TEXAS CROPS AND WEATHER.

Eestland county has had good rains
and the prospects for fine cotton crop
| are as good as one could wish.
According to the BRENNAN Banner, the
farmers and cotton buyers say that more
cotton has been gathered and marketed
up TO date this year than for CORES
ponding period during any year within
the uasr ten years.
AS a consequence of the frequent show
ers in Cooke county there will be big
cotton crop and plenty Of fresh garden
vegetables before frost.
A great deal of cotton is being market
ed in Sherman, but most of it Is in seed.
Cotton is good in Parker-in some
localities extra fine, others short.
Crops IN the vicinity of Whitney, Hill
county, are not as good as was expected,
owing to the untimely appearance of
both rain and dry weather.
In Smith county owing to the extreme
dry season cotton is opening rapidly and
farmers are making hasty preparations
for gathering the iieecy staple. Both
corn cotton are in better condition
than was thought two weeks ago.
Cotton is fine and opening fast in Mi
y
we We heard of, and il no happenings
occur there will be q fine yield. Our
corn is made and is PLENTIFUL: the potato
crop is abundant.
There is plenty of corn made in Shelby
county to supply all home demands.
The acreage i'll cotton this year is larger
than last year and the yield per acre
will be largely in excess of the last crop.
AUBREY, Aug. 26.-Thls section was
visited by good rain this morning, the
first of any consequence that we have
had since May. 1t will probably add a
considerable top crop on cotton and as
sure good pasturage for stock, which is
very important item, considering the
scarcity of all kinds OF feed. Cotton is
coming in about twenty-five bales day,
and selling at about nine aud one-half
cents pound.
COLORADO, Aug. 27.-The third good
rain within the past two weeks fell here
this morning at an early hour, a regular
trash mover this time. Little or no
damage, however, was done to railways.
Farmers and stockmen are jubilant and
all hearts glad. The first bale of cotton
being ginned here to-day.

ENNIS, TEX, Aug. 27.-At 6:45 this
morning our city was thrown INTO q
fever of excitement by the loud reports
of three gun-shots fred in rapid success
sion in the saloon of T. NJ. Bradley
which was found to be serious affair
The particulars, as near as your reporter
was able to learn, are as follows: On
last evening J. H. Thompson, jeweler
of this place. formerly of Waxahatchie
and Fort Worth, while under the intlu-
ence of liquor at the Bradley saloon had
some words with Bohemian, who
struck him with a bottle, inflioting an
ugly wound on the head. As this junot-
ure Mr.. Bradley, familiarly known as
"Uncle Tom, put the party out of bis
house to preserve order. This morning
sion that it was "Uncle Tom" who
struck him with the bottle the
evening before took his loaded shot
gun and entered the back door Of
"Uncle Toms saloon. Seeing Mr.,
Bradley, who was alone in the saloon
raised his gun, saying: "You -
- and fired, but missed his aim.
Mr.. Bradley gathered his gun, which
was sitting near, and it failed fire.
Thompson fired the second shot, putting
eight buckshot in the chest of "Uncls
Tom" Six of these have been ex-
tracted, two the doctors failed to find.
1t is believed, however, that Mr.. Brad
ley's position at the time of the shot will
save his life. The two bullets not found
it is hoped, did not enter the cavity.
Mr.. Bradley has q good reputation as
peaceable, quiet citizen, and is es-
pecially noted for the order he Kept in
his saloon.
Mr.. Thompson, aside from his sprees,
is quiet and gentlemanly, and has q nice
family. Mr.. Thompson was captured
about one and half miles from town
making his way on foot in the direction
of Waxahachie, where he stated he was
going to give himself over to the sheriff
His examining trial il now going on, and
so far tends to show premsditation on his
part.
