THE LATE EX-GOV. Rt'SSELL,
His I ntimely Loss and the Lo**on« of
His Brief and llluMtrioii* Career.
Lenox, Mass.. July 22.-To The News:
This is a time that the country can ill af-
ford to lose any of its great men; true, a
crisis will a ways arouse men to confront
it, but still better is it to have good men
and true read to fend off any such impend-
ing danger.
One such good knight was the late Will-
iam E. Russell, one time for several terms
governor of the commonwealth of Massa-
chusetts, In the midst of the claims that
republics are ungrateful and that capacity
for great things goes unheeded in default
of stirring events to develop it, it is pleas-
ant to note that Mr. Russell was beloved
and honored by his state and nation, not no
much for what he had done, as for what j
he had given promise of being able to do.
As governor of Massachusetts he showed :
great abilities, but it was not as executive {
officer of a brilliant, yet small and politi-
cally unimportant state that he made his J
national reputation. It was from his sterl- j
ing good sense., sound morals and political ;
acumen, so well instanced in his last una-
vailing stand against free silver at Chicago,
that he interested the land at large and
it was thus (hat he bade fair some time
to be a candidate for president. As a man,
he was one of Massachusetts most beloved
citizen?. Every flag in the state has been
half masted and thousands of people tiled
last Monday through the Cambridge city
hall, where by the great kindness of his
family he was allowed to lie in state.
He was a loyal Harvard man of '77 and
at all games he was sure to be present
and divided the cheering with the team,
the appearance of the young face under
the well known silk hat being the signal
for an outbur*'.*„^£*applause. which rivaled
that elicited by tne "crimson legs" them-
scleves.
Without regard to political relations, he
is mourned by everyone; buildings in Bos-
ton and Cambridge are draped In black, in-
cluding the offices of the Journal, one of
the leading republican dailies.
Just now when the souls of the free rII-
verites are making such advances, even in
the heart of the gold country, it is hard
to lose one of the strongest champions of
the honor of our country; it is not known
who is to take his place.
Still harder is it for the world of politics
to lose a man against whose uprightness
never has been cast a slur by friend or
foe.
This year Masaschusetts has lost Gov-
ernor Frederick C. Greenhalge, republican,
and ex-Governor William E. Russell, demo-
crat. V
These two men, politicians of different
creeds, died without blot or stain, cham-
pions, sans peur et sans reproche; while
this republic can point to two such men as
these brought forth under her political in-
stitutions to be leaders of the people, we
need neither be afraid of the flings of mon-
archists nor the upheavals of socialists nor
of the frothing of anarchists.
The good and great make far less stir
in the world and live sometimes unknown,
but their power is not in words nor their
strength in things on the surface.

SIMS' REUNION.
Antc-I!ellum l)ayn Commemorated by
Muster, anil Ex-Slave.,
Italy, Tex., July 25.—The fourth annual
Sinjs reunion was held at the old Sims
grove, three miles northwest of Italy, to-
day. Fully 3000 people were In attendance.
It was a reunion of the old slaves and
the descendants of the old Sims families.
The Sims were among the first settlers of
Ellis county and brought their slaves with
them. They are originally from Virginia,
thj<nce drifting to Texas in 1851 and 1852.
The Sims were very kind masters and
their slaves were so attached to them
that when freed they refused to leave and
remained with their masters. A few of
the younger ones have drifted away, but
the old slaves, Gilbert, Ben. Henry, Aunt
Hanna Anderson. Sarah Hardeman. Mn-
riah Frio and others still remain about
the old homestead and community. They
are well known all over Ellis and adjoin-
ing counties and bear excellent characters.
To-day as they mingled with their young
masters and friends their eyes sparkled
and their tongues were loosed in manv
tender memories of the "good ole times
befo' de wah." Perhaps there is no other
reunion like that of to-day anywhere. The
good will and friendliness exhibited by
both black and white was a strong re-
minder of the former cordial relations of
master and slave. The white members
of the Sims family in attendance to-day
were Ntx Sims, now in his 90th year;
Flnkey Sims, aged 70: Mrs. Virginia
Forrest, aged GD: Mrs. Francis Edmund-
son; Mr. and Mrs. Cunningham and their
descendants. John Sims, a grandson of
John P. Sims, and Hob Sims, about 70
years old, were also familiar personages.
