A Poo Bah in the Cabinet.

New YORK, March 1.-The Wash
ington correspondent of the Times
telegraphs his paper as follows: This
has been another day of battle over
New York. 1t ends with the Plat
forces on the run for home, defeated
and with no heart at present for a re-
newal of the conflict. Their only con-
ISOLATION is, that Warner Miller HIM
self, will be out of the cabinet as well
as Mr.. Platt. But one of Warner Mil
Ier's friends will be in, and the name
of that friend will probably be Corne-
Illus n. Bliss, chairman of the New
York state republican committee,
president of the New England society,
vice-president of the Union League
club, head of the great wholesale dry
goods firm of Bliss, Fabyan Il Co.,
and director in various banks and
financial enterprises. While Gen.
Harrison has not yet told Mr.. Bliss he
will be member of his cabinet, all
those who ought to be informed, say
he will do so tomorrow, and this is
the way they figure at the cabinet
now. Secretary of state, James G.
Blaine, Secretary of Treasury, VIM.
Window, Secretary of war, Cornelius
n. Bliss, Postmaster General, John
Wanamaker, Attorney General, w.
H. H. Miller, Secretary of navy, Red
field Proctor, Secretary of Interior,

tural department, Thos. w. Palmer.

Then and Now,

In their search for land in former
days, the farmer or the ranchman al
ways looked out for the watered Sec
tions. 1t was true that they paid q
big price for such lands, comparative
ly, but then they had better chance of
success. Even in such cases, however,
they were often out of their reckoning
for the drought came and scattered
their calculations to the wind. 1t was
true they could stand it longer than
their neigh bOrs in the unwatered Sec
tions, but if the drought were of long
duration, they were badly pinched.
Now to the wise men the terms iva
tered" and dry sections" are mean
ingless terms, for they well know that
if water does not run through the
land, it runs underneath it, and by
the assistance of the F. F. Collins
Manufacturing company, of Houston
street, they can, at a reasonable cost,
secure all the water they want. Those
who are wise will call at the office of
the company, have the system practi-
cally explained, ascertain the cost and
terms of it's adoption, and then secure
all the water they need for their cattle
and lands.

1t Was True all the Same.

New YORK, March IAN Ottawa
special says: "After vigorous de-
NAL of the report published in the
Herald, regarding the retirement of
Sir John Macdonald, from the leader
ship of the Canadian government,
and the formation of new cabinet,
under that of Sir Charles Upper, the
government has finally admitted the
accuracy of the report. Sir Charles
Upper has sailed from Havre, and
will arrive in Canada shortly.
1t is now a certainty that immedi-
ately upon his arrival in Ottawa it
will be publicly announced that the
new cabinet will be formed under his
leadership. Sir John Macdonald will
at the close of the present session of
parliament visit England, be raised
to the peerage by her majesty and re-
ceive the appointment of British am
bassadOr to Washington. The caDi-
net minister stated to me that the re-
port was correct, but that the an
nOuncement was premature.

The Old Soldier Rests.

BY military orders Private Mahlon

A MAN DROWNED.
He and His Horses Find a Waterl
Grave In the River.

He and His Horses Find a WaterI
Grave In the River.
A sad accident happened this morn
ing in the river at the rear of the
French building, which resulted in
the death of a man and two horses.
1t seems that Walter Cook, young
man who drives the heavy double
express wagon of the Pacific Express
company was in the habit of water
ing his horses and washing his wag-
on in the river at the foot of Yturri
street, and about nine O'Clock this
morning he went there, as usual,
for that purpose. The river at
this time was much swollen by the
recent rains, and the horses at first
refused to go in. Cook whipped them,
the horses made a plunge and in a few
minutes the horses were swimming in
the river. Cook seemed to realize that
the current of the river was too strong
and endeavored to turn his horses
but could not, and they went SWIM
ming down the river. Cook, however,
held them tightly, and Mr.. Young, of
Fire Company No. ], shouted: Turn
them to the bank wall" wherein
SOOh al" Cdll Y w lts
The animals made a bold swim for
life, especially the Off side horse who
seemed to have more freedom than
his companion, and naturally made
way to the bank. Here they got q
slight Judgement for their forefeet,.
but they were washed away by the
current. Seeing it was hopeless
case a bystander shouted Jump out
and let the horses go.n At this time
Cook was standing on his wagon seat,
over waist high in water, still hold
ing the horses and soon after the,
wagon and horses were seen floating
down the river in the way thai
showed the horses were powerless i'm
current and soon all was over. The
team was stopped in the river on the
south side Of Central gardens and
mOored safely; of course the horses are
dead. AT the present writing Cooks
body has not been recovered.
Cook when drowned wore his heavy
slicker and boots, yet he was reputed
to be a good swimmer, and it is
thought could have saved his life if
he had made efforts in the right direc-
tiOn, but he seemed to have been de-
termined to rescue his team and lost
his life in that attempt.
Cook was % years old ard bears a
good character. He was born in Lon
don, England, and had been in the
city for seven years, during which
time he worked for Carter & Mullaly,
Tom Muldoon, and Johnson, driving
hack. He was an American citizen,
having taken out his papers two years
ago.
The horses drowned were very fine
animals, and it is said were worth
about $500.

Put Up That $4,000.

That an enterprise such as Judge
Miller of Llano and others from
Fredericksburg have been trying to
push through by which San Antonio
will come in direct railroad communi-
cation through all extension of the
Arkansas Pass with one of the
richest sections of Texas should
fail is indeed depIorable, so
far as the Arkansas Pass now eX-
tends is only through that part of the
country that was prior to its cOnstruc-
ton tributary to our city. But this
extension to Llano by way of Freder-
icksburg would bring US in CONNER
cial union with at least 100000 people
who draw their supplies from points
on the Santa Fe, and a tap marrow
guage) running from Austin. While
some of our citizens have contributed
literally, many, very many who have
large landed interest both in San
Antonio and other sections of Texas
have declined. In no other city
of Texas approximately as large as
San Antonio would it have required
over two months to get $4,000 sub
scribed as bonus to such an enter
prise and the excuses offered by some
for not acting in this laudable work is
contemplate. This is not bonus to
the Arkansas Pass railroad, but an aid
to the people of the section Though
which this extension is TO run. 1t is
the right hand of commercial fellow
ship extended to these people, by San
Antonio.
1t will bring thousands upon thous-
ands of dollars and thousands of peO-
pie yearly to our city. These people
will be valuable factors in all matters
in which San Antonio is interested.
Judge Miller Informs US that he
lacks $1,000 of the $50, 900 which is in
dispensable to the carrying forward of
the extension.
