ECHOES FROM WEST END.
WEST END, Dec. 13, 1891.

WEST END, Dec. 13, 1891.
A recent sketch and pictures Of our
German pioneer settlers, shall fur
nish me subject for today. To all
the older people of San Antonio, the
late Mr. Schleicher, DR.. HeIff and
Conrad Zuschlag are easily recog-
nizable. These early settlers gave
proof of their power OF endurance,
they were intellectual giants; the
F. F. V. of Virginia never did more
for the proud "Old Dominion" than
did these Germans for the greater
state OF Texas. Happily some are
spared yet. Doctor Herff, has q
repu tation, not confined to the
boundaries of the state, he does more
to relieve suffering mankind
than many others OF his call
ing and to him also aptly
apply the words used by the citizens
of Medina county on the death of
Schleicher; Ever ready to succor,the
needy, as broad In the exercise Of
charity as narrow in its ostentation I"
Many of those early strugglers for the
civilization of Texas / never met
hence will have to pass them by.
The late Schleicher became one of the
greatest statesmen of this country.
During his memorial addresses"
delivered in the house of representa-
tives of the United States, among
those who attended and felt the
national loss were the President of
the United States, all the members
of his cabinet, the vice-president
and senate, and the chief justice
| and associate justices of the
supreme court. The chaplain of the
house, Rev. Harrison, who was proud
of Schleicher's friendship, said of him
when he believed himself to be
right, whether in a vast majority or
| singly and alone, he was immov-
able" Rev. Sunderland, Of the sen
ate, used these words there in his
prayer: Thou art trying us in the
furnace of affection" When Mr..
Giddipgs communicated the loss of
his colleague to the house, Is immedi-
| ately adjourned in token of respect,
| as il did the day the dead body was
conveyed from it's halls to the rail-
way station. The senate sent three
| of it's greatest lights to accompany
the remains to Texas, it fell 10 the
mournful lot of Bsyard, Hamlin
and our own Coke, to join those OF
the House, who were Mr.. Giddings,
Shelly, of Alabama; Mckenzie, of
Kentucky; Muller and Townsend, of
New York, Loring, of Massachusetts,;
Brentano, of Illinois; and Powers, OF
Maine, to do honor to the distin-
guished departed scholar. II there is
any remnant OF Knownothingism
lett, that cannot believe that man
who seeks home of his own choice
can love it as we'll as the, man who
has nothing but the accident of birth
to recommend him to his narrow
sphere, will quote short extracts
OF illustrious Americans to show how
Schleicher was regarded. Giddings:
THE grim monster, death, knows no
distinction. In this instance he has
indeed chosen a shining mark. Gus.
tave Scleicher. was no ordinary man. u
Brentano, of Illinois, said he had
seen the splendid funeral pageants OF

DUMMY MONEY PACKAGES.
A Teller Plays a $4,000 Green
Goods Game on his Bank.

New ORLEANS, Oct. 24.-The
Louisiana National Bank to-day
made public the fact that it had
been robbed by its paying teller Of
$50, 900.
The theft was discovered six days
ago by the bank officials through an
accident, and the time since has been
devoted to str aightening out affairs
so as to lay the condition of the
bank before the depositors and as
sure them of their protection. :
The robbery in some respects is So
peculiar that there is hesitancy in ac-
ceptine- the story told Dy the paying
teller, Eugene Garcia, as to why
and how he stole the money.
He is an old man ofexcellent creole
family. and has held the office for
many years. He lived without show
or display in a cheap house in the
creole section of the city. He had no
expensive habits, was not dissipated,
and, as far as known, did not specu-
late.
According to his story he discov-
cred sixteen years ago that he was
$50 900 short in accounts. BY ysome
mistake he never understood he had
overpaid some check, but to whom
he paid the monev or how the mis-
take occurred he could not say.
Fearing that if it was discovered he
would be accused of dishonesty, or
under any circumstances discharged
and held responsible for the loss,
Garcia decided to conceal it, hoping
to make good the money in some
way.

He said that reply would do him
