PEcos CITY, TEX, May 2.-Various

principally home people taking frmer
hold upon fortune, by securing lands
close to the town at low prices before it
is too late. The theorystnat an artesian
well would only irrigate twenty OF forty
acres has been exploded. Of course by
using only the water direct from the well
and not having reservoir or tank, forty
acres would be the limit, but by tsnkiug
the wxter and preserving it, it is safely
estimated that an experienced irrigator
could irrIgate 400 acres without any
trouble snd have fully adequate supply
of water for other uses also.

A CITY WITHOUT FUNDS.

The City Treasurers Defa1catioq Leaves
Cleveland in . Bad Fix.
CLEVELAND, O.. Oct. 25.-There is about
$4,000 belonging to the city deposited in
different banks, but the bondsmen Of
Thomas Axworthy, the defaulting treas
urer, have attached it, and the result 10
that the city is bankrupt. Kaufman
Hayes, member of the council, has been
placed in charge Of the Office and will con-
tinus to act as treasurer until Axworthy's
successor is elected. At present there is
only 5000 in the city's vaults, and when
that is paid out the treasurer's office will
be closed for financial repairs.
The Board of Aldermen, at special
meeting last night, adopted a resolution
declaring the Office OF treasurer vacant
and empowering the mayor to issue notes
of the city to the amount of $500, 200. This
resolution will pass the Board of Council
men Friday, and the money thus provided
will relieve the city's present financial
embarrassment. Rumors to Axwor-
thy's whereabouts are still rife, but it
seems to be settled that he is in Canada.
A special from Montreal gives an inter-
view with Mr.. Geoffren, Q. c., who says
he was consulted by a man about October
l, but that he does not remember the mans
name. The story that Axworthy drank
hard while in Montreal is denied.

Arrival OF . Detachment of Swedes For
LOOMS 4 Snively.
MACON, Mo-, Oct. 25.-Forty more Swedes
from Chicago, in charge Of Lewis LOOMS,
were landed at Bowler yesterday after
noon, and were taken into the stockade
near the depot and will at once be put to
work by LOOMS & Snively in mine No. 1,
where the men brought there when Gen.
eral Jamison was at Bevier are working.
Sheriff Draper came down from Bevier and
met the men at Macon and returned with
them. The striking miners, not knowing
the new men were coming, there were
few of them at the depot, but crowd
soon gathered there, though the new
men were not molested. A number q
the other Swedes in mine No. 4 came up
cut OF the mine into the stockade and told
the men it was good place to work and
fair wages were made by them. Soon
afterwards quite a number of the Swedes
who arrived yesterday went out of the
stockade into the street, and then some of
the striking miners talked with them and
told them of their circumstances, condition
and efforts of the strike, in manner having
. tendency to discourage them from going
to work, but the new Swedes paid more
attention to those who are now working
for LOOMS & Snively. and will go to
work. Sheriff Draper and Deputy CLARK
are both there on duty now.

Night-Hundreds Slain in the Streets of

PANAMA, Oct. 25.-Advices received by
the steamer Moselle, which arrived at
Aspinwall on the 10th inst. from Hayti,
state that never before had Port au Prince
passed such night as that of September
Is. The night, to begin with, was dread
fully dark, the heavens being mass Of
dark clouds, with an occasional flash Of
lightning. Revolution was abroad.
The firing commenced at 1880 p. M,
and the cannon and Gatling guns
Of the palace did dreadful execution,
as did also the shots from the big guns
on Fort Alexander, which crashed clear
through the buildings, destroying every
thing and everybody with which they
came in contact. The firing lasted up to
two a. m. of the 10Th. These advices say
that as far as had been ascertained 300
persons were killed and over 500 wounded,
including many women and children.
Among the notable persons killed, besides
General Seide Tilequmag, were NM.
Quartzo, Ducammo and Ducassez.

Tho Kansas City Crook Turns Up Slick
Swfndler Under an Assumed Name in
Baltimore.
BALTIMORE. Nd, Oct 25.-Two weeks
ago, when the interest IN the Whitechapel
woman murders in London was at it's
height. the Sun published series of arti-
cies from the pen of a writer signing HIM
self w alter A. McNulty, which produced
widespread comment Cor the ingenuity OF
the analysis and the bright style. The
writer was q stranger in Baltimore and
was stopping at BaInum's Hotel, and an
eminent physician whose attention was
drawn to the articles in question invited
the writer to call upon him.
He did SO and the doctor was charmed
by McNulty's fine conversational powers.
The following Monday McNulty went in
great haste to the doctors house and asked
him to identify him at some bank, as he
had draft on Rand & McNally, of Cnica-
go, for $3.50, which he desired to have
cashed in time to catch the 1:45 train for
Washington. The doctor drove him to the
Union National Bank, where he identified
McNulty and Endorsed the draft. Nc
Nulty got the money and the doctor drove
him to the union station, where the two
parted, McNulty profuse in his thanks.
The next day the doctor got to thinking.
and made some inquiries. At Barnum's
he found the literary sharper had left an
empty satchel and an unpaid board bill,
and last Thursday the bank notified him
that the draft was bogus. The matter
was put in the hands of the police, and
they have received word from Pittsburgh
that McNulty is Orth Stein, the notorious
Kansas City newspaper man and MUIR
derer, who was arrested in that city and
sent to Jail for four months for forgery
and had left Pittsburgh Jail four weeks
ago. The letter said he was wanted in
San Francisco. From Cincinnati the po-
lice wrote that McNulty was Orth Stein,
alias John Armsted, and was q well
known check worker.

Living on the Reputation Of Others.

"Take everything that have but my
good name; leave me that and / am con-
tent" So said the philosopher. So say all
manufacturers Of genuine articles to that
horde of imitators which thrives upon the
reputation Of others. The good name Of
ALLCoCK's Porous PLAsTERs has induce<
many adventures to put in the market inn
itations that are not only lacking in the
hest elements Of tho genuine article, but
are often harmful in their effects
The public should be on their guard
against these frauds, and, when an exter-
nal remedy is needed, be sure to insist upon
having ALLCoCK's Porous PLASTER.

DR.. Sherman named his great remedy
Prickly Ash BITTERs; but it is presumed
that at that time all remedies for the blood,
ETC., were called Bitters. Had he called it
Priclkly Ash "Regulator," Curative" or
almost anything but Bitters, it undoubtedly
would have superseded all other prepare
tions Of similar character. The name Bit
tiers is misleading; it is purely q medicine,
and can not be used as beverage.
