St. Lorn February 23. Additional
Information is received from Moomtleld
regarding the dismissal of the charges
against Frank James to the effect that
the case against the famous outlaw was
docketed In the Circuit court for to-day
but was quietly called up by rrosfcutlng
Attorney Shackelford on Saturday even-
ing Just at the close of court when no-
body was present except 'the otllcrrs of
tbe court the prisoner and his attorney.
Shackleford stated to the court when be
procured the removal of James from
Alabama to Missouri be was confident
he had sulllcient evidence to convict
him but since then his chief witness
Mr. Stopp of Kansas bad died and other
evidence wasmlssing. In justice there-
fore to the State and to tne defendant
helnoved that the charges one for ob-
structing a railroad the other for rob-
bery both at Ottovllle be dismissed.
The court granted tbe motion In a very
few words. There are no other charges
pendlnir against James In this State lie
Is therefore entitled to freedom. After
tbe prisoner was released he went to his
hotel where he received the congratula-
tions of a few friends who knew the ac-
tion of till court but he refused to be
. Justice ot the Peace is Inter-
viewed on This Subject.
Take ono consideration with another
the life of a San Antonio Justice of the
Peace Is not a happy one at least that Is
what Max Neuendorff says. Ordinary
civil business is easy enough; my crim
inal docket Is sometimes a bit interest-
ing but It Is the duties that devolve on
me In making olUclally an indissoluble
band between two souls with but a
single thought two hearts that beat as
one or think they do you know. I
could give you some tales concerning
marriages rich rare and spicy although
I have only been In Odlce a short time.
I will give you an instance: On Satur-
lay last I was asked by an adoring
wain named Domingo Martinez to cast
the beams of my Judicial presence on
tbe occasion of his marriage with a
eenorltn who wished her own euphoni-
ous name of Jesusa ltamon changed to lilt
1 agreed 011 one condition 1 sam 1 was
unwilling to rudely disturb love's young
dream for I had been there myself but
I generally charged (will never mind
how much I asked); anyway the young
nnd love sick youth grasped my mean-
ing and panned out. Saturday having
arrived. 1 tirocceded to n house on
El Paso street where the dark-
eyed maiden resided nnd knocked
at the door taking caro to arrange my
expressive features with a becoming
gravity suited to the solemnity of the
occasion. The tloor was opened and
with a grnndlsonlan bow I entered with-
in the precincts of the mansion; you
know the st)le of architecture on El
Paso street. An old Mexican lady en-
quired the purpose of my visit. Placing
my right hand In my vest nnd assuming
my most graceful pose 1 said: "Madsine
I think I am mistaken; does Miss ltamon
reside here?" In dulcet accents the dame
replied:" What the h em do you want?"
'1 come here to marry Miss Jesusn
ltamon." "Jly daughter I reckon" was
the response from the aged female.
"Will you get out of here you son of
a sea cook?"
"Madam." replied I severely "be
careful how you spenk to me I am
clothed in a garment of authority given
me by the free nnd Independent voters
of San Antonio."
"I don't care n d ."
"As the vlluperntlte dame uttered this
the daughter made her appearance from
the back yard where she and the man
she loved had been communing together
on an ash barrel. The senorltn had fine
eyes and beautiful hair and with a de-
lightful Innocence asserted she wanted
me to marry her she having arrived
at that period of life when' Ice-creams
without true affection had become dls-
tastelul. The old lady at this point
became very forcible In her remarks and
hit ma over the head with a frying pan
nnd applied her knees to my hinder por-
tion with nn nglllty remarkable In one
so advanced in years. Her method of
argument being too frequently Im-
pressed on iny frame I cleaned out and
told the girl to bring her swnln over to
the hack and I would perform. The
young man n ho was blushing and timid
followed the girl and under the baleful
glare of a hack lamp. I commenced
the ceremony but ere it was nnlshed
the tierce parent commenced to batter
'me wllh 11 frj log pnn and vituperation so
strongly I got Into the hack Incontinently
nnd went oil swearing that marriage
was not nn Institution at all. Love will
find out a way however. This young
couple came to the olllce yesterday
and got bitched. There that Is ore
of my experiences."

Captain G. W Polk's Opinion o( It
lor. Street Pavine Purposes -Scientific
Tests.
