ANY news?" asked HERALD reporter
to one of the most prominent citizens of
Dallas yesterday morning. "No, said he, "but
wish to show you letter received and
ifyou notice it in your local columns it may
save some one from being bamboozled, The
letter which follows, mentions cigars, under
scored and in an expression used among the
counterfeiting fraternity for the spurious
issues. Accompanying the letter was piece
ofprinted matter purported to have been
clipped from New York paper. The two
articles explain themselves.
New YORK. Oct, 10th, 1881.
My Dear Sir: desire to secure the ser
vices of eliable man in your locality to
push the sale of a certain class of goods
which | manufacture. My travelling agent,
who passed through your vicinity lately,
informed me that you were person ON
whom one coul1 rely to keep secret that
promised to put big money in your pocket.
To come to the point at once, l am dealing
in a peculiar brand of cigars" Read the
enclosed extract taken from one of our lead
ing papers, then you will understand me
thoroughly. If | have made mistake by
writing to the wrong man, please excuse
me and just let the matter drop For
further particulars address

The clipped article is headed Supposed
case of counterfeiting- dismissed, -
which reads as follows Yesterday morning
a well-dressed lady reported to Justice viii
hanson that she had accidentally come
into possession of letter to gentleman in
this city from wealthy counterfeiter in
New Yo.k. The letter purported, she said
offering OF cigars for sale; but that de-
tached note in the envelope plainly in
Dictated that cigars meant coun-
terfeit money of the best quality. Upon
these representations the gentleman was ar
rested at his hotel and brought before His
Honor. He gave his name as Robert S.
Maxwell. He stated that he gol acquainted
with the lady on the incoming train and
conversed with her for two or three hours:
that at the end of the route he missed his
pocket-book, containing small sum OF
money and some papers of no value that
was the thief, but did not wish
to prosecute and concluded to drop
her acquaintance. Upon searching his va
lise about $1,000 in new money but no let
tiers, were found. The cashier of the Third
National Bank was sent for, who, after n
critical examination of the bills, pronounced
them to be genuine. He was, of course,
discharged. Maxwell had evidently been
drinking, and during moment of excessive
indulgence had given himself away, or had
entertained his fair acquaintance with some
ghost stories.

RAILROAD MOVEMENTS.


| What the Various Com pAnfeS are Doing
| in Eastern Nevada.
A gentleman just from the borders OF
the Utah line informs the White Pine
Meas that the country out that way is
alive with different parties of railroad
surveyors. The Utah and Nevada broad
guage road (Jay Gould's) is pushing
westward at a rapid rate with a heavy
force of graders. The road will pass
through Lincoln county, and possibly
run close by White river in White Pine
and Duckwater in Nye county. The
Denver & Rio Grande and Eureka &
Colorado River companies also have
several surveying parties now in the
passes on the Utah line. The building
of Gould's road may be set down as an
assured fact. In this, connection it is
interesting to know how the Central
Pacific propose to check the Eastern
railroad king. The New York Tribune
of recent date gives this outline of
the policy Of the c. P. managers c.
p. Huntington, of the Central Pacific,
said the officers of the road believed
the Union Pacific was encroaching on
their rights west Of Ogden, and there
fore they intended to build an indepen-
dent road from Ogden to the Mississ-
ippi river. The surveying party had
found a road from Pacific Springs to the
river distance of 740 miles, through
an open, productive country, about 100
miles north of the Union Pacific line.
The road from Ogden to Pacific Springs,
/. distance of 100 miles west, is not so
good but could be made available. |
About two months ago 10000 tons Of
steel rails had been ordered from En-
gland, to be shipped by March 1st.
said if the Union Pacific |
continued to build its connection with |
Ogden, the Central Pacific would GER
tainly build an eastern connection with
tho Mississippi river; otherwise the
project would be abandoned. The Or
of the company to build the
.oad could be effected in "a hours, and I
he rails would be ready to begin the
work at once.

THE GREAT UNRELIABLE j.

Senator David Davis, of Illinois, il
nothing if not unreliable. 1t may well
be said of him that his politics are
"mysterious and past finding out
While under the influence of his old
partner, Abraham Lincoln, Davis was a
reasonably reliable Republican. But
Davis got the Presidential bee in his
bonnet, fancied the whole country was
clamoring for him through reform
howl, and he deserted his party even
before such unselish patriots as George
William Curtis had heard the harsh
grating of I" the machine " in the rarty.
Davis among boilers is the one alto
gether lovely. Through the manipula-
items of John A. Logan, one of the
shrewdest politicians, who was probably
half fearful of Davis on the Bench as
one of the Electoral Commission. "the
big Illinoisan was elected to the
United States Senate. Since his adj
mission to that body his party ms and
outs have been as mysterious as the
movements of the Irishman's flea.
One day he acted with the Democrats,
the next he was hand and glove with
the Republicans, and each party con-
sidered him less dangerous while acting
with the other. The other day, when
his vote was powerless either for good
or evil, and when he could not help the
Republicans or hurt the Democrats, he
voted with the former in the election of
a President pro tenn. of the Senate.
" Now, Pm DONE" said Davis, al
must shut off the steam of my Repub-
licanism, and toddle back to my DEM
ocratic tent" But then he is liable
not to reach the latter, especially if
some Autobiography siren meets him
on the way and throws her blandish-
ments around him in the way of a
promised Presidential nomination. The
Great Unreliable in national affairs has
been found, and his name is David
Davis.

Sea Lions.

On the arrival of the females the
younger males appear tc do duty as
ushers in marshaling the "cows" to
their places OH the rocks and cliffs

selection of females by the males pro
coed apace, until each happy family,
with dozen or fifteen cows, has been
duly constituted. The progress of Sc
lection and sea lion courtship is fire.
quently attended with some very
disastrous consequences to the lady
members of the community. When
male envious of the choice of his neigh
Dor, sees an opportunity, he does not
hesitate to avail himself Of the chance,
and not only covet, but literally to steal,
his neighbours mate. The desired COW
is unceremoniously lifted in the mouth
of the captor, and transferred with all
possible expedition to his own family
group. Great is the sorrow of the be-
reaved male, but woe to both intruder
and female should the thief be discov-
cred in the act. A fierce and sanguin-
airy fight ensues, and the hapless, pass
i've and altogether innocent cause of
the combat may get dreadfully injured
while the combat lasts.

A Chicago police captain arrested a
wife murderer, but could not find the re-
mains of the woman and the case
seemed likely to fall through. knowing
that the prisoner would be speedily
discharged unless some proof was forth
coming, the Captain entered the cell
with a paper in his hand and said |:
"Your wife isn't dead, after all. She
was found alive where you left her, and
taken to q hospital. This is her sworn
statement Of what you did to her. She
wants to see YOU" The murderer was
completely deceived. On the way to
the hospital, as he supposed, he was
induced to tell where he had shot his
wife, and there the body was found. II
