TEXAS PLEASANTRlE ES
A Mob Releases Forty Convict LabOrers
I'm Braz0s County.

ST. Louis, Nay .15:-An Austin,
Texas, special says: This forenoon
Governor Ireland received telegram
from Major Iodee, superintendent:
of the Texas Penitentiary, giving in
formation of the most daring and
successful outrage ever committed in
Texas. Forty State convicts We're
employed on Clay's farm, in Brazos
county. Last evening, when work
was stopped great mob OF armed
men surrounded the guards and
prisoners. and demanded the release
of the latter. The guards refused.
There upon a fight ensued, in which
the convic.s joined forces with the
mob. The conflict was a terrible one
and resul ed in q victory for the at-
tacking party, who disappeared with
the convicts. There is no definite
information as to whether there
were any killed and wounded, but it
is reported that several men were
fatally wounded. The outrage is due
10 the hue and cry against the en-
ployment of convict labor from the
Penitentiary. The Governor has
offered a reward of $500 for the con-
viction of any of the leaders in the
outrage.

Never stand at the foot of SICK
bed and survey the patient. All
figures loom large to fevered eyes,
and by the side Of the bed are only
partially seen, and do not annoy
with the sense of too much presence.
Do not open the door very slowly,
for then the attention is strained,
speculating as to who the next conner
can possibly be after all this prepara-
tion and with such cautious approach.
Low but clear tones, quiet but sure
movements, and rapid rather than
slow, are great relief to any patent
who is blessed with practical nurse.
Whispering is torture. Silence is
best until you can discuss matters IN
another room; but If you SPEAK,
speak out, and make no mysteries
about anything. In severe illness the
nurse must watch her patient stead
iIv. but not seem to be looking. In
convalescence it frequently sootnes
the invalid to have the nurse seated
at the window apparently looking
out. This frees the faculties from the
tension that the sense of being
watched usually gives. Hats Jour-
nal of Health.

Difficulties.

SAN FRANCISCO May 16.-Associa-
ted Press advices from Toxic, Japan,
state that the negotiations between
Japan and China, regarding the
Corean difficulty have been amicably
concluded. The convention has been
signed at Tientsin as follows:
First-China and Japan to with
draw their troops from Corea and
neither to send any soldiers there
again. without giving previous no.
tice to the other.
Second-The Chinese commanders
who led the attack on the japanese
Minister and his body-guard, at
Seoul, to be publicly reprimanded.
Third-The Chinese Government
to Immediately investigate the
charges against the Chinese soldiers
who killed a private Japanese. and
to punish all persons found guilty, as
well as to remunerate the families
and relatives of the murdered and
injured persons.
The result is viewed as peaceful
triumph for Japan.

mbarrassment to the Japanese Gov
ernment. Japan will not allow it to
pass without a protest, believing her
territory to he in danger,in the event
of war between England and Russia.

ohama intend to give Mr.. Bingham,

= public dinner, as mark of their
esteem aud their appreciation of his
service. Some testimonial, when

To the MINER.

To the MINER.
STUART, Montana, May Is, 1885.
In your issue of the 18th ultimO
there appeared an article entitled
"Water War;" in which 1t is claimed
that the alleged mines Of German
have never been worked to sn alarm
ing extent, etc. Allow me, as an old
miner and resident OF that gulch, to
state that the gulch was discovered
on the 5th day of September, 1854
that it has been successfully worked
ever since, and several million dol
lars in gold has been taken out, and
sOwn broadcast over the Territory;
that the ground over which the
imbrogllo has happened has cost the
present owners and others many
thousands of dollars; that the waters
of the gulch and its tributary have
been in constant use for over twenty
years that it has never been aban-
doned, but has often changed hands,
and that some of the best men in the
Territory have spent the flower OF
their lives in digging and delving
for the glittering dross in the gulch.
Am ong them can be found some of
the best men of Butte, such as Lee
w. Foster, Thomas C. Porter, Joseph
Ramsdell, George w. Newkirk,
Dennis Leary, George w. Beal,
George Firchen, William Dougherty,
Dennis Driscoll, of Walkerville,

1t IS a very interesting study to 90,
serve the effects of high cutting speed
in saws and moulding machines, but
it must be very mysterious TO the
observers who advocate that 1t Is not
the teeth that saw, but the air that is
confined within the spaces when
driven at great velocity. 1t makes
a very pleasant theory and gives tne
disbeliever q chance to disprove 1t.
The circular saw when i'll motion
gathers quanty of air between each
tooth and completely protects them
az if plated with steel, and will glide
through the hardest oak cutting a
clean skerf, the PARTICLES OF air serv-
ing as cutting edge, but it has not
been explained why the saw needs
filing. 1t would eeu, according 10
this theory, that all that would be
needed would be to let the saw rest a
moment and give it a chance 10 vens
tiIate itself and get a new supply OF
fresh air within its teeth; or perhaps
this gas eous fluid works both ways
since action and reaction are equal,
and removes the edge on tue saw
tooth, leaving the impres sion that IL
is the salicious impuritiesln the TIM
Der that wears away the teetn.

