OUR PROSPECTIVE VISITORS.

San Antonio the Mecca of the
Health and Wealth Seeker.
With the encampment, the demo-
cratic state convention; and the re-
publican convention, and the fair yet
to come, this city can lay claim to the
busiest summer of any city in Texas,
as far as the number of visitors with
in our gates are concerned, and il is
not difficult to see that we would
have dull time of it, especially as
we have 1000 residents wandering
about under the mistaken notion that
they are having a glorious summer
ing. This busy summer will be sup
plemented by busy winter as well,
for indications point to an unpar-
alleled influx of strangers, in
dicative of the prominence of
San Antonio in the eyes of
the tourist and the investor, and
which will make every other little
town in the state turn green with
envy.
Look at the number of excursions
having San Antanio as an objective
point, that have already been ar
ranged. During the coming winter
we " i'll have some half.dozen of the
famous Raymond-Whitcom excur-
sions of pleasure seekers. These ex-
cursions have already advertised the
state. and particularly San Antonio,
to the value of many thousands of
dollars.
This winter the great Pennsylvania
railroad will run excursions from the
east to San Antonio. Mexico and CAL
fornia They will be conducted
about the same as the prece lug and
will prove of as much benefit to this
city.
Private and native enterprise will
not be wanting to assist in attracting
visitors to the best city in the south.
The Chamberlain Investment COM
pany who are among the largest real
estate holders in the city, will bring
from the north an excursion of capt.
talists in the interest of their pro.
perty. The majority of the other sub
urban companies will do the same,
following the example of the New
England Land company OF last win
ter.
Then we will probably have the
Leggett excursion of home seekers
from the northwestern states who
will come during the fair, and month
ly thereafter. If the city fails to re-
ceive some great benefit from this
unprecedented influx of moneyed
strangers, the LIGHT will be consid-
erably startled.

Kemmler in a Jar.

From the Rochester POst-EXpresS.
A Buffalo dispatch announces that
DIR. George E. Fell, OF that city, has
got home from Auburn. He has
gathered a jar of Kemmler fragments
for scientific purposes" but some
body stole it. However, the Doctor
is not altogether bereft of souvenirs.
He has four bottles left, one filled
with blood from the right side of
Reminders heart; another. with blood
from the left side; third with part
of the murderer's brain and spinal
cord, and a fourth with some of the
skin that was burned at the base OF
the spine. The Doctor Gays that
there is material for 10, 900 microscop-
ic slides in the third bottle alone. DIR.
Daniels has one of the four pieces into
which Reminders skull was sawed.
Why do we repeat this ghostly stuff?
Simply to show how the men gather
ed about the murderer as witnesses OF
the secret execution carried out the
law. This contemplate statute pro-
vided for the funeral services over the
criminals body, and for its final di s.
position. 1t was to be buried in
quicklime. But here we have one
physician making off with jar and
four bottles of Kemmler fragmen Is!
Oh, yes, execution by electricity is so
easy and so unsensational!

ANOTHER MURDER.
UNCLE BAKER SHOOTS YOUNG
KIMBLE.
Because the Latter Was Counting
Pretty Niece.

Because the Latter Was Counting
Pretty Niece.
H. w. Kimble, young lumberman,
who came to this city from the East
Texas lumber districts two months
ago, YVES killed last evening at Z
O'Clock, by Chas. Baker, also a saw
mill man who came here with Kim
BILE. Baker Is an old man of 40 years,
and claims the shooting was in self
defense. The tragedy occurred in the
southern outskirts of the city, on the
premises of Baker.
Kimble was shot three times with
a Colts revolver, and died immedi-
ately after. All the shots took effect
in the back. After the killing,
Baker surrendered himself to the
police and gave his version of the
affair about as follows:
II have been in the city only a few
weeks, having been formerly employ
ed in the lumber regions of East Tex
as. The young man, Kimble, has
been with me for some time, but re-
Gently becoming infatuated with q
niece of my wife's, Miss Greer, has
made himself obnoxious to us all.
Some time ago I objected to his COM
ing to my house, and he threatened
the lives of myself and wife. A
brother of mine ON the police force
here, secured the girl place in town
where she would be free from his at
tentions and this added fuel to Kim
ble's anger.
and told Mr.. Webb, who manages a
grange store, to tell Kimble not to
come back to my house or there
would be trouble. Kimble met my
brother in the afternoon and raised a
quarrel with him over our trouble,
and again renewed his threats.
About o'clock last night saw KIM
BILE come into the yard, and as he
neared the house he made a motion
as if to draw a pistol from his hip
pocket. 1 called 10 him, but he con-
tinued to advance, and opened fire,
shooting three times. At the third
shot 1 saw him fall, and he was dead
in a few minutes. am very sorry it
occurred, but under the circumstan-
ces 1 feel that the killing was justifi.
able and that acted only in self de-
fense."
An inquest was soon begun by JUS
tice McAllister.
Justice McAllister has not yet con-
cluded the inquest, but will conclude
it and hold Barker's examining trial
at the same time tomorrow afternoon
at o'clock. The place where the
shooting occurred is known as the
old Baylor place.

\ Cruel Indi2nity.

