PREPARING FOR SAM JONES
THE GREAT REVIVAL TEAT COM-
MENCES NEXT SUNDAY.
Beating Oapaoity for 8000 People, Who
Will Manage to Keep Awake—Re-
duced Railroad Rates,
Dalt.as, Tex., Mny 14.—Next Sunday the
Sam Jones revival will begin, and those
beat informed do not houitate to say that
will be away up in G. The preparations
that are being roude are equal to the
occasion, and that Is saying a good deal, for
the occanion many say will be one that Dallas
will remember for days and years. "Sam
Jones" says a churchman "uiay be criticized
and oven abused and called commonplace,
but it is now a matter of history that whon
he spends a couple of weeks in a town that
towns will know ho has been there. The
world has never produced an evangelist like
him and certainly will never produce another
one of his kind, and while thore are millions
of Jones that have existed in the past, that ex-
ist now, and barring the early destruction of
the world by tiro, will exist again; still, he is
one member of that numerous and interest-
ing family that will be identified when his
name is mentioned."
It would bo a waste of space to go into
particulars for the purpose of telling Texas
about him, for he has been here himself and
from tho day he struck Texas, some eight or
ten years ago until now, the people have
known him and have cussed and discussed
him. There is nothing mythical about him.
He is "a condition und not a theory ' that is,
he is Sam Jones aud not the Bill Jones that
the drummers tell about when they need a
name to uso in the newost story.
"And, then, it is settled that he is coming,
When?
Not next Sunday.
The fact Is, that the "H A. Harvey, Jr., of
Dallas" is not possessed of a more erratic
timo card than Sam Jones has.
But the meeting begins next Sunday just
the same and it makes very little difference
whether Brother Jones is on hand or not. It
is this way:
Sam Jones never goes it alone. He has
assistants, Kev. George Stuart and Brother
Exceli.
Next Sunday when the mooting begins and
the crowd is gathered, it will develop that a
washout has occurred and Brother Jones has
been delayed for at least twenty-four hours.
These washouts never fail, but Stuart will be
here just the same. Stuart starts on one train
and Jones on the next, and Stuart passes over
the bridge just before the washout and Sam
Jonos has to wait until the repairs are made.
But this need not keep anybody away, for
Stuart will be on hand, and nobody need think
that Stuart is not an evaiigoiist himself. Tho
fact is that he is a close second to Sain Jones
in evangelistic work, lin stands tho afternoon
"watch," in other words, and is guaranteed
not to put anybody to sloep.
Then Sam Jones will come and the big
meeting will be underway, and for two weeks
8000 people will crowd into the place to hear
this little sallow-faned Cartersville preacher,
who for fifteen years has occupied alone a
distinct place in evangelism.
As for the preparations, they are all right,
fhe old Tompkins warehouse, with a sealing
capaoity of 8000, is being fixed for the occa-
sion. There will bo 3000 chairs and benches
for tho other 5000. There will be no lounges
or sofas, becauso there will bo no chance to
sleep. No body over sleeps at one of Sam
Jones' meetings. An ordinary man can take
five grains of morphine and then keep awake.
Col. John H. Trayior. chairman of tho com-
mittee of arrangements, says satisfactory ar-
rangements for reduced rates have beon made
with all railroads entering Dallas. Tho plat-
form for the ministers and choir has been
completed and will seat GOO people. Mr. Ex-
celi writes that ho must have a good choir,
made up of first-otnsn singers.
Col. John N. Simpson has volunteerod to
provide the best accommodations of tho Wind-
sor hotel for Messrs. Jonos, Stewart aud Ex-
cell during their stay here at his own expense.
His proposition has been accepted.
Approves tho Governor's Cut.
