An Earnest Appeal.
The grand military ball at the
pavillion on tho night of tho Itli of
July is under tho supervision of the
malitia of Brenham, the Firemen hav-
ing given them the free use of the
pavillion for the occasion and it is the
patriotic duty of tho people of Bren-
ham to turn out.
Every ono foels more of less pride in
our military companies, and as they
are goiug to the State encampment in
a lew days and will need money in
the', -paration necessary to getting
ofT Every ono should purchase a ticket
and go out. In order to iusure a large
attendance they have reduced the
price of admission to .30 cents a paltry
sum for the pleasure to be derived,
and they should have a tremendous
crowd.
The Second Regiment baud another

ham should feel proud are arranging

Lots of good men have gone olT to
the populists, but they will come back
to tho democratic^ fold in good time,
what there is good in populism is cov-
ered by democracy, while tho .other
parts only need a little time to iall to
pieces. Their platform is construted
with a view of catching votes, but the
principles of Democracy, "equal rights
to all, special privileges to none" is
more euduriag than any of the catch-
penny phrazes of the Populists. If you
are weary in the Democratic party
vote for a change of leaders but not
your principles.
A Clorious Excursion.
The Cliappell Hill Overland excur-
sion party to Eagle Lake have return-
ed home highly elated over the
pleasures of the trip.
Messrs. W. I). Crockett and Jack
Routt, of the party, wero in the city
Saturday and Mr. Crockett in conver-
sation with tho reporter said they
couldn't have possibly had a better
time. There wore 22 white people
and four colored waiters in the party,
1!) horses and plenty of tents, and
ample provision had been mado lor an
extended frolic and wo had it. Wo
were gone 15 days and perhaps a party
of young folks never spent 15 days
more pleasantly.
"Tho people of Eagle Lake," lie con-
tinued enthusiastically, were as kind
and hospitable as any I evor met, and
treated us as neighborly as if we have
moved down there to stay instead of
being transiont visitors whom they
could bleed. For everything (or which
we wero charged tho rates wero
liberal, and it was with groat reluc-
tance after this extended stay that wo
could get our consent to strike tents
and pull out, and I have no doubt but
that every 0110 of tho party will
cherish In memory tho most pleasant
recollections of the fortnights pleasure
and join 1110 in wishing lor a returi.
of the event.
New Beer Agency.
Mr. II. Fischer has accepted the
agency for tho American Brewing As-
sociation at Houston aud since his
purchase of tho Casino saloon is hav-
ing it thoroughly overhauled and ren-
ovated, and wheu completed will be
one of the prettiest and most comfort-
able places in the city.
Mr. E. Rouse for the past week has
been busy papering the bar and hall
adjoining, carpenters have put in new
lloors and a spraying fountain will be
erected in tho center of tho large
room, and with electric fans this will
unquestionably bo the most commodi-
ous and comfortable bar in tho city.
Mr. Adolpii Lelide has tho manage-
ment of the establishment, and Mr.
Frank X. Semmelman is bartender,
the strongest team perhaps in tho
State.

"At a preciuct convention in Bren-
ham tho other day twenty-four opera
chairs and throe windows were
broken. If tho county convention
proves correspondingly demonstrative
a thirty strand barb-wire fence will
scarcely retain tho superlative enthu-
siasm."—Navasota Tablet.
The county convention convened in
tho Firemen's pavillion, which has a
barb-wire fence of considerable height
around it, but it was very harmoni-
ous, tho pavillion easily "retaining
the enthusiasm," which did not reach
the superlative degree necessary to
even endanger the pavilliou not hold-
ing it. Tho floor was well waxed and
speakers had to be careful as to how
they enthused, least they sat dowu
too suddenly with a dull thud.
The Navasota Tabletsays: "Dr. H.
C. liees, of Brenham, au occulist and
atirriat of much note, paid our office a
pleasant call yesterday.'' That's
strange, that there should be au occu-
list and aurrut in Brenham of "much
note" that the Banner has never
heard of. He must be }ust compli-
menting Brenhan by advertising it as
his home, though he may be here, for
Brenham is a big town and there are
a number of people here that we don't
know by name.

gram officiating. Ere the auspicious
hour arrived a large crowd of the
many friends and acquaintances of

"So you married a telephone girl

One Way to Sleep.
In order to insure sound sleep Pro-
fessor Scripture of Yale has foi years
plugged up las ears at night with
sealing wax. He explains the proc-
ess as follows: "The Hfcrk of wax is
warmed over the gas flame, and a
sufficient quantity is pressed off be-
tween the thumb and finger. This
is placed in the entrance of the exter-
nal meatus. In order to make such
a fit that no sensations of touch are
produced when the head is placed on
the pillow the tragus is placed over
it for an ipstant, aud the end of the
index finger slightly loosens the top
and bottom of the plug in the ear.

