A Home Specimen.

The splendid piece Of iron work
which was put down the past two
days at the corner of Avenue G
and Houston streets in the tracks
of the San Antonio Street Railway
line has been the admiration Of
all passers-by who understand a
pretty piece of machinery and
iron moulding.
The piece is what is known as q

able because of the fact that it
has four frogs all cast into one
solid piece, thereby making creep

and causing all to run over this

gled in the meshes of the law, and
was Deputy Constable Green's spe-
cial guest from to $3.50 yesterday
afternoon.
Cabellos has been ip this city for
about 8 year doing odd jobs for an
existence; filling the position of
porter at the Southern hotel,
among other employments. When
he came here he endeavored to
maintain his position In society,
but unfortunately, he became in
fatuaJed with the cook OF a family
who knew him abroad, and his as
pirations to be a Beau Brummel In
San Antonio were nipped in the
bud.
Several weeks or more ago he
formed the acquaintance OF a young
Mexican girl named Olivia Del
gado. Olivia is rather a pretty
girl and is quite attractive. Ca
bellos called on Olivia several
times and once or twice he took
her to the plaza, where he bought
ice cream at 5 cents per saucer, and
; a kind of affection sprung up be-
tween the two.
J Olivia was caller at the office
OF County Attorney Bart Dewitt
] yesterday afternoon, and into the
always sympathetic ears of that
official, she poured a tale of woe
that was not at all complimentary
to Cabellos. She said that she and
Cabellos were engaged; that he
had promised to marry her, in
other words, but had failed to
keep that promise. She wanted
him to keep his word, aud she
wanted the ceremony performed

It Would Be This Way.

A Mexican dollar is orth only
53s in this country because, nobody
being obliged to receive it
in payment of an obliga-
ton, it passes current only at
its bullion value. II melted
down the silver it con tains is
worth about the sum mentioned.
Our own silver dollar, though in
trinsically worth about the same,
passes current at a valuation of
100c because the government
stands ready to exchange gold
for it, or paper that is as good
as gold. II free and unlimited
coinage were to prevail, neither
the government nor the banks
would furnish gold or full value
paper money in exchange for the
silver dollar, and VT would in
stantly sink to It's b4llion value.

YALE APOLOGIES.

New Haven. Conn, Sept. 25.-The
Yale News today has the following
editorial commenting on the disturb
ance at the Bryan meeting yesterday:
THE Yale News must deprecate the
spirit of horse play'-this is the true
light in which the animus must be re-
garded-which prompted the demon
stration at yesterdays political meet
ing. The action Of the Yale men pres
ent plainly showed lack of respect
for the dignity Of the speaker as a
public man. everything political aside.
and a careful and fair-minded consid-
Grafton will unanimously condemn and
regret the exhibition, irrespective of
party affiliations. Yale was the foster
mother of the Illinois college where
w. J. Bryan graduated. The Illinois
college was founded by party of grad
yates from Yale, and has always look
ed upon Yale as its parent institution"

THE ELEADVILLE
STRIKERS RUN
After Bluffing the Soldiers They Are
Badly Frightened by "a
Charge.
NEW MINERS ARE INSTALLED
At the Emmet Mine and a Cavalry
Guard for the Night Restores Con-
fidence to the People-Soldiers
Maintain Order.

Leadyille, Sept. 25.-The first deiega-
ton Of miners from Missouri arrived
over the Denver and Rio Grande at
4:20 p. m. The train was a special and
was met at Malta, three miles out. by
two new companies OF militia, organiz-
ed this week and composed entirely Of
business men and clerks. They es-
corted the train to the city where II
was met by one-half OF General
Brooks command, 800 strong. with a
portion Of the Chaffee Light Artillery,
two Calling guns and cavalry troops.
The rs miners were surrounded by the
soldiers and the cavalcade passed down
Harrison avenue toward the Emmett
mine. Along the route there were fire.
quent yells Of 'scab." from striker
sympathizers and the soldiers were
hooted at. At Orange street the cav
alcade halted and here the enraged
people grew more demonstrative,
crowding closely upon the troops and
showering abusive epIthets alike upon
miners and militia One OF the off,
GERS. who was singled out by two men
for special abuse and crowding, grew
angry and finally drew his sword, strik-
ing one Of his tormenters across the
face with the fiat side Of his sword,
and giving the other a hard blow on
the back as he turned away.
The command being ready TO move,
the order was given to charge the
crowd with gun butts, and push them
back to give room for the marching
column. The celebrity with which II
was obeyed sent a panic through the
crowd who fed over fences and through
yards. Several windows OF houses
were broken in by men blind with fear
who simply dashed away from the
guns and landed inside the windows
with hands and faces bleeding from
broken glass. The march was then re-
sumed without further incident. The
miners were soon inside the Emmett
stOckade. A cavalry patrol win be on
guard tonight which gives added con-
fidenee to all.
As a result of the hearing before
District Judge Owens today all of the
men arrested on information charging
them with the murder of Fireman
O'Keefe were released on bail Of $500
each Most of the bonds were furnished
by Judge A. Lynch. receiver of the
United States land office.

a CASE OF SOUR GRAPES.

