THE CATTLE QUEEN AGAIN.
She Buys ioo.ooo.oco Acres in
MEXICO.

On Monday the cattle queen again
dropped In on the astonished sight of
the San Antoninns, and put up ut
another Of the tlrst-class hotels. II is
said that she had been to san Marcos
where she had perfected the purchase
o! l0O,OOOOO acres of grazing lands in
Mexico. I his she intends to stock with
high grade cattle. The well-known fine
slockmen, Captain futile and Major
Buzzard are accidentally taking their
hash ut the same hotel. They are al
ways on hand when there is anything in
the shape Of trade in the wind. Last
night she blinded the eyes of the cattle
kings In front OF the Southern hotel by II
dash In u hack. IL is suggested
that the Southern Live stock
association give her grand
reception. making her an honorary mem
Der Why can't there be one Queen
among 80 many kings!
Last evening she called TO see her
dressmaker, and left solitaire diamond
ring lying on the table. The dress
maker discovered the valuable Jewel
and asked one Of her assistants to wear
1t for safe-keeping until the Queen could
be notified Of her loss. When told OF II
she looked ut her sparkling fingers and
In II medjtatiye, doubling mood, said:
Dear me, believe ! did leave one of
my rings.=Neyer mind; I'll call for it,"
But ut last accounts the dressmaker's
assistant was dazzling the eyes Of her
friends with the brilliant sparkler. A
llGlll reporter was shown the $50
dress In process Of construction. The
foundation and first story was of velvet
front, bright, rainbow-Colored knOtted
ribbon corners, with sides and rear of
brown, smouih-face, close iointed ruille
work. The plans for the upper story
were not accessible. but he was assured
that IL was the most elaborate ever
erected In san Antonio. The architect
will be immortuliZed. The lady incl

hotel that she believed thar she had
mission to prove to her sex that the de-
pendence Of men for support and pro-
tection was entirely useless. All that
ladies needed was little more conf
denGe In themselves and they would be
entirely independent Of the "horrid
men,"
The Queen leaves for Galveston to-
night for short season on the beach,
but will return again to the Alamo City.
She says that this Is the most congenial
point In the State, rs it is the headquar-
ters of all the large stockmen of the
southwest.

PROSPECTIVE LEGISLATION.
No Special Session Now Expected-COnd;-
tion of the ApproPriations-The SEN
ate Well Up With It's Work.

WAsRINGToN, Feb. % Mr. Randall, Chair
man Of the House Committee on Appropris-
tions, is OF the opinion there will be no ex-
ira session Of Congress. He says all the reg
ular appropriation bills Will be ssed by
the House before the end Of this geek. The
Naval bill will be called up for further dis
cussion tomorrow, and alter its passage the
consideration of the General Deficiency bill
will be asked. The Appropriations Commit
tee will report the Sundry Civil bill TO.
morrow, and Randall will endeaYor
to secure It's passage on Wednesday
under q suspension Of the rules. The
FO4tifcation bill will probably be
reported to the House by Thursday. It will
be similar TO the bill Of last year, making
provision simply for the repair and prsser.
vation of existing works. An effort will be
made by the friends OF the River and Harbor
bill to secure at least ga hour each day for
its c0nsider8 ion until completed.
During the last six days OF the ses.
sion begin ing next Wednesday, motions
TO suspeDf ne TrIles Will be in order at any
time Whei the House is not IN committee
of the whsie, o engaged with unfinished
business; but IL lew OF the large amount OF
Work yet to be done on the appro prlati0n
bills, and the possible consideration of the
silver coinage question, there Is not much
probability that many opportunities will be
presented for taking advantage of this
privilege during the week.
The Senate has under consideration the
Postofhce Appropriation bill, and it is ex-
peoted action will be reached tomorrow, as
the sub committee of the Senate Committee
on Appropriations was in session all day
Saturday upon the Legislative Appropriation
bill, and this measure will probably be ready
for consldeIation in the Senate as soon as
the Fostoffice bill is disposed of.
Senator Lapham's report on the Des
Moines River bill remains the unfinished
busiD for the morning hour. 1t is eE-
pected the Pacific Railroads bill and the
Anti-Silver Coinage bill will be brought up
during the week whenever an oppor-
tunty occurs after the morning hour.
Tie Senate is keeping fully up with
the House in its work upon the General
Appropriation bills. and il those remaining
are promptly sent over, and contain no ex-
tran eous matter, except such as the Senate
can approve, the work OF the session will be
brought to an end at noon on the 4th Of
March.
The Military Academy bill has become a
law, and the District of COlUnbis and Con.
sulsr and Diplomatic Appropriation bill
awaits the Presidents signature. The Army,
Indian, Agricultural and Pension bills have
passed both hous les, and are in rhe hands of
Con ference Committees.

eIemy great injury with his Gardner guas.

Wao, with thirteen men, stole cautiously
round the enemy's right, and found they had
oily 100 rihemen on the hills and no reserves
oispeermen. Wardrop's men keeOlng out OF

the enemy's flank. Leaving one man at this