II beg your pardon, madam, for in
truding upon you at meal time" he
said politely, "but may 1 ask you for
little salt?"
The lady brought him a salt box.
He looked at 1t meditatively and
leaned against one of the pillars of
the porch.
ut is foolish habit / have got in
to-" he said in an apologize way,
land / dare say you will consider it
one of questionable taste, but l al
ways eat salt on my Watermelon
"But you haven't any watermelon, "
said the lady of the house.
"Thank you kindly for suggesting
it," answered the seedy looking tour
ist gratefully. "Shsll L eat the melon
out here?"
81 don't see how you can. We have
no watermelon today"
mo watermelon at all in the
house?"
None"
"Then, madam, said the caller, in
the tone of an injured man, permit
me to return the salt. l will not say
l am angry, but l am hurt-deeply
hurt. You have raised my expecta-
tions and cruelty disappointed them.
l leave you, madam, to your own re-
Elections"
He made long bow, handed back
the salt box with the air of q king de-
clining a dukedom, and two minutes
later he was on the back porch at the
next neighbours asking for little
horse radish.-Chicago Tribune.

That Wilkesbarre Horror.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, August 90
AS a consequence of the terrible de-
vastation and complete CONSERVATION
that followed the cyclone which trav-
eled through this city late here yes
terday afternoon, and the fact that
darkness so quickly enveloped the
valley, it was impossible to
gather much intelligen, as to
the extent of the damage done
and the loss of life. AS time goes on
the severity of the cyclone is more
and more demonstrated, and it is
singular that so comparatively few
lives were lost. Immense buildings
containing many people we're un-
rooted and in many cases almost de-
stroyed, in the twinklng of an eye
and this at an hour when people were
about the streets, amid fly
ing timbers and debris of
every kind. The city in its
most frequented parts, around the
depots, presents its worst appear
ance, and when 1t is remembered
that passenger and freight cars were
lifted from the tracks upon which
they stood and lit on their sides,
while other cars were rushed along
the track by the force OF Cyclone
wave. a small conception of the
terrific velocity of the wind may be
obtained.

A Haul of MOOnshiners.

NASHVILLE, August 20.-General
Deputy Collector Spurrier, of the
United States internal revenue de-
partment, has just captured eight
moonshiners in the Pea Ridge dis
trict, near the Kentucky line. This
district has long been notorious for
it's desperate mOonshiners, that de-
fled the law and threatened the Off
GERS. Several men have been killed
in this vicinity by moonshiners, but
within the past year Mr.. Spurrier,
with three or four men, has paid par
ticular attention to this section and
destroyed fifteen stills. Mr.. Spurrier
some time ago received a message
from several wild-catters, informing
him that their still was in operation
and daring him to attempt TO capture
it, saying he would be warmly re-
ceived If he ventured into the district
again. Mr.. Spurrier went there few
days ago. He found the still, cut it
up, and then called upon the men at
whose invitation he had made the
raid. They were taken completely
by surprise and eight of them cap
tured. John Watson. Bill Watson,

RAILROAD LOCALITIES.

The local passengers travel for this
precedent.
The cotton season is opening. On
Monday the Southern Pacific handled
ll44 bales and has handled 5l25 bales
| since the first OF the month.
The washOuts on the Southern
Pacific in Arizona nave been repair
ed and twelve delayed "Sunset
specials" came through with whoop
yesterday and last night.
The roads are handling lots of San
Antonio beer, which is in great de-
mand by thirsty villagers on the out
side.
The freight shipped under the war
rates is beginning to come in. The
Southern Pacific warehouse is damned
to OVERLOOKING, and eighteen car loads
are standing on the side tracks walt
ing for a chance to get unloaded. The
other roads are similarly crowded.
AS an evidence of the great impetus
given to shipments to Texas points
by the recent hair pulling among the
roads competing for Texas business,
drummer for a we'll known mercan-
tile house yesterday said that he had
received orders from his house not to
take any more orders for the time be-
ing from Texas customers, as they
were unable to procure cars on ac-
count of the vast shipments.
Considerable trouble arises of late
on all the roads from hot boxes, owing
to dust getting in the journals and by
friction, causing the tow and lubrica-
ting oil to take fire. When not
closely watched for they are very
dangerous.
Justice McA llister yesterday held
an inquest on the body of John Bar
Der, who was killed Sunday by the
switch engine at the Arkansas Pass
roundhouse. The verdict was that
deceased came to luis death as a re-
suit of his own carlessness, and no
blame was attached to the railroad
or Its servants. The inquest was late
but "better late than never.n
Mr.. E. G. Bleker, general freight
and passenger agent of the Calves
ton, Harrisburg 4 San Antonio, R'wy,
is IN the city.
The recent action of the Farmers
Loan and Trust company, of New
York, to whom the San Antonio and
Arkansas Pass railroad company is q
heavy debtor, was not prompted, as
has been misstated, directed against
the receivership of the road, nor to
have the receivers removed. Their
action simply means that they are
distrustful of getting justice in the
18th district court, fearing partiality
and prejudice, and for this reason
seek to the move jurisdiction to the
federal court. These creditors are
satisfied with Messrs. Yoakum and
Macnamara. The case comes up be-
fore Judge Maxey next November.

Exit Oil and Wick.

The government headquarters have
discarded the use of the dim oil lamp
and have substituted gas in place of
IL. General Stanley, who was seen
by a reporter in regard to the change,
said that he was satisfied with the
lamps. They burn as good as all
gas does. but of course they are not
as brilliant as the electric lights.
We had the comparative cost of the
two modes of Illuminating in the bids
and found that gas lights cost but
one-third of what the electric lamps
cost. Some forty 16-candle power
gas lamps have been put up. The
lights are situated little high, and
were somewhat hidden by the trees,
but that has been remedIed by our
trimming away the leaves. They
give perfect satisfaction now"
