FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 15, 1885.
It will soon be time to make things
:‘june.”
Fort Worth continues to wrestle
with the Sunday law.
The News may not like the tenor of the
letters and congratulatory dispatches
| being received by Captain Fulton, but
the w holesale merchants and all who are
proud of the city and their homes read
them with pleasure. We all want the
people not only of Texas but the whole
world to regard Galveston as a great
commercial citadel—the gem of the
ocean—and in order to bring about and
maiutain such confidence, esteem and ad-
miration, we must have a popular mayor
and a council composed of influential
and representative business men. We
have these, thanks to the people of Gal-
veston, and our reward will be an increase
in the volume of trade and universal re-
spect and applause.
Waco, or, rather, the Examiner, is
howling for a Mai-fest.
The San Antonio Times thinks “Capt.
Atkins wishes he hadn’t.”
The fight against time by the Penn-
sylvania and Illinois legislatures still
continues.
Does the Houston Post need a syringe?
We have them for all dyspeptics that re-
fuse to take Evening Tribune gruel.
Parents will be interested in a care-
ful, practical paper by Professor A. S.
Hill, on “The Study of English,” which
will appear in the June Harper’s. Pro-
fessor Hill quotes Mr. James Payn’s little
hit against the young man “whose educa-
tion had been classical, and did not there-
fore include spelling,” and goes very
thoroughly into the mistakes and the
possibilities of training in English in a
way to be of real service.
Dallas is on another drunk. The
Times says “in all its history there was
never such buoyancy among the peo-
ple.”
It is feared that the Waco Examiner
will make the late election in Galveston
the subject for its Sunday sermon. We
hope to be spared the affliction.
—An attractive pamphlet, illustrative
and descriptive of the scenery, buildings
and natural beauties that abound on the
border of Spirit Lake, Iowa, has
been received at this office. It is a
noted northern summer resort, and a pop-
ular retreat for southern tourists. The
book is issued by the passenger depart-
ment of the Burlington, Cedar Rapids
& Northern railway, and will be mailed
free to all applicants. Address J. E.
Hannegan, chief clerk passenger depart
ment, Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
Captain Fulton is a happy man, not
because of his consoling majority but
because he has no promises grabbing at
his coat-tails crying for fulfillments.
Wonder if George B. Loving’s stock
in the gospel ship is limited. If not,
look out! He will be president of the
company before another month is an-
nounced.
North Texas has a new firm, viz
Pearson & Sterrett, evangelists and pub-
lishers. Main office in Dallas; branch
office in Fort Worth, in charge of the
Rev. Mr. Pearson.
The San Antonio Times is still proud
of Fulton. It says: “The Times again
congratulates R. L. Fulton on his elec-
tion lo the mayoralty of Galveston. It
did the same when he was elected be-
fore.”
The Arlington World gives guests the
credit of being cautious. It says: “When
a guest puts up at a Galveston hotel
now he looks out of his bed-room win-
dow to discover, if possible, where the
boiler house is located.”
In midst of its wild cheering over the
success of the people of Galveston in
electing their old mayor, the San Anton-
io Times says: “Also the Times desires
to congratulate the Galveston Tribune
on the election of Capt. Fulton.”
Poor old Austin! The Statesman says
“misgovernment has degraded the capi-
tal city, lead to murder, arson, burglary
and robbery, destroyed the fair name of
Austin and made it the hospitable home
of cut-throats and murderers.” Thank
our stars, Galveston has not even approxi-
mated that-point yet.
Edison and the “Fresh” Opeiator.
[New York Mail and Express.]
“About my first work was in Cincinnati,
in the same office with Edison,” remarked a
well-known telegraphei yesterday. “I was
fresh, then, and the fellows laid for me.
One night I was just through, when some
one called me. ‘Hello! Who is that?’ 3
asked. ‘Pittsburg. Get ready to take a lot
of press matter,’ was the reply.
“I guess there were 15 instruments in the
room, and every one was busy sending or re-
ceiving. I could take pretty well even then,
but I swear I never had such a hot wire be
fore or since. I was a whole sentence behind
copying by the time the first 100 words were
in. I broke to catch up. The sender wanted
to know what was the matter, and when I
was up I told him I had been getting more
blanks. He started off harder than before.
He wasn’t sending less than 50 words a min-
ute, and it seemed to me nearer 70. I broke
again, and he began to get mad. I said 1
was putting in a new pen. He swore and
fired away. I broke every half-minute;
sometimes oftener. By the time I had re-
ceived 600 or 700 words, we were both fight-
ing mad. I swore that he wasn’t sending
plain. He maintained that he was, and
finally, after a dozen breaks in almost as few
words, be got furious.
