black cur with white breast, and
first made its appearance on Arbuck-
lie creek where it bit dog belong
ing to Charley Gibson; then through
to George Perry's biting his dog,
and several others in the neighbor-
hood; then to Henderson, when it
bit nearly every dog in the town,
and the owners of some are taking
the proper precaution and killing
of their dogs. After leaving Hen
derson the dog continued on down
the Ohio River road. Be on the
lookout for him.

An Excellent Show.

Pawnee Bills Wild West Show
pitched its tents on the Eastside
Hats, Thursday, and all day the
grounds were thronged with eager
spectators. Both afternoon and
evening performances were largely
ATTENDED and all were thoroughly
pleased with the exhibition. All
the different phases of frontier lite
were protrayed in realistic and
thrilling manner, and for an ex hi
oltlon OF its kind it is the best that
ever visited Warren. The daring
riding and feats of horsemanship
exhibited by bands of Indians, cow
boys and MeXicans, was of high
order, and filled the hearts of all
with admiration. The boomerang
throwing by the Australian bush
men was a novel feature and de-
serving of special commendation.
in short the entire performance
from start to finish was excellent,

London, September 4.-In the de
bate in the House of Lords today
on the second reading of the Irish
land purchase bill Viscount Clifden
said that the measure appeared to
him to be one for the relief of evict-
ed tenants, who, he said, were the
scum of their class and who amused
themselves by cutting off the hair
OF women and shooting old men,
He hoped that the bill would be re-
jected, Baron Halbury expressed
regret that such language should
have been employed in this debate,
The only question at issue, he said,
was on continuing in operation an
act which otherwise would expire
with the lapse of time, The bill
passed its third reading.

Regular Correspondence of THE HERALD.

WI l'tl sc nun DSI Vi llle Qeul-
ocrats in the Legislature We're
fighting mad Saturday when
they saw Governor Culberson's
last veto message in cold type.
The reading of it the day be
fore stirred them up but the
matter in print set them to boil
Ing over and the Governor has
been roundly denounced on all
sides. The message was the
veto Of the act to sanction and
ratify the title of the Texas
and New Orleans railroad com
pany TO the railroad and cor
porate rights and franchises Of
the Sabine and East Texas rail
way company, and to authorize
the Texas and New Orleans
railroad company to purchase,
own and operate the railroad of
the Louisiana Western Exten-
sion railroad company. The
section of the message that
caused the ire Of the law max
ers to rise to a livid lurid heat
was the following.
Not satisfied with owning
the stock and directing the cor
porate affairs, this company,
taking courage from successes
elsewhere, now openly seeks to
consolidate these lines. To this
end, among other things, it has
established an adroit and eX-
perienced lobby at the capital,
which has proceeded with the
work Systematically and per-
sistently, and with such ef'ront
cry, indelicacy and holiness as
to excite more than marked
comment by legislator and the
public. Every intelligent and
conscientious legislator will
welcome reliable data and in
vite high minded argument
upon intricate and difficult leg
islation, but it is gratifying to
know that the inSinuating and
importunate methods, the con
slant and indecorous attend
ance upon committees, the UNI
seemly liberties and familiarity
taken and assumed in the leg
islative chambers, the resort to
every species of Establishment
by which supposed personal
obligations may be created, and
the lavish and indiscriminate
use of the pass, of this lobby,
have justly provoked condem-
nation by large number Of
the legislature
Legislators declare they will
pass the bill over the veto. Ger
tain it is, an effort will be made.
to do so The bill is one ask
ed for by the people of Texas
living along the lines of rail
road involved as they believed
the consolidation will benefit
the roads in the way Of putting
them i'll better order.
The fee bill has lost its place
on the calendar, but Mr.. Hunt
has given notice that he will
try and call it UP next Thurs
day. IFS final fate is very
doubtful but it looks as if it
will fail to pass.

lows, after being for fourteen
years a fugitive from justice
turned up here Friday to the
establishment Of every body
who knew him and surrendered
to the officers. In 1881 he was
indicted for embezzling several
thousand dollars from the Aus
tin Building and Loan Associa-
ton, of which he was secretary
and treasurer. He escaped from
the officers one night and sue
ceeded in reaching Mexico,
where in 1882 he was KIDNAPPED
and arrested by the sheriff of
Cameron Co. ana brought back
to Austin, where he remained
in Jail several months. On his
trial he contended that under
the treaty with Mexico he could
not be brought back TO Texas
for enlightenment, and the court
sustained his plea and gave
him four days in which to again
reach Mexico. Since then but
little has been heared Of him.
His wife a well known and pop
uiar lady, last year quietly
secured a divorce from him,
and subsequently some one
passing through here from Mex
leo. stated that Blandford was
dead, the informer saying that
he was with him at the time
and saw him buried, and his
wife and two daughters, now
grown, and his friends have be-
lieved him dead, and their as
constituent at his return has
been great, his wife being ut
terly Frustrated. 1t turns out
that for the past six years he
has been in Savannah Ga, en-
gagged in the work Of civil en-
gineering in the service of that
city and county. AS such Off
cial it is said that he has handl-
ed large sums of money, and
he appears to be very popular
with Savannah people, at least a
portion of them. Some weeks
ago, however, it was learned to
day, an official from Savannah
reached this city. and making
himself known to certain off
GERS, he made very searching
enquiries as to Blandfords char
acter and reputation. Securing
his information he left and
nothing more has been heard
of him. 1t is given out today,
however, when he returned TO
Savannah he gave Blandford to
understand that he knew Of his
Texas career and Blandford
stated to the officers this morn

