SPECIAL ELECTION NOTICE.
§700 w
The attention of our readers is
directed to the proclamation, is-
sued by Joseph Ehlinger, designa-
ting (Toes.) the 5th of November
1901 as the date on which a spe-
cial election will be held, in the
regular election precincts of Fay-
ette County for the purpose of de-
termining if there shall be leyied,
at the discretion of the commission
court npon tbe property of tbe
County, a road tax, not to exceed
fifteen cents on the hundred dollars
worth of property. The levy of
such a tax will carry with it such
an insignificant expense to the in-
vidual that there will in all pro-
bability be no opposition what-
eyer to the measure, our people
however should not ignore or re-
gard the Aubject without interest
as it is of the greatest importance
to the puplic generally and a rep-
resentative vote throughout the
county be cast. Good roads pri-
marily benifit the farmer and any
condition that contributes to the
success of our agricultural interest
of necessity redounds to t he pros-
perity of all.
John Brosh of Per lit® & Co.,

Sunday.
Tuesday, tbe 15th of this month
will be a day of rejoicing for the
Catholic community of Schulen-
burg, since on that day Bishop
Forest of San Antonio will be
among them in order to adminis-"
ter confirmation. The Bishop will
no doubt be highly pleased with
tbe improvements the Catholic
church has received since his last
visit
Bishop Forest, like his prede-
cessor, is a son of France. He
was born 10 1838, studied theology
at the Seminary of Lyons, and af-
ter completing his course enlisted
in the service of the American
Missions. In 1863, he and more
than 50 missionaries, set sail for
tbe new world, where after a te-
dious and rough voyage on a sail-
ing vessel, they arrived at New
Orleans. It was about three days
after tbe city had been taken by
General Ben Butler, who refused
them admission at first, thinking
them to be perhaps French officers
coming to aid the struggling Con-
federacy. In May he departed
for Mexico, arriving at Bagdad,
from whence he went on foot to
Matamoras, where he crossed tbe
Rio Grande to Brownsville. From
thence he set out with a train ot
ox carts for San Antonio where
they arrived after a trip of three
weeke. Many were the exciting
and varied scenes, witnessed in
those days which wore both new
and astoundimng to the young
Missionary, fresh from college
and christian civilization. His
first mission was St Mary's, La-
vaca county, where the place of
whorship was a little log hut, and
his dwelling in harmony with it.
These however served as head-
quarters for many years during
which and since he has caused
many churches and schools to be
erected througout the district un-
der bis care. In the various un-
dertakings which was carried on
frequently under very adverse
circumstances, Father Forest
proved himself more than gener-
ous in giving over bis own means
and patrlmany and ever promptly
set the example of unselfishness
and industry by pulling off his
coat and doing any kind of labor
when neccessary, such as burning
lime, making mortar and even to
taking a five-yoke team of oxen
and going forty miles to haul such
for his church,
Upon the death of Bishop Neraz
in 1894, Father Forest was chosen
to succeed;him as toe third Catho-
lic Bishop of San Antonio. It is
computed that on the day of his
inauguration 25000 persons took
part in the procession. The work
be has accomplished, tbe good ho
bas done afnong all classes and the
general esteem in which he is held
bespeak his worth more eloquent-
ly than words. ,

SPECIAL NOTICE.
FIRST BIO OFFICE.
Washington, D C. October 7.—
President Roosevelt today ap-
pointed e x-G o v e r n o r Thomas
Goode Jones of Alabama to be
United States District Judge of the
middle and eastern district of Ala-
bama, to fill the vacancy caused by
the death of Judge John Bruce.
Ex-Governor.Jones always has been
a Democrat and was twice chief
executive of his State,. He wsb
Gen. Gordon's adjutant general
during the civil war. In 1896, as
a gold democrat he supported Pal-
mer and Buckner. It is under-
stood that Booker T, Washington,
the well known negro educator,was
one of ex-Governor Jones, suppor-
ters- The latter not only has aid-
ed Mr. Washington in his efforts to
elevate the negro, but opposed the
negro suffrage amendment incorpo-
rated in the Alabama constitution.
Representative Thompson of Ala-
bama, a Democrat, who learned
of ex-Governor Jones' appoint-
ment from the President himself,
ou leaving the White House ex-
pressed satisfaction ovor the Pres-
ident's actiou.
"Governer Jones," said he, "is
not only one of the ablest lawyers
in Alabama, but one of the most
prominent and highly esteemed
citizens of the State. This act of
President Roosevelt will place him
in the same high esteem in the
South as the late President Mc-
Kinley was held."
The Daily Chrouicle, with Mr.
Marcellus K. Foster as president
and managing editor and Mr. Chas.
A. Meyers as business manager, is
the name of a new afternoon paper
that, effective Oct. the 14th, will
be established at Houston. The
promoters of the new enterprise
are gentlemen who, by years of
faithful and practical experience,
have become conversant with the
duties devolving upon those re-
sponsible for the successful man-
agement of such a publication and
who possess both the essential in-
tellectual requisite and a com-
petency of cash with which to
make their efforts assured. The
Chronicle will be sold on the
streets of Houston and other near-
by towns at 2 cents per copy,
which is an innovation in Texas
newspaper circles.
The Sticker begs to acknowledge
receipt of an invitation to attend a
grand ball to be given by Mr. .J. J.
Vacek at Ammannsville on the
night of Sunday, Oct. 13tb.
