THE WABA8H LINE.
The Line to Take in Goin^ to tin World's
Fair.
Little Rock (Ark.) Democrat.
A very large proportion of the
visitors from Arkansas to the
World's Columbian Exposition will
go via St. Louis. The question at
St. Louis will be: "What line must
I take to Chicago ?" II the traveler
wants a high grade of service—
speed, safety, comfort, convenience
--every luxury in tact that a modern
railroad affords, he can not do so
well as to take the Wabash.; If a
traveler wants a palace car, he can-
not find one more beautiful ami luxu-
rous than those of the Wabash line.
At the same the chair cars, and, in
fact, all other passenger cars in use
en this line, are of the best quality
with all modern improvements and
conveniences. . One great advantage
in going to Chicago by the Wabash
is that you are landed in the heart of
the city* the Dearborn station, being
within from three to; five blocks of
the leading hotels and public build-
ings of the city. Those who want
full information ot this line and its
advantages will do well to send for
the new and attractive Wabash fold-
er, "A Few Facts for Visitors to the
Columbian Exposition." This con-
tains much valuable information, not
only about the road, but what it will
cost to visit the fair, the leading ho-
tels, how to reach the Exposition
grounds, general hints, etc. General
Passeneer Agent, F. Chandler, St.
Louts, Mo., will respond to ail in-
quiries.
JOB FfUWTUG.
The Gazetteer has the most
complete job office in North Texas,
nd is prepared to turn out work of
ail kinds, from a iady's visiting card
to a three sheet poster, promptly
and in artistic style. The prices of

The readers of the Gazetteer
should not lose sight of the fact that
Williams & Holt, at No. 405 Main
street, are the market men who con-
fine their sales of meat to cash cus-
tomers. This is the reason why
they sell the best meats at lower
prices than other dealers. So, if
you have the cash, go and give them
a trial order and see if it will not
pay you to become a regular custom-
er. Buf if you want your meat on a
credit you might as well stay away.

Mr. James Barker, the new general pas-
senger and ticket agent of the Missouri,
Kanas Si Texiui, was inducted into office
last Friday. On Saturday in St. Louis
there was a delightful spread given at
Faust's by Capt. A; Faulkner compli-
mentary to Mr. Barker. The affair was
a most delightful one, the spread being
elegant and sociability being the order of
the occasion. Nearly all the general pas-
senger men in St. Louis were present
and were Introduced to Mr. Barker, Capt.
Faulkner doing the honors. It Is under-
stood thkt Mr. Faulkner will retire trom
railway service altogether and will ^ take
lite easy pn his big ranch down in South
Texas. Mr. Barker ' takes hold of the
•Kat\ passenger business at an auspicious
eason—that of the summer excursions,
and, also, that of the great World's fr'air.
One ot his first official acts was to issue
an order cutting down the rates from
Texas points into Chicago.
The Katy's World's Fair flyer, which
made its initial trip Sunday, made re-
markable time. The registered speed at
times indicated fifty-five miles an hour.
General Passenger Agent Hughes and
Supl. J. W. Maxwell came up on the
train from Houston. Their car, No. 26,
was cut off here and the train pulled out
for the north on time. This train *tops
only at the following points in Texas:
Houston, Letitia, Brookshire, Sealy, Cat
Spring, New Ulm, Fayetteville, La-
Orange, West Point, Smithville, Bastrop,
Elgin, Taylor, l'emple, Waco, Hillsboro,
Waxahachie,^Dallas, Greenville and Den-
ison. Only "A"' annual passes are good
on the train. "A" passes are .'those
issued in exchange of courtesies with
Other roads.
The Railway Age is responsible for the
statement that there is more railway un-
der coilrse of construction in Texas than
in all the other southern states combined.
The people of Hur.tsville are very de-
sirous of having the state extend the tim-
ber road from the penitentiary on down
through the pinev woods to Montgomery,
in Montgomery county, on the eastern
branch ot the Santa t-e. Four or five
miles of the state road is in use and the
extension would penetrate magnificent
pine forests.
Engine No. 61 was occupying a stall in
the round house Wednesday and by some
meant, no one seems to know how, as no
one was in the cab, it backed out and
down into the turn-table pit. The tender
was badly wrecked and the table was ren
dered useless tor tKfee or tour hours.
Tuesday night on a siding ai C >lbert
Station a caboose and two or three
freight cars were derailed. The loss was
not serious ana no person was injured

