Pacific people that the stock shall have a

LEFT A TRUNK.
Woman Who Disappeared Left One
Behind At the Mexican Central.

OShhu fhS ShS HhSASoh SOhSA
1t will be rememb ered that sometime
ago q woman calling herself several
aliases at different times hired buggy
at the Tennessee stable, drove up to
Earlhsm and there disappeared.
Among this woman's many strange
exploits that have never been publish
ed was q visit to the Mexican Central
depot in Juarez. While there she told
Agent Comfort the same story that
she related to the clerks in WALKS
store about having been offered po-
sision as chief train dispatcher at Chi
huahua, and endeavored to secure a
free passage over the line. At frstshe
claimed to have a ticket and started to
show it to Mr.. Comfort and then chang
ed her mind and left. Later she re-
turned and declared she had lost it and
wanted auother-tryiuR to make Mr..
Comfort believe she had actually shown
it to him, but failed.
She had q trunk which she had
brought to the depot and left there.
She had no key to it and said che had
lost it. She broke it open and took
some articles, the nature Of which is
not known, aud then disappeared.
Nothing was left in the trunk but
some clothes and letters addressed to
different parties. There was nothing
to show whom it belonged to and as no
one claimed it Agent Comfort had it
strapped up and shipped to the gener
al offices of the company in Mexico
City, where, so far as known, it still
remains awaiting claimant.

Ure and Horxtio Drake are introduced
as friends of Glory, who have known
her for years. The suggestion that as

made thus early in the play by Drake,
go we are prepared to find her
launched in her music hall career on
the rising of the irst-act curtain.
John Storm, already working in his
career as q slum missionary in Soho
Square, visits Glory in the saloon of
the music hall and proceeds to lecture
her In most amazingly plain talk on
the dangers she is in from her sur
rouudings. Storm tells Drake and
Lord Robert tbat he will not rescue
Glory from them. His Lordship says:
ooh, it is a duel?" John Storm re-
plies: Eyes, the duel: you for her
body. and for her soul"

THAT CORN DUTY.
Denial OF the Report That 1t Is To
Be Raised BY Those Who Should
Know


Be Raised BY Those Who Should
Know
There have as yet been no indications
of any intention upon the part OF the
Mexican government to remove the
duty on corn as was reported would be
done. The officials in Juarez profess
entire ignorance of any such intention .i
aud cay that so far as they
know tbere is no possibility
that it will be done.
The local officials of the Mexican
Central have received no information
regarding it. AS their road would
have the hauling of any corn that
might be shipped in consequence they
would no doubt be notified of any in
tended action so that they might be
prepared for 1t.
One of the local officials when ap-
preached on the subject said, 81 feel
sure that if anything of that kind WAS
intended we would be informed of it, as
we have men who make it
their business to keep posted
on such matters. Of course you know
this country is not like the United
States in this respect. Here there are
fewer papers and such things are plan
ned and carried out much more
quietly and secretly and
known until the last minute.
There seems also to be something
of misunderstanding as to the action of
the government in regard to such
matters in the past: The duty has
not been removed every year as a
regular thing but only on occasions
when the crops have failed and
it has been necessary to prevent
a famine. The last time was some
four years ago when large quantities
of corn were shipped through here.
Moreover. the removal of the duty does
not permit any and every individual to
ship into the country free corn to sell
but only applies to such as may be sent
for free distribution among the poor
by benevolent societies and the gov
errors of the several states.'
