Oranges are very cheap in this market
now, hut when you step on the peel of
one and sit down suddenly on the cold and
unsympathetic side walk, you wish in your
soul that they were $27 apiece.
Did you ever watch the motionless mov-
ments of a pretty girl’s lips, when her

The big sewer is being repaired, whether
by the management of the huge hash foun-
dry or tho city, we are not informed, ll
the h-h-f. is paying for it, the el p. Regis-
ter will inform our anxious citizens in a
few days.
The Standard is prepared for almost
any kind of misrepresentation from the
inmates of the big hash foundry, but
square up and down lying was more than
was expected. In the future, however, it
will be prepared for even that.
“I call you darling,” she said, as she
leaned her head on his coat collar. “Show
your hand,” he returned, mechanically.
The young miss, not understanding his
answer, continued to poker head against
his chin, and he hove ace high of relief at
her unconsciousness of his mistake.
The Trinity Guards speak also of mak-
ing arrangements with the Selden Irwin
troupe to give them a benefit. Should
they conclude such an arrangement, due
notice will be given and the performance
take place on Tuesday, perhaps. We
think, however, that the boys would have
done better to have bought the house for
a stipulated sum, and then worked up
their own audience.
Is it’that Dallas is being deserted? Fif-
teen “vags” were hauled up before Mayor
Day yesterday morning, and they all hail-
ed from Dallas. They were fined $5 each,
and failing to ante, were lodged in the cal-
aboose. They will be allowed the privi-
lege of leaving town this morning, and in
case they don’t will all be put on the
streets to work. It these vags could be
made to wrork on the streets, they would
make themselves scarce.
A Weatherford street man when he
went home, was told by his wife that they
were out of butter, aud then he wanted to
know where in .thunder all the butter he
bought last week had gone. His wife said
that it had been eaten. “Eaten! That’s
the way things go in this house. They eat
butter just the same as if banks wasn’t
“busting’ all over the land, poor people
sufferin’ for bread, and butter 25 cents a
pound,” and then he went out in the
kitchen to look up some choice bits of
meat for a five dollar bull pup he had just
bought. The housekeepers of this land
must economize, or there will be more
bank failures in the land.
Heroic.
“I’ the olden time,” she who sucked
the poison from the wound of her sire,
King Arthur, was lauded for her heroism,
and her name handed down to posterity a
thousand years after her people had fled,
“like a derelict boarder, down the back al-
ley of time.” Now you hear men talk
of the scarcity of heroism, and prate of the
want of chivalry in these degenerate days,
when this same act is performed under
their very nose. Lately a Mrs. McPher-
son, of Dallas county, sucked the poison
from a rattle-snake bite of her husband,
but both of them, to-morrow, perhaps will
be forgot. But you see, what was a hero-
ic act in a queen is only a matter of small
note in a person in the “comon walks of
life,” and in these latter days.. We are
disposed, however, to give Mrs. McPher-
son credit for her unselfish devotion to her
husband, and though it may never be, her
name is as deserving to be recorded on the
scroll of heroic women, as was the queens
and countesses of old, or even Susan B.
Anthony, Joan of Arc, Caroline M.
Churchill or any of those antique heroins.
At any rate, she deserves as much
credit as her husband, who drank a quart
of whiskey, in order to save his life ! Ye
gods, what is it a man will not do, when
he is in a strait?
A Little Credulous.
We were somewhat dubious as regards
the little story recently published in the
Dallas Herald about the size of Fort Worth
rats, and have been trying to tone our
credulity down, to believing the Herald man
but just when success was about to crown
our efforts, there came a new obstacle in
shape of yesterday’s Herald, which con-
tained more big stories than we could well
digest. First, there was an express wagon,
load of lumber, yoke of oxen, pair of
horses, &c., &c., which mired down in the
street. That we took down without much
of a struggle, though the pill looked rather
large. Then came that big fish story,
which completely balked us, and when it
was followed with a “huge snake story,
mixed up with shot guns, saw-logs, and
topped off with a whole quart of whisky,
we ceased to have any confidence in the
Herald man. Now, we don’t believe that
rat tale, nor the miring business, nor the
fish story, nor the snakes, unless ye Her-
ald man had them in his boots, but we do
believe that he will have to carry a little
hatchet or drink better whisky, else he
has forfeited our confidence forever.
Seldin Irwin Troupe.
Mr. E. R. Tucker, agent for the Seldin
Irwin combination, was in the city yester-
day evening, and gave us a call. He has
been billing the city for the Intin troupe,
and has perfected arrangements for thein
to play in our city on Saturday eyening
and night, and Monday night.
This troupe is well known to our citi-
zens and needs no commendation. See
advertisement in another column.
New Scales.
A pair of new hay scales are being put
in position by Mr. R. E. Maddox, on the
public square, in place of the old ones just
removed. They are of the Fairbanks pat-
tern, improved, with a capacity of weigh-
ing ten tons, and will weigh the longest
coupled hay wagon, team and all, at the
same time. There will be no running the
wagon on the platform with the team
standing on the ground pulling the wagon
down and making correct weight
difficult to attain, but all will be weighed
at once.
Maddox Bro.’s New Buss Line.
The enterprising livery firm of Maddox
Bros, have purchased a handsome new trans-
fer buss, which will run regularly to and
from all the trains, will call for and take
passengers wherever desired. The vehicle is
of the latest improved manufacture and the
efforts of these gentlemen to fill [a vacancy
much needed and so long felt in this
city, should be remembered by the public
whenever the opportunity presents. Word
left at their livery stable, desiring the buss
to call anywhere in the city, will be prompt-
ly answered; 1-19-tf

Difficulty at the Court House.
A difficulty occurred last evening in the
court, house hall, between Mr. Flournoy,
of the Standard, and Mr. Sam Furman,
county attorney, about an article publish-
ed in yesterday’s Standard, at which Mr.
Furman took exceptions. Dr. Lacy, Mr,
Flournoy and Mr. Furman were standing
on the steps leading to the county court
room, talking about the article referred to.
Mr. Furmau walked off, remarking that
“the man who wrote the article was a
d—n liar.” Mr. Flournoy walked up to
him, taking him by the shoulder, te ling
him that he could not use such language
to him, and struck him in the face ; tTfight
ensued and Henry Furman, brother°of
Sam, took part, striking Flournoy from
behind. They were finally separated,
when the county attorney drew a pistol,
which was wrenched from his hands be-
fore he could use it, and handed to Sheriff
Henderson. Mr. Flournoy and Henry
Furman were arrested aud bound over to
appear before Justice McClung to-day.

Fire.
A slight fire occured last night at the
grocery house of W. Sft Rose & Go’s.,
caused by the shelving ignightiug from the
heat of the lamp. The alarm was given,-
to which the firemen Responded promptly,
but the flames were extinguished, without
their services being bought into requisi-
| tl0D- The engine was out and steam up
i in at least seveu minuetes^
“Rig-id—Unjust”
In regard to the article published in yes-
terday’s Standard under the above cap-
tion, we have these statements to make.
In the first place, we have said, and re-
assert, that the fact remains, offenders have
been fined twice for the same offense
mentioned, to-wit: carrying concealed
weapons. That it is the law, we admitted
at first, and do not deny now, but have
said and still contend, that it is an unjust
law. We have no explanation to make in
regard to the article, other than this :
The article in question alluded to A. W.
Crozier, who made the brag before the re-
porter and other witnesses, that he could
make fees each day by stayiug around the
mayor’s court and re-arresting these mal-
efactors.
We are sorry that some of our most estima-
ble officers took exceptions to the article, as
having reflected upon them, when it was
not so intended.
