The Daily Democrat presents its col-

the very best medium for local adver-
r, ^ tlsing within their reach., Its circula-
tion warrrihts this announcement, and
its hour of distribution defies adverse
. criticism. Inquiry into Its merits is ln-
^ vlted, and corresponding patronage so-
licited. If deserving, let it be liberally
sustained—if unworthy of public coiiil
dence and support, let it perish.

ANOTHER SLUGGING HATCH.

men Fooling: on an Unknown—

The cattle men are flocking into the
city on every train, and from present
appearances it is more than prob-
able ttiat fully twenty-five hun-
dred strangers will be In our
midst during the greatest purl
of next week. The committees having
in charge the ways and means of the
convention are spariiiu; no pains to make
the event one long to be remembered in
the city. The finance committee have
already collected in the neighborhood
of $2,700, and there will beany amount
necessary forthcoming. Col. Young,
an old time cow man, estimates that
there will be in the neighborhood
of 1,800 cattlemen from this state pres-
ent and expects that Kansas City, Chi-
cago and St. Louis will send five or six
hundred more. Two car loads of vis-
itors from Chicago are expected to ar-
rive on Sunday. These will include cap-
italists of every species* railroad mug-
nates, merchants, bankers and shippers.

The convention will be called to order

day morning, and is expected
to remain in session for three days. On

quet will be given the visitors, and a

formed a like service at the

caterer and expects that the magnifi-
cence of his spread will cover him with
glory. Men were put to work scrubbing

closure will be converted Into a mini

AMUSEMENTS.
A Den of Thieves Operating in the Third
Ward.
Sporting circles In the city in general,
and the Third ward in particular, are in
a delightful state of excitement over a
srospective mill in which the victor in
:he last contest is supposed to cut a
prominent'figure. It is said that the
! English residents of the Third ward
have pooled their issues and made a pot
of $100 to back an "unknown" in an-
other scramble for the honors with John
Kearney. The Irishmen are jubilent
over the success of their champion, but
Kearhev accepts his honors with sang
froid, and promises to maintain them
against any non-professional middle-
weight in Texas. The sporting world
of the Third ward is now divided Into
two hostile camps, one being called the
"Micks" and the other the "Johnnies."
The former are the friends of Kearney,
and the latter were the backers of Bob
Gray. The Johnnies oomplain that
Gray was sick on the occasion of the
last light and taunt the others with
whipping a sick man. The Micks in
return tell them to trot out their best
healthy man and their man will treat him
likewise. Thus matters stand at pres-
ent, but it is certain that eflorts are be-
ing made to procure a man to .meet
Kearney. Several sporting men
were interviewed bv the Democrat
among others Dick Flanigsin, but all
steered shy'of publicity. Mr. Flanlgan
admitted that there was something in
prospective, but would give no details
concerning it. He said he understood
that a man named Billy Armstrong, of
Dallas, had been Invited by the "John-
nies" to come hither anil whip Kear-
ney, but whether he would accept the
Invitation could only be determined by
the future. The backers of Kearney
have a hundred dollars ready to risk on
their man, and are confident that he
will come out of the mill with flying
colors.
A New Hotel.
Mr. J. M. Peers, proprietor of the
present House of Peers, proposes to
commence the construction or a first-
class hotel Immediately. The new
structure will be on the site of the old
Peers house. One wing will be torn
down right away and as soon as a part
of the new building will be completed,
the rest of the old house will be demol-
ished, and the new building completed.
The new hotel will be of brick, three
stories high, 100x200 feet base. It will
contain 120 rooms, furnished and fitted
up In the latest and most progressive
style. It is expected that the new hotel
will be ready to receive guests about the
1st of September. It will cost from
$05,000 to #75,000.
To Contractors.
Bids will be received by me for the
building of a three-story brick hotel,
200 by 100 feet—ail outside* brick to come'
from Alvarado. Plans and specifications
can be seen at the "Hons* of Peers,"

