G. A. GLASSCOCK DEAD.

Mr.. Mike Lipsey received a couple
of kilograms from DeKalb yester-
day and today, dated from Dalby
Springs, one signed by JEFF Lee, the
other by Mrs. Alice Patton. The
first one said: "Send man here to
take charge of G. A. Glascocks
remains, as it will be only a few
hours until he is dead" The one
received this morning, said that
Glasscock was dead and to come
after his remains.
The reporter on hearing this Wis
tied the 16 to saloon, of which
Mr.. Lipsey is proprietor, to learn
what disposition would be made of
the remains. He was told by Mr..
Will Strange, who was doing honors
behind the bar, that Mr.. Lipsey
was still in bed and had not read
the message, but that Mr.. Lipsey
had no more interest in the deceased
than other people about the city
and he did not see why the tele-
grams should be so pointed at him,

Ten acres OF land, with seven
room house and in frst-class
condition, good improvements
and all under fence, adjoining
the city of Texarkana, for some
rimbered lands in Little RIVER
county, Arkansas. Will give
you bargain.
The Daily Texarkanian., 1898-06-13

In fact, Mr.. Strange said that he
and Lpsey had fed the deceased out
of their own pocket for the past
several months and had furnished
him all he could crave, even send
ing the bar porter to his room seve-
raj times day to see that he was
not suffering. That the people had
made up a purse and sent him to
Daily Springs to see if a change of
water would not do him good. Mr.
Strange thinks that the people
here should now take it upon them
selves to bury the remains, as Mr..
Lipsey is no relative and simply a
passing acquaintance of the de
ceased.
Mr.. Glasscock was one of those
unfortunate individuals who was an
enemy to himself going into excesses
and indulging his appetite for
strong drink until he was wreck
He was a man of fine physique, edu-
Gated we'll and has had many good
positions, but drink incapacitated
him from holding them, and he fin
ally drifted about until he found
that he lad to live off what might
be termed liberal charity, for as
long as he lived his friends and
others have done for him, what
perhaps they would not have done
for many another man in similar
straits and under similar circum-
stances. He did not know what it
was to want in life and we hope his
remains will be taken in charge by
the same liberal spirits and provide
him with a suitable casket for
burial.
The reporter has been intimate
with the deceased for several years
and while he saw his faults he like
wise saw his virtues and now that
he is dead, we draw the ma ntle
over the form and weep with his
friends in remembrance Of the
latter.

We Have a Grievance.

Yesterday afternoon at the Park
Mr.. Stewart, a compositor in this
office, secured himself a boat and
also a book, and propelling himself
to shady retreat under the willows
that grow on the island, placed
himself in pose and began to read
the novel, "Put Yourself in His
Place" and "What Would You Do?"
He did not dream that an enemy
lurked near and that he would have
to put into execution the subject
matter of what he was perusing
1t seems that a half dozen compos-
itors of West side morning paper
were in the natatorium bathing, and
seeing our man at his ease, they
made a sly and stealthy charge upon
him, and he did not realize then the
true purport to duck him until they
made a lunge for the boat. Robert,
true to instinct, took to his heels
and jumped on the island before
they could capsize the boat. The
enemy then brought the boat to
the opposite bank and removed the
paddles and left the Texarkanian
man upon this bleak island to the
wild beasts OF the field and birds of
the air, to starve and pine away.
Everything has turning point,
however, even the darkest clouds
have a smiling face behind them,
and Mr.. Stewart made boy hear
him, who rowed a boat over and
rescued him from an awkward stu
alton He tells us he will never &c
boat riding again unless he has a
couple of rapid firing guns on the
port and aft side of his boat and q
cannon in front and rear. The Joke
is too good to keep even If it is or
our Office and we give it for the
smiles it may create IN newspaper
circles,

