RocKwALL, TEX, July II, 1SS2.-Since
the rain last Sunday night occasional show
ers have fallen, and seem to impart vigor'
Gus growth to vegetation. Farmers are be-
ginning to fear that the protracted wet
weather will serve to produce the Dol J.
worm in cotton. The corn crop is simply
enormous.
On Saturday the Long Branch people
gave picnic in a grove five miles south
east from town, which was q real, genuine
success.
Captain Nash, of Dallas county, was in

Professor 1. J. Austin acted as marshal. T..
L. Stanfield was introduced as candidate
for district-attorney, who made a short ad.
dress announcing his candidacy, and then
entertained the crowd for about twenty-five
minutes on political topics. DR.. j. d. Par
sons then appeared and was introduced as
a candidate for floater, and spoke about
thirty minutes, giving a clear, forcible, con-
else statement of his views on the issues
upon which the people are interested.
No one went from this county to the state
convention. Il. G. Heath was one of the
delegates and appointed DR.. A. j. Childress,
of Terrell, his alternate, instructing for
Roberts for governor; g., W. Smith for
lieutenant governor -, for comptroller;
Templeton for attorney general; Watts,
supreme Judge, and Hurt for court Of APP
peals. A good ticket.
A very singular fatality occurred near
town last Friday. Two cows, one of them
belonging to W. B. Wade, of this place, a
very valuable animal, engaged IN a combat
which proved fatal to Mr.. Wade's COW.
They came together, the other striking the
fatal shot with the points of the horn be,
tween the eyes, penetrating the skull OF
Wade's cow from which she fell instantly
dead. The contest Gf such it might be
called. was witnessed by eyewitness,
otherwise, from the appearance of the
wound, almost any person would have tes-
tilted that she was shot with rifle.

Sheriff Wilson, Of Kalfman county, aud

man who gave his namo as q. w. Ornbbs,
at Mayors beer garden on Fin street, last
night about . o'clock, on suspicion OF bobg
ono OF the murderers Of Dir. Thomas,
commissary Of the construction force on tho
Texas Central northeast extension, in his
tent neDr the town of Kaufman last Friday.
A negro named Seth Mage was arrested on
suspicion and lodged IN Jail nj Kaufman,
but since that time there has been develop
nents that lead the officers to believe
that the crime was committed by other
parties, and thus far suspicion rests upon
Grubbs as one of the guilty parties.
Thomas, the murdered man, II
Will be remembered, was found dead
Saturday morning in his tent
with several very ugly wounds
about the head inflicted by bludgeon.
Saturday morning man answering the
description OF Grubbs deposited $3.50 IN the
bank OF Is. nj. Childress % Bros, and his
peculiar actions and the questions he
asked coupled with the statement that the
the murdered man had on his person some
$oOO which was missing when the body was
found. aroused their suspicion, and when
City Marshal Riddle returned the following
day from an official trip in the coun-
try, the bank notified him and
gave him description of the depositor,
who took receipt in the name OF himself
and another Grubbs, whom he said was
his brother. He wanted to know before
depositing of the bank officials if he could
not delegate some one else to
draw the money when he wanted IT, giving
as reason by way Of explanation that he
was railroad man, and that he could
not tell where he would be.
1t is said that he was seen
hanging about the tent of the commissary
several days before the murder was COM
mitted, and that he had passed there under
the name of Thomas, the same as that of
the murdered man. He was taking in the
garden last night when the officers arrested
him. They feel satisfied that they have
the right man, and will take him to Terrell
this morning for Identification.

The nlow-storm. Houses.

A wind-storm, accompanied by light
rain, thunder and lightning, visited the
city yesterday morning about o'clock.
The wind was stiff, the thunder loud and
the flashes of the lightning almost binding,
which lead TO the belief that a dangerous
storm was brewing, and many Of those who
had cellars under their houses,
went into them for safety, yet
IL passed over without doing
any damage. Storm-houses are getting
quite common nowadays, especially in the
country and smaller towns, and some OF
our cities have taken the precaution to
build them. Their construction is very
simple, and no expense is attached, being
simply hole dug some six feet deep and
wide enough to hold the occupants Of the
premises on which Il is made, and
Is covered over at the top by a few stout
pieces of timber covered with dirt and the
whole sOdded over. When the storm
threatens destruction safety is gained by
entering the excavation, small opening
being LEFT open 10 allow an entrance.

tlr. VI. q. Stevenson, fe~o'my NJ lho
Merchants Exohpneo md Board of Tmlc,
makes tie following report NJ fcAis crops
for the week ending Saturday July ltih'
The whole situation has ohnnged. After
a cessation Of one months duration great
rain fell last Sunday hight aud Monday
morning and again on Wednesday night
and Thursday. The earth WIS completely
saturated with oil the water II would hold.
The rains extended from the Indian Terri
tory south 10 the gulf, and from the vest
crn boundary line Of Louisiana TO "a far
west as Texas is settled, thus including
every county devoted TO agriculture In the
state And there Is scarcely one thsy have
not benefited at least one million dollars.
| The last report spoke OF cotton either
stopped growing or growing slowly, and
corn whitening and prematurely hardening;
Of vegetation In gardens dead or dying.
Everything to-day looks rs bright, fresh
and green as upon May morning, or like
giant coming up refreshed with wine"
The following Is the situation in detail:
The small grain crops have been har'
vested and are now being marketed. From
their sales farmers will have ample revenue
to run them until they begin to sell cotton
The yield has been enormous.
The corn crop will beyond any question
average over 50 bushels to the acre. Many
fields will go to GO and some to even 70
Fihy-iive bushels the state over is not fiil
from the average. The rains Of the week
have placed the crop beyond any
contingency. The area planted j.
greater and the yield will be the
heaviest in gross ever produced
once more furnishing conclusive proof o
Texas beiI ?; the finest grain growing state
in the Union. No fertilizers are used here
for any purpose whatever, tho natural
strength OF the soil rendering that expense
and trouble unnecessary. Texas will and
supply the state three years, and will
therefore, have large surplus for export
The rains found our cotton crop. almost
at a standstill, but it instantly revived it,
and during the week the weed has
been growing rapidly. Before lit will
need another it will have obtained sufii-
Gent height at least for an average crop.
! 1t is fruiting heavily, with the fields per-
| fectly clean Of grass. No worms or cater
pillars as yet reported. 1t is too soon for
| them to appear.
In general the rains of the week have re-
vived and given a new lease Of lie to field
and forest garden, vineyard, orchard and
meadow. No citizen OF Texas ever saw in
July such grand'v beautiful crops or had
more reason to rejoice over the prosperity
Of his state.
