Advance in Oil.

Beaumont, Texas, November 90
The advance in oil prices during the
week has been almost phenomenal.
There is an apparent change for the
better by at least 5 or 6 cents in that
time. The oil men are jumping the
price of oil in tanks also. Heretofore
1t has been the oil on cars that has
been fiuctuating in price and running
up and then down, while the price in
tanks has remained pretty nearly the
same all along, but now that the ad-
vance has come in that direction there
is an air of permanency about the
fields that is pleasing the many hold
ers of oil.

through the business part of the city.
When they reached a point near the
Theradneedle court, Mrs. Williams
opened her purse for the purpose of
getting change presumably. The
ladies were going to the Cordova hotel,
but they passed it while the purse was
being examined They decided in the
conversation to go to Mrs. Roberts on
Mulberry street, which was a block and
half east of where they then were.
The nearest route was through Thread
needle court, but 1t is dark place.
They started, however, and when they
reached the rear of the Threadneedle
building and passed it some forty feet,
the negro turned squarely and struck
/ Mrs. Williams a terrific blow under
the heart Mrs. Vogel screamed, and
continued 10 scream, and Mrs Will
Jams began sinking to the ground. Mr.,
Johnson came out of the Guffey offices
about that time and heard the screams
and ran to the spot and caught Mrs.
Williams. She appeared to be in bad
condition and is still critically i'll.
The negro when he struck her grab
bed her purse, which contained 500 in
money and considerable other things
of value. He tore it loose from her
belt and fed.
Mrs. Vogel is also in state of pros
tration.

A BAD EXPERIENCE
JOHN scHENKEN OF FREDERIcKa.
BURG HAD NARROW ESCAPE.
ATTACKED BY WOLVES.
The Faithful Beast Was Killed and
Eaten by the Hungry Pack-Man
Was Taken to Austin.

Austin, Texas, November 21.-John
Schenken, of Fredericksburg, was
brought to this city this evening in
serious condition and given medical
attention. He was bandaged from
head to foot with stained cotton sacks,
and was frightful sight to behold.
Schenken was attacked in his camp
about nineteen miles west of Austin
on the Dripping Springs road between
and o'clock this morning by pack
of hungry wolves, and had 1t not been
for his dog, large fox hound, he
would have been torn to pieces. AS 1t
was, that man barely escaped with his
life, and the trustworthy dog met the
fate he saved his master from.
The freighter was alone and pitched
his camp in the preceding evening
south of dense thicket for protection
from the cold. He turned his horses
loose to Craze on the range with the
exception of the leader, which was
tied and his bed was made in the
large covered wagon. About shutdown
Schenken killed large jack RABBIT and
after cleaning 1t swung 1t to the wheel
of his wagon. In little while after
he retired the wolves, attracted by the
scent of fresh meat, approached the
camp They set up dismal howl,
which aroused the teamster. He got
up with pistol in hand and the battle
commenced. He fired several shots
without effect, when the wolves closed
in on him and were tearing him to
shreds. The ferighter's dog came to
his rescue, diverted the attention of
the wolves and Mr.. Schenken crawled
into his wagon. After destroying the
dog, so loyal to his master the wolves
made no further attack on Mr. Schwen-
ken. Some settlers went to his rescue
this morning and assisted him to the
city.

plies in the affirmative, and conse-

THE BLOOD.


The blood is life. We derive from
the blood life. power, beauty and rea-
son, as the doctors have been saying
from time immemorial. A healthy
body, a fresh appearance, and gener-
ally all the abilities we possess de-
pend on that source of life. 1t is
therefore the duty of every sensible
man to keep the blood as pure and
normal as possible. Nature, in Its
infinite wisdom. has given us a Their
mometer indicating the state of the
blood, which appeals to our reason by
giving notice Of its impurity. Small
eruptions of the skin. to which we
scarcely pay any attention, headache,
ringing noises in the ears, lassitude,
sleeplessness, are generally a sign
that the blood is not in its normal
state, but is filled with noxious sub
stances. These symptoms deserve
our full attention. If more attention
we're paid to those symptoms, and
steps taken to remove them, then
many illnesses from which we suffer
would become unknown and the hui
man body would become stronger and
healthier. Attention therefore should
be paid to those warning signs, and
the blood can be purified and poison
GUS substances removed from it by the
use of DR.. August Koenig's Hamburg
Drops, discovered more than 60 years
ago.

Condition Of the People, Especially

San Francisco, Cal, November 90
The first of the refugees from the
devastated lands Of Guatemala arrived
today on the Pacific mail steamer City
Of Para. They come from the districts
OF the island sea and Travelled over
country laid waste by sand, ashes and
pumice before reaching railway sta
ton. From the latter places they
made the journey by rail to Cham
perico and there took the steamer to
San Franchises. They sailed on No
vember, when the mountain was still
smoking and the rumbling OF thunder
and flashes of lightning gave evidence
of more eruptions to come. These
people fed from their plantations, in
fear Of their lives. They escaped to
the seaside with little more than the
clothing they wore. transportation be-
ing so difficult as to preclude their
baggage. The refugees confirm the
stories of the loss Of life. The vic
tins for the most part are Indians.
They had not heard Of any white per-
sons being lost Thousands of Indians
were asphyxiated or buried in the
sand Miles of plantations are under
ashes and absolute ruin is the lot OF
many planters. One refugee comes
from within a half hours ride of Gen
eral Barillo's home and brings infor-
nation that the general and his fam
lily are safe.
A cablegram received here when the
first eruption occurred stated that
General Barillo has been asphyxiated.
The refugees say it is not the crater
OF Santa Maria that Is in action, but
q smaller mountain rising from one
of the western slopes OF Santa Maria,
called Ell Rosario.
Bands of robbers are now swarming
the desolated sections, robbing and
numbering refugees on the road and
footing the abandoned and desplate
plantations.
Those left behind lAs plantations,
It is said, are in danger of death from
starvation, as Ihe food supply has
been cut off and there is no way to
send supplies.
The steamer City of Pora found
great quantities of pumice floating or
the water and some of the pieces were
about the size of mans head. The
sea was covered with the. stuff. Wher
the vessel got up off the coast Of
Guatemala the shore was seen to be-
covered with light ashes. At Cham
perico there were about half an Incl
of ashes over the roofs of the house!
and the ground was covered as though
there had been a snowstorm. Ashes
We're then falling, although 1t was six
teen days after the first eruption. Dur