Hon. John H. Trayior observed yesterday
to Kound About: "The whole state will ap-
provo of Gov. Hogg's partial veto of the ap-
propriation bill. The charitable and educa-
tional institutions are biennially clamoring
for more and more, although the legislature
did not have the firmness to resist the impor-
tunities of the friends and employes of these
institutions, at the risk, perhaps, of being
called penurious and non-progressive, yet the
govornor was equal to the occasion. Of late
years too many judicial officers seem to think
that they are entitled to stenographers or
clerks at the expense of the state. I consider
that the state has saved not over $331,000 by
this veto, but thousands of dollars in the future
by not making these unnecessary improve-
ments and additions. It is time for Texas to
calla haltin building asylumsandeducational
institutions. The present legislature is tho
beet for several years, and so far as I know
has no sins of omission or commission with
reference to its duty lo tho public. Vory few
of the members have any political or profes-
sional prominence in the state, which goos to
prove that practical business men aro bost
legislators. The men who make the most
noise in the legislature and hence appear most
numerously in tho newspapers accomplish tho
least, and aro not fitted for makinclaws. If
the presont body had provided sufficient ap-
propriations I believe it would have worked
no injury to have gone four or six yoars with-
out convening another legislature.",
Consul Du Itellet,
Mr. H. P. du Boliet of Dallas, recently ap-
pointed consul to IlheituB, Prance by Presi-
dent Cleveland, was born in New Orleans,Lu.,
in 1853. His father was a district judge in
New Orleans and by his mother he is con-
nected with the leading families of Vir-
ginia, be being tho grand-nophew of Chief
Justice Moncuro and also a descendant of
Chief Justice Marshall.
Mr. du Bellet, after taking a preparatory
course of studies in his native city, matricu-
lated in the university of Paris, France,
where he graduated In 1871. He then contin-
ued to reside in Paris until 1879, the represen-
tative of the receivership of the Memphis and
Pacific railway company. Leaving Frnnce
in 1878, he took up hiB residence at Weather-
ford, Tex., where he represented a French
corporation in realty business. He moved to
Dallas in 1885, where ho has since resided.
His wife is a nieee of IU. Rev. Dr. Comedy,
late Catholic Bishop of New York. Mr. du
Bellet is a member of the Episcopal church.
He is also a member of the Elks and a past
chancellor of the Knights of Pythias.
Rhoiins, tho seat of his consulate, is a his-
toric city ot Champagne—who has not hoard
of the vintage of champagne? Hero it wns
that Clovis was crowned in 496, on which oc-
casion the ampulla rhemensis, a glass flask
filled with holy oil, was brought down from
heaven by a dove. Down to Louis XVI all
tho French kings wore anointed with this oil
(which did not seom to work any great im-
provement in some of them), but during tho
revolution tho ampulla was broken and its
fragments were thrown away. A pious per-
son preserved one of the pieces containing a
little of tho original oil, and after tho restora-
tion of the Bourbons it was delivered to tho
archbishop of Rheims. Charles X was anoint-
ed with it and the oil then gave out.
It was in this historic city, too, that Joan of
Arc immortalized herself in the aunaiB of
history.
Kheims is t.ie center of trade in champagne
wine and of woolen, cotton and other manu-
factures, its annual transactions in woolen
goods alone being estimated at ovor 75,000,000
franos.
Mr. du Bellet on his return yesterday from
Washington was called on by a Nbwb repre-
sentative who asked him about his conversa-
tion with President Cleveland.
"I had no business conversation at all with
■ i CI ' " -
President Cleveland," said Mr. du Ballet. "I
merely callod on him and paid my respects.
I relied on tho strength of my papers for the
position with which tho president has honored
uio."
"Did you find many candidates awaiting
office at Washington?"
"Quito » largo number and from all the
states in the Union. Tho president is very
courtbous to all olHcoseokors, he giving them
an audienco from 9:30 in tho morning until 1
p. m. From 1 to 2 in the a fieriioon he goes
down stairs to the blue parlor and receives
citizens who oomo to pay their respects to
him."
