Once COlOred Always Colored.

A negro woman was relating her experience
to gaping congregation of color, and among
other things she said she had been in heaven.
One of the ladies of color asked her, 'Sister,
did you see any black folks in heaven ?" 80,
git out 'spose 60 in de kitchen when was
dare !? This reminds one of the anecdote of
a colored man who was so convinced of the
lowllness of his position, and that labor was
his natural lot, that he was even Indifferent as
to future state, believing that ''dey'll make
Niger work, even eff he 60 to hebben." A
clergyman tried to argue him out of this opin
ion by representing that this could not be the
case, inasmuch as there was absolutely no
work for him to do in heaven. His answer
was "Oh, you g'way, massa, I know better;
if dares no work cultured folks up dar. dey'll
make some fur 'um; and # dere's muffin better
to do. dey'll make 'em shub de clouds along.
You can't fool dis chile, massa."

Engaging Manners.

There are a thousand pretty engaging little
ways which every person may put on. without
running the risk of being deemed either affec-
ted or foppish. The sweet smile, tine quiet.
cordial bow, the earnest movement in address
sing friend, or more especially a stranger,
whom one may recommend toour regards, the
inquiring glance, the graceful attention which
is so captivating when united with self-posses-
sion-these will insure us the good regards Of
even churl. Above all, there is a certain
softlless of manner that should be cultivated,
and which, in either man or woman, adds a
charm that almost entirely compensates for
lack of beauty. The voice can be modulated
so to intonate that it will speak directly to the
heart, and from that elicit an answer, and pol
iteness may be made essential to our own ma
ture. Neither is time thrown away in attend
ing to such things, insignificant as they may
seem to those who engage in weightier mat
ters,-I Exchange.

BANDERA'S EXAMPLE.

The employment of Mr. E. P. Claudon as
an expert to make thorough examination of
the financial affairs of the county of Bandera
and the result attained by the expert, should
act as valuable suggestion to other counties
in the state, and especially to our county.
Mr.. Claudon found the books the county ap-
parently all right when he began his investi-
CATION, but upon the termination of his labors
the several county officers found in arrears
came up like little men and settled, except the
sheriff who declared he would not pay an
amount of $I,79S.S9 due previous to 1880,
but would pay the $3,2l1 SO due since that
date.
There is very unsatisfactory feeling enter
tanned by our citizens in regard to our 6nan-
ces, and we'll settled impression that a full
and searching investigation would unearth
Irregularities covering a dosen years of our
county government.
Is it too late for the grand jury to require
the services or an expert? But the county
officials themselves ought to promote such an
investigation in order to lay at rest all uneasy
opinions in regard to our county finances.

"MONOLITH NO. e."

Our exposure of the "Monolith" trick,
played from Austin, will appear more appar-
ent now, that another communication, dated
Uvalde, and signed "Monolith No. T." ap-
pears in the Express this morning. The style
is the same, and, while the charge is vague, it
is, exactly like the first, destitute of truth. We
may expect to see "Monolith No.. g." from
some other point in the district, unless our ex-
posure of this campaign bureau fraud compels
them to get up something else.

MURDER BOOM IN LAREDO.
A. L. Scott, a Barkeeper, Killed. ~
A Shot Gun in the Hands of Louis C. Schi1-
ling Did 1t.
Villains Stray Bullets Strike Good Men.


A. L. Scott, bartender at the Commercial
hotel bar, was shot and almost instantly killed
by Louis c. Schilling, tonight, about seven
o'clock. The facts in the case, as correctly
as can be ascertained tonight are as follows
Schilling owed small amount at the bar,
and has been asked for it repeatedly To-
night he went in and Scott asked him wheth-
er ne was going to pay it. Schiling, it is
said, gave him an insulting reply, when Scott
struck him with glass or bottle, and coming
out from behind. they clinched, when Schil-
ling got two of SCOTS fingers in his mouth,
and while holding his fingers between his
teeth, asked him, Scott, if he would let
him alone. Scott told him that he would
for while. Schilling then let 20. Scott
then ran Immediately to the hotel and
got Winchester rifle, and Schilling ran
across the street to his shop and took his
double-barreled gun. 1t is disputed who fired
the trst shot. Schilling claims that he kept
behind the door until Scott fired at him, the
ball striking him in the side, making very
painful wound, but not at all serious, and then
he stepped out from behind the door and fred
both barrels of his gun almost simultaneously.
A man, who claims to have seen it all, says
that, as Scott came out of the hotel door, and
was looking for Schilling, that Schilling fired
at him, and then they both fired at about the
same time, Anyway, there were three shots
fired. Scott is from Waco, and has lived here
for the past five months, and was known
as Archie Smith, having assumed
that name on account of some difficulty he had
had elsewhere. Schilling's parents live IN
Bastrop, Texas. The coroner's inquest will
be held in the morning at o'clock. There
men were struck by stray bullets from Schil-
ling's gun, but none seriously. Victor Cal
vayrac, the proprietor of the Commercial ho-
tel, was struck in the abdomen A guest of
the hotel, and Mr.. Sullivan, a sheep man, was
struck in the leg.

Revue AnecdOtique.

Revue AnecdOtique.
The general of whom we give the following
bon mot, was at the time colonel in command
of regiment during the war in Africa, wheth-
er IN the north, south, east or west, matters
little to our readers. But the future field mar
shall had hasty temper, and with him a
word was blow. He once sent lieutenant
to carry an order, and this officer returned to
give report Of his mission. 1t appeared that
he had made a serious mistake in the delivery
of the order. and the colonel, yiel'i-g to his
first impulse, struck heavy blow with his
riding whip over the shoulders of the lieuten-
ant. The latter, without moments hesita-
ton, fred pistol point blank at his colonel.
Fortunately the pistol missed fire. You can i'm.
apine the situation: the by-standers all trem-
bIed with excitement. The officer waited he
had not to wait long. Lieutenant" said the
colonel, "you will take forty-eight hours ar
rest for having your arms in bad condition"

In the opinion of Sir Richard Temple, the
latest explorations do not show that the large
sandy surfaces of our globe, like the Sahara
in Africa and the Cobb in Asia, are recently
dried-up sea-bottoms. These explorations
have chiefly been confined to the sinking of
Algerian wells, and from these have been
taken, at depth of 23o feet and at less dis
tances, fishes, crabs, and fresh-water mollusks.
These creatures were perfectly alive, and one
of the crabs, when boiled, was found of excel
lent taste. This goes to show that so far as
Sahara is concerned, i. is not recently raised
sea basin.

A Mississippi doctor proposes the use of
the arc electric light for killing the moths,
from the eggs Of which the destructive cotton
worm is hatched. 1t is well known that
brush fires or burning rubbish will attract
these pests, and it is probable that the bril-
liant electric light would destroy in short
time enough moths to make good the cost
At any rate the experiment is worth while
being made.

REORGANIZATION OF MERCHANT.
EXCHANGE.
Bucket Shop Busted.

The merchants exchange of our city, to
save some of the expense of maintaining their
establishment, rented the lower story to be
used as "bucket shop" which has been run
during the summer with very poor success for
the proprietor, and we learn that it has been
discontinued, and the exchange people pro-
pose to open up their exchange again and to
enlarge its usefulness.
In order to embrace all business men an
offer will be made to take in members free of
fee, and only being subject to the tax Of
maintaining the exchange.
Our present business season opens with a
greater rush and more prosperity than any
preceding one. The merchants exchange
will bring our business men together and en-
able them to guard their interests and con-
tinue for further victories.
