AUSTIN LETTER.
AUSTIN, Tex, July 5, 1892.

AOSI1Ns LEA, July d lo0A.
Austin and its vicinity celebrated
with true patriotic enthusiasm the
Fourth, in spite of the discomforts of
q blazing sun and clouds of dust. A
grand barbecue at Hyde Park, under
the auspices of the Butchers associa-
ton, was an attraction which drew
hundreds of every class and color
thither. A bycicle race and tourns-
ment were watched and participated
in with great enthusiasm, but the
browning glory of the day was q
cattle roping contest, which was
thoroughly novel and exciting.
The proposed sale of lots by the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas Land &
Town company took place, resulting
in the sale of lots to the amount OF
$1,000. The festivities were closed
by ball at night.
The dam Is always favorite
resort for Austin people, and at the
least excuse they fairly flock there.
The announcement of sail-boat race
on the lake at six O'Clock, was enough
to bring out q great number. The race
proved q rather tame affair, as there
was scarcely any breeze, but the

the lake, till every available craft
was full and the steamers were kept
plying busily. 1t was gala day for
the boat oW nsrs. At night a magni-
ficent pyrotechnic display was
watched by several thousand people.
Any lake is a novelty, and to those
who have heretofore had to take their
pleasures on dry land, it is al.
ways an agreeable one. Real

ance, and the affair proved so thor.
oughly delightful that 1t is doubtless
the forerunner of many more as pleas
ant. The county convention met
here at 10 o'clock on Saturday the I'd.
The work In hand was the nomination
of county officers and instructing of
delegates to the judicial and senate
rial conventions. The nominations
were as follows: Morris, for district
Judge, Burleson, district attorney.
Tips, state senator, McFall and Whe.
lers, representatives., Walker, county
attorney and Hart district clerk.

Ran over Her,

Yesterday morning at about o'clock
Charlie Hume, the 15-year-old by of Mr..
Thos. Hume, superintendent of the |. &
G. n. railway, mounted his pony and
started to get a man to clean up his faith
er's premises. On returning from the
mans house his pony started for run,
and as the boy had only halter he could
net hold it. The horse ran down West
Houston to San Marcos street, which
latter it turned into. About thirty yards
from the corner stood a small crowd of
Mexican women and girls and into these
the horse dashed, knocking down one old
lady and hurting her badly.
An affidavit was filed against the boy
and this morning the case was dismissed
by the recorder, as the horse was running
away and the boy was doing his best to
stop him.

Nav Cause q Delay.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April n.-Secretary
Noble was informed by wire that several
thousand settlers had already located on lands
in the Cheyenne and Arapahoe country south
of the South Canadian river. This may be at
tended with serious results, as owing to the
wording of the original Oklahoma bill based
on treaties, the country south of the Canadian
is not subject to the sooner law. No one en-
dangers his rights there by attempting to
make settlement prior to the proclamation
formally opening the country to settlement.
Despite this fact the secretary is very ener-
getic in his efforts to protect the interests of
the settlers who respect the spirit of the law.
It is thought he may call on the war depart
ment to remove all intruders, as this is the
only power he has to meet the present emer-
gency.
The intruders from that section may be re-
moved if found, but their efforts to secure an
advantage in no way jeopardizeS their inter-
ests IN securing patent from the govern
ment. The secretary says this feature of the
situation is evidently known to the settlers,
as SO far there are no reports of attempts to
make settlement in the country north of the
South Canadian.
Delegate Harvey is afraid the secretary
will not allow the country to be opened to
settlement until after the intruders are re-
moved, and this will force delay. Of the
Cheyenne and Arapahoe country, about two
thirds of it is not subject to the sooner law.

The sussender of their surplus land to tho
government. These Indians are barbarous
and unpro0ressive, and occupy q reservation
OF 10000 acres of the very finest farming
land lying IN the center of the Cherokee strip.
The commission labored with them for over
three weeks without making any progress
whatever, but White Eagle, the leading chief,
took his land in severalty and agreed to treat.
Miss Helen Clark, the Blackfoot allotting
agent, has induced most of the women men,
bers OF the tribe to pick their land so that if
a treaty is made there will be very little de-

HoOSier Veterans,

FoRT WAYNE, IND, April 1.-THE Indiana
encampment of the Grand Army of the Re-
public, held in thus city, is pronounced o
great success, delegates being in attendance
from all over the state. Resolutions were
adopted requesting Secretary Noble to have
the rule of the pension Office set aside which
requires the evidence or testimony of two
privates in pension cases to equal the testi-
mony of one commissioned officer. Also
recommending the passage by congress of q
service pension bill of S. per month to all
soldiers who served ninety days or over, this
being the same bill as has been approved by
tional G. A. r. at Columbus, Milwaukee and
Boston.

