When it comes to extending

showing them over the city, in a
fine turn-out, Col. Simpson and

staff.

best bred mares in the state.

gramme of the exercises of the

tions of our own boys and girls
eome fine music will be rendered.
No one can fail to be interested in
the speeches of the evening. All
who like intellectual treats, good
music, and all who are interested
in our schools should be present.
On account of the great amount
of time and labor required to keep
th« city in a proper sanitary con-
dition, and on account of the
great number of beef cattle now
being shipped over the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas, may be at-
tributed the cause of Bogg street
not being opened, and the build-
ing of the new depot not being
under headway.

tinguiahed visitors - expressed
themselves as being h'ghly pleased
with the appearance of Gainesville
and in fact were greatly surprised
at finding such a beatiful metrop-
olis on the borders of Texas and
the Indian Territory. The dual
prospectors left for the north on
the 10 o'clock a. m. train, well
pleased with the courtesies shown
them while here by the genial
gentlemen with whom they met,
and indeed they were perfectly
infatuated with the city, and will
spare no paines in promulgating
their favorable conclusions in this
behalf abroad, and especially
among eastern capitalists who are
seeking suitable places in Texas
for investments.

Belcher, Evans & Co., ofBelch-
erville, general merchants made
an assignment last Wednesday to
bob Walker of that place for the
benefit of creditors. The assests
and liabilities have not been
ascertained at this writing but it
is stated upon good authority that
they owe large amounts in this
ci*y to some of the wholesale mer-
chants, and that the liabilities are
much greater than the assets. The
assigned stock was attached yes-
terday by Gainesville creditors,
one firm of which, it is said, has
claims to the amount of 13000
against the defunct firm.
Aaroa Burr Tonight.

wheat, oats and millet was
brought in yesterday morning
from the farm of Mr. McAfee, near
the seuth part of the city by Post-
masier Pierce, and shipped to
Fort Worth to be placed in the
Spring Palace. The cornstalks
wsere 8 feet high, oats about 5 feet
millet about the same in height
and the wheat was as tall asjack's
bean stalk, with heads as large
u aome festi ve sport after a week's
imbibing ot Jersey lightning. It
waa indeed a magnificent exhibit
and will literally speak volumes of
good report for the agricultural
condition of Cooke county.

Cooke Dessty Exhibits.
In the Fort Worth Gazette of
Thursday last is an elaborate ac-
count of the different features of
the Spring Palace and the various
county exhibits in which the fol-
lowing mention is made of Cooke
county's display:
Every visitor will pause to look
at the splendid show made by
Cooke county on the tower to the
left of the south main entrance.
The whole work is a | rofmijn of
beauty which defies description .
Like the Johnson tower, corn is
the predominating feature. Red
corn, yellow corn, white corn, all
blending in the prettiest things
of which the imagination is capa-
ble. There are doric columns,
crowned with magnificent cornices
made of wheat and corn; there are
square ornaments, diamond shape
ornaments and ornaments of ev-
ery conceivable suape. It is a
grand spectacle, a karporama in
itself, and stands as a monument
to the glory of grand old Cooke
J. P. Bray of Dall as, who has
purchased the Eberle drug stock,
is in the city making arrangements
to move that stcck to the west
side of public square, in the build-
ing lately occupied by H. De-
Berry's dry goods store. The
style of the new firm will be the
Gainesville Pharmacy company.
They Come, Saw, and were Conquered.
A. A. Green Jr., brought to the
city yesterday morning from Ft.
Worth two prospecting capitalists
who accompauied the Boston con-
tingent to Denison a few days ago,
they bein gCapt. G. O. Hallowell of
Washington Kan., and Col. F. W.
Stackpole of the State of Maine.
These gentlemen were driven over
the city yesterday in an elegant
barouche, by J. L. Simpson, in
company with other
citixens of this oity.
Taken on the Fly.
Charles W. West and J. C. Kel-
er, of Purcell, arrived here yes
terday from Purcell and soon after
reaching the city they were ar
rested by Deputy Marshal John
Salisbury, upon a telegram sent
here from Purcell by an officer at
that town. The prisoners were
placed in the county jail here
when arrested but were taken out
this morning by Mr. Sa>i bury,
who left with them on the
early morning train for Purcell
One of these parties is said to have
been connected with the gang that
broke into a freight car Wednes
day night at Purcell and Btole a o;
wisky, while the other oue is
wanted for assault. These pris-
oners stated to the officer here
that the jrhiBky taken from the
ear that night was shipped by
one Taylor of Gainesville, and
that the shipper had been arrested
at Purcell by deputy marshals

the Sight at a Wolf I
He waa along in year*, aa I saw by
his iron gray oeara, and I aai
„ _ iW upon
his goodd that his name was Croat.
He was a tall man, and his build
showed that he waa a man of great
muscular jxnver. He examined the
wolf skin lor a moment, then threw it
from him. muttering a deep curve, the
meaning of which I did not under-
stand. I privately asked my friend
what it meant.
"Ah!" suid he, "he has a sad story
jo tell."
My neighbor, who had only come as
a guide, went home in the aifternoon,
ana as Mr. Cross was somewhat fa-
tigued by the journey from the set-
tlement, we dia not leave the camp
tliat day. 1 was very anxious to hear
Mr. C.'s story, and after supper we sat
around the fire for some tune, telling
about the moose and the various
thini
few
which was the name of the locality
where we were stopping. After my
friend and I had exhausted all our

