BY MAHKIN * I
* TUBS OAT, JULY • ■ - 10, 1888.
Paris, Texas, now has a cUily
paper, the Press.
The Galveston Opera Glass
now gives its readers a patent
supplement.
J. D. Baldwin, senior editor
and proprietor of the Worces-
ter, Mass.. Spy is dead.
If the Houston Post, under
its new management, does not
make a complete success, it will
not be lor want of advice from
the interior press.
The Austin reporter of the
News curtly remarks that it
requires very serious trouble to
induce anybody at Austin, in a
public office, to resign.
According to the Bclton
Journal the Santa Fc railroad
has determined to build a track
into town, and negotiations arc
now pending for right of way.
A precedent has been set.
It is dangerous to monkey with
the truth. The grand jury at
Austin indicted a man because
he would not tell them the
truth.
It is claimed at Dallas that
Gould is partial to Fort Worth
and that he took the Tennessee
editors there and also a party
of railroad capitalists without
showing them Dallas.
The Tennessee editorial ex-
cursion went as far as Laredo,
where some of tlicm crpssed
over to New Laredo and bet
money on chicken fights. Their
judgment was good and they
won.
The F jrt Worth Gazette is
not yet a year old and has, so
it says, a circulation of over
five thousand copies. It is a
good paper and among other
things it understands "whoop-
ing" itself up.
By a decision of Postmaster
General Gresham,the Louisiana
State Lottery under the man-
agement of M. A. Eauphin, is
now denied the use of the mails
and no money orders payable
to him will be paid.
- -
Archbishop Purceli,, of Ohio,
died a few days ago. A lew
years ago the country was star-
tled by the report that Purceli
was defaulter to the aniojnt of
a million or two, he having
used trust funds in his posses-
sion.
According to the Seguin
Times only those who have
been disappointed in getting
office under Cov. Ireland have
attacked his administration, and
it concludes by giving Tom
Bowers, of the Panola Watch-
man a rap over the knuckles.
The campaign in Ohio was
opened on Saturday last at
Hamilton by a speech by Judge
Hoadley, the democratic candi-
date. He handled the republi-
can platform without gloves
showing all its weak points in
the most glaring colors.
Three thieves went into a
savings bank at Belleville, III,
on Saturday and while the at-
tention of the cashier was dis-
tracted one of tham managed
to secure a package containing
|F454 and make his escape.
The entire gang are supposed
to have struck out for St. Louis.
A postoffice inspector is
now in San Antonio presumed-
ly to investigate the interior
wofking ol the postoffice at that
place. Great dissatisfaction is
said to exist. Newcomb is
postmaster and a strong effort
to oust him will undoubtedly
be made.
Galveston News of Sun-
day contains a lengthy editorial
under the caption of "Labor
and Honesty." The drift of
the article is, that there are too
many clerks and far too few me-
chanics. It citcs a case where-
in a New York clerk who was
working for the princely salary
of $6 a week found it necessary
to rob his employee in order to
make a living ; in a few months
he robbed them of JS3000 worth
of goods and spent most of the
proceeds driving fast horses.
Not long since there were six
cleikships vacant in the New
York custom house; there were
over 300 applicants; of these,
137 passed the necessary exam-
ination, and thus 131 qualifi-
ed men were turned away.
Throughout the entire country
there are probably five appli-
cants for every vacant clerk-
ship, this can only be accounted
lor on the hypothesis that the
applicants for clerkships must
think that the business of clerk-
ing is much more genteel or
respectable than that of a me-
chanic, but there is a great diff-
erence between the wages paid
mechanics and clerks. In New
York salesmen in stores receive
from $7 to $\2 per week, while
mechanics receive not less than
$2 per day and from that up
to J5$ per day and perhaps more.
Clerks aic liable to be thrown
out of employment at any time,
while throughout the entire
country there is a demand for
mechanics. The apprentice
system seems to be well nigh
abolished and there is more
jack-leg mechanics throughout
the country than thorough
workmen. There are a great
many young men in all parts of
the country who have yet plen-
ty of time to learn trades and
become perfectly independent
if they so elect; or they go to
clerking for small wages and
eke out a miserable and but
semi-respectable existence.
The Fort Worth Gazette of
Sunday publishes a long special
from St. Louis purporting to
give the particulars of the duel
between Knox, of the Siftings,
and Sheahan the sculptor, of
New York, and immediately
under it it publishes an associ-
ated press dispatch denying
that there was any duel at all.
^ ...
The Fort Worth Gazette
says that Rutabaga Johnson, ol
Collin county, will stump his
section of the state in opposi
tion to the constitutional amend
ments. The Gazette remarks
that Johnson may be a blessing
in disguise, but he wouldn't be
if he knew it. Johnson oppos-
es every progressive movement
It begins to look as though
property was reaching a fictici-
ous value in San Antonio. It
is stated that $60,000 was re-
fused for a lot 50x100 feet in a
desirable business location.
One thousand dollars a Iront
foot is considered a high price
for property in much more pre-
tentious cities than San An-
tonio.
Miss Vax Lew, of Richmond
Va., who was postmistress
there during Grant's reign, has
been appointed to a first-class
clerkship in the postoffice de
partmcnt by the postmaster
general. Miss Van Lew's ser
vices during the war in behalf
of the union cause and in aid of
the union soldiers in Libby
prison gave her some promi^
nence.

