WACO.
Especial to The Statesman i


WACO, August g. The first
through train from Cairo, ILL.,, to this
city, over the Texas and st. Louis
railroad, arrived at 1890 this morn
ing. The entire outfit was new, the
engine being named A. L. Horner, in
honor of the general superintendent
of the road.
Sixteen panels of barbed wire
fence and many posts were torn up on
Bart and Luke Moore's rancho, on the
Tehuacana river, about nine miles
from this city, by parties styling
themselves "the OWLS" A notice was
placarded on their gate to the effect
that if they persisted in fencing in
that pasture, which contained Jones'
track, the only water on the entire
range, and which did not contain
more grass than was needed by the
stock already there, the owls would
catch them. The adjoining pastul es
Of Gross e Lehman, Sangher & Blank
and Putnam were burned off. it is
presumed by the same parties.
j. NJ. Walker, of Salado, while in
this city on bridal tour, lost his
pocketbook containing $215. He
claims to have been robbed.
The runaway float to-day did con-
siderable damage. The float was
wrecked, one horse seriously injured
and another run over and badly hurt.
Waco is out of lime and contractors
are delayed in consequence thereof,
owing to the difficulty in getting
transportation from Austin.

But good deal of-selling has been
pressed ou-this side by persons lVllo/
fear that some attention may d. called
to our position in Egypt in the Brit
ish parliament. The question asked
in the commons last night as to the
health of troops in Egypt is thought
to be ominous of an agitation for
their withdrawal to Malta or some
convenient spot; but it is quite GER
tain that the withdrawal of British
troops, on whatever ground, would
cause a loss of confidence in Egypt
and Egyptian securities. The partic- 4
ular consideration. we need not say.
is not likely to effect the minds of the
government in deciding their course.
The writer says: "The Stock Ex-

Fear of the Dentist.

Ten thousand dentists, whose thriv-
ing business attests the badness OF
American teeth, meet with amusing
adventures when they encounter those
who are suffering from what Burns
calls the "grim, misunderstanding CHIEF
that makes mankind aft dance a
reel" A Chicago reporter describes
some of these experiences as they
were reported to him by several den
fists of that city:
"We encounter more that is ridicu-
lons in the extraction of teeth than in
any other branch of the profession -
said dentist.
"Why. have had great strong men
come into my office with the intention
of having tooth extracted, and at
the sight of the instruments actually
turn and run-yes, run as if The angel
of death had suddenly appeared before
them.
ION the other hand, l have seen
frail-looking women COME in, and
without a word or look that would
indicate any timidity, take seat and
undergo the operation with scarcely a
sign of fear.
"Men and women of large stature,
as general rule. make more fuss than
smaller men and women, and women
exhibit less fear than men.
"Some very amusing incidents oc-
cur during the practice of a dentist.
For instance, not long since promi-
nent lawyer being greatly annoyed by
an aching tooth. decided to have it
out; so mastering up courage, he
went to well known dentist and told
him he required his services.
"The lawyer took the chair, and the
dentist got everything in readiness,
when the lawyer spoke up said: 4 am
going to faint and he did.
Nevertheless the tooth was ex<
tracted, and the loss of blood .bsfng-
ing him to consciousness--siie dentist
asked him il it was common thing
for him to faint, and receiving an
affirmative answer, said that the fact
of his fainting had removed the ne
cessity of his administering gas"

STATE NEWS REPERTORY.
Spirit Of Our Texas Exchanges.

THE STATESMAN publishes list of
the new buildings now being erected
in Austin, and what they will cost.
The total cost is $4,880,OO0. But the
new capital is set down at 81 ,0OO,O 900,
and the university and other state
buildings at $23o,000. Churches and
school buildings come in for $271 600
more, leaving about $379,Q0Q which
will be subject to taxation. The ex-
hibit is quite creditable to Austin
and the disbursement of so much
money there will be bonanza for the
people-Waco Examiner.
Waco, being alluded to so often on
authority of the signal service tele-
grams as "the hottest place in the
country" the Examiner complains of
the signal officers in this style {:
at. is drawing it mildly when
we say that these reports Gas to
Waco) are a snare and delusion.
They eclipse q packed jury or the
seven-to-eight commission. All the
conditions are against a lower tenn
perature. The mercury couldn't get
any lower to save its life. The ther-
moneter is located where the noon
day sun can get in his best work, and
he does it. The result is the torrid
reports from Waco.
The Houston Post, discussing the
discrimination which the board of re-
gents, at the instance of the faculty,
It is stated, have made as to the ages
of male and female matriculants in
the state university, says; ITO give
The girls justice, then, instead of ham
dicapping them with an additional
wear. the rule should be reversed, if
there be any departure from coe-
quality of age. AT sixteen the girl is
far more of a woman than the boy of
seventeen is of q man. But be this
as it may, there is 20 good
reason to discriminate against
young women by demanding OF
them a superior age 60 the
young men as university students. 1t
is an injustice practically, for there
are but few girls who viii care to re,
main throughout full four years
course, beginning at the age OF seven
teen. Young ladies imagine the ma
ture age of tWenty-one "awfully old,
and the tint of the blue stocking viii
be unnecessarily impaired to the uni
versity as seen through feminine
glasses.

FROM CYPRESS MILLS.

CYPRESS MILLS, Blanco Co, Aug, 4.
To the Editor of The Statesman:
All crops except cotton are made,
and Notwithstanding the drought as
much money per acre will be realized
by the farmer as in good year. Oats
that were considered hardly worth
cutting have sold readily at forty-tive
cents per dozen, paying twenty dollars
per acre. Corn, which will make
twenty bushels per acre, is worth one
dollar. There is a market here for
everything raised except cotton,
freighters and stock men being the
customers. The gin, grist and saw
mill at Cypress Creek has been sold hy
Mr.. VIM. Fox to MesSrs. Nospelt u
Kellersberger, who will put in ma
chinery adapted to the manufacture of
first class article of flour, besides i'm
proving the mill in other particulars.
A larger acreage of wheat will proba-
bly, be put in hereafter.
Cypress Mills has market once a week
now. Beef brings ten cents per pound
last July good beef brought six cents
and was slow sale at that. The
"bear" movements. inaugurated by
buyers has not affected the market
here much. Those who are able will
hold their yearlings rather than sell
them at panic prices. :.
While news comes from all
over the state of high
range of the thermometer, we are en-
joying breezes that are almost chilling
in the morning and really refreshing
during the entire day, though the sun
does seem to be rather warmer than
usual. 1t is mistake, however, for
parties to come to the mountains eX-
pecting to find game and fish during
the extremely hot weather When it
gets cooler they will meet with better
success.
Mr.. Geo. Wallace, living nea Tur-
ner's crossing of the Perdinales, was
bitten by spider few days since and
for several days his recovery was
doubtful. His spasmS were so violent
that it required four men to hold him,
and three pints of whisky poured into
him after quieted had no effect either
for good or harm. 1t is thought now
that he will get well.
The woods are full of grape gather
ing parties just now, and the sugar
market is very active. There are sew
eral Germans living in this neighbor-
hood. and they all make more or less
wine every year.
Grass is very dry and gardens burnt
up, the rain on the 9Th of July being
the only one for several months.
The mast this year is finer than
known for years, and hogs are scarcer