"Gracious, Mr. du Bellet, President Cleve-
land must bo bored to death by officeseekers,"
tho interviewer exclaimed.
"I must say," returned Mr. du Bellet, "that
Congressman Abbott has boon exceedingly
kind and indulgent, and has worked faith-
fully in behalf of his constituents. Hit) room
is open to them at all times, day and night.
Not talking about my position, Dallas has no
right to com plain. It was honorod by the ap-
pointment of Judge Shopard to a position
that wns eagerly sought after by the promi-
nent attorneys of the District of Coluuibia
and by candidates from other points. I will
hore add that Judge Shopard's appointment
has given satisfaction to all the Texas con-
gressmen."
t_>lu conclusion, Mr. du Bellet stated that as
eoon as he wound up boiiio business in Dallas
ho would take his departure for Franoe.
Alliance and Orange.
Thb Nrws last Thursday publishod the call
of B. J. Kondrick for a meeting of the Farm-
ers' grand state alliance to be held in Dallas
May 27. In view of tho importance of the
movement Tun News gives space to the call
again:
Waco, Tox., May t, 1893.—1To the officers and
members of tho FarmuiV grand state uUlanco of
Texas; also of that oiomuut of the old alliance
men who do not approve the so-called alliance
ami has in the paBt and is still atllliating with a
political move to drug the noble order from the
puro principles upon which it wus first or-
ganized : 1, tho undersigned, by the authority in
mo vostod, do hereby call a meeting on May 27,
1893, at Dallas, Toy., at 9 a. m,, of all tho con-
servative oleraont of the alliances throughout
tho state to moot in conference at tho timo and
place above indicated. 1. To corridor tho ad-
visability of consolidating with the statu Orange,
that noble old order which has withstood tho po-
litical woasures of tho past and is now purely an
agricultural organization, working for the good
of tho laboring classes, 2. That in tho ovont the
body, when assembled, conciudo to adopt the
idea above indicated, then to authorize B. J.
Kondrick. president Farmers' grand stato alli-
ance, to unito with J. B. Long, worthy master of
tho Texas Btate Grange, in u proclamation an-
nouncing to tho two ordors officially tho terms
upon wliich the union is to be consummated.
Each mombor who hns in tho pa-.t atiiliatod with
either wing of the grand state alliunco is hereby
most cordially invited and urged to attend this
meeting. If not in person, bo suro to have a
representative present, for tho weal of tho toil-
ing masses can bo groatly ameliorated by a con-
tinued and more oxtonsivo union of tho farming
classes. All members of the UrJingo, actlvo and
dormant will bo welcomed as visitors and their
friendly counsels are solicited, farmers having
at heart tho true interests of agriculture must be
one in purpose as they aro ono in interest.
B. J. Kendkick, prosidont.
Pharmaceutical Association.
"At tho morning session Wednesday of the
state pharmaceutical association," observed
Dr. O. L. Williams to Round About, "it was
my pleasure and privilege to listen to quite an
animated disoussion elicited by tho reading of
a paper by my friend. Dr. Carlton of Austin,
and others on the subject of 'Giving Doctors
a Percentage for Their Proscriptions.' The
papers read and tho discussions which fol-
lowed placed upon the practice the stamp of
condemnation. The system is exceedingly
reprehensible and tends to lower the standard
of both the physician and tho pharmacist. I
want to indorse most heartily tue papers read,
but they are making an assault upon an evil
that is strongly fortified and will require much
heavier artillery than simple discussions,
which provide no remedy. Tho character of
the discussions was such that I certainly ex-
pected that half a dozen pharmacists would
rise to their feet and oiler and contend for
somo professional legislation looking to its
correction. But imagine my surprise when,
after much spirited discussion, one or mora
of the members aroso and asked that tho dis-
cussion be expunged from tho proceedings.
If such an evil oxists it is tho duty of pharma-
cists to unfurl their reform banner and appeal
to the medical profession to join them in a
crusade against it. The support of the medi-
cal profession can bo relied upon."
