American Queen. The Kind of Men Who Make Trouble In and With Mexico. LSan Antonio Light. I 1 bo injuries tLnt Mr. Jeff Miller received in rcKiHtiug tho ftrroM ox uie juouierey po lieu havo liftd n fatal termination, and Jeff in now imniberod with tho dead, 'lue lacla I lli tana that led to tho difficulty Are mi fol low.? Miller was in a (tuloou ut Mouterey ii'id wan nt tlmt tirao upon a Kpree. He u.-imscd LiuiHolf by generally curoing tho Mcxitnnu. A Mexican officer reHentod this national infsnlt, when Jeff retorted by hitting the ollicer over over th& bead with a billiard cue. Hbtill continued to drink, and later on ho went into a private hoime, where he h id no right to go. Here he saw a lady and timdo improper proposals to her, going bo fur n to indecently assault her. She sent lor the police, who came to her assistance. Miller refused to bo arrested, and SHOT THE OFFICEE through the heart, killing hiui instantly. Another policeman attempted to make the surest oud was woundedt He then went mid sought other police, firmed withi sabres ()u seeing Miller they shot him iiutheleg. On this ho fell and the Mexicans ran on him with their swords, intending, to kill him. I tut for the intervention of the chief officer he would have been killed by the infuriated police. As it was the wounds were serious, and as his blood was in a bad state from- de bauchery their danger were increased. It w as soon apparent that amputation was neo ossary. This was dane, but he gradually succumbed and breathed his last yesterday. Joff Millor was well known in thfocity. Me was tho brother of Mr. Monroe Miller, of Austin, who is very much grieved at tho ((currenco. lie was a member of tho Tex as rangers. Tho incident is a most unfortunate one, ivit only for tho deceased's, family, but for the American people, inasmuch as it tends I widen the breach between Mixicaus and Txans. Tho American people do notcn dorse Mr. Miller's nation. Whilo they re gr?.t his death they feel that his blood lies upon his own bond. The Mexican authori ties wero undoubtedly justified in what they did, and having vindicated the law, should not feel any prejudice against the Americans, who always hold out to them tho right hand of fellowship. Timely Hint.. An exchange has the following, which puts in the proper light a matter which is Lv neinily misunderstood: "AVo aro willing I givo place in our local columns to the ii.eutiou of any visitors, the absenco of any citizen, Lis wife or his daughter, but at tho i--;iino time wo would bo glad to have tho ivm written out and handed in, or mention t.iado of it at this office. It is not snobbery to do this: it is in no way improper; Peo j h are always much, interested in knowing t lie absenco of friends, and equally glad to :mv the presence of nuy visitor upon whom they wish to call. Se-ma very sensi ble people say they don't want their names in tho papcrH. This may bo true as to a pan' or bit of evident flattery;: but it cau hurdly bo truo of the simple announcement of a visitor's name or the temporary absence f a goutlemau or lady. So. bring in the itms, we are ulways glad to get them. No visitor is more welcome to our sanctum thiu ouo who brings in nn item." Mr. "W. D. Hick, Eunis, Texas, says : 'Urown's Iron Hitters has improved the health of both my wife and myself." From "The Times." Kdilnr of Timet : Seeing an articlo in your paper last week from Arnold Parker, I w.is impressed w ith the earnestness which ho appeals to you to coutiauu to- enlighten tho w orld in regard to the means by which ho was l liiviculously cured of rheumatism and hip joint lameness by using Randall's Spavin i"'i:v. The nrticlo to which ho alludes by !r. Tiiites, cmpresscd mo so favorably with tLvi real merits of this remedy that I tried lt.klsofor several blemishes on my horses, H i' I found it the most perfect euro I ever I lied for spavins and other blemishes, as it completely removes tho enlargement in ewry instance by continuing its use for k n-eral days after the lameness has subsided.

We tho other day mode another pleasant ami inRtmetive call on our enterprising friend and fellow citizen, Mr. Lanham, of the Ban Marcos carriage Factory vtorKs. Wn found ho had inaugurated great im provements since our last previous call, cuiei or wuicn io iuo iuuuuutouu of the admirable Common Sense Engines, manufactured at Springfield, Ohio. This is die neatest and complotest thing of the kind we ever srw; the boiler and engine are so combined as to occupy comparatively lit tle space. The engine is a seven horse pow- er, and appears to De in an respects a per feu't nWa of machinery. It is used to run a Ttnnd Rawincr Machine, which executes all sorts of sawing, such as for church and school soats, brackets, ana an tnai son; oi wnrlr with wonderful accuracy and light ning velocity. Mr. Lanham is now prepar ed to fill orders for this class of work rapidly. While on the ground w e also visited the Finishiner Dentrtiueut. There we saw, as just completed by Mr. Lanham, wo behevo the nuest nuggy we ever saw, ut lont nm-tfilnlv. iu Texas. It was not only fine, but substantial, having steel axles and tires, leather top, and other things to maten. It Las, besides, an unhitching attachment, which is realiy something wonderful.
