TEXAS DEMOCRATS GATHER. SENSATIONAL charges against STATE OFFICIALS. Thomas Alleged That Certain Offl eials Had Tried to Secnre a Settle meat of the Cae Agaimt the \\ atera-Pleree Oil Cos. for Violation of the Antl-Trnat Law—Contention \dlournnl Until O O’clock To-day. Waco, Tex.. Aug. B.—Promptly at ?2 o < lock to-day the Democratic State Con vn.tion was called to order by Executive Chairman C. K. Bell of Fort Worth, in the Auditorium, which,with its seating ca pacity of 5.0C0, was filled to overflowing. A conspicuously noticeable feature of the gathering was that all the party lead ers:. including every man of any political prominence in the state, was present. After the Invocation and a short talk by Chairman Bell the convention imme diately settled down to business. In the contest for the temporary chair manship. Marshall Hicks of San Antonio, was elected, and James Hays Quarles of Fort Worth selected as secretary. After an address by the temporary chair man aud the appointment of the usual committees, the convention adjourned un til p. m. A Sensational Charge. A lively sensation was developed at a late hour last night in the form of a lengthy interview with County Attorney Cullen F. Thomas of MoLennon countv, in legard to the Waters-Pierce Oil Com piny controversy. Thomas had charge, and conducted the prosecution against the <ompany ter violating the anti-trust law. Mr. Thomas’ charges were sensational, he i aving declaied that two congressmen and other state officials had made over tures to him for a settlement of the pro ceedings. both legal and criminal, against the company. At the afternoon session, during the wait for committee reports Hon. Joseph W. Hailey was called on. He responded in a very emphatic address, denying the ac cusations of his connection with the Wa ters-Pierce Oil Oomp.ny’s affairs, and denounced his accusers in the severest term. He upheld the issuance of the char ter. saying it was just and right. His ex planation was well received and he seem ed to have the majority of the delegates with him. Ex-Gov. Hogg Took Part. Ex-Gov. Hogg responded to repeated calls and severely arraigned members of the state administration for the issuance of a charter to the Waters-Pierce Oil Company after the company hod been con victed for violation of the anti-trust law. Ex-Attorney General Crane also criticised the administration along the same lines. The entire afternoon session was con sumed in the debate over the Waters- Pierce OH Company affair. Hon. T. E. Bmith, attorney general, was the last speaker, in his own behalf. The commit tees not being ready to report, the con vention adjourned until 9 a. m. to-mor row. A resolution was passed to send- the following telegram to W. J. Bryan at Indianapolis: "Resolved, That the Democracy of Texas, in convention assembled, sends greetings to William Jennings Bryan and beet wishes for the succes of his efforts for the preservation of the republic and the liberty and human rights enjoyed thereunder."

The word "conceit" has drifted down, down. down, from a happy and respec.a ble origin to the level of vanity and pride, vainglory, egotism, self-sufficiency, self complacency. When we see a person puff ed up with an undue sense of his own importance we remark that he is plumed and Inflated with conceit. Sooner or later we grow to despise him. But conceit used to be synonymous with brilliant ideas, thoughts or images. In the older books we read of happy conceits. The ablest writers were full of them. Plainly, a conceit was a conception of something sparkling and witty. Words may become degenerate as well as men. however, ho here we have something for Nordau to struggle with. I have heard able men say that President Garfield was the most conceited person that ever held exalted office. When giving audience to the leading statesmen of his day he would seat himself before a large mirror and regard his handsome physiog nomy for hours with the keenest satisfac tion. Instead of listening to what his vis itor had to say he would be stroking his mustache or arranging his beautiful beard in most becoming fashion. Able bodied, puissant, virile, he believed himself in vincible among men; handsome, well pro portioned. magnetic, he knew that he was irresistible among women. One of the brighter men in public life is James Hamilton I.ewis, the blond Adonis of the Northwest. Although only 37 years old. he has served a term in the House of Representatives, been a terri torial senator, a nominee for Governor, a nominee for I'nited States Senator, and a candidate for Vice President in two Na tional Conventions, receiving