port in (bis domestic storm. There are other
fice pieces in this display, which are de-
serving of mention, but space will not per
mit. It is tcfUcient to say that this is the
fir.ott collection we have ever seen, and the
at tittle arrangement is sneh as to do credit
to any master in the art of home decoration,
and would arrest the attention o£ the dull-
est, even at our great world fairs. Sach
elaborate, expensive and tasteful displays
is one of the secrets of the great success of
this Dallas association, and we trust
the Kew Home Sewing Machine com-
gHiiy will be able to come again,
nrely no shoddy machine needl apply for
patronage in IVxss after this, _ and surely
none but a machine possessing absolute
and positive rn?ri' worthy of the above
awaidend of
well spread popularity
could afford to advertire in such a wav. We
must commend the wisdom of the manufac-
turers of this excellent machine in opening
not a state agency merely, bat a branch
office in the city of Dallas.
THE TEXAS HOUSE AGAIN HOOKED.
To the observer it would appear that
Clarke & Courts "won't down." Only Fri-
day they were awarded three premiums,
but here they "bob up again" to-day and
capture one more. The star of the Texas
House is indeed in the ascendency. The
premiums they took Friday were for the
best display of blank books and stationery,
the best bound books and the best general
display of printing. They also entered In
competition their boetset of office furniture
andlifixtures, and for which they were
awarded the first premium over their com-
petitors, their display in this line consisting
in pert of the ideal cabinet letter file-blank
cates, desks, chairs, tables and documeut-
filirg eases. Not being manufacturers of
these goods they have no interest in selling
one system or style over another, their aim
beitg to sell the best and something they
can fully guarantee. The system of me-
tallic and fire proof vault fixtures, consist-
ing of roller-shelving of document-filing
drawers, -which are now being bronghi for-
waid tor those reliable houses, are ojastd
ered by all to be the most complete vault
system in the world, and they challenge
a denial from any source that the system
can ever be approached, much less im
proved on. Counties desiring to
adopt such a system should not
place their orders before fully
ifcvestigating its merits. The Tex»s Homo
is, as its natre would imply, a Tesas insti-
tution, doiEK business as it does ail over
the state. It is proverbial with this firm
to never lose a customer bat to add new
ones every day. This establishment in
Galveston, one of the fiuest buildings
in the city, is appointed with dne regard
for the coalort of the employes, a small
army beiEK constantly at work in order to
keep up wuh the large volume of trade
bandied by them. Their victory is appre-
ciated beyond measure alike by themselves,
of courEe, and their host of friends through-
out the state.
TEE MEXICAN BANDITS.
Stveial Arrests Made by Concerted Action—
Caught at Defrauding the Government.
Brownsville, T«., November 5.—The
rangers, a sheriff's posse and the Mexican
troops maCe a concerted move against the
bandits last night, who were between Kio
Grande Ci!y and Edenburg. It is not known
with what result.
The Cosmopolitan of to-day publishes
the following: VFe were permitted to day
to see sn extract from a letter from a mer-
chant in Rio Grande City to one here, bear-
ing date of November 1. It said: The

given for Don Gregorio Garcia, brother in-
law to Jim Nix, to pay $100 winch he prom-
ised the bandits in order to have his lite.
They had previously disarmed him, and
also took his horse. Niglit before last they
robbed the store ot Magdalena Flores at
the Havana ranch, and Magdalena is now
making arrangements to move to town.

