the State Leg stature in -SJ3. He is
said to entertain iailel views, but is

Mr.. John, the go>d editor of the
CHRISTIAN Adcoea,e, publicly announced
in meeting IN Galveston that he
didn't ''care chaw of tobacco" for
Governor Hubbard; and Mr. Spsight
said The dignity OF the board of health
would be lowered in q personal cor
hict with the Governor. And all this
and much more fuss was being kicked
up because the Governor first proposed

quarantine, and then went back on his
understanding with these people of
the Island City.

Col. Abbott, OF New Orleans, wrote
to the Democrat from Holly Springs
that he discovered written i'll pencil on
the walls of Holly Springs hospital
"Within this room, October 3, 1873,
Sister Corintha sank into the sleep of

| Holy Sisters TO enter THIS realm of
| death, she vas the last save one to
leave. The writer of this humble no
tice saw her in health, gentle and
strong, as she moved with noiseless
step and serene smiles through the
| crowded wards. He saw her when the
yellow lumed angel threw his golden
shadows over the last sad scene, and
eyes unused to weeping gave the trib-
ute of tears to the brave and beaut;-
full Spirit of Mercy.

Deputy United STATED Marshal Ar
dersop, who was killed in Dakota Tel
| ritory while arresting William Collins,
was a resident of Dallas, and native
of Kentucky. He left Dallas on the
twenty-ninth of October in pursuit OF
| Collins, who was overtaIen at Penn
bina, IN the Black Hills country, where
| both the pursuer and the pursued met
death. The Commercial gives a history
of affairs leading to the tragedy: 'Tn
June last Collins, who was implicated
IN the Bass train robberies, was arrest
ed by the United States authorities and
admitted to bail in the sum of $14, 900,
for his appearance before the United
States court at Austin, at the July
term. He forfeited his recoguizance,
leaving TeXas, it is thought, for the
territories. United States and county
authorities and detectives employed by
| his bondsmen kept strict lookout for
him, but confederates kept him posted
and he managed TO e,u3e them. Will
| liam Collins was thirty-3iX years old
and has vile and one child with his
father, Abner Collins, who has Just
moved from Dallas to Erath county in
consequence of bic social trnnhlns
| William makes the third of the Collins
boys killed white resisting arrest for
highway robbery. joel was killed at
Buffalo Station, Kansas, by Sheriff
Beardsley, OF Ellis county, Kansas, and
a squad of soldiers, on the twenty
sixth of September, 1877, while
making his way back to this State
with $50, 600 in gold of the $50, 900
captured in the great Union Pacific
robbery at Big Springs, Nebraska. The
next to meet an Ignobie death was Hen
ry, who was also an alleged member of
tue Bass gang, and who was wounded
in one of his legs about two months
ago, in Grayson county. William Col
Inns was undoubtedly one of the princi-
pals of the Bass gang, al of whom died
with their boots on except Frank jack
son, who Is still at large. The rewards
standing for Collins aggregate $500
! $500 each by the Houston and Texas
Central and Texas and Pacific RliI-
roads, $500 by the Express company and
$1,000 by the State. This reward will
no doubt be paid 10 the widow of
Captain Anderson. VIM. H. Anderson,
The dead marshal, was sober, steady,
brave officer, aud his untimely death
has cast a gloom over Dallas. He
leaves most estimabie wife and two
children, boy ten years old and
grown daughter"