To-day It was quite touching to see the
esteem In which the old slaves and their
young masters and relations held each
other. Nearly everybody there among the
whites was a Sims or relation of the Sims,
while nearly every negro on the grounds,
and two-thirds of those In attendance
were negroes, claimed relationship with
the old slaves. There was no regular
programme, they having met to commem-
orate the old home piace. There wort1
■peeches from a number of the ex-slaves
and they were listened to with interest by
all. Prayer was offered hy Aaron James.
Anderson Brock, who lives in Waco and
who Is 70 years old. made tint opening
spcech. He recounted the drifting of the
Sims from Virginia to Texas and followed
them up to the present. When tie conclud-
ed dinner was announced and it was a
magnificent one. In the afternoon speeches
were made by Prof. K. L. Blaakshear of
the Hempstead colored normal. Elder Cof-
fee, Billy Burncy. Dr. Roobeck and others.
Anderson Brock In a touching address dis-
missed the assembly.

WEATHER POINTERS.
Ohio River Rising;.
Cincinnati, O., July 26,-Though the sky
is clear here to-night, the change of
temperature, rushing the mercury high up
in the eighties, causes apprehension of
more rain and an accession to the flood in
the Ohio. Reports from all parts above
here on the Ohio river as far as Wheeling
show that the stream is rising. At Cin-
cinnati at 10 o'clock to-night the river
stood S5 feet 1 inch above low water,
having risen 13 inches in four hours, or
8^4 inches per hour. The rate of rise, more-
over. is increasing hourly.
There seems to be no doubt that the
Ohio River railway company in the vi-
cinity of Parkersburg and the Baltimore
and Ohio from Parkersburg east, have
about resumed traftlc. Great forces have
been employed repairing washouts in Ohio,
and it Is fair to presume that all the roads
embarrassed by the floods win resume
to-morrow, except those among the buti
washouts In the Muskingum valley.
Wind Storm.
Detroit, Mich., July 26 —A special from
Homer, Mich., says: A terrible wind storm
struck this village tills evening. Roofs
were lifted, houses partly blown away,
barns toppled over and over half of the
fine maple trees about town were blown
down. The plate glass windows in I.Inn ft
Co.'s store were broken. The worst part
P. the cyclone seemed to have passed a
little to the northwest of the town, and
111 any of the finest farm houses in this vi-
cinity lay In its path. There were several
narrow escapes of persons caught out in
the storm, but as yet no one is reported in-
jured.
InteiiNe Heat at Memphis.
Memphis, Tenn., July 26.—The heat for
the last two days has been intense. The
mercury ranged near the 100 mark. One
fatality was reported to the police to-dav;
John A. Cooper was overcome by the ex-
cessive heat and died.
Hot Wind at NaNhvllle.
Nashville, Tenn., July 28.—For several
■lays a hot wind has prevailed, reaching H5
degrees to-day, the hottest of the season
and the hottest 26th of July for five years'
No sunstrokes were reported.
Hot In Little Hook.
Little Rock, Ark., July 26,-The weather
for the past few days has been the hottest
experienced In Little Rock In several vears
im® J^m?rVit'ter .closel>; approaching the
100 mark dally. A number of fatal pros-
nations have occurred.
The British steamship Headlands, Cap-
tain O. R. Holman, which sailed from
Table Bay, near Cape Town, Africa, on June
27, arrived yesterday, and will be detained
at quarantine the usual five days. She
came all the way in ballast and required
one day less than a month to make the
trip.
The Headlands is to ,T. Merrow & Co.,
who will load her out for Orthwein & Co.
with wheat and about 10(H) bales of cotton.
She i3 a vessel of 1933 tons net.
Hurricane Warnings.
The weather bureau at Washington has
issued the following important circular:
For the purpose of giving: warning of the
approach of tropical hurricanes (and also
of those extremely severe and dangerous
storms which sometimes pass across the
lake region and north Atlantic coast) the
weather bureau has adopted a special sig-
nal called the hurricane signal, consisting
of two red (lags with black centers, dis-
played one above the other.
This signal will be displayed at all
weather bureau offices and wind signal dis-
play stations on the Atlantic and gulf
coasts and the great lakes, and also at nu-
merous other points at sea and lake ports
and along the coasts mentioned. (No dis-
tinctive night signal will be used.)