A number of south-end engines were
sent north and a number from the nor'th
were sent south Wednesday pending ,the
obstruction at the turn table.
;The Ka'v during the past two or three
months has added largely to its passen
ger rolling stock in Texas,
Greenville is becoming very much an
noyed at the continued delay ot the Mis
souri, Kansas Si Texas railway in build
ing a new passenger depot in that city
In a recent issue the Greenville Banner
says: Nobody has as yet predicted it,
but it is not in the category ot the thing
impossible that the Ruler of the Universe
will not some day destroy the city of
Greenville tor allowing the "Katy" to
use the eastern wing ot Noal.'s ark for
passenger depot, at this point. Even
railroad :■ corpora"ions should not be al
lowed to tamper with the welfare of the
town.
Engine. .377* which was in the wreck of
the Flyer at Caddo Monday evening, is in

George W. Howels and Edward Tib-
betts, who were convicted of violating
the interstate commerce law, have been
pardoned by President Cleveland. Their
crime was that of inducing a weighing

If the'present time card, with its multi-
tude of passenger trains, continues long
force the railwav company will be
ferced to make a radical change in hand-
ling the business and the trains in this
city. The y rd and track facilities are
not at all adequate to the demands.
Trains are held in the yard often from
ten to forty minuter, simply from the
fact that no opportunity Is afforded to get
out. The cost and unavoidable delays
attendant upon the cramped and limited
trackage and yard facilities here will soon
work its way into the notice of the man-
agement ot the companv, and the indica-
tions are that the great yards west of the
city were not begun any too soon. The
yards near the passenger depot would
make a splendid passenger station, pro-
vided it is enclosed and covered with an
enormous shed.

