Do you kill sheep and veal?

m't wish a UL'ht. but it will be tho
d story which lias been enacted down

Kill die hard but when they give up

When will you commence shipping

"If wo have no fet-bneks and the
railroads getourslull'lhrougk prompt-
ly we shall be running the latter part
of April. I want when wo commence
to have a big baibccue and blowout

cattle men and nil interested to attend
and see our works and method of busi-
ness. Now you may think this is
splurging. 1 "do it to stimulate the
raising of fat cattle by everybody who
enn buy a calf and that those who nt-
tend tho barbacue can see the process
and underatund it and hotter yet eat
tho moat and tee how superior it is to
meat .cooked right nfter killing. It
will also heln advertise Victoria and I
trust you will remember this matter
and keep 11 before tho public.
Who builds VoUr establishment?-
"We will build it ourselves from
plans and specifications got up by our
architect under my direction. The
JJoylu Ico machine Company furnish
the refrigerating and ico making ma-
chinery. Tho lumber cornea from
Heiuimont Texas thq I.ollnnco mill.
Tho tanks boilers littings tools etc.
wero purchased by me through our
agents in Chlcagp Messrs. Osgood A.
Gray. Our consulting engineers are
now preparing the ground and
foundations pens chutes drains and
roads. The Telfcrnor people are doing
all in their power to help us and will
nut the track down to tho works at once
I never saw olllcialH nibro ready and
willinir for business than they are and
cannot speaic in too high term cf
the courteous treatment J have re-
ceived from them and I certainly
shall do all in my power to furnish
business for their road which is not
appreciated by tho people hereabouts
as it should 'be but for them there
would have (men no slaughter home as
there would have been no railroad.' I
hope and pray they will start it for the
west so 1 can bring cittlo from every
point to tho slaughter house not
but what they can bo driven overland
ami will be but a hundred miles ride
won't hurt them and it will stimulate
small shipments and we can build up
stock yards. By the way you can say
our company will hare stock yards
oattlo horse and mulo pens in connec-
tion with our works and will shortly
establish n cattle market and exchange
for tho mle and purchase of all kinds
of live stock mules and horse. Two
years from now you will see a great
change down in that old cotton field
on the river bank by the bridge.

following opinion of Ijiinglry : "Her
throat is like driven snow her head
beautifully poised and when she
dances how girlish and pretty she is!
Her side face and slope of head is very
lovely and her teeth! But her full
face Is far from beautiful nnd some-
times plain. She lias no tender look
only a smile which is all but forced
at times and there is almost no piny
of expression no mobility of feu lure.
Compare her face to Kellson's!"

Tlie coinniercial week which closed
yesterday according to the GA.irrru's
chronology Iprescnlcd no extraordi-
nary phages in tlio Hiltialion of biiHi-
uehu an'ai rs ho far as Fort 'Worth in
concerned. The trade of tho previous
week wan steadily main
tained tlio only notable dif-
ference being a fll&ht improv-
nient in retail tralllc due chiefly to
the passable condition of the country
roailn and splendid genial weather
Tho wholcMilo business continues fair-
ly active but dealers leport somewhat
o'f a decline in the volume of biiMnej-s
as compared with the lorward move-
ment of goods In tlie few weeks lire-
ceding the holiday season. Collections
however aro easier than was expected
and tho ability of debtors to meet or
satisfy their obligations imparts a
reassuring tone to Uio immediate pros-
pects. A decline In prices of whole-
sale dry goods Is everywhere appar-
ent on account of the large supply of
cotton and the low price of the fume.
Tlie eflcct is even now visible
in this market. The grocery
market has undergone but fcwlhietua-
lions hams and breakfast bacon hav-
ing dropped a fraction as will bo seen
by the quotations under tlio appropri-
ate heading. Hiflness in tills line
holds up remarkably well and the nut-
look Is anything but unfavor-
able. Hut llttlo is doing in
wool and hide; this season of
tho year being the dullest in those
commodities. Our fpiotations are still
kept up fur the purpose of Indicating
the downward tendency of tho Kant-
cm market with which tho local one
never rails lo net In sympathy. Tariff
dbcussion has had Its visible cllccts
and tlr.ro is no divining accu-
rately what the stntiH will bo
lieneeionvaru. i no suppiy u uuu ui-
inand for grain is po small that the
nriccM arc Boincwhat unsettled. Occa
sionally farmer bilng hi their surplus :
stock oi corn ami oats ami convert it
into cash. Tliero is always an easy
market for audi produce i i Fort
Worth ami tho last named coinninmlB
a fair price. Fair weather and
improved roads lmvo stimulated the
movement of cotton from tho gins flnd
storers aro anticipating an Increased
biihincss in conscipionce. Tho prices
seemed to have fctruek tho bed rock
and may icmain comparatively uta-
tlonary for somo time Tho meanest
grades aro being inaikcted
Tho proluco supply is mlly
emilralcnt to tho demand. Our
meat stalls hang with wild game.
