A bummer argues "There is
more whisky drank now than before
the saloons were closed." The bum
mer exaggerates wonderfully. We
would hate to stand on the corners
and lie in the interest of drunkard
makers. We don't know how much
pay they get, but it is certainly very
small business for men who have
some pretensions of dignity. When
they get real dry they can sneak
around to the back door and sneak in
aud get a drink, aud then sneak out
again but its no use to make asses of
themselves by such 'silly twaddle as
they usually get off for the drunkard
maker.
At a meeting of the city council
Monday evening a petition, with
about 100 names on It was presented
praying for saloons In Brownville.
There was no remonstrance. The pe
tition was disposed of as follows:
After the clerk had read the preamble
and names, councilman Huddart
moved that the petition lay on the ta
ble two weeks. Councilman Judkins
seconded the motion ; motion lost.
Councilman Robinson then moved
that the prayer of the petition be
granted. This motion fell for want
of a second. Councilman Gilmore
then moved to lay the petition on the
table, which motion prevailed by a
vote of five to one. Mr. Robinson
voted in the negative. Three-fourths
of the good citizens of Brownville
join in congratulations to the honor
able Council. The principal allega
tion of the petition and groundwork
of the burden of the prayer of this he
roio but thirsty one hundred, to-wit:
that the business of the city is suffer
ing for want of dram shops and beer
holes, is untrue. The moBt extensive
business men of the city say to us
that It is untrue.

The musical entertainment for
the benefit of Miss Fannie Arnold
Tuesday night was a grand affuir.
Never before did so large an audience
assemble in Brownville on a similar
occasion. This fact was one of the
best compliment that could be bestow
ed upon Miss Arnold at home ; evinc
ing that her talent is appreciated, and
that she is an honored and respected
favorite with those who know her
best. Miss Arnold appeared on the
regular programme only in the solo
"Roberto O Tu che Adoro," aud sung
ItBupeibly; at the end of which a
shower of bouquets fell about her
from tho audience and in answer to
the persistent encore she appeared
again with another beautiful song.
The programme was an excellent one
throughout, and served well to bring
out the vocal powers and melodies of
some of the sweetest singers in
Brownvllle. We would not be un
derstood as making or intimating In
vidious comparisons where all did so
well, and with only thelntentof recog
uizing andencouraging extra talent in
young ladies as well as gentlemen, do
we make special mention of the vocal
powers and charming voice of Miss
Belle Morris, who, under the training
Bhe Is receiving is developing extraor
dinary vocal powers, and with contin
ued culture and thorough schooling
by the masters of operatic singing
will, without doubt in our mind, de
velop into starof nosmall magnitude.
Singers, like other people, have their
advocates and admirers, but what
could be more thrilling and soulful
than the angelic voice that thrilled
the audience in the little song of
"Robin-red-breast" Miss Alice Hitt.
Petty sneak thieves during the
past week have been quite busy of
nights disturbing various persons
about town. Their style Is to unlock
doors that have keys in the locks by
inserting burglars' pincers into the
key hole and turning the bolt with
the key. Thus far their maraudings
have been without much profit, noth
ing worth mentioning having been
lost by any one, except Mrs. Hatch
ett. On Thursday night last the
burglars entered the residence of A.
W. Nickell, by unlocking a door, but
were scared away without taking any
thing with them. And Friday night
in the Bflme way they entered the
house of Mr. West, but nothing missed
from the house except a bosom Btud
orpin worth about two dollars. Cases
are reported of them going Into kltch
eus and cellars and helping them
selves, to milk and cold victuals, and
at one place they left lying on the
floor, a heavy club driven full of pro
jecting nails; rather an ugly looking
weapon to be hit over the head with.
It is not certain who these miscreants
are, but the prevailing opinion is
that they are not tramps but livo In
and about the city. Wo can hardly
believe It the work of tramps, for all
suspicious looking strangers that ar
rive in town are "spotted'' at once by
our police, and closely watched, and
after a brief sojourn, unless they can
give satisfactory account of them
selves, are set across the river or es
corted to the limits of the city with
the admonition to "git." Whoever
these night prowfers may be some of
them will yet.get into the wrong
house or wake up the wrong person.

we would be sorry to advise or
say anything adversely to the best In
terests of our farmers; but regarding
the disposition of their wheat, we
have remarked that wo would sell on
ly enough at present prices to meet
present emergencies. We base this
conclusion on facts and figures pre
sented estimating the crops of Eu
rope; and demoustrating the univer
sal failure in the wheat producing
portions of the old world this season
to produce their own bread, by a laok
of many millions of bushels. In ad
dition to what we have already pub
lished tending to prove that a much
higher price will reward those who
can hold their wheat for a time, If
good, we find a late grain circular
published from London estimating
the supply of wheat which will be
needed to support the deficency in the
crops of the following countries :
Bushels.
Great Brlltaln . U2.000.uo0
France 10U,OOO.UUO
Italy, Spain. Portugal - 25,C00,0CJ
Hollnnd.Uelglutn Jt North Germany ij.000.000
Scandinavian States 10.000.0M
Total bushels l.2.000.000
The Chicago Tribune commenting
on this subject says : "The probabil
ities of supplies from other parts of
the world are, in view of the circum
stances and appearances up to the
latest dates, thus given in the grain
publications of England and of the
continent: From Hindoostan, noth
ing on account of the drought ; from
Egypt and all the North African
Coast, nothingjbecause of the drought;
Contral Europe, including Austria,
Hungary, Danubiau Principalities,
and Turkey, will have no exportable
surplus. Northern Russia will have
no surplus. The rye crops of Germa
ny aud Prussia propper.owing to par
tial failure and May frosts, will be
9hort, and those states will be large
buyers of wheat. A Berlin merchant
writes that the Russian crops of
wheat and rye will not be as good as
last year, owing to drought In eome
sections, floods in others, and locusts.
Rye is the great food crop of Germa
ny aud Russia, and holds a higher
relative per centage of acres than
wheat. This rye crop is expected
now not to exceed 60 per cent, of an
average season, and the wheat crop is
poorer than last year."