Combined Against Combinations.

Combined Against Combinations.
CHICAGO. April Tt has just leaked out
here that combination has been formed, or
is being formed, between the Vanderbilt and
Pennsylvania lines in the east and the Chi
cago, Burlington & Quincy, Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul, Chicago & Northwestern
and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe in the
west, by which these companies agree to dis
continue the payment of commissions to
each others agents. The consideration is the
division of an interchange of passenger bust
ness In accordance with an agreement en-
tered into a few weeks ago. and which means
the exclusion, so far as possible, of all other
lines from participation in the business. The
roads that are to be practically boycotted by
the arrangement are the Rock Island, Chi
cago, st. Paul d Kansas City and the Chicago
d Alton in the west, and the Grand Trunk,
Erie, Baltimore d Ohio and connecting lines
in the east It is plain to be seen that this is
snother attempt on the part of the Pennsyl
vania and Vanderbilt system to do away with
the payment of passenger commissions to
ticket agents, and they have secured the as
sistance Of the four strongest roads west of
Chicago. If by this deal they can force the
other lines to surrender. peaceful solution
of the commission question may be expected,
but nobody seems to anticipate such an out
come, at least until after hard fight.

Lesson for Washers,

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 12.-News was
received at the navy department that Lieu
tenant ]. H. Hetherington, of the United
States navy, has been acquitted on the charge
of killing Mr.. Robinson, an Englishman, at
Yokahoma, about two months ago.
A cablegram from Commander J. R. Bart
lett, commander of the Marion, gave briefly
the information that Hetherington had been
acquitted by the consular court at Yokahoma
before which he was tried. This action set
ties the case finally, as there is no other tri-
bunal than the consular court that has juris-
diction in such q matter.
Hetherington, it will be remembered, is the
Lieutenant in the navy who shot and killed
Robinson, prominent member of the Eng
lish colony, on the ground that the latter had
been unduly intimate with Mrs. Hetherington.

Blackmailing Police.


New York, April THE action of the
grand jury in returning presentment against
the police force of this city for corrupt prac-
tees, was the direct result of the sermons
and Investigations of the Rev. DR.. Parkhurst
That divine, about six weeks ago, startled his
congregation and the city by vigorous ser
mon of the denunciation of the evils which
were virtually licensed by the authorities of
the city through system of blackmail. It
then developed that he had made one or two
visits to the dives.
The first pulpit assault of Dr.. Parkhurst
met with such an enthusiastic public recep-
ton that he renewed the stunning" expe-
ditions, and, in company with detectives, Wis
tied gambling dens and disreputable houses.
It is said that he furnished the money with
which the detectives engaged in play, and IN
one disreputable house paid $50 for liquor. of
which he partook of glass of beer.
AS result of the continued sermons, the
recent grand jury took the matter up and DR..
Parkhurst and his assistants appeared before
it and gave sensational testimony.

An Old Question Settled.

III OIU QU0SIICI1 06ICI6Us
TOPEKA, April 1.-THE supreme court has
decided that board of county commissioners
cannot designate an official county paper for
a term longer than one year.
The case by which this is decided is from
Butler county, where Alvah Sheldon, editor
and publisher of the Walnut Valley Times,
brought mandamus proceedings IN the su-
preme court to compel the present county
commissioners to recognize contract made
last year by which his paper was made the
official county paper for two years. The new
board refused to do this and made the Indus
trial Advocate the official paper.
The supreme court sustains the action Of
the commissioners and denies the writ asked,
saying that one board of commissioners can
take no action of that character binding up
on their SUCCESSORS.

men who are emerging from the drifts of the
late blizzard report tremendous losses.
The largest loss on any one range was !, 200
head that drifted into the North Platte and
were drowned. They belonged to various
owners.
Along the Union Pacific tracks lie the car
casses OF scores of cattle which drifted away
and grew weak from lack of grass and were
unable to eat the hay carted to them.
:, In the northern part of the state where cat
tie could find shelter in canyons there were
comparatively light losses except among
yearllngs on trains or being driven to mar
ket and among COWS with young calves.

push his bill just the same, and if successful,
its provisions will operate at the opening of

A Crank Burglar,

CHICAGO, April 1.-THE latest criminal SEN
sation is burglar who destroys, but does MOI
carry away plumber. During the past few
DAYS numerous cases have been reported OF
houses being entered and all the dresses and
lace curtains being slashed to pieces with
knives, jewelry broken and stamped upon,
and costly vases smashed in pieces. From
the manner in which the houses are entered
it is evident that the despoiler of jewelry and
costly fabrics has full equipment of skele-
ton keys and other burglars tools. Nothing
is eve. missed from the houses into which he
effects an entrance, but he never leaves until
his mania for destruction has been amply
atisfied