Charles Ricou, well known In Denison^
has been given the position ot local bag-

Tuesday morning Engineer Shaw and
his fireman on Central engine No. 17,
pulling the Dallas News train, experi-
enqed a thrilling adventure at the Mun-
son street crossing in this city, the place
at which John Carlat was killed a few
months since. The train was coming
into town on time as usual and making
good speed. A negro woman was seen
on tfTFcrossing facing north. The whistle
and tpe bell were sounded but to no pur-
Chtcagci (fotn the southwest.
'The Texas Ai Pacific will reap a rich
harvest from the excursions into Birmr
Ingham. The indication Is that the road
will be taxed to its utmost capacity' to
handle the business.
The Central pay car came jn Thursday
morning and after issuing checks to the
force in Denison returned south. The
car remained in Denison about an hour.
Chief Clerk McCarthy, working for
Supt L. Welsh, of the Parsons division,
M., K. & T., fell trom the inspection car
Thuradav morning at a point near Cho-
teau, I. T., second station north of War-
ner, and was instantly killed. The car
left Denison early Wednesday morning.
Wednesday night was spent at Muskogee
and Thursday morning the party, con-
sisting ot Cary A. Wilson, chief engi-
neer; Supt. Wesh and Mr. McCarthy,
chief clerk for Mrf Wesh, left for the
north. Good time was being made and
the chief clerk was engaged in taking
notes at the time of the accident. The
car passed a track walker when Mr. Mc-
Carthy stood up and turned to look back
to see who the party was when he lost his
r footing and falling forward betvween the
| tracks was almost instantly killefj. The
body was picked up and carried on to
Choteau, where it remained until the ar-
rival ot No. 4, when it was forwarded to
Parsons for interment.
A. C. Hildebrant and family left on
train No. 2 Thursday afternoon for To-
peka, Kas Mr. Hildebrant has a 30-day
leave ot absence and the time will be im-
proved by visiting relatives and friends in
the north.
' \
Wednesday night south-bound train
No. 3, on the Missouit, Kansas & Texas,
was shot into at a point ^bout one mile
south ot istringtown, I. T. A great many
people are confident that an attempt was
made bv a band of robbers to hold up the
train. This view of the matter, however,
is certainly erroneous as the engineer nor
his fireman saw any signals tor the train
to stop. The probability is that the shots
fi.ed, five in number, were by a drunken
man with no thought of robbery. The
Gazetteer reporter called on Conductor
Morris, who had charge ot the train,
Thursday and, in substance, he said: "I
know nothing of an attempted robbery,
last night, neither does any one else who
was on my train. We picked up Harry
Platter, and a man whom:! did not know,
at Stringtown and I was taking up tickets
when the shots were fiijed. We were, I
suppose, a mile or so south of String-
town. Five shots were fired from the
west side of the train. One of the balls
entered a window near where: I was
standing and went up intti the ceiling.
We did not stop. The engineer states
that he saw nothing that looked suspici-
ous, no lights, no signals nor nothing on
the track." If an attempt was made to
hold up the train the attempt was made
by green -hands at the business and their
methods will have to be radically changed
and greatly improved before siftcess is
accomplished. Only onje of the five
shots hit the coach, and ?hat, as stated,
entered a window and lodged in the
ceiling.
Enormous quantities ot empty cattle
cars are passing south over the Katy.
The New Orleans Picayune says: The
Southern Pacific railroad has been haul-
ing watermelons into the city in great
numbers for the last two or three days.
A carload ot them come in every day
from Southern Texas. Many of them
are sold here, but the larger number of
them are shipped to tfie World's Fair
folks and to northern cities.
In Minnesota it is laid down by the su-
preme court that a ra/lroad is not bound
to accept as a passenger on its cars, with-
out an attendant, one who, because ot
physical or mental disability, is unable to
take care of himself; but, it voluntarily
accept auch a person without an attend-
ant, his inability to take fare tor him-
self, rendering special ca/e and assist-
ance necessary, being apparent or made
known at the time to its servants, the
company is negligent if such care and
assistance are notatlordcd.
At Fort Scott, Kan., Wm. Collins,
chief clerk in the office ot Division. Road-
master C. B. I'ombs and James McDon-
ough, of the Missouri Pacific system, was
arrested by a company detective, T. A.
Ling, of St. Louis, charged with an ex-
tensive and systematic robbery of the
company's moneys through his office as
timekeeper.. It is charged that he has
for an indefinite period been defrauding
the company by sending in the time and
board bills of fictitious section men; that
he would alter the board bills, which are
kept separate from the labor checks in
order U> protect the boarding-house keep-
ers aud have merchants to whom he was
indebted or accomplices go and draw the
money on them.
The Missouri Pacific railway company's
pose, i The train was under control and
just tfcfore striking the woman it was
brought to a stop. The fireman sprang
out, ran ahead and catching hold ot the
woman's shoulder faced her about. She
saw the engine only a tew feet away and
a more frightened darky has never been
seen in these parts. She leaped from
the tracks with the agility ot a grey
hound and did not stop until she was
clear off thejight of way. She was deaf.

There is a good deal of kicking being
done by those who luxuriate in carriages
because of the new city law requiring
them to pay a small lax, the proceeds to
go toward street Improvements, but we
have never heard any of these individ
uals complaining that the law is unjust
which, for years, has compelled non
property owners, who have no carriages
to pay an annual street poll tax of $2, or
work it out on the public thoroughfares
which they never use. Good streets are
a very Important desideratum, and if
special tax Is to be levied for their con
struction and maintenance it would seem
to be perfectly fair to levy the tax upon
those who use them.

