two
flints struck tooethcr produce tire, so
thought strikes thought and inspires
grand deeds. Wendell Phillips was
called the great agitator and persisted
until he gained his point, while some
may condemn the man, all must ad-
mire his pluck. What wo need is
strong manhood and noble woman-
hood. People with ideas who aro not
afraid to express thorn. One Apostlo
said to his church I stir tip your pure
minds by way of remembrance, that
word stir is interse energy. In boil-
ing it keeps heat in equilbrium, gives
a uniform brownness to coffee, throws
up the settlings of impurity, Ac., as
applied to the mind it brings dormant
faculties to the front and utilizes them
for good. Agitation in a good
cause is most beneficial. It stimu-
lates to progress, ft points out tho
possibility of new discovers. It un-
masks corruption and purifies social
and political life. Agitation is a great
force in religion, politics and a lever
that wise newspaper men use with
great power. The great danger is in
stagnation the great foe to enterprise.
Fur all that is beneficial and truly
helpful on all lines let every good citi-
zen agitate until public si-ntiinenl«
torments \\ itli action.

A Caldwell special of the 25th says :
"In the district court is an important
murder case on trial to-day—Joe Mc-
Queen, charged with killing his cous-
in, Boli McQueen, last spring. More
than one venire lias been exhausted
and the jury is incomplete yet.
l)r. A. Laugham, living southwest
from town, was bitten on tho hand by
a large rattlesnake ou the 14th of this
month. He says that in less than
half a minute lie turned blind from
tho effects of the bite, and but for a
liniment ho had near hint in his sad-
dlebags he would have died. He is
able to bo around, and says tho side of
the body on which tlie hand is bitten
seems to be affected with swelling
and paiu.
The grand jury adjourned this even-
ing, finding twenty-two bills—six. fel-
onies and sixteen misdemeanors.
A Chappell Hill special of tho i'jth
says : "a light rain fell here Thurs-
day evening, but not enough to do
any good. Farmers are needing rain
on their corn. Mr. J. A. Small
brought in a stalk of cotton into town
this morning, and if had about a
dozen squares and one bloom. This
was tho tirst bloom brought into
town. The recent cold wave did
some damage to young cotton, but
with a warm rain and a few days ot
warm sunshine it will fully react
again.

The court finished payment on a 1H()
foot bridge over Old River on Clay

A request lias been received by Mr.
.1, <1. Kankin from his old comrade in
Greens Brigade, Mr. Theodore Noel at
Chicago for Texas flowers, to be used
on May .'10 in decorating the graves of
the T"i00 Confederates who died dur-
ing the war at Cam]) Douglas and
who aro buried in tho Confederate
cemetery at Chicago. The Wells,
Fargo express company will tako tho
(lowers to-day, free if marked for Dec-
oration day." In all the years since
the war, Mr. Noel says, not a (lower
has been sent from Texas, while all
tlie other States except Arkansas have
been liberal in their contributions. It
is hoped that a large quantity of flow-
ers may be fixed tip for shipment, that
Brenham may sustain its tame as the
"Land or Flowers" and as containing
a population which never neglects a
duty.

The ( ourt of Appeals in tho case of
C. W. Boscow vs. State—Appeal from
Fayette: A part of tho false pretense,
upon which appellant is alleged to
have obtained the money front Dunn,
who employed him to cure his wife,
was that appellant was a, member of
a medical institute in San Antonio, in
which there were twelve physicians,
I>r. 1 lertr being one, and that he was
associated with Hertl'in the practice
of medicine. There was no error in
permitting Herd to testify that lie was
not associated with defendant and
that his son was not. Tho remarks of
the county attorney were highly im-
proper thero is no case in which in-
vective ami abuse of defendant by the
state's olVicer i- justifiable. The re-
marks were not excepted to, nor was
the court asked to charge ill reference
t hereto. Some time after t lie remarks
were made a bill was taken, but the
court's attention was not called to
them at the time. There is nogrotiiid
for resei'sal.
It the witness Dunne had rciicd
alone on the promise of defendant to
perform certain acts in the future,
there would lie no od'eiise; but wlicro
tho promise is connected with a false
pretense ot an existing fact, and he
thereby obtained a eredi t and intluenee
with Dunne that he could not other-
wise obtained, it would support the
charge ot swindling. Aflinued. opin-

For a lamo monarch tho activity
of Leopold II, king of the Belgians, is
unparalleled. He has been known
to bat ho in tho morning at < istend,
sign dispatches in Brussels at noon
and bo shooting in the Ardennes lie-
fore nightfall. IlisaiTangenients are
frequently made without premedita-
tion. He is an enthusiast in railway
matters, hates horse riding, is never
seen in lus own capital except in a
closed English brougham and would
appear to have now added a tricycle
toliis means of locomotion.—Brussels
