Farm NOTES.
fsan Francisco Chronicle ]

Early gardening lengtnens the growing
season, and permits, at times, Of two
crops on the same land, as turnips may
follow peas, and time is thereby gained
for putting in late crops.
Is there any reason why a sheep can.
not be made to work light dog power

chance to make capital out Of tho sur.
plus energy Of the old ram.
To have dne crop of large, rich cur.
rants, enrich the ground, make it clean
and mellow and thin out the brush, cut |
away the old wood after fruiting and
leave the vigorous young shoots.
Is it necessary to keep sheep until it
is two or three years old in order to have
6rst-class mutton! The idea among the
English has been that the best mutton
is obtained from three and four-year.old
wethers.

ONE MORE BOOST NEEDED.

Big Railroad Meeting Called for Tonight
at the Courthouse at $50 O'clock.
The railroad committees from Kendall
and Kerr counties, are in the city, hav-
ing come here for the purpose of signing
the contract with the directors Of the
Arkansas Pass road and so driving the
last nail in the arrangements for the
northwest extension. They find them
selves, however, confronted with the
fact that no right-of-way has as yet
been secured through Bexar county,
and until thar Is done all that has been
accomplished to date is Of no avail.
These gentlemen came here in good
faith, supposiDg San Antonio had per-
fected her share Of the work. They
have secured the right-of-way and depot
grounds through Kendall and Kerr
counties, and naturally look to the clti-
zens Of Bexar county to provide right-of-
way to the west limits thereof. This
committee, consisting of w. Scott, Cap
tain Charles Schreiner, AlOnzo Rees and
Captain Joseph A. ivy, are hard at
work among our merchants and real es-
tate owners endesvoring to interest
them more fully in removing this last
obstacle in the way Of breaking ground
for the northwest extension.
lhey nave given weeks OF their time
and hard work in their own counties
raising the funds and securing the right
Of-way and depot grounds in their own
sections, and are not willing to go home
and lose all their labor without meeting
the citizens OF Bexar county and laying
the case before them. These gentlemen
from our neighboring counties are most
anxious to see full attendance Of our
merchants and real estate dealers and
owners, and all interested, at the court
house at $50 tonight. They make
through the columns Of the LIGHT, as q
journal whose position on this railroad
question Is recognized and appreciated
aleng the line Of the proposed extension,
a pointed, personal appeal to the bust
ness men Of San Antonio to meet them
at the court house tonight and confer
with them on this matter. The gentle
men Of the committee have come q long
journey to settle this question, and our
citizens cannot do less than comply with
their request and give them full atten-
dance at the courthouse. The only
hitch in the signing of the papers Is over
this missing link Of right-of-way through
Bexar county, and over this matter San
Antonio should not stand quibbling an
hour.

TRYING TO MURDER HIM.
Interested Parties Shoot at Cal Brannon
and Get Shot In Return.

Interested Parties Shoot at Cal Brannon
and Get Shot In Return.
Cal Brannon is an important witness
In the murder case against the SCOTS,
and there are some persons who are in
terested in getting him out of the way.
III the particulars reported are true, an
attempt was made on Saturday night to
asssssinate him, but 1t signally failed.
The particulars at hand are somewhat
meagre. but 1t appears that on that
night as Cal Brsnnon was driving his
cows out Of the pen of his farm, he heard
a suspicious whistle. Thinking that
something was wrong, he sought cover,
and as he did so, several shots were fired
at him, none, however, taking effect.
From what he heard and saw, he Is sat
isfied that there were three or more men
in the crowd. He fired In the direction
from whence the shots proceeded, but
none OF the shots were effective. One
Of the assassins then exposed himself,
and Cal Brannon, taking deliberate aim,
fired. The shot was answered by a
piercing scream, and the man sprang up,
threw up his arms and fell. Brannon
was satisfied that he was MORALLY
wounded. Justice Berner and Sheriff
Lewis were notified and posse
was made up TO search around. To
their surprise they found that the
wounded man had been removed by
his friends, but on the spot where he fell
was discovered a large pool of blood,
which showed that the individual, who
ever he was; had been seriously injured.
Sheriff Lewis and Deputy Sheriff Ed.
Stevens went out yesterday to the scene
Of the assassination and are now en-
gagged in investigating the crime with
view to arresting the miscreants.
Brannon did not recognize any OF the
men, and as there is no direct clue, the
work Of detection Is a difficult one. 1t
is thought, however, that the would-be
murderers will be traced and arrested.

