The week opened up with continued hot
weather and dull business. Retail dealers
report'the usual dropping off that is IN
variably experienced towards the latter
end of. the month. Wholesale men re-
port a quiet4rade, not only locally, but
from the country towns. This dullness
may be expected to continue until the
cotton picking season begins, when the
usual fall revival will ak6'plaee.
THERE'S no material change in the quo

TERRELL, TEX, July 29,-Some few
persons seemed somewhat excited over a
report that a negro citizen OF TERRELL, jim

receive, the appointment OF postmaster

started as a huge joke, and was intended
only to dampen the ardor of the many
aspirants for the position.

Boomers too Smart for the Soldiers.
CHICAGO, April ia dispath from
Wichita, KS, says: Mayor Barker
arrived here last night from Oklaho-
ma, and reports the soldiers not equal
to the task of keeping the boomers
out. They slip into the country and
conceal themselves so efectually in
the woods that the scouts cannot find
them. Every station on the Santa
Fe road is guarded, and only those
having permits, are allowed to get off
the trains. The Santa Fe has nearly
completed the depot at Guthrie, and
wOrkmen are engaged on the
land office business at Pure
ell. The border is black with
the boomers awaiting the opening
of the country; many Of them are in
very destitute circumstances. The
Santa Fe people say that arrange
ments have been made to transport
those who apply, and the Rock Island
is preparing to run line of stages
from it's southern terminus into the
territory. Two immense RATS are be-
ing constructed here for the trans
portation of HIPS colony; they expect
to float down the Arkansas, as the re-
cent rains have swollen the river and
they can land within seven miles of
the Oklahoma border. The others
have arranged for relays of
fast horses which are expect
ed to transport them to the
claims already chosen. Every south
bound train arriving here is crowded
and the wagon caravans are passing
in an endless train.
Capt. Woods, one of the Goth U. S.
cavalry, whose troops are guarding the
territory from invasion at this place,
is said to favor the mayors plan.
Thus far, however, he has rigidly ell
forced his orders from headquarters,
and as result there is not boomer
wagon within mile and half of the
line. A few men have attempted to
evade the patrol but in every instance
they were Overhauled and brought
back.

San Antonio Take Notice {!

Judge Thayer, of the United States
district court, of st. Louis, decides
that the taking of a package of papers
from the top of United States mail
box is no offence against the boxes.
That the top of ANAL box is not a re-
ceptacle for mail, and that package
placed there is no more in the custo-
dy of the mail than it would be if
placed upon the postotfice steps.
Parties in this city who have been in
the habit of putting packages on the
mail boxes will take note that these
packages are placed there at their
own risk, and that Uncle Sam is not
responsible for them.