Curious !/aruiia ii r*.
All English paper recall s s
weather indicators that were popular
before the days of the; scientific ba-
rometer. When leeches wero kept
in every chemist's shop, and often in
houses, they were constantly ob-
served, and it was generally noticed
that in still weather, dry or wet, they
remained at the bottom of their tot-
ties, but rose before a change, often
as much as 21 hours in advance. An
ingenious doctor had an apparatus
by which one of 12 leeches rang a
bell when a "tempest'' was approach-
ing.
The frog barometer, used in Ger-
many and Switzerland, consists of a
jar of water, a frog and a little wood-
en step ladder. If tho frog conies
out and sits 011 the steps, rain is ex-
pected. An early scientific toy and
much prized weather glass of the last
generation was "the old man and
woman," who foretold the weather
by being drawn in their turn from
their little hut through tho contrac-
tion or lengthening of a piece of cat-
gut acting on a lever. Other indica-
tions upon which the weather wise
have depended are that bees will not
fly before a shower, that horses aro
most worried by flies before rain, and
that the gossamer rises before fine
weather.
Artist ami Artisan,
Brander Matthews, in an article on
"Bookbindings of tho Present" in
The Century, says: "I remember that
in 1807, when I was but a boy, I had
a chat in Naples with Signor Caatel
lani, the antiquarian and goldsmith,
about the fluctuations of the art of
the silversmith. He told 1110 that ho
had more than one workman then in
his shop of greater skill than Ben-
venuto Cellini, of a more certain
handicraft. These workmen could
reproduce any of Cellini's legacies to
posterity, little masterpieces of gold-
smithery and enameling, and they
would make a better job of it than
tho great Italian, for the modern ;ni-
dations would show a finer tec?. al
skill than Cellini's and reveal f r
defects and blunders and accidents
than tho marvelous originals. But
copy as accurately as they might the
modern workmen were wholly inca-
pable of originating anything.
"I11 Cellini there was a union of tho
head and tho hand, of the artist and
of tho artisan, while in Castellani's
men the hand had gained skill, but
the head had lost its force. Tho
handicraft had improved, and the art
had declined. There were now very
expert artisans, but there was 110 in-
disputably gifted artist."

Tli© I.rlltr anil Check Were Not Good
jMioiigli to Do the Trick.
After he had read the letter and
duly inspected the check, he mut-
tered :
"Well, well. That is the strangest
request I ever had made to me."
"What's the matter?" asked the
stranger. "Do they want you to
telegraph that you have received the
money f"
"Oh, no; not at all. They kn/>*v
well enough that I wouldn't do
that."
"Ask you to acknowledge receipt
by first mail:
"No; I rather expected them to
ask that, but they haven't."
"Mayl>o they would like to liavo
you hold it a week before depositing
it. No funds in tho bank just now."
■No."
"What do they want then'"
"Why, the check is their receipt,
and tliey ask me to deposit it as soon
as possililc."
"What is there strange about
that:''
"What is there strange nlxmt it? I
guess you don't know me. That check
is for s-y-i— see <" He showed the stran-
ger the check and then went down
into his trousers pocket and pulled
out six pennies, a dime and a niekel.
"That's the size of my pile," he went
on, "and it's a little bigger today
than usual. Now, then, under tho
circumstances, wouldn't you say that
a man was wasting time and ink
when he asked me to deposit a check
as soon as possible? Funny how some
men will— Say, you haven't $8
about you, have you? You have?
Just wait till I indorse the check,
and— What? You won't cash it!
Seen the game played before? Hang
me, but that's a squelcher for an am-
bitious man. I took a week to map
out that story and thought it was
now. The check looks all right any-
way, and I made it small so's I could
work it off easy."- Chicago Post.

Speaking of eggs, it is a fresh egg
that will sink and a bad one that will
swim. Everybody knows that a good
egg will do one and a bad egg tho
other, but for some reason it seems
difficult to remember which does
which. The reason a fresh egg sinks
in water is because of tho water in its
own composition. Another test of a
thoroughly fresh egg is the distinct-
ness with which the yolk may be seen
when the etrtr is held up to the light.
Missouri Wildcat*.
Sandow tried his level l>est to get a
fight out of Colonel Dan Boone's big
lion, "Commodore," but it was nogo.
He picked the huge beast up by the
hide, swung him round and round,
threw him 011 the floor of the cage,
and just dared him to "come up to
the scratch." How much of that kind
of foolishness, do you suppose, would
a wildcat from the S111 hills tolerate?
We hear a great deal of flamboyant
rot about the ferocious "monarch of
tho forest." but, as a matter of un-
adorned fact, the timber of Missouri
can trot out a little beast that San-
dow couldn't whip one side of, and
which he would no more tliiuk of
picking up than he would venture to
thrust his hand into a buzz-saw.

This Titan of Chasms is the grandest in4
most sublime scene in the known world. No-
where in human experienc* can the like be
found.
The beauties of this grand scene have re-
cently been portrayed by Ameiica's greateii
landscape painter, Mr. Thomas Moran, in •
painting 6x12 feet, shown at the Wortd's Fair,
«nd valued at $25,000.00. By special per-
mission of the owner to the Santa Fe Route,
a lithograph, si/.e 29*42 inches, has been
made, which in all its details is an exact re-
production of the paintinc itself, and is worthy
a placc and display on the walls of any
uisn's parlor.

and sec fiv'te parallel track, covering a distance
of fourteen miles, winding up the mouatmin
side This, with the spots of snow.furnithes
a picture hard to describe.
This scene of nature has been painted by
Mr. Chas. Graham, the renowned scenic artist
from which a hne steel engraving has heen
made, mounted on heavy Bristol board, site
29x54 inches. This engraving is one of the
most attractive and nature true pictures ol
mountain scenery ever executed.
These pictures are high-art advertisements
of nature as it is, and nothing shows that they
