1t is now three weeks since
Anton BerkofslIy, the defaulting
tax collector of Lavaca county,
disappeared from public view, and
no word has been received from
him, His actions previous to his
departure for parts unknown We're
conclusive of his intentions, and it
is not likely he will be heard from

and compelled to return. His
shortage to the state is $4,000 and
to the county 81 800, His bonds
men have had a meeting and made
arrangements to make good the

THE MYSTERY OF dILdAL.
BY JOHN HAY.
American Minister Mt the Court of
London.

The darkest, strangest mystery
ever read, or heern, or see,
Is long Of drink at Taggart's Hall
Tom Taggarts'9 Of Gilgal.
I've heern the tale a thousand ways,
But never could git through the
maze
That hangs around that queer days
doins;
But I'll tell tie yarn to youans.
Tom Taggart stood behind his bar,
The time was fall, the skies WAS far,
The neighbors round the counter
drawed,
And calmly drinkeG and jawed.
At last come Colonel Blood Of Pike,
And old Jedge Phinn, permiscus-
like,
And each, as he meandered in,
Remarked, "a whiskev skim"
Tom mixed the beverage full and far,
And slammed it, smoking, on the
bar.
Some says three fingers, some says
two,
I'll leave the choice to you.
Phinn to the drink put forth his hand;
Blood drawed his knife, with accent
bland
II AK yer pardinG, Mister Phinn-
lest dram that whisky skin
No man high-toneder could be found
Than old Jedge Phinn the country
round.
Says he. Young man, the tribe of
Phinns
Knows their own whisity-skins%
He went for his 'leven inch bowie
knife
"I tries to foller a Christian life;
But I'll drap piece Of liver or two,
My bloomin' shrub, with YOU"
They carved in u way that all adj
mired,
Till Blood drawed iron at last, and
fired
1t took Seth Bludso 'twiXt the eyes.
Which caused him great surprise.
Then coats went Off, and all went in {;
Shots and bad language swelled
the DIM
The short. sharp bark of Derringers,
Like bull-pups cheered the furse.
They piled the stiffs outside the door;
They made, l reckon, a cord or
more. 49, : = ~
Girls went that winter, as rule,
Alone TO spellin' school.
I've sarched in vain from, Dan to Beer
Sheba. to make this mystery clear;
But L end with HIT as did begin
