were on the ground immediately stopped

strikers erected a large cross or death

the mine as a sign that the shaft was dead
But they were mistaken, for about sixty

Special Telegram to the Statesman.
LLANo, May 2.-The late rains have
caused a big "boom" in the Llano and
Colorado rivers. The stages from Mason
and Burnet, are waterbound. Several
narrow escapes from drowning are re-
ported. Two men on Saturday last paid
so each to BE- taken across the Colorado
river, at Button, IN a skiff.
That "mysteriQus corps" of surveyors
will be here ia few days, and locate the
line from this place TO Lampasas. The
preliminary survey made sometime since
demonstrated the truth of what our people
have all the time conterded for, that is,
that a road can be built from here to
Lanpasas, comparatively cheap.
1t is now put down among the certain
ties that the Austin and Northwestern
road will be extended to Llano during the
summer. Consequently, the real estate
market is firm, and even the goat
ranches" in San Saba county have en-
HANGED few cents per acre since the pros
PEGS for a road to Llano have increased.
We learn without any marked degree of
surprise, however, that the Santa Fe
people have decided not to extend tap
INTO the lime hills and barren ridges of
San Saba county, but rather prefer to
build to the iron mountains of LlanO. In
fact about the only reasonable excuse a
railroad company cOuld make for build
ing a road through that county would be
that they had to do so in order to get in
to the rich mineral belt of this county.
The drill in Honey creek cove is down

small veins of coal have been passed

Mr.. Fred A. Wright is now in Mexico
experimenting the opeNing up of the
coal mines of that region belonging tn
Geo. NJ. Wakefield g. Co. From the

pany will need coal and coke in their
business in this county between now and

No single disease has entailed more suffering

influence. The poison it distributes throughout
the system attacks every vital force, and breaks up
the most robust of constitutions Ignored, be-
ause but little understood, by most physicians,
impOtentIy assaed BY quackg la! and Galatians,
relieved of it this side of the grave. 1t is time
then that the popular treatment Of
this terrible disease by remedies within the reach
Of all, passed into hands at once competent and
trustworthy. The new and hitherto untried
method adopted by Dr. Sanford in the preparation
of his RADICAL CURE has won the hearty approval
of thousands 1t is instantaneous in atfording re-
lie in I'll head colds, sneezing, snultling and OBJ
