Austin, Texas, work of the 40th Legislature has been very laiKely, and hiti- dered no little, by of tin Ttouse of Ives with 11- iro metnbors; tho ceremonies attend- IriK inauguration of the new governor; and the trial of the liev. .1. Norri.s In the local criminal ulstrict court.

However only the ri.s trial remains to be finiahed and ts thought it will be out of the way within the week.
