^Ienry Morrow, a negro abut 50
■veavs of age, who had been con-
fined in tho county jail as a
lunatic for tho past fivo or six
weeks, died on Saturday and was
buriod hy tho county. lie was
brought hi from tho Gay Hill set-
tlement.
"Nick gentrv.—The body of Nick
Gentry was found in the Yequa, at
jjoloeh crossing, about thirteen
luii'es from Burton, about 3 o'clock
Saturday afternoon, and at 5 o'-
clock thb' justice of the peaco of the
Burton precinct had started out to
hold an inquest. No particulars
could bo learned beyond the tact
that Gentry's body had been found*
Prcm tD-morrow on there will bo

o'clock. English speaking at first
mass; PoJish at the second. Cate-
chism at 9 o'clock. The lectures

avinouncoment. I want to give
tho.*11 on several conset&tive even-
ings, but I will have to wah until
tho mOv°D throws some light on our
darkcit>*• J. Grabinokr.
A Pr?A.»-Tho members of the
Brenham »nd Ladder Com.
pany are a jovM of fellows, and
are not given to fault-finding, but
they do think that inasmuch as
they give their services free to the
city, that tho city ought, at least,
keep the street and approaches to
the truck house in passable «ondi-
tion. It is actually dangerous ia
attempt te turn oui hurriedly with
Abe Jruok on a dark night. Wo
hope we will not be compelled to
tail attoalion to this matter again.
Negro Rapist Caught.—Lato in
Fobruary a German girl, aged
about 19 years, who had been
working in Brenham as a milliner,
was overtaken, about 1 o'clock in
tho afternoon, on tho Santa Fe
railway, about two miles south of
town, by a negro man, who over-
powered and outraged her. The
matter was placed in tho hands of
tho officers and kept very quiet.
Four negroes were arrested
at different times and taken
before the girl, but she did
not recognize any of them as
tho man. On Saturday ShorifF
Lewis, of Austin county arrested
Albort Johnson, a full-blooded
negro, aged about 26 years, on a
farm near Industry and brought
him to town. He was taken to the
girl who recognized him as the
man. Johnson is now in jail; he
has been preparing for the min-
istry and has, when occasion off-
ered, preached sermons.
Died.—On the 19th inst., at
Lyons Station, Burleson county,
Luke Roberts, aged 70 years.
The deceased was born in Ton-
ncsseo in 1816 and camo to Texas
in 1836, sottling in Washington
county, whore ho resided until a
few years ago. His remains wore
brought here on Friday evening
and wero interred in the city cem-
etery on Saturday.
Still Another.—Elsewhere will
be found the announcement of Mr.
James Butler as a candidate for
alderman from tho Second Ward.
Mr. Butler is an old citizen of
Brenham and is too well known to
need any introduction at our
hands.
Bapti inc.—Elder Moses John-
son requests the Banner to state
that there will bo baptising at
Camptown at 2 p. m., sharp, to-
day.