News' Sheriff*' Department.
"Tbh News Bherifl's department," re-
marked Mr. James M, Moredith, Ellis coun-
ty's sheriff, "is one of tho fineBt detective
agencies in the oountry. Not long since it
was the moans of capturing a horse thief in
my county two days after the crime was com-
mitted. A constable down near the Trinity
river read the notice I sent in and he ran
down the thief almost immediately. It looks
as if The News' sheriff's department is bet-
ter than the telegraph for detecting crime.
The Sheriffs' association of Texas never did a
wiser thing than in selecting The Nbwb as
the medium of communication on criminal
matters. It is road everywhere, and our de-
partment is tho very first part ot the paper
all peace officers in Texas and the adjoining
6tates and territories read. Truly tho way of
the transgressor is a hard road to travel, es-
pecially whon he gets iuto The Nhws."

RAILROAD NEWS.
TUe Hate War,
Fort Worth, Tes., May 13.—Wire advices
received to-day contain tho announcement
that rates are to be restored by the south-
western lines and rigidly maintained after
June 1, but traffic men seem to regard tho
"rigid maintenance" as extremely prob-
lematical. In the moantime the knife i3 be-
ing wielded vigorously and is apparently as
keen as over. To-day the information comes
that a cut is on in the rice and moiassos rates
out of New Orleans,
The passenger raMs seom to be In no better
condition. The announcement is made to-
day that summor tourist rates have been
withdrawn from all points which can affect
the world's fair business or by which the rato
could be cut. The busing rate on tho world's
fair is 80 percent of the first-class rate. The
withdrawal of summer tourist rates ib taken
to mean that each road is at liberty to make
rates to the world's fair at its own will.
Judge Spoor's Onlnr.
Judge Emory Spoer of the United States
court at Macon, Ga., passed anordoron April
29 reinstating Engineer Dan Arden of the
Central railroad, who was removed on Feb.
20 for refusing to haul e car of the Savannah,
Americus aud Montgomery road when there
was a Btrike ou that road. In his decision tho
court says: There was a controversy pending
Detween tho engineers and tho receiver, relat-
ing to a proposed now contract or schedule
of labor and wages. Pending this contro-
versy Enginaor Arden was discharged for his
refusal to haul a car of tho Savannah, Ameri-
cus and Montgomery road. This ho did
in obedience to what he understood
to bo his duty to the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, as defined in
rule 12 of that order. The entire controversy
having been submitted to the court, it was
hold that rule 12, under which Engineer Ar-
den had acted, was violative of the law, and
the court is advised that tho Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers accepts this decision
as settling the controversy. * # * It ap-
pearing to the court that tho restoration to
duty of Engineer AnJen will bo in obedience
to the spirit of tho decision and will do no in-
justice to the service of the receiver, but will
tend to abato any friction which may have re-
sulted from the litigation, it is therefore or-
dered that Engineer Daniel D. Ardou, Jr., bo
forthwith restored to tho servico of tho re-
ceiver with the saino title to consideration as
an engineer which he enjoyed by virtue of
hia service at the timo of his said discharge.

The □ellmaua Klaetrlo Locomotive,
Railroad Gazette.
Reference to the electric railroad system
devised by Mr. J. J. Heilmann has already
been made in the Railroad Gazette on several
occasions. Mr. Heilmann, as may be remem-
bered, hus proposed as an intermediate solu-
tion of tho propelling power problem on rail-
roads, on* which will admit of utilizing elec-
tric traction without necessitating any change
whatever in the ordinary roadbed and track
system. This he designed to accomplish by
fit ing up each tjt of a train with eleotric
motors and by supplying the necessary cur-
rent from a special car at the head of the
train, this car also being self-pro-
pelling electrically and carrying a
steam boiler, engine and electric
generator outfit. Subsequently Mr.
