Evening Tribune has received a copy
of the World’s Fair Progress, a new pub-
lication from Dallas. It is devoted to
the interests of Texas at the Columbian
exposition.
The Tranby Croft scandal is not done
scandling yet. Emperor William object-

the Marlborough garden party given in
his honor, and that made the Prince of
Wales very wrathy. The American

Up to the hour of going to press the

CARD TO THE PUBLIC.
While it is true I have been chosen president of the Lou-
Real Estate Agent,
Houston has received the first bale of
cotton of the crop of 1891. It came from
Duval county, weighed 552 pounds, and
was sold at auction for $217.50. Queer
enough it was purchased by an aiderman, Ross’ court yesterday,
and the proceeds were donated to the
Orphans’ Home. A Houston aiderman is
not to be sneezed at.

THE BUDDING MORROW.
Albeit at midnight’s chime all light from
earth
Be fled, and through night’s shadows to the
eyes
Of us.-the weary watchers of the skies,
No sign appears of a glad morrow’s birth;
Yet at that moment the receding sun
Starts on his course returning to our sight.
Though it is long e’er any rays of light
Announce his progress in the path begun.
Therefore, oh soul, in trial’s darkest hour
Have faith; for now, thy deepest sorrow past,
The sun of joy, his steps retracing fast,
Journeys to meet thee with increasing power;
And soon his light shall to thine eyes appear.
Dispelling gloom and shaming all thy fear.

From a superficial view one would
naturally exclaim that it is a pity mat-
ters have taken the turn they have in
Ireland. But on the higher and better
belief that everything works together for
goad, and all these unfortuitous circum-
stancas, as it seems, are only elementary
parts of a blessing, the 'Kilkenny cat
fiafht now going on in Ireland may be
watched with somewhat more compla-
cence. The great and humane issue of
home rule has been swallowed up and lost
sight of in the factional contests—a
wretched Parnell and anti-Parnell fight.
The two factions are at each other’s
throats, and the good blackthorn club is
the arbiter of their fates. It is jealousy,
and personal hatred, the moralists and
the looser constructionists, who are
termed by the more reckless the anti-
moralists. The Parnellites came back at
the priests and bishops who have op-
opposed Parnell since the O’Shea scan-
dal with the argument that they (the
priests and bishops) are at heart opposed

