WEATHER AND CROPS.
Regular Weekly' Report of the Tem
Weather Bureau
United States Department of Agri-
culture, Weather Hureau—Weather
crop bulletin of the Texas weather
service for the week ending Thursday.
Feb. 21,1896, at 5 p. m:
Precipitation—-The week opened
With a light snow falling generally
throughout tho .State and the ground
m covered to a depth of from four
to fourteen inches, with the greatest
over tne east coast district. The snow-
fall during the close of last week and
at the opening of this was the great-
eat ever known over the southern por-
tion of the State since the records have
been kept and is the second time
since 1881 that the ground has been
covered to a depth ot one inch or more
at Galveston. The weather cleared
on about the tirst of the week, after
Which fair weather prevailed. The
precipitation on an average lor the
week ranged from 0.2o t-> 0.06 of inch
below the normal, with the »rcntest
deficiency over the southeastern jx>r-
tbns of the State.
Hunshiue—Nimbus uud mimilu*
clouds prevailed at tho opening of ttio
week, which reduced the amount of
sunshine to some extent, but the sun
shone almost.incessantly during t lie
middle and latter part of the week,
and hence on an average for
the week the sunshine lias been
slightly above the normal amount.
Temperature—The wee!; opene
with a severe norther prevailing uud
the temperature ranged from L'O to
degrees below the daily normal, with
the greatest deficiency over the con*I
district. The temiieruturo continued
IS to I'i degrees below the normal un-
lit toward the close of the week, \v hen
itbegintori.se and the week closed
with the temperature generally about
the normal. The temperature on an
average for the week ranged from 1",
to20 degrees below the normal, with
the greatest deficiency over the east
coast district. The highest tempera-
ture at the several stations during the
week has ranged from 42 degrees over
the Panhandle to (12 degrees over the
eastern portion of Southwest Texas,
and the lowest has ranged from <i de-
grees below zero over the Panhandle
to 9 degrees over the east coast dis-
trict.
CONDITION of t ROI'S.
Farm work was almost at a stand-
still during the early part of the week
on account of the continued disagree-
able weather. The ground was cover-
ed with snow in some places over
North aud Central Texas at the close
of the week, while it was almost a
thing of the past over the southern
|tortious. 11 is a consensus of opinion
amojg the correspondents that the
snowfall will be of great benefit to
farming interests and will put a good
season in the ground, which was much
needed.
The cold weather was very hard ou
livestock and will result In many
head of cattle being lost where they
were not well cared for.
The weather at the close of the week
was exceptionally fine for farming in -
terests and the ground where not well
drained was rather heavy for plowing
and sowing spring crops. Though
notwithstanding tlie dampness of the
ground the plow was started in some
places aud farmers were generally
busy throughout the State. With fine
weather for a few weeks farm work
will be rushed aud spring oats, vege-
tables aud other crops will soon be
planted.
Some corespondents state that the
late eoliLwHither will be beneficial to
the truin:rop this season.

OL'it .NEIGHBORS.
A Hempstead special ot the -1st
says: "The attorneys of Al Wright,
the young Englishman convicted for
the killing of Will Brown and given a
sentence of Ave years at this term of
eourt, were granted a new trial for
their client this morning.
John Houston, a young negro, was
given twenty years for the murder of
a negro woman, committed last fall in
the Brazos bottom.
Tom Costeele, who was indicted
jointly with Houston, turned State's
evidence and helped to furnish the
main testimony for the conviction of
Houstou.
The grand jury adjourned this even-
ing. There was but little before that
body and but for the sold weather
which made the attendance of wit-
nesses almost impossible, the grand
jury would have finished its work in
a week.
District Attorney Pinckney accom-
plished some great victories for the
Htate, especially in the John Houstou
ease, which was ably defended by the
beet attorneys of the Hempstead bar.
When court adjourns for the term
to-morrow the criminal docket will be
•Jmoet cleared.
A dastardly attempt was made in
the early part of last night to burn
down the residence of Mr. Clarence
Weir. It was a little after i> o'clock
wheu Mr. Weir discovered the incipi-
ent blaze underneath his house and
he soon succeeded in checking the
flames. A fruit can filled with kero-
sene and eorucol* was found where
the fire originated, leaving no doubt
as Ui thr design of (lie fire devils. Mr.
Weir is one of thejjest .citizens of this -
city and he cannot imagine why any-
one should try to destroy his
property.
A Caldwell special of the 21st says ;
••Caldwell lodge No. 191, Knights of
Pythias, celebrated tho thirtv-firet an-
niversary of the order last night with
public exercises and a banquet given
by the Ladies' Aid society of the
Baptist church. A large number of
invited guests were present.
Rev. A. B. Ingram, pastor of the
Baptist church, delivered the Pythian
address in his usual fluent and mas-
terly style. For once the regulation
story of Danion and Pythias was
omitted aim the noble principles of
the order and the duties of the mem-
bers of the lodge, a» true, loyal and
gallant knights, a-iven a prominent
place.

Mr. AuiiuHtuH o. tiraham
Tallhinn, tnd. Ter.
"Oar son Augustus wan very severely

We persuaded him to take Hood's Sarsa*
