Sir John Pope Hennessy has spent

became known in Cork last year that he

coming home to live, much curiosity was
expressed in social circles in the south of
Ireland as to what Lady Hennessy was
like. It was known that she was a na-
tive of Mauritius, w’here she possessed
vast estates, but opinion was divided as
to whether she w’as tdack or yellow,
those being the colors popularly supposed
to belong to the inhabitants of the

SATURDAY EVENING. JANUARY 10, 1891.
You will always find it in Evening
Tribune—if it happens.
The “ scoop ” has occupied Evening
Tribune’s office for a long time past,
decorated with blue ribbons.
The Mardi Gras committee still present
their compliments to the public and want
to know what are you going to do about
The real estate ownersdt Gulv'eston who
cannot see the propriety of spending $10
to make $100 should call at the citizen’s
committee and be enlightened.
Galveston is the only city in the
union which tenders the capitalist “a
dead sure thing ” upon doubling the
value of his investment wdthin twelve
months. ________
Galveston county lands are “ dirt
cheap” now. but they won’t be so a year
hence. Home-seekers should be made
aware of that fact and Evening Tribune
is endeavoring to do it.
But little has been said of late concern-
ing the Saengetfest. The* committees,
however, are hard at work and will yet
spring a surprise upon the public. There
is no such word as “fail” in their lexi-
con. __
The next time a man suicides, he will
please do it a little earlier in the day. A
few moments’ time is of no great account
to him, but a waste of it is an expensive
luxury to an afternoon paper. If you
want a good send-off give the reporter a
chance. _ __
The Waller County Melon association
proposes to plant 600 acres this season.
One hundred acres of Galveston county
land would discount the product of that
section and they are lying uncultivated
simply because people of other states do
not know of their cheapness and fertility.
Close up the gap between Yuma and
San Diego and secure the shortest rail-
way connection across the continent and
in less than a year the cargo of every
steamship now discharged at San Fran-
cisco will be unloaded at San Diego and
pass through Galveston to its European
and eastern destination.
The Live Oak club is not a social or-
ganization. Its object is to work for the
general good of the city and it is doing
noble work. Every business man of the
city whose name does not appear upon
the membership roll should immediately
place it there and join in the work of ad-
vertising and building up Galveston.
The rumored appointment of Assistant
Attorney-General Davidson to Judge
Williams’ place on the court of appeals
bench will be approved by the bar and
public generally. During his four years
administration of the office of assistant
attorney-general he has made an enviable
reputation as an honest, conscientious
and able lawyer. His appointment may
be relied upon as a certainty.
The political prophets are casting their
boroscope and pronounce the following
changes under the new state administra-
tion as absolutely correct: H. P. Mabry,
Jefferson, is to succeed Adjutant General
King; Assistant Attorney General David-
son will succeed Judge Wilson, of the
court of appeals, resigned; R; H. Harri-
son, now of the attorney general’s office,
will succeed Davidson,and Doctor Swear-
ingen will succeed Doctor Rutherford as
state health officers.
In referring to a proposition recently
made by the Waco board of trade to
furnish that paper with “free matter” ad-
vertising the state, the Fort Worth Ga-
zette respectfully declined it, “with
thanks,” saying that it had been so ac-
customed to advertising its town and
state at its own expense that it couldn’t
indulge the idea of breaking the custom.
In a subsequent issue it says: “Each
paper in Texas advertises the state, but
each paper also devotes some extra atten-
tion to its own bailiwick, and it would be
poor policy in Dallas, Austin, Waco.
Houston and Galveston to pay the Ga-
zette for advertising Fort Worth. The
animus of the article is to convince the
advertising committees throughout the
state that they should pay their home
papers for the work they do and not seek
to entrap foreign papers by the specious
offers of free matter. Like the Gazette,
the most metropolitan papers drop such
matter into the waste-basket— “with
thanks.”

CURRENT COMMENT.
“Natu-e’s Realm” for January has
reached the desk of Evening Tribune.
It claims to be the only magazine in the
■world devoted solely to popular natural
history. All of its articles are original
and written especially for the magazine.
It has an aquarian department in which
replies to questions and information as
to how to manage aquaria will be given.
It also has a Note and Query department
for -the benefit of amateur naturalists.
Subscription, $2 per year; single copies,
26 cents. Address, Nature’s Realm Com-
pany,. 10 Warren street, New York City.
San Antonio Express: The Dallas
Times Herald thinks that the Indian
agent is chargeable with all the trouble.
The Times-Herald is off its base. It is
the man who appointed the agents who is
responsible.
Speaking of the race question the San
Antonio Express says:
Texas, because she is bigger and richer
than the other southern states, and has a
larger school fund, does not claim to
be the only st;ate which has done its
duty, and more than its duty in this
respect. The south has over 15,000 schools
for negroes, over 17,000 teachers,
for 'hem, and nearly 2,000,000 pupils en-
rolled, and this does not include eighty-
four colleges and high schools. To their
support we have contributed nearly $40,-
000,000 Such persecution ought to com-
pel the negro to emigrate.
Now swing the bloody shirt and howl
at the manner in which the “colored
man and brother” is treated and bull-
dozed and terrorized in the south.
The Houston Post grows facetious when
it says;
WaCO has alreeady decided upon her
display at the Galveston Mardi Gras
She will pose as the“Artesian Well City”
and be personated by, a maiden rejoicing
in the aqueous attributes and silver slip-
pers of ancient Thetis and the brand new
mythological name of “Artesia.” She
will take one of Waco’s artesian wells
with her and give the rain water absorb-
ers of the island a taste of pure water.
The Waco float is to be “gotten up
regardless,” and will be, in the expres-
sive Qalveston vernacular, a “jimhun.”
Now what is Houston, the sure enough
city of artesian wells, the true home of
Artesia, Artesius and all the nymphs of
umbrageous foliage and translucent
springs, going to do about it? Waco has
appropriated Thetis and Neptune, but
Oceanus and Hygeia are still open for
an engagement. Likewise Triton with
his horn, and Proteus the old sage of the
sea, with his diversified political pro-
clivities. Houston cannot afford to be
outshone by her little sister on the mid-
dle waters of the muddy Brazos. She
must bec-tir herself.
Let Houston do as well as Waco has
promised to do and she also will be wel-
come.
