A SHOT FOR A STAB.
Buck watkins Slabs Charles Wilson, Who
in Turn Shoots BIN Both Men Badly

Buck watkins Slabs Charles Wilson, who
in Turn Shoots him Both Men Badly
Wounded.
Sunday night, about 10 O'Clock, Buck
Watkins and Charles Williams, both col
cred, had bloody encounter in East Dali
les, near the Texas Central track, Just north
of Swiss avenue, in which the former
stabbed the latter, who in turn shot him.
Both of them are seriously wounded. Wad-
kins accused Wilson of being too
intimate with his (Wadkins) wife, and
on meeting they fought. Wilson
received severe cut, extending from his
left shoulder down some SIX inches, the
knife penetrating to the bone, and Wad-
kins was shot with a thirty-two calibre PTS
toll Just below the right nipple. Officers
Tarbert and Keehan hurried TO the scene
on hearing the shot, and found the two
wounded men graphing with each other,
and pounding one another with their fists
with all the strength they had left.
They were taken charge Of by the officers,
who started with them to the station,
but on the way both of them tainted from
loss of mood and were taken to the. resi-
idence OF DR.. r. w. Allen, No. 125 Main
street, who dressed their wounds, which
proved to be of such serious nature that
City Marshal Arnold procured a hack and
had them sent to their respective homes
where they received further medical atten-
ton. At last accounts they were some bet
ter, especially Wilson.

Rebate on Tobacco Tax,

The law looking to the reduction of tax
on tobacco, and allowing rebate on the
tax paid on the stock on hand, went into
effect YESTERDAY and the dealers in the
weed were busy taking an inventory Of
what they had on hand. Some of them
will get considerable rebate. The tax has
been reduced SO per thousand on cigars,
cents per pound on manufactured tobacco,
and to one-half the original tax on cigar
cites, while that on snuff is greatly re-
duced.
The amount of rebate claims proven up
to May LIST, filed with Deputy-Collector
Cochran, amounted to $2,666.02. The time
is extended until the Both of June, and
parties can file their claims as sworn to by
disinterested parties, who take the inven-
tory in his Office, at the Federal court
building.

THE URsULINE CONVENT BLESSED.

Great Interest and Immense Attendance
The Bishops Sermon-Sketch of the Grand
Structures!
The new Catholic convent was blessed
and received its new baptismal name of St.
Ursuline on Sunday eyenisg last in the
presence of nearly one thousand of our
citizens who came from every quarter of
the city in carriage, coupe and on the
prancing steed" Right Rev. Bishop Gallaghv
er presided over the holy exercises and deli.
cred the sermon of blessing. Very Rev
Father Robot, project apostolic, and Abbot
of the Indian territory, Rev. Father @. Nor
timer, of Terrell, Rev. Father Quinon, of
st. Patrick's church of this city, who was
master OF ceremonies with Rev. Father AL
ermand j. Mortimer, also OF Dallas, were
present at the interesting occasion. After
PRAYER to the Holy Ghost and the sprink-
ling of holy water in all the differ
ent apartments, the blessing of the i'm
blem of Christianity that hung from the
wall, the blessing and burning of incense,
the bishop delivered most interesting ad
dress, which the reporter hopes TO give the
readers of the HERALD on some future
occasion. The building is of Gothic archi-
lecture, so by 40 feet in the main portion
and % by los feet in the two wings. 1t is
built of the finest brick at a cost of $50, 600,
with lovely country being rapidly built
up around it. Its halls and different de-
partments are spacious and artistically de-
signed; its tower grand and Gothic. Alto
cether st. Ursuline is a convent worthy OF
the church, having lis 100000 of commun l.
cants, $1,000 of whom are in Texas.