for him unless he strikes bonanza.
Then his insanity will be none the
less intense. but it will not be so pro

crazy? Well, its evident that you
have never been in the western coun-
try. Out where mountains are piled
on top of each other, those qualities
abound. 4 man who is quartz crazy

fers hardships and overcomes more
obstacles than did all the knights who
ever searched for the Holy Grail. He
will leave home, family friends and
comfort, and all alone, with meager
supply of provisions and few tools
he will plunge into unknown wildner-
ness, and when he finds a place that
holds out mineral prospect, be will
burrow in the treacherous mountain
like a rabbit and dig from daylight
to dark, expecting with every stroke
of his pick to uncover his expected
fortune. Nearly every prospector in
the west, or the rest of the world for

ady l have described. Some of them
keep up their ceaseless search with
every recurring season and some
times strike good thing. In such
cases, somebody else, the party who
has the money to develop the find,
reaps the profits.

Knowing Burros.

NUMEROUS stories of the tricks of
burros are related. The owner of
one burro train usually turned the
animals loose on Saturday night to
shift for themselves over Sunday In
the herd were two grizzled patriarchs
designated as Grandpa Burro' and
"Grandma Burro.' The former was
shrewd old fellow and invari-
ably turned up missing on Monday
morning, while the rest of the herd
were always on hand. Frequently
Grandpa would be found hidden a
mile or more from camp behind some
big rock or dense clump of bushes.
He was loath to go to work, and
knew as well as human being what
would be expected of him on Monday
morning.
Grandma Burro' objected strenu-
ously to the tight buckling of straps
around her body in fastening on the
packs, and had a trick of sucking in
her breath and swelling her girth
while the strap was being drawn. AS
soon as this was accomplished she
would contract her body to its nor
NAL size, leaving the strap comfort
ably loose. Grandma" however,
was faithful servant, and toiled on
uncomplainingly; but Grandpa"
knew thing of two about the duties
belonging to him. His owner averred
that the grizzled veteran would carry
three hundred and fifty pounds, but
that if three hundred and fifty-one
pounds were imposed he would i'm
mediately lie down. From "How a
Burro Discovered Creole" in Demo-

A Big Mining Suit.

On Wednesday q complaint in tres
pass for 1898, 600 damages was filed
in the Superior Court of Mono coun-
ty by the Standard Con. Mining Co.,
plaintiff, against the Bodie Con Min
ing Co. The plaintiff alleges that the
defendant entered its mining claim,
called the West Bullion, by means of

as early as 1884, and since said time
has repeatedly extracted and con-
verified to its use ores, belonging to
plaintiff, from the lodges known as
the Burgess" and Second South
Ledge" The complaint alleges that
the plaintiff did not discover said
facts and trespasses until 1894. The
mining ground is situated in Bodie,
and the plaintiff and defendant are
the two leading companies of Bodie
District.

A Terrible INSTANT.

Pain is always terrible visitant, and
often domciles itself with one for life.
This infliction is preventible, in cases of
rheumatism, by a timely resort to Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, which checks the
encroachments Of this obstinate and dam
gerous malady at the outset. The term
dangerous" is used advisedly, for rheuma-
tism is always liable to attack the vital or
gans and terminate life, No testimony is
more conclusive and concurrent than that
Of physicians who testify to the excellent
effect Of the Bitters in this disease. Per-
sons that incur a wetting in rainy orsnowy
weather, and who are exposed to draughts
should use the Bitters as preventative OF
i'll effects. Malaria, dyspepsia, liver and
kidney trouble, nervousness and debility
are also among the ailments to which this
popular medicine is adapted. For the in.

One day last week, while Bob
Wright was fishing at the lake he
witnessed very queer performance
Listen to his story. 1.-The fish didn t
bite very well, so | sat down on the
shore to take a rest Pretty soon |
noticed a large frog summing himself
and catching flies. Out would dart
his tongue and he would land fly
every time. BY and by large water
snake appeared on the scene, He
was looking for a lanch and the frog,
though large one, seemed just the
the thing. The snake coiled himself,
raised his head swayed it back and
forth, then slowly bringing it down
he grasped the hind legs of the frog
and began to swallow the dainty
morsel. The frog turned half way
around and seeing what was the mat
ter. deliberately took the snake by
the tail and began to swallow it,
Well, this was interesting, Slowly,
but surely they were eating each
other. At last only the neck and
head of each were left, and then the
snake swallowed the frog. The frog
at the same instant swallowed the
snake and both disappeared.

tramp was lately tried at Indianapolis.
One of the species applied at q doc
tors house for help. The woman Of the
house refused him aid unless he
worked. lie consented to DO anything
and she took him to the kitchen, where
he was set to work doing the weeks
washing. He staggered bit at first,
but manfully overcamc his natural
aversion to water and work. This so
impressed the doctor that n situation
at nine dollars per week was secured
for him. The first weeks wages was
lost from hole in his pocket, but out
of the second weeks pay he returned
money loaned to tide him over The
experiment promises SO much success
that it is doubted if the good people
