A stylish young woman of twen-
ty-fve, perhaps, arrived from Full
tod at noon. She was on her way
with tour small children to Louis
lana. While waiting at the Union
Depot the charges became scatter
ed and the mother began to have
trouble. AS soon as she would
find one, another of the lively lit
tie rascaIs would be missing. When
her train rolled in, a three year
old was missing and the young wo-
man was nearly distracted. County
Clerk Williams was standing near
and she asked his assistance. The
genial ex-drummer put the lady
and children on the train, told the
conductor not to be in q hurry
about leaving, and then set about
finding the missing child. He was
successful and in a few moments
the numerous family was happily
restored.

LACK OF PROPER RESPECT.

How the Death OF the Emperor william,
YVES Observed at Washington.
Correspondence of the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, March 2O.-There is
considerable dissatisfaction expressed
among the Germans here over the utter
disregard of feeling of certain German
people in diplomatic circles in the pro-
per observance Of the Emperor's death.
1t seems that the German minister, Won
Alvensleben, was recently grecalled and
orders were given for the sale OF his
effects, consisting Of furniture, bric-s-
brac, wines, etc. The sale began en-
Tuesday last, and instead of the German
colors properly draped in mourning,a red
auction flag was flying In front of the
house and the heavy voice of the auction
eer was ringing out the usual monotones
OF "going, going, gone" Wines imported
for the use OF legation, free of duty, were
sold st q song, without payment OF
license. ALI this Was going on while the
grand old monarch Emperor William was
lying cold in death at Berlin surrounded
by weeping and silent nation, whose
love for him knew no bounds. Every
where throughout this country where the
Germans dwelt, reverence WAS being
paid TO his memory, and the German
consulates and embassies in every CITY,
but Washington, were draped in mourn
Ing. The German embassy here was en-
gagged in other business, which naturally
gave rise to great indignation among the
people here OF German birth. 1t is said
the attention of the present Emperor and
the home authorities will be called to
this utter disregard Of sympathy evil
denced in such q cold blooded way.

WOOL GROWERS PETITION.
RE. OF TIKI TAR1RE on

ASKED FOR. ~
Correspondence Of the Gazette. 4
WASHINGTON, March 20.-Mr. TaYl5r
of Ohio introduced in the House to7dky q
petition Of the wool growers of Guernsey
county, Ohio, asking for q re-enactment
Of the tariff of 1867 on wool; also the fol-
lowing petition from the citizens OF
Noble county. in reference to the duty on
wool:
The undersigned, citizens Of the coun-
ty Of Noble and state of Ohio: We re-
specially petition your honorable bodV
for speedy action on the subject of pro-
lection to the wool-growing and WOODEN
manufacturing industries OF this country.
They represent that the changes made by
the act of Congress of March 8, 1888,
reducing protection to these industries,
have already resulted in great injury to
the sheep growing interest, IS well as to
the manufacturing interests, and that il
continued must result in the destruction
to very crest extent of the wool grow
ing industry in all parts of our country
and also largely increase the price OF
mutton to the consumer. They represent
that the number of sheep in the
United States in 1883 was 40, 237,29I Gan
increase of 15,453,69l since 1879, and
which was reduced to 44,759,Sl4 in 1887,
sho wing loss Of All, 977 sheep in four
years, whilst with proper protection the
number, at the same ratio of increase, in
1887 would probably have been about Ca
600, 600. A further effect of this Injurious |
legislation was an enormous increase in |
importation OF foreign wool, both in un-
and manufactured state, |
the latter, to the great loss Of |
our domestic lsboring classes, whether |
on farms or In workshops, and |
yielding an increase in revenue to the
government Of about S4,o0o,00 per an
1um at time when 1t was not needed.
They therefore ask that the schedule of |
iuties unanimously agreed upon by the
representatives of the wool growers and !
WOODEN manufacturers at Washington, on
January II, 1888, may be enacted into q
Az 81 an early day, and, pending the pas

years. A great many stockmen were in
the city who had not been here before in
years, but who in former times we're
familiar objects on the streets. There is
no doubt the close association of Fort
Worth with the great Panhandle Railway,
route particularly favored by stockmen,
will form another bond between the Texas
cattlemen and this city.
