AT this season of the year the "Jack Rab-
bit' is wormey and unfit to kill.
The receipts from the Volksfest will reach

The grand jury organized to-day and are

There was plentiful exhibit of wool and
hay on the Military plaza this morning.

seen on our streets have been REMARKABLY few.

boy on South Flores street, has entirely recov-
cred under the care of Drs. Jones & Bowen,
and the man who shot himself accidentally
and fractured his leg, is also recovering with
out amputation, under the care of the same
medical gentlemen.
We have remarked in regard to Col. An.
drew's eloquence poisoning like a flower
garden, at the conclusion of his Grafton yes
terday it was literally illustrated by the pre-
sentation of huge boquet to the Colonel,
which he hung on to during the rest of the
evening as Pic Wick did his hired horse.
Yesterday about noon a man named
Sweeney who had too heavy load of the
ardent, dared all the visitors at saloon on
Soledad street to put him out in language
neither polite nor pleasant. Officer Kroeger,
after succeeding in getting his man on the
street, was knowned down in first round and
was compelled to use some rough but forcible
persuasion before he could become master OF
the situations; the officer could not get any help
from the bystanders, but they all raised the
cry when the officer in self protection had to
resort to hard knocks.

satisfactory, and yet it was not what it could
or would have been if each had done what he
could have done for the church.
The dean was listened to with marked at
tention, and the whole formed an interesting
address OF which we have the pleasure TO pre-
sent a summary. The church is indeed to be
congratulated on its success, the purity of its
services and the excellent way in which it is
governed

The conductor of the passenger was warned
that an attempt would be made by the con-
ductor of a norih.bound freight train that
had passed the robbers at the water-tank
Just north Of Vinita, the place where the
other attempt was made some two weeks
ago. As the freight passed the water'tank
the conductor and train men distinctly saw
ten heavily armed men, who retreated rs
though they had been taken by surprise,
and brakeman, who was on forward car,
says that they all wore their pants In their
boots and wore SLOUGH hats pulled close
down. 1t appears that, from his position
on the car and the manner in which the
locomotives light fell on them; that he
got q better OF view of them than the others,
and he differs with them as to the number,
inasmuch as he says there were only nine
of them. From q passenger aboard the
lrain, who arrived in the city yesterday,
HERALD reporter learned the following :
When the freight met the passenger train
and gave the warning, the conductor told
all the passengers that the train was, gong
to be attacked and that all who desired
could turn over their valuables TO the ex-
press messenger, who would lock them up
In the safe, and forthwith the passengers
with fear and trembling began to hand
over their money, watches and Jewelry TO
the messenger, who locked them up. one
of the passengers, burly Scotch
man, said he was only too sorry
that the safe was not large enough to hold
him. The passengers were advised to keep
cool as though no attack was anticipated,
which they utterly failed to do, as each
was hunting for what they conceived TO be
the most secure point. In the mean tlme
while this was going on ten armed men men
had been secured i'll the immediate
neighborhood, and from among the passen-
gers, in addition to the guards on the train,
| when it resumed its south-bound trip, run
ming rather slow as it neared the water
tank and Vinita, as it was feared that the
robbers might attempt to ditch the train.
Both places were passed, however,
without discovering any signs OF
the bandits, and the passengers
drew long breath of relief when the two
dreaded points had been passed. 1t IS
presumed that the robbers susplcloned
that they had been discovered from the fact
of the train running SLOW, or they may
have seen that the train was heavily armed.
Nothing more has been heard or seen oil
them, vet they can rest assured that the
passenger trains over that road are. now
nothing less than travelling arsenal and
when they make another attempt they Will
meet with warm reception.

Who is Mrs. WinsIow?

As this question is frequently asked we
will simply say that she is lady who, for
upward Of forty years, has untiringly de-
voted her time and talent as, female
physician and nurse, principally, among
children. She has especially studied the
constitution and wants Of this numerous
class, and, as result of this effort, and
practical knowledge, obtained in lifetime
spent as a nurse and physician, she has
compounded a Soothing Syrup for children
teething. IL operates like magic-givlng
rest and health, and is moreover, sure to
regulate the bowels. In consequence OF
this article, Mrs. Winslow is becoming
world-renowned as benefactor of her race;
children certainly do rise up and bless her;
especially is this the case in this city. Vast
quantities of the Soothing Syrup are daily
sold and used here. We think Mrs. Wins
low has immortalized her name by this in
valuable article and we sincerely believe
thousands of children have been saved from
an early grave by its timely use, and the mil
lions yet unborn will share its benefits and
unite in calling her blessed. No another ha
discharged her duty to her, suffering little
one, in our opinion, until she has given it
the benefit of Mrs Winslow's Soothing
Syrup. Try it, mothers-try it now

SINGULAR DEATH OF A BABY.
A Cat Sucks its Breath Away and Shows
Fight When Driven off,

A colored man named Samuel Jasper,
standing on the platform of the Union de-
pot yesterday morning, waiting for the
south-bound Texas Central tram, with q
child's coffin under his arm, was approached
by HERALD reporter, who inquired if he
had lost some member of his family He
said that he had, and the peculiar manner
of the taking-off of his infant son is OF such
a peculiar nature that the reporter talked
at length with him and cleaned the partlc-
ulars as given below. He and his. wife
have, for the past few weeks, been lying
below Miller's Ferry, on the Texas Cen
trail road, and part OF the
time he has been working
on a gravel train on that road. They had
an infant son about month old, and
Thursday noon when his wife, who, had
gone out of the cabin, returned, she found
a big black cat they had sitting on the
baby's breast with its nose down to its lace
She grabbed the cat, which showed fight
and hurled it out the window, throwing IL

She then picked up the baby ana, 10 her
horror. discovered that it was not breath

where her husband was chopping
wood and told him of the cat. He
took the babe, examined it, and
found that life was extinct. The cat, he
saws, had sucked the child's breath away
He said that he had always been told that
thew could do it. for he had repeatedly
driven it away from the child. and would
have Killed it long ago but for his wife,
who made pet of it. His wife says that
she was not out of the cabin ten minutes,
and that when she left the baby was awake
and in good health. He says that he can
not account for its sudden death in any
other way than that the cat had sucked It's
breath away. When they returned the cat
was up on the bed looking for the baby,
and showed fight when they entered, but
he succeeded in dispatching the animal.
He had come to the city to get a coffin
made for it, and was waiting for the south
bound train to return home and bury the
