THELUMBER DEALERS
Called Meeting of the Texas and
Louisiana Association in
Session.
TO AGREE UPON RATES,
Only Manufacturers in Attendance—President
Rice Resigns—New Members Admitted,
Reports of Officers.
X
Houston, Tex., May 2.—The members of
the Texas and Louisiana lumber dealers'
Association held a special called meeting
to-day at Turner hall to attend to impor-
tant business. The meeting was devoted
to the manufacturers' interest and was
one of the most important meetings held
by the association for several years. Dur-
ing the session to-day none but manufac-
turing lumbermen were admitted to the
meeting.
The meeting was called to order by
Colonel J. S. Rice, the president, who con-
gratulated the members upon the large at-
tendance present, and he said that as he
"was holding a state office now he could
not serve the association any longer as
president.
A motion was made to invite all manu-
facturers of lumber to join the associa-
tion.
The following were admitted to member-
chip: Anderson & Cameron of Saron, the
Cameron lumber mills of Carmona, the
Orange lumber company, the L>. R. "Win-
gate lumber company, Sam Allen and A.
Gilmer of Orruige, Olive, Sternenberg &
Co., Lodi lumber company, Emporia lum-
ber company, Bancroft lumber company.
Treasurer G. H. Mallum made his report,
showing the financial transactions of the
association for tne past year, which ex-
hibited a balance on hand of $484.49. Ap-
proved and tiled,
A motion was adopted reducing the as-
sessment upon cut of mill l'rom 50 cents
to 25 cents per 100,000 feet, and the secre-
tary was authorized to draw on all mem-
bers for the amount of their approximate
cut, in case they failed to remit dues by
the 15th of the month.
Mr. Mallum of the committee on statis-
tics made a report, showing that the cut
in what is known as the Southern Pacific
mill district for 1892 was 34U, 000.000 feet; for
1893, 362,000,000 feet; for 1894 , 322,000,000 feet.
Secretary R. R Kelley made the follow-
ing report: "The transactions of the sec-
retary's ofllce since the meeting in this
city on August 21 of last year have been
(mainly of a routine character. In addi-
tion to the correspondence with members
relating chiefly to the collection and com-
pilation of statistics and their distribution
among manufacturers, the office has de-
veloped into something of an intelligence
bureau for manufacturers and others in
other states and sections seeking informa-
tion regarding the lumber and limber in-
terests within the territory embraced by
this association, and to which all such in-
quiries have been answered as fully as the
Information at hand would permit. The
Inability of the secretary to give complete
and exact statements at all times nave
•been keenly felt. This fact, suggests the
need of collecting and arranging in com-
pact form more detailed data which, while
conferring upon the members direct and
immediate pecuniary benefits scarcely per-
ceptible, would exhibit the va*tness of this
industry and enhance immeasurably the
commercial standing of those engaged
therein. The best informed amonx the
Humber manufacturers in Texas and Louis-
iana could hardlv give more than a vague
approximation of the investments and val-
ues of sawmill properties, including all
necessary appliances and the aggregate
amount of stumpage subject to the con-
trol of established mills. There seems, in-
deed. to be a feeling of utter indifference
regarding this feature of their business
prevalent among even the largest and
wealthiest and most extensive of manu-
facturers. Each and all appear to be en-
grossed with their individual interests and
^heedless of the interests of their neighbors,
apparently forgetful of the fact that the
interests of all the mills, in certain groups
at least, are so closely interwoven that all
prosper alike or suffer alike. Evidence is
present to testify to this truth.
"Rut while information of the character
described is desirable and valuable to all
connected with the Industry, the secretarr
realizes the difficulties that lie in the way
of its collection, which can be done only
by th# consent and co-ope ration of those
concerned. Requests of simple statements
of cut and stock go unheeded*; blank slips
and addressed and stamped envelopes are
disdainfully cast into the waste basket.
What a contrast is observable in the course
of cotton factors, provision and grain deal-
ers and those engaged in nearly all other
3ines of business. The large sums paid for
the maintenance of the various exchanges
prove their value. Yet lumber manufac-
turers with millions invested persistently
refuse to admit that statistics relating to
their business have a value.
