How the News Was Received in
Brasoria—Oonkling*s Admir-
ers Predicting His Re-
turn to Power.
Last Friday Deputy Sheriff James R.
Phillips of Columbia passed through Bra-
soria, and stopped at the Ikdepeudknt
office, and imparted the sad intelligence
that President Garflehl was dead. Mr.
Phillips had come from the Bryan neigh-
borhood, and heard the report there, ss
the news had been brought over from Gal-
veston, the same as was telegraphed by
the New \ ork stock brokers to Liverpool
and other places, hence his statement was
considered authentic, as our Wednesday's
account hail already reported him as rap
idly Binking.
Mr. Phillips being a reliable yonng man,
and the news coming so straight, war-
ranted ns in circulating the report. The
editor never having been known to tell an
untruth (unless it was absolutely neces-
sary or convenient) was quoted as au-
thority for the statement. Of cou^e ev-
ery one thought the president was dead.
Those deeply interested expressed their
sorrow, and generally exclaimcd, "I told
you so. I knew he would die." There
were some who, while thev sincerely re-
gretted the president's death, could not
help but exult that Conk ling, the Plumed
Knight, would now retrieve his lost for-
tunes, as Arthur would now be president,
and would remember his friend Conkling.
The Joy ot Cnnkling's friends was so great
that the subject ot the death of the presi-
dent sank out of sight, and discussions ran
high as to Conknng's future intentions.
Some thought that Conkling would now
be.Arthurs secretary of state with Gar-
fie'ei's cabinet except Maine. When tlie
mail came in a few hours later, and the
cheeerin<r news came that Uartfdd was
not dead but probably sleeping, his best
friends heaved a sigh of relief; and the
Conkling party excused the matter by

Bill Woods at the Bar.
The trial of Bill Woods and Tom
Brown for the cutting of the negro
woman last Wednesday night oc-
enpied a conple of days in Justice
Kuler's court this week, A. E.
Stratton and M. J. Ilickev appear-
ed for the dcfence and J. II. Norris
and S- M. Walsh for the prosecu-
tion. Tom Brown was released
from custody and Bill Woods was
bound over in the snm of $3f>0. A
great deal of interest was taken in
this case, as it was doubtful a s to
who did the cutting. It was prov-
en on the witness stand that the
nile belonged to Tom Brown, but
the general supposition in that Bill
Woods was the guilty party. A
voluminous amount of testimony
was taken, and very near all con-
flicting. The woman herself gave-
in testimony contradictory, while
those present could hardly tell a
straight story. The whole thing
is wrapped up in mystery.
Choir Meeting.
The choir meeting last Friday night at
a-ena* wm pleasant nflair.
' tfessrsTRieajWrels, Sharp, Stevens and
Goldbeck discoursed some excellent mu-
sic. Their rendition ot several very diffi-
cult pieces was highly appreciated by the
audience. Mr. Rice is a musician of con-
siderable proficiency, playing with great
skill on the violin, cornet, piano aud other
instruments. Sites Emma Lee Sogers
was present and again laid the treasures
of her Seraphic strains before a Brazoria
audience. The duet by Mis<* Carrie Wil-
son and Mr. Frank Stevens was a splendid
musical performance. The sinking by
Mrs. Stevens, Miss Sogers, Miss Carrie
Wilson, Messrs. Goldbeck, Rice and Frels
was greeted with rounds of applause by
the audience. Last, but not least, was the
contribution to the evening's pleasures by
Mr. Goldbeck with his ''zither," a small
instrument, very soft in tone, sweet and
Melodious as the ^Solian harp. If their
is any one who can make a house full ot
people feel at home ft is Mrs. Stevens.
Choir meets again to-night.

jiar Is not an exception. Bat, af
ter. aB, it bids fair to bring
to old flinssris a splendid yield of
fwl a very fair amobnt of
eon. Considering the subjeet in
the Hgfc* of subsequent events we
Bave no canse to complain.
The cutting of the negro woman
in Brazoria last week is only one
of tbe many evidences of the dan-
ger that females are placed in when
tbe male memliers are absent from
home. It is strange that we are
not compelled to chronicle more of
occurrences. Both of these
negroes should have been shot
down—oue for trying to commit
nrarder, and the other for being on
fiy+rtdd"** pound at an'hour of the
night when all honest people
should have been asleep.

New Photographer.
Prof. Louis Kice, a photographer of
Victoria, arrived in our town from Mata-
gorda last Thursday, where be has been
photographing for some time. He has
located his place of business north of C. J.
Tldeteu's drug store. Mr. Rice comes well
recommended, and his work demonstrates
his knowledge and proficiency In that line.
The Protestor and bis wile are accomplish-
ed musicians, and they expect to contrib-
ute a full share to our town daring their
stay.
(Sen. Howard, the right-of-way agent
of the Palmer-Sullivan narrow guage rail-
road arrived In town Monday evening
looking after the interest of bis road. Af-
ter giving the General ample time to eat
his sapper at the Westervelt house, a rep-
resentative of the IjfDEPKNDEirr called and
proceeded to interrogate him in regard to
the road running through our country.
It did not take the reporter long to find
out that he had a very intelligent, dis-
creet and well informed man to talk to.
After passing the compliments of the
evening the conversation was soon turned
to the subject of railroads and railroad
building. The General expressed his
ideas very freely about different matters
connected with the great syndicate, but
requested that what he had already said
should not be given to the public. Prom-
ising him that he would not publish any-
thing that he did not desire, the reporter
informed him that the Indepkxdkxt
woidd t>e glad to give to the public any
information that he had to impart.
•'Can you inform us whether the road
will run through this section, and where
it will cross the Brazos f" asked the report-
er. "Do you tnteud to cross as low down
as possible f"
"'The road will cross at a point that will
be most convenient to reach Galveston.
We lire looking for the nearest and cheap-
est route. II the route by Columbia is the
cheapest it will run there. Mr. Maddock,
the chief engineer, is now locating the line,
taking the "kinks" out, as we would more
appropriately term it, and in a few days I
can give you a dcflinite answer as to where
the road will run."
"Are you satisfied that your road will
ran through this section. General V
"From the fact that this company has
had a surveying corps in this country for
some time at a cost ot §100 a day. I can
safely say to your people that the Paiuier-
Sullivan company are not doing this for
nothing. When Mr. Maddock has finished
his survey it wiii be submitted to tiie com-
pany now in the North, and they will de-
termine what shall be done—the route
thev will take."
"J saw in the Houston Ape some time
ago an account of tiip rumored purchase
of the New York, Texas & Mexican, or
what is better known as the Ilungerfonl
road. (Jan yon inform me if this is true'?'
I know nothing ot snch purehue. I
haw hoard nothing ofitatall."
What do you think of our prospects
for a harbor if'"'
"I think the prospect? arc very favorable
to a successful breakwater. I have always
believed from iny own knowledge of the
•Sver that the channel could be deepened,

and located on Oyster Creek. I have al-

to 40 feci of water Irotn Columbia down to
the bar. 1 learned while on my way down
that Col. JIanstield had sent a surveying
corps over here to ascertain the actual
dcptii of water, as it had not been correct-
ly reported."
An the reporter had other bnsiwss. and
Gen. Howard expressing hfs intention «>f
remaining a couple of days, he hade him