Heilmann designed such a car as an electric
locomotive pure and simple, to develop about
500 horse power in motors fitted on its axles,
supplied with current from the generators
carried on the car itself and intended to haul
trains after the manner of an ordinary steam
locomotive.
Steam is furnished by a boiler of the Lentz
type, with corrugated furnace and combus-
tion chamber, coal bunkers and water tanks
being arranged at both sideef tho boiler. The
latter is placed at the rear of the locomotive,
the chimnoy also being at the rear, with the
furnace doors toward the front end.
The weight of the wholo locomotive, com-
pletely equipped, is placed at about 100 tons.
When oompieted tho engine is to be sub-
jected to prolonged and careful trials on the
French Btate railroads. It is being built at
Havre.

OPINIONS HANDED DOWN IN THE
SECOND SUPREME DISTRICT
B, D, Tarlton, Chief Justice; H, 0. Head
and I, W. Stephens, Associate Justioes,
Court Located at Fort Worth,
No. 158. Southwehtiiu \ Teleobapii and Tel-
ephonic Company vs. H. A. Uowakd. -Error from
Parker: Thii is an injunction procouding insti-
tuted by plaintiff utfniiist defendant in error,
Sevoral exceptions, denominated special excep-
tions, were addrossod in tho petition. They woro
really, however, a genurul demurrer. They wore
sustained by the court and judgment wus ren-
dered dissolving tho injunction und nsaosuing
damages to the extont of lu per cent of tho judg-
ment enjoined. The sol<! question necessary f'»r
ub to consider is whether plaintiffs' petition is
subject to general demurror. Tho petition al-
lowed that riefendaut Howard claims to have ob-
tained a judgment against the Erie tolograpli
und telephone company, a different company
from plaintiffs; that defendant caused execution
to bo levied on u portion of plaintiffs'
property in Parker county aud caused
it to be sold at a nominal price;
that defendant and his agents claimed to own tho
property so sold and continuously and seriously
threatened to take forcible possession aud to
prevent plaintiff from using and operating its
lino; that they intrudotixMnsolve* into plaintiff's
oflicos and domnnd tho revenues of the lino and
have torn down and removed plaintdf's sign-
board and throaton to aioze and sell othor sec-
tions of plaintiff's line to satisfy the remain,lor
of the judgment, etc. These allegations reason-
ably show that the "acts of trespass dono or
threatened to bo done to plaintiff's prooorty
would be ruinous or irreparable, or would im-
pair tho just enjoyment <>f the property in tho
future." Under such circumstances an injunc-
tion will bo granted (Btory's Equity Jurispru-
deuco, L-oction fJ2i), Tho court should have over-
ruled tho demurrer. Reversed and romundod.
Tarlton, 0. J.
No. 164. Julia E. Savoy vs. 0. b. Hbewton.—
From Eastland: Suit Ly appellant against ap-
polleo on purchase money not s and to for^clo^o
vendor's lien. Defendant pleaded failure of con-
sideration. The land involvuJ was lirst occupied
us vacant domain by Mrs. M. C. Covington, who
sought to acquire it under the law with reference
to homestead donation*. She hold it two years
and conveyed it by quit claim deed to William
Savoy, husband of appellant. Savoy novor occu-
pied the land and prior to his death conveyod it
ny warranty deed to appellant, his wifo. She,
through an agent (Mossj, convoyed to appellee.
The conveyance by her was a moro quit claim.
Defendant testified that Mo.ss falsely represented
to him that the period of throe years'
occuoancy was completed and that all
he had to do was to make proof of
occupancy and make patent. Moss, on tho othor
hand, testified that it was understood that Mrs.
Savoy was selling only such title as she had.
After defendant took po?-I'ssion ho applied for
patent, which was refused because the period of
three years was not complete. Having continued
a year longer ou the land he procured from Mrs.
Covington without consideration a quit claim
and as her assignee, patent was issued to him.
