Miss Minnie Hunter, of Huntsville, is visiting the family of M. M. Cone. Solomon W. Wood, member of the Farmers' Mutual Insurance association, has been paid his money for the loss of his building which burned a short time ago. The special election held yesterday was very quiet and orderly, there was no enthusiasm and no excitement.  The polls here were opened about 8 a. m., M. Gibney presiding with one judge and three clerks.  The class of voters mostly were middle age and old men; about eight or ten negroes and about the same number of foreigners voted. Following is the result: For the amendment                    71 Against the amendment              15 Total number of votes polled     86 Total voting strength of this precinct is 750. It is wonderful how few people were posted upon what the amendment was intended to amend.  This is truly the "Initiative referendum," that is, direct legislation by the people, which it always requires to amend the constitution.  But if the people don't take more interest than upon constitutional amendments it would be a failure. A Holloween party was given Monday night at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. M. M. Cone.  Several games were indulged in, such as bitting an apple afloat in a vessel of water.  The party was complimentary to Miss Minnie Hunter, of Huntsville. Miss Bettie Thomas, who has been visiting relatives in San Antonio and San Diego, arrived home last Wednesday. *************** 03 Nov 1898 Personal Mention Jno. A.
