New Soldier of the Legion.

A soldier Of the legion lay starving in the
camp,
The girls were not about him, for the
grass it was to damp,
And he loathed the cold potato and the
bread which broke his fast
And wept for the cold bottles and hot
birds that were past.
And a comrade knelt beside him in the
chill and falling dew,
As ne heard OF the deserters, and he
swore he'd skip off too:
While the boys we're serenading, just to
make the colonel kind.
Playing softly playing sadly, playing
"Bacon on the Rind."
Said a soldier Of the legion as he heard
the music's storm,
"Give my best girl the brass buttons
which are my Uniform.
She can fix her shirt waist with them
she can wear them on a string,
On the string where she has had me for
month or more by jung,
l would dare all dangers for her, never
show the foe my back,
But the dravest heart will weaken after
three days OF hanback,"
Then the soldier OF the legion left the
infantry behind,
And the band kept on playing, playing
"Bacon on the Rind."

CRIMES OF A TEXAN.
Steals n Gun, Fires a Building and
Kills His Wife and Himself.

WACO, Tex, March 15.-Ed Bean, at Ble-
ton, thirty-five miles south Of here, after
a night spent in robbery and arson, attacked
his wife in a fit of jealousy about daylight
this morning. The woman fled from their
home through the principal street of the
town pursued by her frantic husband. armed
with a shotgun and a revolver. The man
approached near enough to the fleeing
woman TO make sure of his aim, when he
fired a load OF shot into her head AS she
fell face down he emptied the second barrel
into her body, after which he fired q bullet
from the pistol into his own head, blowing
out his brains Few people were astir and
the deed was done before any of the horror
stricken spectators could interfere. The
sound of the shots had scarcely died away
when flames were seen issuing from the big
hardware store of Wilson * Austin, which
was totally destroyed with it's stock. An
examination showed that the weapons used
by Bean had been stolen from this store,
and he had evidently set fire TO the place
after obtaining the weapons and ammuni-
tion with which to kill the woman. The
loss on the hardware stock and store Is
about S25. .0O0 with s., coo insurance