“ ‘Tell the operator to come there. You’d
better try shoemakin’,’ he said.
“I didn’t like to give up, but at last 1
turned around and asked for somebody to re-
lieve me. You never saw a busier crowd.
I kept on the best I could, the Pittsburg fel-
low keeping up an incessant growl all the
time. He wanted me to get a messenger, oi
a brakeman on a freight train, or the janitor,
to take my place. I had taken 1,500 word
before he let up.
“ ‘Sign,’ said I.
“‘R,’ he answered.
“The boys howled. It was Edison’s signa-
ture. He had switched on a test instrument
and had sent me a column from one of the
afternoon papers. He had not been 20 feet
away from me, but of course I did not notice
that a person in the same room was sending
the dispatch, because there were so many
tickers going all around me. I was not quite
so fresh after that.”
The people will be greatly indebted to
Col. W. H. Sinclair for the pleasures that
promise to be brought about by a visit
and exhibition drill by the famed Busch
Zouaves, of St. Louis. They are expec-
ted to arrive to-morrow and will doubt-
lessly be properly received by the
local military and the several
heads of the city government. The de-
tachment of Galveston Artillery will
probably return on the same train, and
will be entitled to share in the welcome
that will be accorded the Zouaves.
A Healthy Profession,
LBoston Courier.]
“Journalism must be a healthy profession,”
said old Mrs. Squaggs as she laid the paper
on her knee and rubbed her eyeglasses with
her apron. “What makes you think so?”
said old Mr. Squaggs. “Because I see the
writers who used to have pieces in the papers
when I was a girl are still living and writing
away the same as ever; they must be very
old.” “Who are they?” asked Mr. Squaggs.
“Well, there is ‘Veritas’ for one, and ‘Anon,’
and ‘Vox Populi,’ and ‘Pro Bono Publico,’
and many others. I see some of their names
every day, and I declare if the sight of ’em
don’t bring back the old school days.” Then
the old lady gazed meditatively into the fire,
and old Mr. Squaggs went out on to the back
stoop to indulge in a quiet laugh to himself.
The boy preacher, Bill Sterrett and
Dallas and Fort Worth are having a live-
ly time of it. Sterrett advises the boy
as follows:
The people of Fort Worth are now at
daggers points over the boy preacher.
Some of the citizens say he is bearish and
not a gentleman in his deportment, while
others declare him to be perfection.
Brother Pearson must not be cast down
by attacks on his character. He will not
be the first good man, who, in his efforts
to redeem the scabby sheep of the Fort
Worth flock, has received butts. We,
too, have suffered.
The Accomplice Is the Last Straw.}
[Fall River Advance.]
It begins to look serious for a sick mar
,when the minister comes in and begins t<
talk seriously to him, but be never gives u{
hope until he sees the doctor bring an ao
complice along with him.
A New Etymological Discovery.
[New York Mail-Express.]
‘What is an epistle?” asked a Sunday
school teacher of her class. “The wife of ai
apostle,” replied the young hopeful.
A Historical Note.
[Bill Nye.]
Plutarch says that Demosthenes made a
gloomy fizzle of his first speech. This did not
discourage him. He| finally became the
smoothest orator in that country, and it was
no uncommon thing for him to fill the First
Baptist Church of Athens full.
The News proposes to hold the board of
aldermen responsible for -the sins Capt.
Fulton may commit during the next two
years. This purpose on the part of the
News will doubtless cause Roger Lawson
to move cautiously. He is so very afraid
of the News—in a horn! A journal that
has been so industriously defied, so com-
pletely and frequently downed and so
vigorously damned by Capt. Fulton, to
now intimate that it will closely watch and
criticise his official conduct, is a display
of impudence—downright gall, in fact-
rarely met with in the avenues of care-
ful and dignified journalism. However,
as we have heretofore remarked, the
News is a humorous paper.
The Best Beer.
Tony Faust’s bdir, the best in the
world, will be kept on draft at the Two
Brothers Saloon, corner of Market and
Tremont streets, from this date. Come
one, come all. Our motto is to have the
purest of everything in our *1106, and
give proper attention to our patrons.
Yours truly, Two Brothers.

The foremost purpose of Bradstreet’s is to be of
practical service to business men. Its special
trade and industrial reports; its weekly epitome
of bankruptcies throughout the United States
and Canada, and the summaries of assets and
liabilities, are aloue worth the subscription price;
its synopsis of recent legal decisions are exceed-
ingly valuable. As commercial -transactions, in
the wider sense, are coming to be more and more
conducted on a statistical basis, the information
contained in Bradstreet’s is of the first impor-
tance both to producers and middlemen.
