Correspondence OF the Gazette.
PEcos CRY, TEx., Oct. Sour new
arteslan well No. 9, which began flowing
at depth OF 2Ss feet, is getting stronger
every day, and from hurried analysis
by Prof. Bowen, the water contains a
great deal less foreign matter than No. 1,
and the pressure Is greater. To Reeves
county belongs the honor OF having the
first artesian well on the courthouse
square OF any county In the state, and
one year from date her citizens will point
with pride TO their public square with its
fountains, shade trees, shrubbery and floral
attractions. The yards and gardens Of
private families will be planted with shade
and fruit trees, and grape vines and vege-
tables In their particular seasons. That
such will be the appearance of Pecos
City ere the harvest moon again
completes It's annual trip, is as
certain as night follows day.
And the old ''chesnutn that West Texas
Is an arid plain and an alkali bed, win be
consigned to deserved oblivion. There
will &c raised on Toyah Creek, In this
county $4,000 bushels of corn or over,
besides sugar cane, tobacco, samples Of
cotton, vegetables and melons by the
wagon loads. The farming Is done over
there by irrigation, the water supply be-
ing almost unlimited. Whenever coun-
try depends on irrigation for agricultural
purposes the inconvenience Of drought
are unknown, and the people are never
objects Of charity, nor burden 20 their
neighbors On the other hand they are
happy, prosperous and contented, and
such is the condition OF the people of
Reeves county to-day, She has not ap-
peared a. the door Of her neighbors in
the role of mendioant, nor has the cry
for help gone DER the land, and with her
irrigating facilities she will never appear
in the humiliating role OF an almoner,
and an object OF commlseration and
charity to those who are so disposed,

a Blooming Grove Druggist, Probably,
Fatally Cut.
special to the Gazette.
CoRsIcANA, TEX, Oct 9.--Last even
ing John A. Palmer, leading citizen and
druggist OF Blooming Grove, in this
county, was, probably, fatally cut by
a knife in the hands of one Ohio Aims
worth, transient, under peculiarly ag-
gravating circumstances. Ainsworth
came into the drugstore and approached
DR.. Palmer for prescription upon which
he could procure some whisky, Blooming
Grove being a local-option town, This
the doctor refused, as the man was al
ready drunk, and he became very abusive.
The doctor finally started toward him,
after having previously eXpostulated
with him in vain several times, when Mr..
Palmer came in ahead Of him,
caught Ainsworth by the Shout
ders and thrust him out OF the
door without in the .east injuring him,
however.
In spite of orders to the contrary,
Ainsworth returned. AS he entered the
door Mr.. Palmer slapped him, when the
desperate slapped at him, cutting him
almost in two. Mr.. Palmer fell to the
floor and the rufian ran away, closely
pursued by the victims brother, DR..
Palmer, but he succeeded in making good
his escape. He first ran towards the
DOCTORS horse which was hitched much
nearer than his own, but scared the AMI
NAL and it broke away, so that neither he
nor the doctor could get him. Both pur-
surer and pursued then made the race on
foot, until at last he eluded the chase
Mr.. Palmer was promptly attended to, and
it was found that fearful cash seven and
half inches long aud very deep had beer
inflicted on his left side, between two
ribs. At last accounts he was in a coma
tose state, superinduced by opiates, ant
was not expected 10 live.