On trial below the jury found that tho notes woro
without consideration and returned a voniict for
appellee. Tho court in an instruction, which is
assigned as orror, charged that if Mrs. Covington
failed to occupy the land for threo yoars and
Savoy and wifo failodjto complete tho occupancy
the transfers from Covington to Savoy and from
Savoy to Julia E. Savoy would confer no title on
her, and that if "notwithstanding such want of
title" tho defendant purchased "without knowl-
edge of tho plaintiff's title," tho con-
sideration for tho note would fail.
In our opinion under tho facts
this instruction was erroneous and misleading.
By means of pluintiff's conveyance to him de-
fendant took possession 6f tho prooorty aud im-
provements, and the transfer, whether for that
purpose he availed himself of it or not, was suf-
ficient to onablo him to tack the possession ac-
quired to the occupancy previously held by Mrs.
Covington (Johnson vs. Towusend, 77 Tox., 639).
The quit claim procured without consideration
from Mrs. Covington subsequent to his occupancy

Drummers in rlie Cyclone,
Cisco, Eastland Co., May 13.—A drummer
on tho train tho othor day as it pulled into all
that is left of our fair littio western city said:
"Well, if there wero any drummers living in
Cisco I hope thoy wero unhurt. A drummer
doesn't need a cyclone to show him the rough
Bide of life." Ib is remarkable that the three
drummers and their families living in Cisco
lived through the ordeal withoutan injury and
with little property loss. J. H. Adams, repre-
senting W. D. Cleveland & Co., living on the
north side of town, was miraculously spared.
The corner of his kitchen is splintered, but
he and his family escaped without a scratch.
J. W. Carter, traveling for Thomas Goggautfc
Bro., and living near him, was unhurt. R. G.
Luse, another piano drummer who has his
home here, suffered very little loss. All
around these knights of the grip was strewn
the debris of other happy homes. Adams,
Carter and Luse worked faithfully to alleviate
the sufferings of their loss fortunate towns-
people. __
Contributions.
Jefferson, Marion Co.—Besides previous
donations, citizens of Jefferson purchased
$167 75 worth of lumber, including $24 do-
nated by Kelleyville, and forwarded to tho
Cisco sufferers.
THE SILVER QUESTION,
In Favor of Silver,
Fort Worth, Tex., May 13.—[To Thb
News.J— From the Louisville Courier-Journal
you copy something to the effect that if we must
have a legal tender silver dollar it should con-
tain silver enough to make it worth $1 and not
04 cents. That seems a fair proposition on its
face, but I insist that the silver dollar has not
depreciated, but that tho gold dollar has ap-
preciated. Now this is a bold statement, and
is worth just as much and no more than tho
statement that a silvor dollar is only worth 64
cents, uuless facts cau be stated that will con-
vince fair minds which is right. For about
4000 years a yellow metal called gold and a
white metal called silver have been a medium
of exchange at about a rato of 15ounces of
silver to 1 ounce of go d. "Medium of ex-
change" means simpiy the weight* or gauge
by which we arrive at a valuation of property
of every kind and description. Monometal-
lism means that gold alone shall be used as tho
woight or gauge, and bimetallism moans that
both gold and silver (at same ratio) shall be
used for that purpose. In 1817 England had
become rich and powerful and bocame the
creditor nation of the world, and at that time
began the light which has continued ovor
since in her endeavor to make all tho com-
mercial nations of the earth rocognizo gold as
the only metal that should be a legal tender
in the payment of debts and by which prop-
erty should bo valued. The nineteenth cen-
tury has been one of won ierful development
of commercial transaction^ and an enormous
increase in tho development and production
of what wo all recognize as property. The
people of this state can realize that, more
than any state in this union, for the youngest
of your citizens have seen changes that nearly
equal those ascribed to Aladtn's lamp. All
this wonderful increase needs more weights,
instead of less to weigh and gaugo
it by, unless you alter the scale
and make the weights more valuable.
