\ Source Of Complaint.

It IS claimed the coDstables do not use
sufficient discrimination in the arrests they
make, especially those run in under the
vagrancy act. II IS said they are more in
tent upon the fee than upon the question
of justice or injustice to the party arrested
This is brought out by the fact that several
men arrested as Migrants and sent upon tho
county roads on tifty-two days fine Were
not Migrants, but were simply honest
workingmen out of employment and out of
money, and perforce compelled TO take the
road. While they may come under the
classification of vagrant under 4 literal in
depreciation of the law, the most just ad-
ministration of the law is that which dis
eliminates between the real offender and
the innocent victim of circumstances. The
hard, callouSed hands of the workingman
should be sufficient defence against a
charge of vagrancy in any court of justice.
The police seem to be of the opinion that
all vagrancy cases in the city limits should
properly belong to the police. and not to
the justices courts. II seems the charter
is not explicit enough in defining the
offenses over which the city should have
exclusive jurisdiction.

SOME RUMORS.
Gazette Reporters Baffied in an Attempt to
Get Information.

For several days past the rumor has been
current that Charles Robinson had left for
parts unknown. GAZETTE reporters made
every possible effort to ascertain the truth
or falsity of the reports. Every effort to
obtain information from his friends and
colleagues was met with the intimation
that they did not know or care where he
had gone. He may be and probably is
away on business trip, but if so it is re-
markable that his friends do not say so.
A reporter of THE GAZETTE called at the
residence OF Mrs. Reed, 1904 Lamar street,
and being unable to see Mrs. Robinson, So
icited some information on the subject
from Mrs. Reed. The interview was any
thing but satisfactory. After his mission
was made known the lady assumed an air
that was more than frigid. The sultry con-
dition of the room was at once changed to
one of delightful GOODNESS. More than this
it was arctic. Instead of throwing any
light upon the subject the lady in question
entered into dissertation upon the genus
reporter, and we would gather from her re-
marks that the representatives of this class
were of a very inferior order, ESPECIALLY the
one who was importuning her for informa-
ton

AN AWFUL FALL.
Mrs. Glnk Falls Down an Embankment
at the Union Depot.

Last night the delayed Santa Fee train ar
rived from the south at the Union depot at
12:15, and among the passengers who
alighted was party Of Fort Worth people.
among whom was Mrs. Glink, 4 sister of
James Shepherd Of the Collins
& Armstrong company. In coming down
the approach from the Union depot she
stepped over the edge of the embankmeut
and rolled to the bottom, a distance of ten
or fifteen feet She was quite seriously
bruised, though fortunately no bones We're
broken. The extent of her injuries will
probably not be known until to-day.
Officers Wallace and Talbot, who we're on
that beat, were near and assisted the lady
to regain the walk and saw that she safely
reached her home.
There is no guard rail at that point and
there are no lights, those on Front
street having tendency to blind
people instead Of hiding them from the re-
Election in their eyes. The ground belongs
to the Texas and Pacific railway company,
and that road will be sued for damages on
the ground of negligence in not providing
safeguards, the land to the south of the
approach being very low.
