This is to certify that Mr.. - has

The town of Griffin, Texas, is
supported by buffalo hunters, and
is their favorite rendezvous in this
section. The number of hunters
on the ranges this season is estima-
ted at 1900. One can see at Griffin
a plat Of ground of about four
acres covered with buffalo hides
spread out to dry, besides a large
quantity piled up for shipment.
These hides are worth in this place
from 81 to $1.6O each. The gene
rally accepted idea of the exciting
chase in buffalo kuntlng is not the
plan pursued by the men who
make it regular business. They
use the needlegun with telescope,
buy the powder by the keg, the
lead in bulk, and the shells, and
make their own cartridges. The
guns in a party of hunters are used
by only one or two men, who say
they usually kill drove of thirty
or forty buffaloes on one or two
acres Of ground. AS soon as one
is killed the whole herd, smelling
the blood, collect around the dead
body, snufing and paving up the
ground, and uttering a singular
noise, The hunter continues To
shoot them down as long as he can
remaiH concealed, or until the last
animal "bites the dust" The buf.
falo pays no attention to the report
Of the gun, and fees only at sigh
or scent of his enemy. The Others
then occupy themselves in "peel.
ing" Some Of these have become
so skillful they offer to bet they car
skin five or six-year-old bull il
five minutes. The meat is also
saved and sent to market, and com
mands good price.

early part Of this week Of being i'm
plicated in the murder of young
Brazil, and on account of the i'm
possibility of obtaining jurors who
could qualify, the cases have been
removed here for trial under change
of venue. Mr.. Mckay states
that the utmost interest is taken
in the result Of the charges against
these men, who have an extensive
relationship and many influential
friends. Hundreds of persons at.
tended their trial at Cuero, and on
the day the case was argued the
courtroom was thrOnged with la
dies. The result of the trial of Au-
gustine and Hester was surprise
to many, but they seem to have
proved an alibi, and worked up
other points through their counsel,
which induced the Jury to render a
verdict of "not guilty" Previous
to their recent removal to Ouero,
the five prisoners were confined ia
the Austin Jail, where they had lain
for thirteen months.
Mr.. Mckay says the Mexicans in
the Corpus Christi country are be-
coming very offensive to Americans.
They seem to have caught up the
prevailing personal spirit of hatred
for the Gringos, and insult anC
bully over Americans whenever anC
and wherever they find opportunity
Throughout all the lower Nuece
country the feeling is decided,
Mexican, and in consequence o
this business has become great,
depressed. The people are begin
ming to feel unsettled, and mer
chants in small villages are afrait
to replenish their stocks. None o
the people seem to care to max
investments. The Americans dreaC
their Mexican enemies, and ar
forced to keep on a keen watch t
protect themselves from falling pre-
to their treachery.
Upon inquiring Of Mr.. McKa
as to how the rangers were gettinj
along on the short appropriation
allotted to their support, our repor
ter learned that the company's re
sources had al been exhausted, aut
that an appeal to the San Antoni
Railroad Company had been made
The stock-men's donation, what o
it had been paid up to keep tn
boys in the field, had been USED
and unless Colonel Andrews, on be
half of our railroad company
stood up to the previous promise t
let the rangers have what none
they needed in an emergency, VIII
, there was no hope. But there

Our reporter yesterday took ad-
vantage of an opportunity for a
brief interview with one of Captain
HALLS rangers, Mr.. A. S. Mckay.
" Mack" is an intelligent man, and
has done much hard service in his
line of duty throughout our West
ern country. He frequently writes
up his adventures and furnishes
his letters to the press, and there
is no journal that would not be
glad to publish his interesting
writings. He arrived in this city
on Thursday, accompanying his
captain and others Of the company,
who brought with them the Brazil
murderers. Their prisoners were
five in number, to-wit; Dave Au.

{" "Tiny Tim"

IOOIe WAS dCIlug III AOuuOU III
"The Christmas Carol" playing
Bob Cratchitt. A little delicate
girl, one Of the children of the
dresser at the theater, whose pale
face and interesting manner fitted
her we'll for the part, played Tiny
Tim. The sickly little child was a
favorite in the theater, and especi-
ally so with Mr.. Toole. During the
performance of the piece, as the
reader may remember, the artists
sat down regularly to a supper of
roasted goose aud plum pudding,
which was in the present instance,
genuine material. Toole wash the
habit of chopping the viands up
and giving them to the children
performing, and they, when they
had eaten the first helping, returned,
like Oliver, for more. Tiny Tim,
however, like Benjamin, appeared
to eat seven times as much as her
brethren. She was the first to re-
turn her plate for more, and always
made away with more than an ordi-
nary adult could eat of goose, sup.
plementing this colossal repast with
plum pudding, enough for half a
dozen. Toole gradually felt an
aversion growing in him for the
child. Her pallor and sickness
seemed to him suspiciously allied
indigestion, the first fruits of glut.
tony. he struggled against this
feeling for time, but it mastered
him, and he could not think kindly
of the little one. One day, in fit
of disgust, he sawed off a piece of
meat and bones from the savory
bird and flung it into her plate
with a piece OF plum pudding,
which left little for the others, hop
ing that for once the child would
be satisfied. But she wasn't. With
punctuality worthy of a landlord
she returned for more, Toole wa;
shocked.
"My DEAR" said he, "you will
make yourself sick if you eat SC
much. | gave you enough for three
or four big boys. Yeu could not
have eaten it in this time. Where
are the bones?" he added, looking
at the empty plate.
The poor child hung her head.
Toole spoke again rather sharply
"Please, sir" sobbed Tiny Tim
"my little sister ate it."
And following the direction oi
her eyes toward the wings, there
he saw a hungry little horde of rag
amufius pitching into the Christ
mas cheer with an energy that in
dicated how much they needed it,
A light was let in upon him. Little
Tiny had been filling the stomaohs
of her hungry little brothers and
sisters and not her own. She never
took another grudged morsel from
the table. Toole told the story to
Dickens, who listened attentively,
and, at its conclusion, with burst
of warm enthusiasm, cried: "Give
her the whole goose and half the
plum pudding next time;" and il
the actor did not follow the warm
hearted novelist's instructions to
the letter he acted upon the spirit
of them, and Tiny'S family never
lacked square meal during the run
Of the piece.
