Murderer Sentenced to Death Makes His Es-
caDe-Preparing for the Reunion.
Special to the Gazette.
SULPHUR SPRINGS, TEX, Aug. 12.-
This town is IN a fever of excitement over
jail delivery made last night. w. c..
shulze, under death sentence for the
murder of the King family in Titus
county last year, and sent here for safe
keeping, escaped from jail last night.
The particulars Of his escape are about
as follows: Shulze and other prisoners
were confined in cells on the lower
floor, but they were allowed to stay out
in the corridor during the day
except when the jailer enters to take
them their meals, water, etc. In this
corridor is wash basin attached TO the
bars, a few feet from the floor. A towel
had been thrown over this wash basina,
hanging to the floor, and behind TIM.
towel under the basin Shulze had secreted'
himself. Jailer Wood, supposing all the
prisoners were in the cells, locked them
and entered the corridor. The prisoners
in the cell asked for a fresh bucket
of water, which Jailer Wood
went after, leaving his little son,
W hdO pei SOdL IOtIONIiS
him, standing in front of the door. The
prisoners called the boy around to
window, so they could see the goat This
was Shuttle IS golden opportunity, and
he was not found mapping. He stole out
and around behind the vault. Jailer'
Wood returned with the water, locked
the corridor and went out, locking the
outer door. With spoon and a
bucket bail Shulze dug through
the brick wall and made good his,
escape. 1t is thought that Shulze
was seen on the East Line railroad, few
miles west of town, about CLOCK this
morning, but up to this hour nothing more
has been heard of him, though the sheriff
and posse are out in pursuit. He is
young man twenty-five years of age,
weighs 135 pounds. and is something over
FIVE feet high. 1t is generally believed
that he will be recaptured.
Preparations are about all made for
the ex-Confederate reunion of the l4th
and 18th, and 20, 900 people are expected.
Over one hundred muttons, fortY-five
beeyes and twenty hogs are on the
ground, and people are wiring for ac-
commodatiOns. Badges have been

The Fort Worth GAZETTE IS urging
farmers to raise hogs to eat the surplus
corn instead of selling it at very low
price. There will be many thousand
bushels of surplus corn i'll the Abilene

~ Mr.. j d. Farmer, a leading farmer
and stockraiser in this county in, CONVEX
sation with a GAZETTE reporter yester-
day, talking of stock generally, stated
that his brother and himself had raised
hogs in this county for years and had
met with the greatest success.

own and some to sell my neighbors on

with it, and have cured my meat by the
old fashion sailing and smoking process.
l find that meat cured by that process
much sweeter and superior in every par
ticular to the meat that is shipped in
here from the North. / have
now 100 fine, fat hogs on
nv place and intend to make
all my bacon and lard
next winter. l have now at home
canned meats that are as good, If not
better, as can be had anywhere. 1 find
by sad experience in cattle that for the
capital invested that there is more in hogs
than there is in cattle. 1 am surprised
that the farmers in the state do not raise
their own hogs and make their own
bacon. have been offered within the

find that they all do well, but [ am in
clined to the opinion that cross between
the Berkshire and the Poland China is
the best. The Berkshire is the best rus
tier that can be found, and the Poland
China is one of the best fesh-producers
to be found. The cross paTtakes of the
good qualities of both and none of the
bad, if they have any bad qualities, and
are easily fattened.
''What feed is the best for them?''
Charley and corn soaked, think, is
superior to all other. 1t natures hog

anything else have tried. THE GAZETTE
is right in agitating this question, and

There are a number of farmers IN my
neighborhood who are now hunting
pigs to feed their surplus to-a number

want to sell. 1 viii feed my surplus

The remarks of Mr.. Farmer is the
truth and if other farmers would profit
by his experience it would be money in
their pocket every year. If any man
who feels interested in this subject will
go to a wholesale grocery dealer and
learn how much bacon and lard he re-
ceives annually from the North he will
be surprised at the figures that are given

Because of the appearance of splenic
fever IN the Indian Territory the Kansas
people want to quarantine against the
whole of that territory and Texas-a
rash and useless notion The es-
tablished Clever line'' which ex-
4empts the western part of the Terri
story and all of Northwest Texas and the
Panhandle from quarantine restrictions,
leaves the matter perfectly safe.
The fact that cattle north OF this
line take this fever on exposure proves
their inability to communicate it to cat
tie located further north. To reiterate
in the interest of education: Cattle that
throw off the fever germs, or impart the
disease, are themselves perfectly healthy,
perfectly free of it and cannot take it;
and cattle that are sick with it have got
ten it from those healthy cattle and can
not, under any circumstances, again I'M
part the disease. Kansas has in opera
ton quarantine against the admission
of cate south of the line, and while that
is enforced is in no danger, and she has
no right to display ignorance in the fix
ing of arbitrary rules of her own.

The cattle market this season got
down to bedrock, and prices could go no
lower, and since the bottom was reached
there has been now and then a little
squirt that would take prices up 10 and
sometimes % cents on the hundred. Then
a rush of half fatted, trashy cattle from
the Southwest, Texas in particular,
would take place, and down to bedrock
prices would go again. Then there
would be another upward movement and
good cattle would make another advance
of % cents, and then down they would
go again. This kind OF work may win
after while. 1t may be like boy jump
ing-not going his farthest at first, but
gradually gaining strength at each sue
cessive effort. This would undoubtedly
be the result if no obstacles were
to be encountered, but just so
long as the obstable of a market filled
with a low grade of cattle is to be found
the jumping of the market towards
higher prices will not gam much. Let
the poor cattle be kept back and by so
doing let Gamers be compelled to pur-
chase good stock or none, and then re-
action will take place that will send
thrill of JOY through the heart of every
cattleman ingthe country.

For twenty years the United States
was one of the largest importers of short
horn cattle in the world, but such is far
from the case now For two or three
years these importations have been
rapidly falling off and during the present
year there has not been imported to this
country a single animal of this breed.
During last year Great Britain exported
sos registered short horns, of which
number COZ went to South America.
This fact is shame to North America,
one of the best cattle raising countries in
the world. And if is a significant fact.
1t shows the sluggishness of beef cattle
breeding here and the great boom which
the same kind of breeding is receiving at
the hands of our Southern neighbors.
North America should supply South
America with her blooded cattle.
