General Castro and General Mer-

the assault was to be nothing less than
a massacre. The federals had left only
so rounds of ammunition for each man.
Generals Castro and Mercado there

he had escaped into the mountains Of
Texas.
Major McNamee, commanding the
United States patrol, Immediately

London Slums.

The approaching demolition Of the
notorious Tabard street area reminds
one of the clearing away of another
famous slum-the Rookery Of st. Giles
which was pulled down in the forties
for the construction of New Oxford
street. It largely consisted of lodging
houses where men and women were
accommodated at two pence per night,
and was the resort Of thieves and
coiners. Many of the houses were con-
nected together by the roof, yard and
cellar in such a way that the apprehen-
sion of a criminal was an almost i'm
possible task. In some of the pas
sages traps we're set which landed a
determined pursuer into a cellar or
cesspool.-London Chronicle.

Another similar case was that of
the Menai, a ferryboat, which piled
across the Straits of Dover. In 1885
this craft was caught in a gale and
went down. Sixty persons were
drowned and only one was saved, an
old gentleman named Hugh Williams.
A similar Instance is recorded at

was wrecked on the Isle Of Man with
so persons on board. One was saved