The Sunset Hose Company Honor Their
Chief with a Beautiful Badge.
There was considerable excitement
among the Sunset Hose company at the
end OF last week when an invitation was
passed around for the boys to attend In
full uniform Dillon's wedding at Meyers
hall, on Saturday evening. Soon the
secret leaked out that there would be no
wedding but was merely covering for
q pleasant surprise to their estimable
chief. The evening papers gave the
affair dead away, but the boys took pre-
cautions that Phil Managers usual LIGHT
did not reach him and he remained in
Ignorance Of the good fortune in store
for him. At the appointed time the
boys mustered in strong force, and q
large number of their wives, sisters,
cousins, aunts, etc, W are present. When
all was qniet, Miss Katie Dillon stepped
forward and with very pretty speech
presented Foreman Phil Manger with q
handsome gold badge. To this presenta-
ton Mr.. Manger and Mr.. Thomas Shields
made suitable reply. AFTER the formality
was over the party INDUCED in very
pleasant hop.
In presenting this badge the Sunset
boys have done things, as they always
do, In whole souled manner, and Mr..
Manager Is the pOssessor OF one Of the
handsomest badges In the country. The
pin Is concealed behind the pinions OF
an eagle. Below 1t Is q bar on which Ia
embossed in blue enamel the word

laureated medallion. In the interior Ia
the setting sun. Around it is embossed
"Sunset Hose Company" in blue enamel
and laurels and below the medallion is

cution artistic, but the boys did not
send away for 1t. They patronized home
industry, giving their order to Stricken

fled their patronage.

a cigar. Mr.. Ed. Drsiss was standing
about Elk yards from him handling a
loaded gun. He raised his gun, and
taking quick aim otf-hsnd, he deftly
knocked the ash from Wagner's cigar.
Poor Wagner was considerably scared
by the act, and it took some time for
him to recover his equsnimity. When
he did so he laughed heartily at the fun.

THE MURDERER OF LINCOLN.

Shepard, the Slayer, Still at Large-The
True Cause of the Act is Jealousy.
The coroner's jury in the case OF
Lorenzo Lincoln, murdered Saturday
afternoon by Henry Shepard, the barber,
after examining number of witnesses,
all of whom testified to Shepard's guilt,
brought In q verdict In accordance with
the facts that the deceased was killed
by Shepard. The body of deceased was
given to two of the young mans friends.
and with s. 20 found on his person and
the proceeds Of his saddle the corpse
was given decent burial.
1t has been learned that Lincoln has q
mother, sister and mother-in-law liv-
ing in Del RE. He had just come in
from of the cattle trail Saturday morn
ing by the ll;50 O'Clock train, and few
moments before his death had parted
with his friends at the depot, saying he
was not going back to his home In Del
Rio yet.
His slayer, Shepard, has not yet been
caught, thought officers are after him
and 1t 10 thought he may finally sur
render. Both Johnson's barber shop at
the depot and Shepard's residence were
under strict guard Saturday night, but
nothing has been seen of him. johnson,
1t Is understood, Is In communication
with Shepard, and keeps him posted on
the affair.
w. M, Nunley, brother-in-law Of Lin
coin, Is now In the city from Del Rio,
and through johnson, communicated
with Shepard, telling him he did not
come here to make more trouble, but
that he wanted to see him and have q
talk with him. He has not very good
word to say In regard to Mrs. Shepard
and throws the blame for the killing on
her. He says the boy tried to keep away
from her and have nothing to do with
her In Del Rio. She and Shepard had
separated once for eight months and
Shepard had acknowledged she was an
immoral woman. Lincoln, while on the
trail, received letters from her, which he
told his friends he would not answer.
Nunley says Shepard had made the re-
mark when he left Del Rio with his wife
that II he ever saw Lincoln In San
Antonio he would kill him.
