Centhal Tkxas and Northwestern Rail-
way V8. thk State—From Ellis county.
Opinion by Willie, C. J. This is a suit by the
appellees to recover the penalty of #1000 be-
cause of the failure of appellants to make the
annual report to the comptroller as required
by law. Appellant specially excepted to the
petition because it fa! s to set out the failure
of the company to certify the number and
amount of dividends made, reciting: in the
place of the word made, the word paid."
Held, without considering the supposed dif-
ference between the " making " and the " pay.
ini{" of a dividend, it is sufficient to sav that
the petition alleged a failure and refusal by
defendant to make the report required by the
statute and a violation, in this respect, of the
law. The violated statute is judicially known
to the court and any attempted recital variant
from its literal language, can not change its
provisions, or relieve defendant from a breach
of duty imposed by it and so alleged in the po
tition." Excuses for failing to make ho report
in time can not avail. The statute is peremp-
tory and nothing but a compliance with it can
relieve the company f. um its penalties. As
appellant bought out the Waxahachie Tap
with full knowledge that the report would be
due in a few days, it, in effect, assumed the
duty of making the report, and can not avail
itself of its own neglect. In a case like this, it
is proper to charge the cos-ts to the losing
party. Affirmed
Effixger vs. Cates—From Burnet county.
Opinion by Delany, J., adopted. This is a case
of trespass to try title to certain property
originally belonging to appellant, but sold
under execution and bought by appellee. The
validity of the judgment and the regularity of
the sale are not questioned, but appellee claims
the property as his homestead. The proof
shows that appellant married in 1872 or 1873,
and soon afterward purchased the property.
The property was never inclosed or improved
in any way whatever. Plaintiff owned and
occupied other property. He insists, however,
that he used these lots as a homestead. The
only use which he made of the lots was that
"he occasionally staked his horse there when
lie could not find better grass elsewhere." His
.vife also had a cow and a calf, and the latter
»as occasionally staked on the property. Held,
the homestead claim is of no avail. Affirmed.
Myers and Eakle v.-. Mary c. Heath—
from Tarrant county. Opinion by Watts, J.,
idopted. Where appellee instituted suit for
the recovery of certain claims alleged to be
due her in her separate right, and afterward
amended her petition and set up the death of
her husband and her own qualification as sur-
viving widow, and claimed a recovery of the
claims as the community property of herself
and husband. Held, by the amendment
wherein appellee changed the capacity from
that in which she had brought the suit, a new
cause of action was asserted which wouid be
subject to the defense of limitation. [Mell-
henny vs. Lee, 43 Tex., 210.] Excluding from
computation the time which elapsed between
the death of her husband and the qualification
of appellee as survivor in community, the en-
tire claim apjtears to have been barred by
limitation when the amended petition was
filed. Appellant's special exceptions on that
ground should have been sustained. Reversed
and remanded.
Nix & Story vs. Caldwell et al.—From
Caldwell county. Opinion by Watts, J.,
adopted. In suits for the foreclosure of mort-
gages and other liens, all subsequent encum-
brances of whose claims notice is given before
the filing of the suit, either by [>essession or
registration, must be made parties, otherwise
they will not be affected in any manner by
such foreclosure. In this State a mortgage is
so far considered an incident to the debt which
it wasgiven to secure, that if the debt is barred
by the statute of limitations, the creditor is
left without remedy upon the mortgage. Lim-
itation does not extinguish the debt, and the
debtor may ordinarily waive the bur. If be
fails to astert is as a defense, either by special
exception or plea, he will be considered as bav
ing waived its benefit. The defense, or plea,
of the statute o' limitations is a personal privi-
lege ot the debtor, which he may assert or
waive at his election. However, if he has
parted with his interest in property which
might be affected by the defense of limita-
tion, either by absolute conveyance or mort
gage, the person standing in the place of the
debtor, with respect to the particular pro-
perty, may avail himself of that defense to
protect his right to the same. After the exe-
cution of a subsequent mortgage, the mort-
gagor could not renew the subsequent barred
debtsc as to affect the subsequent mortgagee's
l ight to, or interest in, the property. Af-
firmed.
Loeb vs. L. & H. Blum—From Limestone
county. Opinion by Delany, J., adopted.
