Fatal Accident.

A clap of thunder from clio idless
sky could not have caused greater
CONSERVATION among the people Of
Shoshonc, than did the startling cry,
'Marv keefer is drowned" About
6 o'clock last evening, while attempt
ing to cross Little Wood River on a
timber which had been thrown across
in the rear of the Dill place, she lost
her balance, fell into the river, and
sank from sight, coming to the sur
fec but once, and then about six
rods down the river. The people
turned out at once to recover the
body, if possible, but up to late
nour this morning have failed, and
grave fears are entertained that the
search will be frui,less, as the river i:
much swollen by the recent storms
and is very rapid.
Miss keefer was an estmablt
young lady, about 1G years of age
and her loss will be deeply felt by I
large circle Of admiring friends. Th'
afflicted relatives have the heartfelt
sympathy Of the entire community.

ALMOST A DUEL.
Sheriff Furey Interferes just In Time
to Prevent BiOOdshed.

About half-past 3 o'clock this after
noon, John Condron, the well-known
sport, started up Bullion street, in
company with Jos. b. Oldham, and
the news spread instantly that duel
was to be fought at the race track.
Sheriff Furey was soon found and
started up Bullion street on
a run. He caught up with
Messrs. Condron and Oldham at
tho corner of Second avenue
and Bullion street ordered them to
halt, and told Mr.. Condron thaC he
was under arrest. He then ran back
toward town to find hank Lufkins,
the freighter, who was to be the other
party to the duel, and found him on
First avenue, in the act Of loading his
rifle, which he had just got at home.
AS soon as he saw MIR. Lufkins,
Sheriff Furey raised his hand while
running and commando him to lower
his gun, which Mr.. Lufkins did. Don
Mckay, who came up, and Sheriff fu-
rev escorted Mr.. Lufkins back home
where Mrs. Lufkins, who had no,
missed the rifle, was much astonished
to hear what had just happened.
Shortly after, Condron was in Rain.

OVER no PAYING MINES.

Superintendent Ravens, OF the May
flower Mining Company, while in
Salt Lake recently, said that Lead
vile, a her best, only had 10 paying
mines, and that Wood River would
have fully that number this year.
This seems to have opened the eyes
of the Salt Lakers who, strange as it
may seem, did not know that we had
one fourth that number of paying
mines here. And yet last summer
the fact that large number OF
mines were contributing ore to the
Philadelphia Company's furnaces was
published time and again. But it Is
probable that these reports were sci
down as newspaper exaggcrat'ons
The people are so accustomed to false
reports of the wealth of mines thai
they can scarcely credit any news
paper article nova. days. But Mr.
Havens's statement, coming as it does
from u conservative and eminent,
successful miner, will doubtless b'
given more weight. And the yield
of the mines named, as made public
from day to day, will prove that i
was within the bounds of truth.
From present indications WOOD
River will have more than 10 payin:
mines this summer.

Dallas rate Is about 3per cent. for state, city
aud county. The committee have been In
consultation with n number Of leading citi-
zens to-day, and say they are much encour-
aged over the prospects OF such success.
Had the writer of this letter been
moved by desire to tell the truth, he
would have said that the rate of taxa.
tlon for all purposee, state, county and
municipal, Is less than 3 per cent. in
Fort Worth. The present rate, ss

SULPHUR SPRINGS, April 2l.-The
farming interest of our county is well
advanced, and but for the very heavy
and cold rains for the last three days,
we would say that the weather had
been all the farmers could wish. 1t is
very cold, and all kinds of vegetation
in great danger.
Our town and county, while not on
regular boom, are steadily improving,
and everything has solid, substantial
air about it. In fact, taken altogether,
Hopkins county is one among the best
counties in the state. We can and do
grow almost everything that can be
grown in Texas. We have consider
able cattle and sheep interest, and cot
ton, corn ana small grain grow we'll
here. We have sober, moral and
substantial citizenship, good school
and church facilities. county finances
in healthy condition, people well out
of debt, and we only need better rail-
road facilities. II we had the north.
east branch of the Houston & Texas
Central we would be happy.
Ireland for governor. Culberson for
congress and j. A. b Putnam for dis
trict judge is the feeling in this county,
and this section will before the state
convention urge the claims of Mai
John Nj. Richardson for superin-
tendent of public instruction. He is
one of the best fitted men in the state
for the place. Swain is very popular
in Northeast Texas, and we suppose he
will not have any opposition. Local
politics are very quiet. Our Republic
can friends of this county have held
their county convention and elected
