GLADSTONE, finding coercion an
unpopular act, not only in Ireland but
in England as we'll, and not in conso.
nance with his own feelings, struck a
bold blow for the restoration of peace
and the stability of his government,
by removing Mr.. Forster and Earl
Cowper and substituting for them,
Earl Spencer and Lord Frederick
Cavendish, well-known liberal noble
men whose feelings were for the largest
possible concessions to Ireland, conso.
nant with the unity of the kingdom.
Earl Spencer and Lord Cavendish
arrived in Dublin Saturday and met
with an ovation on their way to the
castle. They were engaged with bust
ness until about six o'clock, when they
separated and repaired to their several
hotels. After dinner Lord Frederick
and Under Secretary Burke sauntered
out for walk in Phoenix Park, when
they were both murdered, being
stabbed TO death in the most horrible
manner. No clue to their assassins.
Thus in one dark moment has all the

First-Class Road Horses.

Very fast roadsters are the most
valuable in the market of any class OF
horses produced, being in demand at
high prices for gentlemen's driving.
The eXtrayagant prices paid for the
flyers by wealthy gentlemen who have
a pride in owning fine-styled drivers,
that will take the lead on the road, is
sometimes almost incredible. ANY
breeder who raises first or second class
trOtterS can find market for them at
high figures. Those able trot a mile
in 2:25 or better will sell for from
5000 to $4,000, both the first and sec
ond class, with good style, finding
ready market at these high figures,
and bringing considerably more for
private driving than they are worth
for public racing,
The principal reasons why breeders
train and tit their colts for the track,
and enter them for trotting engage
ments is, that they want to exhibit
their speed and style of going to the
public, with view of negotiating with
private parties for their sale for gentle
mems driving horses. 1t is often not
the temptatiod to win large sums in
purses that induces owners to engage
their stock in trotting circuits, for it is
only the fastest steeds that win any
considerable amount over expenses in
the trotting circuits, but breeders enter
their stock in these trotting events to
give them. market value. There is an
extensive demand for firstsclass road
sters, that will continue to increase as
the country grows in wealth and
population, Should the present won
derful rate of increase continue for
the next forty years, it requires but
little sagacity to foreSee that we must
double our animal and vegetable pro-
auctions in order to supply the de-
mandS of our own population. No
breeder need to be discouraged for
fear that the market will be over
stocked with horses, for the foreign
and home demand will more than
equal the supply for half century to
come. The present demand and future
prospects, ought to encourage the
breeder to raise an additional supply
of all kind of stock to meet
the increasing demand at
home and abroad. So long
as the public prefer fast roadsters for
driving purposes, they will pay good
profit on the cost of production. The
public demand for fast driving horses
has taken from the course some of its
brightest ornaments, which have been
purchased and retired from the race
course to private stables. This in
tense rivalry between gentlemen of
wealth to own the fastest roadsters,
has prompted them to purchase the
most famous horses on the turf, at ex-
travagantly high prices, for their own
use. Speed and style are the qualities
they require, and the more of these
horse possesses the higher prices he
will command.-National Live Stock
Journal.

ROld Robbery.

One night a few days ago a Mr..
Hensley, who lives northeast of Will
larger creek, was aroused by hearing
a noise out at his stable. The gates
creaked and Squeaked, and, thinking
that one of his horses had broken
loose, he went out to investigate.
When he came to the stable he found
the yard gate open, and just at that
point he heard a noise at another gate
beyond, which opened out on the
prairie. He started around in that
direction about twenty PAGES when
he was suddenly confronted by tall
man, almost running into him in the

Mr.. Hensley found himself looking
into the muZZle of a revolver and con-
cluded that it was best to obey. The
robber then told him he wanted a
saddle and bride, and he forced the
farmer, at the point of his pistol, to go
and deliver up the required articles,
after which he took the terrified Hens
ley out on the prairie with him and
finally rode off with his booty. Hensley
returned to the house, secured a gun,
and went in search of some neighDors
to help catch the thief, but he has not
been seen or heard of since.

Though only six years old it possesses
the business air OF an older city, and
confidently boasts of its grand future,
and well it may.
The contract to build the Taylor
water works is closed, and the ques-
ton as to an abundant supply of water
being afforded is no longer an open
one.
Several handsome brick stores are
on the principal streets, but the mag
nificent three-story brick hotel, with
forty-eight rooms, fronting the depot,
is the main attraction.
The fertility of the surrounding
country is almost unsurpassed; within
a radius of ten miles the land is all
susceptible of high state of cultiva-
ton. and is being sold at from five to
twenty-five dollars per acre, Within
this radius 5000 sheep, of the best
grades, are now grazing. The exports
must rapidly increase; this year the

Murder Of Willie Gray.

Day before yesterday Mr.. B. S. Pill
low, of this city, was called away, by
telegram, to Saltillo, Mexico, where
his brother-in-law, Mr.. Willie Gray.
was laying at the point of death from
a pistol-shOt wound in the head. I'm
til yesterday, no one in the city knew
any particulars of the sad affair, but
the details of the crime finally reached
here, and they are about as follows:
Mr.. Gray has for some time past been
suffering with pulmonary disease, and
by the advice of his physicians he
went to Saltillo, Mexico. For some
time he has been residing in the same
house with DIR. r. H. L. Bib, former v
of this city, and the relations betwsl n
him and DR.. and Mrs. Bibb have be, n
of the most friendly and pleasant ma
ture. But for some unknown reason
DIR. Bib became jealous of the at.
tentions paid to Gray by Mrs. Bibb.
She, in her womanly sympathy for the
afflicted. did all in her power to allie
viate the sufferings of Mr.. Gray.
What transpired between DIR. and
Mrs. Bibb on the night of the murder
we cannot say, but things were not of
the most pleasant nature. The re-
port, as received here, states that DIR.
Bibb seized a revolver and went into
Mr.. Gray's room, where he was lying
asleep, and shot him without a word
of warning. The bullet en-
tered the right eye and
came out at the back of
the neck. Gray did not die immedi-
ately. A lady of this city who was a
guest in the same house, sat up with
him all that night, but there were NO
hopes of his recovery.
A private telegram received here
last night stated that Mr.. Gray was
dead, and that DIR. Bib had been ar.
rested at the instance of the Ameri
can consul. This is very sad affair
and one that must be handled witt
care. As soon as full particulars ar,
received they win be published in thu

RENDER TO CESAR.

The Austin correspondent of the
San Antonio Express has evidently
drifted into an error regarding mat
ter of public importance. 1t is known
that Greer county is disputed territory;
that is. 1t is claimed by Texas and
by the United States. the dispute
arising on the question as TO whether
the north or the south fork of Red
River is the boundary line according
to the old treaty between Texas and
the Indian Territory. Texas has never
given up the claim, but has legislated
as to Greer county, and some years
ago the legislature reserved the lands
In its limits for educational purposes.
Owing TO the dispute as to title. the
commissioner Of the land Office has
never recognized files made upon these
lands as part of the states domain
and hence land locators have never
gained even color of title 70 any Dor
ton OF the county. But there has ALWAYS
been wanting evidence as to which
fork of Red River is the boundar,
