-MessrS. GreSh ana Hyde proSpected
for coal back of w. G. Geary,s resi-
dence, last week. They found two
veins, the upper vein about two and
one-half feet thick, and the coal of
good quality, but as no roof could be
made solid enough to admit of its being
worked, another vein was found, also
an excellent quality of coal, about
eighteen inches thick. AS soon as the
weather will admit another vein will
be opened, when it is thought coal will
be found in paying quantities. The
opening of paying coal field in this
immediate vicinity would be source
of much wealth to Ridgway, and that
the finding of such field is within the
range of possibilities we think will
not admit of doubt. These hills are
not worth much for agricultural pur-
poses, but may they not abound in that
which is of far more worth ?

Another Negro Killed.

About nine days ago Alex
Thomas, colored, a duly licens-
ed attorney at law and resident
of Burton, gave a party or fes-
tival at his house. Tickets were
issued and this it seems caused
the trouble that resulted in
the death of a negro named
Wallis Carr. A quarrel arose
about the tickets in which Carr,
Thomas ard another negro,
whose name is unknown, were
engaged. Carr drew a knife on
Thomas who struck him with a
rock inlicting injuries from
which Carr died on Thursday
uiorninc the 9th inst.

Forepaugh's Show

mere loT the past
Il the arrival Q!
circus and menagef
day. The comlfr.
stitution had been
tised, both by the newspap
and show" bills; the conse-
quence was that people were
here froa ali parts of the coun-
ty as well as adjoining counties.
There is. no doubt that this is
the biggest thing of the
kind that ever came to Texas,
it travels on its own cars hav-
ing about forty in all as well as
two locomotives. At an early
hour in the morning the sover-
eigns of the land, both white
and black, commenced arriving
in force. The weather was
cloudy and threatening rain
with light mist about I o'clock
it remained cloudy dlring the
day and this doubtless detuIred
many from coming to town.
The show pitched its tents on
the common in the rear of the
public school buildings. About
ten o'clock the procession con-
sisting of the city marshal
mounted on an elegantly COM
parisoned mustang pony, two
gentlemen in a spring wagon,
the band wagon, number of
camels six or seven elephants
the cages containing the ami
mails, the one with the lions be-
ing open, beautiful and very
expensive chariot ETC., moved
through the principal streets
much to to the delight of
innumerable citizens of African
descent. About two o'clock
the doors of the immense tents
were thrown open-to ticket
holders. A BANNER reporter
visited the show about three
o'clock, he found all the ami
mails on exhibition that the show
bills called for, including the
hippopotamus, the rhinocerous,
the kangaroo, the zebra and also
the monkeys. The show prop
er or circus was like all other
circuses, which are the same
the world over. The riding,
tumbling and the clown accom-
panied by the ring master was
on hand. The performance
passed off to the entire satisfac-
ton of an immense crowd, for
Brennan. When the perform
ance was in progress there was
about two thousank persons
present all the seats being COM
fortably filed, though there was
room for more. So far as we
heard everybody was well pleas
ed. The attaches arepolite and
attentive. There was no dis
turbance ofany kind. At night |
a large crowd was in attendance.
To-day the citizens of Giddings
and Lee county will be enter
tanned.

Richmond: "Her acting was

ceived that she was called before
the footlights at the conclusion
of the second act, amid raptur-
Gus applause. A rare treat is

SMALL FIRE. On Saturday
night, shortly after ten o'clock a
fire broke out in a servants
house on the premises of Mr..
il. Moore, in the southwes-
tern part of town. 1t was rain
ing hard at the time and as the
servant who occupied the room
was in the dwelling the fire was
not discovered until it had made
considerable Roadway. The
Hook and Ladder and Mechan-
les Egine..companies men were
promptly on hand and rendered
valuable assistance in saving
the dwelling. During the hight
of the excitement some one re-
moved a gold watch worth sIoo
from the mantle in the dwelling.
Up to this time the watch has
not been heard of. The burn
ed house was worth SIS or 500;
the colored servant who
occupied, it lost all her effects
and ready cash, worth perhaps
another 500. There was no
insurance.

THE WIFE MURDER.
False Report

Mr.. C. P, Killougft called at
| the BANNER Office TO correct the
statement in yesterdays issue in
regard to the wife murder. The
statement as to finding the body
of the woman is wrong. Mr.,
killough's statement is as fol-
lows: The man who was a
| tenant on his place is named
:; Toe Heemann, he is about IS
years old and his wife about Is
They have been married 4 years
but did not live happily to-
gether. He had treated her
shamefully beating her unmer-
cifully at times. She had left
him on one or two occasions
he remarked that she would
never leave him again. His
child about Is months old
was left at the house of a
German named Schultze who.
is the stepfather of Heeman's
wife. The last that was seen of
the woman was on Friday the
Ist inst. On the evening of that
day Mr.. Killough heard gun
fired in the vicinity of Heeman's
house, on Saturday, the I'd inst,
the house was closed all day
and the door guarded by saw
age dog which the man had
chained near by. On Saturday
night the man loaded his effects
into his wagon and hitching up
his team left for parts unknown,
going it is supposed in the direc-
ton of Burleson county. The
man had plenty on the place to
have paid all his debts and
leave handsome surplus; of
his crop there is 6 or 7 bales of
cotton in the field. He was
wholly unacquainted with the
country, but postponed his de-
parture until after the moon had
set. 1t is supposed that some
of his kinsmen or neighbors
furnished him with directions
for getting out of the county
and accompanied him a mile or
two to the big road. Mr.. Kill
Tough examined the vacant
premises finding a mattress in
a bunk in the back room with
large spot of blood on it and
also plank up in the floor.
The theory is that the
body was hid under the floor
Saturday and hauled away in
the wagon at night The mys-
FERROUS manner in which the man
left, together with the false and
circumstantial report furnished
the BANNER leads to the con-
clusion that the woman was
certainly murdered. Mr.. Kill
Tough reported the case to the
county officials on Sunday last,
but no action has been taken
in the matter.
