MASON CITY, To-, Dec. 10.-In the T..
F. Fisher failure, which was noted sew

they have discovered a cunningly de-
vised plot whereby Fisher, Allen ct al.
attempted gigantic swindle of all the
wholesale boot and shoe establishments
who would favor them with credit, but
the sudden attachment of Fishers stock
at Austin has probably broken up the
scheme. His liabilities haye already
reached $4,000, and it is probable they
will reach much higher figure. Fisher
purchased the goods ON from sixty to
ninety days time, and before his bills
were due was to transfer the stock for a
money consideration into third parties
hands. When he made transfer of bis
stock here to M. A. Allen the latter, in
presence of witnesses. turned over in
cash s4,666 to Fisher, who was out on
$500 bail, and was to be tried to-day at
Austin for obtaining goods under false
pretense, but he did not put in an ap-
pearance and the bail was forfeited.

CHURCRILL'S COUP.

Special Cable to the Globe.
LONDON, Dec. 10.-The action of the
government in ordering the reinforce
ment of the garrison at Suakim is re-
garded as a great triumph for Lord
Randolph Churchill, who, together with
his friends, is highly elated thereat.
The kilograms received at the war Office
from Suakim indicate that the Egyptian
cavalry cannot cope successfully with
the Arabs. The enemy'S shell practice
during the recent sortieS was excellent,
and proved to be humiliating surprise
to the Egyptians. who left one dead man
on the field and were obliged to make
second rush under heavy fire to recover
his body. The Pail Mall Gazette. in all
article commenting ON the governments
course with regard to Suakim, declares
that the Arabs, like the Irish, are fight
ing for home rule and are not to be
lightly considered as an enemy. The
German press claim that the troubles in
Zanzibar are directly due to the inca
pacity of the English to deal with the
Mahdi, and unanimously express their
belief that Bismarck is urging Lord
Salisbury to do some decisive work at
Suakim. If this be true, and the En-
glish premier shall acquiesce in the
German chanceIlor's suggestions, the
campaign cannot be terminated short of
the recovery of Khartoum.

The Climate of TEXAS.

The state of Texas has been injured
no httlc by wei meaning but ignc-
rant men, who desiring the seasons
to change, have formulated theories
10 toi THY their wishes. For instance
some have asserted that the rain belt
moves westward seventeen times a
year, Obvious of the fact that if that
were true the rain b l. would
have travelled around the world u
good many times since its creation.
These idle and silly theories have
been industriously circulated by rail
roads aud other corporations and IN
dividuals owning lands west of a
slightly northwest line from the west
ern point of the Gulf of MeXicC-a
line perfoc ly terminate on the
ground by the dissimilArlty of the
grasses upon each side of it. West
of this line, Texas is just like the
ccuutry termed IN the Bible, q Wild
erness. The rains are sll summer
rains; the prairie dogs rep
resent the coney-; the To-
Gusts come 1T times; the mosqu't
species of acacia, fourishes in luxu-
risucc. There the trees produce more
roots than hey do branches.
Ii there were a chain of me untains
running east and west, on the north
ern boundaries Of Texas, this state
would have certain rainfall AS it
is, in the economy OF nature, there have
since lis set;lemen tbeen periodical
drouths. This should be understood
and cepted by the Inhabitants of
Texas, as settled tact, otherwise
there vii! ever be periods of depres-
