Father E. C. De Lamoriniere, S. J., will
leciture on “Southern Chivalry” at Ca-
thedral hall this evening. This lecture
has practically the same foundation as
that on “Christian Chivalry” which he
delivered here with. such fine effect 10
years ago, and has been delivered in nearly
every southern city with great eclat. It
can not fail to awaken the enthusiasm and
patriotism in the hearts of all southerners,
for it deals extensively with the south’s
great struggles, and glowing tributes are
paid to Gen. Jackson and other leaders of
the boys in gray, Which are calculated to
inspire in' the hearts of his hearers a
deathless love for the lost cause and a
strong desire to emulate, the noble example
of those heroes. That a large audience
will greet the reverend father goes with-
out saying, for all who remember his
former lecture here- will be delighted to
hear him on his new theme.
Father De Lemoriniere is one of the
most cultured and deeply read lecturers
of the south.
The following program has been ar-
ranged :
1. Overture—“Southern Melodies”
Prof. Schram’s Orchestra.
2. “Life’s Lullaby” Gerald Lave
Miss Ella Dellahaunty.
3. “On the Swanee Shore”
Misses M. and K. O’Shaughnessy.

A FOLLOWER OF MEASLES.
In many instances a persistent cough
follows an attack of measles. In speaking
of this Mr. Walter B. Reel, editor of the
Elkin (N. C.) Times, says: “Three weeks
ago I had an attack of measles, which left
me with a bad cough. I took several doses
of Chamberlains Cough Renjedy and the
.cough has entirely disappeared. I consid-
er Chamberlain’s medicines the best on
the market.” For sale' by all druggists.

Their Exhibition Tomorrow Night Prom-
ises to Be Interesting.
Leo Posner has received from Chicago
two pairs of “Corbett special” five ounce
boxing gloves. They are the finest ever
seen in this city and will be used tomor-
row rii^ht in the. exhibition between In-
structors Hurley. and Scanlan of the; Gal-
veston Athlefic club. Before. thd , main
attraction'Gene Fielding- and Johnny Belt
will box 10 rounds. •
Hurley has made many friends here.
He and Scanlan have been posing before
the camera lately and the result is some
pretty good pictures which will probably
be seen in the newspapers tomorrow
or the day after.
A fine attendance is assured at the club
rooms for the exhibition tomorrow night,
as it is realized that the- “professors” are
about as evenly matched as you can get
two boxers to be.

the time, but you can’t bluff the whole
population on all occasions. When a re-
frigerator salesman tells you his article is

and remove- the top moulding from his
“box” aiul he won’t do it, for it would dis-

THEY WOULDN’T STRIKE.
The Minneapolis Journal says the man-
agers of a cigarette factory in Philadelphia
kept the girls from striking by buying ice
cream and candy and providing music.
This plan would no doubt be all right in
a town where the major portion of the
population only wake up long enough to
turn over, ask what o’clock and gulp down
a swallow of clabber. There is a strike
going on in St. Louis and the citizens of
that beery city are having several dozen
kinds of a time. It takes something dif-
ferent from red lemonade and tutti frutti
out here in the unbridled west. What they
need is a few cases of Galveston beer.
POST OFFICE TO CLOSE.
On account of Decoration day the post

Tomorrow will be Degoratiori day. The
graves of the nation’s heroes who lie bur-
ied in Galveston cemeteries will be strewn
with sweet flowers and the flag of their
country will be placed above the sleeping
dead by their comrades of war who, too,
must eventually return to Mother Earth.
The Woman’s Relief Corps of the Grand
Army of the Republic will see that the
graves ot all federal soldiers are suitably
decorated. To that end they have issued
the following order:
As han been our custom i< the past, so
will we this i'ea.r proceed to the Ursuline
convent, there to show our appreciation of
the services rendered to the suffering sol-
diers and sailors of the civil war by ■ the
noble women~bf that institutl j.i, by laying
flowers on the graves of Mother St. Pierre
and her companions, who, with her, ren-
dered such kind hospitality to- our com-
rades during- those terrible times, that
tried men’s souls. Comrade Buckley will
speak appropriately on that occasion. This
will conclude the exercises of the day.
From 9 a. m. till 3 p. m. Wednesday,
flowers and evergreens may be left at the
Fourth Presbyterian church for the deco-
ration of the graves of the Grand Army of
the Republic and Woman’s Relief Corps,
as well as those of the late war. It is re-
quested and -expected that all who have
flowers and evergreens will donate and
send them to the church above mentioned,
where a committee of ladies will receive
them end weave them into garlands and
wreaths and provide for their conveyance
to the cemeteries.
The comrades will assemble at 3 o’clock
p. m. for the purpose of forming, and at
3.30 o’clock will promptly march from the
church to Broadway and 22d, where they
will take cars'for the cemetery.
We especially invite all ex-soldiers and
sailors, including all ex-soldiers and sail-
ors of the late war.
The committee is composed of Nathalie
Perkins, chairman; Mrs. A. B. Homer,
Mrs. Ed. Ketchum. Mrs. W. H. Boyd.
The soldiers of the late Hispano-Amer-
ican war will form a. separate decorating
body to pay homage and respect to their
dead comrades who died waiting and
hoping for the order that never came,
who died for their country without once
scenting "Hie smoke of battle, yet who
would have willingly given a thousand
lives for but the opportunity of meeting

