A Free Bridge.
The necessity for constructing a free
bridge over the Trinity river opposite this
city, has been so fully discussed in our
columns, that but for the importance of
the subject we would not refer to it again.
The commissioners court of Tarrant
county convened on yesterday, and took
under consideration the proposition for-
merly suggested by Judge Cummings,
that the citizens should advance one-half
of the funds. When this question was
fully discussed a vote was taken upon it
and resulted as follows : Messrs. Young
and Chapman voted for it, and Messrs.
Morrison and I errell against it. Judge
Cummings having the casting vote, gave
it in the negative, thus defeating the very
plan proposed by himself.
Not being fully posted on the financial
condition of the county, nor being
advised with reference to the
embarrassments which surround this
question, we can only express our regret
at the temporary delay caused by the ac-
tion of the court, or rather the non-action.
The citizens of Fort Worth, and the plan-
ters on the north of the Trinity, are unan-
imous in their wish for a free bridge, tole
constructed by the city and county. As
an evidence of the interest taken by our
business men, about $2,500 was subscribed
on the plan proposed by Judge Cum-
mings.
If the court will agree to refund the
amount advanced by voluntary subscrip-
tion; the citizens should redouble their ef-
forts and advance the whole amount. We
make the appeal direct to the farmers and
to the real estate, owners of our city. The
merchants arc always the most liberal and
prompt in aH mbasttfbs looking to the ma-
terial advancement of our city, and we feel
confident that they will do’ their part with
pleasure.

The macadamizing on Houston street,
between First and Third, is nearly com-
pleted. The foundation is laid with large
limestone rock put on edge compactly,
with a heavy coating of sand and gravel
covering it.
L. K. (High Toned) Brown, is in our

paper business. Mr. Brown is known all

The time when a man fully realizes that

The most horrible accident, and rrs'ost
painful death, that has been our duty to
chronicle, happened yesterday evening
at the Pacific Planing Mills, in the south-
ern portion of our city. Mr. William D.
Hill, who had just received a position at
tiiis mill as engineer, and who is a practi-
cal engineer, was putting rosin on a belt
to prevent its slipping, and while doing
so, got his arm caught between the shaft
and belt, and the poor man was instantly
drawn in among the shafts, wheels, etc.,
of the machinery. Mr. Buddy, hearing
some unusual noise proceeding from the
engine room, went in to see what was
wrong, and was horrified to see the body
of Mr. Hill firmly wedged in among the
machinery, and flying through the air with
such force, that whenever his feet struck
the floor at every revolution, they broke the
floor. Mr. Buckley stopped the engine as
soon as possible and Mr. Hill wes extrica-
ted. His body was one mass of bruised
and mangled flesh and broken bones. Mr.
Hill was sensible after lie was released, but
his sufferings were indiscribable. Death
soon came to the relief of the poor suf-
ferer.
He was a brother of Mr. G. W. Hill, en-
gineer of the Panther fire company, and
the remains will be sent to New Albany,
Indiana, where his parents live.

This excellent company gave their third
and last performance here last night at
Evans’ Hall, and although the weather was
very unfavorable, the house was well filled.
The society play of Pink Dominoes, was
well handled, and John Dillon as Joshua
Brown, with a weakness, was rendered in'
the artictic manner common to none but
Mr. Dillon. All the company enacted their
parts perfectly, especially that beautiful
little actress. Louise Dillon. The farce that
followed, “A Quiet Family,” was highly
bnjoyed. and altogether the performance
gave general satisfaction. Should this ex-
cellent troupe visit our city again they will
be warmly welcomed.

A little sensation in the shape of a case
of seduction, or an attempt at the same, is
in the wind, but we withhold the full par-
ticulars. A young gentleman, who is con-
nected with a commercial house in this
city, took a young lady out buggy riejing
on Sunday, aud attempted to get his com-
panion to accompany him to a house of ill
fame in tlufeastern portion of the city, a
place where he had previously been aud
engaged a room. By some good interfe-
rence of providence, he was thwarted in
his design. We understand that some le-
gal steps will be taken in regard to the"
matter.

You can buy a cane fish-pole for 25

Sunday as you can one that is in sections,
and a religious outside appearance is worth
$17 to most men.