"In further explanation of the transac-
tions of this office I will say that activity
(has been more manifest outside than with-
in association lines. I have attended meet-
ings of manufacturers at Camden, Ark.,
Dallas. Houston. Lake Charles, Orange and
Beaumont, at each point matters affecting
the manufacturing industry being consid-
ered. With the results of these meetings—
or rather the absence of results, so far as
Texas and southwest Louisiana are con-
cerned—you are no doubt fully acquainted.
These meetings were not association gath-
erings, but the matters discussed related
entirely to the? manufacturing interest, and
on sudh occasion a fair proportion of the
members of this organization were pres-
ent.
"Notwithstanding the fact that forty-one
mill firms have paid the membership's fee,
the largest number remitting dues for any
imonth was thirty. This number paid dues
for the months of January, March, April
and May, 1894. In June twentv-nine paid
dues; in July twenty-seven; in August only
seventeen, while for September the number
■was but twelve and in October only tdght
Ten paid dues for November and a like
number for December. In June of this
year there were only nine, nine for Feb-
ruary and so far but six for March. The
falling off in the receipt of dues for Au-
gust, 1R94, and subsequent months is due
to a feeling that the association practically
ceased its existence at the August meeting
in this city. This idea was expressed in a
(letter written the secretary by a member
3n October last. He said: 'In view of the
solemn fact that the association practi-
cally went to pieces at the meeting in
Houston, I did not think there would be
any more dues to pay.' His Idea was prev-
alent to a large extent, and the absence of
any fixity -of purpose or settled policy
tended only to confirm that opinion. There
were other members, however, who, feel-
ing the need of organization, and hoping
for unity in dealing with evils, which unde-
niably exist in the trade, persisted in con-
tinuing the body, and have been prompt
In forwarding their dues. Compulsion can
not be exercised.
"The question of dues brings me to a
statement of the financial condition ol the
association. In August last th-< treasurer
reported a balance on hand of $771.11. since
•whinh time the receipts have been $15 from
membership Zees and $475.83 from monthly
dues, making a total of $1261.94. The dis-
bursements have been $877 4"., as tfhown by
vouchers submitted for examination by the
•directors, leaving a balance in bank of
1484.19.
"The secretary refrains from making
suggestions, feeling assured that the man-
ufacturers have assembled here with vvt-11
matured ideas and with the purpose of ap-
plying those tdeas to measurae for the
common interest."
The WL-Uroad committbe reported as fol-
low 8 :
whereas. In the development of the yel-
low pine frndiwury of the south, the ir.any-
i footurer* have put fortia extra exertions to
broaden tihe field of yellow pine consump-
tion, and by perseverance, heavy expense,
and ofttimert tsa< rifioe of revenue, have suc-
ceeded in gaining a foothold fen almost
every Important market in 'the country,
flti the face of the most strenuou.- opposi-
tion from the manufacturers of white pine,
end with the further disadvantage of hav-
ing to pay 6 cents p^r 100 pounds more
tfreig»ht to Missouri river points and a large
territory tributary thereto; and
Whereas, the white pine mills are not
luafled with this 5 cents per luO pounds
•iffsreatiai. but o4aim they must,
greater concessions In rates, so as to es-
tablish a deadline beyond which yellow
pine ean not go: and
Whereas, certain railroads have recently
madt> a reduction in their rates from white
pine producing centers, which threatens to
shut the yellow pine mills out of a large
portion rtf valuable territory, in which ihvy
naw formerly fcmrfl a market for their
product; therefore: be it
Resolved: 1. That the railroads handling
yellow pine from tie south be requested to
take 'immediate cognizance of this reduc-
tion by the white pine roads, and insist
that the former rates on white pine to
competitive territory be restored; and in
the event t'ln- wilifcte pine roads refuse to
restore the rates,, then the yellow pine
roads aiv most earnestly requested to
make a similar reduction in rotes on yel-
low pine, in order that the yellow pine
mills may not be deprived of the business
they have built up in the territory named
by tin- arbitrary action of the roads hand-
ling while pine.
