We took in Walla Walla as we'll as We
could in the few hours we were there,
and our impression was that business there
is not generally as good as it was when
We were there last year. The s.agnation
in the movement of grain, no doubt, is
one of the causes. The amount of wheat
all along the line of the road from Riparia
to Walla Walla is immense and that
which is to come over the narrow guaye
from the upper dry creek they tell us is
very large. We can see no means of re-
moving all the grain of the Walla Walla

thus our producers along Snake river

wheat to market till next year, il they
have to play second fiddle to these lower

Killed His Daughter.

A good Imany will remember Levi
Weeks, who, several years ago, was
connected for a brief period with a
variety theatre in this city. 1t appears
he went from here north and finally
brought up in Aberdeen, d. T., where
an exchange says the following oc-
Cured: Several weeks agoone Levi
Weeks accompanied by his wife and
daughter Kittie, an interesting lady Is
years of age. Weeks sought and OBJ
tanned employment for himself, wife
and daughter at the Hotel Artesian.
Everything went well until recently,
when by frequent DRINKS and mat
tention to business Weeks was dis
charged, since which time he has fire.
quently endeayored to persuade
his wife and daughter to
leave the hotel. His re-
quests, however, were unavailing in
consequence of his having no home
for them, and making no provision
for their support. At 8 o'clock Satur-
day evening he called and requested
permission to see his daughter. Upon
the young lady appearing brief, low
conversation ensued, when Weeks
drew revolver, borrowed for the oc-
casion, and shot her, the ball passing
through the left arm and breast,
lodging in the left lung. The unfor-
tunate girl was taken toher room and
doctor summoned at once, who thus
far has been unable to find the bullet,
and pronounces her condition very
critical. The would-be murderer was
arrested Immediately. 1t is surmised
that Judge Lynch will hold a special
court in this county should the result
prove fatal. Weeks is said to have
been a hard drinker when in the city.

AM Editor in AUSTIN.

Mr.. J. c. Hart, editor of the "Twc
Laredos," visited Austin last week
and this is what he says:
We left Alamo City at 7:45 a. m. for
Austin, and before we had gone very
far our engine weakened and we were
detained at every station from Is to
80 minutes, arriving very late though
in time for bountiful dinner at the
Raymond House, the palatial hotel of
our Capital City.
Then by invitation of our old time
friend, Joe Griffith, we took drive
with him around the city. taking in
all the important places, found every
proving, new buildings and all kinds
OF Improvements going up in every
nook and corner.
The fair was not the success it
should have been, or would have been
if the weather had been more favora-
BILE.
We next visited the treasury office
where we met the venerable old Gov
Lubbock and his cashier, William B.
Workman, both looking hale and
hearty, and buSily engaged with their
official matters; two better and more
efficient officers in their respective
places could not be found in this
broad state, and the people of Texas
may rest assured that their finances
are in safe hands. We called to see
Gen. King, but found him absent, at
tending the Hopkins county fair. at
night we attended Capt. MillettS opera
house. The play for that evening was
sour Bachelors" by the Lambert s.
Richardson Dramatic company. The
attendance was very large and the
audience well pleased; in fact, the
Lambert Richardson is enc of the
best companies travelling. They have
made a grand hit everywhere they
have played this season.

George EIiot's Grave.
Letter to the Italian Times. /


1t is not true, as alleged in an
American girls note to the London
Times, that George Eliot's grave is
unknown at the cemetery where she
lies buried and is unmarked. In a
little corner of Highgate cemetery,
one of the most picturesque spots of
suburban London, the grave and the
monument of George Eliot can be
seen. Shortly before her death George
Eliot made tour through the middle
counties of England, and on one occa-
sion passed through one of those
charmingly quaint and severely silent
village church yards, where time alone
marks life and death so quietly and
effectively. There, a simple flagstone
bore the suggestive and mysteriously
single Inscription, "The Unknown"
This attracted the authoress. Making
inquiries she learned this was the spot
where cultured and disappointed
woman lay at rest after living the
life Of an unmarried wife," and be-
ing deserted by that very humanity"
George Eliot had so much praised in
seductive chapters. Living out the
remnant of this worldly existence in
retired corner Of a village, and I'M
known and uncared for, this fair and
frail one breathed last in tiny room,
leaving a written request that she
should be buried in the neighboring
churchyard, and that her only epitapR
should be "The Unknown A small
sum of money was found to defray
the funeral expense, and put up the
stone which gave George Eliot" a
serious view of life at home and
abroad over and above "the humani-
ties"

THE SOUTHERN STATES.