THE WAGES OF SIN.
Sarah Indlig Killed In . Duel Between
w. A, Somerset and A. Daniels.

The San Francisco Bulletin gives
the following details of an awful
crime enacted in that city on sunday
last:
About 4 o. clock yesterday afternoon
Sarah Indig, aged ~, and William
A. Somerset, were both shot by the
woman's paramour, Augustin D N
iels, alias William Willetts. Somer-
set is q youth of hoodlum tendencies,
who is said to have recently sup
planted Daniels in the girls affec-
lions. The affair occurred on Kearny
street, between California and Sacra-
mento. Both men drew their revol-
vers almost simultaneously. A bullet
passed near the heart of the woman
and she died in q few minutes. Two
bullets struck Somerset. One of them
pierced the right breast near the shoul-
der, struck rib and glanced around,
lodging under the skin in the back.
The other bullet entered the left fore
arm, and, passing upward, lodged in
the muscle. Daniels was charged
with murder. Before being locked
up he expressed desire to see the
woman, and was taken into the
hospital where he cried bitterly. He
talked freely about the cause of the
tragedy. He first met the deceased
woman in the early part of 1888,
when she lived with married
sister corner of Twenty-ninth and
Mission streets. He was machinist.
They fell in love, and, in spite of the
objections of friends, in six months
they ran off together to Los Angeles.
There Daniels ran an express wagon.
Three months ago Somerset made
his appearance and became intimate
with Daniels and his mistress,
especially with the latter. Last week
they fled together, arriving here
Thursday. They took with them
about 500 of Daniels money. He
followed them on the next train.
He searched for his former
mistress, and found her in q
house on Sacramento street. He
saw her yesterday and importuned
her to return to him. They took a
walk together, met Somerset, and the
tragedy resulted. There were five
shots in all, three from Daniels
WC6HOu duu UWO A1Ou OOAOAoOV -
neither of the latter, however, taking
effect. Daniels maintains that the
killing of the woman was purely
accidental, and this theory is gener-
ally believed by tie police. Daniels
story of the shooting is that he tried
to persuade Somerset to let the girl
alone and not trouble them in the
future, his last words being: "You
have got every thing-the girl and the
money, too; take the money, but give
me the girl" To this Somerset re-
piled, angrily, and at once fired.
Daniels then drew his pistol, small
American bulldog. and opened fire
also, discharging three shots, mean
while gradually retreating across
Kearny street. The girl ran between
them, but finding that she could do
nothing to prevent continuance of
the shooting, attempted, but in vain,
to get out OF the way of the rapidly
fired shots.

Hartford Times, tells the folio wing
story: "Appropos of singers, I should
like to relate an anecdote which, l
am pretty sure, has never seen the
light before. In 1864 lady friend
of mine in Paris, engaged Swedish
gOverness for her children. The sal.
ary was agreed upon, and fortnight
later the young lady was to COM

passed and the governess did not
make her appearance. Great was the
surprise of my friend, a few days
later, to see by the bill of the Theater
Lyrique that the Swedish girl was to

she will break the ties which en-
chaln her to share the life which she

steps have been taken to suppress the

English papers.
THE SQUABBLE ON HERAT.
The British Government to-day
issued dipl )matic papers which state
that her Majesty's Government will
be compelled to regard as a hostile
act any movement of the Russians
towards Herat. On the other hand
it Is announced that Russia has spon-
taneously disclaimed anv menacing
intention in regard to Herat. The
British Government is, therefore,
favorably inclined to consider that
the question at issue between Eng
land and Russia has reached q set
tlement satisfactorily to both coun-
tries. The documents submitted to
Parliament to-day cover the
Anglo-Russian dispute up to the
time of the Penjdeh incident and
show the aggression on the part
of the Russian Government upOn the
Ameer's territory, of which Herat is
the salient point.
From st. Petersburg comes the
news that the Russian Government
has decided upon Russianizing the
German provinces along the
Baltic. To accomplish this the Car
has issued an ukase that hereafter
the Russian language shall be taught
in all the schools in these provinces
and shall entirely replace the Ger
man language now being tsught in
these schools. A similar qdict has
been issued in Warsaw in the Morn-
ing Journal. This edict makes the
Russian language the only elemen-
tary language to be taught through
out Russian Poland.
1t is announ ced that as soon as the
Anglo-Russian difficulty is settled
the Czarina will visit the Princess of
Wales in London.
IN DEMAND.
The rush for the Press ard for
authentic copies of the Revised Old
Testament is unprecedented in Eng
land. The Pail Mall Gazette states
this evening that the London cor
respondent of a cert ain New York
newspaper offered $500 for simply an
advance copy of the Revised Old
Testament at one Of the University
publishing houses. The officers
having the printing in charge were
obdurate III refusing the correspond
ent's request. The correspondent of
the Gazette says he was authorized
by his paper to spend $500 in tele-
graphing the main features of the
new version. The first orders f)r the
issue of the revision amounted to
100. 900.
