A NEW TRAP FOR THE UNwARY.-The
business Of the mock auctioneer has as
sumed new phase. His old tricks having
with which to make victims of his custom
ers. The new device Is q very simple but q
very effective one. The auctioneer collects
number OF horses Of comparatively small
value, and advertises them as from the sta
blee OF some well known horse fancier re-
Gently dead or bankrupt. He 10 aware OF the
fact that the ordinary buyer OF horses Is usu-
OF horses than upon any other under the sun.
the ordinary buyer fancies or pretends that
there is nothing in the world ABOUT which he
Is SO well Informed, ana that when he sees
horse which he believes was approved and
owned by some expert, he shuts his eyes to
whatever evidence there may be OF the AMI
"horse points" shall be made manifest by his
doubts of the approved animals excellence.
He will look the brute over, examine his
teeth with q Knowing look, without in the
least knowing what their presence or cd.
sepce Of condition indicates, and then will
bid for the animal solely upon the strength
OF the auctioneers assurance that some Col.
and priced him. Whatever danger there
may be of detection has no terrors for the
cunning auctioneer, who knows very we'll
that his customers vanity Is his protection.
The broken-d down hacks that he sells for
noble steeds come not back To plague him,
for their buyers have pretended 10 buy upon
their own pretended judgments, and they
are not likely TO make the humiliating con-
fession that they have been grossly deceived.
OF course, the practice is simply one mode
Of obtaining money under false pretences,
force the law against IL as a m after of self
protection. II our police captains possessed
the zeal and capacity which their positions
demand they would not require the newspa-
pers to call their attention to this class OF
swindlers before interfering, as one OF them
did In east 22d street yesterdRy.-fN Y. Post.

MURDER IN DENTON.

a sheriff Killed by n Prisoner.
Special 10 the Dallas Herald.
DENTON, October 20, No steps have
been taken as yet to arrest the guards
that were with the deputy sheriff at
the killing. The live paper of Denton,
the Review, gives the points in the
murder that occurred Tuesday last,
as follows:
"a Deputy Sheriff Of Montague
county staid over night in Denton
Monday night. He had In his custody
prisoner 10y the name of Wilson,
whom no had arrested in Mckinney,
early Monday morning. He, with his
two guards aud prisoner started early
Tuesday morning, saying they would
20 out 10 the first stock water nd
cook breakfast. Since then we learn
that they stopped atClear Creek, near
| Boliver. While the guards were pre-
pairing breakfast, the officer removed
| the handouts aud took the prisoner to
| the creek to lot him wash On returning
to camp, the prisoner snatched n pistol
from the belt Of one of the
guards and shot the sheriff five times
killing him instantly. The guards
did nothing to prevent the murder
They testified before the court Of in
quest that after Wilson had killed the
sheriff he turned on the other guard
and disarmed him. He then took the
sheriil's horse aud offered one of them
twenty dollars for u saddle, which was
declined. They, however, sold him
pistol for ten dollars, and when he
started eft barebacked, they calsed him
bnck and gave him II blanket to ride
upon. 10 IL the general opinion that
the guards were accessory TO the MUIR
der In fact It II the only reasonable
conclusion that can be arrived at
The Northwest Is getting little
desperate; three men were murdered
In Clay county last week Bill Bean
and one Music, who quarreled about a
pipe, and killed each other last Fri.

aHERALD reporter was escorted to The
topmost part OF tue elevator, aud from
an elevation of one hundred and
twenty feet In the air, was permitted
70 look down at the busy scenes pre-.
sehted ON all sides below. The els.
VaIor aud compress, under manage.
meht OF the company OF which Cap.
tam Clark is president, has been
described more than once Ia 1'Hn
HERALD, and we shall not now repeal
that description. Both the elevator
ana compress are at once the results OF
Dallas growth and feeders to il. This
Is The only elevator In the State o.
Texas, and when one considers tia
magnitude of it's construction, the
minute care bestowed upon the ar.
rangement Of all the details on ia
oui'oing, feeling Of arbitration In.
sehsioly arises for the master spirit az
inc enterprise. TWAS said that thja
elevator was too large for Dallas; that
such II structure might answer elaht
or Ten Years from now, hut at present
IL was out of all proportion to the de.
mand. We think Captain CLARK
ouilded wiser than the critics knew
which viii be conceded when
IN the near future Dallas becomes
the Hour centre of the Southwest
Whlie not the initial movement, this
elevator is the first long step forward
To that time when Dallas shall sun.
ply all the Southwest with bread.
Dallas mills are even now famed fr
beyond the confines OF Texas. The
wheat of North Texas is now sought
alter even by such grain States as
Missouri aud when Dallas shall make
INTO Dallas flour all the wheat that
comes to Dallas, then will tho fur
reaching Judgment of the projectors Of
the elevator be seen and admitted.
The elevator and compress are monu-
ments to the growth OF the Queen City..
and the tall building by the side Of the
Pacific railroad track will tell
tale OF pluck, enterprise aud conf
dence to the thousands of Dallas' visi-
tors next week, that no "extension,
will-o' the-wisp may gainsay aud we
venture the assertion that no one thing
IN our city will 80 impress our visitors
with the permanency of our growth
and prosperity as the elevator aud
compress conceived and carried 10

energy of w. j. Clark.