Commencement exercises, attend-
ant upon the annual cloaing of St.
Xavier academy, were held on Mon-
day and Tuesday evenings of this
week at the academy building, on
Sears street. As has been the cus-
to m of this school for many yean
the programs were rendered in the
east wing of the building, the stage
and curtains being at the east end of
the wing. While the room is large,
probably the largest singlei educa-
tional room in the citv, itjs not at
all adequate for such events as those
Monday and Tuesday evenings. The
time has certainly arrived when the
Sisters will have to do one of two
things—limit the attendance or se-
cure more commodious quarters.
Aside, however, from the annoyance
of an over-crowded hall the com-
mencement was all that the most
zealous supporters of the school
could reasonably desire. Monday
evening's program was given over
to the smaller children and that of
Tuesday to the graduates and the
students in the higher grades. Each
evening the exercises began at 8
o'clock, but long before that hour
eyery seat and all the standing room
in the hall was occupied.
The stage and fixtures were en-
tirely in harmony with the occasion,
and the recitations, dialogues, songs,
etc., were produced under most
favorable surroundings.
Monday evening's programme,
which was very creditably rendered,
was as follows:
Opening hymn, Star of the Sea,
by fifty or more voices, two young
ladies playing the occompaniinent
on pianos plsced on opposite sides
of the stage, was very pretty and
showed careful study.
The Salutatories, Misses Seiler
and Crutchfield. The entire school
were on the stage to welcome the
parents and friends. The voung
ladies spoke in clear and distinct
voices welcomes to the closing exer-
cises.
A vocal solo, Beautiful Blue Dan-
ube, trom Strauss, by Miss Eugenie
Chiles. Miss Chiles gives promise
of great vocal power and the piece
was well received.
A Bevy ot I's, by a dozen little
tots, was very nice, and each little
girl did her part well.
The vocal duet, Ave Maris Stella,
from Meninger, by Misses E. Reil-
ly aild L. Lee, was very pretty, and
both young ladies have voices ot rare
sweetness.
I
Minims' Recitation, Columbus,
represented by eight little girls in
costume with sashes, on which was
a gold letter, the letters spelling the
word Columbus as each little girl
took her place on the stage, at the
same time reciting a few words relat-
ing to the discovery of America by
Columbus.
• Overture, Poet and Peasant, from
F. Von Suppe, by Misses Byrd,
Ward, Carlat, Lee and C. Sansoni.
This was well rendered ; two young
Jadies at each piano, and one at the
organ in the center of the stage.
The piece was quite a difficult one
and was played in perfect time.
Then came the little ones again in
juvenile chorus, Chiding for Mam-
mas. This was very nice and loudly
applauded as eaph little one told
what she would do and how nice she
would be if she were mamma and
mamma were she. One little girl
would let h^r mother wear her best
dress every day and would not scold
frown if she should tear it as
or
dresses will tear; another would
take her mother with her everywhere
she went, and would say, *'You can
have anything you wish, my dear;"
while still another would let her
mother have a party every single day.
When each had told what she would
do, all repeated in concert, "Of
course, we can't be mamma, nor
mamma can't be us, but wouldn't it
be nice for them to treat us just this
way?"
Cavatina, 'Twas No Vision^
from Verdi, by Miss Howe, was
good, and her clear voice gave evi-
dence of careful cultivation.
Infiamatus, (To Thy Holy Care)
from Rossini's Stabat Mater, by the
vocal class. This piece was well
rendered and, as before, the accom-
paniment was played by two young
ladies at different pianos, as, in fact,
were all the accompaniments.
An essay, Pictures of Memory,
by Miss C. Foley, was very credit-
able. Miss Foley, in speaking of
the different pictures on memory's
wall, says, truly, that our school
days are the brightest of all.
Columbia, America's great march,
song and chorus, by the school.
This, of course, was appropriate to
the year 1893.
It was followed by the hoop drill
by fourteen little ones, all under ten
years of age, captained by Miss Eu-
nice Peck, who gave her commands
in' a clear, concise voice. All were
dressed in red skirts and white waists
with red caps, on the crowns of
which were five-pointed, white stars.
The hoops were wound with red and
white ribbon, large bows being tied
to one side. When the command
was given to fire, each little girl
threw a kiss through her hoop
to the audience. Many of the ma-
neuvers would have been quite diffi-
cult for older heads. This drill was
very interesting. -
This was followed by an over-
ture, Fra Diavola, from Caerni, by
three young ladies at one piano,
showing considerable musical abil-
ity.
Love of Home, from Minims'
Recitation, by the smallest ones,
told how everything, kittens, squir-
rels and field mice, each love their
homes.