2. That white pine has always enjoyed
lower rates to tihe middle western territory
than yellow pine, but we are not prepared
to acknowledge the absolute equity of
such a condition, and we feel that the day
and date is near at hand when this differ-
ence should be obliterated and yellow pine
given an open field with equal rates to all
important markets, in order that it may
take its proper place in t'hw commerce of
the country and secure the recognition and
support which its intrinsic merits abun-
dantly warrant.
3. That the railroads handling yellow
pine from the south be requested to inves-
tigate the following reasons why yellow
pine should have equal rates per 100 pounds
to competitive territory as white pine:
First, 1000 feet of yellow pine will weigh
25 per cent more than 1000 feet of white
pine, thus giving white pine 25 per cent
advantage in freight on the same rate per
100 pounds. Second, white pine sells at
from .10 to 100 per cent, according to grade,
more than yellow pine in competitive mar-
kets. Third, it does not, or should not,
cost any more to manufacture and market
white pine than yellow pine, and the only
excess in cost of white pine is the matter
of stumpage, which is fully offset in the
difference in price that white pine aver-
ages to the manufacturer; and they still
have the advantage of 25 per cent differ-
ence in freight on the same rate per 100
pounds on account of their lumber being
that much lighter than yellow pine.
4. That a copy of these resolutions be
forwarded to the traffic managers of all
railroads handling yellow pine, with the
request that they take the matter up at
the earliest practicable moment, and not
only have the recent reduction in white pine
rates restored, or reduce yellow pine rates
to correspond; but to pursue the matter
still further and insist upon yellow pine
having the same rate per 100 pounds, to
all important markets, as may be allowed
white pine. Respectfully submitted,

The meeting next took a recess and the
members of the association present ad-
journed to the library room of Turner hall,
where Mr. William Vallus, the courteous
custodian of the hall, had prepared an ap-
petizing luncheon, consisting of cold deli-
cacies, Which were partaken of by the lum-
bermen, after which they spent an hour at
the bowling alley playing the popular bowl-
ing game.
AFTERNOON PROCEEDINGS.
The meeting was called to order.
The question came up of admission of
double enders. M. T. Jones said, although
a double ender, he would work in harmony
with the association
Mr. Hackney moved that yard-millmen
be invited to join. Carried, and the follow-
ing new members were enrolled: Anderson
& Cameron, Trinity; Cameron lumber mills;
Orange lumber company, Orange; Wingate
lumber company, Orange; Sam Allen,
Houston; A. Gilmer, Orange; Olive, Stern'
enberg & Co., Olive; Lodi lumber company,
Lodi: Emporia lumber company, Houston,
and Bancroft lumber company, Orange.
A communication was read from A. L,
Clarke, president of the Tyler car and lum-
ber company, regretting inability to attend,
but assuring the association that he would
act with them In all they did.
Resolved, that lumber dealers are re-
quested to abstain from selling or quoting
on the following classes of bills on ma-
terial: For oil mills, compresses, steam pow-
er elevators, street and other railroads,
government bills, wharf companies and for-
eign bridge companies, where the bills
amount to 100,000 feet or more; and further,
that we will ship only to legitimate deal-
ers. By legitimate dealer is meant one
who carries a stock commensurate with the
size of the town in which he is operating.
The foregoing is in accordance with the
agreement at Dallas in 1894. Adopted.
1). M. Angle offered the following, which
was adopted:
Whereas, the Arkansas and Missouri as-
sociation have asked this association to
co-operate with them in regard to any ad-
vance in prices; therefore be it
Resolved, that it is the sense of this as-
sociation that they be requested to cur-
tail their output to two-thirds time.
On motion of Guy H. Mallam a committee
of three was appointed to confer with the
lumbermen's association of Texas on mat-
ters of mutual interest.
W. A. Fletcher moved that the chair ap-
point a committee of three to define a
mixed car and to state what the price
should be. Carried, and Carter, Moore and
Mallam were appointed. They brought in
the following report, which was unani-
mously adopted:
Resolved, that on orders for mixed cars
an extra price of $1 per 1000 be charged. By
mixed cars is meant a car containing more
than six kinds of items, meaning six dif-
ferent kinds, different grades, different
sizes or different widths or different
lengths. But on finishing lumber, siding,
D. & M. lumber only the different sizes
and grades will be considered in determin-
ing mixed cars, assorted lengths being ad-
missible. For house bills $3 per 1000 extra
to be charged.