Where A levied u writ of attachment upo'i b's
goods, and B filed his affidavit and bond to try
the right of property, and afterward C seized
the goods, sold th»m under execution against
Band appropriated the proceeds, >.mi B al-
leged these facts in his petition as a ground of
his claim for damages against C. Held, the
court properly sustained special exceptions to
the part of the petition setting up these facts,
whether'be goods were in custodia legis or
not.. Where the court ill framing a charge
•appears to have held that since the act of Nc:
vember 3, 1879, an insolvent debtor can nr
make a valid transfer of his property to on
crediti r in payment of aslebt, to the exclusi in
•of other creditors, though it be done in entire
ly good faith. Held, the reverse of this chat rf
is the '"ort'ect law. Reversed and rematd -d
Meyers etal. vs. Heath—Fro.n Tarrant
•county. Opinion by \\ alls, J., adopted I
a suit having for its object the accountin,
among the partners of a dissolved firm, eac
of the co-partners is individually liable to the
other# for whatever amount is found to be
owing by him. unless it has otherwise been
agreed among them. Where it was four
that- both M. & B. were indebted to the firm
but there was no finding of the respective
amounts owing bv each, and no joint liabiii
\ upon the part of M. & B. is alleged, held,
judgment decreeing a joint liability was erro
neous. Where the proof showed" that the
money i vested in the partnership was the
proceeds (if property inherited by the wife
ironi her grandparents while she lived in an
other State, and there are neither allegations
nor proof as to the law in such Slate. Held, in
such cases the pi esumption will be indulged
that the same rules of law prevail in such
■State as here, as the rights of the parties must
be determined by the laws of this State. Ite
versed and remanded.
Montgomery vs. Etheridoeet al.—Fr
Williamson county. This cause comes before
the court upon a motion to affirm on certificate,
and the same having been examined and
found containing the necessary caption, final
judgment, motion for new trial, notice of ap-
peal, anpeal bond, bill of costs and certificat
all in due and proper form as lequiredby law
the motion is granted and the case affirmed
without reference to the merits. Affirmed.
Todd et al. vs. Masterson et al.—Fron
Burnet county. Opinion by Stayton, J. The
land in controversy was granted to Win. C. M.
Baker, who, as a citizen soldier, fell at the
Alamo. It was issued under the act of Decern
her 21, 1837, (P. I)., art. 4059) and the sole
question passed upon is, was the land granted
by this certificate subject to be placed in the
Administrator's hands for the payment of debts
due by I lie estate of the testator, or was it
such as vested at once in the heirs upon the
death of the receiver. Held, it was not sub-
ject to the debts of the testator. Affirmed.
[Note.—The opinion in the above case is
very lengthy and exhaustive and a more
lengthy syllabus than the judge's conclusions
could not well be niven with'
much space.—ed.]
t iiiirI of \|i|>enl«,
Thrash et al. vs, the State From Hood
county. Opinion by White, 1'. J. Where a
recognizance is taken in open court, it w ill be
presumed that the penal sum named in the re
cognizance was the sum fixed by the court,
whether such statement is explicitly made, or
not, in the recognizance itself. "Theft of
bacon of the value of $27 ' is au offense
against the laws of this State. The time and
place of appearance named in the bond is "shall
•veil and truly make his personal appearance
before the honorable District Court in and for
Hood county, now in session at the court-
house thereof, in the town of (Jranbury, and
there remain from day to day," etc. Held,
sufficient. Affirmed.
Vivian vs. the State—From Dimmit
county. Opinion by Willson, J. Where the
bail bond is executed before indictment found,
the rule is that the Ixiud is not vitiated be-
cause it lails to name the precise offense of
.vbich the principal therein was subsequently
indicted. It is sufficient if it name some I
offense against the law of the State. Where
>he offense tiamed is theft of animals. " held '
sufficient. Where the bond is conditioned1
that the accused '• shall be and appear before
the honorable District Court on the first day
of the next term thereof, to lie begun and
iiolden at the court-house in Carrizo Springs,
in said county, on, etc.," and there is no county
nutu -d in the liond, but the accused was ar
rested by virtue of a warrant issued by "J. II.
Sweeten, J. P., Pr. No. 1, D. C." Held, in-
sufficient; it can not be conjectured that D. C.
county means Dimmit county. Nor can we
take judicial notice that " Currizo Springs"
are in Dimmit county. Because the bail bond
is insufficient, the judgment is reversed und the
cause dismissed.
Missot in-i'acific Railway vs. Hewitt—
From Dallasoounty. Un motion to affirm on
certificate. The transcript made au exhibit to
the motion contains th'3 proper papers in due
and perfect form; the caption, final judgment,
notice of appeal given, appeal bond and certi-
ficate of the clerk as required by the statute
and rules of this court, and the motion is
granted. Affirmed. .
Martin et al. vs. the State—From Erath
county. Opinion by Willson, J, One 1). was
convicted of swindling under an indictment
charging him with theft. Upon appeal to this
court he entered into recognizance with ap-
pellants as his sureties conditional to appear
before the District Court of Erath county and
abide the judgment of this court in said case.
This court utliruiing that judgment, and D.
failing to appear, the recognizance was for-
feited and appellants cited to show cause, etc.
