Skxator Ikgalls has introduced a
bill providing for the appointment of
a commission of seven to examine and
report on the subject of railroad trans-
portation, with salaries of ten dollars
a day and traveling expenses. The
latter waB wholly unnecessary. The
railroad companies would see^to that.
Benjamin F. Butler, at present
governor of the Pnritans, can no
longer plume himself on the delusion
that "no man lias ever yet called him
a fool." His discontinuing his sub-
sciiption to the Boston Post—the most
reputable newspaper in New England
—for a pique, is a very silly thingtand
all mankind will call it foolish.
The cowardice of jurors is sharply
commented on by tho English press.
,\Vhcn a man recently, before taking
the oath, asked if the.court would pro-
tect the jurors, he was promptly ex-
cused from duty in the case and the
judge proceeded to rebuke the coward-
ly spirit.

At the Archiepiscopal residence in
Baltimore, on Sunday, the 7th inst.,
Miss Liazie McDonald, who for eleven
years had been a Sister of Charity,
was married to Mr. Patrick Moore, of
Washington City. During her sister-
hood she taught music in seminaries
at Mobile, Milwaukee, Chicago and
Mount de Sales, Baltimore. During
her serious illness church authorities
gave her father permission to remove
her to her home. On her recovery
she intended returning to the sister-
hood, but l^er father's illness pre-
vented. Afterwards on a visit to
Washington she met Mr. Moore. Khe
concluded to leave the sisterhood, re
ceived a dispensation to that efTect, re-
mains a devoted member of the
church, and was married by a Catho-
'lc P"e8t'
The railroad bill, introduced by Mr.
Moursund, to create a railroad com-
mission, provides for the appointment
of three commissioners, with clerk and
marshal, with power to enquire into
the condition of railroads as to security
and facilities for taansportation; to
require railroad companies t* furnish
access to their books; uiid liifuiiiiution
as the commissioners may desire; to
report to the attorney general for pro-
secution of all violations by railroads
of their charter, and to report to the
legislature their official actions and
such suggestion* as they may deem de-
sirable. The bill imposes penalties.
The provision that denies the com-
mission of executive power and re-
quires report to the legislature of their
official actions with suggestions, de-
stroys the life of the ^U1 and raises the
suspicion that it is conceived in the in-
terests of the railroads. Without re-
medial executive power a commission
will be valueless to the people 'and
harrassing to the railroads.

An insurance company In New York
sold on Tuesday $2,000,000 of 4 per cent
bonds at 5}, believing it can handle the
money to a better advantage than th*
bonds. This is only a straw, but it in-
dicates the want of a little more money
afloat.
The merchants of New Orleans have
formed a company to build an elevated
railway along the entire river front of
the city. It is to be twenty-five feet
high, and built in the most substa^ial
manner with a double track.
Jolnt resolutions have been introduced
in the two hcuses of the Kansas legis-
lature to submit a proposition to the
general election, in ISSr', to amend the
constitution by striking out the "pro-
hibition" clause. That is probably a
Democratic measure.
All the prisoners who escaped after
breaking open the jail In Miller county
yesterday, are still at large, except Ed
Garrett, a negro sentenced to be hanged
for wife murder on the 27th of tli's
month. H* was heavily Ironed and
was soon captured.
The Incendiaries, who fired the citv
calaboose in Palestine Tuesday night,
were soon recaptured and put In
stronger quarters in the county jail.
In place of repairing the Injured build-
ing. the city had better build a new one
fire proof.
The Chicago Press Club, a notable
strong organization, cordially invites
members of the press everywhere and
their ladles to attend the club's annua1
banquet, February 20, in that city, and
notify the financial secretary of the
club, room 5, Grand Pacific hotel, of
such intention. A hearty welcome is
assured.
A goat ranche is about to be estab-
lished ndar Abillne, by Mr. McGhee.
Texas has her cattle ranches, sheep
ranches, chicken ranches, goat ranches,
goose ranches, and ostrich ranches are
spoken of, but little is heard of hog
ranches. Meanwhile back-bone, spare-
ribs, tender-loin and sausages are Im-
ported from the east and north.
When Mr. Douglass' bill passes, mak-
ing the theft of a hog a felony, Texanfe
will have a strong Inducement to rais*
their own pork. If the swine is not
over-rated something will have to be
done about the present law making the
theft of anything under the value of $20
a mldemeanor. Legislators are learning
a new lesson 1b domestic economy—
"How to preserve pork."
Mr. T. J. Hall, of Crockett, acci-
dentally shot and killed himself, yester-
day, while In an altercation with a
negro, Henry Morris. Mr. Hall's pistol

