A POLITICAL VALEDICTORY.
Mayor Fulton'n Kulogy Lpon UU l'uldlc Ittvord.
Yreterdny a Nitws reporter was permitted
to make some extracts from a letter written
by Mayor li. Ij. Fulton, of this olty, to Gen-
eral X. B. Debi ay, at Austin, nnd as Mayor
Fulton Is not a candidate for ro-electirm h9
speaks with mueh emphasis uoon tha subject
of his political record. A portion of the letter
reads as follows; " Iu relation to your com-
plimentary allusion to my undertaking a cau-
vass for a third term of the mayoralty of
Galveston, I can conscientiously say, that I
could with propriety do so, without the
slightest misgivings as to the result
But 1 have arcbieved during my present term,
what 1 have heretofore failed to accomplish,
to nit: overcome the prejudices of the mmey
prwer of Galveston. In doinzso I have-not
knowingly yielded a single political or oQdll
conviction, modified one single item of my
political creed or proved false to any funda-
mental principle that underlies the fl ail struc-
ture of my public life. It is only as age and
experience may render ns more conservative,
that i have changed in nty political aud otll
rial methods, it at ull. But there is more
?leisure, it ic said, in pursuit than possession,
have always known that I was
entitled to more than my political
enemies were willing to concede. That
in real, genuine, unfaltering manhood
and ii tegrity of purpose, 1 was equ.il to the
best of those who sought to belittle my preten-
tions. 1 should never have rested satisfied
thort of a recognition of t his face. I won ic
fiom my tutor in my school boy day9; from
my general (X. B. Debrai) in the tierce ordeal
of war; from Willard Richardson, founder of
Tiib Galvkstoh Nkws, as a faithful cnrotii-
cler and editorial commentator of eveuts, in
newspaper life; and now from the people, via*
and poor, great and small, white and colore 1,
learned and unlearned, In the everyday walks
of private life, and in my official conduct as
mayor of this great city of Galveston. I have,
to to 6peak, conquered the good will of this
little island world, and my restless
Ambition now pricks me on to broader fields,
where I encounter other obstacles to
overcome. Defoat has no terrors for me.
' To lose with high endeavor is to win,
And they I.i t fail wlio build success on sla.'
"But ther. I- did not start out to moralize. I
know that, as a rule, it is better to let well
enough alone. I might go much further aud
do a great deal worse than I am now doing—
with a fair prospect of continuing, if I so ile-
tire, for tome time to come. Ic Is not unlikely
that I am making a mistake, but we are oaly
tinifrht by experience an} how—from the cradle
to the grave."

Carrie twain in the Little Joker.
Mits Cnrrie Swain, a very dashing soubrette
actress, very much after the style of LotCi,
madt her first appearance last night before a
Galveston audience, and it was a compliment
that few stars receive in being called before
the curtain after each act. The audience wis
enthusiastic and perfectly carried away with
Mits Swain's impersonation of the Little
Joker, a character written expressly for
her and one of her own stage crea-
tions. The play, as written for Miss
Swain, is, in many respects, a history
of her private life, adorned and embellished,
of course, for dramatic effect, hence her con
ception of the character of tho heroine is pa
culiarly true to the spirit of the drama. She
is a hard-working, painstaking and eon-cien
tious artiste, and in her line has few, if any,
equals. The story of the play is interesting,
and the specialty features are so nicely inter-
woven that they do not in the least mar the
consistency of the plot. It is a live-act drama,
and illustrates several interesting phases of
life. M iss Swain, as the newsboy and bootblack
in the second act presented the street gammin
with a remarkable naturalness, and her sing-
ing and dancing were features that never fail
to secure rounds of applause. She is ona of
the few females that has ever been seen to
turn sumersaults upon the stage, and probably
one of the few who has ever attempted this
acrobatic fest. cihe is surrounded by a good
company, and, on the whole, the attraction is
a very taking one. A matinee will be given
this evening, and the final performance to-
night.

Wake thy sleeping children, Lord,

Shall the earth redeemed arise,
And the fair millennial morrow
Dawn with opal-tinted skies.

Send the gospel's joyful sound
Unto earth's remotest hound."

