Too much stress cannot be laid upon the great ad,
vantage to the ruit-grower of being in early locality.
In most cases it makes the difference between success
and failure. The industrious orchardist of Capay Valley
may assured that he will derive all the benefits gained
by the first fruit shipments of the season. and that &c
OF this rich land when the trees are in bearing
will yield handsome and assured income
The Capay Valley Land Company has an agent re-
siding in the valley whose duty to show the various
tracts to land seekers.
-Four townses have been laid out in different points
IN the valley viz: Esparto, Cadenasso, Gunda and
Rumsey. Town lots may now be purchased at reason
able prices and on easy terms.
The enterprising and ourishing town of Esparto is
situated at the lower end Of the valley and SI25 600
worth Of substantial buildings have already been erected
blocks and waterworks, with pipes laid in the streets
The town has a postofice, school-house and a weekly
paper, and the fine railroad depot contains telegraph
and express Offices
Postofhces have ase been established at Guinda and
Rumsey. This latter place. situated the head Of the

The trial of o. w. Buck, charged
with the killing of Charlie Fowzer on
the 23rd of January last, which COM
menced yesterday morning in the die
trict court was concluded this after
noon at 2 o'clock, resulting in an hon.
orable acquittal of the defendant.
Al the conclusion of the testimony
Judge Goodrich instructed the jury to
return verdict of not guilty, which
was at once done.
While all who knew anything
about the unfortunate affair which

thought by some to be upon his char

Mr.. Buck came to Waco from Sioux
Falls, Dakota, about two years ago
and entered into the hotel business, at
a time when the patronage of the
house was so run down as to cause
manys.to doubt the wisdom of the step

ed at ii O'Clock. So many threats
have been made that friends of the
prisoners would attempt some desper-
ate act, admission to the court room
was severely restricted, only those
personally known to the court Off
cials, and % witnesses being ad-
mitted. Most elaborate precautions
were taken by the authorities to
guard against any attempt to inter-
fere with the course of justice. When
Judge Cues entered he at once sum-
moned the jury, who presented q
greatly disturbed appearance, threats
of the friends of the prisoners having
evidently greatly frightened them.
After the jurors had taken their
places the prisoners, headed by Rava-
chol, were brought in, guarded by an
immense number of police.
The proceedings at once COM

When the reading of the indictment
was concluded Ravachal in noncha-
liant manner admitted his guilt, and
took upon himself the entire RESPONSE

Laredo Gives Assistance.

Special to The Statesman.
LAREDO, April 26.-A number of
gentlemen went up to the top of
high hill to the east of the city this
evening at 4 o'clock and exploded q
large amount of dynamite and giant
powder in the hopes of waking old
Jupiter Pluvius and secure downfall
of the much needed rain. The only
visible effect, however, four hours af-
ter the experiments, has been the dis
appearances of the last vestige ofa cloud
from the heavens. A large kite was
substituted for balloon in
raising the charges of dynam to.
Laredo has responded nobly to the
call for relief for the lower Rio Grande
sufferers. Up to date 5000 In money
and provisions have been forwarded
to the relief committee at Rio Grande
City. Some surprise is expressed here
at the tardiness with which San An
tonic and other interior cities have re-
sponded to this call to relieve actual
destitution and starvation.

THE RUSSIAN FAMINE.

LONDON, April Pa special cor.
respondent who is travelling in famine
districts of Russia writes from Kaza
under date of April 8 as follows:
"The province of Kazan has popula-
tion of twenty-one hundred thousand.
OF this total about three hundred
thousand represent Urban population
leaving eighteen thousand, whom
Zemstov is feeding, and my company
four hundred thousand. An epidemic
of fever is raging and peasants are be-
ing brought in in cart loads and the
hospitals are full. In all directions
most horrible sights meet the eye.
Young women are brought into town
in state of nudity except for some
scraps of mating that were thrown
over them in the cart. Destitution is
something terrible, and the streets
are filled with beggars. The question
that is giving most uneasiness at
present is the supply of horses. Tar
tars have eaten theirs, and horses OF
other peasantry have mostly been
killed for hides. The government is
going to grant 10000 horses to the
province, but that will be very little.
The situation in Kazan at present is
beyond description.

