nesday eeering about ! o'clock
as marshal Doran was passing
Kavanaugh's warehouse near

A MYSTERY UNsoLvED.-Some
time ago the BANNER gave the
particulars of the disappear
ance of a woman from Killough's
farm on New Years creek. 1t
will be remembered her hus-
band packed up and moved off
his effects about the same time.
We now learn from a gentle
man living in the neighborhood
that the man has been heard of
in one of the counties above
McLennan. His wife was not
with him, neither has she been
heard of. The general impress
sion in the neighborhod is, that
the,,man carried his wife's dead
body off in the wagon with
him and disposed of it athis
leisure. Another thing is no le-
gal steps have ever been taken
to investigate the matter. The
BANNER is informed that the
circumstance was reported to
the county officials here at the
time, but as there was TO
money in it." it was allowed to
drop. Who is to blame? The
grand jury meets next month
and should give this affair a
thorough investigation.

"MoRE HooKING".- An Aus

on Monday and purchasing a

Christmas ''trix" for the young
folks at home and also a fine
dress pattern for his wife. Hav-
ing finished his purchases for
home use, he tied the satchel
on his saddle, and, in pursuance
of a time honored practice,
stepped into a woodward to
wood up for his journey home.
He wet his whistle and going
out to mount his mustang found
that some wide-awake and devil
fish cuss had stolen the satchel
from the saddle. The police
force of the city is small and as
they cannot be ubiquitous citi-
zens should keep a close look