A SPLENDID EDIFICE.
A Monument to the skill of its Builds

A Monument to the skill of its Builder.
The new Catholic convent which was con-
secrated Sunday. is one Of the finest build
ings in the state, and stands monument
to the superior workmanship of Mr.. John
A. Johnson who superintendent and as
sisted in person in the erection OF the build
ing, which contributes beauty of architect
ure and substantially. As contractor
and builder, he has no superior, and very
few equals. The structure is COMPOSED OF
the very best brick and timber, which is put
together in manner that marks
it as the work of sk illed hands. The build
ing, and especially the stairways, were
thoroughly tested Sunday by the large
crowd that filled the edifice, and was tried
to capacity it will never be tried again.
The finish Of the building throughout is ar
tistic and solid, as well as the work cores
bonding, in such way that one can see at
a glance that a high order of taste
accompanied its construction. The
structure sits on massive foundation and
underneath is spacious basement. Cut up
into apartments which are neatly finished
on the first and second floors are the rooms
for the various departments of the school,
and in front of each floor extending the en-
tire length of the building are balconies
handsomely finished. On the second bal
cony is a figure Of the blessed virgin. A
beautiful tower surmounts the whole, set
ting it off in grand style. The building
will remain for ages monument 10 the AZ
tainments of Mr.. johnson as builder.

Crop Report.

Captain w. w. Ross, in his crop report
10 the department of agriculture, at Wash.
ington, for Dallas county, says: Wheat is
late, but looks well; rye and barley hardly
an average, but little Of the former sown;
native hay. our only spring pasture, is
looking well; corn all planted and good
stands. Cotton not all planted, some up;
the stands will be good, having had rains
recently; will be less planted, owing TO the
low prices at this time and scarcity Of labor,
particularly at picking time. Planters are
behind with spring blowing. They would
have sown more oats had the early part OF
spring been more favorable. The spring
planting Of all crops is about the same
as last year. Moving lands are native prai-
RE grasses. There will be large crop OF
millet sown this season. No crops are used
for ensilage in this country; farmers have
never given this subject any thought or at
tention. Our fail frost is usually late; win
tiers short and comparatively mild. Stock
requires but little If any feeding during the
winter. Our native prairie grasses will cure
standing and affords fine average pastur-
sge during the winter months. Our seasons
and planting this year are about twenty
DAYS late, notwithstanding our prospects
are good. Recent rains have given new life,
and planters are cheerful and hopeful.

Attention is called to the advertisement
of the Westinghouse Machinery company,
OF Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. AS is well
known, they are the owners and the manu-
facturers of the celebrated Westinghouse
air-brake, which is used on all passenger
trains on all railroads. Their works, cap
ital and advantages cannot be surpassed by
any concern in the United States. They
are making as one of their, specialties the
Westinghouse engine, which is one of the
best engines made. The company has
opened branch house at No. 401 Elm
street, in charge of Mr.. John G. Hunter, an
old and experienced engine-man, and the
trade of Texas would do well to send for
their illustrated catalogue.

TIL. Law of Cure Under the Compound. OK
ygen Treatment.

The objection which is frequently urged
against Compound Oxygen by persons who
have not made themselves acquainted with
the natural and scientific laws governing
its action, is that the same agent admins
tered is for all diseases-ior neuralgia or
catarrh, for consumption or rheumatism,
for heart disease or bronchitis. That 1t is
offered as a universal specific, In his trea-
tise on Compound Oxygen, DR.. q. K. star
KEY has fully explained the nature and &C
ton of this treatment, and shown that 1t
is not specific 10 any disease or class OF
diseases, but that it acts directly upon
the nervous system and vital organs,
and thence universally in the whole
body. 1t gives new force and more Wig
orous action in all the life centres, thus re,
storing to nature the dominant power and
healthy action which had been lost: This
being the case, no matter what the disease,
or where located, it must be gradually
ameliorated, and, if the central healthy &C
ton can be maintained, finally cured.
Every Intelligent and unprelu-
diced person will at once see
that il the law of action which is
claimed for Compound Oxygen be the true
one, its operation must be universal, and
not local or specific; and that all forms OF
disease may be reached by this agent. This
treatise will be sent free to all who desire to
receive. Starkey & Palen, 11O9 and I'LL