London, Sept. 25.-Sir Geo. Newness,
who contemplated issuing a challenge
for the Americas cup last year after
the Observation-Disclosures fiasco, recently
made a request to the Royal London
Yacht Club TO support him in issuing a
challenge to the Americas cup, the
conditions to be attached to the chal-
lenge being that all matches should be
sailed off Halifax. The Loyal London
Club has declined TO accede to Sir
Georges request on the ground that
the club had previously passed reso-
luton that the new deed of gift of the
New York Yacht Club for the cup was
inimical TO the sport of yachting,

TRADE REVIEW.
Encouraging Advance All Along the
Line-Prices OF Wheat.

Llne-HrlceS OK WneaI.
New York, Sept 25.-R G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade will say
tomorrow,
A very moderate and distinct inn
provement is seen, not only in the buy
ing OF materials, which continues at
sitter prices, but also in orders for the
products of some industries. in the
money markets and in the export Of
staples, and it is yet little more than
step toward better things. but has
already started some important works
and prompted a few considerable CON
tracts.
The continuing arrivals of gold have
raised the treasury reserve above $125,-
100000, strengthened the banks and re-
laxed the stringency in commercial
loans, so that at about per cent low
er rates more business was done than
in the three previous weeks. Hoard
ing is no longer reported. but some
boards are being unlocked.
The movement of crops continues
large and purchases for export have
advanced prices or prevented depres-
sion. While the gain in the working
force is not great. it seems clear that
for the first time in many months there
is some gain, An important change is
the general advance in produce and es-
pecially in wheat. which rose sharply
on Thursday and Friday, closing SIC
higher for the week. with much buying
apparently for foreign accounts. The
reports of crops abroad were supposed
to be the chief cause as the visible
supplies in this country increased
largely, but for the first time since July
the receipts fell below those of the
same week last year. They are still
large and for the first quarter of the
crop thus far have been 52,721, 1853 bush

of about 30 per cent, and such receipts

Deafness Can Not Be Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inf1amed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When the tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it Is en-
tirely closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to it's normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in

morass, as we advanced, sometimes
an alligator slipped away into the dark
shadows where the water twisted be-
meath the thick tropical foliage strange
birds fitted amid the trees, from which
the Spanish moss hung thick and rank.
It was a strange wild place, and felt
the fear growing upon me.
Once or twice felt sure that saw
my cousins eyes fixed upon me with
a fierce triumphant look that made my
blood grow chill. This was while we
passed through dense shadows, but as
we emerged to lighted spots Paul no
longer looked at me, and l tried to
make myself believe it was a trick Of
my Imagination.
We did not go very far. l induced
Paul to land and camp on a spot that
seemed favorable Our camp fire
cleaned brightly in the gloom OF that
dismal place, but did not drive the
shadow from my heart.
That night l slept little. Paul
seemed to slumber as peacefully as a
babe. Morning came. and I awoke to
find that l was alone. l had slept
soundly the last two hours of the
night.
l started up in terror, fearing had
been abandoned there, but the boat
floated close by, and the outfit had not
been disturbed. Paul and his rifle
alone were gone. l called to him, and
ne answered from the forest near at
hand
Come here" he shouted; come and
see what l have found"
I followed the sound of his voice,
and found him not very far from the
camp. He was standing and staring at
something that lay stretched toward
him on the ground in a moving twist
ing mass. I thought he had shot
something, and hurried to see what it
could be.
What is it?' I asked.
The serpent vine," was his reply
ct must be that. Solomon did not lie
after ALL"
l gazed at the thing, fascinated, for
/ saw that it was indeed vine that
grew from the ground there amid the
rank growing things of the swamp. II
lay stretched toward my cousin, SEEM
ing to reach out and grasp for him,
but he was safe beyond its touch. 1t
twisted and twiped like q mass of ser
pents, and l felt my heart grow sick
and faint as I looked.
Come Closer cried Paul ct cam

He drew me nearer and then, of
