flffiETTC 50P BECAUSE ITS THE BEST, MADE THE BEST OF NEWS. WITHIN THE NEXT FOBTY DAYS WE ABE TO HiVE WATEB AND LIGHT. Oar Own Syitem Will Then Be in Aotive Operation and he Pnmpi Out at the Dam Will Be at Work The Dy. i samo Will fie Going Alio. May 5, 1890, was a memorable day In Austin.

It was memorable for the reason that on that day the citizens of the City of the Violet Crown voted to build a granite dam across the Colorado river that would furnish motive power for thousands of factories and would furnish the city water and light. Well, the deed was done on that day and ever since then the eyes of the world have been on Austin and her granite dam as one of the wonders of the world. The dam was built and for over two years we have now enjoyed the pleasures of an inland lake, have had our regattas and all other sources of amusement. Our dam was not built solely for amusement, however, and we are now reaching that point where we are about to de-1 rive benefits from the business part of the transaction. Notwithstanding the set backs we have received from those accidents which are liable to happen under any circumstances, we are now once again on our feet.

In fact, within the next 30 days possibly, and at least within 00 days, the citizens of Austin can claim with pride that she has a water system of her own. The big street mains will all be in the ground by the middle of this month and then there will be nothing to do but finish up the power house. That is expected to be completed in its entirety within the next 30 or 40 days, and then the pumps will be started 1 rnTW.alil mill C1UU LliO YCllCii3 Ul J-Jtbl? ALA OikliLtm nui be sent GUSHIifG THROUGH THE PIPKS and Austin will be the proud possessor of her own system of waterworks. In order that the pumps may be placed In position and made ready for immediate use, the board of public works has authorized the contractors at the dam to finish up the wall on the southeast end of the power house immediately so that the pumping engines can be placed in readiness for immediate use as soon as the balance of the foundation can be completed, which it Is expected will be done within the next 30 days. As soon as the foundation is all in the pumps will be started to working and tbe long wished for water system of Austin will be in active operation.

The board desire the enginea placed iu position now so as to save time when the foundation is completed, and as the portion of the power house where they are to be located is all ready for their reception they will be placed there immediately. As soon as the foundation is completed it is also the intention ot the contractor to conv struct another draft tube immediately so as to get an electric dynamo in working order for the purpose of lighting the towers at once. In talking with one of the board yesterday a S'iATESMAu reporter was informed that without any exaggeration and giving a fair time in which to complete the work, the water and light system HERE is but one wav in the worm to dc of having the best paint, and that is to use only a well-establish' brand of strictly pure white lead, pure linseed oil, and pure colors.

As the convention will meet next Tuesday it is presumable he will stay in the commission office tending the duties thereof until at least next Saturday. As soon as he got in yesterday moruing he began kicking about the newspaper reporters, one in particular, saying they couldn't tell the truth, etc. The poor misguided wretches known as reporters are necessarily downhearted at this rebuke from the old Roman and would fain seek some solution as to why he should abuse them. The only reason they can find for his abuse is that these misguided reporters have in counting up the returns given the judge more instructed votes than he is justly entitled to. 11 Bucn be the case the boys have certainly lied on the judge outrageously and should be made to publicly apologize.

Cleveland, Aug. 7. The Lake Shore express 12, arriving from the into the union station this morning after having enjoyed a most thrilling experience on the plains of Indiana.

An attempt was made last night to hold up the train at Kessler upon the identical spot that tbe train was held up last fall. The train was just approaching a split switch at Kessler when the engineer noticed that the switch was turned so as to run the train on the siding. A big obstruction of ties and lumber was piled up on the siding a few rods ahead of the engine. The obstruction did not appear to be impassible, and the engineer put on all the steam and dashed through the pile, passing safely on the main track through the split switch at a high rate ol speed. As the train passed through the station the engineer noticed a group of masked men who fired several shots into the train, none of which, however, took effect.

The United States express car was attached to tbe train and had on board a large amount of money. It is thought this was known to the desperadoes who tried to hold up the train. It was almost a year ago that baudits tried to hold up this same train at Kessler. The train reached Cleveland this morning ou time. Their First Hanging Allkxtown, P.i., Aug.

SHE HAO HER WEIGH. It Was a Posthumous Triumph, Hut It Was Hers Alt the Same. "When a woman makes her mind up to anything," said the man with the ginger beard, "they ain't no way of perventin' her from reachin' the end she aims at." "Thouten she dies, of course," remarked the grocer. "It does look to me," said the man with the ginger beard to the rash interrupter, "like you have the most natural gift of tellin' what you don't know every time you open your mouth of any man I ever knowed.

I will admit," continued the man with the ginger beard, as the grocer assumed a humbled expression, "that you are all right in the grocery business. Fact is, a man would have to be pretty smooth to make a livin' out of tho kind o' stock you keep.

She was mar-rit to her third husband. They hadn't been marrit fer moe'n a week, I guess, before the old man begins twittin' her 'cause she was so thin, an' wonderin' why the Lord couldn't a-seen fit to make her weigh as much as his first wife. 'How much did the dear angel she asked him, kinder sarcastic-like, one day, when they had been jawin' a little more than common.

