The Piedmont Hotel.

Under tie cal able management of F. D.
Black, formerly Of the Baldwin, and his
amable wife, has taken new lease of pub
lie approval and popularity. The house is
well-kept, strictly irst-ciass, and there is
an entire absence of that disorderly and
most undesi rattle element that is sometimes
found about places of public resort The
hotel is too Hell-known to need descrip-
ton it will be found thoroughly up to the
mark in every respect, Mr.. Black being
model boniface. The grounds comprise
twenty acres, and are wonderfully charm
ing, being picture squey wild and naturally
beautiful. 1t was formerly known as Bushy
Dell, and the name well characterizes the
spot. Broad paths and trails wind in and
out, browning abundance Oh shady, grassy
widely and popuiarly known for their cura-
tive value, especially in rheumatic and
chronic troubles

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Oct i3-Seven
miles below Rio Grandc City and on
the opposite side of the river the body
of a nephew of Julian Flores, a sus-
pected revolutionist, swings to a tree
with nineteen bullet holes in it. He
was arrested some days ago and left for
Victoria under a guard of soldiers. The
corpse is rotting away, but no one is
bold enough to cut it down.
Felipe Silenas, another member of
Garza's band. was caught on the sth
inst and has been removed in the same
way. The soldiers excuse the death of
these by stating they were killed under
warrant of the state, which is called la
ley fulgo. 1t is law permitting the
shooting of a prisoner who attempts to
escape.
On this warrant hundre eds of men
have been executed in Mexico within
the past five years A political prisoner
is given to understand that he must
make break for liberty, and that if
he does not he will be shot anyhow.
The victim is allowed to put some ten
yards of space between himself and
his captors and is then brought down
with bullets through the back. It is
noticeable that these escapes never
occur in a thickly wooded or bushy
country where the fugitive won Id have
