STILL AFTER THE FIGHTERS.
Gov. Culberson Has Determined on War
to the Knife.

Gov. CulbersOn Has Determined on war
to the Knife.
DALLAS, Oct. 9.-W. N. Wheelock.
secretary of the Florida Athletic Club,
was served with papers this morning to
appear before the grand jury at Austin.
Papers are also out for William A.
Brady, manager ofFitzsimmons, and
presumably for Dan Stuart, Joe Vendig
and others, all of whom may be ar
rested before night.
The papers were issued on the
authority of article $50 of the Texas
penal code, which provides that con-
spiracy entered into in this state for
the purpose of committing felony in
another territory or state or in any
foreign territory, may be punished in
the same manner as if the conspiracy
was to commit the offense in this state,
the penitentiary for not less than two
or more than five years.
Governor Culberson and Attorney
General Crane have apparently deter
mined on war to the knife against
Stuart, and propose prosecuting him
and his associates at Austin ON an al
legged violation of the new anti-prize-
fight law, which makes prizefighting a
felony. 1t looks as if the only way out
the ground of unconstitutionality.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Some weeks ago, Ambrose Bierce
who writes column or two of "Prat-
tie" for the San Francisco Examiner
was thrown from bicycle and sus-
tanned injuries that have prevented
him attending to his work since. The
readers of that paper miss the bright
coruscations of his mind, although of
late he has allowed the reaching after
sarcasm to embitter his writings, and
to take too cynical view of things in
general, yet the keen wit and the two
edged ideas are sadly missed.
q Senator Squire has been visiting
Vancouver. 1t is astonishing what an
interest the senator is taking in the
Columbia just now-caused probably
by the fact that his term of Office is
about to expire. The senator is re-
ported to be in favor of opening the
Columbia, of the poat railway at Cello
but Is somewhat doubtful on Silver.
Either the senator has an opinion or
the financial question or he is fool,
and if he has an opinion and dares not
express it he is knaye. In either
case the people had better leave him at
home. Hon. John D. Geoghegan, of
Vancouver, would make good senator
ial timber if the Republicans carry the
next Legislature.
1t has been recently discovered that
General Grant and Jefferson Dayis
were cousins. Grants middle name
was Simpson. Grants mother was
Miss Hannah Simpson, daughter of
John Simpson and granddaughter of
William Simpson, of Bucks county,
Pa. John Davis married Ann Simp-
son. John Davis and Jefferson Davis
were from the same family tree, and
Grants mother and John Davis wife,
Ann Simpson, were from the same
tree, Though both the Grant and
Davis characters are sui generis, the
blood of the Simpsons and Of many
other good people coursed and courses
through the veins of each. There are
more than 500 descendants in the
United States at the present time, who
are about equally related to General
Grant and Jefferson Davis.

Post says in its financial review today
"One of the noteworthy incidents OF
the day was further advance in silver

consequence in that market since the
treaty of peace between China and
Japan last May. The price tenn

wards there is brewery owned and
run by P. Butt and John Booken, and
the brewers have been in the habit in
the past of throwing their refuse malt
and other beer leayings into the creek.
The waters, it is said, changed color,
and the quality was also altered to
such an extent that Russell's horses
and cattle were visibly Affected. They
were becoming drunkards and the
chickens and ducks reeled about with
jollity after partaking of the ripping
waters of the stream. At last Mr..
Russell forbade his family using the
milk from the COWS and complained
to the brewers. They could not under
stand how beer could hurt them, and
they did nothing. Russell has now
grown weary of talking about the
matter, and has filed suit in court |
asking that the brewers be perpetually |
enjoined from throwing their refuse
into the waters of the creek.
