Sheriff Billy Knox returned yesterday
from Los Aroyas with a Mixican, Vice
toriana Samudio, who is 'charged with
assault with intert to kill. This man,
it appears, has been q king in his way
in his section, where he is generally
feared. Tile hail storm Sunday, after
skipping this immediate vicinity, burst
upon the country to the southeast dos
ing much damage to crops. Corn was
very badly cut down by the stones----
Reports from all sections of this county,
Bexar, indicate that the yield of wheat
will equal, if not exceed, that of any
county in the west yet heard from.
Several farmers have no doubt but that
they will produce forty bushels of wheat
to every acre, The average will be
very high. Oats, barley and rye all
promise a great yield. Corn is now
generally in full ear, and is undoubtedly
made, in all portions of the west, The
average in this and neighboring coun-
ties will not fall short Of forty bushels
to the acre. Potatoes, melons and
vegetables in general are corresponds
lngly prosperous.
