THE COURTS.
Doings in the Halls of Justice.

The district courts open on September
list with one of the heaviest dOckets
known for a long time. There are four
murder cases including the Volney Glib
and several cases of attempted murder.
besides a great number of minor cases
and a number of gambling OffenseS. The
civil docket is unusually heavy, and a
number of the cases involves much
money and important points, and great
flow of legal elOquence is expected when
these are called for hearing. Some of the
civil cases have been on the docket for
twenty-five years. and there are three or
four citizens of this county who have had
a dozen suits filed against them and have
filed suits against other parties. This
state of affairs is without doubt regarded
with cOmplacency by the legal fraternity
who naturally expect a rich harvest OF
fees. The docket of the Federal court is
unusually light so far.

Hercules in a Nut Shell.

Digging artesian wells Is about as cer-
tain as draw poker. A man might acct
dentally strike a small vein while rich
flow may lie some ten or twelve feet dis
tant. For these reasons a heavy charge
of dynamite is exploded at the bottom of
the well. In the hope of increasing the
flow OF gas in Schools well. a shell,
loaded with twenty-five pounds of dyna-
mite, was let down into this well, but
through defects in the fuse, the charge
did not explode This nugget of HercU-
lean strength has been recovered and
proves to be nothing more than a round
two-inch gutter filled with dynamite.
When this explOdes there is no doubt but
that it will tear a huge hole at the bot
tom of the well and smash things pretty
generally. Some changes will be made
on the cartridge and it will be let down
into the well again.

A LIGHT BAIL.
Chas Baker Gives the $1,000 Bond.

l.
Yesterday afternoon the witnesses and
interested parties in the Baker kimble
murder case, assembled in Justice Meal
listers office for the inquest and eXamin-
ing trial which was dOcketed for that
hour. officer Springer was the first wit
ness called for. He stated that he had
made the arrest upon Bakers informing
him that he had killed the man, kimble.
The next day the brother of Baker hand
ed him razor, which the witness here
identified.
The most important witness was
Bakers wife. She testified that Kimble
had been counting the girl and wanted to
marry her in BOerne but was refused Ii
cenSe because the girl was too young. He
then made proposals to the girl to live
with him without marriage. The witness
told the girl not to do that, to die first.
Then the girl, Annie Greer, was sent to
which Kimble swore vengeance. On the
day of his death, Kimble entered the yard
under the protest of Mrs. Baker and when
ordered out by the husband, who had
meanwhile gotten his pistol, replied with
an oath that he wouldn't go.
The witness stepped out from between
them when Kimble put his hand in his
hip pocket with a threat. The two men
were about six feet apart and Baker fired.
During the firing, Kimble turned his back
towards Baker and fell. Later the body
was taken into the house and in the morn
ing at daybreak witness got a neighbOr to
help her cover up the blood during which
they found the razor in question. She
further testified that the deceased had al
ready killed a man named Charles Rob
ertS.
After some consideration, the judge put
Bakers bail at $1,000. which was soon
raised through his brothers exertionS.
ChaS. Baker is a cOnSumptivel looking
man of about AZ years, and Kimble was a
man about ten years younger. Miss
Annie Greer, Bakers niece, about whom
the trouble arose, is a plump young lady
who is said to be only II years.

RAIL ROAD ITEMS.
Personal, Local and General Dots of
Information.


T. w. Adams, the good looking assist
ant master mechanic at Taylor, is in the
city.
A. L. Bowers. superintendent of bridges
and buildings for the International, pass
ed through the city yesterday en- route to
Laredo.
Superintendent InneSS. of the Southern
Pacific has returned from a trip over his
division.
A small washOut on the Southern Pa
citc. near Ell PaSO, occurred Wednesday
and for short time interrupted paSsen-
ger travel.
The station at Millett on the l. and G.
n. south of San Antonio was entered
Wednesday and the agents desk rifled of
a considerable sum, most of which be-
lOnged to a stranger who had deposited
it with the agent for safe keeping.
The tourist season is about over and in
a few days the tide will set hOmeward.
This is the reason why the travelling pas
senger agent is not so numerous now as
formerly, and there is also a scarcity of
that alluring literature wildly painting
the beauties of the northern health and
pleasure resorts.
1t has been long time since the freight
yards and depOtS of the city have been
iammed to the extent that is now seen.
The freight and cotton traffic is simply
immense and the resources of the roads
are severely taxed to handle it.
The Southern Pacific and International
and Great Northern railroads have made
a one fare rate with maximum of s. for
the state encampment of cOlOred militia
which Is to be held here. commencing
September oath. The Arkansas Pass also
made one fare rate with a maximum of
S.. The troops in uniform will be trans
ported free to and from the encampment
together with necessary baggage.
The men on the Arkansas Pass switch
engine are entirely too careless in the way
they handle the engine. The danger
would be much leSSened if the road would
have watchmen at the principal crossings,
and especially those that are near curves,
where the range of vision is INSTRUCTED.
1t was only last Sunday that Joe Bar
| Der, an emplOye at the rOundhOuSe of the
| Arkansas Pass railroad, met his death
| from the wheels of the switching engine,
and now another and similar event must
! be chronicled that happened yesterday
| afternoon at the crossing on South La
| redo street. John EOungman, market
| gardener, was returning home aud his
wagon was Just on the point of crossing
| the track when the switch engine. coming
| down the track at high rate of speed
! and without a warning whistle or bell
| ran into him, demOliShing the wagon and
| knocking the man across the road into
| the netghbOring fence and pilng the
horses and debris on top of him. His left
! eye presented sorry aspect and ne re-
| ceved serious bruises on the shoulders,
! head and neck. officer Beck responded to
a call sent into the police station and had
| the man removed to the Santa Rosa hos
pital, where his wounds received atten-
| ton. He received internal injuries and
! is suffering intensely.
