Pass. The United States cutter John A. Dix
will accompany hor to the Rio Grande and
return by tnis port.
Change In lite Weatlier.
The change in the weather has oxcrcised a
reviving influence on the people, and the ap-
pearance of the streets indicates a healrt.y
reaction, both from this source and the gene-
ral resumption of traffic. The cool breeze ia
a welcome visitor, ospeclallv aftor the sultry
season of the early part of the week.

red-atriped stockings, gaiter thoes, and white

cept she thinks It is near the cenu tri y.
The Mai Feat Association.
Hugo Brosig, Esq., President of the Mai
Feat Association, reports that on Thursday
he distributed about seven hundred dollars
among the sufferers by the storm, and yester-
day distributed considerable more. The
amount in the hands of the association is
getting very small, and those who are really
in wane, if any such remain, should apply at
once for assistance.
Favorable Signs.
One of the indications that the coming sea-
son will be a prosperous one is the fact that
all of the private schools are well attended
and people seem imbued with the idea that
times will be more easy as the season ad-
vances. Although It is a month bofore the
medical college open?, already several stu-
dents are in the city and the Dran of the Fac-
ulty reports that he has received more let-
ters than usual from applicants for admission.
Personal.
Mr. T. A. Gary has returned to the city.
Mr. K. R. Wells, of Houston, is in the city.
Mr. C. G. Vogel, Secre-ary of the Texas Kdi
torial and Press Association, was in the city
voeterday. Mr. Vogel has the thanks of the
rs'Kwsfora pamphlet containing the charter,
constitution and by laws of the association,
together with the proceedings of the second
annual convention, held at Dallas, Septem-
ber 10 and 11, 1874, and of the third annual
couvention, held at Houston, May 11, l«i and
13, 1875. It embraces aUo a history of the
Texas Press.
Nature Asserting Her Supremacy.
That's a hie head for a little item, but the
feelings of our citizens who have line ilower
gardens can not be realized by those who
have none, now that the effects of tho storm
are over, and plants begin to come forth once
more decked almost in the livery of spring.
Some shrubs are dead, can not be revived,
but another week will bring about a freshness
in gardens that was not expected by the most
sanguine. This proves the hasty estimates
en lost shrubbery and flowers all at fault, and,
after all. the most severe loss will be in trees
which, though still alive and flourishing, are
greatly dlsflgnred by tho wrenching of boughs
and by being forced down to the ground.
Entertainment at Turner flail.
A fair audlenoe assembled at Turner Hall
last evening to enjoy the exhibition of youth-
ful skill and talent. The programme was
v ry nearly a repetition of the one presented
Wednesday evening. Professor Carl Mora,
whose name was observed on the programme
in several places last evening for instrumen-
tal pieces, was present, but the arrange-
ments were such that the piano could not be
placed conveniently upon tho stage. The au-
dience was disappointed of coureo, but it
must be remembered that professional musi-
cians have their reputation at stake and vith
them scenic and stage effects aro among the
first considerations, not so much for any ef-
fect as for the fltness of the thiug.
Master Johnny Sharp made tho opening ad-
dress, after which there was a duet, followed
by the Pyramid of Beauty, which embraced
about a dozen sweet little girls and boys of
all ages from two to twelve years
Cinderella was given in roally good style
for the youth of thssc taking part. The cast
of characters is herewith given in full, as
all deserve mention:
Lord Easygoing (an old man)
Master Clarence Hand
Lady Disdain (hiu wife) Miss Ida Forbes
Cinderella (Lord Esygoing's daughter,
Fanny Johnson
Charlotte ( (ian(?hters Madie Hand
Annaoelle > aaug^ers, uabrilla Reybaud
Prince Amour ltodny Gary
Fontasia (the Fairy Godmother;
Susie Lancton
King Nelson Shields
^ueen Emma Shields
Bullytin Mastor Serwood Sabin
Courtiers, &c.
The song by Madame Delaoussy was well
received, and Mastor Rodney Gary recited
the Conquered Banner" very acceptably.
Master Clarence Meche, ten years of age,
gave a few exhibitions of nis skill on the vio-
lin, which won for the little fellow morited
applauee.
The velocipede race crowncd the evening's
entertainment.
To the 8«me ladies who managed the exor-
cises of Wednesday evening so successfully
the credit is due of bringing the performance
to such a favorable denouement last night.
Mr. J. M. Forshey lent his assistance in the
management of the stage.
Cuts his Throat.
A DAItKEKPKR ATTEMPTS SUICIDE -IS STILL LIVING
Yesterday afternoon about 1 o'clock a man
named Joe. Huberty, who was employed as a
bar-tender by Mr. ThlesfeMt on Pot»toflice,
near Center, cut his throat while in tho roar
of the Theatre Comique.
