last night about one o'clock in front
of his Office on the Strand by the po-
hceman on that beat. He was con-
SciouS, but unable to walk, from the
effects of an overdose of morphine.
Mr.. Kings account of his disappear
ance is about as follows: He said that
yesterday morning he was suffering
and left his Office and took a dose of
morphine and went to the beach to
have the benefit of the sea air. Soon
after reaching there he lost all con-
| SciousneSS and knew nothing until a
late hour last night, when he recov-
cred and was placed on the car and
sent to town, and was found as above
stated and taken in charge and sent
home. Mr.. King, hover, is reticent

his business as usual, but much cha
grined that his eScapade should have
got into print.

, pretty strongly intimated that there
is disposition on the part of the di-

couragement to extend it to any
tangible northern outlet.

kind.
Mrs. Stookbridge, of Houston, sud-
denly died this evening in a house on

DALLAS. May 31.-Capt. Ross, in
his crop report to the department of
agriculture at Washington for June
as early sown, particularly Mediter-
ranean and Nicaragua. There is
some little complaint of blade
rust. The stalk is healthy.
So long as this is the case no injury
is apprehended. The yield promises
fair average. We are now harvest
ing barley and rye, which is good, but
little sOwn. Oats early sown
are very good; the late SOW
ing is not SO good, heading
rather low, but average; the yield
will be good one. Corn is fine land
has been well cultivated. The aver
age this season is large. # the Reason
should continue, the yield will be a
large one. Cotton, good stands, and
planters well up with blowing
and chOpping. The nights have
been rather cool of late for
it, but it has plenty OF time yet to
make. The average is ten or fifteen
less than last years. Apples and
peaches, about one-fourth Of crop.
Fruit is badly stqnt9d by the c1rcu-
las. From this cause plums have
most all been destroyed. All crops
are fifteen days late, but the prospects
are good for an abundant harvest.

The undersigned desires to call the atten-

it give way when people are passing up

otherwise than disastrous.

At the regular Monday morning meeting
of the city clergy, held in Association par
lors yesterday, Rev. j. 6. Ersten read a pa
per on the subject of local prohibition, and
suggested that the following three reform
atory measures might be taken to advan.
tage in this city:
First, reducing the number of drinking
places by imposing on saloons license Of
not less than $500; second, the enactment
of an ordinance requiring the removal and
abolition of all screens at saloon doors and
windows; prohibiting the playing of any
games in saloons; third, the defeat at the
polls of any candidate for alderman who
is saloon keeper. Mr.. Erston held thai
the prohibition of pool playing, billiards
and other games in saloons would remove
some of the allurements and temptations
connected with saloons.
In the discussion that followed the read
ing the suggestions were pretty generally
approved. Mr.. Satterlee opposed high Ii.

Chamber of Co9nfl,erce.

A meeting of the chamber of commerce
was held yesterday morning. A number
of letters from persons at distance were
read. These communications were in re-
gard to establishing certain kinds of bust
ness in Saltwater. OF the number one
was an inquiry what the prospects would
be for pulp mill another was in regard
to a cracker factory. All such letters were
referred to the proper committees or to
the secretary for action.
DR.. Clark reported to the chamber the
existence of smallpox in the lumber camps
on the North Wisconsin railroad and
gave as his opinion there was much danger
of the disease reaching this city. The
state boards of health of Minnesota and
Wisconsin have been notified and quaran-
tine established, at Saltwater junction.

observed stout boy belonging to the fam

On being urged by the head of the family
to release the hen and join in the devo-
tons the undevout lad showed no signs of
obedience, but stood stock still with the
old hen under his youthful arm while the
family, led by the pastor, knelt in prayer.
When the devoutmem bers of the family
responded hearty amen the attentive boy
would pinch the old hen, whereupon the
tortured fowl would utter mournful cry,
to the great amusement of the boy. It is
hardly necessary to say that the prayer
was a short one and unmixed with the
faith that removes mountains
