Stopped a Runaway.

A double team of mules belong
ing to Fruit Dealer G.. B. Boero, of
Main Plaza, ran away with a
wagon on East Houston street yes
terday. A man at the risk Of body
and limb, jumped into the wagon
from the side, while the mules
were going at break-neck speed,
near Navarro street, and stopped
the team before any damage was
done. The mans name was not
learned. Words of praise were
heard from all who saw the act.

STREET TALK.

When the Vet. was young he
shot his gun;
Now he shoots his mouth for fun.
Words are as dangerous as dy-
Mantle, when you put a fuse to
them.
An alderman is a shining mark.
Everybody thinks it's fun to shoot
at him.
San Antonio is too liberal to en-
terrain White Cappers, or Ku-
Klux sentiments.
The man who stands as a con-
victed wife beater and adulterer
should not parade his bravery be-
fore the public.
The obligation in the minds of
some OF our fraternal brethren
have from appearances become
rusty. The greatest of all these
noble sentiments is "Charity."
The uprising in old Santone over
issues of the late war has now as.
sumed personal phase that may
result in a tragedy. It's time to
call a halt.
Alderman Mackey knows how to
pull the strings. He got cash for
his warrant, and did not have to
pay his taxes. The city treasurer
will no doubt soon be asking,
"What am 1 here for?"
The hitch in the sewer work is
the first real cause for Engineer
Gray's presence. The grade ran
out to within three feet of theIsur-
face, and the kindergarten did not
know what to do. 1t was either
Gray's fault or somebody else-no
room for a flushing tank, you
know.

man, and to hold high, responsible
position under the United States
government for more than quar-.
ter Of century, surely can neither
be a coward, nor bad man at
heart.
There is evidently a sad lack of
the Christian charity that beholds
in every other mortal kinship that
makes every one Of us the child of
God. There are actually some men
who think they are better than
their fellows. Some day-not long
they will be leveled to that sta
ton now occupied by all the kings
and queens whose monuments
have rotted.
The men who fought the last
war all came from the same COM
mon "white trash" stock that have
made the western world their
home. They are all common-that
is,-just as much alike as two
Cinnamon. These white trash"
fellows would fight like the devil
as long as nobody started to run,
and run like lightning when they
did run.
No wonder Lawyer Leal is mys-
titled over Bidde's release. Assis-
tant Marshal Bennett had turned
the prisoner out the moment he
heard that Leal had gone to find
Judge Green. Leal can't under
stand how the marshal can turn a
prisoner out Of Jail without some
order Of court. Leal will know
who to go to the next time he
wants a prisoner released from the
bat cave.

There is no passenger rate war be-
tween the Union Pacific and Rio
Grande Western, nor has the latter
road served any notice to the associa-
ton, as announced yesterday in the
dispatches from Chicago.
But there is trouble brewing all the
same. and the armed neutrality exist
ing is likely to be broken at any time.
We have never served any such no.
tlce, said MIR. Heintz, of the Rio
Grande Western yesterday. 1T is true
that many tickets to points east are
being bought here by the original pur-
chaSers as we'll as through the manipu-
jation of ticket brokers. 1t undoubted-
ly affects this market materially and
the matter is receiving our attention.
don't mind saying that the Rio Grande
Western proposes to meet the competi-
ton of the Union Pacific in every way,
but beyond that there is nothing to
give out at this time
The Union Pacific officials had moth
ing to say regarding the matter. They
appeared to be perfectly satisfied with
the situation and seem satisfied with
their position in the matter.
An investigation on the outside de-
veloped the fact that a large number
of tickets are being disposed of by
brokers'. and the prevailing rate to
Omaha is S21 as against $50, the regu-
lar price. To Chicago the price asked
by brokers is $50, which is a saving of
$1,000 over the regular rate.

VIEWED IN CHICAGO.
The Situation is Regarded as Very
Serious.

