Securely Hidden.

A curious, and to outside people
amusing incident, occurred just
after the robbery of Rabies jewelry
store. The men Gregor and Becker
had hidden the spoils in Central
park and in the morning Gregor
took the first car down to River
side part with the stuff and hid 1T
in the deuse underground. In the
afternoon Becker and he went
down to divide up, but, Gregor
could not find the hidden place OF
the booty and after long search
they gave 1t up and seated them
selves by tree near the car depot.
Gregor was uneasy, especially at
Becker's continued roasting" and
at length went back and after a
long search f0Rrnd the goods and
then divided6{fem with Becker.

A Trick in Mule Trading

A local firm in this city last
week purchased big mule for use
in their delivery wagon and were
very well satisfied with their bar
gain until, on the evening OF the
first days use Of the animal In the
delivery wagon. they learned that
the mule had ran away, smashed
the wagon badly and nearly in
jured the boy driver for life by CIV
ing him a vicious kick. The next
day they were gaddened by the
visit of the former owner. He said
he had heard of the disaster and
offered to trade them larger and
gentler one. The swap was made
and then one partner happened to
ask him why he was willing to
take back the bad mule.
"This mule" he replied" sis bet
ter mule. I can trade BIN back al
ways, with advantage to myself, OF
course, after selling him to any
one"

ganized and the demands for more
economical methods are moro urg-
emit than ever, it seemed to us emil
nently reasonable and proper that
we should dispense with the extra
help we put on some years ago, and
feel sure that after the explana-
tions given, you and our other
friends in San Antonio, will appre.
ciate fully that in doing away
with one superintendent and his
office force, we have been actuated
by no unfriendly feeling whatever
towards your city or its people, but
have considered solely the most
economical methods Of administer
ing the property committed to our
charge.
Far from doing anything that
would treat San Antonio as way
station, as stated in your petition,
l am glad to be able TO point to the
very handsome shops built under
my supervision in your city, and
to the constan thy increasing i'm
portance given to these shops
since have been in charge OF the
property.
An examination of the roster Of
our shop forces in the months OF
January and June 1890, as COM
pared with January and May OF
1895 (the statistics for June not
having been worked up as YETI
show that in the former period we
employed 1873 shopmen at San An
tonic, distributing amongst them
$l34,000 per annum in wages,
whilst in 1896 we have employed
an average of pa men, paying out
in wages $4,000, per annum.
Furthermore, the entire force OF
our land department, employing
many men, has been located In
your midst.
The number Of people affected by
the proposed change, has been,
am sure, very much exaggerated
to you. 1t will do away, Of course,
with one division superintendent
with his dispatchers and office
clerks, and with q limited number
Of train crews, forming in the ag-
gregate a total which is infinitesi-
NAL to a city of $4,000 inhabitants,
but whose salaries form a total Of
vital Importance to the company's
business.
The tangible proofs given above
of our appreciation Of the impor-
lance of your city to our lines,
should be the best argument to
convince you of our friendly feel
ings toward San Antonio, and
whilst some little feeling has been
engendered by the circulation Of
the petition, which you presented
to me, 1 earnestly urge upon you
as a matter of equity, to remove
such as may exist, now that you
have been put in full and unre-
served possession Of the perfectly
proper and reasonable motives that
actuated us. Yours truly,
j. KRUTTsCHNITT,
go General Manager.

He Was Near Sighted.

A near sighted city official
thought he would be very gallant
to a pretty blonde lady in a lemon
colored dress at the military plaza
market last Friday afternoon. He
saw her drop her light green glove,
as he supposed, while she was pur-
chasing vegetables and he quickly
picked it up and gave it to her.
Instead to the "thank you" and
smile he expected, the lady looked
bewildered and finally threw away
the "glove," which afterward q
friend told the nearsighted man
was only a shuck from a roasting
ear.
His favorite expression, "Oh
Shucks ~ does not ego" any more.

winded speeches are the most i'm
portant features and requirements

bility of women becoming tonsor-
ial artists than their monopolizing
political offices. Should the for
mer calamity ever be inflicted on
mankind, fear that the stern sex
will break out in open revolution
and wild stampede will be the
result.
When you have ascertained the
manner which man pays his
honest debts, you strike the key
note to his general character.
Most OF the so-called swells and
dudes who hold their heads "awful-
ly high" have acquired that habit
by being obliged to continually
hold their heads above water.

gross injustice to the dumb brutes
