WACO, March 23.-lSpec4al. DR.. J..
c. j. King, Of this city, reports recent
interesting case in obstetrics. A young
Norwegian woman u few days ago gave
birth to healthy, well formed girl
child. To the astonish ment OF physi-
clans and patient. labor pains we're re.
newed about 30 hours after the birth of
the child and exactly three DAYS after
the coming of the first infant lusty
maze chllu was born, much larger than
inc girl enid. The experience was too
much for the mother, who died yester-
day, but both the children are alive and
doing well. DR.. King says il is the sec.
ond case OF the kind he has had in
Waco.
A special venire of $40 iutymen was
drawn in the district court this morn
ing TO try the nine murderer cases that are
on the docket.

The blizzard has been here and il was
a stiugareo. Tho weather was more than
cold enough Tor frost, but clouds inter-
yenei to protect small grain and fruit.
This county is a fine grain growing soc.
ton and the outlook for a good grain
crop was never better than at present.
IL Is on this account that the prObabl.
lty OF frost at this time is such an im-
portant question, as ii involves the
safety Of cereals now growing so finely.

exercises protectorate over the
Afghans, and the latter over the Turko-

pastoral peoples,and 1t IL as essentially a
cattle quarrel, AS are those quarrels
that arise along the Rio Grande

stockmen. Turkomen, of Penjdeh,

the Oxus, toward Herat, and Afghans
branded calves belonging to Turkomeu.
Their are greater questions involved.

India. 1t is also alleged that England
Is disposed to annex Afghenlstan. But