Another thing that is also operating to
make gold taoro valuable: From 1850 to 1860
we produced an averago of about $82,000,000
annually; in 1892 it was only about $32,000,-
000, and, according to the estimate of the di-
rector of the mint about $8,000,000 of this
amount was used for the arts. It is tho sim-
plest proposition in the world—that the great-
er demand and losser the supply of an article
enhances its value. In 1873 wo demonetized
silvor by refusing it the same rights of free
coinage that we give to gold. Up to that time
from tho formation of our government silvor
had the same rights of coinage at tho ratio es-
tablished as gold. At that time the poison
was inserted in our finaucial system that
slowly but sure as deRth was bringing us to
the present state of our affairs. Had it not
beon for that act silver would have been worth
to-day $1 29 an ounce; and England
would not have been buying it at 88 cents to
send to India and use it at the India coinage
rato ($1.39 an ounce) and buying cotton with
that currency to place iu European markets
in competition with Texas cotton.
Now to bring this whole thing down to
brass tacks, who will monometal-
lism benefit? Who aro fighting for it?
It is tho creditor classes arid their sate-
litos und no other persons, unless there aro
some that may bo deceived. Who will mono-
metallism injure? The debtor classes,fcthe
classes that have their hard earnings in lands,
housos, cattlo or property of any kind. In
fact and in short every man whose accumula-
tions aro not in gold or its equivalent. Free
coinage of silver means the benefit of the
many, and monometallism means tho bonofit
of the few. Free coinage of silver will benefit
the class that dovelop this great country;
monometallism will benefit those who do not
develop. _____ tflurbbb.
International t'olu .Suggested.
El Paso, Tex., May 11.—Prof. Paul Lough-
arnmor, who is hero in charge of the Chicago
onyx company's property in the Guadalupe
mountains, has handod in a suggestion to the
secretary of the treasury on tho silver ques-
tion. His idea is that a new international
coin should bo established of a specified fine-
ness and containing a certain number of
grains. Each government would put its name
and coat of arms on one side arid the amount
iu grains on the other. These coins would
soon circulate all over tho world and would
release tho silver-producing countries of thoir
surplus. _

Bleeding Like a Stuck I'm—Held for Bob-
bery—Day Arrofited.
Fokt Worth, Tex., Mny 14.—George Har-
ris, a laborer in the Rock Itliind construction
gang, turned up [ft police hertd<iuartera atl :30
o'clock this morning bleeding like a stuck pig
from a wound in the right wrist, which
had severed an artery. He had been
down in the Aero with a
party of friends and while they wero eating
he wus injured. He says ho was struck by a
man, but declinos to give any information
about the man. It is the opinion of the phy-
sicians that the wound, which is serious, was
caused by a full. It whs certainly made by
some blunt instrument,
Sheriff Kelly of Fisher county arrived hero
to-night having in custody Hob Woodridge,
under thirty years sentence for murder. He
wns brought here for safo-keoping, the jail at
Koby being insufficient.
W. S. Day was arrested to-night and
lodged in jail on a charge of embezzlement,
his bond having been forfeited.
A white man was arrested on Capt.
Stewart's farm, Beveral miles from here, to-
night, charged with breaking open aud
robbing the trunk of Frauk Brioo.
The Work of 1111 Incoiullary.
Two attompts havo boon made recently to
burn Mayor Paddock's residence on Jennings
avenue. Tho first attempt was made abou£ a
week ago and the last one last night. The
mayor is having tho house remodeled and im-
proved and has not been occupying it for
some days. Last night somebody rakod the
shavings left by the carpenters into piles and
then saturated tho piles with turpentine.
These piles wero placed in tho most in-
Hammablo parts of the houso and then
ignited. Tho blaze attraetod attedtion and
was quickly extinguished after burning a
small hole in tho floor.
