THE soLDKsT YET.
Maskers pay their Respects to
an Old Citizel, and Mt tho
Muzzls OF Pistols
Rob Hin.

On Sunday evening about s
O'clock Mr.. S. S. Hosea had
! visitors. He resides in the
northeastern part of town and
his family had all gone to church.
At the hour mentioned he was
sitting quietly in his room en-
ijoying himself when he heard a
rapping at the front door. He
said come in" and they came;
two of EN- with masks on their
faces and pistols in their hands.
Presenting the muzzles Of the
pistols at Mr.. Hosea they de-
manded the key of his safe. He
told them it was in BreedlovcS
safe; this they did not seem 70
believe and threatened to NJ
duce his stature by blowing his(
head off. He then asked the
maskcrs if money was what they,
wanted; they replied, Eyes"
He told them they could hdve
what he had in the bureau
drawer; he showed it to them
and they took some sI4 or SIS.
This done they made him back
into a dark room where they
tied his hands and promised to
kill him if he made any noise.
He told them that he had no
occasion to make any disturb
ance. They then informed him
that they had probably made a
mistake in the house but would
soon return. They then de-
parted leaving Mr.. Hoasa tied.
In a short time he managed to
release himself and went to the
house of neighbor and gave
the alarm. BY this time how
ever the robbers were at a safe
distance. The night police and
several citizens afterwards visit
ed the premises, but no trace of
the bold robbers could be found.
1t is said that a third robber
stood guard at the front gate
while the other two were doing
their work indoors. From their
voices Mr.. Hosea is satisfied
that they were white men and
that they were familiar with his
habits and with his premises.
This is one of the most daring
robberies that has been COM
mitted in this vicinity for a long
time and much indignation |
was expressed. 1t would seem
to be dangerous thing to in
vite strangers into house after
dark. 1t is extremely likely |
that the perpetrators of this out |
rage reside hereabouts.

Dobbin's Electric Soap.

Having obtained the agency of this ctle-
brated Soap for Brenham and vicinity, |
append the opinion Of some of our best
people as TO its merits.
We hereby certify that we have used
Dobbins' Electric Soap, made by I. l.
Cragin & Co., Philadelphia, Pa, and state
that its use has given general satisfaction.
That it is pure soap, and although little
higher priced than other common rosin
soaps, il is worth more than the difference
in price. We therefore recommend it to al
who dssire strictly hrst-class soap.

THRowN.-An amusing Incl
dent occurred in front of the
BANNER Office on Saturday af-
ternoon. A horse trading ne
gro about six feet long had just
traded for an animated rack or
"crow-bait" in the shape of a
very hairy mustang pony. He
had put his saddle and bride
on it and having on Il pair of
spurs a trifie larger than full
grown dinner plates he mount
ed. The pony was very lean
and very demure; it did not
discover the presence of the
big negro on its back until he
planted both of the great big
spurs in its thin TANKS; this
seemed to wake the pony up;
it didn't exactly buck, but it
hogged its back until it was as
round as a barrel hoop, its next
mova WAC tO incert ire head he
tween its forelegs, while with
its hind legs it gave one kick
the thing was done-the negro
and his spurs, the saddle-blan-
ket, the saddle and the bride
were all in a heap on the street
and the pony danced an In
dian war dance over the pile.

Palatable, Powerful, Antiperiodic
and Tonic,

All the necessaries of great popular
remedy are combined in Clifford's Febri-
fuge. As tonic, in debilitated states Of
system, this remedy stands pre-eminently
at the head. Yet it is more than is usually
understood by that term, for no other prep
aration known exercises an eradicatng
power over intermittent diseases. at all
comparable with it. As tits probable that
in the intervals of the paroxysms of these
diseases train of Morbid actions is going
out of our sight, so it is equally probable
that this remedy produces in the same sys-
TEN an action equal mysterious, which SUI
persedes that of the malady and thus ac-
composites the restoratia0 Of the patient.

on Saturday at McFarland's

was found. 1t was tackled up
with a supplemental notice that
an ascension would take place

number Of country people staid
in town, and at the appointed
time quite a little crowd had as

WANTS TO GO CRAzY.-A pris-
oner confined in the county jail
on a charge of murder is nearly
dead to go crazy. He has been
for nearly a week doing every
thing in his power to make the
sheriff believe that he is actually
crazy. The sheriff asked the
county. physician, who had seen
the patient, what he thought of
the case; the doctor said the
man was undoubtedly sane. The
other night the would-be crazy
man began "hollowing" in his
cell; the sheriff went to him and
told him that he had asked the
doctor, and the doctor said he
wasn't crazy worth a cent, and
that as he had been in the army
he knew that whatever the doc
tor said, went; that he wasn't
crazy, and that if he "hollered"
again, he would certainly be
gagged" The would-be crazy
man then asked the sheriff if he
would gag him sure enough.
The sheriff said he most certain
lywould. The man hasn't "hol-
Tered" since, but he sometimes
gets SO mad that he actually
froths at the mouth. The sher-
if is of the opinion that the
mans lawyer, 4 well known prac-
titioncr at our bar, told his eli
ent to SO crazy. Ii won't work
yet awhile,

OK Sunday last Messrs. Henry
and John Grabow, William
Korff and Vim Amthor paid a
visit to the residence of Mr..

store. They took out a fine lot
of shrubbery and evergreens
which they planted on the
graves of the late Kinney Krug,
his wife and two sisters whose
untimely death by drowning last
summer will be recollected.
This was a touching tribute to
the memory of the deceased as
well as of respect to the venera-
bic father, Mr.. R. Krug. The
day was pleasantly spent.

SILK WORM CULTURE.-Mr.
c. F. Herbst, who last year
made a successful experiment on
a small scale with silk worms, is
this season going to experiment
more extensively, with a view,
if possible, of arriving at some
definite result. He has already
demonstrated beyond any doubt
that the worms" can be sue
cessfully raised and it now re-
mains to be determined what
can be accomplished by raising
them. The silk worm eggs kept
over from last season, are per-
fectly sound and in good con-
dition. The agricultural depart
ment at Washington will furnish
Mr.. Herbst with some of the
best breeds of acclimated and
improved worms for expert
menting with by feeding them
or the bois dare leaves instead
of mulberry. He has procured
a piece of ground and set out
several thousand cuttings of the
Japanese mulberry tree, a plant
especially adapted to feeding
silk worms. Mr.. Herbst is in
earnest in his experiment, and
has spent considerable time and
money in working it up. He
promises to keep the BANNER
advised of his progress in the
worm business, and it in turn
will keep its readers advised.