the votes of Oregon. California. Washington and Ala bama in Chicago in 189*5, and those of his adopted state in Kansas City In 1900. De srriptlonists of a professional type have endeavored persistently to make Ham Lewis' whiskers resemble those of Copper King William A. Clark of Montana, but as a matter of fact there Is not the slight est suggestion of similarity. Clark is Irish and fiery of complexion, while his hirsuteness Is carroty and savage, his head covering a shock of red wheat straw and his chin whiskers a strawberry colored whisk broom. Mr. Lewis' whiskers are fashioned after the heards of ex-Mayor Hugh Grant, Tom Crimmlns. John M. Bowers and Capt. Je rome Byron Wheeler. The man he mist resembles here Is Vice President Shepard of the American Bank Note Company. His hair and whiskers are several shades lighter than Clark's, the former being trimmed in a civilised way, while the lat ter look like two auburn windrows of well-cureel timothy. When men socially Inclined see Lewis approaching they slip away Admitting his cleverness and even brilliancy, they find him an Insufferable bore because of his Inordinate vanity. He will pose for you by the hour. He loves hi* looking glass better than hi* soul. He Is exceptionally handsome, and knows ll better than anybody else. He dresses to kill. i Another conceited statesman Is rhe young senator from Indiana. Mr. Albert Jeremiah Beveridge. In the course or his first speech In the Senate he rear ranged his spit-curl no less than 178 times. —MM.

DISOBEYING ORDERS It Take* Nerve In n Soldier to Do This Sort of Thing. Prom the Cincinnati Enquirer. Literal obedience to the military orders of the general conuunnding an army in baule has always been considered a sol dier’s duty. By soldier is not only meant the man in the ranks, but the officers In command of a regiment, a brigade, a di vision or a corps, as the case may be. Obedience to orders issued from the headquarters of the commander responsi ble for the plan of battle has ever been regarded as the first duty of those subor dinate in rank, but in charge of separate units of the whole. Disobedience to orders emanating from such authority during the stress of conflict Is a crime punish able with either death or courtmartlal, the severity depending upon the loss sus tained or the sertousneas of the result due to a non-oompiianee with the orders received. There are many instances on record, however, which go to show that the officer In supreme command not hav ing all the details of ihe vast field of oper ations well in hand, or perhaps misjudg ing the situation: or, again, acting upon misleading information, has given such orders to a subordinate having command of an important number of troops and holding a position of great value, which, if thej' had been implicitly obeyed, would have entailed disaster, and the very result desired would have been impossible to ac complish. thus turning a possible victory Into defeat. It requires a man of strong will power and self-reliance to either disobey or quietly ignore a command given him by bis chief during the stress of bottle, but there are cases on record, and well attest de, showing there can be found a man occasionally who has had the hardihood to act on his own responsibility at a critical juncture, even in direct opposi tion to the plainly given and plainly un derstood directions of his superior. One need not go further back in history than the recent short campaign that resulted in the American victory at San Juan, Cuba, during the late Spanish-Amerlcan War. It is a matter of history that the affairs of neither El Caney nor of San Juan would have occurred had not Gen. Lawton and Gen. Wheeler acted in di rect opposition to the instructions of Gen. Shafter. the commander-in-chief, who for some inscrutable reason did not wish to bring on a general engagement. These instructions were, however, ignored, those officers being in a better poeitlon to judge of the situation than their commander, six miles In the rear, and the consequence was the assaults were made and the Americans won. On a par with this is another historical fact that Shafter notified the war depart ment previous to the engagements in question that he intended to fall back to a point that would be a retrogade move ment as far as the coast, a virtual re treat. Before such a move could be car ried out, however, others on the field took the initiative, and thus spared the American people the humiliation of its army running away from the enemy for no good reason. How Nelson received the order to re treat given by Sir Hyde Parker at the battle of