AN IMPORTANT LAND SUIT.
The case of Welch vs. Tacquaro et al.,
lately on trial in the district court before
Judge Stewart is of general public inter-
est on account of the large amount of
land involved. This action was brought
to enforce the specific performance of a
contract to convey some four thousand
acres of land situated on the line of the
Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe railway be-
tween Hitchcock and Arcadia. The land
at the time of the making of the contract
was the property of Mr". J. Tacquard, but
is now claimed by both Mr. M.L. Welch,
a Minneapolis capitalist, and Mr. M. S.
Waller of this city.
Mr. Welch, through his attorney, Mr.
John Charles Harris of the Galveston
bar, has taken an appeal and will contest
his rights before the highest courts in the
land. -

Emerson Piano Testimonial
From Edmund Ludwig who was a pupil
of Rubensteins for nine tears, and of
whom the “musical world” said “he
possesses that grand master’s sublime”
touch on the Piano.
Austin, Tex., June 29, 1891.
Mr. Louis Scherding, Manager Thomas Goggan
&Bro , Austin, Tex
Dear Sir:—The Emerson upright piano
which I had the pleasure of using during
my stay in Austin, has fully met the
exacting requirements that were made
upon it.
It has a sweetness and purity of tone
rarely found in upright pianos, and the
action seems to possess all the respon-
siveness of a fine Grand piano.
I do not remember ever playing on any
piano that gave me as much satisfation
excepting the Steinway Grand;
Sincerely Yours,
Edmund Ludwick.

over the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe
railroad for August 7, the time for their
annual meeting on the classic shores of
Buffalo bayou.
There is a cedar tree lying prone across
the sidewalk on Postoffice street near the
postoffice, that was blown there Sunday
night. Pedestrians must needs go into
the street to get around it, yet no effort
has been made to have it removed.
The tug Cynthia went outside this
morning and brought two schooners and
a barkentine into the inside roads. She
then went out for another vessel, which
could be barely seen from the barge of-
fice. She will bring all into the harbor
this afternoon.
The Letter Carriers’ picnic, which was
to take place on July 4, but had to be
postponed on account of the storm, will
come off at Woollam’s lake tomorrow.
It is .to be hoped that the attendance
will be large and that the weather may
be propitious for the occasion.
All members of the Electric Club are
notified to meet at their hall Sunday
morning, July 12th, at 8:30 a. m., to at-
tend in a body the picnic given by J. H.
Bolton and associates at Opitz park. J.

many friends will be glad to welcome
her back to Galveston.
The visit of the Oleander club and
friends to New Orleans next Sunday, and
for a four days’ stay, will be a memor-
able event. Everyone who can possibly
spare the time should betake himself and
wife, or mother, or sweetheart, to the
train next Sunday morning and go over
to the Crescent City on this most enjoy-
able trip.
A meeting of those interested in get-
ting up the regatta that has been on the
tapis for some weeks will be held at
Henry L. Babcock’s resort on Saturday
evening to make final arrangements for
the event. At least two new yachts will
be entered—the Pearl W., which is now
being altered from a cat-rig to a sloop,
and the new boat belonging to Captain
Hutchings.
It may be a little bit early, some may
say, to begin speaking of arrangements
for Galveston’s mardi gras next Febru-
ary, but the time will soon roll around.
It takes lots of work to prepare for a big
celebration like that one held last Feb-
ruary, and to insure its perfect success,
as was thH one, hence it may be spoken
of in ample time.
The first anniversary picnic given by
local union No. 276 of the Brotherhood
of Painters, Decorators and Paper Hang-
ers of America, at Opitz park, will take
place on Sunday, July 19. There will be
base ball between Houston and Galves-
ton Painter’s nines. A 150 yards foot
race, 100 yards hurdle race, six year old
baby race for boys and girls, sack race,
fatman’s race, shaking pole, swinging I

and dancing. The arrangement com-
mittee is in itself a guarantee of success.
It is made up as follows: Thos. J.
Moore, chairman; M. J. Pitzl in, Fred
- Gernand, A. Peacoct, C. H. True, C. H.
Frye, A. Koehler, and Gus Chappell.
.. Charlie Fox and Charlie Porter are en-
deavoring to arrange a glove contest to I
take place before the Athletic association I
next Saturday evening. Further partic-
ulars will be given tomorrow.
The Oleander excursion leaves for the
Crescent City next Sunday. The party
will remain in New Orleans until Friday
morning at 8 o’clock. Some of the at-
tractions during the stay may be named :
Fall of the Bastile, Last Days of Pompeii, I
grand pyrotechnical display, the famous I
Mexican band. Herb’s Light Guard
band will accompany the excursion.
Mr. Jake Weinberger, president of the
Blewfields Banana company and Galves-
ton Fruit Importing and Trading com-
pany, has gone to Blewfields, Nicaragua, I
to look after his extensive interests in
that section. He departed and will re-
turn via New Orleans, owing to the
stringent quarantine regulations prevail-
ing at this port.
A colored man named George Nelson
reported the loss of a silver .watch some
days ago. This morning Officer Ed
Richardson recovered the watch in are-
pair shop on Center street and arrested a
colored lad named PhilipDeumner for the
theft. Deumner was found on Tremont
street in company with Nelson’s son and
did not attempt to deny his guilt.
The Blewfields Banana company has
secured the services of Signor Luigi Dell
Orto during the temporary absence of
1 Mr. Leonard Mueller. Signor Orto comes
' from New Orleans and is recognized as a I
! fruit expert without an equal in his line.
’ His specialty is the handling of bananas
and other tropical fruits which require a
keen judgment and quick perception.
The reloading and shipment of the
Franklin’s cargo will be under his super-
vision, assisted by the Galveston expert,
Charlie Weinberger.
Captain W. E. McDonald, commercial
agent of the San Antonio and Aransas
Paes road, is not very sensitive in some
things, but he objects to being called
“Joe McDonald the hustler,” as a tele- |
gram from Houston to the Daily Time
Table of this morning styles him. He
desires it understood that he has no
sweetheart, and is nobody’s Joe. In this
connection it might also be well to correct
another statement made by the same re-
liable (?) authority, vizi^that the. rail-
road commission had authorized the
Aransas Pass company to make a rate ot
25 cents on bagging and ties from Galves-
ton to common points. The rate is 21
cents from Galveston and 16 cents from
Houston. The rates go into effect July
16th. _
