Grand Jury
Chappell Hill, Texas, January
21.—Yesterday, before Justice
Campbell, the examining trial of
young Cominsky was held for
the shooting of the 6-year-old
son of Mrs. Sojilsky some two or
three weeks ago. Young Com-
insky claimed that the shooting
was accidental, but he was ar-
rested under the charge of at-
tempted murder and his trial re-
sulted in his being held in a $300
bond for his appearance before
the next grand jury. The little
boy now lies between life and
death, his leg slowly rotting
away.

Hon. W. E. Dwyer, chairman

ner reporter Monday morning.
"Is to see Hon. R. B. Hawley
and Hon. E. H. R. Greene elect-
ed as delegates at large from
Texas to the national convention
at Philadelphia. You may say
further, if you want to, that
every indication points to the
fact that Hon. R. B. Hawley will
be a candiate for re-eleotion to
congress from the Galveston
district, and you may say also,
that the signs of .times point to
his re-election by an increased
majority. I am not in Mr. Haw-
ley's district, nevertheless, he
can count on everything that I
can do to promote his interests."

THEATRICAL EVENT OF THE 8EA80M
the
Something New at The Lobby of
Exchange Hotel.
The first musical instrument of
the kind ever seen in Brenham
was on exhibition at the Ex-
change hotel Monday night.
The success of the initial concert
was such as to guarantee a oon
tinuous performance for some
time to come and to be quite a
source of pleasure to the patrons
of the place as well as a means
of income to the proprietor.
The new instrument is named in
musical parlance Regins Corona
It is the first and only music box
made that automatically changes
its tune sheets, plays any tune at
will and repeats it as often as de-
sired. Without being touched
after being started, it plays Well
the tunes in the repertoire by
continuous autamatic movement.
It if especially adopted for hotels
and summer resorts, and will
furnish delightful musio to its
hearers without requiring any
attention whatever.
Avery large orowd attendee
the first performance of the
machine at the Lobby Monday
night and all were delighted with
the concert.
In Olden Times.
People overlooked the import
ance of permanently beneficii
effects and were satisfied with
transcient action; but now that it
is generally known that Syrup of
Figs will permanently overcome
habitual constipation, well-in-
formed people will not buy other
laxatives, which act for a time,
but finally injure the system.
Buy the genuine, made by the
California Fig Syrup Co.
The Banner received a mess
of turnips Monday from the gar'
den of Mr. George W. Petty, two
miles west of the city. The
argest of the lot weighed a few
ounces less than ten pounds.
They were raised on sandy land.

Maccabees, will take place at the
Wednee
regular
night
meeting Wednesday
For Pining.
Creston Clarke Company Skewed to
Standing Boom Only.
For the third time, lsst night
Mr. Creston Clarke appeared be-
ore a Brenham audience in the
field of romantio drama. "A Son
of France" was the offering.
The audience last night was lar-
ger than heretofore, but did not
differ ^in personnel widely from
those of the proceeding years
when "The Last of His Race"
and the "Ragged Cavalier" were
the attractions. In his latest role
Mr. Clarke made a more favora-
ble local impression than in eith-
er of the other two, and his per-
formance was very generousl
applauded. As a popular sue*
cess, "A Son of France" will
probably take first rank in his
entire repertoire. The play does
not abound in beautiful lines,
patriotic sentiment or poetic
thought, but it has a number of
popular, breeze-catching ele-
ments and is the kind of success
that comes to stay. Mr. Clarke
doubtless appreciated the com-
pliment of "standing room only"
sign the first of the present sea-
son.
The play and the part of Beat-
rice, Duchess d' Armine, affords
Mrs. Clarke, or Miss Adelaide
Prince an opportunity to wear
some very elaborate gowns, and
something that was sadly defi-
cient when she appeared last
season in a "Ragged Cavalier.
The annual visits of Miss Prinoe
are given a very decided tinge of
localism by her kinship hero,and
while this influence is not re-
quired in order to popularize her
in any way, it nevertheless en-
genders an interest in her ap-
pearance and stimulates the
hearty good will with which she
is always received.
Following the performance a
-theatre supper was held at Lusk's
hall. The Chaperons were, Mr.
and Mrs. Hugh Lusk, Mrs. A.
D. Childress, Hon. D. C. Stone.
Other members of the party
were Misses Edna Ross, Viviene
