He Is the Man,

a man came rushing into the sane
tom of the city editor last night, red
in the face and covered with perspi-
ration, saying: I'm the man. Yes
sir. I'm the eloper, and l want the
public to know That I'm the fellow
$50 you are the man who took the
young miss off, are you, and were
caught by her mamma before you had
tiGue to accomplish you heartless pur-
pose?" inquired the editor.
Now, there is where you are off.
1t was no little girl at all, but
she is old enough to know what she
wants, and she wanted me-"
GLOW old was she?" suggested the
editor.
"Well, it is not polite to ask lady
her age, but she has false teeth and
wig"
False teeth and a wig?" said the
editor in establishment.
Yes, sir, she has; I've had them
both in my hand. There is no mistake
about it,"
"Well, she is no kitten, is she?" said
the scribe.
81 should say not; but look ahere
Did you think she was caught by her
ma before we finished up the jobs"
1--WE were SO informed" said the
editor.
"Well, you are left there; for we
got married that very night"
WHAT"
"It's fact, sir"
"YOu cannot be the man."
"Y es l am, sir"
"Whatl who eloped the other
night 2"
"The other night? Lord bless you
no, it was fifty-two years ago" And
he turned and walked out of the sane
tum, whistling 1.-The Girl l Left Be
hind Me-"
When he got to the door he turned
about and said: Cali the young men
in the city with sweethearts think
you meant them, and so l thought L
would just drop in and let 'em know
it was me. Good night, sir"

From One OF Austin's Leading Ply
sicians.

Dr. TObm:
Dear Sir-You will remember that
some time ago | remarked to you that
l suffered from an uneasy, painful
feeling in my right side, caused by a
congested condition of the liver,
which prevented me from riding on
horseback and engaging in violent
exercise Of any kind. You then told
me that you had suffered from a smi-
lar affection of the liver, and had
cured yourself by using certain medi-
cinal herbs which you had discovered
and urged me to try them. / did so
and am now well. These medicinal
herbs in conjunction with salines you
have since presented to the public
under the name of ''Tobin's Hepato-
zone" In doing so you have con-
ferred great boon on people living
in hot, semi-tropical climate like
ours, where diseases of the liver are
so prevalent. 1t is the daily expe-
rience of every physician to find peo-
pie running their constitutions by the
excessive use of strong mercu-
rial purgatives. A still larger
number constantly use so-called "liver
regulators" mostly composed of
aloes and other drastic purgatives,
which only tend to produce piles and
other troublesome affections of the
lower bowels. To all such sufferers
your medicine will be an invaluable
aid in restoring them to health again,
and l feel assured that it only re-
quires to be known to be appreciated,
and that people will cease destroying
their constitutions by the reckless and
dangerous abuse of mercurials now
in vogue. Hepatazone contains no
hurtful drug, and yet it is signally eff
ficient rs liver medicine. l may re-
mark just here that l am not violat-
ing medical ethics in truthfully giving
you my opinion of medicine which
L have used myself with benefit, the
formula Of which you did not hesi-
tate to show to me. Above all, it af-
fords me greatIpleasure to know that
you have placed your medicine Conn
posed only of costly drugs within
the reach Of the poorest man or wo-
man.

DEPARTMENT NOTES.
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.

y
The governor is in frequent receipt
of letters from parties complaining
about the cutting of their fences, and
asking for the assistance of the rang
ers to prevent depredations. He says
it would be about as easy for the five
policemen of Austin to protect every
citizen here as for the rangers to
watch every mans fence in the coun-
try. lie sent the adjutant general to
Hopkins county some time ago to in
quire into the facts of complaints
from that quarter. and it was found
that one large stockman had fenced
in five thousand acres for private pas
turagc, and after using the free pas
turage outside turned his cattle
inside his own enclosure. This
was the cause of the complaint.
The governor has letter from Mr.
Hall, one of the board investigating
land frauds, in which the writer states
that he has two more counties to eX-
anime, and will soon be ready to re-
port to a meeting of the board in
Austin.
The governor yesterday pardoned
Adolphus Rivas, convicted in Bexar
county of theft of cattle and sentenced
to two years Imprisonment. The
term having expired, the pardon is
simply to restore him to the rights of
citizenship.

Law and Land,

1T is not often that we are called
upon to record Il case like the one
about which we write now. 1t some
times happens that two lawyers meet
in sanguinary conflict, and it happens,
too, that a land agent and lawyer
sometimes indulge in the manly art.
Well, there was something of that
kind in che city yesterday. Only a
few friends were invited to the scene
of battle. Both men were in good
fighting condition and entered
the ring with confidence. The bets
were about equal, and so were the
takers. Time was called at $50, and
the sport began. The lawyer made a
remark that greatly aggravated the
land man, and the land man said few
words to the lawyer that were not
pleasant. Then the lawyer took a
small iron weight and struck foul
blow, hitting the land man on the
head and cutting it badly. Thereupon
the land man clinched the lawyer and
soon got his head in chancery, when
outside parties interfered and the fight
was off. There was but one round
fought, but, considering the fame of
the parties engaged and the science
displayed, it was very good for an au-
tllnQ performance

ADVICE TO TIE IRISH.

DUBLIN, September 3.-At a mass

been deprived of their homes within
the quarter ending the 1st Of July.
Davit contended that the question of
complete abolition of landlordism
must be kept before the people. The
land act, if not failure at the pres
ent time, is rapidly becoming SO. Not
one-sixth of the tenant farmers have
yet succeeded in having their rents
fixed. The people should be resolute
and calm, and not loose self-control.
