The Railroad to North Galv-ston to be Jacob Leonard, While Diving for a Prc-
peller, Loses His Life.
About 8 o’clock this moving a West
Indian negro named Jacob Leonard was
drowned in the bay at the foot of 21tt
street.
Leonard for some time past has been
in the habit of diving and locating lost
articles under the water.
He does not use a diving bell, but
makes his submarine explorations with-
out any of the accessories generally used
in this character of work.
At 8 o’clock this morning he disrobed
upon the barge Gibbs of the Houston
Direct Navigation company, lying at the
foot of Twenty-first street, and after
taking a drink of whisky to prevent be-
ing chilled, he took a header and plunged
into the channel for the surpose of lo-
cating the propeller of the tug Louise,
which was lost in that locality some
time ago.
After brief intervals he came up twice
without having located the lost pro-
peller and went down the third time on
his searching mission. This time he
failed to come to the surface, and they
are now searching for his body with
grappling hooks.
Officer Moran was present and took
charge of his clothing and other effects.
The deceased is a married man and has
lived in Galveston for several years.
About two years ago while under the
water trying to disentangle a rope which
had caught in a propeller he came near
meeting the fate which overtook him
this morning. At that time he re-
mained under the water for so long a
time that another diver went down and
rescued him. He was pulled out of the
water unconscious and was taken to the
Sealy Hospital wheie some little time
elapsed before his recovery.
There is no well established theory as
to the cause of his drowning. Some
think be was taken with cramps, while
others are of the opinion that in en-
deavoring to come up after the third
dive he got under the barge and was
unable to extricate himself.
Later—The body of Leonard was re-
covered about noon, aud, after an in-
quest, will be turned over to his wife.
A Photographic Fad.
Those little souvenir pictures have be-
come quite a fad of late, and so great is
the demand for them that Mr. Justus
Zahn, the popular photographer on Tre-
mont street, has decided to make them
in different styles at prices ranging from
$1.50 and upwards per dozen.

Advantage of Living in a Desert.
A blessed country is the arid region.
From nearly every portion of it where
the land is irrigated come reports of fine
crops of fruit and grain. In a few cases
only are there reports of less than an av-
erage crop, and these tales are few and
far between. In one portion of eastern
Washington fears were felt for the
wheat crop, but it was soon discovered
that although the straw showed the ef-
fects of warm, dry weather, the heads
were filled with plump berries and the
crop was safe.
Cheering reports come from Arizona
and New Mexico. The former territory
comes to the front in great form as a
fruit producer, and promises to rival
California hereafter both as the earliest
producer and in the quality of its prod-
ucts. Colorado grown berries of all
kinds would seem to be without a peer
in the world, yet eastern Washington,
Idaho and Montana have produced simi-
lar fruit gigantic in size and luscious in
flavor.—Arid Region.

Filed Today in the Different
Courts for Damages.
In the district court Green Rogers
files suit against the Galveston City
Railway Co. for $5000 damages, alleging
in his petition that on or about the 13th
of last April, while attempting to get on
to one of defendants cars near the corner
of Thirty-first and avenue L, the car
was started before he was fairly on it,
throwing him to the ground and break-
ing his leg.
In the county court L. Harris sues M.
E. Tansick for $1000 damages. This
suit- grows out of the assault made upon
Harris by Tansick on Market street on
the 6th of September. Plaintiff alleges
that the defendant at that time assaulted
him with an iron-handled whip, in-
flicting permanent injuries; that his
head was badiy ent and lacerated and
his left hand and shoulder badly beaten ;
that he had paid large sums, to-wit, $25
to a doctor for medical treatment; that
before the assault he could easily earn
$300 per month, bnt now >bis earning
power has been reduced io zero. He
iherefore prays for damages in the above
name sum—$500 actural and $500 exem-
plary damages.
In Justice Spann’s court Solomon
Parr files suit against the Interna’ional
and Great Northern and Gulf Colorado
and Santa Fe Railway companies
jointly for $100 damages for the killing
of a fine cow. It appears that the cow—
a very valuable animal — was killed
where the tvo roads intersect, hence,

has attained to such an advance, that
artificial teeth are now worn with com-
parative comfort. When made by the
Morris Patent Process they are thin as
paper, light as a feather and elastic as
whalebone and cost no more than the
usual charge for thick, clumsy plates.
I have the patented right to make these
plates and I have also invented a pro-
cess for making the grinding surface of
teeth cut food like natural teeth, noothei

