—Neither of the district courts was in
session to-day, Judge Cook still being
confined to his bed, and there being no
case set for the day in the civil district
court. Justice Spann’s court was like
wise barren of attraction.
—The Kory building, now in course
of erection on Market street, between
Twenty-second and Tremont, will, when
completed, present quite a handsome ap
pearance. It is of brick, substantially
and neatly constructed, and will be an
ornament to that portion of the city.

front page o* Evening Tribune. It
argues that he is still in the market with
all the most desirable styles and noted
makes of foot-wear. Associate his name
with every thought of new shoes, slip-
pers, etc.
—The Gulf City street railway com
pary have added a number of new cars,
and will commence running to the Beach
Hotel on Saturday next. On Tuesday
next the company will open its line to
Dalian’s and Wurzlow’s gardens, start-
ing from the corner of Market and
Twenty-fourth streets.
—"What threatened at one time yester-
day afternoon to be a regular reopening
of the Soudan campaign, was prevented
by the timely interference of Mr. Pat
Tieraan and a few bystanders. It was a
quadrangular quarrel at the “Two
Brothers.” The four were finally pacified
by the interposition of mutual Mends.
—Officer Bob Henderson is a chipper
on the run. He ought to enter for the
next international foot race. This morn-
ing he overhauled a fleet-footed coon,
who was wanted for assaulting, after an
exciting chase of sixteen blocks. After
the chase was over Robert looked as
though he had come out of a three day’s
go-as-you-please contest, but he took in
his darkey all the same.
—Our people have often asked the
question why fish should be so enormous-
ly high in Galveston. It has not been
answered, but it is a fact that one may
buy Galveston fish cheaper in the interior
than in the home market. Messrs. Mus-
grove and Gaston, fish dealers, are sell-
ing the choicest at five cents a pound
from their smack at Central wharf. They
deserve public patronage for this reduc-
tion.

A CHAIN OF PERTINENT AND IM-
PERTINENT SUGGESTIONS.
“It is Well Enough for One Half of the
People to Know What the Other
Half Think,” Hence All
These Paragraphs.
They Say—
—That official decency shall not go to
the wall;
—That professional decency seems to
be at a discount;

municipal Denmark;

calf ought to have it;

News’supplication for a rest;
—That the Beach attractions Sunday
next will be simply immense;
—That with some men the public teat
is too sweet to be turned loose;

to assume its normal attitude;
—That the custom house business is
“red hot and still a heatin’;”
—That the tenure-of-office act is being
awfully stretched m Galveston;
—That the new board of health holds
its first meeting this afternoon;
—That the council has some
which the mayor must respect;
—That the mayor has some
which the council must respect;
—That a man may be excused for
norance, but not for knavishness;
—That the office of city attorney must
be a valuable office (to Mr. Stubbs);
—That the ex-city attorney is as fond
of “more soup” as was Oliver Twist;
—That on the first of June, or very
soon thereafter, the work of sanitation
will begin;
—That the News is preparing to strike
tents and abandon its entrenchments in
Galveston;
—That Stubbs hangs on to the city
attorneyship with more tenacity than a
porous plaster;
—That Jimmie Stubbs seems to think
that he has a mortgage on the office of
city attorney;

long-billed bird that generally sets away
with his prey;

himself that he was defeated at the re-
cent election;
—That the News wants Ex-city Attor-
ney Stubbs to give her a little of Sary
Gamp’s “repoge;”
—That when the board of health be-
gins work, there will be employment for
many idle laborers;
—That there are more visitors booked
in the hotel registers than at any previ-
ous time this season;
—That when the News can afford to
mildly remonstrate, others can afford to
thunder disapproval;
—That less importance attaches to the
executive appointments than to the work
of the board of aldermen;
—That all this talk about cleansing the
Augean stables means nothing if it don’t
refer to cleaning up the streets and alleys;
—That there is room for no little
monkeying between $1800 and $5000—
the difference in the cost of the old and
new custom-house;
—That the old lady of the News is
slowly dying of a broken heart because
her efforts to stride the fence have not
been properly appreciated;
—That wounded pigeons will flutter,
and if there is not a visible quiver
among some of the custom-house flock
pretty soon, then somebody is badly
fooled.
SHOOTING TOURNAMENT.
The grand shooting tournament to
take place at the Beach Park on the 1st
and 2d days of June, prox., is exciting
much interest among the sport-loving
community. That it is to be held under
the auspices of the Galveston Gun club,
is a sufficient guarantee that everything
will be managed with the strictest regard
for the rules of propriety and fairness.
There will be none of that jockeying, or
playing for unfair advantage, which too
often brings such exhibitions into dis-
repute.
The whole will be under the manage-
ment of Mr. W. J. Hughes. Gunning is
a manly sport, and where such trials of
skill are placed under proper restrictions,
it can not be too strongly encouraged.
All the various methods of testing mark-
manship will be introduced. Prizes for
each will be offered. The competition
promises to be lively, and theie will
doubtless be large crowds of interested
spectators on each day. It will be pre-
ceeded on May 31st by a grand competi-
tive trial of skill, to take place
between H. A. Penrose, the successful
competitor of the celebrated Dr. Carver,
and Gwynne Price, the English champion
wing shot. He it was who defeated
Captain Bogardus, who for years enjoyed
the prestige of the world’s championship.
The test will be at 100 live pigeons each,
thirty yards rise, the use of both barrels
to be allowed. The contest is for $250
a side and the championship. The out-
side betting on the result promises to be
more than lively, as both parties have
numerous friends and backers.

