Correspondence OF the Gazette.
THoy, Tx July l0.-One Of the
most daring rOoberies ever perpe-
trated IN this community occurred
last evening A colored man hailiDg
from Austin assaulted German a
mile or two south Of this place on the
public highway, relieving him Of ten
or fifteen dollars in money and his
watch. The German reported his loss
10 some farmers near by, who, after q
sharp chase, captured the negro and
brought him To this place, where he
was turned over to n deputy and taken
to jail this morning.
There is a petition being circulated
here, and pretty extensively signed
asking the county Judge to order an
election 10 determine whether the
sale of alconolIc liquors shall be pro-
hibited In Bell county. There seems
to be considerable interest in the
pr lhibition problem In this section,
aud indications are that 1t will
figure In our next canvass.

Prof. A. N. Hong.

Prof Hogg has been elected, for the
four h time, superintendent Of the
Fort Worth public schools. The peo'
pie there know u good thing when they
see 1t, and don't give 1t up for u
within. ~ Cleburne Chronicle.
Prof Hogg's services entitled him
to the recognition Of them noted by
the Chronicle. The public schools OF
Fort Worth are sec Dad to none in the
state, and their great excellence is due
to the patient, intelligent and devoted
attention given them by Prof Hogg.
He has fairly won the honor Fort
Worth so freely accords.
