WHAT OUR NEIGHBORS ARE DOING.
H
CULLINGS l liOM TOWNS AM) COIN-
TIKS AIEOUND US.
Look Over Them, Perhaps You arn Men-
tioned, mill if Not, Some of; Your
Neighbors Are,
A Caldwell special of the 13th says:
"Yesterday evening 011 the Grant
place in the Brazos bottom two negroes
named Joe McQueen and Robert Mo-
Queen—cousins—got into a quarrel
over some eggs, when Joe getting en-
raged ran onto Robert with a knife,
cutting him so bttdly that he died
soon alter, living loug enough to say
that he had no idea that .Joe was go-
ing to cut him. Sheriff Wilson wont
down to-day after Joe."
A Navasota special os the 13th says:
"An excecutiou was levied on Ball's
restaurant for $08; assets and liabilities
small.
The "stew" doctor scare is about
over as far as outward appearances
go. ,The whole thing was intensely
funny except to the negroes, and the
medical students home from their
courses. Anyone who has only a silk
hat and duster can come here with
impunity now.
The oil mill here will have its own
water works system. A standpipellO
feet high and VJ. feet in diameter is be-
ing erected.
A Lexington special of the 13th says:
"Preparations are being being made
to entertain the ex-Confederate sol-
diers at an encampment at Wimberly
Lake, near this place, on the 20th and
and 21st,
Hon. M. M. Crane, L. T. Dashiel
and Colonel Wash Jones are expected
to address the soldiers. On the night
of the 20tli the old veterans will bo
camped in the woods along the shore
of the lake. A regular commissary
will be established where they will go
draw bread and beef just as they did
thirty year ago. Bands will dis-
course martial airs while the old
soldiers march as they did during the
war.
The passenger train on the Ban An-
tonio and Aransas Pass will carry
people from this place to the encamp-
ment each morning and return at
night. Many visiting soldiers are ex-
pected.
A Caldwell special says: "Mr,
Jacob Pajouk, a prominent Bohemian
of the Bird settlement, died last night.
He was 68 years old.
Johnston Watkins, a colored man
recently convicted in the Lyorysjustice
court, was sent to Koppe's farm in the
bottom Wednesday.
Mr. C. W. Cuiry, the city marshal,
has appointed Mr. Martin Rogers
deputy to look after the crookedness
in West Caldwell.
ThePopulistmass meeting at Second
creek a few days ago was very largely
attended.
Miss Tillio Werner, of Brenham, is
the guest of Mrs. V'al Herbst this
week.
The executive board of general Bap-
tist state convention, (colored), are in
session at this place. Among tlie
prominent divines are Rev. L. L.
Campbell, of Austin; Dr. W. B. Ball,
of Seguin, A. Hubbs, of Galveston, R.
H. Boyd, of Han Antonio. There
aro about twenty-five in the delega-
tion.
The Halem Baptist church that was
burned at Cooke's Point, about two
or three months ago is being rebuilt
very rapidly.
Caldwell Chronicle:
Mrs. W. H. Jeukins is visiting her
daughter, Mrs. Estler Barnett, of
Brenham.
An infant child of Mr. and Mrs.
Thos. Jackson of the Fraitnvillo
vicinity died Monday.
The wife of K. W. Worthington
died at her home near Cook's Point
Friday of pneumonia. We learn she
was the mother of several children.
A large number of the young people
of the city, cliaperonned by several
married couples, are spending the
week tishing and hunting at Sulphur
Springs 011 the rip-roaring Yogua.
Despair colors with its deepest hues
of dejection the handsome brow of
Cupid in Caldwell just now. There
may be some little flirtation going 011,
but real, genuine business in the mat-
rimonial lino is slower than a village
preacher's cash receipts.
The Caldwell bad boy has not grown
good yet, and we fear it will be a loug
time before ho does. He figures
prominently In current local events,
and say what you please about the
little scoundrel, his contribution of
mischief and mirth add 110 little to
break the languid monotony of the
dull months.
A Bohemian put a little too much
confidence in a docile, trusty old ox
that he drove to town Saturday and
while preparing to start home got in
too close proximity to the faithful ani-
mals heels, when the ox let his hoofs
fly in the air, the owner taking an ele-
vator and landing several feet away
with a broken noso as the result.
Itellvillo Tiin< s:
The first and second nines of the
Bellville base ball team played an ex-
cellent game Sunday, the score stand-
ing 11 to 10 in favor of the former.
There is talk of a game to be played
here 011 the 21st iust. between the
Bellville and Brenham nines.
Mr. Charles Fordtran, of Industry,
was in town Monday, looking as
juvenile and as active as ever, not-
withstanding that he will soon arrive
at the 93rd mile post of life journey.
Mr. Fordtran was born May 7, 1801,
and came to this country in January
1831, landing at Harrisburg near Hous-
ton. A week later lie was settled at
Industry, which is his home to-day.