At 3 o'clock t&s morning Deputy In-
spector of Customs George Futegnot came
onto two ox carts, apparently lotided with
hay, which were coining into the lower
part of town. An examination revealed
several sacks of wool, which were hidden
under the grass. He took in the whole outfit
end two men and two boys, which were
with it. It is said the wool belongs to Ira
Etiquia Falcon, who lives on the other side
of the river. The capture produced six
oxen, two carts, 1046 pounds of wool and
the following prisoners: Pablo and Atan-
acio Rotas, Jose Maria Merado aud Severo
Elano. The prisoners were examined to-
day before Jules Loucado and bound over

THE CAFFARBL SCANDAL.
Faris, November 5.-—The report of the
committee appointed to inquire into the
Caifarel scandal was discussed in the cham-
ber of deputies to day. M. Banday d'As-
scn declared that it was not a demand Tor
an inquiry but for the prosecution of M.
Wilson which shoold be submittedlto the
ccamber. the abuses in connection with the
seals and stamps being punishable by from
six ruoDths to three years' imprisonment.
Ho asked M. Ronvier, the prime minister,
to explain the case ot M. Wilson.
H-. Rouvier, In reply, said all documents
had been placed in the hands of the minis
tf r of justice. The dissension was general
aid ceased amid greater excitement.
M. Colparu moved that the inquiry ba
gts;«8l and that it extend bact a« far as
May, 3S77, so as to include ths advent of the
De 'Brnglio ministry.
M. Ronvier, answering M. Diwao, de-
nied that politicians had leveled rhe sc»n-
dals ggaitst President Grevy. [Applause
from tne center, and murmurs fromtltfe ex-
treme left ] Nobody thought of accusing
the cabinet of mteriering with the freelom
of power- The magistracy was above sus-
picion. He was not possessed of th? de-
tails regarding the sale of decorations.
Other facts were undeniable, but
they did not prove the necessity for an in-
quiry. [Commotion.] The president's acts
were always indorsed by a minister, there-
fore the ministers were responsible for all
such matters. Interpretations coutd ba
addiested them on matters lor which they
were responsible, but questloaj bs-
joLd the province of parliament came
within the jurisdiction of tbe judicial
power. On these grounds he was opposed
10 an inquiry. He admitted the justness of
i be feeling which inspired the chamber,but
thought it was better to let matters take
tteir'natural course.
A great uproar followed the conclusion
of Rooviei'ij speech. When order had been
jestored M. Oi lfavrns' motion was carried
by a vote of 204 to 207.
M. Jolibolis explained that the right,
though in favor of an inquiry, opposed M.
Colfavrus' motion, because they considered
it was diiecttd against the accusers rather
tian against the pniity. He moved to give
tie commission the widest powers.
M. Colfavrns spoke in opposition. The
moti' n was finally carried by a vote of 315
to 184. Tie committee report wai than
adopted.
AFRICA.
news from stanley.
I ondon, November 5.—Advices from St.
Faul de Loanda state that news has been
received tlieie from Henry M. Stanley under
date of September 8 to the effect that the
expedition had left the camp he established
about eight days journey from the Mad-
bed i country, and was advancing towards
the western shore of Albert Nvanza.
Tie men were greatly fatigued, and
sticgfled with difficulty over a distance
cf several kilometers. The most impor-
tant chiefs of the country through which
the expedition had traveled readily com-
plied with Stanley's request for food.
Stanley halted ior four days to reorganize
the expedition, and then leaving thirty
men to guard this new camp proceeded to-
ward Albert Nyanza. He intended to form
a camp on the fertile slopes o£ the
mountains bordering Albert Nyanza
and to dispatch a small advance
§uard toward Wadelai in a steel whale-
oat, uEder command of Lieutenant
Starrs, unless he heard fresh news of Emin
Bey.
Stanley says he had learned that Emin |
Bey was in good health, and that the coun-
try to the southward of Albert Nyanza had i
become much quieter. He had written a
letter to Yambucga camp requesting pro- j
visions to enable him to revictual i
Emin Bey. Owing to the events at 5
Stanley falls and tho state of the conn- i
try there was difficulty in finding
porters who were willing to penetrate in
the unknownfeonntry beyond Yatnbanga
unless Stanley accompanied them. Stan-
ley hopes to bo able to communicate di
rectly with Emin Bey by September 15. 1'na
explorer says he found Maboli a populous
and hospitable country. He was compelled
to abandon his route along the Arnwhlmi
liver owing to its southerly course. He
discovered streams which he believes to
be tributaries of the Qaelie.
ENGLAND.
balfour's supposition*.
London, November 5.—The Daily N;,-ys
that the absurdity of Balfour's supposition
that he can suppress Ireland is only
equaled by tho absurdity of the supposition
that the liberals of Great Britain will re-
main silent on the question. If Balfour
continuesiis present course the News says
his ministry will fall amid general laughter
or public execration.
GOECHEN SPEAKS.
London, November 5— Mr. Goschen, in a
speech at Bath last evening, says the gov-
ernment only suppressed incitements to
crime. The only reason that he could see
for the opposition's charge against the
unionists ot suppressing political opinions
was that they effaced the old landmark of
morsiiiy and issued new charts,
showing what was right and what
was wror.g. With reference to
the work of the coming session, his
ey eecb or the recei.t occasion had freen mil-
understood. The government did intend to
irtrcduce an Irish land bill and a large
English local government measure. Tney
intended to deal with the questions as
ft eedily as possible. They would also deal
with parlii'.mentary procedure and financial
reform.
GERMANY.
NEW RIFLES.
Berlin, November 5 —The Berlin Post
states authoritatively that the government
has resolved to introduce for use in the
aixny a new and smaller repeating rifia,
probably of eight millimetres, and that the
repeaters now in use will be transferred to
the- reserves and the landwehr. The change
it.- mede necessary, the paper says, because
the French war department has adooted a
tinuilei bore liile.

