AnIonishIng Fact

A large proportion of the American
people are to-day dying from the eff
fects of dyspepsia or disordered liver.
The result of these diseases upon the
masses of intelligent and useful people
is most alarming, making life actually
a burden instead of pleasant exist
ence of enjoyment and usefulness as it
ought to be. There is no good reason
for this, if you will only throw aside
prejudice and skepticism, take the adj
vice of druggists and your friends, and
try one bottle of Green's August Flow
err. Your speedy relief is certain.
Millions of bottles of this medicine
have been gwen away to try its virtues
with satisfactory results in every case.
You can buy sample bottle for ten
cents to try. Three doses will relieve
the worse case, Positi rely sold by all
druggists on the Western Continent.

RESIDENCE BURNED. Mr.. John Ray
mond's residence burned down about
3 80 monday morning. Mr.. Barrow,
u fireman, who has a c. flee stand at the
market, gave the alarm by ringing the
bell vigorously and the fire department
was not slow IN turning ont. But the
fire was not discovered in time to en-
able the department to save the build
ing. The fire originated Ia the kitchen,
but how is not known. There had
been no fire In the kitchen stove after
. o'clock Sunday evening, and the
family cannot form any settled opinion
as to how the fire originated. Those
who first arrived on the premises saw a
tramp coming out of the yard and his
conduct attached some suspicion to
him. He was requested by two or three
to assist in carrying out things
from the burning building, but
he declined to lend hand,
but hung about the place some time
and then went over to Mr.. James II.
Raymond's, and, after asking for a
drink of water, sauntered about there
for half an hour. Mr.. Raymond saved
his piano and parlor furniture, few
books, some clothing and few dishes.
Not a bed was saved, and all the lIitch-
en- and most of the dining-room furni-
ture was burned. There was $4,000 in
surance in the Etna company on the
premises, and therefore Mr.. Rlymond's
loss fortunately will not be very heavy.
The building was built about two years
ago, and perhaps cost $4,000.

THERE seems to be q superabuud-
ance of robbers and tramps in the city
at the present time. On Sunday night
while on his way to the fire August
Ziller was stopped twice and searched
but fortunately he had nothing and
therefore lost nothing. Soon after
leaving his residence in the vicinity of
Bartram's store two white men ap-
preached him and ordered him to
throw up his hands. He complied
and they "went through" all his peck
cts and even felt down about his
shoes. The robbers left and he resum-
ed his journey for the fire, going in
direct line for Mr.. Raymond's, in the
western part of the city. Before he
had proceeded more than block or
two, he was halted again by two men
who followed the same line of policy
that the first two did. Mr.. Ziller says
that the latter couple We're not the
same men that stopped HIM the first
time, as they started north while he
jourleyed on in an opposite direction
The robbers assured Mr.. Z,ller that
they had no intention of hurting
him. August says he felt rather ner-
vous and uncomfortable when the rob-
beIs were searching him.

MAJOR Mccoy has returned from a
trip to the sugar district on the lower
Brszos. He reports that very large
crop has been made, and that, though
several new mills have been put up,
others are yet needed. The success of
the sugar planters this year promises
to have the effect of doubling the
acreage planted in sugar and to give
much encouragement to the extensive
raising of sugar cane in Texas, as also
the establishment of extensive mills and
retineries within the confines of our
own State. The sugar district in Texas
is sufficient in AREA to supply half the
South, ana perhaps the day is not dis
tant when Texas will export instead of
import sugar and molasses. Let us
hope that two or three years will &C
complish much in that direction, and
that in very short time the BraZOs
bottom, from Austin county to the
Gulf, will become a wilderness of
waving sugar cane, and that the course
of the river can be traced by the black
smoke ascending from the mills that
will dot that uncQualled valley.

JOHN WILLIS AND SAM JOHNSON IN
JAIL.-Sheriif Corwin, accompanied by
two Harris county officials, arrived
Sunday morning with the prisoners,
John Willis and Sam Johnson, and
placed them In Jail. One was arrested
at wagon shop in Houston while in
the act of greasing a wagon he had
bought there, and was quietly marched
off to Jail. The other and Henry Oar
lington were found In livery stable,
and both resisted arrest, but were over
powered. Darlington succeeded in
drawing pistol, and Officer Wood, of
Houston, then shot him just as he was
IN the act of shooting Officer FAINT.
Darlington fingered a few hours, and
before his death gave his full name,
but made no confessions that in
the least implicated himself or any
one else in the crimes with
which he aud his confederates are
charged. All three of the men were
raised in this county; and Willis is a
son of the man Willis who was hung
with two others in this city during the
war, on East Avenue. Two watches
stolen belSngiDg to Major Lsurane, a
siX-shooter belonging to Ben Thomp-
son, having his name engraved there
on, and a gold watch belonging to
Mr.. Cullen, were found in their posses
sion. Mr.. Cullen's watch, worth
about 500, was taken from him in
CiTcleville when the store of Mr..
Waymsn was robbed about three weeks
Ill., So
watches were taken from Major Lau-
rnne, as also about four hundred
collars, week or ten days before.
These facts make it conclusive that at
least three OF the nine men, who have
been depredsting in this section oil
the State for few weeks past, have
been brought to grief. There is no
doubt but that the same crowd have
figured in the robbery OF old man
Jordan. from whose safe they took
about $500; Wayman's store. in Circle
willie, Williamson county E. r. Rob
inson's hardware store at Round Rock.
and the Austin gaming house. It is
said that these three men and Others
had matured a plan for the robbery of
either s bank or n gaming house in
Houston, and it was hoped aud be-
ieved that the whsie crowd could be
arrested. But the officers deserve
credit for what they have accom-
phshed, and now that something is
known Of Others yet sc lsrge. officials
will NOT find the job Of cleaning up
the balance Of the crowd very diff
cult oae.

Oh the thirtieth six men entered the
Dickinson Bayou station house, be-

with drawn pistols compelled the
agent to deliver up TO them g box ad-
dressed TO Joe IL. Johnson. The box

To ascertain who sent it. The agent
stated that three men called at the Of

box to the above address. They stated
that it was of little value and did not
insure it. When asked by the agent
who sent it they replied Gain" paid