A I.iiiiir reporter this morning Inter-
rogated Captain (1 W. Polk formerly
Chief Engineer of tho Southern Faclfto
railway In regard to his recent visit to
the red granlto quarries near Burnet
Texas. The Ltnirr published an Inter-
view last week from Colonel Belknap
who visited the quarries about the time
or Captain Polk's visit and this fell with
such good effect upon thn people that
Captain Polk's say Is now given:
Question You have been to Ilurnet
quarries Captain; what are they nnd
what did you see?
Answer Yes; I went up there to
see the granite quarries recently.
I think tliero Is no doubt as to Its
being red granite; It Is very similar to
Scotch granite and there Is any quanti-
ty of It to be found there. The quarry
Is situated about 12 miles southwest of
Ilurnet In the mountains of the Back-
bone Valley creek. Tho stone crops up
Intervals through that section of
country. Tho quarry In question con-
sists era granite hill ICO acres In extent
and Its npex Is 75 feet high. Tliero Is
no soil on the top. Its bare regular and
stratified position offers every conven-
ience for quarrying It requiring no ex
plosive or ton snip ng anu tuocosi 01
ininlnglt Is t tins reduced materially and
It could be brought here and laid down
on our streets at an approximate cost
per superficial yard of J.2I.
(j. What do you think or Walter
Scott's communication In Saturday's
I.11111T. relatlvo to the granite pavemcntr
A. Well. I think Its kind or wild and
his estimate on the Aransas Pass road Is
about on n par with It.
i. miai are tue staying qualities tu
the granite?
A. me test 01 tins stone was mane uy
I he capltol commission through Colonel
one! and Major of Ordnance of tho
unneu states army at jsock liianu Illi-
nois. His test shows that It will stand
n pressure of 11S!II pounds to the square
Inch. Its weight per cubic rout Is 10.1
0-10 pounds. A block Immmeised in
water tor u nours suoweu nn auaurp-
Hon of only 11 grains.
(j. How could It be transported to
San Antonio?
A. It would have to be taken now uy
wagon rood to Ilurnet thence to Austin
by the Austin nnd Northwestern nnd
to San Antonio by the International and
Great Northern road. Very favorable
figures on transportation have been
given by these roads.
(J. What do you think or Colonel rtel-
kn up's Idea or securing the wasto gran-
ite that rails from the large blocks that
would be used for the State capltol It
the State agrees to use that material?
A. That was very praoticaoie anu eco-
nomical as In dressing the large blocks
them Is a preat deal or waste.
Q. About New Orleans streets they
nre paved with granite. A. The streets
are paved on an entirely different plan
from what they would be here. 1 know
something about It. for I have been In
New urleans. iney are paveu witii
largo blocks a foot square and of course
their prices tret worn smooth nnd become
the shape ot an Inverted basin nnd of
course wnen a urny or wngon runs over
them there Is n great deal of noise. The
Clan proposed here Is to lay smaller
locks which would be smoother and do
away with much or this objectionable
noise.
O. Which do you prefer. Individually
granite or wuou pannr
structlble whereas wooden pavement is
bound to take more or less moisture. One
granite pavement would wear out about
thrao wooden ones and It would be
healthier for the city and through tbe
moisture niter a time gases escape irom
the damp wood and It Is bound to be
unhealthy. This granlto will not require
much explosive force In mining ns when
1 saw it it uroko into ueautiiut suape
little dressing to bring It down to n surface.
POLK ON PIPER.
Questions and Answers In Regard
to Our Railroad to the Gulf.
A Light man tackled Captain G. W.
Polk on the always Interesting question
oftlie Aransas Pass road yesterdrty and
this Is what he said:
Question What do you think or the
building of the Aransas Pass road? Will
Piper give bond?
Answer I cannot tell. Hut If Piper
does not U. I.ott and I understand Hoss
and Harris nre In the Held. I don't
know even that Loft would do anything
but be la here nnd seems to be Interested
In It.
Q What do you think of tbe proposi-
tion of building the road by convict la-
bor? A 1 never beard anvthlnrr of it nnd
do not think there is anything in it.
We can get free labor aa cheap now ns
convict labor. There's one thing how-
ever convict labor Is always reliable
from one day'a end to the other. You'd
better Interview Mr. Ftper on the sub-
ject. FASHION THEATRE.