CHICAGO, Dec. ia serious war
before the new Western Passenger as
ISOLATION is on and unless the matter
is speedily settled. its agreement to
maintain rates will be smashed into
little bits. When the Denver & Rio
Grande became a member of the
Western Passenger association it was
with the understanding that the Union
Pacific would clear the market of its
tickets on Utah-Colorado business
Now the D. & r. G. claims that the
promise of the Union Pacific has not
been kept and the market is as full
of tickets as it has ever been 1t is
claimed that at least fifty of the tick
cts are in the hands Of brokers at
Denver and that many more are scat
tered throughout Utah and Colorado.
The Denver & Rio Grande now gives
notice that to meet the competition of
these tickets it will pay q commission
of So on all tickets from Utah and Colo
rado points TO the Missouri river. and
If this commission is not enough to
make the Union Pacific Withdraw the
tickets 1t will double it The other
lines Of the association are deeply
concerned over the matter and it is
likely that a meeting of the general
managers Of the association roads will
meet in a short time to see if the
matter cannot be remedied

MICROSCOPICAL SOCIETY.
An Interesting Meeting at the Uni
versity Last Evening.

The Utah Microscopical society held
! it's regular meeting ait the university
last evening when an exceedingly in
teresting and instructive programme
was carried out.
w. D. Neal, the instructor in miner
alogy and geology in the university,
spoke at some length on 1.-The Micro
scope in Mineralogy and Lithology.'
| He gave brief account of the history
| Of the applica ton of the microscope
to the study of those subjects. Then
| followed a brief. thorough, clear ex-
PLANTATION of the methods in use in
preparing slides of rocks and miner
ais. and their microscopic structure
as seen in the slides. Mr.. Neal ended
his paper with a statement of the
Importance of the application of the
microscope to the study of mineralogy
and its related branches.
DR.. W. F. Beer was announced to
speak on THE Microscopic Examina-
ton of Nerves" He reviewed briefly
the structure Of the nerves, which he
Illustrated by means of some splendid
drawings he had made. DIR. Beer re-
GREETED that on account of sickness he
had not been able to present his paper
In its entirety. but promised in the fu-
ture. to give II in a more complete
form.
DR.. J. E. Ta1mage, president of the
society. delivered an address entitled,
''Tynda1l and the Germ Theory of Dis
ease" The work Of Tynda1l, who was
the recipient of an impressive eulogy,
was illustrated by numerous excellent
drawings executed by Miss Clara
Minor. TyndalPs scientific accuracy
and disinterested earnestness in all his
experimental researches was presented
as a model of fruitful labor. The his
tory of the erroneous belief in the
spontaneous generation of living forms
from Aristotle to the contemporaries
and opponents of Lister, Pasteur and
Tyndal1 was sl1etched, and the con-
elusive demonstrations by the last
named of the infectious nature of the
floating matter of the air, received a
good treatment. 1t was shown as a
result of searching investigation and
crucial tests that there is no evidence
Of any living thing originating except
as the progeny of a parent form An
interesting discussion followed DR.. Tai
IMAGES address, which was partici-
pated in by DR.. Wilcox, DR.. Meacham
and DR.. Harry Young.
The committee on membership re-
ported favorably on the name of Mr..
Thomas Hadley as a member of the
society, and on motion the report was
adopted

ber of slides were exhibited bv Mr..

THE SANTA FEE SALE.

What Its Effect Will Be in the West
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 13.-The sale
of the Santa Fe road at Topeka, has
occasioned great deal Of gossip in
local railroad circles as to the proba-
bility Of the new management build
Ing from Moiave into San Francisco.
The scaling down of the debt of the
big corporation as evidenced by the
price the property brought at the fore
closure sale is considered by compe-
tent judges as placing it in a heal
thier financial condition than it has
been in the past ten years. Ripley and
Robinson are considered by local rail-
road officials as being in favor of max
ing San Francisco the western terni-
nus of the line as soon as practicable.
The Santa Fe now has it's passen-
ger and freight cars run into and out
of this city from Mojave by the South
ern Pacific, in pursuance of a traffic
contract gives the Santa Fe tile right
to run its own trains into San Fran
cisco if it sees fit at any time to do
so. 1t has never availed itself of this
privilege, however, and simply pays
Mr. Huntington a rate Of so much per
mile for all OF its cars the Southern
Pacific hauls between here and no
lave. The contract provides that either
party may break it after giving
years notice of intention. No such
notice has been given by the Santa
Fe and some Of the Southern Pacific
officials say that they 90 not believe
the Santa Fe will break the contract
in the near future. They, however, ad-
mitted that the Santa Fe must neces-
sarily come here some day instead Of
having Mojave for a terminus.
While none Of the directors of the
San Joaquin Valley railroad cared to
be quoted on the subject, several of
them thought that when the valley
line was built into Bakersfield that the
question of the Santa Fe wanting to
connect with it would come prominent
" before both companies for serious
consideration.