HOW OUR MARINES LANDED
Over Eight Hundred Take a Fine
Position

on Guantanamo, June II. After
brief engagement, In which a
regiment Of Spanish infantry was
driven headlong from its position,
$50 American marines were landed
on the eastern side Of the harbor Of
Guantanamo Yesterday. The land.
ing was made under the protection
OF the guns of the Oregon, the
MarbIehead and the Yosemite.
This first landing in the vicinity Of
Guantanamo was accomplished in
broad day light, The Spaniards
made a feeble attempt at resist
ance, but they were forced to O, e
under the heavy fire of the Ameii-
can vessels, So hasty was their
departure that when the Ameri-
cans landed, a first duty was to
haul down the Spanish flag left by
the enemy. In its place was raised
the stars and Stripes, at the sight
of which the marines became wildly
enthusiastic.
They offered some opposition at
first, but it was feeble. When they
saw the destruction being worked
about them, and realized the fulfill
ity of their own efforts, the Span
iards fled precipitately.
Crest Heights, point overlook
ing the harbor and the town of
Guantanamo, was chosen and made
ready for the marines who were
coming 'on the Panther. This is a.
fine, point and being impregna-
ble against attack by the enemy.
The work of landing men from
the Panther began at once. In
whaleboats, towed by launches, the
entire force of $50 men was quickly
put ashore. They formed under
command OF Lieutenant Hunting
ton and went hurrying up to Crest
Heights. The landing was effected
in an hour, without accident.
1t was known that 5000 Span
iards were assembled within five
miles of Crest Heights, and the
work of fortifying the base was
begun forthwith. The spirits of
the Americans were high, and the
work of mounting guns went for
ward aud by $3.50 o'clock the camp
of the Americans was made capa
bic of resisting any force the Span
iards would be able to send against
it.

The First Volunteer Injured

Monday a telegram from Colonel Wnod. commander of the regiment in redezvous at San Antonio. Texas, tq ioin which the Arizona eontinl gent, recently sent forward, was raised, conveyed the shocking in telligence that one of our No gales volunteers. Marshall N. Bird. son of the editor of THE OASIS, had been dangerously. if not fatally in- iured from being thrown by horse. A telegram published in the Phoenix papers stated that he had died from the effects of his injuries, but it was contradicted later. lD response to telegram of inquiry Captain McClin- tock wired later in the day that Mar shall was at the post hospital, his condition favorable for recovery but still unconscious. Tuesday Captain McClintock wired that the young mans condition was reported preca- rious, being yet unconscious, hut re- ceiving every attention at the govern ment hospital. Wednesday evening Captain McClintock again wired that Marshall was still unconscious but that the doctor had hopes for his re- coyery, which was the first word of encouragement received.
 Wednesday Mir. James B. Mix, re ceived from Harry Van Trees, one of Marshalls comrades, detailed ac- count of the accident. He stated that the men of the troop had been sent to bring in their horses from a place where they had been in keeping; toking only halters. They had been expected to lead the annals, but in- stead they all mounted, riding bare backed, without bits. Everything went nicely until the cayalcade was entering the park in which was To- cated the camp ground, passing

FEAR AMERICAN ENTERPRISE.

City Of Mexico Sept. There is bitter feeling
here among the leading European merchants
against Americans since the successful close Of
the war The feeling is wholly based on the rising
prestige Of Americans and the fear on the part OF
EUROPEANS that they will lose the trade OF Mexico
A curious outcome OF the war is the apprehension
on the part OF resident Spaniards and merchants
that their own nationality in Havana will come
here and enter into competition with them. They
ara warmly opposed to Spanish immigration into
Mexico.
The general sentiment among men in trade here
Is hostile to the growing American commercial
and financial influence. and this feeling Is mani
tested In many irritating ways. President Diaz's
administration IL friendly 10 the Americans. and
this fact enrages the newspapers In opposition 10
his government. These papers are owned Sc
cretly subsidized by resident Europeans. They are
doing all I'm their power to excite bitter feeling
against the United states
The Government papers are friendly 70 the Amer
leans as the mass OF the people. The country
was never more prosperous, and the anticipation
that American capital Is going TO invade the ter
ritory In large amounts and compete for business
with the old -estat lished European concerns makes
the latter exceedingly anxious.
