Monday, was occupied with road
business and auditing bills against
ty. Upon the application
of citizens of the Independence
neighborhood an appropriation of
11000 was made toward tho build-
ing of abridge across the Yegua at
wbat is known as tho McDowell
crossing. To-day, Tuesday, a dele-
gation from our commissioners
court will visit our sister county
of Bttrleson. and consult with the
commissioners at Caldwell with a
view to having them join this
county in building tho bridge,
which is much needed, as tho poo-
ple of both counties are mutually
interested. Indopendoace propos-
es to put 91000 into tho bridge as
a private enterprise.
Th* Baiwkr is pleased to stato,
upon the authority of a gentleman
of Independence, that arrange-
ments have been made for the con-
tinuance of tho schools at that
Jilace. Tho school property'thcro
is still vested m the Union Baptist
association, and the servicos of the
I b«t known female educators in
Texas have been engaged for the
coming scholastic year. In duo
time proper announcement will be
made, and it is confidently ox
peeted that Independence will hold
her own as one of the best educa-
tional centers in Texas. In the
near future Independence will have
railway connection with Brenham,
and id point of accessibility will be
§ »n a par with any place m the
BUte.

Madam Rumob with her many
^ tongues bad a report on the street
on Monday that the Brenbam Sal
vation army bad reor ganized for
the summer, and bad, on Sunday
last* held a large and enthusiastic
meeting on New Year's creek,
fpNmt four miles from town. It was
staffri that fifty pounds of Galves-
ton fish were carried out and firied,
and that the Salvationists actually
ate them. That branch of the
was so bitterly opposed to
water that it used up sever-
al half-barrels of beer. On the
ether ride of the creek it is said
there was another branch of the
mi army which ate fish
< in the creek on Sunday, and
water cooled with
»wn from the cans at the lee
on Soadiy. It is with feel-
that the Basse* re-

world is becoming too