"Petrified, 1 suppose you mean," said the school teacher.

"Anyhow, I mean she had turned to rock. An' just fer curiosity they weighed her. Funny thing, too. She come exactly to that there one hundred and fifty-five pounds she alles said she'd git, and they won't never nobody make me believe that she didn't know what she was doiu' all the time." Indianapolis Journal. FASHIONS IN NAMES.

Return from "Fancy" Names to "Anne," "Jane" and "Martha." People are growing tired of the "fancy" names which have for some time been popular, and are reverting to "old-fashioned" ones such as Anne, Jane. Martha, etc. It is a very great pity to have any fashion in names, of which wc can not have too much variety; and to describe any in particular as "fancy names" is absurd, since many of the prettiest are of really more ancient origin than the homely ones quoted; and far from circumscribing our choice, the increase of population makes it most desirable to revive or invent more. When a large family circle of brothers and sisters and cousins marry, it often happens that several of the new members have the same name, and it is most tiresome having to explain, every time we alude to them, whether we mean this or that Edith or Ethel. With a little thought numbers of pleasant sounding words might be found which would serve admirably for appellations and tend to lessen the existing confusion.

The examining trial of Bob Miles, charged with killing George Steadman at Taylor, began at 1:30 p. m. yesterday and Is not yet concluded. There are numerous witnesses and it is probable the trial will consume the greater part of tomorrow. A motion for a new trial in the case ot Nath and Tabs Dever, charged with conspiring for train robbery, was argued before Judge Morris last night.

He waived decision of matter until today, when the motion was overruled. Attorneys ii the defense gave notice of appeal. This week will close the criminal docket. A large number of criminal cases have been disposed of, but lew of much general interest or Importance except the case of the Dever boys. Next week will be devoted to civil business, which will terminate the six weeks' term of the district court.

Commissioners' court will convene next Monday, at whioh time a petition will be presented asking for a local option election In the Round Itock and Hutto precinct, including six voting boxes. Local option is in effect in every precinct of Williamaon county with the exception of the above and the Taylor precinct. Those favoring prohibition are working to sret the entire county under the prohibition lawB. Cloudy weather has nrevailed for two or three days, with an occasional light shower. A nice rain fell this afternoon and Indications are for more yet.

Linn, trustee for the bondholders The sale was ordered by the San Antonio National bank, holder of some interest bearing bonds of the Lake Navaga- tion company of 1000 gold dollars each, given as collateral security. Holders of a majority of the stock in the old company were present at tbe sale, which took place in front of the court house at 1 o'clock p. Charles 8. Morse being the purchaser. Not much interest whs manifested as 1 was generally supposed Dr.

Morsj, who now holds 19 o( tbe 21 outstand ing bonds, would bid the boats in to secure his debt and perfect his title both of which he did for the sum ol $1100. Dr. Morse has been president of the Lake Navigation company since the middle of July, 1893, during rhlch time he haB so managed the allah'8 of the company that the floating indebt edness has been gradually reduced until at the time of the sale it was less than $1000, while at the time of the great break in tbe dam lust year the floating indebtedness amounted to several thousand dollars. The break in the dam was a hard blow to tbe prosperity of the lieu Hur, but she has waded through the struggle without a scratch and is now ready to enter upon what promises to be a success' ful future. Negotiations by wire are pending looking to the re-establishment of tbe dummy line to the dam, which tneabB business for the boats on the lake.

Mr. Vining and Mr. Brent-man lll doubt less soon become interested with Dr. Morse in tbe Ben Ilur and the dummy line, and then our people will have a renewal festivities at the lake. Soldiers Reunion, dpoclal to The Statesman.

Warren's, bid, whioh will be laid over a day oc bo for consideration. The question of the registration all voters at the next election has not been considered by the court aa yet. it is understood that the Bull creek people are going to get out an injunction restraining the commissioners' from having this road built In lieu of a bridge. They claim the bridge ia what they are entitled to, that it wili shorten the diatance to town materially and will In a small measure at least repair some of the inconvenience attendant upon the construction of the lake. In brief they are dead against the road question and intend to fight for the bridge through thick and thirx THAT BLESSED DIFFEBENII4L la Still Agitating the Bailroad Commii-aioneri and the Trafflo Maaagers.

The question of the differential bo-twen Houston and Galveston came up-before the commissioners again yesterday. In truth this question of the differential seems like Banquo's ghoBt to the extent that It will not down. Messrs.

Mr. Mitchell, represent ing itiniau Co. of Houston, rais ed the point that marine insurance companies threatened to raise the premium 10 cents per bale on account ot what he called country damage." He produoed letters without disclosing the author's name to the commission-to show this country damage bad lt origin moetly at Galvestou and attri buted It to defective wharf nourlritr and lack of coverlug and from abolition of the differential added this probable Increase in insurance would work a lots to the producer, as would reduce the price which nous- ton bu era would be able to pay for cotton in consequence. Mr.
