WANT A NEW CAPTAIN.

The members composing the Recon-
structed Excelsior guards. the newly
organized local colered militia COM
pany, have gotten up a very lengthy
petition asking the present captain of
the company to resign or hold a gener-
al election Of officers, which if he re-
fuses to take action on, will be submit
ted to Adjutant General Mabry. The
present captain was elected before the
company was re-organized and now
the members declare they should hold
another election as it is no longer the
same company, the old guard having
dwindled down to nine members, which
virtually disbands according to the
state militia rules.

QUEER CHARACTERS.
They Visit the Alamo Every Day in
The Week.

They Visit the Alamo Every Day in
The Week.
Custodian Bennett, Of the Alamo
says he has some queer characters to
deal with occasionally. He says he
will receive visits from persons who,
in their own opinion, know all there is
to be learned about history, and these
are the ones with whom he has the
greatest trouble in explaining the his
tory of the wonderful old building
The other daH he had a visit from
a man who wanted to see the exact
spot on which King Alamo fell in the
battle with the French, and it took
a considerable length of time TO con-
vince the man that there never lived
such a parsonage as King Alamo and
that it was the fort that fell in a bat
tie with the Mexican troops instead
of the French.
Such occurrences are numerous, some
persons making even worse breaks
than the one cited.
The captain also had a visit recent
ly from a man and his wife who We're
on their way to Mexico. They each
dropped 10 cents in the contribution
box on the wall for the Alamo monu-
ment fund and went their way. On
their erturn, they again visited the
place and wanted to know if by drop
ping another cents each in the box,
could they get one of the small books
containing the history of the Alamo,
which the captain sells for himself in
diVidually.

BRUTAL LYNCHING IN ARKANSAS
CoNsTABLE,s BODY FOUND NEAR
THE ROADSIDE.
Indications That the Life Had Been
Clicked Out of Him By a Miners
Mob.

Fort Smith, Ark, Dec S.-James
Murray, constable at Jenny Lind,
coal mining own in Sebastian county,
was lynched on Sunday night by a mob
of coal miners. Constable Murray went
to Bonanza Sunday afternoon to arrest
a miner named Grant McBrooom. He
captured McBroom without trouble,
and started for Jenny Lind about mid
night. That was the last seen Of Muir
ray alive.
The constable's body was found ly-
ing near the roadside, about so yards
from the shaft of the Bonanza mine.
His hands were tied securely behind his
body and his neck was black and blue,
showing plainly the imprint of a rope,
which had choked the life out of his
body. Blood oozed from a dozen bullet
wounds in the officers body, and his
clothing was torn into shreds.
The coroner began an investigation
and it has been fully developed that he
was waylaid by a mob of McBroom's
friends, composed of miners, deter
mined upon rescuing the prisoner, and
that Murray was lynched, the body cut
down and placed by the roadside. Nc
Broom was arrested today.

SIXTY MILLION SILVER BONDS
CONVERSION OF THE FLOATING
DEBT OF MEXICO.
Uniformity of Internal Debt-Bonds
Popular In Europe Interest In
Bryan's Reception.

City of Mexico, Dec. S.-The chamber
of deputies has approved the bill au
thorizing the minister of finance to
issue new series of per cent silver
bonds of the interior debt to the
amount of $40, O00 900, making the total
authorization $60,O00,00O. The bill is
now before the senate. These bonds
are issued to convert the floating debt
into the form of subsidies, port works,
payments, ETC., and as a means of
making the internal debt uniform.
These bonds are always in active de-
mand in Europe, where they are most
ly held by small investors, who regard
them as an excellent form OF ulacing
their savings. The bonds are quoted
at 7S and so in this market The bill
has gone to the senate from the cham
Der of deputies approving the contract
made with the Mexican Telegraph
company for the introduction Of an in
ternational cable and telegraph service.
There is much interest shown in MI
Bryan'S approaching visit, and the dis
position is to treat him as a distin-
Suished American. without regard to
his political standing as the chief Of
the Democratic party He will be cor
daily received by the government and
shown many attractions.
The American residents in various
cities are organizing reception commit
tees.
