San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1896-10-15

The governorship of a state is held
yearly by the man who gives the shah
the largest present; during his period
of office he collects from the people the
taxes, the present he has given the shah
and a good substantial sum into the
bargain for himself. Absolutely pitt
less, his men will often seize the last
sticks of an old man, and if the people,
seeing starvation staring them in the
face, resist, they are liable to be put to
death by torture, if what was in the
mouth of every one was true. In the old
days it was necessary to make fright
full example of few caravan robbers to
keep the road through the Kotabs safe.
In q country where it is customary to
commit suicide in fanatical way, as,
for instance, when wives throw them
selves on their husbands funeral pyres
in India, an outcry often Is made in
England, and yet in a country full of
Europeans men are taken out in broad
daylight and cruelty murdered by the
roadside,

Poisoning in India.

The increase in the number Of poiE on
ings in Indiais attracting a good dea. of
attentionin London. Formerly pounded
glass and opium were the favo1ite
agents of destruction used. But educa-
ton from European point of view
has impaired to the jewellers of Hindoo-
stan the knowledge of a number of new
and far more deadly compounds and
drugs. The majority of the victims are
men and children. In India it is IA
vorite way of paying off an old score
to poison the child of ones enemy,
while, according to official statistics,
in the majority of cases where men have
been poisoned the culprit has turned out
to be his mother-in-law.

LONGS TO BE A SLAVE.
Southern Negro Who Wants to Go Into
Bondage Again.

Some of the letters that Mayor
Thacher gets are curiosities in their
way. People from out of town who
wish to find out anything in the city of
Albany invariably write letters to the
mayor. 1t doesn't make any difference
what the information desired relates to,
the mayor, they think, ought to know,
says the Albany Argus.
A letter was received from a negro
away down south, who, Mr.. Monahan
says, has been dead for 80 years-not
literally corpse, but deceased so far as
his grip on hustling, progressive nine
teenth century life was concerned. This
man believes that slavery is still an in
stituti2n in this great land, and is igno-
rant ofthe glorious fact that the mas
ter's whip hasn't cracked for 80 years.
He never heard of the presidents proc
lamation, never knew that the north
had whipped the south, and that a mil
lion lives had been sacrificed to free the
slave. In his letter to the mayor this
colored man asked to be brought north
and sold back into slavery. There is
no question that he found it impossible
to live in the south, and longed again for
the responsibility from self-support
of slavery days, which he thought still
hourished in the south.

A REMARKABLE TOOTH.
Wonderful Relic In the Temple at Yaka-
dana, Japan.

uama, Japan.
The temple at Yakadama, Japan, con-
tains wonderful relic in the shape of a
tooth which, tradition says, one of the
gods pulled from his jaw in order to
have weapon with which to dispatch
an immense cobra, says the st. Louis
Republic. Years ago, according to the
tradition, after the tooth had been
worshiped by heather devotees for
centuries, a change of sentiment took
place in regard to the relic. 1t was
declared to be fraud and was, ac-
cordingly, ground to powder and then
thrown into the river. But the particles
came together, so the priests say, and
again formed themselves into a per-
feet tooth, which was found as per-
feet as before the ordeal, quietly repos-
ing in the bed Of the river. After this
miracle, the Temple of the Sacred
TOOTH" which had also been destroyed
by the unbelievers, was rebuilt and the
tooth again enshrined as an object of
alteration. At present it is kept in a
gold box wrapped in films from the
sacred white spiders web.
Non-believers in the power of the Sa-
cred Indestructible Tooth say that it is
simply a molar of some extinct species
of gigantic animal.

TOBACCO IN WILLS.
Curious Directions Left by the King OF
Smokers.

DhTtCItOub LEU ny thc mig VI
Smokers.
Klaes, the merchant of Rotterdam,
was called the king of the smokers,
from his devotion to the gentle weed,
and he had right regal funeral. By
the terms of his will, every smoker who
chose to attend it was presented with
ten poundssof tobacco and two Dutch
pipes, ON which were engraved the
name, arms and date of the decease of
the testator. All his guests were in
vited TO be careful to keep their pipes
alight during the funeral ceremonies,
and to empty their ashes into his grave.
His oak coffin was lined with the cedar
of his old Havana cigar boxes, and a
packet of old Dutch tobacco was placed
at the foot of his coffin. His favorite
pipe was laid by his side along with
a box of matches, as well as flint and
steel and some finder, as he had ex-
pressed an opinion that there was no
knowing what might happen" Some
anti-tobacconists of the period seem to
have wickedly remarked that these pre-
cautions about procuring light would
be found superhuOus.
The courts recently set aside clause
In the will of an anti-tobacco Lacquer
in Ireland. This gentleman had
prejudice against smoking, perhaps be-
cause it made him sick, and inserted
this paragraph in Eis last testament:
81 have told my sons, John, Richard
and Samuel, thatif they indulge in the
habit they would forfeit 6 500 each,
to be divided among their sisters, and
should they at any time begin this habit,
their sisters may sue them each for
$500"

tion of her maiden name, Wally
Muench.

ant being J. M. Short. The case is

4 BOLD ROBBERY.
Bank Entered in Broad Day
Light in Full View of Twen-
ty People.

~ PeOple.'
Denver. Col, Oct. 15.-Accord-
ing TO the latest advices from
Meeker, Colo, which is 90 miles
from the nearest telegraph Office,
the three men who were killed
there after rObbing the bank,
have not vet been identified. The
one who lived two hours after
being shot, gave their names.
which proved to be fictitious. 1t
is believed that one of the rob
hers is Thomas Mccarthy, who
aided in robbing the banks at
Telluride and Delta.
Those killed and wounded in
the battle between the citizens
and robbers are: X. Charles
Jones, leader of the bandits, aged
As, shot through the lungs and
chest; William Smith, robber,
aged 81; George Harris, robber,
aged 80, wounded; Came War
Warden, w. HI. Clark, not fatal;
Victor Dikeman, G. A. Booth, w.
p. Herrick./
The robbery was one of the
most daring ever perpetrated
in the west, occurring as it did,
in broad day light, and at the
time when there were twenty or
more people in sight.
1t is believed here that the rob-
bers were members of the Me-
Carthy gang that committed sew
eral daring train and bank rob-
berries in Montana, Washington.
Oregon and Colorado. 1t is
also supposed that the man who
robbed David III. Moffet, presi-
dent of the First National bank,
in this city, of $4,000, in 1889,
was a member of this gang. The
McCarthys formerly lived in an
Out-of-the-way place in Oregon in
which they were regarded as
wealthy ranchmen. In an at
tempt to rob a bank at Delta,
Colo, about year ago. John
Mccarthy and his son were kill
ed, but Tom Mccarthy escaped.

ROBBER CAUGHT.

st. Johns, N. F., Oct. 15.-The man
who robbed the customhouse of a
large sum of money has been arrest
ed. The belief that the money was
stolen during the progress of the fire
in the customhouse last week proves
to have been unfounded. The thief
was a messenger in one Of the depart
ments and was entrusted with the col
lection of treasury business orders,
which enabled him to appropriate
large sums at various times during
the past two months. The extent Of
the embezzlement is not yet known.
The earlier non-discovery of the theft
has occasioned much adverse COM
ment.
