A we'll known trail man and ranchero
of Austin, and who has fine ranch in
Mason county, says he does not look for
much Improvement in the price of stock
cattle for year or two years, but thinks
that the great slaughter of cows and
heifers now being generally practiced, to
the exclusion of steers will have its eff
feet in raising prices, and making great
shortage in both steers and COWS. He
does not expect another boom yet, but
thinks bed rock prices have been
reached. The outlook for young Texas
steers depends greatly on the way they
winter in the northwest. He thinks two
year-olds will be what they will want
from us in the northwest, and early
grass beeves will bring good figures.

places, the city OF Pittsburg. While In
that CITY he was the recipient of many
honOrs and favors At that time was
a boy in years but man in stature, and
was employed by the man commandment
of the Allegheny arsenal, Captain Har-
ding. Mrs. Harding and her beautiful
daughter escorted Dickens to the ar
senal and drove them. AT the arsenal

visitor for that reason. When the re-

Now, it happened that in the section
where Dickens was received so warmly
the expression "I'll give you the Dick

and left me. That was my first lecture.
Some years after, when Dickens again
visited America, and was the popular
clown, we met at reception In Chicago,
we got into conversation, and then re-
minded him of our first meeting. lie

and we had hearty laugh over 1t.
Dickens after that treated me cordially

A False Alarm.

The prediction of Virgins that an
earthquake will shake San Antonio from
foundation to turret on September Goth,
is producing no little excitement among
the nervous and hysterioal, and if rumOr
is to be credited, it has caused some
hardened sinners to fall to praying. An
earthquake may visit San Antonio some
day-no spot enjoys an exemption from
such visitstions, but all may be certain
that Mr.. Virgins has no power to fore
tell when an earthquake nor where it
will strike, and the nervous and hyster-
ical may dismiss their fears and sleep