Resolved, that this take effeot May 1,
1895, and be given a prominent place in'all
printed or other price lists.
On motion of Percy Allen a committee of
five was appointed to confer with all man-
ufacturers now in the city and request
that they remain over until to-morrow and
arrange a price list. The committee was
Percy Allen. A. F. Sharpe, S. F. Carter,
Joe A. Rent ley and G. A. Sternenberg
G. Bedell Moore offered a resolution ex-
pressing appreciation of the interest shown
in this meeting by the Arkansas and Mis-
souri association in sending a delegation
to Houston to encourage the Texas and
Louisiana manufacturers' association in
efforts to obtain better prices for yellow
pine lumber, and thanking the association
and Messrs. Foulke and Long for their
presence. Unanimously carried.
Adjourned until 10 o'clock to-morrow.
ROUGH AND DRESSED NOTES.
Mr. R. E. Kelley, the genial secretary of
the association, came in from Beaumont
with his usual fund of Jokes and ready
humor, and is foremost among the lumber-
man.
Mr. William Bowen-, representing the
Northwestern Lumbermen's Journal of Chi-
cago, and Mr. W. G. Boarman, represent-
ing the Lumber Trade Journal of New Or-
leans. were prominent among the lumber
dealers.
The big feature of this meeting, it seems,
will occur to-morrow, which is the making
of rates. This was delayed on account of
the non-arrival of the Arkansas delegation,
who are expected to arrive to-night, and
at to-morrow's meeting rates will be in-
troduced and permanently made.
The officers and special committees of
th«- Lumbermen's association of Texas will
hold a special meeting here to-morrow.
Among those present are President Grib-
. Secretary Drake, Captain Charles H.
Moore of Galveston, Captain George Locke
of Westlake, Mr. W. E. Ramsey of Lake
Charles, G. W. Owens of Oak Cliff. W. B.
Brazelton of Waco and others. Their ses-
sion will be for the purpose of general dis-
cussion and to map out the work of the
association for tht year as laid out by the
late meeting at Fort Worth.
A meeting was held at the Hutchins
house to-day of the insurance committee
of the Lumbermen's association of Texas.
W. B. Brazelton of Waco, E. H. Lingo of
Denison. W. A. Fletcher of Beaumont. G.
Bedell Moore of San Antonio. J. E. Whlte-
eelle of Corslcana. H. £>. Gribble of Hous*
ton and O. ,3. Drake of Austin were in at-
tendance. They r« present *ome $5,000,000
of insurance and are considering the ad-
visability of organizing an independent
company. After discussion they adjourned
to moot to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock.

It Is a well known fact among the mem-
bers of the Texas and Louisiana lumber
dealers' association that at the last meet-
ing at Fort Worth the electric lights went
out during their most important session,
and unluckily for them Mr. E. C. Sedbohm,
the official lighter (and his opals, which
are usually used for lighting purposes
when necessary) was not able to attend
the meeting. This time, though, the mem-
bers have prepared themselves by having
Mr. Seebohm on hand, and if the Houston
electric or other lights fall they are fixed
for the emergency.

DECOHATIuN IJAY AT FLORESVILLE.
Floresville, Wilson Co., Tex., May 2.—
Decoration day was appropriately observed
in Floresville yesterday, May 1. The ladies
had prepared a large number of wreaths
and bouquets of choice flowers the day be-
fore, which were taken to the district court
room about 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
A. large crowd of veterans, ladies and
young people of both sexes assembled by 2
o'clock.
The orator for the occasion, T. P. Morris,
esq., of Stockdale, was Introduced by W.
C. Kroeger of San Antonio. Mr. Morris de-
livered a fine address, which was attentive-
ly listened to,speaking about three-quarters
of an hour.
After the address Wilson County camp
No. 2i'5, United Confederate Veterans,
formed in front of the court house, under
direction of the marshal of the day. W. S.
Sutherland. In the rear of the veterans
were a large number of young people on
foot, followed by many carriages filled with
people.
