Butterfly in Court.

Natividad CARA, an ugly little Mex
lean woman. evidently q stranger in San
Antonio, was before the Recorder this
morning to answer to the charge of
being drunk and disOrderly. The officer
who arrested her said she came on Mill
tary plaza last night TO get her supper at
a tamale stand, put was too drunk to
know what she was doing. She was
very abusive toward every body, very
noisy, and finally, when the officer ar
rested her, she laid down in the dirt
and screamed and refused to 20.
He carried her to the station house.

like a wildcat. She was dressed this
morning with striped red, white and
blue ribbon, through her raven black
hair, wore low cut basque OF black
velvet, trimmed about the bust with
white lace, and with two bands OF geld
tinsel braid down the front. Her dress
was dirty yellow, trimmed with heavy
fl0unces Of purple and golden beads.
She wore slippers with the usual high

Furious Fury.

Dan Weber, q hack-driver, was fined
So before the Recorder this morning
for interfering with an officer
while the said officer was in the
discharge Of his duty. Officers Smith
and Brown were the principal witnesses
against him and testified that q disturb
ance was being created at Dan Wsbber's
hsrse lot, adjoining his stable On Hous-
ton street, by Mrs. Weber, and
the neighbors sent for an officer.
Smith and Brown responded, but
when Smith started into the
yard to tell Mrs. Weber to be quiet,
Dan Weber seized him BY the collar at
the gate and ted hin to stay out.
Brown came up and both officers then
went in. Mrs. Weber had cut both
horses loose from their stalls, had turned
them out Of the stable and tried to turn
them out Of the yard, but was prevented
from doing SO by one Of the hack-dIiv-
ers. She then took broom and
tried to smash one Of the carriage
lamps, but was prevented from doing SO
by the hack-drivsr, who seized her and
held her until she began upon
him. She then sscureo several
rocks and let them fly at Q lively
rate at all who approached. Officer
Smith received two or three OF these
missiles on his person. She was finally
quieted, and after her parsxysm Of rage
and fury was over, she was completely
prostrated and is now very ill. DIR. +.
W. Johns. her physician, sent note to
this effect to the Recorder this morning,
and finished by saying 1t was his opinion
that she should not be tried before the
Recorder for being disorderly, but should
have do lunatico inquirendo. On mo-
ton of the attorney fer the city, the case
against Mrs. Weber was dismissed.

Industries of the New Soufh.

Northern capital has done much in the
last few years to develop the industries and
resources of the new South. New York and
Philadelphia have not only furnished large
amount Of this capital but have also pro-
vided the principal market for the products
OF many of the Southern manufactures. OF
late, the manufacture Of cotton goods in the
South has made immense strides, until to-
day certain lines of goods in the South
which Southern buyers formerly sought in
Northern markets, are now almost exclu-
sively supplied by the mills in the Carroll
mas, Georgia, Tennessee and Mississippi.
The products of these mills are mainly cot
ton yarns, and the coarser and heavier
grades of unbleached muslins, colored
goods tickings, towels, grain bags, etc. On
account of the abundance of water power.
the proximity of the cotton fields and the
consequent low price of raw material and
cheapness of labor, these goods can be
made to great advantage at the South. The
scarcity of skilled labor, however, has pre-
vented the manufacture of the finer grades
of fabrics, such rs are produced by the best
Northern mills, but some Of the mill own
ers are contemplating the securing of
skilled help and the manufacture OF the
best grades of goods, with view to send
them to Northern markets. The yarns
produced are of very good quality. and
find their principal market in Philadel-
phia. The total spinning industries of the
South are equal to about one-tenth of the
same interests in the North In the one
case the annual consumption of cotton be-
ing about 100000 bales per annum, in the
other about 1000, 0000. Philadelphia capt.
tai has gone into the cotton mills of the
South to great extent. The old school of
Southern planters, who still cling to the
belief that the South can grow rich and
prosperous by 'sising cotton at ten cents
pound and paying the men who labor for
them Sc 4 month and rations, still close
their ears to the din of hammers and the
roar of blast furnaces which are converting
their cotton fields into prosperous truck
farms. But the South is getting away from
this sort OF craftsmanship and that very
quickly.-U. s. Economist
