SAN ANTONIO, Tex, March 31.-For
two years past there have been fire.
quent incursions into Texas from Mexi-
co. The point of attack has been the
unsettled country along the Rio Grande,
beginning seventy-fve miles south of
El Paso and extending down and with
in fifty miles of Fort Clark. The ma
rauders have invariably made good their
escape The section is at the mercy of
the worst men in either republic.
Might has made right, and the six
shooter has been supreme. Things have
gone from bad to worse; murder and
Ianch- burning have been of weekly and
stock-lifting of well nigh daily occur
renee. DIR. 5. 7. Hensley, one of the
leading citizens of Preside county, is
now here with a petition to Brighten.
David S. Stanley, commanding the de-
partment of Texas. 1t asks that suf-
ficient force of United States sOldiery
be stationed in the country affected,
which, owing to peculiar loop made
by the Rio Grande, is known as ''The
Peninsula" A convention composed of
the wealthiest and most responsible cit
liens of that section was recently held
at Maria. They empowered Hensley to
act for them, and set forth the reason
for their demand as follows:
Theft and murder have become so
common in this district that our people
are discouraged and panic-stricken, and
unless something is done for US by the
state and general government our peo-
pie will be compelled to take up arms
in our own defense against the organ
ised bands of marauders from Mexican
territory, or otherwise we will be COM
PEELED to move and give them the coun-
try. We are law-abiding, and desire to
save ourselves and Texas from the obi
um of mobs and violence as long as
possible, but we look upon it as hard,
after fighting Indians for thirty years
and building up west Texas to
be driven from our possessions
by thieving and murderous bands
who come in and claim protec-
ton from our sister republic, where,
through respect to the friendly rela-
tions existing between the United
States and Mexico, we are unable to
overtake them and mete out to them
the penalties they so richly deserve.
We shall stay the hand of violence as
long as possible, but there are some
things that Americans cannot and will
not submit to, and the indiscriminate
robbery and slaughter of her peaceable
and law-abiding citizens along the
frontier is one of them We will here
add with pleasure that the Mexican
authorities have shown a friendly
disposition toward us at all times,
for which we are grateful,
but the facts are that they are
in about the same fix as ourselves.
Their frontier is sparsely settled, and
their government has not done much
toward protecting the territory men
toned. The country is wild and mount
ainous. and it viii take the united eff
forts of both Mexico and the United
States to break up these unlawful
bands"

WAR TALK.
Remittent War Fever Signs In
Germany.
LITTLE CONFIDENCE IN The KAISER.
Socialism Raises Its Unwashed Head-An
Active Propagands-PeOple Looking
Toward Prince Bismarck With Ex-
pectatiOn-Rumors of Recall.

LONDON, March 3O.-Advices from
Berlin state that unusual activity has
prevailed for the past few days in the
war Office and that an unusual number
of employees were busy at the Office to-
day. The emperor had a long audience
with Chancellor Caprivi, and the high
officials generally look as if something
important was on the tapis.
There is no doubt that the movements
of Russian troops near the German
frontier and the evidence of cordial in
timacy between Russia and France have
caused much anxiety in Berlin, and it
is possible that the alarm caused by the
apprehension of war may lead to i'm
portant military changes.
Besides the thought that Russia and
France may be preparing for war, the
German government is said to be very
much stirred up over startling facts
that have been disclosed in regard to
the socialistic propaganda in the army.
The military authorities have come in
possession, through a recent arrest, of
evidence going to show that social de-
mocracy has been spreading its doc
trines through the ranks of both the
army and navy and has made numerous
proselytes, and that the propagation
of socialism among the troops is not
confined to Germany, but is systematic
ally carried on throughout Europe with
the exception of Russia. The kaiser,
it is stated, has given directions that the
evil should be dealt with most radically
and any officer or soldier detected in
propagating the prohibited opinions
shall be punished with the utmost Sc
verify. The information ascertained
has also been sent TO Austria and Bel,
gium for the war offices in that country
to be on their guard
Prince Bismarck is filling up in an
elaborate manner the two houses he
has purchased in the Konigratzer
Strasse and thirty of the rooms are be-
ing furnished in a style heftting a
wealthy ambassador of some leading
power. The prince, his friends say,
will maintain sort of personal court
in Berlin to which his followers and
admirers, German and foreign, can re-
sort and from appearances it will be a
center of considerable influence and au-
thority.
The war talk which usually makes a
sovereign popular has contrary effect
in the case of the kaiser and there is a
hardly concealed apprehension of his
ability to direct Germany in crisis,
while there is also feeling that his
overtures to France have had something
to do toward bringing a crisis on. Bis
marck grows in popularity as faith in
the kaiser cools, and confidence in the
kaiser now is at very low ebb.
1t is stated that Prince Henry, of
Prussia, visited Bismarck last Thurs
day, an incident which gives currency
again to the rumors that the kaiser
shortly proposes to call on the ex-ehan-
cellor.

