TELLS HIS TROUBLES.
The Lot of a Ticket Agent is Not a
Happy One.

This morning as reporter for

ct office of the Southern Pacific rail-
way he observed that the agent,
Mr.. John Knight, wore troubled
look. The reporter did not have
time to call a policeman for the
agent to tell his troubles to and
volunteered to listen to him HIM
self, and here is what they were
and what Knight said:
81 suppose you newspaper men
think that a newspaper mans the
only one who ever finds out any
thing, but there is just where you
are wrong. You see this pile of
letters, don't you. Well the first
on is from San Francisco. Now
the fare from San Antonio to San
Francisco is $35, but the rule don't
work both ways. | was paid $50
for a ticket to San Antonio from
San Francisco, which was ALL re-
uuired to be paid by the purchaser
who sent it to friend whom he
wanted to come here and 10 and
behold, | have been notified that
while the fare from here to San
Francisco is only $50, that the
fare from there here is So.
I also was telegraphed to send
two tickets from Lockhart to San
Antonio and the fare from
San Antonio to Lockhart be-
ING 50 | collected that amount
and now l have been notified that
the fare from Lockhart to San An
tonic is $2.l5 and of course, have
to notify the purchaser that am
out 3Oe or lose it, but here is the
worst of all. | am out $3.50 on the
other transactions, but am %
ahead on a ticket that has worried
me worse than all the balance. L
was called on to- get a
ticket for a person from AT
lanta, Georgia, to San Antonio and
the rate in the class of ticket re-
uuested from San Antonio to At
lanta being $2j. | collected that
sum and RENTED it and the price
for such a ticket to San Antonio
from Atlanta being $24.95 the five
cents has been RENTED to me, but
have to write eleven or eight let
ters about it and hunt up the lady
to whom the five cents belongs.
I am not kicking about the $3.50
because the rates to San Antonio
are cheaper than from it, but L am
kicking about the five cents sur
plus in the treasury, and the
trouble the surplus involves.

Great Event in the Deer Paddock Yester-
day-Two Lovely Little Fawns.

There was a great event in the deer
paddock at Deering Oaks about o'clock
last evening, and it created no little in
terest and excitement among the docile
inhabitants of the paddock. Mr.. Deer
and three Mrs. Deer dwell there in great
concord and domestic happiness. Yes
terday afternoon to one of the Mrs.
Deer was born pair of little twin fawns;
diminutive but lovely little animals that
will in due time become the great attrac-
tons of the paddock. Park Commits
sioner Smith was at once informed of
the event; and fastened to the paddock
to see that the patients had every atten-
ton. He found the little fawns of the
regulation fawn color, and each about as
big as a cat, although of a vastly diff
ferent form of course. Commissioner
Smith shut the mother and twins up by
themselves; but they will be let out
where all the little folks may see them.
It is whispered in domestic circles at
the Oaks that there may be more little
deer at a very early date.
Mr.. Andrew J. Rich has presented to
the park commissioners a fine talking
parrot, which the commissioners intend
to put in compartment of the monkey
cage at the Oaks. The parrot has had
good bringing up, and uses no bad
language at present.