The location was supposed to be
the court of England where had
assembled the representative powers
of Europe to discuss the feasibility
of sending an exhibit to the World's
Fair at Chicago. All seemed to
think it quite unnessaiy to send any-
thing as the United States, and
especially Chicago, was too young
to hold a fair of any importance to
the outside world. Holland thought
it would have been better if it had
been held in New York, as her sons
had settled New York, and besides,
there was the "four hundred"- to
care for it, but Chicago was in a
wild part of the country, somewhere
near Indiana, and had no four hun-
dred. 'Tis true there were no bulls
and bears allowed in the principal
streets of Chicago as there were in
New York, yet it was not so old a
place nor so cultured a place as Bos-
ton, therefore, it was not to be
thought of sending anything to Chi-
cago ; and besides all this the United
States was very presumptious to
want to hold a World's Fair, any
way. But when Columbia called on
England with her body guard of
states, each carrying the American
flag, England conceded that it would
be quite nice to be represented at
Chicago, especially as Columbia did
not seem very anxious about it, say-
ing all her policemen, car porters,
bell boys, etc., wore brass buttons,
but a few kings, queens and princes
here and there, with gold lace,
would make a nice showing. France
wanted to know what her reward
was to be for the help she gave Co-
lumbia in her infancy. And Canada
reminded her that they were neigh-
bors, to which Columbia replied,
"Yes, and my recreant sons seem to
find you a very convenient neigh-
boV' Here England spoke up,
saying Columbia once gave a tea
party to which she was not invited.
Columbia put a stop to the disputes
by taking the whole company aboard
a steamship bound for the United
States. After having passed around
copies of a song all were asked to
sing, "Columbia, the Gem of the
Ocean." They had tried singing
the "National Air," but as every
one started on a different key and a
different song, it was of short dura-
tion. While singing "Columbia,
the Gem ot the Ocean," all marched
between the standard bearers, fol-
lowing the thirteen states, while the
stars and -stripes waved over them.
This piece was well rendered.
An essay by Miss Howe, The
Veil of Our Future Lives is Inter-
woven by the Angel of Mercy. Miss
Howe handled her subject in a very
pleasing manner, showing much
care in its preparation.
The An^elus, solo, by Miss Byrd.
This was good, showing fine musi-
cal ability. Miss Byrd has a very
sweet voice.
Drama ot Lessons, by the little
ones, in which the alphabet, geogra-
phy, arithmetic, spelling, punctua-
tion and other primary atudies told
tion was over and school should be-
gin again.
The vocal class gave the concert
rondo, Santa Marie, by Brag*,
which is a good concert piece, and
every member of the class deserves
the highest praise.
Semiramis, ten hands, from Ro*>'
sini, by Misses, Cook, Kennedy,
Sansoni, Johnson and T. Ward.
This was one of the finest pieces
and well deserved the applause it
received, as it is very difficult. It
was played by two young ladiea at
each piano and one at the .organ.
• The exeicises closed with the Te
Deum, sung by the whole_class.
Tuesday evening's exe.ciaes were
nearly a repetition ot Monday's.

tion throughout Texas and the In-
dian Territory of being one of the
best schools tor young ladies in the
west, its discipline and course of
instruction being most thorough.
Truly, the Sisters of St. Mary have

cess they have achieved;
