Railways Coming to Eagle Pass.

The Fort Worth and Rio Grande road
is, as every one knows, pushing con-
struction toward this place. But its
movements will probably be considerably
accelerated by an event that is not so
well known. That event is the COM
mencement of active construction on the
Cattle Trail Road. - Of it the last
issue of the Chicago Railway Age says;
This road is projected to run from
Doan s store on Red river in Wlbarger
county, Tex, through Brady a McCuI-
loch county, to Eagle Pass, Tex, on
the Rio Grande, where connec-
ton will be made with
the Mexican International. Surveys
have been completed from Doan's
Store to Brady, distance of 24O miles,
right of way has been secured for the en-
tire line, and aid has been subscribed to
the amount of $500, 600. - OF course the
Fort Worth and Rio Grande will not per
nit this rival road tic get hold on the
Mexican trade (Which, Window to the
contrary Notwithstanding, will yet rise
from its ashes) in advance without a
struggle. Hence race between these
two roads for the Rio Grande may be an
ticipated. The same paper announces
the purchase of 20 900 cross ties by an
other road which has Eagle Pass for its
goal-the recently organized Texas
Trunk Toed.- FL Paso Guide.

of infidelity, but she denied
the charge. Saturday evening
one OF the neighbors told Brown that the
Mexican was also having criminal rela
tons with his daughter, well-developed
girl of thirteen years. That night after
all had retired Brown got up, took an ak
and dealt the sleeping Mexican three
heavy blows on the left side of the head
knocking out his left eye and
crushing in the skull. Brown left
home at once, not even waiting to get his
coat. The wounded man laid without at
tention until this morning Flies had
blown the places, and screw worms are
working in mis- brain. Brown has not yet
been arrested, and seems to have the
sympathy of his neighbors who seem to
think he dealt with the Mexican as he
deserved.

New YORK, Sept. l6.-The trial of
Henry s Ives was resumed in the gen.
eral sessions court this morning before
Recorder Smythe. Ives was early in his
place and showed no signs of discom-
future because of recent developments
and publications in the past few days
After a brief examination of Assignee
Cromwell, who was appointed
when the firm of H. Ives s.
Co. failed on August II, 1887 j.,
an important witness for prosecution, f.
Wilson Woodruff, confidential secretary
to Ives, and later secretary of the Gin
cinnati, Hamilton and Dayton railroad =,
was called to the witness stand. Ives )
face was a study when Woodruff was
called. His face flushed perceptibly g,
but he made no other sign. Woodruff is
a young man of an unprepossessing face.
He stated he had first become acquainted
with Ives eight years ago, both being
employed as clerks in an advertising
agency. Woodruff s testimony was very
damaging.

PARIS, TEX, Sept. l6.-A messenger
reached the city at a late hour last night
with intelligence of a brutal assault on
Mexican named Peter Gonzales, seven
miles north of here upon Red river.
Sheriff Gum left this morning for the
scene and returned tonight with
the Me xican, whom he brought
here for treatment. 1t seems
that Gonzales went to that
neighborhood last February, and en-
gagged to work for a man named JEFF
Brown. Brown was in poor circum-

For sometime it has been rumored thasl
Gonzales and Mrs. Brown, who is a

thirty years old, were conducting
liaison. Brown accused her

the decisions of the Berlin conference

sui at Apia notified Tamasese that Ger

"SUNDAY EXCEPTFD''

'SUNDAY EXCEPTED
is an acorn which the petitioners for a
national Sunday rest law desire should be
allowed to grow into the wide-spreading
oak of the national Sunday rest law, I'M
der whose shadow, with the president
the loWliest servants of the government
in the mail and military service may also
enjoy the day of rest.
When it is asserted that the movement
to secure law of congress against Sun
day work IN government service is really
an effort of ecclesiastics to unite church
and state, I am accustomed to hold ND
some of the petitions that have been
smutted by the hands of the toilers as
they have signed them while at their
work, as you see in this one from the car
shops at Richmond. In old England the
barons, as you remember, thought it be-
meath them to do such hard work as is
required in education, and so had SER
wants to do both their reading and writ
ing. When servant had written a deed
the baron instead of signing his name
laid the inside of his hand in a plate of
smut and then stamped its picture on the
document, and then turning his hand
stamped his seal ring into the wax. So
originated the term "' Witness nv hand

who call the effort to secure the day of
rest to the toilers, a church and state
movement, uplifting the saw and smut

form, this six day law, witness my hand

hand, and the lecture was listened to
with rapt attention by all present.

AUCKLAND, Sept. 16.-The Tonga
steamer Walnut has brought to this port
the captain and crew of the British ship
Garston, Capt. Davies, from Sydney
New South Wales, for San Francisco,
which foundered in mid ocean. The
shipwrecked sailors were twenty-five
days in an open boat without food or
water. On the twenty-second day the
men, driven to desperation by hunger
and thirst, decided that one of their
number must be sacrificed to save the
lives of the others. They were casting

when they sighted Walls Island. The