In a number of instances arrangements
have been made with steamship and steam-
boat lines to display this signal on their
vessels. Special efforts have been put forth
to provide for the dissemination of these
warnings in sections beyond the roach of
telegraphic communication along the south
Atlantic, and gulf coasts and the adjacent
islands, and to this end arrangements have
been made in many of the most exposed
and thickly settled of these localities
whereby tugs, pilot boats, revenue cutters
or other steam vessels will pass through
the waters in the vicinity displaying the
hurricane signal by day and tiring rockets
\>y night, and blowing their whistles to at-
tract attention thereto. Among the districts
referred to may be mentioned Galveston
bay and vicinity, Mobile-bay and vicinitv,
the west coast of Florida from Tampa bay
south, and the coasts, islands and bays of
Virginia, North and South Carolina and
Georgia. The flag signals will also be dis-
played from the Frying Pan shoals light-
ship off the North Carolina coast (warn-
ings being conveyed thither by a tug from
Southport, N. C\), the Cross Rip lightship
in Nantucket sound, and the lightships
Sandy Hook and Scotland, off New York.
Among the steamship lines displaying the
flag signal may be mentioned the Southern
Pacific, Pacific Mail, Cromwell, Munson,
Mallory, Plant and Ward lines.
This circular is published in order that
the information regarding the hurricane
signals may be as widely distributed as
possible among the interests and in the re-
gions concerned, and all persons to whom
it may come are requested to aid in spread-
ing the intelligence it contains as far as
may be in their power. All residents in the
localities referred to herein are enjoined to
be especially alert during the hurricane
season, and particularly whenever the
weather is threatening, to note the signals
when given, and It is hoped that all who
are so fortunate as to receive the warning
by this means will be willing to make some
sacrifice In order to give as many as possi-
ble the benefit of it. It is recommended
that in the localities where these storms
are liable to cause the greatest destruction
some arrangement be made beforehand by
the citizens themselves for the distribution
of the warnings to points beyond the reach
of telegraphic communication or beyond
sight and sound of the signals before de-
scribed. This may be done by means of
couriers on horseback, displaying a signal
from some high point, firing rockets, or
such other simple methods as may suggest
themselves. The weather bureau will be
glad to assist in any such arrangement by
delivering the warnings, whenever it can
be done by telegraph or other means at its
command, to some designated point for dis-
tribution.
Owners and masters of vessels who are
willing to co-operate with the bureau in
this humane service by displaying the sig-
nals on their vessels, or \ising them to dis-
tribute warnings in given localities, are re-
quested to communicate with the nearest
weather bureau official or with this office.
The rockets ust d by the bureau in this
connection will be red meteor rockets,
which ascend to the height of 300 or 400
feet, and emit a brilliant red star which
burns to the ground or the water's edge.
Rockets similar to these and suitable for
use by citizens who may wish to organize a
system of warnings by means of rocket
stations may be purchased of Pain's fire-
works company, 55 Fulton street, New
York, or of their agents in nearly all south-
ern cities, for $1.50 per dozen.
Capeliu With Shipwrecked Mariner*.
New Orleans Picayune, July 26.
The British steamship Capella, Captain
William Lang, from Liverpool, via Colon.
Belize. Honduras and Mexican ports, with
cargo for this port and in transit, con-
signed to Alfred LeBlanc. has arrived at
the Picayune tier, after the usual deten-
tion at Quarantine. She reports having
sailed from Liverpool June 11, had fine
weather out to Colon, making the run in
Hi days and 17 hours, and heavy rains
around the ports, followed by tine weather
from Progreso. The Capella brought the
following passengers, being the crew of the
wrecked bark River Clyde, who will be sent
home by the British consul: John Owens,
Geo. D. Walch, O. Williams, G. Jones. P.
Daily, J. Bagnloh, J. Pritehard. C. Walm-
sley. C. Hansen, J. Burgess and J. R. Wil-
liam. The River Clyde went ashore on
lighthouse reef, fifty miles east of Belize.
Honduras, at midnight, about June 15.
during a thick, misty rain, and became a
total Toss. She was en route from Rosario
for Belize to load with logwood for Europe.
The captain is still at Belize settling the
affairs of the wrecked vessel, he having
been exonorated from all blame by a court
of inquiry held at Belize.
A llell lluoy for Mobile llay.
