Austin, Tex, September 26,-.Judg-
ing from reports reaching here from
Ortiz, State of Sonora, McNlcO, the
YGqui Indian warfare Is rapidly grow
ing worse instead OF uDalmg. Lieu
tenant Majeran has arrived at Torres
on his way to the City OF Mexico to
make official reports ns TO the pro-
gress of the campaign. He soys there
has been no cessation In the war
against the Indians by the Mexican
government. He reports that the In
dams have scattered into small bands
and are now vigorously waging o
guerrilla warfare and that the Mexi-
can soldiers have adopted similar tac-
tics and have also divided into small
scouting parties. There are frequent
engagements, with the Indians har-
RAISING the troops with attacks from
secure positions in the mountains and
along the rough mountain roads, not
infrequently causing much loss Of life
among the soldiers, with little harm
to themselves.
General Torres, in command Of the
Mexican troops, asks the Mexican war
department to send him q force Of
rNrales to aid him, as IL is thought
they can render very effective serv-
ice against the Indians. The Yaquis
hold the rurales in great dread, as
they are their oldtime enemy and
most formidable foe. During the past
ten days n great many miners have
arrived at Ortiz, having been driven out
of the mountains by the threatening
situation, and all bear tales Of murder
and bloodshed. Many Oh them have de-
serted paying mines in order to save
their lives. The entire country tribu-
tary to the uprising is in state of
ferment, and all the Americans are
leaving as rapidly as possible.

And Franz, the Guilty One, Was Per-
fectly Placid About the
Matter.

The woman who has n country house
comes to town these days and tells tales
of her trials and joys, says the New
York Commercial Advertiser. She came
in from Long Island for days shop
ping last week, and after glowing ..c-
counts OF her flower beds and the won
dcrful kitchen garden she had planned
Ior the summer She said: ave always
have curious experiences wits garden
workers and farm hands; not Cnot We
do much farming, but we have to keep
some one to watch over the potatoes
and keep an eye on thepeas.
This year we have a fine man and
our garden is like an English picture.
But Franz was not so good when we
got him. He came to help our farm
hand, Peter, and Peter set him to work
in the onion patch. The onion patch
was the pride Of my life. 1t was -four
ish!ng as nothing-but weeds-had ever
ffourished in my garden, and l took
more interest in it's progress than
did in my rose bower. Well, after Franz
had been busily bending over the onion
patch one morning Peter discovered, to
his horror, that his assistant had pulled
up all the big onions. Nothing but lit
tie ones remained.
when the storm of questions and re-
proaches broke over his head Franz
said, placidly: Why, the big ones were
crowding the little ones. They hadn't
room to grow. wanted to give them q
chance, and pulled up the big ones "

who comes within reach OF the tran
chain, and when free will beat Off any
dog of twice its size. But perhaps the
most striking example of the courage
OF the smaller species yet recorded is
that shown by small variety of Jungle
cat known as the fishing cat, which,
though no relation to the Canadian
fisher" is quite as courageous. One
of these,which was kept in menaperie.
broke through into the next cage and
there attacked leopard which was
three times it's own size.
The Indian mongoose possesses all
the courage of the polecat, together
with amiability and a regulated" mind.

Yesterday afternoon about half-past
two o'clock Sallie Mooney, n of the
frail females of the alley G neighbor-
hood, attempted to depart this life by
taking laudanum. The girl has a room
OF her own in a house owned by Mrs.
Bradford. After writing two letters,
n to her lover, a we'll known young
man, and the other to her father, she
drank the contents of a bottle of laud-
anum and laid down to die. By chance
her condition was discovered, DR..
Ridgeway was called, and the prompt
use of a stomach pump and other rem
edies usual in such cases pulled the
woman through.