Jes. not forgetting that awful night's
atching at the camp door, we asked
Mr. Cross to tell us something of his
hunting exploits.
"I have but one story," he replied,
"that will much interest you, but I do
not often tell it," and I saw a tear
glistening in his eye.
I told Ti im we would be pleased to
hear his story, but did not wish for
him to cull anything to remembrance
that would cause him grief. He re-
plied: "The wound has been healed
these many years, though often now
it seems to bleed afresh; but my story
now I will tell.
"I was born in the northern pert of
Vermont My father was a farmer,
and as 1 was the only child, my fa-
ther gavo mo tho homestead. He died
auite young and the care of the farm
devolved on me. My mother soon
became lame and unable to do the
work, and 1 resolved to marry. Dear
Louisa, a farmer's daughter who
lived but a fow miles away, was the
one to whom I rave my hear^and
hand, and. indeed^ she was worttyof
the love of any man. My mother soon
after died, ana we laid her beside her
husband in the churchyard.
"Two children were born to ui
Tommy .and Louisa. We watcl
over them in their infancy, and loved
them dearly. Tommy wua 7 and
Louie, as wo called her, was 5. School
was to commence the next MonddV,
and as they had never been to snhool]
we made arrangements to send them.
The schoolhouso vtyis about one-half
a mile off, bevond a pieoe of woods.
I went with tiiem the first and second
day, and met them at night. a« they
were afraid to tjo through the woods
alone; but the third day Tommy said,
'Papa need not go with us any more,
we can go alone.' I granted their
wish, ana soon saw them disappear,
going toward the schoolhouse, swing-
ing their little dinner paila
They hud been gone but a few
minutes. 1 1i;m1 taken up my ax, and
was about commencing to cut some
wood. I heard little Tommy scream:
'O dear, papa! O dear, papal' burst
upon my cars, and at tne same mo-
ment I heard little Lulie call mamma
mammal It is needless to say that I
rushed to their rescue, tightly grasp-
ing my ax. In one minute I saw two
wolves tearing my dear children to
pieces. With an unearthly yell, I
rushed upon them. One left my child
and sprung upon me; he lay dead the
next instant 1 sprang upon the other
that was tearing the flesh from the
cheek of my little girl; but he ran
swiftly away. Poor little Lulie was
dead- little Tommy raised his torn
and bloody hand, and faintly said:
'O papa, I wish you come fore 1' It
was his last words; in a few moments
he breathed his last. I took my dear
ones in my arms, and carried them to
my housa. My wife was at the barn.
I lay them on the bed; my wife soon
came in. She looked upon her chil-
dren, uttered a fearful wail of sorrow,
and fell almost lifeless upon the floor I
The shock was too much for her, and
indeed, more than many mothers
could huve stood, and within one
month she died a raving maniac. She
sleeps in Vermont beside her dear babes
she loved so well." When he had fin-
ished his story there was not a dry eye
in Ihc camp, and for some time not a
word was spoken. But the evening
was far bj)ctit. and we soon retired to
our beds to dream over the events of

The Gaelic Slnffer.
Gaelic song, of which the people are
ao fond, and which they sing so admir-
ably are no less remarkable for their
freedom from the slightest taint of im
purity or indelicacy thaafor their na-
tive vigor and simplicity, whatever
the theme. When we assert that the
are always well sung, the reader will
probably wonder how this should be
possible when we have at the same
time to make the admission that even
the most delightful singers are as a
rule utterly destitute of any scientific
knowledge of music. Of musical mips
and musical terms they know noth-
ing. Song is with them as with the
wild birds of their native woods and
wilds, an instinct, an inspiration; and
it is simnly the fact, strange as it may
seem, that the native singer who
knows not a note of music from the
scientific standpoint will render a
Gaelic air more musically and better
in every way than the most accom-
plished musician you can persuade to
attempt it The philosophy and
motif of a Gaelic song, grave and gay,
are so closely intertwisted, so inti-
mately blended with the melody, that
only a native singer can give them
full musical utterance; and, better,
paradoxical as it may seem, when he
is totally ignorant of music as written
The Canala of Mv*.
As to t?tc nature of the canals, it is
still more difficult to suggest any satis-
factory explanation. Several hypo-
theses have been presented, none of
which anpears entirely to meet tho
case. I liavo already remarked that
there has not been lacking the suggea
tion that these curious streaks repre-
sent the lines of actual artificial water
courses on Mara. The straight and
undeviating course which they pursue
might be regarded as lending some
degree of probability to such a view;
but the enormous scale on which they
axist seems to compel the rejection of
the hypothesis. It is true that, if we
consiaer only the influence of the
force of gravity on Mara giants could
dwell upon that planet whose
mechanical achievements might vastly
surpass the greatest performances of
our engineers; for a body weighing a
ton on tho earth would weigh only
seventy hundred and sixty pounds on
Mars, anil, on the other hand, a man
on Mars possessing relatively the
same activity us one of us might be
fifteen feet tall and strong in propor-
tion. But, even granting the exist
euce of such a race of Gollaths on our
neighbor world, it is not conceivable
that they could have constructed a
system of tremendous canate over half
tne surface of their planet, or that
they would have done it ii they could.
The canals of Man are enormously
disproportioned in magsitade to the
most gigantic inhaWtanta that a due
regard for the law of gravitatkm
would suffer us to there.—