Copenhagen is one of the most stirring episodes of history. When it was communicated to him that the signal to leave off action had been hoisted on the Admiral’s ship, the London, he turned to Capt. Foley, who was standing at his side, and exclaimed: "Foley, you know I have only one eye I have a right to be blind sometimes!" Then raising telescope to his blind eye, he added: "I really do not see the sig nal!” Truly It is an 111 wind that blows no one any good, for the hero's blindness on that day placed a glorious victory to England's credit. When, during the terrific onslaught of the cavalry at Waterloo. Wellington gave orders that certain batteries were to be abandoned, and that the men were to take refuge within the squares. Cart. Merch ordered those under his command to stick to thHr guns. They obeyed, and with such success was their courage crowned that they repulsed three charges of the Horse Grenadiers with so great a slaugh ter that on the morrow the position they had held could be ascertained by the vast heaps of slain that lay around. At Victoria, In 1813. Wellington sent di rections to Lord Dalhousle to advance with the Seventh Division, supported by the Fourth and Sixth, and attack the bridge. The aide-de-camp.to whom was in structed the delivery of the order, chanc ing to pass Gen. Plcton, inquired of him whether he had seen Lord Dalhousle. "No, sir.” answered Plcton; "but have you any orders for me?" The other replied In the negative. "Then pray, sir. what orders do you bring?” And on the aide-de-camp telling him their purport, he added with extreme hau teur: “You may tell Lord Wellington for me, sir. that the Third Division, under my command, shall in less than ten minutes attack the bridge and carry it, and that the Fourth and Sixth Division may sup port me if they choose.” Then with a shout of "Gome on, ye rascals! Come on, ye fighting rfllains." he put himself at the head of his men and galloped forward to redeem his promise. Although Colonel—afterward Sir Henry —Hardlnge cannot be said at Aubuera to have acted In direct contravention to or ders. his assumption of command at a time when the commander of the allied armies, Gen. Beresford, had virtually ordered a retreat, would, but for Its re sultant success, have emailed on him se rious consequences. As it was, by ordering Gens. Cole and Abercrombie to advance with Iheir di visions he completely changed the for tunes of the day. and, by driving the French before him down the hill, con verted an almost certain defeat Into a brilliant victory. DOES COAT MAKE MA3i A Case In Illustration In * Baltimore Hotel. From the Baltimore Bun. Does the coat make the man? That is the question one of Baltimore’s pioneer shirt-waist men Is asking. It happened on one of the sizzling days of last week that this gentleman left his desk in the office of a large manufacturing firm and walked two blocks to the Hotel Rennert to eat his midday meal. Ho walked Into the cafe and seated himself at a table where he was attended by a waiter and wrote out hts order. Then came the first break In his plans to comfortably en joy his repast. The acting head waiter came up. and, calling Mm by name, snld: "I'm sorry, sir. but we are not allowed to serve gentlemen without coats." The would-be diner looked up In aston ishment. and then down at his costume. He wore a blue and white atrlped negli gee shirt with a neat necktie. The shirt was buttoned down the front, had no opening at the back of the neck to gape, was without a bosom and fll him loosely enough to be comfortable and at the same time preserve some of Its freshness. He wore no suspenders, a belt taking their place, ami as he said yesterday In con versation with a reporter of the Sun, had no doubt that he looked better without hla coat than with it on that hot day. Said he: "The costume I wore was one In which I would not hesitate to appear in my own home, before my family. 1 would sit on my front poreh or sit at my own table In it. Certainly In the cafe where none but men are served there could be no objection to the propriety of such a costume." But the waiter was Inexorable. Unfor tunately the manager of the hotel and his assistant were out at the time, so there Satisfaction is unusual with " Five Cent cigar smokers,” but it has been the every day experience of hundreds of thou sands of men who have smoked Old V lrginia Cheroots during the last thirty years, because they are just as good now—in fact, better than when they were first made. Three hundred million Old Virginia Cheroots smoked this year. Ask your own dealer: Price, 3 for 5 cents. e NOTHING LIKE IT!
