Austin, Aug. 10.—The farmers 0
Denton county were about orgfjdizingi
to fight the bagging trust, and wrote’
to Attorcny-Gencral Hogg as to the
legality of the movement. The ans-
werxxm tains theifeUoWfeg:
To J. T. Bottoroff, Esq., County At-
torney, Denton, Tex.:
Dear Sir—From the statements con-
tained in the inclosure of your letter
of the 27th ujt the combination of
farmers is intended to prevent compe-
tition in the purchase of merchandise
and is therefore a vioalation of sub-
division's, section 1, as well as other
portions of the “trust bill.” Your
duty is to enforce nil provisions of this
law, without respect to class, and as
the committee asks you the plain
question on a statement of facts show-
ing that the intended organization
has for its object the violation «f the
st&tntc defining and prohibiting the
the like, von should M ara them of the
consequences of the combination
should it he perfected. Verv truly,
J. 8. HooD.
A sheriff from a southern county
brought a female patient to the asy-
lum here, employing his wife and
daughter as guards. He charged the
state $2.50. Dr. Dorsctt, superintend-
ent, paid him $150. or had it don®.
The other day the sheriff sent up a hill
for more money, accompanied hv an
affidavit that Dorsett had only paid
him $100.

Snlphtir Springs, Aug. 9.—Last
sight the city marshal, J. Ji Houston,
went ]gfr> the jBaerwald restaurant, of
which l|rs. Leila Davis, is proprietor,
an4 «#ting made some remark
Mw. Davis became offended,
up a cup of hot coffee^and
taiM< |»to‘th?Yaci%f thenuthftair
The marshal grabbed her and a rough
and tumble fight ensued. Parties in-
terfered and all was thought to be
quiet, hut in the course of an hour
the marshal stepped into the saloon
which.adjoins the restaurant, when he
was fired upon from the door of the
partition that separates the saloon
lVom the restaurant by Mrs. Davis.
The marshal advanced anti disarmed
lor. Pitchers, cops and saucers played
» prominent part before the irate
madam was reconciled. The shot
missed the mark and no damage was
done other than a few scratches and
bruises and the absence of hair.

Atlanta, Aug. 10.—Pat Calhoun,
general counsel for the West Point
terminal road, and J. I). Williamson,
president of the Chattanooga, Koine
and Carrollton road, fought a duel at
Hokes Bluff on the Coosa river this
e\ euing in which Calhoun M ounded
Williamson' in the right arm. *
This is the result of the controversy
before the committee of the house of
representatives, when Calhoun charged
that AA illiamson's first purpose iu the
organization of his road M as to sell
out to the Central of Georgia. This
AYilliamson denounced as false. Yes-
terday Calhoun sent a demand for
retraction. AA'illiamson sent a reply
rclusing further communication, the
result being an agreement to go out-
side the state for further negotiations,
it being felony to scud a challenge in
Georgia. Both men left last night,
presumably for the famous duelling
grounds at Sandbar Ferry. The affair
has created a great sensation. Patrick
Calhoun is a grandson of John C. Cal-
houn. and probably the most promi-
nent railroad lawyer in th the south.
AA'illiamson is well known throughout
the east as a railroad builder.

Lansing, Mich., Aug. 8.—In 1884
George Bnrnhard, a well known
and well-to-do citizen of Branch
county, was accused of criminal
assault and convicted, and owing
to popular clamor was sentenced
to prison for lire. His property
was confiscated." His who died
and .Lis family has been scattered
oyer tho country. Barnhart has
suffered his imprisonment uncom-
plainingly, and recently a move-
ment was set on foot looking to his
pardon. The more thoroughly the
matter was investigated tho more
apparent it became that the man
was unjustly convicted. Nearly
everybody in tho county signed a
petition for his release. The boarc
ol pardons made an exhaustive re-
seajch and they are convince/
that ho is being unrighteously pun
ishod. Yesterday Governor Luce
extended an unconditional pardon
lo Barnhart, who goes out into the
cold word again without money
family or property.

1,ion was made a few days since 01
a little episode that took place at
the New Beckham hotel, in which
a young man and a Greenville lady
were the principals. Information
was received here yesterday to the
effect that the young lady in ques-
tion followed him to liis homo in
Gainsville, Ga., arriving there a
’few hours after him. She kept
quiet all day and at night she em-
ployed a hotel porter to go with her
in search of him. They located
the gentleman In question early in
the search at the house of one of
his young lady friends.
The porter went in and told him
that a triend of his was in waiting
to see him at the gate, Mnd wholly
un*uspiciou«, he went with prompt-
ness to the gate, when the young
woman he is said to have trifled
with confronted him. He at once
told hev that he was at her service,
ard after some little preliminaries,
they were married tho next day.
Bo the plucky little woman comes
off eonqueror and the recreant
over is brought to justice. Thus