WITH A RAZOR.
A YOUNG MAN MAKES A DESPERATE
EFFORT TO DIE.
He Had Once Been Grocer, Travelling
Salesman and Book Agent-His
Conscience Bothered Him.

Special to The Statesman.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, April 26.-
Charles David Trowbridge, formerly
a prominent grocer of West Salem,
Ohio, but lately commercial traveller
for Columbus, Ohio, wholesale gro.
Gerry firm, made desperate and prob
ably fatal attempt to commit suicide
here this morning at the lodging
house of Kate Patterson. He is a
handsome, we'll dressed young fellow
of about % years, has been in San An
tonic about five weeks, going under
the name Of G. H. Johnson, and dur
ing that time has sold or canvassed
for book entitled forbidden Fruit"
He had been drinking heavily around
several of the sporting saloons for over
week, and has spent considerable
money. AT $3.50 o'clock this morning
Trowbridge, alias Johnson, was found
sitting in chair by window with his
throat cut half way around his neck
and the arteries of both wrists are cut.
The weapon that aided him to do his
work was an old razor which he said
belonged to his father. He was
squeezing the blood out of his veins
at the wrist with his fingers in order
to make the more flow. The razor
was lying on the window casing and
was covered with blood. The young
man could talk and when DR.. j. p.
Oldham arrived to attend to him,
which was after good deal of delay,
he asked him what was the matter,
He said his conscience troubled him
and he wanted to die and would try
it again. After he felt some
what revived, however, from
the loss of blood and was re-
moved to the city hospital
he changed his mind and wanted tc
live and begged the doctors to save
his life. He said he had overheard
peop threatening to kill him and
believed they were in his room. The
wound made by the razor in his neck
is high up under the Jaw on the left
side and is nearly two inches deep
laying the flesh open in a CHASTITY
| manner. Had the blade been sunk
in straight and a little lower on his
THROAT, not only his jugular vein, but
his windpipe would have been sew
cred. In his pocket was found a let
| ter to his wife at Columbus
Ohio, and written statement as
to the cause of the desperate
deed. 1t said that he was guilty of
using his employers money and left
Ohio to escape the shame of a public
exposure. Letters were also found Oh
him from the wholesale firm urging
him to return and take his old posi-
tion and all would be forgiven. The
officers have three letters and papers
and refuse to divulge the name of the
wholesale firm for whom Trowbridge
worked. The latter is very weak ano
there is little prospect of his recover
ing. He states that his relatives are
very wealthy and are well known il

THE EXPLOSION.

PARIS, April 26.-The explosion
last night at the cafe of M. Very, at
the corner of Boulevard Magenta and
Rue Lanery, has thrown the people of
Paris into panic. The anarchists
restaurant was wrecked and also the
shop of Madame Moranze, dealer in
second hand goods, next door. At
the time of the explosion there were
eleven persons in the restaurant, in
Guiding three workingmen, who were
slightly bruised. The scene in the
vicinity surpassed description
throughout the night, and this morn
ing excited crowds, sometimes num-
bering 10000 filled the streets and
surrounded the wrecked restaurant.
The affair was discussed in loud and
angry voices. Everybody Joined in
condemning the outrage. The police
are utterly powerless to keep the
crowd back. Thousands were
anxious to view the ruins. Shattered
pieces of wood were eagerly seized
upon as relics. Finally the crowd
became so large it was necessary to
call upon the military. A 70 CO of
infantry was dispatched to the scene
and the presence Of troops resulted in
dispensing the crowd. The report
that M. Very had died was incorrect.
1t is said at the hospital today that
his recovery is impossible. His wife
and daughter were sadly burned
about the faces but their condition is
not so serious though, they are suffer-
ing from the shock. Paul Hammond,
printer, who was in the restaurant
at the time of the explosion, is horri-

critical. Another man named Gludon
