From 1'addy Ryan's conduct and testi-
mony la the J hue Dunn trial he seems to
be as great a failure as a witness as he was
as a bruiser when he stood up before Sci.i.i-
tan. NotwithBtonding Paddy's extraordi

It would have been something rcmnrk-

llisjourl Iowa and Kansas had paused
through this season ol the year without a

iu keeping with the fury and extent of Its

that region to cyclonic Influences will al

Tit Dunn trial in Ch'cogo is bringing
the names of a choice lot of Immunity into

most exclusively saloonlsts gamblers

Tht great fettiTal in progress in this city
this week has a greater significance thau
men present enjoyment and tha occuiou
for the display of enterprise growth end
wealth. The aame U true or the assembling
o the l'ress Association which contenes iu
Dallas to-day it embraces and signifies

clal line of labor. In eastern and other cities
and centers occasions like tbe present one
with us have been common occurrences for
niiny years. With us ol Hie soum anu
pjciully Teas ttiey are of comparatively
receut date. Hardly a town of any siie or
Onsequence wnatever in me east. u..u-

order as a whole their value in the general
education of the citizenship at large ol a
place can begin to bo estimated aud appre
ciated. For instance and the sake ol illus
tration it may be supposed that Dallas
haa never bad an opportunity to hear the
higher and finer music rendered by accom-
plished artists. Tlio State 6tri)i;erfist is
hld in our midst being a gatnering ol the
bost musical talent of the state both vocul
and instrumental and rendering during
its sessions the better character of
music In grand stylo. The result and ad
V mtuges aro ut once apparent. A people
by supposition who hud been listening bin
to echoes before rise at once to the con
cup lion and knowledge of the leal beauty
ami grandeur of the original. A meeting
in a word such as this.hecoiiiesun educator
of the people. A Ktato Press Association
nuots in our miilai. In a day our popu'ar
tion wealth progress are Unshed by li e
wires transmitting tlio work of two hun
dred pens over the state and country.
What hud been before u matter of hearsay
and faint conj xturo becomes knowledge
and Dallas and her fume mid iichievemeiith
get out into the great world. Indeed the
advantages of grand reunions uru patent lu
any one who will give the mutter
an instant's thought. Now it
is jiibt this progress Just these
bvn-li ta and advantages that eastern
northern and mlddlu states' cities both
large and Binall have been for long yeais
past enjoying end Unit our southern cities
have not bud. It isa source of satisfaction
and congratulation thereforo aside from
the present pleasure and prollt of tuo occa
sion that wo are now beginning to enicy
these festivals and reunions on as great a
scule und as frequently as they havo betn
miown In other sections. The greatsigmli-
cance attached to them is that they indi-
Cttt0 progress and disclose the met Unit the
march of cosmopolitan Ideas is over-riding
tocul limits und prejudices uud taking pos-
session ol the Hold. Dallas has done moie
Ibis week towards throwing usldo her local
characteristics and reaching out after tbe
metropolitan in manner idea and reputa-
tion thou she bus hcrotufuro done in
a'iy live years of her existence.
It is this groat fact Unit is back of ami
above all considerations of prosunt pleusurt
prollt. or good. Hut-Dallas in thus assum
ing a prominent position before the work'
in thus allignlng herself in tlio rush uud
noise of the progress of events is not alone
among southern cities. The same uwuken-
mg the sumo character ol lestivuls and re-
unions und entertainments that educate
and advertise while they remunerate und
scatter pleasure and good feeling in a mul
titude ol ways are taking place nil over the
south in nearly all Its cities with a popiilc-
tion of 10000 and upwards from Maryland
to our Uio Grande border. It is one of the
most pleasant features to contemplnto In
the presentation of the New South to the
world. Blngiug festivals prize drills press
associations art lishery uud industrial ex
positions are tlio order of the day .bringing
localities into protninenco and edu-
cating and liberalizing thoir citizens
that before were merely known
to tlio student as places on tho map and
over which a Kip Van Winkle slumber
long since settled. Dallas therefore In her
present gavcty and evidence ol life and
progress Is but one of a class a represent-
tlvo ol those new and energetic and promi
lag young population and wealth centres
in the New South from which so much
may bo expeuted In the near future when
they shall havo become as conspicuous as
their Intelligence vim aud possibilities on
title them to become.
Tins is sensible talk by tho Bail Fran
c'sco Chronicle; "The war department is
vory anxious to demonstrate that Crook
crossod the border on bis own responsibil
ity. We do not doubt that tho iudlun
lighter will be able to shoulder the respon
sibility and to settle things with tho Mex
icans. A little less red tape on the border
and a little more mutual confidence would
go a great way toward putting nn end to
the suspicious attitude ol the two nations.
The man who lays in a bona lido Damon
and Pythias role nowadays li certainly
hero in tho best use of that term. Coldness
and solllshness are so universally the rule
that to llnda man who Is willing to sutler
deprivation and disgrace for one no nearer
than a brother is to find a raro specimen o
Immunity Indeed. Governor Ulackiichn
bus Just pardoned from the penitentiary of
Kentucky a man who took upon hit own
shoulders a brother's crime and lias been
for several years serving out the penalty o
the law. It Is one of the most remarkable
cases of the time.

Then Poncignon ami the baron with the
full authority of the mother organized a
capturing party such as was frequent in
old times in Ireland to take possession
ot Mile. Olga and carry her bodily
away from the seductive Signnurel Five

the project aud when they got to Mar-
seilles Olga was out of the way. Mine

the landlord of Signoiirel and Olga. Olga
had married Signoiirel but the marriage
will probably be disputed for wont of ma-
ternul consent. Meanwhile Huron d'Ar-
berat and Poncignon are sentenced to a
month's Imprisonment for their attempt
to carry of Mile. Olga and their two princi-
pal auxiliaries to twenty and fifteen days

Last night our reporter was standina- on

up. He had wi itten up all bis points ai d
he was anxious to get enough for another
column n hile be was standing there he
saw go up from the corner of Main and
Poydrma streets Irom tbe niiiat of
large crowd a baiioin. It went
up very rapidly and was as
beautiful a sight being carried aloft
by heated air from a spongi of burn-
ing kerosene as ever was seeu. It arose
about a thousand feet as near as could be
estimated in less than a minute and then
striking a western current went rin
westward and remr.ined iu sight fully half
an hour growing smaller and smaller by
degrees until it hually laded from view en-
tirely. It was exnected that it would burst
every minute but il did not as long as it re-
mained in sight.
Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe.
The fact that the Gulf Colorado and San-
ta Fe road bas cut off ihe regular paeseng
trains running between this city and Gal
veston and putting on a bobtail train which
has no direct communication with Galves-
ton haa been the cause ot much comment
and tome ill feeling towards the line on
the part of our business men who think to
say the least that it was notChesterlieldian
to so unceremoniously snatch away from
a business aud traveling public ac-
comodations without the slightest
warniug. In fact the representatives of
the road here are mute upon the subject
and the rumor that Gould has succeeded
in getting control ol the Hue has gained
credence here. The business men of Dal-
las will not recognize a bobtail train run-
ning lu ou a span Irom the main line.
