Mexican Herald- DO STARS EXPLODR? The appearance of a new star in the constellation of Perseus, and its rapid expansion into a nebula, which has been going on for some time past, have revived among' as tronomers the theory that some nebulae may be formed by explo sion. About 1S70, Professor Bicker- ton of Canterbury" College, New Zealand, showed that, Jf two stars should graze ne another, the abraded parts, if relatively small would have so high a temperature that they would at once become nebulous, and that the nebula so formed would, .under certain condi tions, continue to expand until dis sipated in space, i ne present ex panding nebula uas been growing at the extraordinary rate of several thousand miles a second, and is, in many ways, one of the greatest celestial wonders of time.

It fell down on him. .tie never walks under ladders now. He tnmks,there is somethin in it CHIVALROUS COWBOYS. The simple act of reverence and courtesy displaj'.ed the other day toward a funeral cortege by Col. Zack Mulhall's cowboy band was i one of the finest most chivalrous things on' record. They were "burn ing up the atmosphere" of Com merce street playing "A Hot Time1 when they came suddenly face to face with a procession of the Oblate fathers of St. Mary's bearing the body of one of their priests io the cemetery. With uncovered heads they immediately stood to one side and played "Nearer My God To Thee." An age of chivplry could not surpass, probably not equal, this simple act of reverence from these nntamed horsemen of . the plains. Laredo Times. SUBSCRIBI to the Bkowssville Daily Herald.

The Corpus Christi Caller of Iasgr Friday says: "Judge Stanley Welch returned yesterday from San Diego neitlua injured or disfigured and in p';rfee good humor, though he passed! through a rather trying situation haying been the object of a personal assault for matters relating to Im? disposition of a case on his docket The assaulting party was promptly jailed and cited for. contempt, and having disavowed such intention and pleading irresponsible impulse, was released upon the impositionof a slight fine. The judge himself assures us that he believes thevpartyr making ihe assault was truly sorry., and his own sympathies were witla the offending party in the peculiar ly unfortunate position in which he had placed himself. It was within the power of the judge to . have jailed tho offender for. three days and fined him a hundred dol lars, but concluded it Tvould have been such a personal hardship that he covered the case with the mantle of charity."
