A SIIAMK AMI A M'ISANCK.
If anybody citizen or stranger lias
heretofore wondered at the freucnt com
plaints ruado against the streets ami cross-
ings of this city after the experiences of the
past few days they will certainly appre
ciate our reasons and the motives actuating
us. We have had within the present week
only a couple of days ruin and light at
that but the results are such as ought not
to follow a southwestern "rainy seuson" in
a well cured for und properly attended to
city. From one end of the town lo
the other it is a perfect slush. Tools of
water stund in the principal
thoroughfares und on Main street
the street cur truck though raised a couple
of feet u few weeks ago from terminus t
terminus is completely hidden. The cross
ings on some of which ufeint of improve
me nt was made u short time since are lit-
lerally covered up and one must wudc in
from three to four inches of mud to get
from one sido of Muln '.or Kim and other
streets to the opposite) side. Added to
these inconveniences is a still greater one
and this is the fact thut passing vehicles
on any portion of the street spatter
the wuter und the slush over pedestrians
female as well ns male at a distance of
from ten to twenty feet. We have known
men and women to walk for four or six
blocks to get over Main street within the
past tw days with any decree of comfort
Or cleanliness. It is a fact us we learn it
that continued coinpluinls were urged
uirni list the Main street car line before the
City Council until finally the company
were compelled to raise their track the city
agreeing then lo so "jude the street through
out its extent Hint the rains would not
in future affect travel. The Car Company
did its work and apparently did it
well but it has never met with the assistance
promised from the city and to-day it would
actually require n stretch ol the imagination
to realize that itny labor hud hcc.ii expended
upon the Main street cur track for the past
two years. These are all disagreeable fact:
for us to admit as wo know their elici t upon
the outside world. The impression will go
abroad that Dallas is totally unlit to live in
hut it is not our fault. In the inter
terests of our people most of whom
urn our patrons we curuinl do otherwise
than continue to call attention to the ucccs
sily for improvements ami fix the blame
and negligence where it properly belongs.
There has been as everybody can see
"many things left undone that ought to
huvo been done" and if strangers receive a
bad impression of Dallas Irom this fuel wc
think those who have her prosperity
and fame ut heart the ones indeed who
have been selected lo lake full charge of
her affairs moral financial and physical
ought to bruin to correct abuses and
inaugurate improvements thai are

have repeatedly directed the. attention

should have been done and while
these have lailed lo heed wc
are gratified that we can announce a
healthier public sentiment on the subject

constantly in receipt ol comniiiiiicitioiis
and personal applications urging Us lo agi-
tate even more pointedly this subject of
street improvement and we have refrained
from a hope thai something would be done
but ns yet we have waited with ml recom-
pense. We now venture the predii lion i!at
"street improvement" such indeed as the
growing importance and population and
wealth of the cily demand could carry
Dallas by an overwhelming majority and
we trust some one will he shrewd enough
to see it. A number of Mayors of other
cities doing in (lie. premises what they

Madame Adcllna I'attl la mannglng to
have herv-ll pretty well advertlsod
tliMUgh the machinery of tho newspaper
"Interviewers" skillfully manipulated by
her experienced business agents. The
chief opportunity for this offered Itself In
Cincinnati at a recent oratorio performance
wbero ' '.iow.sI temper towards
tho lolllce of the "Musical Bo-
clity and ps'ally towards Mls
Cary. who was conducted to the stage be-
fore her and placed in a seat usually re-
served for the prima donna and towards
several others. Out ot these simple facts
long narratives have been constructed and
Madame I atti has put on the airsof an in-
jured insulted woman expecting all the
American public to sympathize with
tier. Whether or not she pets such sym-
pathy she gets a great amount or gratui-
tous'udvertising which will help her in her
future performances. Hut those who have
a true appreciation of high art and oi the
dignity that ought to be a distinguishing
trait ol every true art.st think thai .Mine
fatti lowers herself by resorting to such
vulgar expedients to bolster herself
up in the eyes of the public.
She Is old enough not only to
have lost the freshness and purity of her
voice but to know that she has lost them.
She is traveling on her youthful reputation
as: a pretty warbler and on that which
she gained years ago in Europe und she is
by no means the greatest singer or even
one of the greatest singers ever heard in
tho 1 niled States. 1'erliaps she knows
this or is beginning to discover it and
that is why she sings so few pieces and
confines herself to old ballads which arc
liked in Ibis country for their sentiments
but which are beneath the talent of truly
great singers. She is clever ns a financier.
and so long ns she can make a conplu of
thousand uoiiarsa night by singing two il
three ballads she is less to blame than her
hearers who arc willing to give so
much money for so little music. She
knows the Americun public and
she avails herself of the interviewers
that the good old fat her of the commune
bud observed with consternation that the
consumption of beer increuscd to a great
extent during tho forty days of the fast the
peasants indemnifying themselves for the
abstinence from llesh by extraordinary in-
dulgence in beer. The pastor rcplicd'tbat
he thought a moderate enjoyment of
beer was quite lawful. The ('resident of
fie Commune however was not satisfied.
A few days later he again went to bis
princely revcrenccand solemnly asked him
whether he could not make ah iniuiiy in
Koine ns to the legality tit tiic wholesale
drinking of "liaierisch" during Lent. The
clergyman gladly assented. "I received a
notification from the highest authorities"
be suvs "that no judgment could be given
on the beer iiiestion until the beer bud
been seen uml lusted.'' A small barrel of
the very best Ituvariun was sent from the
village to Ihe Klemal Citv. It was proba-
bly the very lirsl iiuvarian beer which
crossed "the threshold of the Apostle."
The decision came back from Homo without
delay. The wine drinking authorities in
the alican ruled that as much of this sin-
gular liquid might be drank during Lent as
a man could bring himself to drink. Xol
only so but it was even added that it might
be regarded ns a sort of penance when u
man drunk a large quantity of so bitter and
nauseous a concoction. Correspondence
