whispered and muttered to himself,
the smoke of battle which had hung
for hours like black cloud over that
part Of the field hoated off before the
night breeze, and the purple canopy
was studded with bright stars. His
eyes saw them as well as mine, and
presently he cried out in a joyful way:

He was talking to one Of the bright
stars above him.
"And that's Mani" he went on, after

"Eatlr exclaimed the general "Did
you join the army merely to get some.

"Wall, that's about the size Of it."
"Here," calling an officer, ''give this
man something to eat, and then have
him shot"
The officer understood the joke, and
replied;
GAN right, general"
The Arkansas man, exhibiting no
alarm, said:
"Rile me a ham, cap'n, stew up a

ANOTHER CHANCE.
San Antonio Will Be Given Another
Opportunity to Secure
Road TO LianO.


The Board of Trade is in receipt of a
communication from prominent people in
Llano, informing the board that Colonel
w. A. II. Miller, r. B. Davis, III. &. But
terey, P. d. Allin, r. F. Holden and
George c. Call had been appointed com
mittee to see what could be done in refer
ence to securing the construction of an
extension of the Fort Worth and Rio
Grande railway, from Brentwood, via
San Saba, through LlanO and FrederickS-
burg to San Antonio, by connecting at
the Guadalupe river with the Arkansas
Pass railway.
This gives San Antonio not only an
other opportunity OF securing direct rail-
way connection with Llano and the north
western country, formerly tributary to
San Antonio, but it is believed that II this
road is secured, it will induce the Katy
to build into San Antonio without a
bonus.
The amount that will be required by the
Fort Worth and Rio Grande people will
be a S20O.OC0 bonus, and il San Antonio
will subscribe Sc, coo of this amount it is
believed that LlanO and the balance of
the country to be traverSed by the eXtCn-
sion will put up the balance. This is an
opportunity that should be embraced at
once with avidity by the business people
here, as the money spent by them for the
donation would be regained by an in
crease Of trade in less thar thirty days
after the extension is completed which is
expected to be during the current year.
