Pearsall, Tex. July 2S.-sheriff ]. w.
Durbin was before Justice Merriwether
this morning on examining trial for
killing Editor A. w. Carpenter yester-
day. 1t appears from the evidence that
the killing was from a misunderstood
ing over settlement OF accounts be-
tween them. No eye witness was
present, and Mr.. Durbin's testimony
goes to show that he acted in self-de-
Tense. Carpenter drew his pistol and
fired at short range just across table
at which Durbln sat II seems that
had It not been that Mr.. Carpenters
pistol was at fault, swapping several
times, that Durbin would have been
the dead man. The Justice held Mr..
Durbin TO await the action Of the next

THE MlDWlNTER FAIR.
1t Will Eave an Electrical Tower With
Over 5000 Liphts

1t Will Have an Electrical Tower With
Over 5000 Lights.
The Midwinter fair is assured Of hav-
ing a feature that will be quite as
unique as anything seen at Chicago. 1t
is to be an electrical tower 266 feet high
and containing lights enough to turn
night into day in Concert valley.
The framework of the tower will be
gracefully constructed and decorated
with over 5000 incandescent lights of
different colors. 1t will be supplied
with an elevator running to o height of
22O feet. There will be pavilions on the
ground floor for the use of the public.
Flanlzing the open space will be four
Moorish pavilions containing four stories
and decorated in oriental colors.
The base of the tower will occupy q
space 80 feet square, while the first gal
lery, so feet from the ground, will have
a seating capacity of 200. Three other
galleries will extend beyond this and
will seat several hundred persons. The
topmost gallery will be within six feet
of the pinnacle. In it will be a great
searchlight On the extreme top of the
tower will be placed a large gold ball
bearing the emblem of the state-a Cali
fornia bear.
Fully 5000 people can be seated on the
tower at one time, while on the outer
edge on the circular walk there will be
q Il TN
eight approaches to the tower, practi-
cally making it open on all sides and
corners.
While the principal object of the tower
is for lighting purposes, it will be used
as grand band stand, from which music
will be given throughout the day and
evening. The tower was designed by
Chicago architect, but all the work on
the structure will be done in San Fran
cisco. When completed, it will cost $780,

am somewhat surprised that writers
in our contemporaries speak of Lord Dun
raven as if he were a stranger on this
side the water. He has been here twice
before, besides touring westward among
the Rockies, and his book entitled the
"Great Divide" was among the most in
telligent contributions to contemporane-
Gus photography ever published. AS /
recall it, he first came here in 1870, when
he was known by his courtesy title, Lord
Adair, and again in 1875 as Lord Dun
raven. His seat in the peers is under
another title, that of an English baron,
his title of earl being Irish. Lord Dun
raven explored Canada and Newfound-
land on sporting tours thoroughly. He
was in the last Gladstonean ministry
and altogether is considerably more
than simple yachtsman.-Joe Howard.

SHE WORE TROUSERS.
San Francisco's Polite Mayor Acts the Gal

San Franclsco's Polite Mayor Acts the Gal
liant Against His VIII.
Mrs. de Forest, the lady who declares
her desire and intention to henceforth
walk the earth in pantaloons and other
masculine articles of attire in preference
to those usually considered as proper to
her sex, astonished Mayor Ellert by call
ing upon him at his Office recently. The
mayor, however, was soon relieved of his
fears as to what the visit might portend
by an explanation from the lady which
set him at ease. All she wanted was
that his honor would assure her of i'm
munity from arrest, as she was aware
that she had rendered herself liable to
being taken into custody owing to her
popularity of attire.
The modest mayor bashfully looked
at the floor while the lady explained her
errand, and then assured her that the
chief of police was the official to whom
she should apply.
"Indeedl" said the lady. "But where
will find him?"
cat the old city hall" said the mayor.
"But I'm afraid" said the lady, "that
he will not grant my request unless 1
come well recommended-we intro
duced, that is. Now, Mr.. Mayor" and
here the lady smiled very coaxingly,
"would you mind going with me to call
on the chief"
"Of course not, madam-that isl
mean to say-why, yes, certainly, GER
tainly."
But as he said it and thought of the
possibilities Of the trip down town so
accompanied his honor groaned in spirit.
So few minutes later the mayor was
seen to leave the city hall and start
down town accompanied by lady taste
fully attired in stovepipe hat, creased
pants, Willie boy coat with long tails
and everything else that goes to make
up modern everyday dude. No Won
der that his progress down town was at
tended by admiring glances from scores
of eyes.-San Francisco Examiner.
