Henderson, He took the Academy of Music In

Was a SanaAntonio Girl.

st. Louis papers contain accounts OF
the deed of young lady, who, as a
child was known in San Antonio
where she lived with her parents for
year or two. The account reads:
Tuesday evening q carriage con-
tanning DR.. l.. Peterson, his wife and
daughter, Miss Nellie, of Windsor
place, was standing on Franklin ave.
nue.. The driver had left his seat for
a moment, wh-n the horses
became frightened and dashed
across the street and almost in
front of passing car. Miss Nellie,
with rare presence of mind anu
courage, sprang from the carriage,
and, running to the borses' heads,
swung upon the bits, until assistance
arrived, thus saving her father and
mother and utterly unmindtul of her
own danger. DR.. Peterson has been
an invalid for some years, and was
unable to do anything to avert the
accident. The young lady's courage
received high praise from all who
stood around to view the Yelled Pro-
phet's parade.

Capt. j. Il. Butts.

Among the men who have endeared
themselves to the people on our from
tier is Capt. J. L. Bulls, whose mar
rage to the daughter of Col. John
Withers took place last evening. This
gallant gentleman was in the saddle
tor years on our frontier in command
of L. 5. troops and gained we'll de-
served reputation for his efficiency
and dash as an Indian fighter. The
people on the frontier evidenced
their appreciation of Captain
Bulls by presenting him
with a sword. He has always re-
garded San Antonio as his home, and
among our citizens he is held in high
esteem for his sterling qualities, and
his genial manners. In his second
marriage he has shown his attach
ment of our city by winning one of
her fairest daughters. He has gone
with his bride to his distant post of
duty, In the wilds of Arizona. It ia
time such q soldier was given rest
within the boundary o civilza ion ne
has won this consideration.

TOOK POISON.
A Collector Drinks Goblet of Fatal
Laudanum and Dies

A Collector Drinks a Goblet of Fatal
Laudanum and Dies.
A peculiarly sad case OF suicide
took place last night about 8 o'clock
on Pecan, near st. Msry's street, at
, the residence of Marshall L. MCGEE,
q collector for the Showers Furniture
company, Of this city. At that hour
Mr.. MCGEE and his wife were in their
sitting room, when suddenly he arose,
walked to the dresser and poured q
goblet half.full of laudanum from u
flask and drank it. His wife sup
posed he had taken brandy aud asked
for little, but he replied, "You must
not have any of this" AS he walked
past her she detected the scent of
lsudanum and accused him OF having
taken it. He denied 1t but al
most Immediately felt the effects Of
the terrible dose and became uncon-
scious. The wife screamed and the
first man to come to her assistance
| was q detective, who had been shad-
owing the house in order to get Mr..
MCGEE to question him in regard to
alleged Irregularities that had been
discovered in his manner of collecting
certain small bills due the firm he
worked for.
OF course q physician was sum-
moned, but the man could not be re-
suscitated and died soon after.
The wife Is almost crazed with grief.
Her statement was that Mr..
MCGEE never mentioned to her
that he would kill hims self, but
had lately been drinking pref
ty hard and was very respondent.
One of his friends says that he had
told him a few days ago that he had
more trouble than he could stand, but
said nothing of suicide.
He had worked for the Showers
company for the past five months.
Recently the firm discovered that he
had given receipt for $40 when he
had collected $40 and others OF like
transactions had come to the knowl-
edge of the firm. He had not come to
work yesterday afternoon and the
| firm sent detective to hunt for him,
thinking probably he had left the
city. It is not known whether he
knew the detective was watching
him or not, but it Is thought he did
not.
Mr.. and Mrs. MCGEE were from
Little Rock, Ark, here, but he was
born in Greensboro, KY, where his
parents reside. His age was 80 years.
He had purchased 40 cents worth If
laudanum, in four little bottles, one
from Tips & Silverthorn, one from
Bowling & Flood, and two from Cum
ningham's drug store, containing in
all three ounces. This laudanum he
had poured in small pocket flask
and left the bottles on the corner of
st. Mary's and Pecan streets, where
afterwsrd he told DIR. Braden he
would find them and they were found.
Before he drank the drug he
asked his wife in joking
way what she would do if she
found HIM cold and white in the
morning. And when he was about
to take the fatal draught, as she
thought, to make toddy, and she
had asked for some of it, he said that
rather than she should get any of it
he would drink it all himself, and
this he did probably to prevent her
from taking any of it after his death.
The coroner, Justice Heron, will
will render verdict of death from
laudanum poisoning, and for suicide.

MILITARY NOTES.

In yesterdays papers appeared an
item stating that the 23rd infantry
band had lett with the other troops
for Dallas, which was a mistake as
they have not gone and do not intend
going. Though they expected to
leave few days before the order was
issued.
A. company, 5th infantry, which
has b cen stationed at Fort Mcintosh
for some time, passed through this
city yesterday from Fort Mcintosh,
en- route to Fort Leavenworth.
Capt John L. Bulls, U. s. A, was
married to Miss Josephine Withers,
daughter of Col John Withers, in this
city yesterday. The LIGHT is indebt-
ed to. them for an invitation to the
wedding.
Dress parade was given at Fort
Sam Houston yesterday. Very few
citizens attended 1t.
The 23rd infantry band gave their
regular bi-weekly concert at the mill
tary post last night. A very fine pro
gramme was rendered by them, which
was as follows:
]. March, "Salute to Mobile, )" Brooks
=. Selection, "Beggar Student" Mil.
locker.
8. Kerry Dance, Molloy;
4. Selection. Patience" Sullivan.

There were no enlisted men confin-
ed in the post guard house yester day,
and there were no prisoners released
there from.
A very pleasant sociable was given
by Lieutenant Depray, at his resi-.

night, in honor of Miss Hardy. Quite
large number of friends were pres
emit, who enjoyed the occasion greatly.
Some very fine music was rendered
by the guests.

poor again. This will last until about
the first of next month, or rather un-
til pay day. The billiard room is not
doing as we'll as was expected.
Gen. Chas. H. Smith, of the 10Th in