Arriving at the cemetery Rev. R. C. Gar-
rison made a few appropriate remarks and
offered a fervent prayer, after which the
graves of deceased confederate soldiers
were decorated with wreaths and flowers.
The graves of Others who had relatives
present, as well as others who were known
in this life, were also decorated. Many
silent prayers were offered and many tears
were shed by those who stood around the
last resting places of the dear departed.
Altogether the day was one long to be
remembered. There were not as many
present as on a similar occasion last year
because it was only decided about a week
ago to observe May 1 as the time for the
decoration.
DECORATION DAY AT MARL IN.
Marlin, Falls Co., Tex., May 2.—Decora-
tion day was observed here yesterday In
an appropriate manner by a large number
of citizens, and Willis L. Lang camp, U.

TEXAS CITY.
Texas City, Galveston Co., Tex., May 2.—
To-day is the day that Texas City cele-
brates. At least once a week the streets
are filled with visitors. Old, young, male
and female, from all walks of life, gather
here Thursdays to have a good time and
invest a little money in a paying enter-
prise. Over 500 came to-day on the free
excursions. Not all from Houston, either,
for many Galveston business men were no-
ticed among the party. At about 12 o'clock
an interesting group of gentlem'en, repre-
senting $16,000,000 of money was seen con-
versing together on the avenue not far
from Texas City hotel. The saloons and
restaurants were cleaned out early in the
day. The temperance lunch room, at "the
corner grocery," was completely devas-
tated, and a big run was made on canned
goods and crackers and cheese. Lots were
sold on nearly every square, and at ad
vances in price since the last free excur-
sion. A half dozen loads of the visitors
went over to the big dredge, and Captain
Nelson took great pleasure In showing
them the workings of the monster ma-
chine. All left for home at night, con
scious of a happy, and in scores of In-
stances, a very profitable day spent.
Frederick Jacobson of the dredge is very
sick at present.
Edward O'Brlan of Springfield, Mass., Is
among the latest arrivals at Texas City,
The Florida is now pumping out about
5000 cubic yards of mud a day and steadily
advancing on Texas City, where a big cel-
ebration is to be held when the dredge
reaches land. The celebration will prob-
ably be taken part in by thousands of peo-
ple from all over Texas.
John T. Talbot of Greenville, Miss., vis-
ited Texas City Wednesday. He expects to
become a permanent citizen.
DICKINSON.
Dickinson, Galveston Co., Tex., May 2.—
While surrounding towns announce good
rains, Dickinson has not had enough to do
any good, and the result is painfuTly ap-
parent on every hand, as all kinds of veg-
etables and even the prairie grass are suf
fering greatly. Strawberries are small and
sorry and the vines have mostly ceased
bearing. In marked contrast to this is the
irrigated farm of Captain C. Nicolini, who
irrigates from an artesian well, and his
berries and vegetables are as fine as ever
seen here. His well will more than pay
for itself this season.
Messrs. A. Tr'uccone and J. Viotto have
just had a well completed that gives
fine flow and is 631 feet deep.
A hotel and race track are to be part of
the improvements at the park, and while
the former is badly needed, the latter will
be quite a feature for the exercise of the
improved stock being introduced here.
The main pavilion is about completed
and is commodious and handsome in all
its details. The citizens can see no good
reason why the horticultural exposition
should not be located here, unless the com-
mittee wants to make it strictly a Galves-
ton enterprise, for no more convenient or
prettier place can be found in all Texas
for such an enterprise, and the owners of
the park have certainly offered liberal in-
ducements for it to come here.
The pear orchards are all young, but
several are bearing fruit this year. Dick-
inson has some as fine young orchards as
any place can show.
QUl'NTANA.
Quintana, Brazoria Co., Tex., May 2.—
Business is dull, notwithstanding there ds
a large number of men employed on the
jetty work, wing dams and in brush camps,
With fish fries, picnics, hops at the pavil-
ion and the usual number of visitors that
are expected here for the summer, the
young people are anticipating a gay time.
The "F. G. C." of this place gave a picnic
up on the Brazos river midway between
Velasco and this place last Wednesday.
The day was spent pleasantly and dancing
was indulged in that night to quite a late
hour.
