LOCATED.
The Fish Bros.' Wagon Works Located on the Bairsdorf Sabdivision.
Four Tempting Offer* Which itWil be Well for Large Manufacturers to Take Notice of in Seeking for Locations
From Saturday's Daily.
The stockholders of the Fish Broa.' wagon works met last night at the offioe of President Collett. The report of the committee on location—Messrs. Fish Hullman and Eshmaa— was made. Mr. Fish had finally decided In favor of Mr. Ashman and took the Bairsdorf location. This committee having been appointed to decide the location the report was ao cepted by a vote of a majority of the stockholders. The tire proposals which figured before the committee were as follows: 1. The Bairsdorf site, just east of Fourteenth street and south of the Yandalia railway. Four acres and a half were offered for $6,000. This sum was raised by subscriptions of interested real estate owners. It was necessary, however, to buy additional lots and a house belonging to Mr. Steumpfle which makes the total cost of the ground $10,300, ov a cost to the Waeon works of $4,300. 2. The Hulman site, just west of Third street and south of Hulman street. Eight acres were offered beside $6,000 in cash subscription guaranteed by Mr. Hulmaa. 3. The Mackey site of six acres on the E. & T. H. south of Poplar street to which Mr. Anton Mayer added a guarantee of $2,000 in cash. 4. The Mercer site north of the city, of ten acres, donated. 5. The Capt. Law site of 10 acres northeast of the city offered for $1,000, but to which a cash subscription of $1,600 was added.
All ot these are desirable sites, and although tbe advocates of four of them are somewhat disappointed, it is a matter of pride and satisfaction to us all to know that Terre Haute is so wide-awake. The Board of Trade will print these propositions in a circular, to send out to all manufacturers. Added to our advantages ot coaljand railway facilities, such liberality as these displayed will be certain to induce manufacturers to Come ..are.
THH BUILDINGS.
The buildings to be erected by the Wagon Works Company will be of brick, and cost about $25,000. Work will commence next week when Col. Fish will return from Bacine. There will be a' large two story building and three wings into which the switches will run.
A CATTLE QUEEN OF TEXAS. yi
Mrs. Rogers, Who is Worth a Million and Who Can Ride Like a Cow-Boy. Galveston Letter in the Inter-Ocean.^ -.
There is a genuine cattle queen in the person of Mrs. Rogers, who lives between the King ranch and Corpus Chrlsti, about fifteen miles from the latter place. Her first husband was a cow-man named Babb. Bight here I should explain that a decided distinction and difference exists between a
14cow-boy"
and a "cow-man." The
former is a hired man who rides after the herd the latter is his employer who owns tne cattle. Well, after Babb, from a small beginning and by good management and thrift, had accumulated a herd of 4C,000 oattle, he died, and left all to his better halt, who had been a helpmate in every sense of the word, and not only understood the cattle business, but bad managed it successfully during her husband's long illness.
Widow Babb was not only thrifty, but sh^was pious and belonged to the Methodist persuasion. A young preacher by the name of Rogers came along, and theiesuitwas a matrimonial one, although the odds in age were in favor of the parson by something like twentythree years. She had no children and he had seven, but she took the motherless bairns under her wings, and the alliance ha? turned out in every way successfully. Sogers A ad not long been married to the widow and her cattle when he acquired a bad case of bronchitis and was compelled to give up preaching. Such cases are frequent. But the widow ?rave him notico that she was competent to run the ranch and kept the cattle in her own name. Rogers knew no more about them than any of the neighbors. He took to politics when be found his services were not needed at the ranch, and is now the Democratic member of the Legislature from Nueces county.
Mrs. Rogers, although worth a round million, lives in quite an humble home, and appears to have no ambition further than to cafry on the business hc-r hueband left her and accumulate money and cattle. She poes to Corpus Christi every week or so to sell stock or pprchase supplies, but has no taste for dress tr society.' She is 50 years old, but rides a horse like a cow-boy and does not even own a carriage. She never entertains any one except tbe few people who visit her place on business, and lives in the plainest possible manner.

BRAZIL COAL MINERS.
Regu-
Intimidation Being Used By the lars—Prospect of Trouble. BRAZIL, April 2—The strike of the coal miners is beginning to assume a more serious aspect. Hitherto the miners have simply acted in thu negative, and their taetics have been simply to refrain from working at the proposed reduction, ana no coercive measures to intimidate others from work have been resorted to. Yesterday, however, news reached here that measures of intimidation had been successfully resorted to at Fontanet and at Rosedale, and a large assemblage of striking miners was collected at Erlishe's mine, aoeut two miles west of Brazil. This is a bituminous mine and is not involved in the strike, as tne coai is of a different character, and the price of mining is always regulated by different conditions from those which govern in the block coal mines. However, the stiikers, perhaps emboldened by their success at Fontanet and Rosedale, must have concluded to put a stop to operations in this mine also, and for that puipose an assemblage of several hundred miners was found around the mine, who informed tbe men going to work that they should net go in. All who had not entered the mine before the assembling of tbe strikers obeyed the behest and remained outside. Some difficulties are reported, but so far nothing serious. The sheriff was sent for and proceeded to the scene of the difficulty. It is hardly believed that this action is authorized by the regular miners' organization, and is probably the work of the less responsible elements.
Another special from Brazil said: "The block coal men have been out since February 28, and cases of destitution are becoming common."