Last week identically tho saino tactics
were employed and the result the same. The
premises wero closely watched for several
days after the first attempt, but thore being
no recurrence the vigilanco of the watchors
was relaxod.
Tho attempt to destroy tho mayor's houso
has once moro stirred the people on the south
side, which has been the scone of a number of
incendiary fires during this year. Some three
months ago it will be remombered by readers
of Tub News that incendiary blazes werj
eo frequent in that quarter that the citizens
formed a vigilanco couunittco and patroled
the streets in addition to hiring a number of
men to look out. Sevoral members of the
police force wore also detailed to guard that
portion of tho city. All efforts to catch the
perpetrators woro useless. While tho south-
eido was guarded thero were no Cros. Now
that all of these measures of protection have
beon dispensed with tho incendiary bobs up
again.
This particular incondiary has a penchant
for destroying vacant houses. In only one in-
stance has his hand been seen iu tho burning
of an inhabited place. The methods are al-
ways the same. Sometimes he uses coal oil
to saturato tho shavings and sometimes tur-
pentine, but he always gets there. It is prob-
able the southside people will onco mora take
place as watchors.
ltuio Up the Denver,
Tho Donver general officers to-day said they
had received tolegrams from every point
along their line and a hard rain had been fall-
ing all the way from Amarillo to Vernon,
They also received telograms from their
agonts along the line, saying that this rain im-
proves the wheat prospect and assures three-
quarters of a crop. The yield, so the railroad
people say, will bo all the way from eight to
tifteen bushels an aero and this will make as
big a crop aa 1891 and that was tho largoss to
date.
SHERMAN SIFT1N&3,
Carlisle and Luttrell Burled.
Sherman, Tex., May 13.—No one having
mado a requisition for the bodies of either of
the executed mon up to 9 o'clock this morn-
ing it was deemed advisablo to have them
interred and thoy were accordingly taken to
the potters hold near the almshouse and
buried. Everything has resumed its usual
quiot about the prison.
Ono of Fogg's attorneys said to-day that the
prisoner's friends in Fort Worth had been
notified that it would be necessary for them
to come to Sherman if they desired to make
bond for him.
All tho extra guards who have been on duty
at tho Houston streot prison since the sensu-
tional reports became current to the effect
that an attempt would be made to release
Carlisle and Luttrell became prevalent, havo
been discharged and only the regular prison
guards and officials remain.
Kumnndcd Without Bond.
Word was received from Greer county to-
day that Win. Hughes, brother of Sheriff
Hughos of this city, had beon remanded to jail
at Mangum without bond by the justico of the
peace beforo whom the case was called for
preliminary examination. Sheriff Hughes
left for the scene of the trouble this afternoon.
A Sad Caso.
■T. W. Vaden left this afternoon for Terrell
with his brother-in-law, Charlos Fitch, about
22 years of age, who has been steadily grow-
ing moro and more mentnlly deranged, and
it has lately been considered bost both for his
own and the welfare of others to have him re-
strained. To-day certificates of physicians
and such other procedure required by law
where an investigation is not had in a public
trial were resorted to, aud he will be treated
as a private patient. Tho young man comes
of one of tho oldest and most respected fami-
lies in tho city and has himself a large ncHi-
ber of friends, all of whom deem the Bteps
taken to-day as absolutely neoossary.
Physicians' Meeting,
There was a meoting of physicians in tho
office of I)r. Taylor this afternoon at which
befitting resolutions upon tho death of Dr. S.
C. Nesbet were unanimously passed. The
meeting thou adjouraed in a body to tho
residence whero they participated iu the ser-
vices conducted by Kev. J. M. Hinkley, pre-
siding elder of tho M. E. church, south. Tho
pall bearers were Drs. Lankford, King,
Michoal, Freeman, Foute, Staples, Gunby
and 11. A. Simmons. The cortege was a very
long one, as the deceased wiw a very popular
citizen. The interment was in the city
cemetery.
