Barbara E. Horton and Dora F.
Love to cancel deed and foreclose
lien was tried by jury in the For-
ty-fifth District court this morn-
ing. A verdict was brought in ren-
dering judgment for defendant.
THE BREEDING CASE.
Defendant is Closely Guarded—More
Particulars of the Accusations.
Dr. James B. Breeding is being
closely guarded by the officers in
Mrs. Young’s boarding house on St.
Mary’s street. This is done because
of the desire of the St. Louis offi-
cers to take no chances of losing
their man. He removed from his
residence in the eastern part of
the city Friday night wdth his
valise and since then has been un-
der surveillance.
It is now believed the forger of
the orders on the Wells-Fargo
company gained little or nothing
for his pains being discovered and
frustrated too early in the game.
The St. Louis papers especially
the Chronicle contains a great deal
of printed matter about young
Breeding the Chronicle publishing
his photograph and also a state-
ment that he got the idea of being
a bad man from reading yellow
back novels. It also says his
library is full of them. The story
is also printed that he eloped with
his present wife and the affair is
treated very romantically.
HELLO THERE:
Are you looking for a large lot near
Main p.aza for an elegant building sight?
If so I’ll sell you 86x250 feet on Dwyer
avenue the Bon Ton residence part of

Think what a beautiful spot it will make
or a home. J. A. Dauohkrty

BOTH PROFESS RELIGION.
May and Brown Now Becoming
Quiet—May to he Hung
Publicly.
J. D. May whose end is ap-
proaching very fast is now quiet-
ing down and becoming very much
awed if not frightened. His as-
sumed Indifference and bragga-
docio which has characterized his
conduct since his Incarceration and
he now Seems while not repentant
at least disposed to accept the con-
solation Qf religion for he was
christened yesterday by Rev. Fath-
er Emory of the Catholic church
and the sacraments of the church
were partaken of by him.
May no longer whistles gayly
and chaffs Austin Brown on being
a dude because be asked for a black
suit for his execution. He told
him he May would as lief be hung
in his shirt alone as not. He does
not say so now. He realizes his
position.
Sheriff Seale will take May to
Karnes City some time this week
and will there prepare him for hit-
doom.
The jail at thafplace is now in
an open space the fence having
been torn away for repairing a
part of the jail.
It is the first execution ever oc-
curring in Karnes county and will
be public. There will be a large
crowd in Karnes City next Fri-
day.
Brown spent yesterday in medi-
tation and prayer. Since his incar-
ceration he has been visited by
his old master’s daughter MihS
Eva Graves now M r«. V. E.
Vaughan. The lady broke down
and cried and Brown then broke
down and for the first time since
his connection with this terrible
affair he too shed copious tears.
Sheriff Camphell has set the
death watch on Brown.
THE GUN SCORES.
Notes and Remarks of Interest to
All.

18 Philips 21 France 25 Rothwell
25 Shields 17 Biesenbach 18WIth-
well 10 McVicker 18 Thiele 21

GUN NOTES.
The shooters were out for blood
yesterday.
The grounds put on their best
all covered with a coat of green
the weather all that could be wish-
ed for. Those who attended had a
great time.
The article appearing in the
Light of Saturday on “The Gun
Crank” seemed to be the topic of
conversation yesterday and each
and every shooter chose and ac-
cepted his particular hobby.
France Tendick and Rothwell
tied on a score of 25 and in the
shoot off at 5 singles and 2 pair
Tendick made 7 Rothwell 6 and
France 5.
Thiele Black and Tendick have
each won a place under the rules
governing the trophy in the first
class and Volbrecht Wagenfuehr
and Grossman in the second class.
There is talk among the shooters
of engaging a hack to ply between
the end of the car line and the
ground during the hot weather.
The shooters going to the club
grounds were shamefully treated
by the “boy conductors” who
handle the trolley from Prospect
Hill. Their instructions on Sunday
are to take every other car to the
lake but it seems they use their
own discretion in the matter.
Complaint has been entered
against them this morning and
the Gun men hope to see some new
faces on that end of the line.

THE MONDAY AIK CHURN
Is a success and has no equal. 228 3m
PLAIN POINTERS.
Written for the Light by Observer.
Vulgarity seems to be on the in-
crease among the “young bloods.”
* ♦ ♦
As nearly every article is more
or less adulterated why not mix
some gum arable with truth ?
People would perhaps “stick” to it
then.
* * *
It is to be lamented that the
more civilization is advancing the
more inspectors we need to protect
the public from the soulless food
adulterers who have more regard
for an ill-gained dollar than for the
lives of their fellowmen.
♦ ♦ *
Many untimely deaths can be
traced to the use of adulterated
milk unhealthy meat decayed
vegetables etc. Even the rigidity
of the inspectors seems to be
powerless to check this inhuman
crime. Is there no remedy for this
most shameful evil? Shall the
lives of our good citizens always be
endangered by the greedy money
grabbers Messrs. Skinner & Co.?
* * ♦
Man is really a queer animal
and his boundless desire for
wealth put him on a level below
the brute Instinct. The practice of
adulterating human food in order
to make a larger profit is a sav-
age crime beyond comprehension.
» * *
I have often given this matter
serious thought and deep study.
Would any of the intelligent read-
readers of the Light kindly follow
up this very important subject on
a broader scale? I should like to
see this thoroughly discussed.