He was first observed by a newsboy sawing
away at h a throat, and when the persons in
tho Comique saloon were notitled, they came
out, but Huberty continued cutting and say-
ing. " Let mo die." Ho fell in his own gore,
ami commenced to pasp for breath.
Mr. Thiesfeldt. his old employer, came on
summons, and Huberty recognizing hirn held
out his band, trying at the time to speak. But
the wind escaped from his mouth with a hiss-
ing sound, and nothing that could be under-
stood was uttered.
Drs. Penny and Ganahl were promptly on
hand, and upon examining tho wound fonnd
that ho had partly covered tho windpipe, be-
tides cutting the external jugular vein.
They Immediately commenced to sew the
wound up, which in the meantime bled pro-
fusely, and the crowd becoming thick the air
was almost shut off from tho gasping unfortu-
nate.
Home brandy was administered, and this
seemed to revive him for a moment.
Huberty is said to have been drinking
heavily lately, and yesterday attempted
to drown himself by jumping from tho U. S.
revenue cutter Dix, and would have done so
but for the prompt assistance renderod him
bv one Murphy, a sailor of tho Rio Bravo.
Murphy saw Huberty jump Into the water, and
Immediately plunged in after him with all his
clothes on. and succeeded in buoying him up
till the sailors of the Dix cast him a lino.
When Huberty was brought upon tho wharf,
ho said he intended to kill himself, anyhow,
some other way. After his wounds were
dressed he was carried on a stretcher into the
Comique Saloon, where the inmates of that
place kindly watched him until a dray came
to carry him to the City Hospital, where he
now lies in a fair way for recovery. When he
recovered power of speech he said, sneering-
ly, to the doctors, *do all you can if you
want to," as though Intimating that he meant
to die next time, sure.
The would-be suicide has light eye*, mus-
taches, is broad shouldered, has dark hair,
and is unmarried. He used a small pocket
knife.
The Police Imbroglio.
THE FORCE IXDIONANT AT THE EDICT OP THE
MAYOR.
The police muddle has assumed a serious
aspect, and bids fair to do much to affect tho
efficiency of that part of the city government.
It seems that tho officers are very much dis-
satisfied with the amount of pay which they
receive, and complain that at the present val-
uation of city scrip they are unable to sup-
port themselves and families.
The proposed raise of their pav which has
been just pronounced illegal would have been
a groat assistance, but now thoy are unable
to meet their monthly bills.
Thursday night at the time of tho general
assembling of tho officers at the sta-
tion an Informal meeting was held,
at which twenty-three officers were pres-
ent, and a committee of four was ap-
pointed to draft a petition to the City Council
asking that body for relief either by paying
them in greenbacks or by any other modo
which the Council might think proper to
adopt, so long as the men should receive the
moneved equivalent of ninety dollars per
month, the committee to report such petition
tit an adjourned meeting to be held at the
stitiori at six o'clock Friday morning.
Although it was understood and agreed by
all present that the action of the meeting
should bo kept secret, there M as ono leaky
individual who reported the whole affair to
tho Mayor, stating, as tho Mayor says, that
tho men would enforce thoir demands by re-
signing in a body should their petition be
disregarded.
Upon hearing this his Honor forthwith sent
word to the police station that he would sus-
pend every man*who signed any such petition,
and further wrote the advertisement which
appeared in Friday morning's News.
Thursday n'ght officers Willis and Benison
tendered their resignation to the Chief of Po-
lice in the presence of the Mayor, in conse-
quence of words which passed between them at
that time: and the appearance of the adver-
tisement alluded to so enraged other mem-
bers of the force that officers Jackson, Brown,
Loary and Pither, of the day force, and offi-
cers Gordon, Moffat and White, of the night
force, resigned Friday morning. The result
of thoso resignations is that there were but
three men for duty Friday.
Late last night there had been no addition-
al resignations of tho police, and the places
of those who have resigned have been filled
by new appointments. The full number,
twenty-two officers, left the station last night
and went on duty on tho various beats. No
more trouble is now expected.
Mayor Fulton stated to a reporter last
night that he had received ono hundred appli-
cations for positions on the police force, and
two hundred applications for work on the
8tieets.
Yom Kip pur.
SERVICES AT TIIE SYNAGOGUE LAST
EVENING.
Laf»t night began the most solemn of the
fasts of the Jewish year. The Day of Atone-
ment. on which occasion all true Israelites
throughout the entire world make their peace
with Jehovah, first having forgiven all their
enemies and having laid aside all worldly
thoughts. They repair to their synagogues
and pray for the repose of their dead and for
continued blessings during the coming year.