Visitors for the summer have commenced
coming in and a great crowd is expected
during the hot months.
Fruit trees that were planted last month
have only had one light rain on them, and
those that were planted in ground broken
for the first time last year will die If the
drouth continues much longer. There have
been about 12,000 fruit trees planted in the
neighborhood of Angleton this year.
ALTA LOMA.
Alta Loma, Galveston Co., Tex., May 2.—
Alta Lomans turned out in great shape to
visit Galvestou May 1. All were highly
Sleased with the welcome and display of
alveston's business people.
Mr. A. Severns of Trenton, Mo., who
visited Alta Loma a few weeks ago, writes
from his old home to friends here that he
intends shortly to return to Alta Loma,
making It his future home. He thinks
many others from Tl1s section of the coun
try will come with him to locate some
where in the coast oountry.
The waterworks crew is having fine
weather and making good progress.
F. L. Johnaon has moved from his

Mr. Cra£* ^
A representative of The News called
upon Mr. de Normandie, president of
the Gulf and Interstate, yesterday morn-
ing and asked him what he thought of the
dispatch in The News from Houston an-
nouncing that the Huntington lines would
build into Galveston, and how it would
affect the Gulf and Interstate. Mr. de
Normandie replied that he was glad to
know that other roads were coming to
lalveston, but that the Huntington sys-
tem would in no sense supply the place
the Gulf and Interstate proposes to fill,
as it would simply amount to other roads
to Houston. It would not give any nearer
connection with east Texas, he said,
neither would it give the merchants of
Galveston any additional trade with that
section of the state. In Mr. de Norman-
die's opinion the coming of the Southern
Pacific to Galveston means that Mr. Hunt-
ington is aware of the fact that his sys-
tem will be vastly benefited by building
here. "Every dollar subscribed to aid the
Gulf and Interstate, In completing its line
to Beaumont and beyond," said he, "is
worth thousands to Galveston business
men."
What do you think about the statement
that two-thirds of the cotton which comtJs
over the Southern Pacific lines to Hous-
ton Is shipped to Galveston?"
"I think the statement may be true if It
means that two-thirds of the cotton which
these roads stop at Houston is shipped
through Galveston, but if it means that
two-thirds of all the cotton originating on
these lines is shipped through Galveston
it is scarcely correct. 1 hope, however,
that not only these but many other lines
will come to Galveston. Each road- which
conies here will benefit the country
through which it passes, and Galveston
well. Our road opens up a territory
now practically closed to us, and places us
nearer than any competing point to a
country rich in opportunities for develop-
ment. When our line is completed the
passenger traffic into the state will pass
through Beaumont via Galveston to the
interior of the state instead of only com-
ing to Galveston as a special or side trip,
or when business compels, as now. It
consequently would seem that the best in-
terests, in fact the best possible thing that
Galveston could do, would be to build the
Gulf and Interstate, no matter how many
roads are built connecting it with the in-
terior."
COMMISSION MATTERS.
Austin, Tex., May 2.—The hearing set for
to-day on jobbers' rates was postponed
until May 10 by the railroad commission.

RELIGIOUS MATTERS.
Pastors' Institute of the Synod
the Cumberland Presby->
terian Church.
of
portant Subjects Under Discussion—The
Closing Session of the Sunday School
Convention.
"Mexla, Limestone Co., Tex., May 2.—'The
pastors' Institute of the Texas synod of the
Cumberland Presbyterian church convened
here this morning at 9 o'clock. The insti-
tute was called to order by the secretary,
Rev. S. C. Lockett, and after devotional
exercises the Rev. J. H. Wofford was
elected chairman and Rev. T. N. Williams
was appointed assistant secretary. An ef-
fort was made to shorten the programme,
but the brethren would have none of it,
and it was agreed that the programme
would be executed as arranged by the ex-
ecutive committee, which had made it.
Revs. J. M. Cocke, J. M. Halsell and I. L.
Gamewell were appointed a committee to
fill the vacancies on the programme.
On motion of Rev. J. S. Groves every vis-
itor present was invited to join in the dis
cussion. and he included The News man
among the number. Amended by adding a
special request for the ladies to participate,
and unanimously adopted.
