A Snash-Up.

One of Mr.. D. w. Viewers horses
ran away with buggy about one
o'clock yesterday, almost utterly de-
molishing the vehicle. Fortunately
none was hurt, as Mr.. Weeks. who
had been driving, had hitched the
horse while he attended to some bus
mess at the Central depot. A passing
engine frightened the horse and
caused him to break loose.

Austin FirebOys Having Fun.

The following, taken from the
Waco Examiner, will be read with
interest and mirth by the host of
friends of the fireman's delegation
Austin sent to Waco:
A crowd of delegates who had
been spending Tuesday evening at
DeErancis garden, returning about
II o'clock, found street-car standing
on the track contiguous to the park
street, but minus a driver. They
took possession of the car, appointed
driver, and started up town, on the
way appointing a conductor. who
faithfully collected five cent fare
from each man, and faithfully depos-
ing the nickels in the proper
box. The boys enjoyed the
frolic highly, but according to
yesterday morning when fol midable
looking document was served on
some of the night before passengers.
The legal papers set out that the par
ties who had taken forcible possession
of the street car the night before had
been spotted and their names were
known, and that if they would save
themselves trouble they should pro-
coed at once to the Office of the presi-
dent and settle the matter. The legal
notice was signed, Ed Rotan, presi-
dent, and B. F. Richly, secretary.
CONSERVATION reigned among the re-
vellers, and committee was appoint
ed to wait on Mr.. Rotan and settle
matters, and repairing to his Office on
Jackson street, introduced them
selves and proceeded to explain. 1t
was only when Mr.. Rotan, puzzled,
astonished and totally non-plussed,
stopped them to ask what in the name
of San Jacinto they were talking
about, that they began to see that
theylhad been made the victims of a
big hoax by some one whohad gotten
mp the awful summons to appear be-
fore the president of the railway COM
pany. 1t is said the Austin dele
cation were hunting for the wag who
got up that paper all day yesterday"
But the following, from the same
paper, shows where the Austin boys
spend their Sabbaths, as it is not prob
able our pious friend George Smith
was alone:
"Mr. Geo. Smith, the loss of whose
pocketbook, containing a sum of
money, was mentioned in Wednesday
mornings paper, recovered it yester-
day, it having been found under a
pew in church, where he had been
attending service. It might have
been lost at much worse places"

INSTITUTION FOR THE BLIND,
AUSTIN, May 10, 1883.
Drs. Tobin:
Your "Hepatozone" as gentle
purgative has no equal. 1t moves
the bowels without making the pa
tient feel sick, weak or languid. 1t
is often the case that we feel a little
bilious, have some headache perhaps,
and are feeling unwell generally, and
only need an easy purgative to relieve
us; your "HepatoZone" is the medi-
cine for that condition. l relieved a
case of dysentery with it in a very
short time. We use it largely in this
institution. FRANK RA.NEY,

ter and spring, from dull, heavy
headache, severe pain in the eyes

ranged and torpid state of my liver.

An open letter from his honor

An open letter from his honor
Judge McAdoo:
BRENNAN, Tex. March II, '83.
Messrs. Walker & Bell:
| bear cheerful testimony to the
great value of DR.. Tobin's "Hepato-
zone" In the spring of 1881, after
several months of low health, l was
completely Frustrated by what ulti-
mately eliminated IN the breaking of
a large abscess of the -discharg-
ing through the lungs and throat, in
the spring of 1882. For more than
a year, under the most skillful
and constant medical treatment,
l was complete invalid, with
general dropsy, and terrible
heart troubles, in addition to the dis
ease of the liver. After the abscess
of the liver discharged and healed,
and the other distressing attendant
maladies disappeared, the crippled
condition of the liver has been such
that have been compelled frequent
ly to take medicines to stimulate its
action and regulate its secretions.
About month ago L was induced to
try the Hepatozone, and 1 have found
it the very remedy needed. 1t acts
upon the liver, and regulates its secre-
tions without any unpleasant effects;
no nausea, no gripping, no interference
with diet or digestion, and is tonic in
effects. believe it to be most val
liable remedy. J. D. MCADoo.

THE MASSACHUSETTS, CAMPAIGN.

Only few days remain before the
last batch Of important elections OF The
year. Ia Massachusetts,, rs the decisive
moment approaches the canvass grows hot
Ter and hotter, and it is safe to say that in
intensity ard spirit it exceeds anything
known in the Old Bay State within the mem.
DRY OF the present generation. II brson
and Butler are making speeches every day,
and often two or three epecca day, aud each
| follow. the other up with the utmost sharp
ness. The personality q the issue is more
sharply defined each W, ck and il is doubtful
whether State election was ever made To
turn so purtly.upon single mans character
aid record. Some of the Democrats have
been raking Mr.. RUbinson's record
aud genealogy with fine-too,h comb in the
effort to find something to bis discredi,, but
their search has not been rewarded very lib
orally. The only thing they discovered of
which they could make the slightest Use was
that years ago an uncle Of iir. Robuson's
was for some time an inmate Of the LeYng
ton almshouse but the fact appears to be
that the uncle was a crazy oh man who
could be better CARD for at the alnishuuse
than elsewhere and whose brolher (wbu fin
ally buried him, on his DEATH dill not lject
10 i; when he voluntarily went t. the
almshouse. If there was anything wrong
about tho matter (Which does not APP
pear TO be the case) the brother would pre-
sumably be the person who should be blamed,
and we fail 10 see why Mr. RSbinson's char
ac.er should suffer. But the Democrats are
working the thing for all 1t is worth, and a
great deal more, and actually seem 10 ihiuk
they have great handle against Mr.. Robin
son. The fact is, MIR. Robinson's character
is 80 high aud record SO unhlcmished, that
the Democrats have to get down to mighty
small business to bring up anything against
him.
There i, detection against Butler on the
part OF number of the ''silvtr top" Dcmoc-
racy-the old fellows who iran" the party
for years before Butler captured it; but
probably their revolt will not cost Butler
many votes. They are for the most part
narrow, hide bound old partisans, who think
the world hasn't changed particle for twen-
ty years. But their action has some sicnf.
lcance a, indie .tiug the position of many Of
the more respectable men among the Demo-
cratic pariy'-mcn who will not sign formal
protest, but whs will either vote against
Butler or not vote At all. 1t is difficult, indeed,
to see how any seli-respeciing man, whether he
calls himself Democrat or Republican can
vote Tor Butler, this year ; and we have faith
to believe that the classindcated will be strong
enough TO retire him TO private life. This
result 10 pointed to by the Republican can.
gass, which shows u handsome majority for
Robinson, and the Republican campaign is |
40 active, aggressive and winning one.