At 0 o'clock last evening the services at the
Synagoguo began and continued until 8
o'clock. Tho edifice was crowded, and among
those present were many prominent profes-
sors of other faiths. The music, which is
always a feature at the Synagogue, was, as
usual, superb, and the following solos and
concerted pieces were sung, besides the regu-
lar chants:
"As Pant3 the Heait."
*• Flee as a Bird."
'Immortality."
"There is a Homo,"
"Guide Me, Thou Great Jehovah."
The sermon of Rov. Dr. Blum was on the
immortality of tho soul, Dr. Blum taking as
his text Isaiah 57th chapter and lGth verse:
"From me emanates the life, and the soul I
have created it." Starting with the proposi-
tion that death means immortality, he pro-
ceeded in the most logical manner to demon-
strate the immortality of the soul, and not-
ing the fact that every nation and creed pos-
sessed the fundamental idea of a futuro state,
ho, with that charming manner for which he
is so justly celebrated, spoke with all the
fervor of a believer and the smoothness of a
poet, of the relations of life to death and the
sustaining faith of the Jewish creed. As a
finished effort the sermon was exemplary,
and held tho congregation with unabated in-
terest to its close.
The services to-day will commence at 10 a.
m , and will be of the most interesting char-
acter. Tho music by the choir will embrace
many gems.
The subject of tho morning sermon will be
"Grief." The afternoon service will be in
German,
The Orthodox Congregation of B'Nai Jeshu-
run assembled at tneir synagoguo. the old
Mercantile Library building or the corner of
Church and Twenty-second streets, at 6:30
p. m. yesterday. The services are all conduct-
ed in German and Hebrew. The male portion
of the congregation wear their hats, and in
addition during tho fast of tho Atonement,
also wear the Talis, a part of their shroud, to
remind them of the bitter cup of death, of
which all must sooner or later drink. The
Orthodox Hebrews differ from their reformed
brethren iu allowing no music during the ser-
vices,
Tho new Rabbi, Rev. Dr. Schwartz, is very
highly spokeu of by the congregation as an
erudite scholar and finished elocutionist.
This synagogue was also crowded by tho.=e
who could understand German, and the
services were of the most impressive charac-
ter, the solemn chants and intoned scriptural
readings lending a charm to the ceremonials,
oven to one who could not understand the
language.
Tiai£ CO UK (fi.
Justices" Courts.
At Justice Johnson's no civil or criminal
cases were tiied, though sue affidavit was
filed which will probablv be tried to-day.
Applications for relief are very few, the
ether organizations and private charity hav-
ing relieved all the more pressing needs of
the sufferers.
At Justice Brosig's no civil case was tried;
the only criminal case being the State vs.
Louise Hamilton, charged with assault and
battery on Mandy Peters bv striking her on
her shoulders and back with a stick, and do-
ing her serious bodily injury. This case was
ready for trial, but wiser counsels prevailed,
and the complaint was withdrawn.
To day is court day in this precinct, and
the civil docket will be called promptly at 10
o'clock this morning.
At Justice Hancock's no criminal eases
were tried, the time being wholly occupied
with civil business.
Justice Hancock reports that he had but
two applications for relief yesterday, both of
which he attended to.
Recorder's Court.
Leslie Thompson, Recorder; E. O'C. Macln-
erney, Clerk; a. H. Willie, Attorney.
Pen Harris, charged with disorderly con-
duct, and also with assaulting and striking C.
A. Woodapple, was discharged, the proof be-
ing that although some one had assaulted and
beaten the complainant, Harris was not the
one who did it, but. on the contrary, was him-
self struck by Woodapple with a heavy otick,
and would have been badly injured had he
not warded off tho blow with his arm.
Jessie McClain, ono of the beer girls em-
ployed at tho Academy of Music, was arrested
on the charge of being drunk and disorderly,
and placed in tho coop, but was let out by
some one before tho time for the court to
meet this morning, and neglected to make
her appearance before the court according to
promise. A warrant for her arrest was issued,
and she will be tried to-morrcw morning.
Who let her out ?
Lizzie Hnwkley, chargod with disorderly
conduct, was tried. The evidence showed
that the dusky damsel had been guilty of
using language in the market, with a number
of men in hoaring, such as wa* calculated to
create a disturbance, and she was conse-
quently fined S3 and costs.
John Berlocher, charged with a violation
of the flro ordinance, had his case continued
unt il Monday morning, at 10 o'clock. A jury
has been summoned for that hour, and the
trial promises to bo an important ono.
J. L. McCauley (not the officer) was tried by
a jury on the chargo of entering the house
aud searching the premises of A. Bock with-
out his permission. The acoused offered no
evidence in his own behalf, merely making a
statement to the jury.