"Formality in the Pulpit" was briefly dis-
cussed by Rev. W. J. Lackey. It was nec-
essary, the speaker argued, to have some
form In the pulpit, yet it should be limited
to wearing good apparel, if you have it,
and if not get the brethren to buy it for
you. Wear not robes and use not other
customs, which attract to the preacher and
detract from the truth taught. Let the
central Idea be the spirit of God.
"The Marriage Relation" was the topic
given to Brother Groves. He said that it
was the all important relation of society,
the basic foundation of our social and
moral life. To have perfect happiness and
to have a perfect and godlike home it was
necessary to have the husband and wife to
understand and appreciate the obligations
of that divine institution. The woman is
essentially man's equal in the home life, if
not his superior, and should have justice
meted out to her. Mr. Groves also gave
t'he socialistic and communistic spirit which
would destroy the home a rasping.
Rev. Mr. Lackey declared that the mar-
riage relation was treated too lightly by
every one, and the ministry was exhorted
to be more considerate. Marriage was a
serious question and our divorce laws were
too lax.
Brother Halsell said that the civil au-
thorities were revolting against the divine
will when they permitted divorces for
other than scriptural grounds.
Brother Cocke came down with great em-
to wnat had been said about the
'Graded Lessons for Sunday Schools." He
believed the best results could be obtained
in the Sunday school work by grading
them. The child should be placed in the
proper class every time it goes to school.
Ddrt't "cram" it with 'too much work or
lessons that are hard.
U'jv. Wofford favo^td -graded schools.
He deemed thorn best.
Rev. Graham of Kpjmp ? suggested that
we needed method rather than grading.
Normal methods was his idea. It is in-
jurious to take a child from one class and
put it in a lower one.
"Dot We Need a State Superintendent,
aitd How to Sustain' Himv as unani-
mously referred to the synod for solution.
An effort was ma lo lo have the Sunday
school convention dissolved, and quite a
discussion was precipitated, in which
nearly all present participated. It was
finally suggested that much good was being
accomplished by the annual meetings, and
that the necessity for more systematic ef-
fort for the Sunday school work required
the perpetuation of the convention, and to
this all agreed.
The convention then adjourned.

THE STANFORD ESTATE SUIT.
Was'h-ington, May 2.—<Mrs. Leland Stan^
ford, who has arrived in Washington from
San Francisco, last night had an inter-
view with the attorney general in regard
to the suit pending against 'her husband's
estate. S<he was aartlcularly anxious to
•have it expedited as rapidly as possible
and was assured by Mr. Olney that he had
been from the llrst anxious to have the
case heard at the tirst opportunity and
would give the necessary 'instructions to
the United States attorney at San Fran-
cisco. On account of bonds issued by t'h*
government to the Central Paciflc ra-ilroad
company and chv accrued interest, there
will soon become due to the government
about $60,000,UH). Under the law of Cali-
fornia eaCh stockholder of a corporation is
individually liable for his proportion of Its
debts. The Stanford estate-owns about one
quarter, or $16,000,000 of the Central Pacific
stock, and hence its alleged liability to
the amount. The suit was brought in an-
ticipation of the failure of the stockholders
to meet tms obligation. It is thought the
suit may be brought up to the United
States >unic-jne oourt for a hearing ux the
next Octabtr term.

inhahnony of the civil laws with those of
God relative to the divorcement of the
marriage relation. All ministers, of what-
ever denomination, should unite and de-
mand an amendment to our laws.
Chairman Wofford said the election of
better and purer men to office was the
proper thing. This sentiment awakened a
chorus of amens from ail .parts of the well
tilled church. Ministers should take high
ground on the question and absolutely re-
fuse to marry divorced people.
Brother "Spencer wanted the other side
talked about some. How to promote mar-
riage was a question with him. He rather
favored the bachelor tax.
Elder James was sure that, so long as
we have one standard for women and an-
other for men, so long wilil we be cursed
wCth a great many complications along
■this line. Teach purity for man as well as
for woman.
