This worthy and highly cultivated
gentleman, who is brother to our
Capt. Van Hall. took leave of his
many warm friends this morning to
return to his old home. Cason, Neva-
da. Col. Hall for several years past
has represented Bancroft's History
Company in Texas. He has gathered
great deal of historical data for Mr..
Bancroft, and Texas should feel great
ly indebted to him for his earnest and
able effort to place Texas in her
proper light in the great Bancroft
Historical works. Col. Hall has en-
deared himself to our people, and his
genial companionship will be greatly
missed by scores of friends.

The purple-leaved plum tprunus pissardi)

Mississippi promising to become very val
liable either as fruit-bearing or ornamental
plant. Silas Miller, the well-kKown horiicul-
turist, in writing TO the Rural World regard
ing the quality Of the fruit, says:
Tho fruit is medium size, say one-inch and q
quarter in diameter, round as a balls dark red.
almost black Quality good and said to be
as near curculio proof as any plum can be.
Both the English end French consider the tree
one of the most valuable ornamental trees re-
ceived for years. in which our American hor-
ticulturists agree. This, in addition to the
good qualities o. the fruit, will make 1t Q ia

Run Over By a Locomotive.

On Saturday last Mr.. l.. P. Field
and his little son Tommy rode into
Bruceville horse back, Mr.. Field got
down off his horse to attend to some
business and left his lite son six
years old sitting on his pony. 1t was
about noon and Missouri Pacific
freight came laundering into the lit
tie village. The engineer gave the
customary whistle and bell ringing.
The pony became frightened and got
beyond the control Of Tommy and
finally threw him upon the track in
front of the engine, he was knocked
unconscious by the fall. The father
seeing the fearful situation of his
helpless little son at the risk of his
own life, reached in front the engine,
but to late to save his little boy, the
great wheels of the engine ran over
both Of his legs, crushing them. The
engineer did all he could to avert the
tragedy. The little boy died Satur-
day night. All that medical skill
could do was done for him. He was
attended by Drs. Witt and Moore of
Eddy, and H. w. Brown of Waco.

How Is This.

correspondence.
How is it that McLennan county
has full list of Democratic standard
bearers, and not one to speak in its
defence. Here we have Mr.. Stump
Ashby, canvassing the entire county,
and not man to meet HIM. DO our
candidates take SO little interest in
Democracy that none of them care to
fight its battle or are none of our can
didates competent to meet this tramp
politician. Where are our candi-
dates for the senate, representatives,,
Judges, and county attorney.

Two Strayed Boys.

Police officer Mahan found two
little boys wandering about the
streets Saturday night, on question
ing them he found their names to be
Moore and Smythe McElroy. The
eldest, Moore, is aged twelve, and the
other aged five. They had come from
Meridian, where their father and
mother live. Their father being an
employ OF tho Sante Fe railroad COM
pany. The little fellows said they
were on their way to their uncle's,
who lives at Tyler, Texas. They
had beat their way on the railrord
from Meridian to Waco, when they
could, and tramped it when they
could not. They had walked that
evening from South Bosque station,
ON the Cotton Belt to Waco, having
been put Off the, train at that place.
They were tired, hungry and home
less, and had no money. The kind
hearted officer took them to his
home, and telegraphed to their par
ents. Their father came after them
on the first train. The little five
year-old chap did not seam to realize
what he had done, and was evidently
enjoying the sights of the city. He
had been entised from homo by his
elder brother. who has no doubt by
this time been "worken on" by good
parents--but will find some consola-
ton in. being hero among the small
boys of Meridian for some time.
