wILL HEHAyE TO PAY IT.

Sheriff D. E. league was on Thurs
day served with process to appear al
the next term of the District Court
of Burleson county, which convenes
the 18th Monday after the first Mon.
day in September, and show cause
why a Judgment for $50 entered
against him on the 2Sth day of last
May for failure to make return on
an attachment for John Wi,Iipgham
OF this county, in the case of the
State VS. ". X. Sapp.
The circumstances of this seeming
dereIiction of duty for which he was
fined, are as follows: He served
the attachment on the witness. but
knowing that it would take until in
the afternoon to secure jury in the
case, and the boy being none too
able to be paying board bills up there
waiting for the trial, informed the
witness that he could reach Caldwell
in time by coming to Brennan on
the 2Sth and going up on tLs eleven
c,S s.SSz ., ,iI, d. bat in order thas they
night know he was coming, so that
the case would not be postponed on
account of his absence, he telegraph
ed the authorities to go ahead with
the trial that the witness would be
there before they could possibly or
ganize the jury and reach the pro-
ceedings in the trial where they
would want him, as he would leave
here on the IL o'clock train, which
he did. However, the case was post
poned at IL o'clock and fine of $50 !
entered against Sheriff league, which
if not remitted, he will have to pay,
however much may seem the inius-
tice of it.

who has been spending the summer

whose leave of absence will ter

Quite number of invited guests
were present, and the reception
was most cordial, the refreshments
elegant, and served in a manner that
was pleasant. After the refresh
ments had been served the young
folks participated in a dance which
was a feature of the evening, and
in no small degree to
its pleasures, lasting until a late
hour. The attendants were loud in
their praise of the social pleasures
of the reception and left with re-
gret that the evening had sped SO
swiftly.

ATTEMPTED AssassinatiOns.

DR.. Slliman, of San Felipe, is il
the city, and has just returned from
trip in Waller county, where he
says within the past few days there
has been two or three attempts at
assassination.
Mr. Warren Cooper was one of
the victims. A few nights ago as
he was returning from church in a
buggy, some one jumped up behind
on the buggy and stabbed him four
or five times, leaping off and making
his escape without leaving any trace
of his identity. This affair seemed
all the more mysterious from the
fact that he did not have an enemy
that he knew of. 1t occurred one
mile east of Pattison.
Another gentleman near Pattison
whose name he could not recall,
was held up by three armed men,
one shooting into the rear and
another into the front of his saddle,
55 isee third throwing a pistol down on
him. but ne>turned it away with his
hand and his horss made a iunIgge
forward and he escaped unhurt.
Two or three negroes have been
killed in the same section recently,
but he did not learn any of their
names or the particulars of their
leaths, except that it was by other
negroes.

was destroyed by fire. together with
most of its contents, about 5 o'clock
Wednesday evening. The fire orig
mated from the kitchen stove and
was beyond control when discovered,
the family not having time to save
but few of their household effects.
Mr.. Schroeder's son and his wife,
recently married, were also occupants
of the same dwelling and were so
grieved at the loss of their posses
sions that they attempted suicide by
remaining in the burning building
and could not be induced to come
out, but had to be dragged out by
main force. There was no insurance
either on the building or its contents,
and the loss falls heavily upon them