Twenty-eight parishes of Louisiana
were inundated by the mississippi
overflow last year, and the damage is
reckoned at 100000.
Louisiana, which expected to make
100000 hogsheads of sugar this sea-
son, now looks for about half that
yield.
A Maryland paper asserts that the
money paid out for fertilizers in Hart
ford county, that state, this year,
would have bought all the land in the
county twenty years ago.
A unique feature appearing on the
bill of fare used at banquet in Rich
mond, Va, on the 10Th, was the print
ing of the menu in red letters on the
back Of a confederate state $40 bill.
Natchez Democrat: The raising of
hogs in this section is becoming so
much of a lost art that some Of our
Natchez butchers have to send all the
way to st. Louis for these animals to
slaughter for the market. We thought
it was bad enough to send to the
West for picked pork and smoked
meat, but when we do the same for
fresh pork we begin to despair for
the future of the country.

A BURGLARS Burial.

A special to the st. Louis Republi-
can from New York, October Is, says:
The body of John Walsh, the burglar,
who was killed in Shang Diapers
saloon just after he had killed Burg
lar John Draper, lay this evening in
his mothers simple home, which is on
the first floor Of tenement house on
the south side of East Tenth street,
between Avenue 3 and G. A stream
of men and women climbed up the
narrow stairs and went into the small
parlor where the body lay. A brass
candelabrum on which burned seven
wax tapers lighted the room. The
men lifted their hats as they entered,
gaZed for a moment at WalSh'S face
and then went back to the street.
Among the first to come were Billy
Vosburgh, who was drinking with
Walsh when the first of the fatal
shots were fired, and "Gillie the
Blue" who stepped over Irving's
body as he ran from the saloon. Then
came Sheedy Mike, Abe Coakley
Red Leary. Shang Draper,
Billy Train, Johnny Shea, Johnny
Farrell, Billy Barry and George Allen,
all associates of Walsh. Carriages ar
rived in great numbers, and both
sides of the street soon became i'm
passable. Nearly 1000 persons had
come to see the last of the burglar,
highman and politician. Four fashion
ably dressed men with kid gloves and
canes pushed their way through the
crowd and went into the house. They
were Boston cracksmen, friends of
Porter, who had come to look at the
DnrfaT. &c Of lyil1in
Following upon their heels were
Billy Mosier, Mat Hynes and Jack
Adams, who had come from Philadel-
phia to attend the funeral. Then
came cracksmen from Western cities.
There was also a hest of politicians;
among them Thomas Hershal, limo
thy Corners, Edward Bennett, Joseph
O'Brien, John and James McManuS
and Edward Clarkson.
Thirty carriages followed the hearse
! to Calvary cemetery. The coffin was
carried into the mortuary chapel and
| set on the bier in front of the altar
railing. A white-robed priest chanted
mass and sprinkled the coffin with
holy water. "The st. Joseph's Home
for the Aged" the priest said at the
conclusion of the mass sis in need of
funds. 1t is a worthy institution.
Contributions may be placed in the
box at the door," Abe Coakley threw
handful of silver into the box and
others followed suit. Then the burg
lars coffin was carried out into the
cemetery, where grave had been dug.
Dusk had begun to creep along the
sky and the sun shone from
the west through riffs of purplish
clouds. A fringe of maple trees with
almost leafess branches cast skeleton
shadows on the graves. The coffin
was lowered. Walsh's relatives wept
loud as the grave was filled. Then the
mound was made, and on it were set
floral anchor, pillow, broken col
umn and cross worked in bitter
sweet with "My son." Brother" and
"At rest" The grave diggers moved
off and the relatives knelt about the
grave. The dead mans professional
friends withdrew to distance of fifty
feet from the family and knelt with
uncovered heads until the family
arose.