2-8-3*
Fort Worth is a camping place for all
the "continental tourists" that "work"
the southern country. At the present
time the city is pretty well tilled with
these suspicious characters, and con-
stant thieving of more or less conse-
quence is the result. The
viuilence of ihe police keeps
them away fiom the center
of the city, and In consequence the
Third ward, in the vicinity or the depot,
is made their base of operations. Rail-
road cars are quite frequently burst
open, and contents rilled and demol-
ished, back kitchens are raided, hen
houses robbed, and every species of
plunder indulged in. Yesterday
evening some of the employes
of the railroad noticed a rather
suspicious looking character lying on
a blanket near tue freight depot plat-
form, and evidfiiitlv endeavoring to nide
something with his body concealed be-
neath the platform. The men ap-
proached and the man took to his heels.
Persuit was given, but in vain. He was
quick of foot and soon disappeared from
sight. On Investigation it was
found that he had u very nice nest of
plunder stowed away, including a good-
ly supply of whisky, brandy, cheese,
cruckers and other truck. All had been
stolen from a Missouri Pacific freight
car. It is evident that the watcher
was endeavoring to hold down
the swag until night when it
could be disposed of in the
most satisfactory way. The railroad
companies have been victimized beyond
patience by these vandals, and it is
about time something was done to rid
the city of their presence.

Tbe Katie Putnam Troupe, which
opens here on Monday evening in Lena,
the Madcap, is having a very prosperous
season. The well known powers of Miss
Putnam have always madeher an attrac-
tion, and on this occasion she is sup-
po ted by an excellent troupe. The Re-
publican, speaking of her appearance in
Washington, says:
Katie Putnam personated the charac-
ter of Little Nell and the Marchioness.
The pathetic features of the former were
admirably rendered, and the fantastic
und absurd conceits of the latter in her
grand banquet with Dick Swivelerkept
the audince in a continued roar. Miss
Putnam possesses, in a marked degree,
the versatility necessary to present
these diverse characters of the great
novelist in an acceptable manner, and
they are so widely known that her per-
sonation of them brought before the
audience the most familiar sccnes in that
great work. Katie Putnam is a thor-
ough artiste. In h^r songs and dances
she is eminently satisfactory and won
genuine applause. She enters truly and
heartily into the role, and brought be-
fore her hearers a realistic pictuie, as
true as it was beautiful.
Miss Putnam will play "Little Nell"
In the "Old Curiosity Shop" Tuesday
niglit.
The banquet and ball to be given to
the cattle men next Thursday night,
is the great expected eVent nt present
with the lovers of the terpsi chorean
art. The music will be the very best
obtainable, and everything will be car-
ried out on a grand scale.

It would bo wisor and easier to

The old notion that a higher ordor
of men would be chosen to '.he sen-

very thoroughly exploded within
the pa*t twonty j'ears. Possibly the
deterioration so noticeable in tho

legislative stupidity and corruption,

Colonel Carey W. Styles, Editor

not express my grateful feelings to
tho good people of Tarrant county

efforts for the people of my county,

people aro now as thoy have cv r

Judgo Jas.E. Shopherd, of Brenham,
Washington county. Mr. Frymier is
tho father of tho branch asylum
measure, and takes a great personal
and public interest in its proper lo
cation. Dr. Wallace was long the
loved and honored superintendent of
of tbe Austin asylum, and is a man
of skill and science in treating pa-
tients, and possossos proper sympa-
thy for the unfortunate insane of our
stato. Ho hardly has a peer in any
country, for ability and familiarity
with tho wants ot an institution of
tho kind. Judge Shepherd is a man
of unquestioned integrity and supe-
rior judgment. They aro all gen-
tlemen of noted ability and known
integrity. Just such men as will
satisfy tho people in tho location of
tho asylum. Fort Worth hus a fair
and equal chunce with all
points competing, and thero are
many 01 them. moro than

resentative in this niattor, and my
