A new candle has been brought out which extinguishes itself in an hour. This it does by means of tiny extinguisher of tin, which Is fastened in the wax by wires, and which effectually performs its task. It is only neces- sary to remove this diminutive extinguisher when its work is done, and the candle is again ready to burn another hour.

Rich Quartz Near Walnut Grove.

About five miles west of the new Walnut Grove dam a body of quartz about 200 feet square is being pros pected by Ed. Johnson and Waterman, of this place, which, during the past month, has yielded several thousand dollars. The ore was taken out by going down only five feet, and was crushed in hand mortar and banned. The particular streak worked is about b inches wide, and has within it an inch streak of nearly solid gold. The bottom of the hole still shows coarse gold. There are several other streaks of pay ore throughout this mass of quartz, and if any one of them con- tinues down as rich as the surface in- dlcations, there is a big fortune in store for the lucky locators. The dis covery has been kept quiet, but we understand a sale is underway to some Phenix investors. Our reporter saw specimen of the quartz to-day It was thickly sprinkled with the gen. uine stuff.

We believe Il Is pretty well understood
that there Is not great deal OF ''love LOST
between our esteemed contemporaries Of
the San Marcos Times and Kyle Star, re'
presenting tho rival 'clans" OF MeNaughton
and Mcpherson. We notice, however.
that they arc "in tho same boat" In this,
that both proposed publishing the school
reports officially made by Treasurer johnson
to the Board OF County Commissioners,
showing sundry defaloatlons in the school
fund and failure to collect interest on the
proceeds OF the school lands Of tho county,
to the amount OF $4,000, etc., yet both have
failed to publish, and to this date quietly
passed tho matter along as IL nothing were
wrong, or tho people Of the county had
no concern in IT,
The question comes up, why did our
esteemed contemporaries fail to come to
timo with their proposed publiea-
ton of said reports2 Were they ''seon"
and induced TO withhold them from the
public Reader, what think you of such
newspapers?

congregation was large and attentive. and
good behavior prevailed the entire time.
Our citizens fairly won the good will and
appreciation of the ministers aud visiting
brethren from abroad, by their good con-
duct, civil and courteous manners. The
meeting was conducted by the Revs. N,

and Burkett of Pearsall. They are Jealous
and hard workers in the Masters vine
yard, and accomplished great deal of
good here. They are greatly beloved by
our people
Miss Fannie Marshall, sister of Rev. N.
Marshall, presided at the organ and led
the singing. She is an accomplished must
clan, has O fine voice, and sings well. Hen
amiable and gentle manner fairly won the
hearts of all.
There were quite number of visitors
from Dripping Springs and other places
attending the meeting. Some of the more
prominent were DR.. Harrison, w. T. Chap
man, -. Womack, -. Caldwell, and Mr..
Garsetts and family, Pursley aud family
Misses Emma Bell. McCiinton, etc. There
were twenty additions to the church, most
of them by baptism, some by letter.
The Methodist brethren will begin q
camp meeting at this place Friday night
before the first Sunday in August. to con.
tinue ten days, and the Christians will hold
later on, so the camp of Satan is liable to
be broken up.
Old Mr.. James Shelton has been quite

Our Chautauqua.
BY A LATE ARRIVAL.

The first evening we entered the Taber
nacle in the Chautauqua, we were enter
tanned by most delightful series of pho
tographs, which were thrown upon the
sheet with great cearness and beauty. Be-
sides the charming European views and
humorous pictures, San Marcos and her
wonderful river were presented with fdel-
ity and recognized by an enthusiastic aud
fence.
We were much pleased with the San
Marcos Chautauqua. It is useless for any
one to try to underrate this really excellent
work which is going on in onr midst 1t Is
first-class, and must be and is successful.
There is a truly magnificent situation,
pretty grounds and intelligent and progress
sive citizens, ready to continue what they
have begun. As Mr.. Dubose says: "rhe
people of San Marcos will not GllOp
themselves to be disappointed. If one
plan fails another is Immediately project
ed.
On Thursday evening we had the pleas
ure of hearing Prof Rowe's lecture on
s.Wonders, Curiosities and Anecdotes of the
Musical World" This was most interest
ing, particularly the relation of musical in
struments and color-the violin represent
ing pink, the flute blue, the basoon deep
red, etc.
We also enjoyed seeing the pictures Of
curious musical instruments OF savage ma
tons.
That Prof. Rowe colld not only tall,
but could do, was proven later on the occa-
sion of his concert. which contained many
admirable as well as novel features. The
number Of young ladies who performed
creditably on the violin was a surprise 10
