THOUGHT HIM A SPY.

An English officials Narrow Escape
In France In 1870.
The thrilling adventure which befell
Captain Haworth, one of Queen Vic
toria's messengers. wildly illustrates
the perils of the diplomatic service
when member of that corps is
traversing a country where the storm
and stress of war is raging.
1t was during the Franco-German
war, and Captain Haworth was on his
way home charged with dispatches
from the English ambassador, then at
Tours. He got as far as the town Of
lie Mans. when something suggested
to the excited townsfolk the idea that
he was q Prussian spy.
He was arrested, carried before the
JUICE de paix and required to give an
account of himself. He explained that
he was in the service of the British
government and produced his creden-
tials. He was then asked to show the
contents of the little bag which, as he
affirmed, contained his official dis
patches This he absolutely refused
to do, though he showed them the gov
eminent label and seal.
His refusal was thought suspicious,
and he was plainly told that unless he
could produce some more satisfactory
evidence he must be prepared to die.
The unluclIy messenger was actually
led away for execution and was saved
only by some little glimmering of com
mon sense in the captain of the guard
he was committed to.
This officer demonstrated with his
prisoner on the folly of refusing to
satisfy the court by submitting his pa
pers to their inspection. Captain Ha-
worth told him that their bullets should
go through that bag and his breast at
the same time and that then they
would have to reckon with the British
government. The officer seemed to be
impressed and sent him back to the
authorities. After further parley the
Englishman was ordered to clear out
Of the town with all speed, an order
which he did his best to comply with.

How Kingfishers Perish.

Dreadful is the death of the stately
kingfisher. A hard winter is his Ger
tain doom. Long observation seems to
Indicate the birds do not migrate, and
from having to enter the water for
their prey in winter their dripping feet
quickly become incased in ice. As in
hard weather it is only possible for
them to alight either on snow or ice or
in water. it is easy to see how the ice
around their feet would quickly accu-
mulate and bring about a lingering
death.-LOndon Globe.

Women and Their Fears.

Not half the horrors that women
suppose are going to happen to them

ture of the gentle sex to expect and
look out for them; to anticipate what

women nurture it, too, it is so nebu-

THE NEW LIQUOR LAW.


The Retail Liquor Dealers As
ISOLATION in recent session at San
Antonio adopted constitution
providing that the Baskin-McGre-
COR law be observed. Judge Mar
tin at Fredericksburg took the
grand jury to task because they
disregarded violations of the law.
There is but one sentiment in the
state in regard to the law, and that
is that it must be observed. The
liquor men themselves realize this,
and they see that unless the liquor
interests Of the state obey the laws
as they are written prohibition is
inevitable.
The growth of prohibition sen
timent in the whole country, and
the South especially, during the
past few years is remarkable. The
liquor dealers see that to save the
business at all they must make it
as decent as possible in every way.
They see that there must be nothing
in their manner of conducting the
business, which is really one OF