but chiefly for those that nobody else
seems to care for, makes him rather un-
popular in his neighborhood, “what con-
stitutes a well bred dog? I don’t mean
from the fancier’s and breeder’s point of
view. We all know that the long haired,
silky Skye, the smooth, bright eyed
black and tan and the aesthetic York-
shire are supposed to be ‘born in the
purple’ and have nothing in common
with the yellow and white creature with
a black badge of demerit over one eye—
the animal we call a cur.
“But what would the dogs themselves
have to say about it if they could speak?
They ought to be the best judges, and
their opinions, so far as I can gather
them by watching their ac lions and bear-
ing toward each other, do not corrobo-
rate human sporting sentiment in the
matter at all. Tire question I want to
hear fairly answered is: Which is the
gentleman and which is the blackguard
among dogs?
“You see this dog beside me, and no
doubt you wonder, as all my friends do,
why I keep ‘such a cur’ in the house.
Well, I keep him because I believe him
to be a canine gentleman. Appearances
are certainly against him, but I have
seen gentlemen with ugly faces and un-
gainly figures, shabbily clothed, before
now.
“Can he fight? you ask. So far as his
own personal inclinations are concerned
he would rather run ten miles than fight
for ten seconds, but if an ability and a
willingness to fight are necessary quali-
fications for a gentleman, then John L.
Sullivan’s name should stand high oil
Ward McAllister’s scroll of social fame.
THE BUTCHER’S DOG.
“Can he hunt rats? 1 allowed one to
escape from a trap under his nose a few
days ago, and he wanted to play with it.
He will harm no living thing, and in
that sweetness of disposition, I hold, lies
his chief claim to the rank of gentle-
man.
“Of course, I don’t expect sporting
men to agree with me, but that all the
dogs in the neighborhood share my opin-
ion about him is plainly indicated by
his extreme popularity among his kind.
Being utterly unsuspicious, he is frankly
fearless of them all, and only once have
I seen his trust betrayed. That was
when the butcher’s bulldog (an animal
that is called well bred, though he is
brutal in appearance and disposition)
seized him, without a particle of provo-
cation, and would have killed him if the
butcher had not interfered with the
cleaver.
“Do you suppose that Lazarus (that is
my dog’s name) harbored any malice
against that ugly, vicious beast? Not an
atom. As soon as the first soreness of
the attack had, in some measure, abated,
he trotted back to the big dog without
the slightest appearance of distrust, and,
I suppose, in his guileless way, reasoned .
with him. His gentle nature prevailed,
and he has, in a great measure, refined
that rough savage character.
“They are good friends now, and the
bulldog shows a certain subserviency to-
ward Lazarus, and when he is present
will refrain from exercising his great
teeth upon the flesh of any other dog.
TWO DOGS COMPARED.
“I have no doubt at all that he recog-
nized the true canine gentleman in-
stinctively and bowed before him. That
he did not detect it before it was almost
too -late was due to the well known in-
tellectual dullness of the bulldog, whose
small modicum of brains is usually car-
ried in his fangs. All the other dogs de-
fer to him at the first meeting, and
though, marketably speaking, he is *a
cur of low degree,’ he has become the
guide, philosopher and friend of every
animal around us whose friendship is
worth having. And if you imagine for
a moment that they have been mistaken
in choosing such a leader you know very
little about canine intelligence.
“Now, look at that self satisfied fel-
low taking a sun bath in the garden.
He is said to be a pure Dandy Dinmont,
though he is a little too large to have
been what the dealers call ‘finely bred,’
but even from their point of view he is
none the worse for that. That dog cost
seventy-five dollars when he was a pup,
and I have been told he is worth $250
now. But, though 1 won’t sell him, I
have no affection for him, because he is
not a gentleman. He is quarrelsome,
without much power to fight his own
battles, and he is intensely greedy and
selfish. He growls all the time he is
eating a meal, just with the general
principle of deterring any animal within
the sound of his voice from trying to
share it with him.
“Why, if the cat wants to eat off the
plate with Lazarus, she is always wel-
come to a share of the food, or even to
all of it if she is in a particularly grasp-
ing mood. Now, which of those two
dogs is the blackguard and which the
gentleman? Let the dogs speak and the
dealers hold their tongues.”—New York
Recorder. _________________
A Woman Summoned as Juror.
I don’t think it is generally known
that a woman was recently summoned
as a juror in St. Louis. The lady tool)
the matter very philosophically and at-
tended court promptly, only, of course,
to receive the apologies of all concerned.
This was the culmination of a series oi
blunders which have occurred from
time to time, and to prevent the possibil-
ity of which a canvass will soon bt
made. Summoning a man to act as a
juror in two courts at the same time hat
been done more than once, while some
men boast that they were never called
upon to serve on a jury, and although
there must be something close to 100,000
able bodied and competent jurors in this
city, aged and exempt ’ persons are con
stantly called upon. But that ladj
juror capped the climax.—Interview in
St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
A Dancing Girl’s Request.
Every year, when autumn approaches,
Queen Victoria has her trunks packed
and goes a pilgrimage to the shrine of
the late John Brown at Balmoral. The
quiet life which her majesty is generally
leading becomes then absolutely dull and
greatly exasperates her suite. From the
windows of her royal apartments the
queen can glance at the white marble
monument on dear John’s tomb, and all
her time is devoted either to the mem-
ory of the “ever lamented” or the faithful
servant who managed to crawl up to
such a high place in her royal affections.
Once in a while, however, the dullest
of all the crowned heads in Europe feels
dull herself. Last year the parson of
Balmoral, who is a daily guest at the
royal table, seeing her majesty so bored,
and knowing her weakness for every-
thing Scotch, spoke to her of one of her
tenant’s daughters, who could dance the
reel better than any girl in Scotland,
The young lady was ordered to appear
before her majesty the following day.
When ushered into the queen’s presence
her majesty said, “I hear you can dance
the reel well; dance.”
There was nothing left for the young
lady to do but to dance and she did it so
gracefully that her majesty’s severe face
almost took a pleasant expression.
After the performance was over she
asked the girl if the queen could do any-
thing for her.
The young lady first hesitated, but
suddenly replied, “Indeed, your majesty,
you can.”
“What is it?”
“Give ma Mr. Gladstone’s head on a
charger.”
Casting a severe glance at the girl the
queen turned round and said: “Dear
child, I will willingly give you the
charger, but Mr. Gladstone’s head I can-
not.

A peerless pearl of beauty,
A jewel of romance!
W ho would not ride in tourney
To gain her winsome glance?

So tiny are her glovelets,
So dainty are her shoon,
I trow the pixies wrought them.

