Remarkably Fast Time.

Much has been said about fast time be-
tween the West and the East, but we have
Gently been made aware Of an arrange.
ment which puts entirely in the shade the
time heretofo made from st. Louis to
New York. The Vaudalla Line, In con-
nection with the Pennsylvania railroad,
has so arranged Its schedule that the run
from st. Louis TO New York city 10 made
In thrty-four hours and a halt, or nearly
i've hours quicker than the old time, This
line is by far the shortest between the
points named tover one hundred miles
shorter than its shortest competitor)
which allows the run to be made In this
time at perfectly safe rate of speed,
The track aud equipment have world
WIDE reputation as beng drst-class In
every particular. 1t is the only line run
ming through car from st. Louis to New
York leaving ST. Louis 10 the morning,
aud on the evening train a magnificent
Oullman Palace Buffet car which runs
through without change. We have al
ways found this line TO be a pleasant one,
and by IL have never missed connections
at intermediate points, as its trains seem
to be run solid between st. Louis and
New York. We advise our friends TO try
IL.
II you want any definite information
regarding it, would suggest you drop q
line 10 II, A. Ford, general passenger
agent, st. Louis, or to Thos. III. Thorn,
Southwestern passenger agent, Dallas,
Texas, either OF whom is always glad TO
answer questions and to send maps, etc.

HAROLD, TEX, Aug. 24.-News reached
here early this morning Of murder most
foul having been committed eight miles
northeast OF here on China creek. 1t
seems that W. X. Billiard, farmer living
on his farm alone, had retired early and
during the night some unknown party or
parties shot and literally riddled the I'M
fortunate man with bullets while he was
asleep on his bed. The deceased was a
brother Of the man Ballard who was shot
and instantly killed by the ranger McMur-
ray here last winter. jury Of inquest
have gone TO view the remains, but up to
this hour your correspondent Is unable to
give their verdict. There is no clew as
to who the cold-blooded murderers are.

STRIKING BACK.
The Milwaukee Brewers Seem TO Want 80
Fight tho Knights of Labor.

Fight tho Knights of Labor.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, Aug, PA new
phase in the brewers boycott was de-
veloped yesterday when the Best
Brewing company issued notice on the
Gambrinus assembly, knights of Labor,
that unless the boycott declared against
the brewery was ordered off before Fri
day next, the company would discharge
every knight in its employ. The boycott
commenced some weeks ego. Previously
the assembly had made demand on
the brewers to discharge certain work
men to the number of twenty altogether,
who were either members of the Central
Labor union or non-union men. This de
mand WAS refused. Then followed the
boycott against Best's, Falk's, the Gettei-
mans aud MIXERS br2weries. Little at
tention was paid to the boycott at first,
which led to further forts ON the part OF
the Knights of Labor to make 1t success
Cards were procured and posted up in
conspicuous places, and all arts Of per-
suasion were used to prevent the saloon
lists from purchasing beer from the boy
cotted breweres. Now the breweries are
beginning to strike back. 1t is
customary in the brewerles to issue to
the Workmen so many tickets day.
Each is good for glass Of beer at the
Brewery saloon, This is done TO prevent
the constant drinking which would be In
dulged in II some such check was not i'm
posed. Friday the Best company abol-
ished the cleck system, and gave money
Instead, whereby the men could purchase
their beer as they wanted. at the same
time the company began system OF dis.
elimination by giving no money to the
members Of Gambrinus assembly, which
Is backing the boycott. This was NOT
very well received, but the company per.
sisted, and followed their action up by
| yesterdays notice. AS the brewery EN-.
| ploys about five or six hundred men, and
its lead will be followed by other boy,
cotted concerns, It is quite likely that a
thousand or more men will be looking
for employment Friday night, unless the
knights OF Labor back down The brew.
cries are in good shape to carry out their
threats, as the Central Labor union mas
denounce ed the boycott as unjust. IL
case the Knights are discharged unior
men will be put in their places, II looks
very much now as though the brewers
are engaged in a much more bitter strug
gle than they engaged In early 10 May.
