A Rough Time Of 1t.

A little before 10 O'Clock last night
there was lively scene on Alamo
street. 1t seems that ostler In the
employ of Bergstrom & Gray got too
much Of the 20 be joyful" and was put
in the stable to sober off but he would
stay there. Officer Seffel then decided
to run him In but found that he had I'M
dertaken a bigger job than he thought
for, because the man resisted arrest, and
though not very large in statute he was
very muscular. An Alamo street mer-
chant came to aid Setfel but the ostler
hauled of and sent him spinning. Then
a Mexican aud two others aided the
officer, and all tried to put him in a
hack but they couldn't do SO. 1t was
then decided to walk the prisoner to the
bat cave, but he would not 60. Presently
the ostler knocked down the Mexican
and fell on him and Setfel fell upon both.
The men were fortunately not injured
by Seffel's ponderOsity, but when they
got up Seffel was much winded and
hadn't wind enough to blow his whistle
80 he took 1t out and said to the bystand-
ers: "Vill some OF you peoples dot
Whistles blows" and this was done.
Soon after this the ostler.. got Seffe's
finger in his mouth and began che wing
the officer, but he was stopped at the
little game. Further assistance WAS now
seanled and the ostler was taken to Jail.
This morning he was fined $40 for his
fun.

Let US Try II.

One of our energetic business men
has the following excellent suggestion
to offer toward inducing business men
and capitalists to come to San Antonio.
He says:
when distinguished visitors and
business men from other localities visit
San Antonio our merchants and bankers
should take more interest and sho "
them the amount OF general business
done here, by slight glance at their
books and receipts. This would be the
biggest advertisement to our city that
was ever fostered. Allow these business
men to see for themselves that we do
more business yearly than thousands Of
cities In this union Of twice the size of
San Antonio; allow them to see that we
have something more to attract visitors
and capital than the old missions, mill
tary post and natural parks; that we are
self-supporting in every respect, and
can support hundreds OF other needed
industries. When our business advan-
tagas are truly and properly shown up
the capitalists, with their surplus, will
come to stay"

The Captain Went for Them.

Some of the Belknaps have been some
what tardy in their attendance at drill
lately and. at the company meeting on
Monday night. Captain Green spoke out
and gave the laggards "a bit Of his
mind" He pointed out the Importance
OF the Austin drill and the duty Of the
company to maintain the proud distinc-
ton 1t had won, and he declared that
unless the proper number OF members
attended the drill he would not drill
them. The "laggards' acknowledged
their error, promised amendment and all
ended harmoniously.
Chas. Baker Ia expected In from Ten
nessee, and In few days Max Fues will
arrive from Austin.
The company 60 into barracks mex,
Monday, and will continue there until
the drill.

PecoS Street.

Peoos street Is being plowed and
graded by somebody's street forces, but
whether the city's or not, Ia not known,
and that bridge across the San Pedro at
Pecos street is also being built, but no
one knows by whom, or by whose au-
thority. since the mayor told Alder
man Gallagher last Monday that no Or
der for the work had been issued from
his Office.
The street commissioner Is not doing
the work, and the question now is, who
is the charitable individual who is sup
plying the "spuds" and building the
bridge for the city? and that, to, within
less than 100 feet Of the good wagon
bridge now crossing the creek at Belvin
street.

Fun at SissOns.

The landslides on the California and Ore
gon road have hemmed in two passenger
trains at Sissons, having on board between
100 and 200 passengers. The trains were
on the way down from Portland, and have
been Outbound since Sunday. On the
evening of the latter day an attempt was
made to convey the passengers by wagon
TO Dunsmuir, but advices being received
that the stage road from the latter place
south was washed out, it had to be aband-
oned. Owing to the imperfect working OF
the wires but meager information about
the belated travellers has been received by
the railroad officials. They have plenty of
food, however, at Sissons, and on one of
the trains there is a transforming theatri-
cal company that is giving matinees and
nightly performances at Sissons' Hotel. A
temporary stage has been erected in the
dining room, and beneath the shadow of
Mount Shasta the barn-actors are making
more money than they did on their six
weeks tour of Oregon. Everything is be-
ing done to have the track cleared before
the end of the week, and, according to
what Superintendent of Track Curtis said
yesterday, a number OF miners have been
set to work sluicing the debris in several
places. In addition, 700 men are now at
work with pick and shovel.