And o’er the elfin stitches
They sang, with many a wink,

She hath a witching dimple;
Now was it not a sin
That when the fairies crowned her
They put the dimple-in!
The heartaches it hath given
It grieves my soul to think;
She hath no care how lovers fare—
The little lass in pink.
Her smile is like a dewdrop
That glistens in the morn.
Her frown—no eye hath seen it;
She never looks in scorn.
Her footsteps fall like rose leaves
Beside the fountain’s brink.
The gallants sigh as she goes by—
The little lass in pink.

Have kissed the eyes we love.

PAUL CONRAD,

It is said that Minister Douglas could
have prevented the recent horrible mas-
, sacres in Hayti by a simple nod of the
head, but he did not or would not do it.
His private secretary, a negro named
Bassett, locked him in his room a willing
prisoner so the murder of whites could
go on unmolested. This negro Bassett
says that the white people kill negroes
in the United States and he is eorrv
that no more whites were killed in
Hayti, where the negroes are in the ma-
jority. __________ -
It was the strangest thing in the world
why the railroads of Texas w’ere in the
hands of receivers. But it is all plain
now. If you will take the trouble to in-
vestigate the matter you will find that
every railroad has a time-table, and
every railroad in the hands of a receiver
has a time-table. There is an Aristotlean
logic about this, though not so carefully
expressed, that carries with it the force
of demonstration. Time-tables are ex-
pensive luxuries, and to sport one is to
go into the hands of a receiver.
Columbia River Salmon.
The catch of salmon is still light, but
is improving slightly, which is consid-
ered a very good indication that there
are plenty of fish outside. The fish be-
ing caught are unusually fine, averaging
thirty-five pounds in weight, and run-
ning nearly all of the same size. Fish-
ermen say that as soon as the water in
the river begins to fall the fish will com-
mence to pour in, and there is a chance
that a heavy run may swell the pack to
at least somewhere near the usual pro-
portions.
Mr. James Hawthorn says he com-
menced fishing last year on May 10, and
this year lie began on April 10, a month
earlier, and now he has only eighty-five
cases more than he had at this time last
year. While the salmon are swarming
at the mouth of the river the sea lions
and seals are having a picnic

“One hundred square miles of desola-
tion. Millions of acres of burned tim-
ber land,” is how C. H. Coon, of New
York, briefly describes the burned dis-
trict of Wisconsin. Mr. Coon has just
returned from the district recently de-
vastated by fire, and he says a person
who has not visited that part of the
country since the flames swept over it
can form no conception of the desola-
tion there. Mr. Coon was at Eagle river
, ; , when the fires started with a fishing
man whose love tor dogs of all kinds, par^y an(j remained in the country un-
til last week. He tells of a narrow es-
cape he had from perishing in the flames
when near Lake Content:
“We became so used to the fires and
smoke that not much attention was
paid to the situation,” said he. “We
went about our business just as if noth-
ing unusual were going on. I was re-
turning from the lake one day with a
fine string of walleyed pike when I
found myself with my two ponies and
cart between tw’o fires. The wind was
blowing a hurricane, and 1 thought my
time had come. I could not get back to
the lake, as escape that way was cut off.
My only chance was to get to the wide
creek, but in order to reach it I would
have to drive through burning timber a
distance of 100 yards. I did not have
much time to debate the matter, and
was soon dashing through the flames,
applying the whip freely to the ponies.
“Unlike most horses they did not hesi-
tate when the burning underbrush was
reached, butdashed madly on. I held my
handkerchief over my mouth and nos-
trils, not daring to inhale the smoke and
heat. Finally the creek was reached
and the ponies plunged into the stream,
and as I was minus eyebrows, hair and
whiskers, and my clothing being on fire,
I, too, threw myself into the water. For
two hours the ponies and I remained in
the creek before it was safe to venture
out. During that time we were almost
suffocated with smoke and heat. Nearly
all the hair was burned off the horses,
and I was kept busy while in the creek
putting out charred cinders that fell
upon the bodies of the ponies and into
the wagon.”—Chicago Tribune.

