Mixed Horses.

Wednesday last while the circus
was here, while everybody was on
the lookout for sharpers, thieves,
etc, Mr. G. F. Herbst and Mr.. r.
Strickert, who have teams very near
alike hitched theirs near Harrison's
corner side by side. Mr.. Herbst got
negro to take his to Lockett's
stable and have it fed. Of course
the negro got the wrong horse, and
some time during the afternoon Mr..
Strickert missed his and took Mr..
Herbst's and started out to look for
his own. In the meantime Mr.. h
wanted to go home and ordered his
horse at the stable, but when the
team was hitched up Mr.. H. refused
it telling the stable man that it was
not his. He was assured that it
was the one the negro said was his,
and he went to looking for the
negro and his own horse, and both
gentlemen labored under the i'm
preston that they had lost horse
and buggy for some time until the
exchange was discovered.

BURGLARY.

While all of the family of T. B.
Bolts, Esq, were absent taking III
the circus Wednesday, some one
broke window sash at his residence
reached in and unfastened the win
dow and entered, going through
very near everything in the house,
securing a fine pistol, d breach load
ing shotgun and a musket. Several
trunks were rummaged through,
some of the locks broken, bureau
and table drawers ritfled, and in fact
everything in the house except a
wardrobe, which contained some good
silver ware and S15 in dimes, which
the children had saved in banks.
Mr.. Bolts says he had purchased
another pistol and deposited the
dimes at the bank and would like an
opportunity to use the pistol on the
same burglars.

FAKIRs WITH THE SHOW.

The Banners warning to change
no money for strangers on circus
day was timely, for those kind of ia
kris seemed to be more numerous
here on that day than any other
day. Their plan was to exchange
silver for currency, return and Ok
change currency for silver and take
the chances of being able to get the
best of the count.
One of them bought money or
ders for a considerable amount from
Postmaster Dryer and tried to
work him, but was called back and
forced to plank down the remainder
of the money. He figured around
with a 500 bill and a hundred dol
lars in small bills until Mr.. Dryer
opened a drawer and transferred a
six-shooter to his pocket, when he
got very careful in making change.
At the depot Mr.. Dryer saw the
man again and after cycling him
pretty closely while and walking
around looking at him, the fakir
took a sneak" and as he started
across the railroad track Mr.. Dryer
decided to try him and see if he was
lodging, and yelled out ''catch him,
whereupon the fellow ran as if he
thought the officers were right after
him. The same racket was tried at
various places in the city, but only
in one did the BANNER learn that the
cash was short and there only SIG.

IN HONOR OF SENATOR MAETzF.

/ Last Saturday afternoon a NUM-
Der of citizens went down to Bell
vile to visit the grave of the late
Senator E. &. Maetze and held a
memorial service in honor OF his
memory.
1t was a matter of universal re
gret here that the news of his death
was not received in time for his
many friends in this city to attend
his funeral, and pay him the respect
that his distinguished service has 50
richly merited, to say nothing of the
high personal esteem i'll which he
was held here and which would have
carried many to his funeral had they
been informed as tc when it would
take place, some OF them feeling az
grieved that they were not Informed
about it, and even at this late day
they will go down IN body to visit
his grave and hold memorial servi-
ces, at which warm friends will re
count his party service, his upright
life walk review his history and
thereby pay tribute of respect to
his memory, and show to the world
the high esteem in which he was
held by the people of this section.
His death has created a vacancy
in the senate that must needs be
filled if an extra session of the Leg
islature is called, and by the way, if
Gov. Hogg intends calling an extra
session he will probably order an
election in this district first, so his
action in the premises can be de
pended upon as barometer indicat-
ing what his intentions are in re
gard to an extra session. If he
does not intend to call an extra ses-
sion there will be no necessity for
his ordering a special election to
elect Senator, but in case he does
order an election, with a view of
calling an extra session, the question
has already been frequently pro
pounded, "Who will be Senator
Maetze's successor 2"
A Houston Post correspondent
writing from Richmond names Mr..
P. E. Pearson of that place, as a
suitable man to succeed him, and
here the friends of W. W. Searcy,
Esq, have been considering him as
the most available man, suitable for
the position, though the BANNER is
not informed as to whether he
would consent to make the race or
not.
The next session of the Legisla-
ture, if the extra session is called,
will be an important one. The re-
apportionment of the State being
one of the features that will interest
every section, and Washington coun
ty will want man in the senate
that will endeavor to get her in a
District that will not place her at
political disadvantage. The cleo
ton of United States Senator will
be one of the important works of
the extra session and Washington
county, in the BANNERS opinion,
would want a representation that
would vote for Mills as long and as
often as necessary to secure his
election to the position

THE THREE BLACK CROWS STORY.
Its Application to the Condition OF Az
fairs in the DakOtas.
As Good Opportunities there as in Iowa
and Minnesota.

The ancient story of man who
was reported 10 have swallowed three
black crows, but which alarming
statement on being run down was
found to have been the simple asser
ton that he had swallowed some
thing as black as crow, frequently
finds its parallel in these days of
wide dissemination of rumors and
reports by the daily press Among
the unconscious eXaggerations of the
passing hour, is the association that
has been given to the very name
"Dakota" with the words drouth
and famine. Facts, however, will
prove the fallacy of such general i'm
preston, and demonstrate MANY
counties in the Dakotas to have had
good crops for a succession of years.
Especially is this true of the vicinity
of Sioux Falls, and of Minnehaha and
certain other counties in South Da-
kota. They are separated from Iowa
and Minnesota by imaginary lines
only; the rain falls upon that por-
ton of South Dakota precisely the
same as it does in Iowa and Mime.
sofa, and the climate and soil there
is also precisely the same as that OF
Iowa and Minnesota. Notwithstand-
ing this similarity so wide has the fall
lacy in regard to Dakota" spread.
that excellent prairie land can be
bought in South Dakota for $40 an
acre, while across the imaginary line
line between, in Iowa, $40 PEI acre
is the prevailing price for precisely
the same land.
Right here is an opportunity for
the enterprising, Industrious farmer
to investigate for himself the posi-
bilities of the country mentioned, and
by awaiting himself of this Fictitious
low value, TO make not only good
living, but to accumulate a hand
some property. Those who have
tried it and know, say it can be done.

The Western Settlers Chosen Specific.

With every advance of emigration
into the far West, new demand is
created for Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. Newly peopled regions are
frequently less salubrious than older
settled localities, on account Of the
miasma which rises from recently
cleared land, particularly along the
banks of rivers that are subject to
freshets. The agricultural or min
ing emigrant soon learns, when he
does not already know, that the
Bitters afford the only sure protec-
ton against malaria, and those dis
orders of the stomach, liver and
bowels, to which climatic changes,
exposure, and unaccustomed or I'M
healthy water or diet subject him.
Consequently, he places an estimate
upon this great household specific
and preventive commensurate with
its intrinsic merits, and is careful to
keep on hand a restorative and
promoter of health so implicitly to
be relied upon in time of need
