A Model Plant is not complete WlLkN
out Electric Power, thus dispensing
with small engines.
Why not generate your power from
one CENTRAL Station? One genel
ator can furnish power to your PumpA
Cenrifugals, Elevators, Plows, Rail-
ways and HOSTS; also furnish light
and power for a radius of from Is to &c
miles.
Electric power being used saves the
labor Of hauling coal in your field, also
water, and does away with high-priced
engineers, and only have one engine to
look after in your mill.

Washington, May almost 10000
government employees were brought
with one swoop under the protection
OF the civil service today by the issu-
ance of an order by President Cleye-
land making Il general revision of civil
service rules. The order is the most
important since the Inauguration OF the
civil service rules. The order Is the
most important since the Inauguration
of the system more than a decade ago.
1t takes effect Immediately. Its prac-
teal extent is the classification of all
government employees below the rank
of those subject to nomination by the
president and confirmation by the sen.
ate and above the grades of laborers or
workmen with few exceptions.
The new rules increase the number
of classified positions from 55,136 10
SIS, 1876. The number of classified
places which are excepted from eX-
animation has been reduced from 2,O9o
to no, being mainly positions as cash
iers in the customs, postal and rev.
enues.
Indians employed in minor capacities
the Indian service are necessarily put
in the exceptional list Almost all of
the positions in Washington which
have heretofore been excepted, have
been included in the competitive list.
The only classified positions in Wash
ington which will be excepted from
examination under the new rules will
be private secretaries or confidential
clerks mot exceeding two to the presi-
dent and to the head of each of the
eight executive departments. No pc.
sitions will hereafter be subject to nom
competitive examination except In
cases of Indians employed in teaching
capacity in the Indian service.

austin, Texas, Mny lin granting Il
writ of mandamus upon application Of
attorneys in the case OF Shintz W..
Hume ct al from Travis county, the
court of civil appeals of the Third SUI
preme judicial district today rendered
Il decision presenting questions which
have not heretofore been passed upon
by the higher courts of this state
Shintz some time ago brought suit
against Hume & Tobin for damages.
embracing in one petition two distinct
causes of action, one for false impris-
onment and the other for malicious
prosecution. On the trial he obtained
verdict for $4,000 damages on the is
sue of false imprisonment and the jury
found against him on the issue of mali
cious prosecution. Defendants moved
for new trial and Judge Morris of the
l'ifty-third district, in passing upon
their motion, granted Il new trial on
the issue of false Imprisonment, but
refused to set aside the verdict and
1udgment on the issue of malicious
prosecution, thus attempting to sever
the causes of action and grant par-
tial new trial. Plaintiff asserted tnnt
the order granting new trial ON one
issue had the effect of setting aside
the entire verdict and demanded mis-
right to trial of the entire case, which
was denied him, whereupon application
was made to the court of civil appeals
for n writ of mandamus to compel
Judge Norris TO proceed with n YER
dict of the entire case, which was
granted. 1t would seem from this that
d district judge can not arbitrarily re-
fuse to try one branch Of cause pend
ing in his court and that If he does so
his action in that respect is subject to
the control Of the higher courts.

Henrietta, Texas, May 6-Last
night a dance was held at the home Of
Charles Risly, about nine miles south
east of here. An old grudge existed
between Hiram Curtis and Mat Bent
ley. When Curtis arrived he found
Bentley already there and with two
friends, Ormand and Tate by name. He
walked up to Bentley and told him to
get out, at the same time throwing up
his gun and commencing to shoot.
Bentley jumped back, drew his gun
and returned Curtis fire. After shoot
ing five times he ran out Of the door
and started for Henrietta to give him
self up.
After the firing ceased it was found
that Hiram Curtis was shot several
times in the breast, Bird Risly, son of
Noah Risly, was shot in the breast
once; Charles Risly was shot in the leg
and S. u. Hefner was shot in the hip.
Hefner came to town and had the
ball extracted and brought the first
news to the city. Shortly after Bent
ley came to town and gave himself up
to the officers.
1t is reported here that both Hiram
Curtin and Bird Risly are now dead,

1 s1a7. 900 shortage.

Washington, May Cit Is reported
upon what Is believed to be good au-
thOrity that an expert accountant en-
ployed by the secretary of state has
found shortage of $4,000 in the
trust funds of G. j. Keckhofer, until
recently the disbursing officer of the
state department. This amount, to-
gether with $4,000 shortage said to
have been found by the auditing Off
GERS of the treasury in Mr.. Keclkho-
fer's general account, brings the total
up to $4,000. What action the gov
eminent will take In the matter has
not been made known.
Mr. Keckhofer has been disbursing
officer Of the state department
through three administrations and
was universally regarded rs thor
oughly competent and faithful official.
Several months ago, however, Mr.. OIL
ney. on the evidence which he consid-
cred sufficient to warrant the step, re-
moved him and appointed his sue
cessor From the first intlmation of
trouble Mr.. Keckhofer's friends have
insisted that he is entirely innocent of
any criminal act, declaring that for
many years the accounts of several
branches of the department OF state
have been kept with little system.
Mr.. Keckhofer's friends assert that
his seeming shortage is not in fact,
but is traceable to the chaotic condi-
ton of the departments accounts.
Ever since he was placed under sus-
picion and removed from his office he
has remained in the city and is said to
be anxious for thorough inyestiga-
ton.

discovered in the rrus; Funds of G. j.
Kocishofor-Tragedy at Henriotta.

Washington, May Ex-senator Chan
dler yesterday circulated the following
petition on the republican side of the
chamber:
TO the Senate Committee on Finance:
The undersigned represent that in
case any bill relating to internal reve-
nue. or the tariff is considered by the
senate at the present session the com
mittee on finance will move and sup
port the addition of clause provid-
ing for an adequate duty on wool.
In sending the petition to Senator
Morrill, chairman of the committee,
Senator Chandler wrote Also saying
that the paper had not been presented
to any member of the finance commit
tee, to whom it is addressed, or the re-
publican senators who have voted
against taking up the Dingley bill. He
also stated that the names Of some sem
ators had not been secured because
the senators were not members Of the
party But" he added, Il think am
able to say that all the republican sena,
tors and populists as well are in favor
of putting on duty on wool whenever
an amendment is made to the present
tariff law.
The petition was signed by thirty
one senator's. The petition was gotten
up because of a proposition to call up
bill for the repeal of the provision in
the present law in the rate of tax on
alcohol used on arts and medicine.