to home rule through fear that if home
rule succeeds Parnell would again gain
his ascendancy with the people. Their
war against Parnell has grown so bitter
that they are ready to sacrifice home rule
to accomplish the complete overthrow of
the great leader who has shown himself
unworthy of leading the Irish people.
This is a summary of the situation which
has descended from a great national issue
of justice to a downtrodden people to a
personal wrangle among the leaders.
At the meeting Tuesday evening the
a resolution authorizing
the committee on public property to ad-
vertise for bids for the building of a new
engine-house for company No. 5. Last
night Mayor Fulton vetoed the resolu-
tion, and gave his reasons for so doing
in full, which are printed elsewhere in
this issue. The mayor’s position is im-
pregnable. There is not an assailable
point in it. In referring to the fact that
the board of commissioners of public
works has not been completed, and that
a number of the best men in the city
have been submitted for the place.
Mayor Fulton says : “I have submitted
to your consideration the names of a
number of our most reputable citizens,
and for reasons unknown to me they
have been rejected.” This is true, and
seems wholly unexplainable, yet the only
charges that can be made are that the
council acted hastily and inconsiderately.
The mayor promptly placed a check on
the matter, and properly insists that the
slower yet better plan of going according
to law be adopted. The council is grow-
ing impatient to get down to the work of
public improvements, and therefore may
be excused for being a little hasty. In
conclusion Mayor Fulton says: “I am
fully advised of the necessity of the
building contemplated by the resolution
under discussion, and I am in favor of a
liberal policy of public improvement,
but I shall not approve of any contract,
nor permit of the expenditure of a dollar
of the public moneys, unless it is done in
strict accordance with law, and in con-
formity with the best interests of the
great body of taxpayers.” The people of
Galveston can but be proud of such a
sentiment! It is a whole platform with-
in itself, the carrying out of which will
place the government of Galveston above
suspicion under any and all possible
contingencies.
The first chapter in the Itata affair has
been disposed of by a ruling in Judge
The libel case of
the Robert and Minnie, the vessel that
accompanied the Itata and was as much
a violator of neutrality laws as the
doughty little Chilian came up in the
California circuit court, and Judge Rose
discharged the defendant on the ground
that the schooner was not fitted out for
purposes of war, hence not amenable to
the libel proceedings. The case against
the Itata is clearer on the score of neu-
trality violation, but there are complica-
tions in her case that did not obtain in
that of the Robert and Minnie. She was
a Chilian vessel unlawfully in the pos-
session of the insurgents or rebels to the
rightful authority of Chili, and came into
an American port to purchase arms and
munitions of war for the rebels. The
Chilian government did not sanction the
Itata’s mission, but was powerless to
prevent it. The United States can bring
no action against the insurgents, nor
rightly confiscate Chilian property ille-
gally used by insurrectionists. The case
will be carried through the admiralty
courts with all the grim pomp and vexa-
tious red-tapism of those tribunals and
the Itata will be restored to the Chilian
government.
CURRENT COMMENT.
Waco News: The “waist-strap” is
the latest nomenclature in men’s ■fur-
nishings. It aptly describes the waist-
belt of leather that resembles—save that
it is wider—the regulation trunk strap,
being the same in color, and having the
same old-fashioned common-sense
buckle. The black sashes have all been
called in.
The Galveston dudies are juet getting
on to the black belly-bands, or perhaps
it is the other way; the black belly-
bands are just getting onto the Galveston
dudies. If the black ones have been
called in the suspicion will become con-
vincing that Galveston dudies are wear-
ing cast-off Waco belly-bands.
San Antonio Express: At 11 o’clock
las night wire communication with Gal-
veston was suddenly cut off, and up to
3 o’clock this morning it was impossible
to re-establish connection with that city.
At last accounts the wind was blowing
at a terrific rate and the waters of the
Gulf and bay were threatening to meet
and submerge the city as they did in the
summer of 1886.
The Express was unduly alarmed.
The submerging process is not easy of
accomplishment. The wind was not a
high one, in fact a Kansas man would
think it only a very light-breeze.
Louisville Times: A Republican pa-
per exultingly says that tin will win the
fight for McKinley in Ohio this ye^r.
The late President Arthur called it
employing imported Austrian stone- “soap,” and Senator Ingalls called it
—" - ■ — “fat.” Tin is just as good a name for it,
however.
Wanamaker’s corruption fund and
Quay’s blocks-of-five'are just as deflective
under any other name. The cry in 1892
is to be “tin, tin, take ’em in,” and it
will take lots of them in, too. The tariff
baron’s money will flow into Ohio this
fall.
Austin Statesman: As yellow fever has
appeared at Vera Cruz and at the quar-
antine station of St. Louis bay, the Gal-
veston Evening Tribune appeals to the
municipal authorities to clean up the
city. No use. The municipal authori-
ties of Texas do not lock the door until
the horse is stolen. Then they get a
buzz saw move on them and the Texas
press proceeds to pat them on the back
and praise their self-sacrificing heroism,
when if it would but do its plain duty it
would recommend that they be hanged
for not doing their sworn duty at a time
when it would have prevented the sacri-
fice of life.
This is a bad slam on Texas municipal
authorities, but this paper believes it
may promise a better result from Gal-
veston’s present city council. They ap-
preciate the gravity of the situation and
will not wait till the horse is stolen be-
fore making an effort to clean up.
