The Rebel McNeil? Trial.
The case of the State vs. Rebel Mc-
Nelly, on the charge of assault with
intent to murder (ius Broesche last
fall while they were on their way
home from Burton, has occupied the
time of the District court for two days,
Monday and Tuesday. Monday was
consumed in empaneling a jury and
only seven secured, but early Tuesday
morning the panel was completed, the
evidence heard, and the argument
was opened by District Attorney King
for the Btate, followed by W. B. Gar-
rett Esq., in a lengthy argument for
the defense. He was followed by a
twenty-five minutes speech by Judge
Kirk tor the defense, Mr. Searcy clos-
ing for the defense. The argument
for the State was closed by District
Attorney King and the case given toj
the jury about •"> o'clock.
At a late hour Tuesday night the!
jury were still out, with no pros-
pects of agreeing, and the probability
is that there will be as in the first case
a mistrial.

This beautiftil play will beproduced
at the Opera House next Thursday
evening, the 29th of September, as a
joint benefit for the Brenham Light
Guard and the Indies World's Fair
Committee. The production is under
the stage direction and personal su-
pervision of Mr. Lee Peeler, late of the
Rose Osborne company, which is in
itself a gauarentee of its success. The
cast is an exceptionally strong one,
being composed of Brenham's most
talented amateurs, ably assisted by
Messrs. Peeler and VanOrton.
The public should turn out en masse,
and not only enjoy a good play, well
staged, but by their presence aid two
very worthy charities. The World's
Fair Committee and its laudable ob-
ject Is too well known to need a word.
The Light Guard is soully in need of
funds, and Brenhamites are too proud
of their soldifer boys to allow them to
disband. A treat is in store for all
who attend.

and
- Shooting at Knobbe.
The Giddings News of a recent date
contained the following account of the
shooting at Knobbs school house last
week:
Sunday, Thos. Dismukes was shot
and killed by Sam H. Griffith. The
cause of the trouble was about some
young lady as best we can learn
Both ot the parties are well known in
Lee county and well thought of. Mr,
Griffith fled as soon as the shooting
occurred, and a telegram was received
about 2 o'clock Sunday by Sheriff"
Scarborough and be immediately left
for the scene, and he was met by Geo.
Dunnigiu and told that Griffith
would surrender to him before sun-up
Monday morning, and they parted,
and the sheriff* went on to Griffith's
house and remained. And after night
fall Griffith came home and surren-
dered to Sheriff" Scarborough and re-
turned to Giddings at once. It was
about 3 o'clock Monday morning
when Griffith surrendered. The ex-
amining trial began Wednesday morn-
ing. The trial Began too late "for
News to give any evidence.

Spooner Will Be Whipped Again
Peck Will Remain Governor.
Until two years ago Wisconsin was
classed as almost invincibly Republican.
The magnificent Democratic victory of
1890 placed the state in the doubtful
column. It may now be removed froiu
that column and classed as safely Demo-
cratic.
By placing John C. Spooner at the
head of their state ticket, Wisconsin Re-
publicans have shut themselves out
from any hope of reprieve from the sen-
tence of popular condemnation passed
upon them two years ago. They have
enrolled themselves under the banner of
a professional lobbyist, corporation agenl
and itching politician. Overwhelmingly
repudiated by his state two years ago,
when a Democratic legislature was
elected to chooso his successor in the
United States senate, John C. Spooner
is fitted only to lead his party in Wis-
consin to fresh defeat and humiliation
as its gubernatorial candidate. The
man of whom his own party organ, the
Milwaukee Sentinel, confessed that he
had been known "for many years past
as the chief of the corporation lobbyists
in Madison," is not the Moses to lead
Wisconsin Republicans out of the wil-
derness.
On the tariff and the school issues
Hoard and Spooner were defeated in
Wisconsin two years ago, and on these
sani£ issues Harrison and Spooner will
bo defeated in Wisconsin next Novem-
ber. The national Democracy is now
enlisted with Wisconsin Democrats in
the battle for "parental rights and
rights of conscience in the edncati on of
children," in behalf of which, as an "es-
sential to civil and religious liberty,"
the Chicago platform makes a ringing
declaration.
Governor Peck will be his own suc-
cessor, and the electoral vote of Wis
consin will be cast for the Democratic
presidential ticket.—St. Paul Globe.

Democratic Tariff Law.
We denounce Republican protection
as a fraud, taxing the labor of the great
majority of the people for the benefit of
the few. We declare it to be a fnntla
mental principle of the Democratic party
that the federal government has no pow
er to impose and collect tariff duties ex-
cept for the purposes of revenue only,
and we demand that the collection of
such taxes shall be limited to the neces-
sities of the government when honestly
and economically administered. — Na-
tional Democratic Platform.

The Prevention of Smoke.
The latest system of smoke prevention
involves the use of the combined appa
ratus of two inventors. One invention
consists of fire clay arches through which
the combined air and gases are passed,
and which, becoming incandescent,
cause the smoke to be consumed. The
other principle is the induction of a low
pressure current of air by means of
steam jets, and the two devices com-
bined give a very good result, more espe-
cially when applied to steam boilers.—