through his leg, severing the main
artery. He fired two Bhots at Morris

The absconding secretary of the Al-
blon and other mining companies of
California, Mr. D. B. Chlsbolm, hardly
carried enough to make escape an ob

he took money to cover hi* margins.
He is supposed to have taken passage
in an Australian steamer yesterday.

Miss Garrisoh, of St. Louis, in addi-
tion to the painfnl notoriety consequent

Sounds from the Capital
The intelligent and well-informed
Austin correspondent of the Galveston
News furnishes among others the fol
lowing legislative notes:
The passage of Governor Ireland's
message to the effect that legislation af-
fecting railroads and other large Inter-
ests should be entered upon in a spirit
of perfect justice, and afcer matured
consideration of the rights and equities
involved, meets with general approval.

ers and capitalists that it is worth mon

The Great Mogul.
l'l>e following good story comes from
a quarter where are assured "its cor-
lecvuess can be vouched for." Many
years ago, at an occasion of a great cere-
mony, Windsor Castle was honored with
the presence of th^ee sovereigns. After
breakfast the three potentates walked
and talked on the "Slopes," and were,
of course, In "mufti." They were.de-
lighted with the grounds, and presently
entered into conversation with the gar-
dener, whe evidently took them for a
party of "gentlemen's gentlemen" out
bra stroll. After some little afiable
talk, he could not resist the query:
Now, who may you gents ber"
Well," said the spokesman, "this
gentleman here happens to be the King
of Prussia, that one standing by
oil is the Emperor of Austria; and as
: "or myself, I am the Emperor of Rus-
sia." This was carrying the joke too
far, thought the gardener; "I've seen
a lot of queer furrln gents here lately,
so he burst out In
rather a rude guffaw. "Well, my
friend," said the Emperor Nicholas,
"you seem amused: perhaps you will
tell us who you are." "Oh, certainly,"
so taking up the skirt of his coat with
the action of a great eagle spreading
out his wings, and spinning around on
his he^ls, he said: "if you are all what
you say you are, why I am the great
Mogul!" The three majestlci