A special from Washington July 24 says
notice has )>een given by the lighthouse
board that on August 15 an experimental
bell buoy, painted red. will be established
on the east side of the entrance to the
main ship channel into Mobile bay. The
buoy will bo located off the southern ex-
tremity of southeast shoal, about one and
one-half nautical miles south-southeast
half east (magnetic) from Sand island light-
house and about 150 feet to the westward
of the present position of knoll buoy No. 2,
red, second-class nun. which will be discon-
tinued on the same date. Exact bearings
for the bell buoy will be given when it
shall have been placed. The sailing di-
rections for entering the channel will not
be affected by this change in buoys.
The Concho IM ot Aground.
Telegrams were sent out from Key West
to southern paper* Friday night announc-
ing the grounding of the steamship Concho
seven miles southwest of Key West at 3
p. m. on that day. According to a tele-
gram received by Captain Sawyer the ves-
sel left Key West at 3 a. m. for the east,
twelve hours ahead of the reported ground-
ing. So it would appear that there was
nothing in the story. He also received
telegrams from the New York office about
the general business of the company, but
no reference to any grounding was made.
He savs he would probably have been in-
formed had anything of the kind hap-
pened. Anyhow the Concho is almost at
New York by this time.

The carload of melons arrived last week,

melons is that while the interiors are rich,
juicy and sweet, the shells possess a tough-
ness almost akin to that of the eocoanut
when hardened 1n the sun. Knowing this,
several recipients of melons have been
careful to preserve the shells and are pre-
paring to put them to a use that will not
only preserve them us souvenirs but at the
same time make them handy to have about
the house. Charlie Cooper, the baggage
master, has carefully scooped out his melon
and, mounting it on legs, proposes to use it

turn his* car into a bedroom during stay-
overs at the lake. C. J. Howard, assistant
superintendent of the Burlington, has taken
the other half of the melon, and expects to
mount it on sticks and use it as a canopy
which will shelter him from the sun as he
sits on the lawn watching for the tiring of
the sunset gun as a signal for him to go to
bed.
Did Not Get the Prize Money.
Austin, Tex., July 26.—Captain Roberdeau
of the Governor's guard returned from
Tyler to-day without the prize money. It
seems the fruit palace management is $2000
behind and is unable to honor the check
for $1000 given Captain Roberdeau the day
he left Tyler. A committee was appointed
there yesterday and to-morrow it will try
to raise the money by private subscription.
If that falls the guard will hardly be paid
their prize.
FIRST BALES.
At Burton.
Burton, Washington Co., Tex., July 25.—
The first bale of new cotton arrived in
town this morning, about ten days earlier
than last year. It was raised by F. Maas
on his own place, about two and a half
miles north of here, classed good middling
and weighed 540 pounds. It was sold by
him to Ed Schatz. a prominent merchant
of this town, for 6>4c. and a barrel of flour
as a premium. The bale was subsequently
purchased by Charles Weeren, the banker
of this town.
At Keudleton.
Kendleton, Fort Bend Co.. Tex., July 25.—
To The News: The first bale of new cotton
for Fort Bend was shipped from here to-day.
The bale was raised by Ben Guess, a
prominent colored farmer, and is shipped
by him to W. L. Moodv & Co.. Galveston.
The bale weighs 641 pounds, classes strict
middling. In ten days the crop will be
moving freely, and promises a tine yield.

HAD NO SPECIAL INTEREST.
Ordinance of May 4, He Says. Would
W ork an l unece**ary Hardship on
Sonic Ov. uer* of Buildings.
At the last meeting of the city council
Alderman Norman made-inquiries about an
ordinance requiring the escapes on build-
ings. He said the ordinance had been in-
troduced last August, had been reported,
amended, returned to the committee, and
was still there. lie did not wish to cast
any reflections upon the ordinance commit-
tee, but he thought that the ordinance
should be reported upon at once. There
were several buildings that should be pro-
vided with fire escapes without delay, and
he specially mentioned the cotton mill, with
its 500 employes. Alderman Webber replied
to Alderman Norman, stating that the
chamber of commerce lawyer. Mr. Male-
vinsky, had asked for the ordinance in
order to make certain amendments, and
had not returned it. Alderman Norman in-
timated that the delay was intentional. Al-
derman Webber asked until the next regu-
lar meeting to make a final report.
