MORE TROUBLE FROM CARA,
VERY SIGNIFICANT THAT HIS BAND
STILL EXISTS.

1t Means There Is Something Wrong Some
where-why Texans Object to Diaz's
Proposition-The Political Ferment In
Ascension.
EAGLE PASS, Tex, Jan 11-Reports
from Torrson confirm the news that the au-
thorities are on the outlook for trouble.
Yesterday the rurals brought in 18 sus-
picious characters and took them to Chihua-
hua, where they will be placed in the army.
The suggestion of Minister Romero that
Mexican troops be permitted to cross to this
side in pursuit of Cara revolutionists
would meet with protest from border lnhab-
itants. The Mexican Government has
law which permits guards to shoot
q prisoner who attempts to escape, and
this has been observed down the river on the
Mexican side to such an extent that those
thought to be in sympathy with Cara to
the number of 80 or 100 have fallen victims
to their captors.
It is understood an investigation will be
made of the contents of car on the Texas
Mexican Railroad, consigned to Los Ange-
les, Encilla county, and marked "Soap.
Los Angeles is a small station and has not a
dozen inhabitants, therefore no one in that
neighborhood had any use for such an
amount of soap. Suspicious were aroused,
and it is thought the car contains ammuni-
tion for Garza's men.
As straws show which way the wind
blows, it would seem that the Mexican
Government, or parties conversant
with the situation, think develop
ments of startling nature will soon
transpire in the heart of the Republic.
There is evidently something wrong some
where, or Garza's handful of men would
have been annihilated long ago
Much excitement prevails regarding the
situation at Ascension. Colonel Sanganez,
General Polstico and his private secretary,
Senor Feria, arrived at Deming, N. NJ,
from Juraz and Immediately left the city
for Ascension. 1t is expected that at Pono-
mas, across the river, they will be Joined
by armed customs guards. A detachment
of 100 troops has been ordered across the
country from the City of Chihuahua, and is
moving by forced marches, and
may be expected to strike Ascension
from the south Wednesday. The
presence of Colonel Saganez may
have the effect of quieting the disturbance,
which the Mexican officials insist is purely
local in character and has no political sig
nifcance.
On the other hand, sympathizers have
insisted that Remjosais, who leads the
insurgents, is not only a capable man but
large owner of property who
cannot now afford to hesitate;
that such discomfort prevails, and that his
original band of so men will be rapidly re-
inforced and swell to the propo rtions of an
army.

REVIvALIsTs ARRESTED.
Long E1hortations Are Not Relished by
the New Englanders.

NEWTON, MASS, Jan. 1L-[Special. i
Two good men from Maine undertook to
run praise service at the Newton Lower
Falls Methodist Church last night, and for
a while they created the liveliest kind of a
rumpus by their vigorous and long con-
tinued battle with the devil The older of
the two suddenly arose and addressed the
congregation. He spoke earnestly and
with fervor that went straight to the
hearts of his hearers. He took up some IL
minutes and sat down. The other man at
once arose and proceeded to arraign the sim
full world much in the fashion of his com
panion. He spoke Is minutes and sat down.
If the revivalists had been satisfied with
this all would have been well, but thev
were not. Number stood again and sub
jected his hearers TO Is minutes of exhorta-
tion, only to be followed again by No. 2.

Finally the pastor, Raw John Peterson,
thinking his flock had had enough, re-
quested the vehement religionists to cease.
They refused The two men alternated in
their attacks on Satan and mammon. An
usher called the police and the two revival
lists were locked up. They gave their names
as Willis A. and Charles E. Rich, brothers,
and said they came from Maine.
When Judge Kennedy asked them If
they were guilty they replied in unison;
eff praising God is legal offense. then we
are guiltv.' The Court thought that they
were guilty of disturbing a religious meet
ing, and after admonishing them never to
do so again in Newton, he fined them 81
each. They paid and departed.

BETWEEN SATAN AND THE SEA.
The Law Says Texas Railroads Must Handle
Aransas Pass Business.

SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Jan. 1.-THE
strike situation looks gloomier than ever
The failure of the conference between the
management of the Aransas Pass Railroad
and the representatives of the strikers to &C.
complish satisfactory results, has tended to
widen the breach, and the belief is general
that if in "a hours some agreement
is not reached the employees of the other
roads centering here, who have pledged the
strikers support, will tie up
those roads rather than handle
coal or freigh. of the Aransas Pass.
The railways centering here have notified
their employees that under the law railway
companies are compelled to handle each
others business, and the employees have
notified the company that they will not
handle the Aransas Pass supplies or
freight.
If a settlement is not reached, the tie-up,
which will likely be the result, bids fair to
outrival the general strike of eight years
ago. The Federation Committee from
Yoakum are expected here to-day.

"A curious phenomenon known as float
ing prairies prevails in Southern Louisiana.
All along the Gulf coast the large border OF
land floats on the surface of the water. The
land is made by fallen timber and grasses.
1t gradually aocumulates earth, and becomes
in the course of time sufficiently firm to sup
port bushes and even Irees; but the soil is
only three inches or a little less thick, and
below it is the water, upon which it floats
on account of its extreme Hghtness. Oc-
casionally pieces Of trembling prairie are
detached, and become floating islands.

What a Band Costs,

A piccolo, the smallest instrument en-
ployed, costs from $40 to $50, cornet from
SIS up, while the large horns cost from $500
to 5000, and the other instruments are pro-
portionately expensive. A band of 80 pieces
will probably have $4,000 invested in their
instruments.

PHGNIx, ARIz., Jan. 1.-THE Florence
