small town a few miles south of here
about $50 o'clock last night William
Blakely. IS wears old, WAS shot and killed

Young Blakely had accompanied to
church Miss Annie Estes, the l6-year-old
daughter OF Peter Estes, farmer living
near Wallace and the sister of William
Estes. The father and brother had both
objected to the girl keeping company with
the youth, and about three weeks ago the
girl was SO severely reprimanded that she
left home, living with a friend in town.
In the meantime Blakely continued
to pay her attention.
Last night the girls father went to her
after church and insisted on her going, not
with Blakely, but with him. She refused
to do So Young Blakely tried to induce
her to go home with her fathqr
The self-willed girl told Blakely that she
had accompanied him to church and would
return with him. The two accordingly
left the church accompanied by young
lady friend.
The trio had not gone more than a dozen
steps when they met William Estes, who
Immediately drew a revolver and shot
Blakely, the ball entering just below his
lips and lodging in the back of his head
Peter Blakely, the father then com
menced firing at Blakely who by this time
had drawn his revolver. Blakely turned
and shot at the girls father, but missed
him.
The old man then shot Blakelv in the
head, and the young man stepped forward,
and, placing his pistol against the side of
his head, shot him dead
Father and son have both been arrested
and will be brought TO this city tomorrow
Blakely was OF n splendid family, but
the father objected to his daughter keep
ing company with him on SeveraI '-ronnds

Solomon Saws ofr Wise Woman.
"She perceiveth that her merchan-
else is good" Then those must be
wise women who buy their house
hold furnishing goods at Wolfson's,
for he sells better goods, in greater
variety and more of them for less
money than are offered anywhere in
the southwest. From paper of pins,
to the best bed room and parlor sets
shown in this market; from a plain
napkin to the latest kink in fancy
towellings and table damask; from
simple roller curtain to the finest
lace; you can get "good merchan-
disc at Wolson's, and at prices,
every day, that are lower than those
offered by the advertisers of special
bargains. The ladies who buy at
Wolfson's know this but this state
ment is made for the benefit of those
who are not familiar with his prices.

That is just what the fashionable
lady did who bought her hosiery at
Wolfson's, and she said that she had
not seen such perfect love of stock
ing at anything like that figure since
she had left New York. Nothing
shapes the ends of being like well-fit-
ting hosiery, and it is no longer neces-
s arv to pay fancy prices for the most
s tvlish articles. Try Wolfson's and be
a stonished at the very low figures he
will give you on ladies' and misses
hosiery, the very best, and in variety
never before seen in San Antonio. Ut

Does Excitement Shorten Life
From the Scientific American.


Whoever have studiad mans earthly ten
ure and the causes which tend to lengthen
or curtail it, will have scarcely failed to
notice how contradictory is the evidence of
those we naturally look to to explain them,
and that their evidence, even when they
agree, does not always accord with what
would seem to be the facts as they appear
around us. One authority says general
physical development is necessary to pro-
long life, while another insists this is not
required if the days employment does not
call for physical exertion. DIR. D. B. Rich
ardson, an eminent English authority, de-
clares, among many obvious, though
scarcely novel, propositions, that every
thing that quickens the action of
the heart, any kind OF excitement,
taxes and reduces the storage of life Ii
this were said of those naturally feeble or
inheriting disease or even of those leading
Sc .entary lives and living from day to day
without the invigorating benefits of fresh
air and exercise, it would seem reasonable,
for one does not have to be a skillful physi-
ologlst to know that excitement affects the
nerves as well as the heart. But is the
statement strictly true when referring, as
here, to the entire human fomily? Surely
soldiers engaged in actual warfare, and
sailors in peace, as well as war, live among
excitement, besides being VIGOROUSLY adj
dicted to lndulgences as to drinking
and smoking, yet are they long lived.
Statistics snow it and observations
corroborate them. The pension list of the
British army, giving the ages of the bene-
ficiaries, men who have served in all climates
for from twenty to forty years, and ex-
Guiding those pensioned sooner because of
wounds received while in the performance
Of duty" shows that soldiers do not die as
other mea do; so it is with the naval pen
soners of the Greenwich hospital, now
catered over Great Britain because of its
adjustment. In the merchant service to-
day it is no uncommon thing to find man
70 years old in charge of a vessel--a post
requiring activity of body as well as of
mi d. From this 1T would appear that
sound human body can withstand hunger
aud exposure, and even frequent excitement,
If only there is plenty of fresh air and exer-
else of a vigorous kind thrown in.