Mr. Malevinsky was in Austin the greater
part of last week. Upon his return he was
called upon by a representative of The
News and asked about ihe amendment. Mr.
Malevinsky .-aid thai he had >eeii in The
News the statement of Ald< . man Webber
that he was the chamber of commerce
lawyer. "1 am simply one oi several at-
torneys who are members ot the chamber
of commerce,' said he, "and this statement
that I am the special attorney ot that or-
ganization is untrue. At a meeting of the
chamber about six weeks ago the question
of fire escapes came up. it was thought
by the chamber that there were several
buildings in the city, among them the tele-
phone building and the Bali-lfutchings
building, where compliance >vith the ordi-
nance, as drawn up would not only be
needless, but an unnecessary hardship. A
committee, consisting of John Scaly, H. C.
Ripley and myself, was appointed to draw-
up an amendment. I have no special in-
terest in the matter. Being an attorney,
the legal phraseology of the amendment
fell upon me. The committee presented a
petition to the council requesting certain
amendments. You can haw the petition if
you wish," and he went to his desk and
got the following petition:
"To the Honorable City Council of the
City of Galveston. The undersigned, con-
stituting a committee appointed by the
chamber of commerce of the city of Gai-
veston to present to your honorable body
a petition praying lor the modiilcation of
an ordinance enacted by your honorable
body on the 4th day of May, 1896, entitled
'An ordinance regulating the erection of
fire escapes in the city of Galveston,' re-
spectfully beg leave to submit the follow-
ing:
"The.chamber of commerce, recognizing
the necessity of some enactment of this
nature in a city the size of Galveston, but
believing that such a law should be framed
with a view of granting the property hold-
ers in the city some protection, as well as
protecting the safety and life of its citi-
zens, suggest to your honorable body that
an amendment to said ordinance be framed
and passed by your honorable body cm-
bodying the following features:
"1. Providing for some tribunal or com-
mittee (and it is suggested that the lire
committee of the city council or the chief
of police and the chief of the lire depart-
ment. acting together, would be, perhaps,
the proper persons to constitute such tri-
bunal or committee), with the power to
grant exemptions from t.he terms of this
ordinance, as enacted, lor the following
specific reasons: It is submitted that there
are a great many three-story buildings in
Galveston in which more than ten persons
are employed or occupied by more than ten
persons that have sufficient exits to make
them absolutely sale against any casualty
by lire.
"2. There are a great many three-story
buildings in Galveston recently erected or
now in the course of erection which arc ab-
solutely lire proof, and in addition thereto
have such exits supplied as would admit of
a ready vacation by all occupants In event
of fire.
"We believe, however, that the burden of
showing the safety of said buildings
should be upon the property owners, and
We therefore recommend that the council
create some tribunal to act upon the pe-
tition of properly owners when presented.
Said tribunal to be given the power of ex-
empting these buildings from the erection
of tire escapes that are deemed sufficiently
safe.
"The chamber of commerce, in presenting
this petition, desire to emphasize that this
application Is not presented In any spirit
of criticism of said enactment, but solely
for the purpose of according justice to all
parties."
This petition was signed by the committee
above noted.
City Attorney R. Waverley Smith is of the
opinion that such an amendment as pro-
posed by the chamber of commerce will
nullify the ordinance. However, the mat-
ter is expected to be settled next Monday.
Wherever Malaria Exi*t*.
The bilious are its certain prey. In inter-
mittent and remittent fever, dumb ague and
ague cake, the liver is always seriously af-
fected, and th? blood contaminated with
bile. One of the chief reasons why Hostet-
ter's Stomach Bitters is such a sure de-
fense against chills and fever and every
form of malarial disease, is that it does
away with the liability to the disease, by
reforming irregularity of the biliary organ
in advance of the arrival of the season when
the disease is prevalent. There is no finer
fortifying preparative for those about visit-
ing or emigrating to a locality where the
miasma taint exists. There Is no certain
immunity from disease in an endemic or ep-
idemic form, to be secured by the use of the
average 'onies and anti-spasmjdics. But
where quinine faite the Bitters succeed both
in preventing and curing. Moreover, it re-
moves every vestige of dyspepsia, and over-
comes constipation, rheumatism, inactivity
of the kidneys and bladder, and tranquilizers
and strengthens the nervous system.