has a new brass
The Rabbi Schuhl scandal at
Dallas has caused a split in the
Emanuel congregation; the
minority or those arc opposed to
Schuhl have bent in letters of
withdrawal accompanied by
their dues for July and August.
The minority, twenty-nine in
number, will form a new congre-
gation and they are among the
wealthiest in the Jewish popula-
tion of Dallas.
The British parliament has
refused to pass the act permit-
ting a man to marry his deceas-
ed wife's sister. The only rea-
son existing in England arises
from the relatives of church
and state. The question was
an ecclesiastical one, and it was
the influence of the clergy that
defeated the bill.
The first-bale season has
been auspiciously opened,
Houston has the honor of re-
ceiving it. It was shipped by
Mrs. Hausmann, ol Mcyers-
ville, DeWitt county, and was
consigned to T. W. House.
The bale was made up of the
first pickings of the neighbor-
hood. Mrs. Hausmann has
shipped the first bale eight out
of eleven years.
— Bellville is in need of side-
walks, says the Times.
— Goliad has free water
troughs at the courthouse.
—Maj. Penn made seventy-
four converts at Hempstead.
— Tht water works at Co-
lumbus arc an assured fact—
work has been commenced.
— Cotton worms have made
their appearance in the vicinity
of Sempronius, says the Bell-
ville Times.
—The Temple Times pub-
lishes twelve reasons why the
county seat should be removed
to Temple.
— The San Antonio police
court is a paying institution.
Last week 5456 was collected
for fines.
— During the past three
months 45,000 head of cattle
were shipped from Millheim to
Wichita Falls.
—Fat Alley is a disreputable
negro quarter in Galveston and
the city council ij to be asked
to abolish the nuisance.
—According to the Temple
Times the people of Killeen and
that portion of Bell want to or-
ganize a new countv.
—Giddings, by a vote of 63
to 3, will be incorporated lor
school purposes. An election
for trustees will be next in or-
der.
—The county court of Bell
had eighteen convictions at the
July term. The prisoners in
the Belton jail escaped on Fri-
day.
—Temple talks of erecting
water works at a cost of $22,-
000. How to raise the money
to pay for them is the next
question.
— A negro boy was thrown
from a horse near Walker's
Station, and his foot catching
in a rope he was dragged some
distance and killed.
—At Columbus last week a
negro woman made a brutal as
sault upon a white lady beating
her severely. The trouble grew
out of the use of a well on the
premises occupied by the white
woman.
—The other day there was a
serious shooting affray at Sun-
set, in Wise county, resulting in
the mortal wounding of a man
named Sam Hunter. A num-
ber of shots were fired.
— W. E. Crump, Jr., a Bra
zos bottom planter informs the
Bellville Times that corn and
cotton in the bottom were
never better. Cotton is waist
high and literally loaded down
with grown bolls and squares.
—A hungry cuss went into a
San Antonio hotel and ordered
a huge dinner, the best on the
bill of fare. When asked to
pay for it he said he had no
money; he then raised a row
and was put in jail where he
will get more free board, but the
quality of it will hardly be as
good as that at the hotel.
— A few days ago a negro
living on a plantation near
Hempstead shot another negro
and then came to town and
made a complaint against him,
and had him arrested and jail
ed. A party who happened to
see the shooting had the man
shot at set free and a warrant
issued for the shootist.
—Governor Ireland pardon
ed A J. Beeson whose term of
imprisonment expired several
years ago. The pardon was
granted at the instance of the
State's attorney in Tarrant
county, who desires to use
Beeson as a witness for the
state, the pardon enables him
to testify and restores him to
citizenship.
—The Galveston News is
again agitating the subjett of a
new bridge across the bay. The
present railroad bridges are
maintained at a cost of $20,000
a year to the two railway com-
panies using them, and in addi-
tion have to be renewed every
nine years. The News suggests
that a permanent railroad and
wagon bridge is what should be
built and it thinks the railroad
companies would be more than
willing to help build such a
structure.
The Sherman Courier criti-
cised severely an amateur min-
strel performance given at Paris,
and the Press man gives the
Courier a lift for its severity
The fact is the Courier could
not be half severe enough on
the average amatuer perfor-
mance. The Courier says its
opinions are not for sale and
that it will report performances
on their merits solely.

ELECTRIC
Ant Exterminator.
Warranted to do just what tha name indi-
catesjvhen the directions are followed.
This compound is orfe of the cheapest
and most effective modes of completely
annihilating the Ant Colonies of Texas
that has ever yet been discovered. The
manner of applying and actual labor ex-
pended (as will be seen by the directions)
is so simple and light, that every one who
is troubled with these ravages can, at a
comparatively small cost, be rid of them,
thereby saving annually hundreds of dol-
lars to many farmers,gardeners and florists,
to say nothing of the great relief and com;
fort it would bring lo the many mothers to
know that tlieir little darlings were free

For Red or Stinging Ants one 24 ounee
bottle is sufficient to destroy half a do/,en
