WELLS ON THE PAsrCREs.
Texas Cattle Men Take Time By The

Texas Cattle Men Take Time By The
 FOreloek and Prepare for Brought.
 CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex, June 13.-Cattle men in this section profting by dear experi- ence resulting from the recent disastrous drought have organized an association with 8 common fund for the purpose of sinking wells at regular intervals on the vast pastures west of here. The undertaking is gigantic, but the value of such wells can be estimated at millions of dollars. A dozen wells have age depth of forty feet. As the diggers get farther west it is calculated that artesian wells will have to be sunk. Leading cattle and sheep men of this section regard it as only @ question of 8 few years before the great fiocks and herds in Presidio and far western Texas will be watered at artesian wells.
 Fine Trip on the Messenger.
 It was a hard Sunday yesterday for party of twenty odd living in the vicinity of Park street and Howard avenue. The difficulty lay in the proper observance of the Sabbath. They all wanted to get together and talk over the delights of their experience on Saturday. A number of neighbors who have been par ticularly jolly in their social intercourse the past season assembled for day with Captain Foster on the steamer Messenger. The start was made from Belle dock about nine. They cruised along the east side of the harbor into Morris Cove, by the old light, around into East Haven river, inspected Short and Dou- ble beaches, rounded in and out among the Thimbles and landed at Frink's Hotel, Stony Greek, shortly after eleven. Roller skating and dancing in the pavilion and drive whist in the parlor kept the party busy until one, when dinner was served in Frink's best style. At 330 the party re-embarked, went down and landed at Sachenns Head and then sailed over nearly to Faulkner's Island. Heading homeward stops were made at Pine Orchard and Pot Island. The staunch little craft, while rolling gracefully from the swell pre- ceding the southeaster, was as dry as bone, and two hours of song by moonlight wound up the trip. The party rendered unani nous vote of thanks to Captain Foster the most accommodating skipper on record and endorsed the sentiment of the steamboat inspectors that the Messenger s'is the biggest boat of her size afioat'

Aggressive Action Taken Against the
 Confirmation of Matthews.
 WASHINGTON, June 13.-The Colored Re- publican League of Albany, under the lead ership of W. H. Johnson, have come out in a pamphlet opposing the confirmation of J. 0. Matthews as recorder of deeds at Washing ton. They charge "boss" dictation, offensive partisan acts, intimidation, bribery, etc. These general charges, it seems by the pamphlet, were forwarded to the Senate committee on the District and a reply from MT. Riddleberger, of the subcommittee, ask ed for specifications. In answer to this MT. Johnson charged corruption at the polls of the Eleventh ward in Albany. Several names of witnesses were given. Johnson went on to charge that Matthews had made several attempts to buy his influence with the colored vote during the candidacy of Mir. Nolan for Mayor, but that he had treated the propositions with contempt. In response to this a telegram came from Sergeant at-Arms Canady of the Senate informing Johnson that the persons he had named as witnesses, viz. ., Matthew Cook, E. J. Robinson, w. H. Ham ilton, W. B. Gailor, Sam Branan and John Palmer, had been summoned to appear be- fore the committee at Washington. The pamphlet does not recite any further facts in the case, but closes with a copy of the resolutions passed by the Colored league against the confirmation of Matthews.

A TERRIBLE RIOT AT SLIGO.
Infur1ated Catholics on a Mad Tour of
 Destruction.

1nfur1ate0 Catholics on a MI a0 TOUT or
 Destruction.
 SLIGO, June 13.-A terrible riot occurred here on Saturday during which several houses occupied by Protestants were wrecked and many people injured. The Catholics mad dened by the violent acts of the Orangemen at Belfast began crusade against Protes- tants. The residences of some of the leading Orangemen here were burned to the ground. The military charged the mob, which fought desperately Several of the rioters were shot, Several extra police have been sworn and with the assistance of the military the constabulary have since been able to preserve order The riot is alleged to have originated from the anger of the Catholics over the destruction of the railing surrounding the bishops palace. No one could tell who committed the act of vandalism but it was at once ascribed to the Orangemen and thousands of Catholics at once assembled and began an attack upon the persons and property of Orangemen. The riot act was read, but it was not needed and it was only when the military poured vol ley into the mob that it desisted from it's ] work of destruction.

They lived together but few weeks when she was compelled to leave him by reason of his cruelty. She took refuge in the house of Emma Mercy on West Ohio street. Friday Bishop, learning that his wife was at that place, made three or four endeavors to see her, but without avail. Learning later that the Mercy woman had concealed his wife un- der her bed he visited the house about yesterday mol ming and going in discovered his wife He asked her if she was going to live with him again and she replied that he had treated her so meanly she could not do so.

Nor vile whipped out his pocketknife and stabbed Goddard three times in the breast and abdomen, then he ran away and Goddard after pursuing few steps fell in the road. There was no one present to witness the tragedy except the families of the two men, Norville fled the county and is being pur- sued by the sheriff and posse.

TEN MONTHS IN mAOHoUsE.

An Aged Physician,s Awful Experi-
 euee in a Lunat1e Asylum.
 INDIANAPOLIS, June 13.--Something more than year ago the friends of Dr. A. J. Houghton, an old physician of Knox county, advised him to go to private insane hospi- tai in New York for rest and reouperation, which they attributed to mental alteration, and he left for that purpose. When he reached Buffalo it is alleged that he became violent and was thrown into jail and finally tried before lunacy commission and sent to the public asylum. Here he remained ten months, during which time he says he was brutally used, kept in close confinement, beaten often, knocked down time and again by burly attendants and all but killed. He was undoubtedly not of sound mind, so some of his friends say, and the attendants regard ed him as dangerous. About month ago Superintendent Andrews of the Buffalo asy- lum notified Superintendent Fletcher that Houghton would be sent to the Indiana hos pital and Fletcher was urged to guard him as he was dangerous. Two attendants ae- companied Houghton from Buffalo, each afraid of him. Since his arrival here, how ever, the patient if ever dangerous man has SnOWn a FSnldEkaDle recovery. ne uaS gwen no evidence of violence and Dr. Fletcher has given him the privilege of the grounds, has permitted him to come to the city and do much as he pleased. Friday he began habe- as corpus proceedings for his release and as soon the papers were served upon Dr. Fletcher Houghton was released and left yes terday for home.
 BUFFALO, June 13.-Dr. Andrews, super intendent of the Buffalo asylum, speaking tonight on the subject of Mir. Houghton's all legged maltreatment at the Buffalo insane asylum, said Houghton was suffering from violent acute mania and on one occasion at tempted to kill keeper with bread knife. An insane negro was an accomplice in this transaction. The negro threw pepper into the keepers eyes, after which Houghton made dash at his femoral artery. A big rent was left in the mans trousers, but the other keepers saved his life. Dr. Andrews denied, that Houghton was ever maltreated during his stay at the asylum.