A Boatman aid the Cholera.
New York, November 5.—The Commer
cial Advertiser publishes a story told by a
boatman whose reputation for truthfulness
is vtuched for, to the effect that Sanday
night last he rowed to Hoffman's island,
where cholera suspects are quarantined;
that nobody interfered with him; that he
trafficked with people on the island aad
carried ashore and mailed eight letters from
them; that one ot them offered iiiui $50 to
row him ashore, telling iiim at tno same
lime that a number of cholera suspects had
escaped, one of them last week. The boat-
roan added that among his mates it was un-
derstood that this man escaped last Friday

trem rowing away with a dozen of Italians

pleased with the result of his visit to S?c
letary Fairc-hild. The secretary asnured

health authorities in the matter of cholera

this, he believed, extended to the warning
of such vessels away from our shores.

ced election for choice of county seat a3

A HIGH-NECK WINTEB.
The Mistress o! the Whit -Home Setting the
Fashion for Washington.
The society column of the Washington
Evening Critic last week contained the fol-
lowing: The winter the eve of a presi-
dential nomination iTOlways a gay one, so
it is pretty well defined that the coming one
must be a success. Next month will wit-
ness an extraordinary activity in home
hunting. There are not many who will en-
tertain as magnificently as Mrs. Whitney,
though two or three northern ladies who in-
tend Eetiing up t eir household goods here
this winter come for no other purpose. All
these are delicious bits of intelligence for
that large and ever increasing class of in-
satiate party goers—never party-givers.
Tbie, too, is the time of the year when
society people long for a change in tt» old
established order of things. All agree now
that afternoon tea crushes are a failure.
Nobody-is pleased at the attempt to widen
the conventional halt dozen cougeulal peo-
ple about a tea table into a wild attempt to
entertain as raany hundreds. They are
ciying out for a change. Nobody is able to
inv»nt anything to fill its plaw and also
luifill one's social obligations. Early hoars
rireisnother of the reforms by which evea
tlie gayest set would willingly abide if only
sonie body with prominence enough would
take the stand. Hostesses are tired of being
obliged to wait for their invited guests un-
til ten and often half-past it. As a rale
they go to Bleep meanwhile and its trying to
one's temper to have to wake up at that
seasonable hour when their neighbors are
toiug to bed.
A keen little lady, who usually tells the
signs of the times pretty well, insists that
this is to be a high-neck winter. Tfle social
statutes in London establish the line at
which one's gown mint be out, aud no 1-idy
dares to present herself at court unless this
inle has been strictly followed. It follows
that whatever the fair mistress of the
white, tonse ordains should and will receive
as wide a siguiQout.-ce. She admlnistsied a
genile but wholesome rebuke to the wear-
ers of the extraordinary lo-v cut gowns here
by bavir g her own eut modestly and bscotn
irelj". It is also quite in keeping with the
views of the best oLd most artistic design-
ers or creators .of feminine fashions, bat
w! o have found their taste laid aside to
irauiy their customer's desire for the
