do not believe there has been lot of
imported cattle in radius of fifty miles,
except mine, that has not had the fever,
and 1 have not heard of any except
Maj. Erskine who have not lost heavily.
Why have not my cattle had it? Some,
if not all, have taken just as good care
and given as much attention as l have.
II is possible, and some tell me it is prob
able, that with the warm weather my
cattle will come down, but if every other
herd has had it in the winter why has it
not come here?
AS to DIR. Paquin 3 theory, 1 leave
that for him to explain. This expert
menting was his, made for him, and re-
ports regularly made to him OF the con-
dition of the cattle, their daily tempera-
ture, etc. If he is correct, the discovery
is worth millions to the West; if not cor
rect, 1 am satisfied he will keep@at it
until he gets there. c. D. FOOTE.

Rev. Dixie Williams.

The first of a series of revival sermons
was preached last night by Evangelist
Williams to an audience of over 1000.
The skating rink has been fitted up with
comfortable seats for at least 1000 peo-
pie, and these have been arranged in
sections in front so that seekers may be
classified and approached conveniently.
While the Christians of the city were
somewhat tardy at first Maj. Williams
is well pleased with the unanimity and
spirit with which they are joining in, and
the meeting has excellent prospects
ahead of it. The pastors of the city are
on hand and working zealously as in
structed by the evangelist. His text was
a single word "Tekel," which he I'M
derstood meant "weighed and found
wanting.
AT least 200 persons arose to be prayed
for and vast multitude of Christians
stood and pledged themselves TO put their
shoulders to the wheels of the Gospel
train. It was great meeting at the
outset and the interest is pretty sure TO
increase. The choir, led by Professor
Towner, has 200 voices. An organ, flute
and cornet are used. An interesting
service was held at o'clock this after
noon, the subject of the sermon being,

Express and Railroad Agent in Trouble.

Specialize the Gazette.
BAIRD, TEX. March Is City Marshal
Lane went to Putnam yesterday on the
noon train and arrested J. W. Cheek,
agent of the Texas and Pacific railroad
company and the Pacific express COM
pany, and brought him here on the after
noon train. The safe of the above COM
panies was robbed at Putnam Saturday
night of an amount claimed from $500 TO
$1,000, by the robber forcing an entrance
through the freight warehouse, then
into the ticket office, the lid Of the
agents desk being forced open and the
combination of the safe, among other
papers, being found there. The robber
procured all the money in the safe and
made good his escape, and it followed
that Mr.. Cheek was arrested, charged
with robbing his own safe, the express
company claiming to have lost $500. Mr..
Cheek says he had about $500
of his individual funds in the
safe at the time of the robbery.
After arriving here and finding
the companies representatives not ready
for an examining trial, Mr.. Cheek gave
bond for his appearance at the justice
court next Monday in the sum of $1,000,
Wnlcn ne gave Will ecdFcely an EFFORT,
and could have given bond for $40 900
without difficulty on his reputation as an
upright, honest, good citizen. He IS a
man who has enjoyed the reputation of
being one of Putnam S very best citizens,
and the citizens both of Putnam and
Baird were thunderstruck when they
learned of his arrest, and feel sure he
will certainly exonerate himself of the
grave charge in the examining trial next
Monday.
The part of the money taken that be-
longed to the express company was the
amount with which the agent intended
making his weekly, report, and would
have been forwarded Sunday morning

CURED between two colored walters
named Frank Brown and William RYAN
in the kitchen at the Hotel Peterson this
morning, in which the latter stabbed the
former in the neck. The trouble was
caused by the perniclous system of tip
ping. A guest had, in order to facilitate
movements of the waiter, given Ryan q
quarter that he intended 10 give Brown.
When Brown learned of the way in
which Ryan had obtained money under
false pretenses he proceeded to maui
him. Ryan whipped out a knife and
iabbed it into Browns neck about an
inch. The wound is an ugly, but not
serious one. If it had been an inch fur
Their back IL would have severed the Jug
ular. Ryan was at once arrested for an
assault to murder.

