the same honest, fair and legitimate bust
ness which We have done during the past
year.
We feel thankful 10 the citizens OF Ban
Marcos and surrounding trade for what they
have done for us, and most respectfully 30
licit continuation of their patronage.
Our stock will be kept complete with
choice fresh goods, bought and handled
with care and with special consideration OF
the wants of our customers.
Buying from first hands for cash, and
making tho majority of our purchases In
large quantities, enables us to secure jobbers
prices, and thereby sell to the trade as low,
Ii not lower than the lowest.

will save money by calling TO see as before
making arrangements for the coming year.

CATCHING AT STBAw.-In our last issue
we inclosed o supplement containing the
Presidents Message. 1t WAS got up by the
printers of the Houston Post, and we pur-
chased the sheets of them. In addition to
the Message there were some advertise.
ments, among which it appearsawas brief
card of wholesale liquor dealer of Hous-
ton. We did not notice this until our at
tention was called to it by our virtuous
neighbor of the Cresset, who makes 1t the
occasion Of quarter of columns denun-
citation of us, as II we had designedly IN
serted the advertisement.
Sensible and honest people will be at no

San Marcos free press. [volume] (San Marcos, Tex.) 1877-1892, 1885-12-24

The Cresset we learn now has practical
printer and newspaper man connected with
It. The consequence as we presume is the
disappearance from its last issue of the
''plate matter" recently 80 eulogised by
neighbor Hull. He Is thus compelled to
confess the justice of our condemnation OF
his "plates." We predict the remarkable
engraved "head" of the Cresset, upon which
Hull so set his affections as the very ideal OF
artistic beauty, will also soon have to go
that is, if the counsel Of any good practical
printer should prevail in his Office.

night last, at Piney HILL about 10 miles from

buggy and demanded admittance, stating that
they wanted some whisky. After dressing.

took the drink and started out to the buggy, but
returned and took another drink. When they
went out the second time they stated that some
one had moved the buggy. went in the house
and procured a lantern and accompanied them
to the middle of the road. They kept on travel
one hundred yards when they turned around
buggy. They advanced toward me, and when
about thirty feet away the gray-haired man,
that afterwards identified as keleher, delibe-
rately put his hand in his pocket and, without
any provocatiOn, fred his pistol at me, but
without effect. He then fired again, when the
ball entered my abdomen. then cried Muir
DER and the two men jumped in the buggy
and lett ! crawled into the house. My son-in-
law and others started after the parties. They
were arrested and brought back, and when
they entered my room, Identified keleher as
the man who fired the shots, but why he did it
am unable to say. / never met them before
and do not know anything about them"
keleher is about 60 years of age, while Harry
Carrigan, the party who was with him, u not
over 10 years Of age.

A Dangerous Water-Filter.

A LADY DYING FROM BLOOD POISONING.
Some weeks ago a gentleman living in South
Washington purchased from a travelling agent
a small water-filter for fastening to the nozzle
of kitchen sinks to purify drinking water. The
wife of the purchaser in adjusting it one day
scratched the inside of her right hand with the
filter just enough to draw blood, and it seems
to have produced blood poisoning as the hand
commenced to swell and Inflammation set in,
making frightful wound. Physicians have
been attending her, and nothing has been left
undOne to administer to her sufferingS, but she
has been given up incurable. The metal
seems to have been made from a composition of
zinc and brass.

THE PHILADELPHIA BELLIES LOVE AFFAIR
WHILE PRISONER IN THE ASYLUM.
From the n. Y. World.
A lady resident of Mount Morris hotel, at Sd
avenue and 13Oth Streets was an inmate of the
Pennsylvania Insane asylum at Harrisburg
during part of the time that Miss Addie P.
Brinkle, of Philadelphia, was confined there.
She was seen by a World reporter yesterday
and corroborated the accuracy of the recently
published account of Miss Brinkles detention
at the asylum for q period of twenty-seven
years, though all that time she was entirely
sane. In reply to questions the lady, whose
name at her request is not made public, said:
Eyes, 1 knew Addie Brinkle Intimately. At
treated by the attending physician for ner-
vous disease. For five years my room was next
to hers, and her sunny temper and happy dis
position did much to brighten that dreary life
She never thought for a moment that her stay
would be prolonged more than a year. 1 re-
member seeing her father and Judge Wood
they give the poor girl much encouragement.
Her fathers last visit occurred just before his
death. He left his daughter in a frightful rage.
There was at that time under the care of DIR.
named Scott Kidder, of Wilkesbarre, promi-
nent young lawyer, but of Incorporate habits.
Addie and he had the privilege of the warden's
parlor, and an intimacy spraug up between
them which ripened into love. They were
making preparations for marriage after their
release. Mr.. Brinkle at this time paid Addie a
visit and was told of the engagement. He flew
into an awful passion and abruptly left his
daughter. That was the last time she ever saw
her father. He compelled DR.. kerwin to break
Oft all meetings between the two young people.
Soon after that Kidder was removed, and
have never heard anything from him since.
mo one knew better than the injustice Of
her detention. 1t may seem strange to the
public that she could have been sane and yet
have been detained all these years, but can
easily understand it. Every plan for release
seemed to fail Just at "a critical moment, and
after the death of her relatives the authorities
thought they might as we'll support her as to
send her to some charitable institution"

Jones and Barrett's New Play.

Special Cable Dispatch the EVENING STAR
LONDON, August 19.-The verdict of the Lon
don press is thoroughly favorable to the new
play, "Hoodman Blind" by Jones and Wilson
Barrett, produced last night at the Princess
theater. 1t has the disadvantage of following
such very successful similar plays as "The Sill
yer King" and 1.-THE Lights o. London" It is a
sensational melOdrama relieved by touches of
simple human nature characteristic of Jones'
work. The audience of the Princess theater,
for whom the play is clearly intended, received
it with enthusiasm. Barrett's own part has
nothing new. 1t was admirably played. Miss
Eastlake and Mr.. Willard both played better
than ever before. The scenery of the English
village and the Thames embankment by MOON
light could hardly have been better. The for
mer was recognized by many i'm the audience.
The plot may be described as rural English
"OthellO." The summary of old material is ad-
mirably put together, finely mounted, perfectly
adapted for the theater and excellently acted
throughout. 1t will not add much to Barrett 5
reputation as an actor, but will ill the theater
q long time.