Appellants answered the scire facias by gen-
eral denial alone. Upon the trial the State,
over objections, read the indictment, charg
ing D. with theft and his conviction there-
under for swindling. Held, not error. It was
not necessary for the State to read tbese pa-
pers in evidence; it was only necessary for the
State to show the recognizance and the judg-
ment insi declaring it forfeited. Yet, as the
judgment of affirmance in D.'s case is
the law of the case, there was no
error in the court permitting the indictment
and judgment to be read. Besides, defendant
and his sureties in a proceeding upon a for-
feited bail bond or recognizance can not be
permitted to inquire into the validity of the
indictment, or the judgment of conviction,
nor can the sureties be heard to question the
guilt of their principal. Affirmed.
Ray vs. the State—From Parker county.
Opinion by White, P. J. A recogni/.an 'e con-
ditioned that defendant "shall well and truly
make his personal appearance before the hon-
orable District Court of Parker county, Texas,
now in session at the court-house thereof, ill
the town of Weatherford, and here remain
from day to day," etc. Held, to be a strict com
pliance with article 289, sub-division 4, C. C.
P. Where at one term of thi court judgment
was rendered against, the principal and in
favor of another, and this judgment is set
aside, and at the next term the death of the
surety in whose favor the judgment before
was rendered, is suggested, and the cose as to
him is dismissed, field, in scire facias cases
this can be done, and even where one surety
has not been served the case may be dismissed
as to him and judgment taken against the
others. Affirmed.
Collins vs. the State—From Callahan
county. Opinion by Wrhite, P. J. Upon a
former appeal this case was reversed because
the judgment nisi ujion which this judgment
is based, was not in conformity with the law.
[12 Ct. App. 336], Upon this trial new cita-
tions were issued, and the district attorney
filed a motion to amend the original judgment
nisi by inserting the words prescribed by
art. 441 C. C. P. Appellant accepted service
of this motion, but no service was had on the
principal. Appellant objected to this motion:
1. "Said motion is in the nature of a writ
of error, coram no bis, for the correction of
matters of fact in the judgment, while it ap-
pears from the face of said motion that the
correction or amendment sought to be made is
a matter of law, and this court has nj jurisdic-
tion to correct, at a subsequent term, the ju-
dicial errors of a former term, but the proper
remedy for such a correction is a pvisory or
appellate tribunal." 2. " Because sHid motion
had not been served on * * the principal
obligor in the bail bond, and he has no no-
tice of it." 3. "Because the Court of Ap-
peals * * has decided that this very
judgment nisi which the motion seeks to
amend is invalid, null and void, and therefore
there is now no such valid and legal judgment
nisi in this case as this court can amend or cor-
rect." By these objections two questions are
presented: 1. Could the judgment be
amended as done? 2. If so, could such amend-
ment be made without notice Jo the principal
obligor in the bond? Held, under the rule
laid down in Lorana vs. Marchbanks (12 Texas
Law Review, 44) and Freeman on Judgments
(3d eii.), section 71, the first question must be
amended in the affirmative. 2. The second
objection was well taken, and should have
been sustained. Reversed and remanded.
Picket et al. vs. the State—From Jack
county. This case being a scire facias case,
is governed by the same rules as civil cases are
governed by. And, as it appears to this court
that there is no appearance for the appellant
in this court, and no briefs filed herein, nor
anything to indicate that any briefs were filed
in the court below, the case is dismissed for
want of prosecution. Dismissed.

house was carried some distance and so vio-
lently thrown down as to be driven somo dis-
tance into the grouud. The only damage done
nearer town was the destruction of the north
gate of Mr. Miles's pasture. At this point the
storm seems to have left the earth. The clouds,
as seen from Sau Angola, seemed to fly upward
to an elevation of a few hundred feet, and
swept over the town in dark, whirling masses.

Guard: There have been excellent rains
throughout our county, nnd the prospect for a
heavy crop in Goliad county was never better.
I he corn crop especially is very promising.
Already several fields are in full silk and
tassel, and will m ike a good yield without anv
more rain. Cotton is rather backward, having
suffered considerable from the late cold spell.
There is also some complaint among farmers
of the cut worms, which have caused many to
plant their entire cottdu crop over. Notwith-
standing these hindrances the people are hope
ful of a large crop. Thei e has been a much
larg -r acreage planted in cotton this year than
last, and if a fair price can be had Goliad
county will be in a prosperous condition this
fall. Cattle are fat on the ranga—grass and
water being plentiful.

Some months ago I bought a bottle of Dr. J
Bradfield's Femal« Regulator, and used it fn my
family with great satisfaction. I have recom-
mended it to three familias, and they have found ii
(o be just what is claimed for it. The females who j
have used it are now in perfect health and able to
attend to their household duli-is.