SI. mutual aid association.
A noble effort to provide a home for the
family of any itinerant minister who is a
member of tue association, in case of his
death.
Tbis association bas beneficiary and honorary
members. Each beneficiary pays $10 to tha
treasurer upon the death of any beneficiary,
and each honorary member pays the amount
which he promises to the treasurer of the
association for tbe benefit of tbe heirs of the
deciased member.
Thus the itinerant ministers and the lay
members of the church are making a sure and
economical provision by which the families of
their deceased laborers shall have a home when
their bead Is taken away by death.
The churcb is waking up to this tender and
delicate work, which appeals to the justice as
well as the mercy of all her people.
rev. james m. wesson. •
The Rev. James M. Wesson, aged sixty-five,
was born in the city of London, Eng. Decem-
ber, 1 MO, be landed at Galveston island. He
was then a member but not a minister of tha
M. E. Church. In 1843 he was received on
trial in tbe Texas conference. From that
time, forty-one years, he has b->en in the active
work of the ministry. In 1848 9 he wa, pastor
of Hjland chapel (where now stands the Har-
mony hall), this city, and again 1860 1. He
has been tbe presiding elder of Galveston,
Huntsville and Chappell Hill districts. He has
served in Austin, Huntsville and Cbappall
Hill stations and on various circuits.
conference notbs.
The bishop urged the importance of having
tho conference records properly kept. Over
in Alabama he found one conference whose
secretary used a lead pencil instead of pen and
ink.
It is noticeable that Revs. H. M. Sears and
E. H. Smith, newly appointed pastors to St.
John end St. James churches, «tand a leetla
higher than any of the other ministers in tha
conference. Just a few inches, however.
Rev. J. T. Murrish and wife, of the West
Texas conference, while on their way to their
new home at Corpus Christi, spent a few days
attending the conference exercises bare.
Rev. C. W. Thomas, of Eagle Lake, had a
delightful experience during the past week,
attending the conference and seeing the sights.
Rev, J. P. Cbilders nnd sou, T. V. Childers,
were guests at the residence of Colonel Ham-
mer.
llr. George E. Clothier had the honor of
entertaining Revs. S. J. Hawkins and G. R.
Brice.
The Impression obtains that; the bishop will
form a district-of tbe presiding elders, and
appoint Rev. P. I1. Norwood presiding elder of
the district. What will yeu do with Brother
8. C. Mickel, the handsomest one of 'em all i
Dr. J. G. Walker, of the West Texas con-
ference, end a member of the board of publi-
cation, spent a pleasant week in the city, the
guest, of Layman L. Blayloek. The doctor oc-
cupies a warm place in the hearts of the breth-
ren of bis own conference, and has made many
friends In the Texas conference.
One of the amusing incidents of the confer-
ence is really too good to keep. It was at the
front door of St. John church. Much specula-
tion was being indulged in as to who would be
appointed to St. John as pastor, when one of
the brethren said that no one could tell till the
bishop announced the fact. One of Galveston's
ever ready little urchins was listening, when
he unwittingly inquired:
" Mister, w bo's runnin' for it ?"
Tbe overseer of a Kentucky farm said there
was no use in the English language for the
word " sui," because it never did a hog any
good. A vibitor to the conference says the
word "valedictory" is unnecessary, because
you say "salutatory" when you come in and
why not "sail out atory" when you go out?
Rev. H. M. Du Bose, the new appointee
for Shearn church, Houston, has placed The
News reporter under obligations for appre-
ciated assistance rendered during the confer-
ence. Thanks are also tendered to Rev. Dr.
J. A. Murphy for similar courtesies.
Ilev. J. W. Whipple, of Austin, expresses
himself as being elegantly entertained at the
delightful home of Mrs. Goorge Ball, Broad-
way and Fourteenth.
Ihe conference has adjourned after expo
riencing a most delightful session. A large
number of tbe ministers and delegates de-
parted for their homes 011 the afternoon and
evening trains. Whether or not the bishops'
appointments will prove satisfactory to all
concerned remains to ba seen. Anyway,"as
tbe bishop would remark, the appointments
are only for a year!

the failure is sa!d to have resulted from in-
ability to renew loans on securities which had
previously been accepted.
Assignee Peet, of the suspended banking
firm of George Opdyke& Co., said to-day that
it was not tuch a failure as should cause any
great degree of uneasiness, and one that, aside
Irom tbe old name of tbe house, would com-
mand comparatively little attention. E. F. M.

tbat the total liabilities would not exceed
$400,000, of which nearly $200,909 is secured.

ence to protection and opposition to free trade