species of nnwoinanly and unwhole-
torne notoriety. Mrs. Cleveland
be;Lg on the side o! this very impor
taut reform, it is fair to presume
that hfr example and encouragement will
go further than any other force at tha pre-
sent hour. On the whole, while with the
exceptions named there are not many radi-
cal changes talked about, it Is safe to pre
•feme that this lfe net the year to start the
ticket syrtem to beep uninvited folks from
tie parties. In poiitieal life those who are
eitertaiDlng are doing it for a purpose, and
it will not mate rnneh difference if a stray
soat here and there runs in with the sheep.
It is pretiv well understood that the few
wl!r eB(ertalD so liberally are painful thorns
in the flesh cf many others, who want to do
scinetbing for themselves bat hate the
oieadful contrast. Oce of the more prom-
Stent bidders for the republican presiden-
tial nomination is engineering quietly
among the dinner-givers, not to offer more
ilisn tbiee brandif of champagne at one
teatt. W hat success he is having has not
yet transpired.
The Koe Murder Caaa.
Anderson, Tex., November 5.—The de-
fense in tbe Roe murder case presented in
the district court this morning a motion
for a r.ew trial, which was overruled. No-
tice of appeal was given. The counsel in

statements of fact preparatory'to taking it

Court adjourned to day, and Judge Kit-
irell leit for home.
Sulphur Springs.
Sulphur Springs, Tex., November 5.—
Acjutant general W. H. King will be at
heme for a few days.
The town is overrun with business.
Cotton receipts to date, SOOO bales.
Feiroer David Kochner of Keyporfc, N.
J , a few days ago wrote to the commission-
ers of emigration for a wife to relieve him
cf bis loneliness, wash his milk pans, ta"je
core of his dairy, and "otherwise tnake her-
self generally useful." He laid special stress
on the condition that he wimld not have a
wife with red hair, nor one with male rela-
tives. Detective Grodea recommended Liz-
zie Hali, a nurse on W^d's island, who is
21, without relatives, M black hair and
wants to marry. The result will probably
be a match.
A farmer near Lewiston, Me., used a
horse to run his machine for cutting fodder
and was much annoyed at frequent stop-
pings of the horse power, particularly as
seen as the horse was left alone. Bo he
watftied the steed, who, as soon as he
thought that he was alone, reached over
the sice of the machine, grabbed the brake
with hie teeth, pulled it over, stopped th9
machine, and waited calmly for some one
to take off the brake and start him again.
Tbe old fellow actually looked sad when
the farmer tied the brake down and started
him on the treadmill again.
B. A. Bartlett of Randolph, N. Y., has
recently given a marvelous exhibition of
his powers as a marksman with a rifle. At
a distance of twenty-five feet he hit com-
mon white beans, holding his rifle In vari-
ous positions while firing. He split in two
n postal card that was set up edgewise.
Using a 22 caliber ball, he shot through a
82 caliber pistol barrel, the bullet splitting
on a knife blade at the farther end of the
revolver barrel, and each half of the ballet
breeking an egg. He ignited a parlor
match held by a person at the target stand,
knocked tbe ashes from cigars, and con-
cluded by shooting a bean fijpm the nose of