mand to provide for the living and to- care
for the dead. The organization will deco-
rate the graves of the soldiers of that
regiment who died in the service. To that
end the following order has' been issued:
“Headquarters First Immune association
(1st United States volunteer infantry)—

First Immune association and all former
members of the 1st Linited States volun-
teer Infantry are hereby notified to as-

“After decorating the graves of Comrade
Callaghan the members will proceed to

dead comrades interred there, Lieut. J. J.
Tierney and Private E. Miller.
“The mounds under which our departed
comrades sleep awaiting the eternal rev-
ielle will be strewn with flowers and the
colors under which they died will be im-
planted.
“All comrades are requested to bring

Buyers who want a handsome, well made
Piano with a true musical tone, which
will bear a severe critical examination
(musically and otherwise) from their
friends, should buy a Goggan Piano.
We state plainly and clearly that no oth-
er instrument can be bought equal to the
Goggan Piano for the price. This is strong
language, but we mean every word of it.

above blank and leave-'-it where the enu-
merator can get it.
As colored people are generally apathetic
in sumitting to be interrogated, heads of
white families are also requested to fur-
nish these blanks to their colored ser-
vants, explaining to them w’hat is required
by the census department.
There is a penalty of $100 imposed by the
United States statute for refusing to fur-
nish information to census enumerators.
When citizens are advised that the cen-
sus enumerator has canvassed the block
upon which they reside and has failed to
call upon them, they are further requested
to notify Mr. Hart Settle, supervisor of the
census, at his office, Mechanic and 22d, of
such neglect on the part of the enumer-
ator, and such complaint will receive
prompt-attention.
Citizens expecting to be absent from the
city between June 1 and 15 can secure
from Mr. Settle official blanks, which may
be filled out by them and left either with
Mr. Settle or with their neighbor, to be
turned in to the enumerator when he shall
call.
SlTf&S
The above ate the questions that will be
asked by the United States ceiisus enumer-
ators in collecting information for the 12th
census, the canvass to be made between
June 1 and 15.
Not only with the view of facilitating
the work of the enumerators, who have
only 13 working days in which to complete
the work of taking the census of the en-
tire city, but with the more important ob-
ject view of seeing that the census of this
city is thoroughly taken, citizens are re-
quested to fill out this schedule in advance,
clip it from the paper, and have it ready
to hand to the enumerators when they ap-
ply for the information, thus saving time
and insuring more accuracy in having am-
ple time to prepare the answers in ad-
vance.
The printing of this schedule is intended
to be of special benefit to occupants of
boarding houses, and young men who
have rooms in the business portion of the
city, who are not as accessible to the
enumerators as are heads of families, and
such persons are requested to fill out the
During the past 24 hours the strike.situa-
tion has practically remained in statu quo.
No changes worthy of note have occurred.
While there have been rumors of all de-
scriptions afloat as to what both sides
have done or proposed doing, when run
down these rumors have invariably been
without foundation.
All the planing mills are running, and
are suffering but little inconvenience on
account- of the strike. There was a rumor
afloat this morning to the effect that the
union mill men would agree to work nine
hours per day at the same scale of wage
per hour they have been receiving for
eight hours work. The story also inti-
mated that should, they tender such an
offer it is probable that the mill men
would accept it. This rumor, could not be
run down and is only given for what it
may be worth.
The contractors are not hesitating
about bidding on any prospective work on
account of the strike. A great many of the
union men are also working. The natural
sequence of such a state of affairs will ne
that the contractors paying a. scale of
wages of a lower minimum than 40 cents
per hour will be in a position to bid lower
than those paying the scale asked for by
the union.
One peculiar thing about the present
strike is that there are. a great many
union men out on account of the strike
who- when they work receive a higher
scale of wages than they are now striking
for. This body of men are a superior class
of mechanics and the contractors say they
are worth from 25 to 50 per cent more than
the average carpenter. At the same time
they are sticking to their weaker brothers
closer than a porous plaster and will not
work for an “unfair” contractor at any
scale of wages.
While the end of the strike is not yet in
sight, conditions are rapidly shaping them-
selves so that the next few days will tell
which side will win out.
Board of Public Works Orders Advertise-
ments. for Paving Materials.
Yesterday afternoon the board of public
works held a meeting to receive specifica-
tions and estimates prepared by City En-
gineer Peek for the laying of the five
blocks of paving authorized by the last
session of the city council.
City Engineer Peek submitted estimates
showing that it would approximately cost
to. pave the streets, including intersections
of streets and alleys and storm drains,
as follows:
Avenue F, $6842.48'; 20th street, $9040.34;
Market street, $3550.35.
Capt. Peek added 10 per cent for emer-
gencies to his original estimates, making
his actual estimate 10 per cent cheaper
than the above figures.
The board adopted all the specifications
with the exception of the specifications
for 20th street. On this street the board
ordered that the intersections of streets
and alleys be left unpfjve^.
Capt. Peek read replies he had received
from about 15 of the property owuer^
man as he presented his returns,
for Hynes. That’s where the ratio
in.”
Then Mr. Meyer told the reporter about
some fine June corn he is raising. “It’s
nine feet high now, and when I cut it I’m
going to bring some up for you to see.”
Josephus is wise enough to ’tend the
crops regardless of politics.