from
A FOOT-RACE.
A festive youth, not having the fear of
God before his eyes, and whose compre-
hension of the distinction between mine
and thine seems to have been rather mur-
ky, made an attempt to tap the till at
Borelly’s Merchant Exchange this morn -
ing. The bar-tender had stepped into
the store-room, for some purpose, and,
taking advantage of his absence, the
thief went behind the counter, but before
he had time to accomplish his purpose,
the proprietor returned. The man “stood
not on the order of going, but went
at once.” Pursuit was made, but if he
had not more legs than his pursuers, he
proved to have better ones, and so made
good his escape.
THE BOARD OF HEALTH.
A Few Things Not Found Abroad.
[Prentice Mulford.]
There are lots of little things that I know
about sundry parts of my own land which
may be unknown to many of my country-
men and countrywomen visiting Europe. I
know, for instance, that in California pota-
toes and eggs are sold by weight. That in
San Francisco a “long bit” means 15 cents,
and a “short bit” 10 cents. That in the same
city the sand drifts over the lamp posts.
That in Nantucket they shut up their shops
and go home to dinner at 1 p. m. , many not
returning till 2. That in Illinois a “feller”
can take his girl out riding, and he and she
may be gone from home two or three days
without a fnss being kicked up over it,
bo long as there are other girls and
young men in company with them. That in
Richmond, Va., the squirrels in the public
parks are so tame they will come and steal
candy out of your pocket. That the quickest
way to “rile” a Chicago man is to speak a
word in commendation of St. Louis, and,
vice versa, to speak to the St. Louis man a
syllable in favor of Chicago is to rile him.
That in Washington you eat your oysters
“steamed,” and at the restaurant call for a
“peck” so prepared. I hat the meanest and
dirtiest street cars are found in New York
and the cleanest in Boston. That in Pitts-
burg coal smoke obscures the sun and is so
prevalent that mothers keep a sponge by the
hall doorway wherewith to wash the soot
from their children’s faces on coming out of
the street. That in Cincinnati the drinking
water is the color of coffee. That if you go
to Niagara Palls at this time of the year,
being the only and earliest visitor of the sea-
son, you will be followed there through
every street by a train of hacks as long as a
funeral procession, whose drivers and at-
tendant solicitors on foot will give you no
peace until you hire one. That if you don’t
answer them they’ll “sass” you. That in
Philadelphia the early morning cry is
“Catfish!” and that no respectable family
there thinks itself so without white shutters
and white marble doorsteps. That in New
Jersey, 20 miles from New York, there are
Americans coming of a lineage over 200
years old who still speak Dutch. That a
Poughkeepsie family of Holland ancestrage
can have no worse insult than that of being
thought or called “Yankees,”
The Power of Music.
[Fliegende Blaetter.]
After inquiry in all quarters deemed to
be informed on the subject, Evening
Tribune feels warranted in saying that
there will be an informal meeting of the
board of health on to-morrow afternoon,
the purpose of which will be the formula-
ting of some plan for immediate,
thorough and efficient sanitation of the
city. It appears to be the determina-
tion of the board to make it as compre-
hensive as the means at its disposal will
allow. Exactly what it will be, is not
yet known. That is the question
to be settled at to-morrow’s meeting.
It is further thought that the
work will be begun at a date not later
than the 1st of June. This is not official
information, but it is believed to be sub-
stantially correct. It will tend to relieve
some of the apprehension felt for the
health of the city, and for that reason is
given to the public.
OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
EXTRA OFFICIAL GREEDINESS.
Ex-city Attorney Stubbs wants “more
soup.” Not only that, but he wants his
bowl replenished twice, after already
having been served with what should
have satisfied a Christian stomach. What
are the plain facts? Mr. Stubbs, after
having once held the office by fair ap-
pointment and confirmation, assumed to
hold over under Mayor Fulton during his
first term, in defiance of the will and
wish of the appointing power. Now
during Mayor Fulton’s second term, he is
undertaking to play the same role. Un-
der the charter provisions, Colonel
Finlay is beyond all question the legal
attorney, the council’s failure to confirm
him to the contrary notwithstanding, at
least until other and further action is
taken. If Mr. Stubbs had any property
in the office prior to Colonel Finlay’s ap-
pointment—which is most strenuously
denied—it died on his hands with that
appointment. He may dodge behind as
many subterfuges as he likes, but this is
the law, and any pretence to the contrary
is only a pretext to excuse himself for at-
tempting to maintain official relations
with a mayor and council when
the association is wanted by neither. If
he is in by right, he ought to terminate
that right by resignation, for no high-
minded attorney possessing the proper
feelings of professional delicacy would
wish to maintain such a relation. Even-
ing Tribuns has the opinion of a large
number of the ablest and cleanest legal
gentlemen of the city, and has not heard
anything but the most unqualified en-
dorsement of these views. Legal ability
condemns it, and professional delicacy is
sickened to the point of loathing. Power
is sweet, but there is such a thing as a
man’s paying too dearly for it.