The chairman cal'led time, and the next
topje was given to Rev. Mr. Donnell of
Athens. It was: "Shall the pastor call on
the female members of his church for pub-
lic prayer and public testimony for Christ V
He answered in the affirmative. God\
church could not be conducted without the
women. iHe had one elder who did not want
a woman to pray nor testify in publilc for
Christ.
•Brother Ward suggested that the institute
pray for 'him at once.
Mr. Halsell of Houston could not pro-
ceed with his work wdthout the public pray-
ers and testimony of the women. His
church was organized with women and until
recently was a female church.
Mr. Ward said that t'he devil would shout
for joy if the church should tie the hands
of the women. He would go right on with
his destruction of mankind 41 the women
were not permitted to pray.
Eider Jones wanted the women turned
loose. Let them do whatever God calvs
■them to do.
Mrs. B. D. Cockrell made an argument
favoring the aflirmative of the question.
Our fathers and husbands take a delight to
have us recite on the public stage and -sing
love songs, but are horrified when we speak
in public for Christ.
"Let the women pray while the men pay,"
said one brother.
Dr. Spencer wanted women to do what-
ever God put in their hear.ts to do.
SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION.
Mexia, Tex., May 2.—The Sunday school
convention of the Cumberland Presbyte-
rian church synod of Texas adjourned last
night, to meet at the place of and two
days preceding the meeting of the Pastors'
institute of this synod. The night session
was devoted to a continuation of the dis
cussion of the topics relative to the work
of the Sunday schools.
Mrs. B. D. Cockrell of Trinity universit"
read a paper, in which she discussed "T>
Sunday School as a Contributor to t>.
Enterprises of the Church." If the teach-
ers and superintendents of the Sabbath
school were to do their whole duty as con-
secrated Christians, we would not have to
pay out thousands and thousands of dol-
lars everv year to get agents to go among
our people and beg them to do thefr duty
toward maintaining our colleges and mis-
sions and other church work. The Sunday
school should contribute not only financial
aid to our enterprises, but should be a
nursery for the training of Christian sol-
diers to take up the work of the church.
Rev. Mr. Groves wanted the children to
learn the necessity of supporting the en
terprises of the church in a practical way,
He had tried the experiment and was well
pleased with the results.
Rev. J. M. Coke took issue with those
who wanted the Sunday school as an in-
stitution to contribute to the enterprises
of the church. He was of the opinion that
it would detract from the work of the
church. It might lead the children to put
the school ahead of the church.
Elder W. S. James said the Sunday
school should be simply a place of teach
lng the children loyalty to God, inculcat
ing the Bible principles of systematic
Christian beneficence and due regard for
our obligation to the church and its re-
quirements. When the Sunday school is
brought to understand that it is the church
In school and the training and not a sep
arate Institution, and that the work of the
church is the work of the Sunday school
through the regular church channels, it will
then become a power for advancing the
enterprises of the church.
"Normal work—Its Importance and Meth-
ods," was assigned to Rev. J. A. Ward of
the Abilene, church. He was not kind!y
disposed toward normal methods and
somewhat discouraged their use. Too much
time was lost in studying methods. The
central idea is to get results of a beneficial
kind, and it was his opinion that «uch
could be had only by persistent effort
without regard to "methods."
Mr. Groves took issue with the first
speaker. The best results are obtained in
tne public schools by teachers who attend
the "normal," and he favored normal
methods in teaching the Sabbath schools,
as he believed that it would materially
enhance the work.
"Primary Work" on the programme was
assigned to Mrs. W. B. Parr of Marshall.
She wag not present, but sent to the con-
vention a paper. She held that the first
help In primary work was to have a
neatly and well arranged room, pleasant
and not too large. Use pictures and Illus-
trations to interest and attract the young
minds, many of whom could not be ex-
pected to otherwise retain the lesson
sought to be taught. Teach the Lord's
prayer, teach them to sing; interest them
in your work and have them to help you.
Let one or two take up the collections, an-
other to count the money, others to dis-
tribute the papers and merit cards, etc.
Say bright things and use the most joyous
songs. Use the blackboard often. Don't
be afraid to do so because you are not an
artist. Do your best.

Allenfarm, Brazos Co., Tex., May 2.—
Colonel L. A. Whatley, superintendent of

thing they had or any he had seen. He
