A DELIGHTFUL SOCIAL.
Visiting Young Ladies' Receive An ova-
ticn Last Evening.

Mrs. Lew Wagner rendered a
social last night to her visitor friends
Misses Quante, Lingener and Sick
enberger-that was voted by all pres
ent a delightful affair. The threaten
ing weather caused change in the
original program, whereby it was in
tended that the reception should be
upon the lawn, which in fact had
been prepared. The guests, though
not small in number, were amply &C
commodated and elegantly enter
tanned within door, spacious double
parlor meeting the emergency.
Mrs. Wagner was assisted
by her mother, Mrs. Pollard,
who, as mistress of ceremonies, made
every one feel at home. Time pass
ed very speedily under such ANNA
ting influences as the presence OF
bright and pretty young ladies, good
music, fragrant flowers, innocent
games, etc. The musical features OF
the evening especially were enter
tanning and added much to the pleas
ure of the company. Excellent
singing and playing were done by
the Brandau brothers, Percy Jackson
and Herbert Beatty, who make first
rate quartette, and are, moreover,
obliging, favoring the assembly with
a good many new and catchy airs.
Refreshments were served at an
appropriate time, of which all par
took with evident relish. This feat
ure was tastily managed by Mrs.
Pollard, all the guests being served
simultaneously in adjoining rooms.
The remainder of the evening was
spent in the most agreeable and hilar.
iously humorous Ito the young ladies'
game known as the Ladies' Lodge, v
into which the boys were introduced
one at a time, sworn to secresy,
blindfolded, seated in q chair, and
asked to select young lady to con
fer the degree upon him. He chooses
his sweetheart of course, who comes
forward and takes hold of his hand
coquettishly. When all is ready q
male confederate of the young lady
approaches from the rear of the can.
didate and kisses him. The hood
wink is then removed, the candidates
sheepish look exciting the greatest
merriment among the young ladies
and the previous victim.
1t was II o'clock when the crowd
dispersed, expressing their apprecia-
ton of the hOspitable and elegant
manner in which they had been
treated. 1t is hoped by the boys that
Mr.. Wagner took down those Chi.
nese lanterns before they were burn
ed, as they can be usefully employed
on future occasion.

THE MEXICAN BORDER.
The Latess From the Scene Of Trouble on
the Rio Grande.

BROWNSVILLE. Tex, Dec. 29-Rumors
from the Mexican side of the Rio Grande
are to the effect that 4 600 Mexican govern
ment troops, stationed at Mier, revolted,
killed their commanding officers, and are
off to join Garza's band.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Dec. 29.-General
Stanley in command of this department.
has received instructions to use all the
troops at his command if necessary to sup
press the adherents Of GarZa, who are col
lecting in Carr and Duvai counties on the
border CARA has shown himself to be a
capable leader as, while avoiding pursuit
on both sides of the river, he has increased
his forces to such an extent as TO excite
alarm on both sides of the river
Captain Bourke is authority for the
statement that every Mexican on the
American side and the masses on the Mex
leo side are supporters of CARA. The fact
that the revolutionary leader is recruiting
followers from the American side increases
the responsibility of the American govern
ment. Authentic information was re-
ceived today that Cara and his
tered by Mexican rancherS near
Roma, Texas. Troops under Lieutenant
Langhorne left Rio Grande City and are
known to be scouting for Gar2a's head
quarters. The way matters look now,
very exciting developments may be eX
pected In short time, as the troops are
likely to come in contact with the revolu
tlonlsts now at any momenG.
LAREDO, Tex, Dec 29-Last evening
thlrty-Jhree car loads of Mexican troops,
comprising about 3U0 men, arrived in New
LrredO, Mex, from SalIiilo. This seems
to indicate that the reports of advantages
gained along the border by Cara are not
altogether wrong These newly arrived
troops will proceed down the river at once.
Two more companies of United States
troops are expected to arrive in this city,
and Will leave at once for the lower Rio
Grande, to aid in guarding the frontier
from invasion by revolutionists. A rumor
has gained circulation in the city that the
revolutionists who were captured by the
Mexican troops in a skirmish last night
were convicted and shot. Inquiry has
failed to trace the report to any reliable
source. Matters are rapidly growing
serious. Considerable uneHsiness is ex-
pressed for the company of United States
cavalry which left last Friday for some
point down the river without taking a
guide. Nothing has been heard from them
since their departure

AN OCEAN MYSTERY.

NORFOLK, Va, Dec 29.-Captin Hop
kins of the British steamer Ocean Queen,
which has arrived here, reports having
encountered a terrific gale in mid-ocean
on Monday, Dec. 81 Four of his crew
were lost Captain Hopkins reports that
on next morning he sighted large ocean
steamer flying signs of distress. The yes
sci, TO all appearances, was a passenger
steamer bound from Liverpool to New
York Owing g. a dense fog the Ocean
Queen was unable to go to her rescue.
When the fog lifted nothing more was
seen of the distressed steamer. A ships
compass encased in cork was picked up
afterwards. The initials ~. p. G. of Eng
land" were engraved upon the case. Cap
tain Hopkins is positive that the steamer
was wrecked.

Which Was It9

One of the best compliments a preach
.r can ever have is this: "He breaches
as if he meant every word he says !"
Nothing is quite so soon detected as in
sincerity in the pulpit. A western min
ster, who is not always so careful as he
ought to be in making his preaching
and his practice go together, was lately
telling some friends story of adven.
ture 1t was large story, and the
minister's little ten-year-old girl was
listening to it very intently. When he
finished, she fastened her wide-open
eyes upon her fathers face and said,
very gravely:
lis that true, or are you preaching
now, papa?'

A CANDIDATE FOR HEMP.

FORT SMITH. Ark, Dec. 29-The brutal
assassination of two men on Thursday
night was developed yesterday by the ar
rest of George L. Longley at South Nc
Alester, l. Il. Three men travelling in a
wagon were seen Thursday evening going
into camp near Wilburton. The next day
two stock hunters found the bodies of two
dead men near the camp. Their face were
terribly mutiated The wagon was fol-
lowed, and the arrest of LoDgley, while
trying to sell the wagon and team on the
streets of South McAlester resulted. Long
ley was jailed here today. He refuses to
talk except in the most indirect manner,
and no material answer can be gotten
from him, except that he formerly lived in
Washington county, Ark, and was raised
in Missouri. He is about % years of age,
and is appaseutly one of the worst cases
ever brought to this court.

one of the most important lines of railway
leading out of central Kansas as it will
give direct line to the gulf of Mexico and
also pass through large coal fields in the
Choctaw nation and Texas, which will
give better market for grain and cheaper
coal to the people of this part of Kansas.
This extension will also benefit Wichita,

A CHAMBER OF HORRORS.

The apartment TO which the unhappy
wretch is confined by infammatory rheu-
matism is indeed a chamber of horrors
Appalling are the Uortures inflicted by this
agonizing complaint, and those endured
by persons suffering from milder forms of
it are severe enough. Obstinate as it is in
its mature developments, it is surely
remediable at the outset with Hostetters' S
Stomach Bitters, an infinitely safer as well
as more effective remedy than the poisons
often used to subdue it. Always should it
be borne in mind by those seeking relief
from rheumatism, that though conquera-
bic in the incipient stage, it is not only
stubborn but dangerous when fully de-
veioped on account of its tendency to at
tack the vital parts. This consideration
should lead to the early adoption of cura-
tive measures. The Bitters will overcome
malarial, kidney, dyspeptic and bilious
trouble