Story of Triple Tradegy in Holland
Village
Albert do Leur Gine-A Thrilling Rsminisc-
ence Of an Execution in Alkmaar-rhe
Wrong Man Executed and tina Judge in
Remorse Commits Suicide

A young woman was found TO have
been cruelty murdered In one OF the
most fashionable residences OF the city
OF Alkmaar. Holland. where she was
employed as a servant. She had been
repeatedly stabbed with a bayonet
found alongside her dead body, and
the ownership OF the weapon was
traced to a private of the Second Regi-
ment of Infantry in garrison at Ak
maar. with the name of Van AS. The
of the crime and sentence OF
death passed upon him by the eldest
Judge upon the criminal bench,
Gerardus van LIAR, a man whose judi
cial pronuncia-mentoes, unalloyed by
mercy, had gained for him the name of
"executioner" from the lower strata
of Alkmaar's populace,
The soldier was an Israelite, and
numbers among his family some of
the most influential and best citizens
of Holland, but, as the laws OF that
country prevent a petition for mercy
In such case TO be presented to the
King if the signature OF the Judge who
sentenced the criminal is wanting, the
soldier died a murderous death on the
gallows. because the old Judge stub
bornly refused TO add his name to the
thousands who Employed King Will
liam's mercy,
Six days after the eXecu ton of the
infantrymau u startling confession was
made by another soldier of the same
regiment, who. broken down by re-
morse and fright. told that he murder
ed the young maiden. and had purloin-
ed the bayonet of his innocent barrack-
mate to divert suspicious eyes IRON
the real culprit.
He proved his own guilt beyond the
possibility of doubt before the Judge
who had sentenced the innocent man to
dishonorable death, and when the jan
itor OF the courthouse opened the
doors OF tho jud icial chamber the fol-
| lowing morning he found that the Hon.
Gerardus van Laar, chief justice OF
Alllmaar, had already appeared before
higher tribunal, where justice and
mercy go hand in hand. The bayouet
which had caused the death OF the in
Docent servant woman had been driven
TO the heart of the mercies5 judge by
the hand which refused 10 sign an in
nocent mans petition for clemency.

everything Is ashore the woman at
once begins the erection of their prlm-
tive hut The men are rarely able to
swim, but the women are without ex-
captions, expert swimmers, and this
together with the constant work at
rowing gives them extraordinary mus
cufar power. To maintain their posi-
tons as lords of creation the men have
recourse to mysterious rites from
which the women are excluded.
Polygamy is practiced to the extent Of
each man usually having two wives
an older and younger one.
Without writing OF any kind, they
yet preserve many rules and customs,
more or less traditional and mainly
relating to the chase. They are good
natured and helpful, not addicted to
lying or theft, but are very tenacious
in the defense OF their rights. They
love long stories and conversations,
and in these good part OF their time
is spent. One of their tales, OF an ex-
traordinarily strong man who was made
of stone, and was ultimately killed by a
thorn entering a vulnerable spot in his
heel, recalls the story OF Achilles. De-
void of all religious ideas and duties,
they Nave a vague idea OF the spirits
OF the departed wandering about in the
world, and as greatly TO be feared.

REALISTIC VISION.

Sarah Barnhardt'S Premonitive
Dream Verified by Telegraph.
Nine. Sarah Bernhardt is firm be-
lever in the supernatural. She has
related that when ut New York, says
the Boston Post, on her first Amer can
tour. she woke up one night after a
terrible dream, in which she had seen
her son Maurice bitten by two mad
dogs. The vision made such an i'm
preston on her mind thu early next
morning she telegraphed to Maurice,
and received the reply that he had
been bitten by two dogs, but that the
wounds in his arm were not serious.
Moreover, the dogs were not rabid,
but had been Immediately killed.
Mime. Bernhardt could, she affirms,
mention numerous other circumstances
in her life which it would be i'm
possible to put down TO mere chance
or coincidence.