KISSED The POET.
How Dom Pedro Made whittier Blus

How Dom Pedro Made whittier Blush
Like = Bashful Maiden.
The poet Whittier, who even In his
old age Is as bashful rs a girl, was
once embraced and kissed by a man in
a crowded Boston parlor. The incident
is told by Rev. Carles Martyr in his life
of Wendell Phillips. Dom Pedro, Of
Brazil, on his visit to Boston In 1876,
expressed wish to meet Mr.. Whittier,
with whom he had corresponded for
many years concerning poetry and
slavery. A notable Bostonian gave q
reception to the emperor at which the
poet promised TO be present
The emperor was conversing with
Wendell Phillips when the venerable
poet entered, but he Immediately rose,
threw his arms about the blushing
Quaker, and kissed him on both cheeks.
Then seating him on a sofa he placed
himself at the poets side and chstted
with him for half an hour.
When the conversation became gen.
eral the emperor told of his driving
over to Charlestown to see Bunker Hill
monument It was six o'clock In tho
morning, and the keeper was IN bed.
When aroused he refused to let the en-
peror in until he paid the entrance fee,
half dollar.
Dom Pedro, having left his purse at
home, was obliged to borrow the coin
from the hacl1man. The company
laughed and Mr.. Phillips said:
"The story does not end with the pay
ment of the entrance fee. viii tell
your majesty the rest of It. Two hours
later q well-known leader Of Boston
society entered the visitors room at the
base of the monument. Glansing over
the book in which every visitor regis
ters he saw your majesty's signature.

have had the emperor of Brazil here

examined the handwriting and seorn-

A BAG OF DIAMONDS.
The Tragedy That Was Enacted
In the Old Misers Bedroom.

Many times he had thought of it, and
finally had screwed his courage to the
sticking point
After all, what good to the old man
was that bag of gems? What good ex-
cept to count over, mark their twink
ling facets, gloat over their value, and
laugh at those who might covet them.
Palsied fingers would shake as the
strings of the chamois-skin treasury
were rapturously united, and a mo-
ment's life and energy fash into
pinched cheek and faded eye, as every
evening the revelation of untold wealth
woke in withered heart it's only sur
viving passion. But what good to the
world or to the man was that brief
minute of ecstasy? Was it not paid for
a hundredfold by nights of fear and
forbodings of robbery that made life a
perpetual horror? How often had Paul
heard his uncle wake from his noontide
nap with dreaming cry: My dia-
monds, my diamondsl Is that you,
Paul? thought it was a robber."
His thoughts were to come true to-
night Paul tried to persuade h1mSel1
that the treasure he had set his heart
on belonged to him as much as if they
had been lying in mine, the prize Of
the first finder.
Then came another thought. His own
poverty and his great love. His uncle's
ward was as poor as himseh-poor,
proud and beautiful Such flowers only
grow in hard and solitary places, in the
nipping air, and uncrowded even by the
unobtrusiveness of love. Straight,
slender and full-hued as a rose, with q
big soul beaming in her face and eyes,
with meek, silent ways, and bearing
unhinchingly the blows of an old mans
brutal tongue, this girl had presented
to the poets mind the image of power,
OF profound passion, of untiring con-
stancy, such as had enchanted him and
transformed his life. She had been
first to shy him. then wistfully tender
as she pitied him. It was In the arbor

OKLAHOMA LANDS.
The Four Reservations TO Be Opened
simultaneously in the Fall.

The -Four Reservations to Be Opened
simultaneously in the Fall.
WASHINGTON, March Silt is proba-
BILE that the lands recently purchased
from the Indians in Oklahoma will not
be thrown open to settlement until next
fall. AIloting agents have been recent
ly appointed and are now at work in
the Sac and Fox reservation. The land
in the Iowa reservation will require but
little time, having already been prac-
tically taken in severalty.
Under the provisions of the law, how
ever, the Indians are allowed four
months in which to make their final Sc
lections and they will probably not all
avail themselves of their privilege until
the last minute. This would make the
Iate of opening some time in July, but
the department has practically deter
mined not to open these lands until some
time in the fall The Pottawatomies and
absentee Shawnee and the Cheyenne,
and ArapahOe reservations will also be
allotted this summer and the agents for
this purpose will be appointed in few
DAYS The last reservation named is
the largest and it is calculated it will
take nearly all spring and summer to
allot the lands in sevcra'ty to the three
or four thousand Indians.
1t is the present purpose of the depart
ment to open the four reservations as
nearly as possible at the same time.
Since the las l0tmcnt cannot be con-
cludcd unti, about the fir OF Scptcm-