tbree-centB-a-uiile bill, than anything
that has occurred in years in public af-
fairs in Texas.
The house committee on lands and the
land office this afternoon had under dis-
cussion bills to regulate the sale and
management of public lands. It wa*
concluded to make no report until the
subject is still further canvassed. The
sense of the committee is . decidedly in
favor of a joint meeting of committees
of both houses on public lands and edu-
cational affairs to tak* measures to
formulate a bill covering the whole
questions of schools and school lands,
their sale and management. This
proposition will be submitted to the
senate committees, and, if they agree,
the next step, after a full discussion or
the matter, will be reference of the sub-
ject to a sub-committee. The house
committee on public lands will recom-
mend a separate bhreau for the control
and sale of Bchool lam's, but views
differ as to whether this bureau shall be
made a part of the general land office
or be organized as a distinct department
of the government.
Gov. Ireland to-day met his numer-
ous callers, who come to urge or oppose
appointments, with courtesy and con-
sideration, and to Jill, so far as the best
information obtainable shows, he em-
phasized the idea that he would take
no steps that would conflict with tbe
policy of civil service reform In its
strictest application.
R. Mahoner, the enrolling dlerk of the
house, has classified members as fol-
lows : Lawyers, 47; farmers, 28; physi-
cians, 6; merchants, 7; ministers, 3;
teachers, 3; stock-raisers. 8; editors, 4;
total 100. The senate has been can-
vassed, and Is found to have 25 lawyers,
3 farmers, 2 merchants, 1 stockman, and
1 banker.
The principal fpllowers of Gov. Ro-
berts, Blnce hearing the inaugural, have
a very bad taste in their mouths; such
exclamations as that: It Is In bad
taste; it is intensely egotistical; it is
cruelty to animals; it gives tbe 0. a.
hades; he has read The Galveston News;
he has raised an intensely bitter opposi-
tion in the legislature, are heard every-
where among the outs. The Ireland
men are Jubilant over his out-
spoken condemnation of the mistakes of
ine past administration, and seem dis-
posed to go actively to work to repair
what is possible to oe mended by legis-
lation. His friends say that since it was
widely published, even before his nomi-
nation, that he condemned the policy of
buying state bonds at 40 percent, prem-
ium, and Just upon the eve of the meet-
ing of the legislature the treasury and
sohool board spent $200,000 in paying 40
per cent, premium on a bond purchase,
it was just exactly right and proper to
repeat bis views upon such policy In hi*
inaugural. The action of tbe treasurer
under tbe circumstances was by aome
considered as an affront to the Incom-
ing governor at tbe school fund's ex-
pense, which it was timely to resent,
since upon tbe meeting of the legisla-
ture nearly every Industrious member
has some kind or proposition to change
constitution with respect to the pw

vision regulating investments of the

The Pension Office.
During the last session Senator Beck
Introduced a bill calling upon the Com-
missioner of Pensions for a complete
list of pensioners, with their disabilities
and postoffice address. Commissioner
Dudley stated to-day that he bad begun
work on the preparation of this list.
Over 300.000 names are to be compiled.
Mr. Dudley thinks that by bard work he
can have the list prepared before the ad-
journment of the present congress, yet
lie expresses Bome doubt about Its com-
pletion in the time Boecified. As the
period since the war Increases there is
rather a remarkable gain in the number
of applications for pensions. Of late
they have averaged about 2,800 per
month. Many of them are brought by
persons of old age, who .are discovering
that they are ntnlcted with diseases con-
tracted during their term of service.
Common complaints are rheumatism and
malaria. ,
Tho commissioner say that fraudulent
cases are not as common as formerly.
He came across one, however, a few
day ago. A Pennsylvanian wanted a
pension, claiming rheumatism as his
disability. He stated that a neighbor
to him was getting a pension be-
cause of having that disease. Investi-
gation proved that the neighbor had
been severely wounded In a battle. An-
other man, also from Pennsylvania,
wanted a pension Beemingly on general
principles. A general under whom this
man served stated that the seeker for a
pension had never gone forward in an
engagement. Always by some means
lie could find out when a battle was con*
templated and would manage to have
something to do in the rear. This so-
called soldier. after pay day, also man-
aged to get by gambling all the money
that his comrades received.
Tbe January
From the Providence Journal we learn
that,January has little planetary excite-
ment to create a stir upon its records.
But there, are always Incidents enough
to reward the research of those who
love to watch the planets as they roll
their ceaseless course around the sun.
Mercury is to be picked up In the even-
ing Bky. Venus Is to be admired as in
the morning sky she heralds the dawni
in her brightest phase, or patars near
the star Eta Ophluchl in her course.
Jupiter and Saturn present pictures of
marvelous beauty throughout the month,
leading the brilliant host that makes the
January Bky the most charming of the
year for its exhibition of starlit beauty.
These are the planetary aspects thai}
may be enjoyed by every observerof the
heavens. Those who have accoss to
telescopes will find the opportunity spe-
cially favorable for beholdjnfj
tic Jupiter with his brilliant
furious spots and quartettes, of shining
moons, and the magnificent Saturn witl,
his paler belts, his marvellous rings and
his many moon*. .