The evidence showed that Mr. McCauley
went to tho hoarding house of Mr. Bock
between the hours of one and two o'clock
Thursday morning and waked up tho lodgers
by his boistorous and abusive language ag
well as insisting on entering the rooms of the
boarders and searching for his wife, who, -he
suspected, had secreted herself there. The
jury took the case and retired to their room,
returning in a short time with a verdict of
guilty ami assessing tho fine at ten dollars,
l'he jury assigned their pay to the prisoner.
The judge further required the prisoner to
enter into a bond in the sum of $200 to keep
the peace for twelve months.
Always Ahead.—Evans & Co. are in
receipt of the first buckwheat of the sea-
Ron. Look in and pet a package.
Attention.—There will be a meeting
of the old Sons of Temperance this even-
ing at 8 o'clock, for the purpose of organ-
izing this good old order, at the rooms of
the Young Men's Christian Association,
over Mason's corner. All who are de-
sirous of connecting themselves with the
order are respectfully invited to attend.
A Blessing to Mothers.—Mrs. Wins
low's Soothing Syrup, for all diseases
with which children are afllicted, is a
certain remedy. It relieves the child
from pain, regulates the stomach and
bowe's, cures wind colic, corrects acidity,
and, by giving rest and health to the
child, comforts the mother.
More than half of our mental troubles
in this woild arise from a disordered
stomach. Tho digestive organs being
out of order, the blood is vitiated and
the whole system becomes weakened and
debilitated. It is less trouble to keep the
system in order, than to put it right after
it has become deranged by disease. To
keep up the healthy tone of the digestive
organs we know of nothing so good and
effective as the celebrated Home Stomach
Bitters.

mestic cigars will be sold for the next

Galvewton Free library.
Galveston, Oct. 8, 1875.
Eds. News—Excuse my intruding in your
columns, but I will be brief. I believe when
the library was founded it was fer the object
of inducing workingmen to forsake bar-rooms
and sudh other places, and enjoy its benefit.
If I mistake not, the hour at night to which it
was to be kept open, by resolution of the
Board of Aldermen, was 9 p. m. How is it
that, without their sanction, the closing hour
is; now changed to 7 p. m?—thus most effect-
ually closing its doors against workingmen,
who quit their daily labors at 0 o'clock.
As no laborers have the morning beDfiets,
let me suggest that the evening hours be from
0 to 0 o'clock, Sundays excepted.

TnE Los Angeles Herald says bee cul-
ture is spreading rapidly in California.
At the present rate of increase it is esti-
mated that there will be in four years
one million stands of bees in that and
the two adjoining counties, which will
produce annually 100,000,000 pounds of
honey, worth $20,000,000, which is more
than the value of the sugar and molasse*
crop of Louisiana, Texas and Florida
combined.

LIVER PILLS,
FOIl THE CTJKB OP
Liter Complaint,
DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE.
Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
PAIN in the right side, under the
edge of the ribs, increase on pres.
sure; sometimes the pain is in the
left side; the patient is rarely able
to lie on the left side; sometimes
the pain is felt under the shoulder-
blade, and it frequently extends to
the top of the shoulder, and is some-
times mistaken for a rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach is affected
with loss of appetite and sickness;
the bowels in general are costive,
sometimes alternative with lax; the
head is troubled with pain, accom-
panied with a dull, heavy sensation
in the back part. There is generally
a considerable loss of memory, ac-
companied with a painful sensation
of having left undone something
which ought to have been done. A
slight, dry cough is sometimes an at-
tendant. The patient complains of
weariness and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
find he complains of a prickly sensa-
tion of the skin ; his spirits are low ;
and although he is satisfied that exer-
cise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he dis-
trusts every remedy. Several of the
above symptoms attend the disease,
but-cases have occurred where few
of them existed, yet examination of
the body, after death, has shown the
liver to have been extensively de-
ranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
Dr. C. M'Lane's Liver Pills, in
cases of Ague and Fever, when
taken with Quinine, are productive
of the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory to
or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who are afflictcd with this
disease to give them a fair trial.
P. s. Dealers and Physicians ordering from
otl»era than Fleming Bros, will do well to write
tlK'ir orders distinctly, and take voiie ltd Dr.
C. M'Lane's Liver Pills, prepared by Fleming
Bros., Pittsburgh, Pa., the market being full of
base imitations. To those wishing to give them a
trial, we will forward per mail, poet-paid, to any
part of tho United States ; ono box of Pills for
twelve three-cent postage stamps, or one vial of
Vermifuge for fourteen three-cent Btampa. All
orders from Canada must bo accompauied by
twenty cents extra.
DR. C. M'LANE'S
