Revolutionists on Texas Soil.


Kevolutionists on Texas Soil.
LAREDO. Tex, Dec. 26.-Considerable ex.
element was created by the receipt of a
telegram from New Laredo. over the Mex
lean line, announcing that West and his
company of United States troops came up
on band of bandits encamped near Alazan
creek and killed ono and wounded an
other. Further particulars are to the
effect that the troops came upon the camp
first at nightfall on Christmas evening.
The bandits were ordered to surrender,
but fed instead, delivering a scatter
ing volley as they ran for their horses. So
far as 1t is known, none OF the troops were
killed. The soldiers returned the fire. with
the above result. 1t is not known how
badly the bandits were wounded. The
United States troops captured a large
amount of arms and ammunition and
few horses. After the fight, owing to
the darkness, the trail could not be fol-
lowed, and in the morning it was found
that the bandits had scattered in all de
rections.
A letter has been received from Laredo
stating that several times Mexican soldiers
had crossed San Ygnacio to that part
armed to the teeth, and compelled several

San Ygnacio fight, to return to Mexican
soil with them, threatening them with
instant death if they refused. The
soldiers who were in the San Ygnacio
tight were afraid to return to Mexico for
tear of being shot as deserters. This ac-
ton of the Mexican troops is entirely
unWarranted and is breach of the inter-
national law which may lead to serious
international complications in the future.
The Saloon Porter's Christmas Present.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 26.--It has just de-
veioped that daring robbery of the safe
in the saloon kept by c. J.
Miles at Kearney and California
streets occurred early Sunday morning
The police are searching for George
Dixon, who was porter in the saloon.
There was $40 in the drawer IN the safe
which was in the card room attached
to the saloon. 1t is believed that Dixon
had made himself familiar with the
combination and opened it while a
large number of people were
in the saloon. The drawer and money
were both taken, and the man walked out
of the saloon with the package under his
arm. He has not been seen since.

They should have lived in the good old

Wilmington Messenger.

Colonel Fairbrother, of THE DURHAM
GLOBE, and Col. A. Hatchett, formerly of
the Henderson Tomahawk, will begin on
September l to publish at Durham a
twenty-page journal to be called The To-
bacco Plant. The editors announce that
sit will be devoted to the trade interest of
this section, and especially to tobacco
news. Its subscription price Of 80 cents
puts it in the reach of-all, and a large cir
culation is assured. We shall print ) 900
the first issue, and hope to add to this
number weekly. We propose to give
more matter, more neatly printed, than
any other journal of the kind in the South,
and to make it the advertising medium
of this section" Both are experienced
journalists, but Colonel F~airbrOther is a
well known farmer also, if not a meflber
of the alliance, and he will give the public
the benefit of what he knows about farm
ing" His celebrated Yam Farm" near
Durham is now one of the constitutions
of that section. OF course we wish the
new entur all possible success.

keep one hard at it all day and partly into
the night. If so-and it is so many and
many times, why not take part of he
night for a little real enjoyment. That is
all we get anyway-there is no if or md
about the business. Life is not as long a
thread as we would suppose. 1t may be
marked two hundred yards, but when we
unwind it and weave our subtle pattern
as best we may, we yet find that the
spool was thicker thar We thOught-the
end was nearer than we dreamed. But
no matter. Men 60 on in their mad, blind
way-they want to inherit the earth and
the fulness thereof-but one day there
comes a gentleman, an urbane cid cuss
with long whiskers and a scythe in his
hand-why, | wonder, doesn't he have a
reaper and mOwer-and he explains to
you that himself and Colonel Death will
yank you hence-gather you to your
fathers and your grandfathers and your
greatgrandfathers and your sisters and
your cousins and your aunts. And you
cannot say to those two grim messengers,
wait a minute, | will be there pretty
soon If you are milking the cow she
will remain unmilked for all of you if
you are writing a piece for the paper that
will make no difference-the editor will
escape; if you are doing anything or
everything when those two fellows come
and say hands up'-up they go and your
name is PantZ
"All this | know to be true and | Say
that we are all foolish to struggle SO hard

ahead of us. 1t may be dark in twenty
minutes-you may sleep beneath the trees
and a bob-tailed hog may be roofing on
your grave within a short time. Better
enjoy life while you glide and slide along.
The bitter banks of time are not deli
ciOus-yet we want to hang on to EN-
we want to be here. 1t is my opinion
that late hours are good for the body and
good for the soul. Go to bed late and
sleep a little later. If the band wagon is
going to pass let it pass. You are not
obliged to see it or hear the boys DOT
their brass as they say. Because, my

A SPOKANE CASE,

Mary 9. Cunningham, appellant, VS.. R.
Duncan ct al, respondents. No. 597, filed
July 6, 1892 From Spokane county.
1t is exceedingly difficult to determine
from the testimony in this case whether or
not the plaintiff has any equities which
can be enforced, so far as the defendants,
Murphy and Tabor, are concerned. In the
absence, however, of an affirmative opinion
to the contrary, we will accept the conclu-
siOns of fact of the judge who tried the
case, as correct so far as they were stated
SO far as the demands of the plaintiffs, ].
R. and Sarah e. Duncan, are concerned,
we are of the opinion that the plaintiff
should have Judgment for the sum of 5000
with interest thereon since October %, 1890
The only question involved then, is, can
the court, upon the failure of the petition
for specific performance, assess damages in
lieu thereof?
Without going into general discussion
Of this interesting question, which was re-
viewed at some length by this court in
Morgan ct al VS.. Bell, Washington, the
testimony in this case leads us to the con-
clusiOn that plaintiff was unaware of the
inability of the defendant to convey, by
reason Of the mortgage to Bibb, until after
the commencement of the action, and that
the suit was commenced in good faith,
which we think entities her, especially con-
sidering all the circumstances of the case,
to Judgment for the money she had paid.
Inc QeIenQanJS, duncan, rely largely on
the case of Drown VS.. Ingels, decided by
this court at its January term, and reported
in Sd Washington. But nothing that was
decided in that case affects the case at bar
In that case time was made the essence of
the contract, and it was especially agreed
that if certain deferred payments were not
paid when due, plaintiff would forfeit all
the money paid down, and all her rights
under the contract. But here there was no
such agreement, and the action of both
parties plainly shows. that time was not
understood TO be the essence of the CON
tract
The judgment Of this court is that the
defendants Alonzo M. Murphy, Mrs.
Alonzo M. Murphy, R. G. Tabor and Mrs
r. G. Tabor have and recover of the
plaintiff Mary G. Cunningham for their
costs of this appeal, and that the plaintiff,
Mary G. Cunningham, have and recover q
Judgment against the said defendants J..
R. Duncan and Sarah E. Duncan for the
sum of $780, with interest on the same at
the rate of 10 per cent. per annUm since
the 23d day of October, 1890, together with
the costs of appeal, and costs of trial in the
lower court; and that the defendants Tabor
and Boyer and Sivyear have judgment
against the defendants ]. r. Duncan and
Sarah E. Duncan for their costs of the
lower court, and it is so ordered.