A Sure Cure Found at Last—No One Need
Suffer.
A sure cure for Blind, Bleeding, Itching
and Ulcerated Piles has been discovered by
Dr. William, [an Indian remedy,] called Dr.
William’s Indian Ointment. A single
box has cured the worst chroic cases of
25 years’ standing. No one need suffer five
minutes after applying this wonderful
soothing medicine. Lotions and instru-
ments do more harm than good. Wil-
liam’s Ointment absorbs the tumors, allays
the inten $ itching, [particularly at night af-
ter getting warm in bed,] acts as a poultice,
gives instant and painless relief, and is pre-
pared only for Piles, itching of the private
parts, and for nothing else
Read what the Hon. J. M. Coffinberry, of
Cleveland, says about Dr. William’s Indian
Pile Ointment: “I have used scores of
pile cures, and it affords me pleasure to say
that 1 have never found anything which
gave such immediate and permanent relief
as Dr. William’s Ointment.

The written examinations in the public
schools of the city will close to day. On
to-morrow the teachers will meet the
pupils at their respective schools and an-
nounce the names of pupils who are
finally promoted to the next higher
grade at the opening of the fall term.
Pupils throughout the entire system of
our city have during the year undergone
three written examinations upon ques-
tions prepared by the superintendent,
and have evinced a more complete mas-
tery of the subjects required than at any
previous examinations. These tests of
scholarship are rendered more thorough
and reliable since the questions are pre-
pared by the superintendent and not is-
sued from his office until the time for ex-
amination, and then all teachers exchange
classes.
WORTHILY WEDDED.
One of our most estimable business
men, Mr. T. H. King, was on yesterday
at 8 p. m. united in matrimony with
Miss Mollie Campbell, Rev. S. M. Bird
performing the ceremony at Trinity
Church. The groom has been for some
time withGoggan & Bro., and is held in
high esteem for his probity of character.
The fair bride is the accomplished daugh-
ter of Col. C. T. Campbell, of the Texas
Express. May smooth seas and favoring
winds be theirs all along life’s voyage to
that haven which is the end of all.

A Disabling Disease,
No disease which does not confine
man to his bed so completely unfits him
for business as dyspepsia. When the
stomach is foul, the brain is always mud-
dy and confused, and as the cares and
anxieties of life are a sufficient burden
for the organs of thought to bear, with-
out being tormented by the miseries
born of indigestion, it is highly desirable
for the brain’s sake, as well a3 for the
sake of every other portion of the sys-
tem, that the disordered stomach should
be restored with the utmost dispatch to a
healthy, vigorous condition. This ob-
ject can always be accomplished by a
course of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters,
the purest and best of vegetable specifics,
which evacuates the morbid humors
through the bowels, rouses and tones the
torpid stomach, and regulates the liver,
imparts firmness to the nerves and clears
the sensorium of its mental cobwebs.
Persons subject to attacks of indigestion,
billious headache, irregularity of the
bowels, sickness of the stomache, or
“the blues,” should take the Bitters once
or twice a day throughout the present
season, mal-lw

Another Life Saved.
J. C. Gray, of Dadeville, Ala., writes
us: “I have been using your Dr. Wm.
Hall’s Balsam for the Lungs, and I can
say, of a truth, it is far superior to any
other lung preparation in the world. My
mother was confined to her bed four
weeks with a cough, and had every at-
tention by a good physician, but he failed
to effect a cure; and when I got one bot-
tle of your Dr. Wm. Hall’s Balsam for
the Lungs, she began to mend right away.
I can say in truth that it was the means
of saving her life. I know of five cases
that Dr. Wm. Hall’s Balsam has cured,
and my mother is better than she has
been for twenty years.” ma25-lw

A Remedy for Lung Diseases.
Dr. Robert Newton, late President of
the Electric College, of the city of New
York, afid formaly of Cincinnati, Ohio,
used Dr. Wm. Hall’s Balsam very extin-
sively in his practic, as many of his pa-
tients, now living, and restored to health
by the use of this valuable medicine, can
amply testify. He always said that os
good a remedy ought to be prescribed
freely by every hisician as a sovereign
remedy in all cases of lung diseases. It
cures consumption, and has no equal for
all pectorial complaints. feb9-lw
