THE VISIT TO FLORESVILLE.
A Short Account Written by One Of the
Excursionists.

A majority of the members of the
Press association gathered at the depot
of the San Antonio and Arkansas Pass
railway yesterday at O'Clock p. m, to
avail themselves of the invitation of B.
f. Yoakum, the genial manager of that
route, for the proposed excursion to
Floresville and beyond. MIR. Yoakum,
as master of ceremonies, Mr.. Owen
SinOt as captain on deck, had everything
ready, and soon the train was on its
way, southbOund, at the rate of more
than 20 miles per hour. The people of
FlOresVille had had but "A hours notice
of the coming of the visitors, yet they
proved themselves equal to the emer-
genCy.
A reception committee met the excur-
sionists at the depot and escorted them
TO the court house, where Mr.. Williams
welcomed them in brief but pointed
complimentary speech, which was an
swered by Mr.. Foster on the part of the
visitors.
An invitation to partake of lunch
was readily responded to, and consider
ing the short notice that the people OF
FlOresville had, the collation. that was
spread was justly grand, only, thereby
hangs the tale, the flowing bowl,
whether malt, yinOus or otherwise, was
missing. Time was called, all aboard,
and the train moved further south to a
high elevated point, from whence the
eye could see for twenty and more
miles ahead, and where mesquite and
cactus are Astounding Said Mr.. Yoakum:
Ladies and gentlemen-This is the
surface OF country over which the road
runs all the way to the Gulf.
1t seemed like viewing the promised
land. Backward again the iron horse
sped, stopping but few moments at
Floresville, and thence toward the Ala
mo city.
Before coming into the depot the ex-
cursiOnists took possession of the train
and stopped 1t in order to pass resolu-
tions of thanks and appreciation In favor
and honor of Mr.. b. f. Yoakum, Senator
Houston, and the officers of the Mission
route, for favors and kindness In tender
ing the excursion. Mr.. Yoakum, as q
modest gentleman, pushed Mr.. Houston
forward to make appropriate response.
Resolutions Of thanks were also passed
in favor Of the citizens Of Floresville for
their very nice reception and treatment
while there.

palaces. about 40 miles from Pekin, on
the imperial road, had been destroyed
by fire. The palace was built in 1850.

Sc. JOINS, n. F., May 90 st. Georges
bay, on the west coast Of Newfoundland,
telegraphs the following extraordinary
story: A French vessel arrived here yes
| terday from ST. Malo, bound to Port Au
Choix. She came for the purpose Of
landing Miss Louise Journeaux, who
was picked up from an open boat at sea
about 20 miles of the island of Jersey.
The lady, with gentleman named
Farne, went boating on Sunday evening,
April s. Her companion let one oar
slip and In attempting TO recover IL lost
the other, and jumped overheard TO re-
cover them. Tine wind was fresh and
there was strong current setting from
the land. The boat fast drifted beyond
swim for land. Miss Journeaux alone In
the boat drifted to sea, and for 40 hours
lived in solitary agony until rescued by
the French vessel. The violent off shore
winds prevented the Frenchman from
reaching Jersey and the lady was car
ried across the Atlantic to Newfound-
land. Farne reached ST. Hilaire's har-
Dor safely, but his story was disDelieved.
People from the shore affirmed that they
had heard cries OF murder from the sea.
Farne was arrested and indicted for
homicide. His Liberation is, OF course,
certain, Miss Journeaux having cabled
her miraculous escape.

A way-worn Aztec Nearly Drowned

Last evening, about $3.50 O'Clock, the
attention Of the people in the vicinity Of
the Houston street bridge were attracted
by hearing a loud splash in the river.
Investigation revealed the figure of a
man in the water below, and being hal
looed to, he called for help. John Cav
anaugh and Officer wilkins, assisted by
some boys, secured a rope and threw II
to the man, and he was safely drawn up
and landed high, but not dry, upon the
bridge. He was an intelligent Mexican,
evidently suffering from some bodily iii,
being very feeble and emaciated, and
gave his name as Francisco Vasquez.
He said he had fallen over the railing
into the river while resting, but as the
railing is high and he little man, ii is
not improbable that he sought to end his
misery in a watery grave. The water
happened to be very shallow, however,
at that point, else the result would have
been quite different. He appeared very
nonchalant when rescued, and was taken
to the hospital