At the World’a Fair—Those Who Go
Must Put Up $3 and Pruvisio s.
Adjutant-General Mabry at Austin has
issued the following circular to the
Texas militia selected to represent the
state at the dedicatory ceremony of the
World’s Fair at Chicago :
“It has been definitely determined
that the provisional regiment elected to
go to Chicago can be transported to the
dedicatory exercises of the Columbian
exposition on the following conditions :
That members of the regiment pay $2
each as fare in addition to what is paid
by the state on its contract with the
railroads and that they furnish their
own subsistence to and from Chicago.
The subsistence of the troops in Chicago
will be furnished by the World’s Fair
management. This is the best that can
be done with the small amount of ap-
propriation remaining at the disposal of
this office.
“The matter of subsistence en route
can be easily arranged by each company
providing itself with a mess chest con-
taining cooked rations for six meals—two
days of travel. This arrangement will
entail but a small expense to each indi-
vidual member.
“In view of the benefits to accrue to
Texas from the appearance at the world’s
fair of this splendid body of Texas sol-
diers, selected to represent her on the
occasion, and the evident benefit to be
derived by each member of the regiment
at such slight cost, it is hoped that no
hesitancy will occur in accepting the
terms mentioned above.
“The occasion will be worthy of the
trip, as everything at the dedicatory cere-
monies will be on the grandest scale.
“The companies selected by the board
will at once meet and act upon the above
proposition and let this office know the
result of same. Time is pressing in
which to make the necessary arrange-
ments. Regimental, staff' and field offi-
cers will also notify this office.”
As the Washington Guards of this
city have been selected among the
companies that will go to Chicago, an
Evening Tribune reporter saw Captain
Aguilo this morning and asked him
what effect this order would have upon
the attendance of the Texas militia at
the World’s Fair.
“I think the effect will be detrimen-
tal,” replied Captain Aguilo. “The $2
per capita don’t cut much of a figure,
but the furnishing of provisions en
route will put the companies to a good
deal of trouble.
“Further than this the state obligated
itself to furnish new uniforms to such
companies as would need them for the
trip and I don’t think that this has yet
been done.”
“The season of the year upon which
this trip will have to be made is another
drawback. It occurs just at the open-
ing of the busy season, as we are re-
quired to be in Chicago on October
19 h.”
“The time will be the greatest obstacle
in the way of the attendance of the
Washington guards. WTe had a meeting
last night to discuss this matter, and out
of thirty members present'only six or
seven could say positively that they
would go. We now have a committee at
work among employes with the view of
getting permission for the men to go.
“The recent order of General Mabry
will not prevent the attendance of our
company, provided the men can get off',
but the iurnishing of provisions will
preve quite an annoyance.”
Sentimental Suicides.
The crop of suicides is larger this
year than ever before. Hardly a day
passes that the morgue does not
claim several victims, and the coroners
are kept busy issuing permits for the
burial of aristocratic suicides who shed
their mortal shackles amid wealth and
luxury. It is remarkable that these un-
fortunates should choose the summer
time for their ghastly work, when life
seems to offer so much to the weary, the
oppressed and the disappointed. I asked
one of the keepers of the morgue today
how he accounted for this.
His reply confirmed my own opinion.
Said he: “You notice that most of the
‘stiffs’ are women, don’t you? Well,
them’s all ‘sentimental suicides.’ The
gals has been disappointed in love or
suthin o’ that kind, and when they sees
other folks enjoying life—th’ singin o’
th’ birds, th’ flowers, an all that sort o’
thing, ye know—it makes them feel
wuss’n ord’nary, an they go off’n jumps
into th’ river or cuts their throats.”—
