On the north side the news came thai
Osman Pasha was heading some 20 .OO(
troops, and had already driven in III,
Russian advanced lines. He had cross.
ed the Vid. and was aiming at Etropol
Thither dashed several Of the staff
Meanwhile the Russians, southerly and
easterly, closed in upon the Turkish
intrenchments, capturing some easily.
but paying terrible price for Others.
The Moslems waited until the foe was
within 400 yards, and then swept the
lines with a murderous fire. The Mus
covitcs never hesitated nor faltered. but
carried one position after another nv
storm. Enthusiasm grew into fury, and
whole columns rushed through musket-
~ fire as If 1t carried no death. But
the Turks exhibited despairing BRAY
cry. Again and again they formed in
line and met the advancing foe at the
bayonet point. Towards afternoon the
Turkish fire began to fail, and it was
evident that their ammunition was ex-
hausted. But their courage had not
faIied. In the trenches or in the open
they checked more than once the i'm
petuous Russian charge, and had ii not
been for the Muscovite guns the
battle would have proved too dear
for the object Of the prize. Wherever
the Turks formed to resist or make n
stand. there was concentrated the fire II
the Russian guns. Whole battalions
We're well nigh swept away.
But al Etropol, where Ghaz Osman
commanded IN person, the fight was de-
moniacal. They bore down on the Rus
sian positions with ;ierceness and
steadiness that nothing could Withstand
Checred on by the words, .Allah, AL
lah'' ringing in the air, they tore
through shrapnel aud musket shot until
the ground was darkened with their
dead. They lcaped into the intrench-
mcnts, and there, hand to hand, strug
gled in death struggle with their hated
foes. They swarmed the redoubts, and
sprung on the Russian gunners like
tigers. Their reserves came fearlessly
forward and had to pass through a con-
verging FIRE that made gaps in the ranks
at every stride they marked. Nothing
daunted they rushed to the aid Of their
brethren In the front. But the Russians
held on brayely, and fought with
steadiness and undaunted courage that
outlasted the iron-like bravery of the
Osmanitcs. Gradually the Roumanians
bore down upon the Turkish flank, and
from the west the Russian troops swept
In upon the lines. Closer and closer

the allied troops hcmmed in their foes,
and thinner and thinner grew
the Turkish ranks. AT length
Osman, who fought as only
a Turk can fight, grew weary of the
slaughter and ordered retreat. II was
TOO late. The enemy had surrounded
hiri, and Pleyna was already In the
hands of the Russians. With 4 last At
tempt he strove 10 pierce his narrowing
bonds. He fell, and with him the Mos
lem bravery fell, too. The confusion
became terrible. Whole divisions flung
down their arms. The artillery Bate
ries ceased their fire, the infantry dashed
their muskets against the gun-carriage
wheels. At length flag Of truce was
visible. 1t was near Osman Pasha.
Some 80 Cossacks rode forward, and
were followed BY Gen. Granetzky and
other officers. Supported by two off,
GERS, Osman Pasha, handing his sword
to the Russian General, said: ITO the
Emperor, through you, surrender my
sword and my army" Thus, after six
hours heroic fighting on both sides,
Pleyna fell, and itsgallant defender and
his army became the prisoners Of the
allied Russo-Roumanian troops.--Lon-

The weekly democratic statesman. [volume] (Austin, Tex.) 1871-1883, 1878-11-14

A well-known writer has concluded
a somewhat curious investigation. Be-
ing struck with the vast number of
novels issued from the English press
and sent to the circulating Libraries, he
has endcavored, as we'll as he possibly
could, to trace the authors. He has
discovered that they are for the most
part young ladies, good many of
them with means. For it is not for
moment TO be supposed that the writ
ing of such works is In all cases remu-
nerative. 1t is computed that the num-
Der of lady novelis.s is past finding
out, but that they make up the large
majority of nove-wIittrs is without
doubt. One curious thing about this
investigation is the fact that in some
cases the female authors belong to the
poorer orders. There is species of
religious novel ii a! has lately obtained
large circulation, and it is In this
sphere that the latter are found. But
the success of the works depends not
upon their intrinsic merits, but upon
the benevoleuce of rich gentlemen who
guarantee to Ia7 tie publisher for so
many hundred copies. Some trashy
works of this class are s5nt out to the
extent of ten thousand In this particu-
lar way gratuitously, in Sunday schools
and similar institutions.

UP to last evening there was no clue
to the three men who robbed an Ave
nue. gaming house Monday night, and
it is altogether probable that they will
escape arrest, and therefore feel en-
coursged TO contirue the business.
They were very cool and deliberate
about the robbery. When they FIRST.
entered the room they stood by the
stove minute and then walked up to
!, table and instantly each drew two
pis tolls and leveled them at the pre-
prictor and two others in the room,
when one said, 1--WE want no fuss. -
They were informed that they could
help themselves, and they coolly did
so, taking all the money on the t1ble
and in the safe, about $400, and
three watches and pistol. One
OF the robbers, after finding only the
amount of money stated, remarked
that they had been deceived. TneJ
then proceeded to tie the hands of the
three men with pieces of UNFINISHED
ropes which they drew from their peck
cts, then quietly walked down stairs,
locked the door behind them as they
passed out, and walked rapidly away.
In short time Officer SUblett, who had
heard firing down in the lower part Of
the city, and was on the look for the
parties who did il, suddenly rode up
on three men on horseback near POST
master Kinney's residence, when they
drew their pistols and made him deliver
up his six-shooter. They were evil
IDENTIFY the identical robbers, and i'm
agined, perhaps. that they were being
pursued by an officer.
The weekly democratic statesman. [volume] (Austin, Tex.) 1871-1883, 1878-11-14

THE names of the four parties ar
rested Thursday night by Marshal
Creary and Policemen CheneNlle and
Patterson are Jim Lyle, VIM. Martin,
Dick Riddle and ]. +. Hale. They
are charged with passing counterfeit
half dollars on several persons in this
city, and spurious coin was found Ia
their possession. One of the party
is colored boy who acted in The ca
pacity of cook. Seven counterfeit
half dollars were taken from him. The
men say they came from Gsayson
county, and that they are tpders.
They have eight or ten horseA with
them and the officials think they
bought the horses with counterfeit
money, and a government detective
asserts that the men, who have been
travelling over the country for
some time,i have been looked upon
with suspicion. They were examined
before Commissioner Warren. Bail,
$4,000 each.

Arc Fat People IEeaIlnTa

Why are fat people always COM
plaining9 asks some one who entertains
the popular though erroneous notion
that health is synonymous with fat.
Fat people complain because they are
diseased. Obesity is au abnormal con-
dition of the system, in which the
saccharine and oleaginous elements of
the food are Gssimilated to the partial
exclusion of the muscle-forming and
producing elements. In proof
of this, it is only necessary to assert
the we'll known fact that excessively
fat people are never strong, and seldom
distinguished for mental powers or
activity. Besides, they are the easy
prey of acute and epidemic diseases,
and they are the frequent victims of
govt. heart disease, and apoplexy.
Allan's Anti-Fat is the only known
remedy for this disease. 1t contains
no acid, is absolutely harmless, and is
warranted to remedy the most cor =.
firmed case of obesity or corpulency.
