Drove Bulls Four in Hand.

Pomona, section of Germantown,
was once the home OF Col. Forrest,
who purchased the tract of land
from a family named Shoemaker
more than century ago, Forrest
was a colonel in the revolutionary
army, and took part in the battle Of
Germantown. He was always do
ing something out of the ususl Gus
tom, according to the accounts
given of him by old residents of thai
suburb. It is said that he some
times would drive four-in-hand
team of bulls from Germantown to
Philadelphia. Forrest sold Pomona
to James Duval, a French merchant,
about the time of the war of 1872.
Duval took considerable pride ID
raising fruit and ornamental trees OF
all kinds, and Pomona was the at
traction for many distinguished PEG
pie who came to Philadelphia. -

The Passion Flower.

The passion flower is emblematic
of death. In the various parts OF
this remarkable blossom there may
be found fanciful resemblances to the
articles mentioned in the account OF
the crucifixion. The cross, the
hammer, the nails, the crown Of
thorns, the spear and the drops OF
blood are all detected by the eye OF
superstition. s nS0 ~ A'.u' i3.le

lynching is not likely. The shooting oc-
Cured one block from the Santa Fe depot
Some bitterness had existed between the
two men, and Watkins says he
shot in self-defense The assertion, however,
Is denied by half a dozen witnesses, all OF
whom say Williams was shot twice before
he pulled his gun and that as he fell dying
he fired one shot, which went amiss. VIII
liams died almost instantly. During the eX-
element Watkins made his escape, but was
quickly pursued by United States Marshals
Booker and Tucker assisted by Hon. c. ID.
Carter. who with a rife at the head OF the
prisoner forced his surrender. Williams was
once among the largest and wealthiest stock
men In Texas. He leaves a wife and four
children. Public sentiment is strong against
