Spring opens up slowly with here and
there stray bud peeping out as if weary
of the long, long winter. 1t hath been said
that an early Easter Is sure sign of an
early spring; but the present one is an ex-
ception, for this is the latest spring season
we have had during twenty years past; and
as write little has been done for the next
crop by the farmers. Corn planting Is at
least one month behind, and the ground in
a wretcheu condition to receive the seed
Summing up the whole the present out
look presents gloomy picture. The ram.
fall still continues with unabatng energy,
while the average planter catches respite
between showers in which to scatter few
seeds within the muck and mud of his once
arabic plantation.
The little town Of Hubbard, q station on
the ST. l.. & n. w. Il. r., thirty miles dis
tant from Waco, the other day, was thrown
into intense excitement by one of the most
dastardly crimes ever perpetrated ia Cen
trail Texas.
One Narnell visited the house OF a Mr.
Land, while dance was in progress at the
latter place. After s. little lie succeeded in
decoying one of Mr.. Lands daughters
a way from the house, upon whom he at
tempted to commit his helllsh design but
was frustrated in his attempt by the timely
appearance of her father and older sister,
Their presence seems to have enraged him
so as from all accounts there had been no
previous grudge, that he shot Land dead in
his tracks and then made good his escape,
| The citizens OF both this and Hill county
have become so InCensed at the terrible
tragedy that Judge Lynch will hold spe-
cial term of court should the foul demon
be caught any time soon. The affair has
called forth the sympathy of the press
throughout the state for his unfortunate
victim. While nothing definite of his
whereabouts is known, it is the popular
thought of everyone that detectives are
shadowing hun.
The estimate Of last years cotton crop it
is said will foot up over one million bales
for this state and as IA result the staple is
worth five to SIX cents per pound, which IS
poor encouragement for the planter on the
incoming crop.

tanned a divorce from him On Sunday
morning he drove up to the wiie's door
No. 300 Hudson Avenue, and demanded to
be let in TO see the children. The woman
said the last time he was there he had been
noisy and violent and refused To admi,
him. Thereupon lie drew revolver and
shot her. Then passing into the ack yard
he placed the pistol to his own head and
fired, scattering his brains about the yard
The man was killed instantly and the wo-
man died few hours afterwards.

union men joined in the strike, and were

union on Friday evening and were fired
upon by men who were concealed in the
works of coal shaft near the rolling mill
One man was instantly killed and two 9th

young lady Of IS going home from school,
stopped her and attempted to outrage her

On the night of April 18th two men called
on Goodwin, the jailor, and told him that
they had a prisoner to put in Jail. He got
the keys and went to the Jail, when he
was seized and gagged by a mob and forced
to give up the keys. The mob took the
negro out and hung him to tree IN front
of the old Cashlc Church. There are sup
posed to have been one hundred people in
the mob Mr.. Goodwin says he could not
