The Republic also prints a good
photograph of Breeding. This was
secured from st. Louis philatelic
journal, to which Breeding was a
contributor last year, and at that
time sent his photo for publication
by request of the editor. Young
Breeding was, about a year ago,
quite an enthusiastic philatelist
and numismatist, and edited for
awhile a small paper, which he
styled "Coin and Stamp" He be-
came a member of the San Antonio
Philatelic society but soon after re-
signed.
President Edward Heusinger, Of
this city, says during Breeding's
connection with philately in this
city there were certain dark sto-
ries of alleged fraudulent uses Of
the mails in selling fraudulent
stamps to outside parties and there
are two letters now in Mr.. Heusin-
gers possession in handwriting
Identical with DR.. Breeding's,
which are now held as in contro-
vertible proof by Mr.. H. that his
name was used illegally in the
stamp deal.
He was to have his hearing be-
fore Judge Price this morning, but
it will not take place until this af-

SALLIE ROYALS CASE.
The Damage Suit Against the City
on Trial.

The Damage Suit Against the City
on Trial.
A suit of Sallie Royal against
the city of San Antonio for damages
in the sum of 1884 is on trial be-
fore jury in the Forty-fifth District
court. The suit was caused by the
city moving her restaurant outfit
from the city market, and Sallie
claims that she has been damaged
to that extent by the city's actions.
She was placed on the stand this
morning and was the source of
considerable amusement. Bail
if Napier had all he
could do to keep order in court.
Sallie is one of the best known col
ored women in San Antonio, from
the fact that she has always been
"having trouble with the CITY,"
She is also not one of the wisest
creatures on earth.
When City Attorney Lewey
asked her If it was not fact that
by constantly using an article 1t
lessons in value, he referred to
Sallie's restaurant utensils, and
Sallie said: DWELL, I've got
some knives and forks which
have had for the last fifteen
years and they is now as good as
new, and If 1 show 'em to you
you'll say the same. l always
takes mighty good care Of every
thing I'se got" Sallie would start
of in that manner whenever
question was put her, and she could
not be made to answer the ques
lions directly. Even Judge King
was prone to take part in the
amusement on several occasions.
Sallie's feelings were touched
when Attorney Levy, referring
to a certain article, asked If II
was not common calico. She be
came dignified and said: No, sir
it wasn't no common calico, paid
two bits a yard for it and I'll take
you to the place where l bought
it If you don't believe me-" Mr.,
Levy assured her that he believed
her and said that he believed sh'
did not have anything common
around her place.

After Collectors of Customs.

The Federal grand jury reported
yesterday and was discharged. In
the report the jury suggested that
if collectors of customs would de-
vote their personal attention to a
more rigid enforcement of the laws
it would be less embarrassing both
to grand juries and the govern
ment in indicting and prosecuting
hundreds of petty cases of SNUG
CLING daily practiced on the Rio
Grande. The grand jury at this
session of court has found fifty-One

THE BREEDING CASE.
REQUIsITION SECURED FROM THE
GOVERNOR,
Case Before Federal Court-De
tective Allender Arrlves-A
Philatelic Episode.

The case against DR.. James B.
Breeding will be attended to in the
next few days by the detectives
and courts and it will be known
whether the young man will be
sent to st. Louis for trial or held in
San Antonio.
Detective Samuel Allender and
two assistants arrived on last
nights train and were in consulta-
tion with Detective Taft this
morning early. They are ensconced
at Mrs. YouDg's boarding house
where Breeding is also housed.
The st. Louis Republic has the
following in regard to the case:
"POstoflice Inspector John John
ston charges Breeding with using
the mails for fraudulent purposes.
The Identification of Breeding with
the forgeries was due to finding the
package Of circulars which it is
said he was foolish enough to throw
away. These circulars gave direc.
lions for the collection of the worth
less money orders, one of which
was sent out by "Trand, Smith &
Foster" with each order to the
bankers, attorneys, etc., selected as
the dupes. The package was one
which was received at the st. Louis
Wells-Fargo Express company's
Office for 81. B. Breeding" A man
who gave his name as Breeding
called and secured it. The next
day the same package was found
under an elevator fronting on thu
river at the foot of Mulanphy
street.
"The Trand, Smith g. Foster cir
culars were found in it.
"This cast suspicion upon Breed
ing. His home in San Antonio
Texas, was quickly located b.
Superintendent Simpson, but how
he refuses to reveal.
"The trial will disclose all this,a
it is part of the strong circum
stantial evidence against Breeding
When he is brought back to 81

DON,T, BORROW TROUBLE

Borrowing trouble is poor busi-
ness at the best; but of all the un-
satisfactory acknowledgements
occupations the very worst in the
world is borrowing trouble.
TO begin with it is based On fancy,
craDkiness, yaporings, undue ner-
vousness, or the mental or moral
id;osyncracies that should have been
trained out of the individual long
before the years of childhood were
passed. There are few people in
the world more depressing and die.
heartening than those who r ais
ways seeing some shadow of coming
evil. Tho world is sober enough
even at the best, and it is scarcely
worth while to 60 out seeking for
shadows, or to conjecture up purely
imaginary ones. AS a matter of
course, everybody must die some
day, but that is no reason why they
should be in a constant apprehen-
scnsion and never ending worry lest
i'll befal them while they are yet in
good health. However hard and
wearisome the path of life may be,
no one yet made it easier or smooth
by worry. 1t mean nothing more
nor less than paralysis of the bright
err side of many natures. Of course,
those who worry do so because they
are very unhappy and concerned
about somebody; but it may be cas-
ily questioned whether those they
ale worried about are not made
quite as unhappy as the worriers
themselves.

The New York Evening Post de-
clares that the reason why there il
NO Coxesites 10 the South is because
the white people will not permit the
negroes to form industrial organiza'
tons. There is not q word of truth
in this statement, because through
out the South the negroes belong to
quite q number OF labor organiza>
tons, anoug them the Knights OF
labor and the various unions of
skilled mechanics. 1t is a notorious
fact that it is impossible to prevent
o negro from joining some kind of
organization Or association, and
even the women are members of the
Breeding Doves of Zion and similar
societies. There is no Coxeyism in
the South simply because the people
are hard at work earning an honest
living, and this is the whole mat
ter in a nut she'll.