United States Department of Agricul-
ture-Climate and crop bulletin of the
weather bureau, Texas section, for the
week ending Monday, May 28, 1900:
The rain at the opening of the week fur-
ther retarded farming operations. More
favorable weather prevailed toward the
latter part of the week and most all land
where fairly well drained was in a very
good condition for cultivation. Farm
work was being rushed and with another
week of favorable weather farmers will be
pretty well up with their work.
Much corn was worked out during the
latter part of the week. The crop is late,
but in good condition generally. Some
corn on low land still grassy and in need
of work. As a rule the crop is irregular,
but is growing nicely..
Wheat and oats continue to do well.
These crops are ripening nicely and con-
fined dry weather is needed 'for harvest-
ing, Wheat is reported to be very good.
Oats are generally good. Harvesting is
in progress in many sections.
Cotton chopping was retarded at the
opening of the week by the wet weather,
but this work was rushed after the weath-
er cleared up and much cotton has been
chopped out. Some low land is still re-
ported too wet for tillage. All upland cot-
ton has been chopped out in most sections
and is reported in fair condition. Cotton
planting continues in places and it is be-
lieved that a great deal of the low land
will yet be planted if the weather will
admit. The crop is late, and very irregular
on account of so much replanting. It is
reported from Chico and Columbia that
the Mexican weevil has made its appear-
ance. Conditions as a, whole have im-
proved with the more favorable weather.
Rice planting continues. Forage, sugar
cane and other crops are doing well. Pears
are blighting, but other fruit is doing well.
Vegetables are improving.

The Democratic primaries last evening
brought out a remarkably heavy vote-
more' than .2200 ballots being cast in the
city. The Bryan-Aguilo ticket won in
every ward except the 9th, where the in-
dependent ticket headed by Miles Crowley
got a majority. There was some dispute
over the manner in which the election in
the 9th was held, and Maco Stewart says
a contesting delegation will go to the
county convention.

crushing defeat for Robert Webber, for-
mer chairman of the Democratic executive
committee.

The Democratic county convention will
be held at Harmony hall June 1. A full
ticket will be nominated.
There will probably be no contest over
the legislature, the candidates for the sen-
ate and house being practically unopposed.
Ernest D. Cavin will probably be nom-
inated for the judgeship of.the 56th district
court.
Whether Judge Stewart will be nomi-
nated for the 10th district judgeship re-
mains to be seen.
Miles Crowley and John W. Campbell
are seeking the nomination for county

An effort will be made.to select a very
strong ticket for county commissioners,
but who stand the best show of getting o.>
it is a .mystery.
For the minor county offices there is not
as sharp a rivalry as.might be expected.
