PATIENTS BURNED ANp FRoZgS.

A bulletin to the st. Paul Pioneer Press from
II. Peter says: THE number OF lives lost by
burning and freezing at The Insane asylum Is
variouSly estimated at from twenty ID flfCy.
The loss on the building is S3oo,0o0." A
special dispatch dated a. M. says: "rhe

Many OF them refused 10 leave the building at

TEXAS CONGRESSNEN.
A District in D0uhf.

Especial Dispatch to The Epening Stdr.1
AUSTIN, TRXAs, Nov. 1.-THE election for
Congressman in the fifth district of this state Is
not yet decided. The district covers a large
section Of the state and embraces twenty-one
counties, some OF them but sparsely settled and
remote from railroads. The returns from Bra
zoria and Matagorda counties are not yet re-
ceved. Without those counties Shepard den
is lS3 votes ahead OF Jones, greenbacker. 1t Is
believed that Shepard has carried both Brazoria
and Matagorda counties by very small majori-
ties, and is therefore elected but there Is no
certainty Of this, and Jones' friends are still
hopeful that he may win.

A NOVEL CASE is under consideration by judge
Lawrence, first controller Of the Treasury.
Three years ago, when the avenue pavement
was in course OF construction. the Trinidad AS
phalt company borrowed $4,000 OF a Bostoa
firm. The corporation made an assignment to
the firm OF an amount equal to the loan, to be
paid out OF the 10 per centum retained by the
United States TO see that the company kept the
pavement in repair for three years. This 10
per eentum is invested in Z. S. bonds. Subse-
quently the paving company incurred other OBJ
legations, and suit in chancery followed
against them. The court gave Judgment The
question before the controller is whether he
shall turn over the proceeds OF the bonds to the
order OF the court or recognize the assignmen.

A Curious Case.

On Saturday evening last, the McGre-
gor freight, between Adams and Rose
Creek stations, suddenly came upon some
men on the track. One was lying with
hisIhead on the rail and his body on the
outside. The speed Of the engine was
slackened but could not be stepped in
time to save the mans head from being
pushed one side, and bad, but not dan
gerous cut the result. Just before the
train stopped, another man who was
standing by, took to his heels and hid in
some tall grass. Brakeman Brooks soon
hunted him out and took him and the
Injured man on board the train, and
brought them to Austin, one being lodged
in Jail to await an examination on a
charge of murder, the other in hospita
to doctor his head. Some supposed that
the man had been robbed while IN his
drunken stupor, and placed upon the
track to get rid Of him. But robbery GER
talnly was not the motive, as fifteen or TWEEN.
ty dollars were found in his pocket. Blu,
that foul play of some kind was the object
of the man in Jail is evident, from the
fact that he did not attempt to rescue him
from position where certain death seemd
inevitable. OF course it is impossible tc
determine his intentions in regard to the
PROSTATE man lying before him on the
track drunk. The circumstantial evi
)dence will certainly be very much agains
him.
