had been pending between Mr. Tal-

T. being unable to make satisfactory
arrangements to withdraw from the
Missouri Pacifiic, the negotiations
will probably not result in his sever-
ing his connection with that road.

Good News for our School.
The school committee haye been
notified by Dr. Sears, Secretary of
the Peabody fund, that the sum of
$1,500 will be given from that fund
to our public school, instead of
$1,000, as originally intended. Dr.
Sears, as well as Dr. Burleson, dur-
ing their late visit to this city, ex-
pressed themselves highly pleased
with our public school, under itu
present efficient management, and
Dr. Sears promised to use his best
endeayors to have as large an appro-
priation as possible made from the
Peabody fund, to assist the city in
maintaining the school at its present
standard. He deserves our thanks
for this good work.
Since Col. VV. J. Budd assumed
proprietorship of the Austin Avenue
Hotel, he has had the building
thoroughly repaired, renovated and
repainted, the grounds surrounded
by a neat fence, the building sur-
mounted by a double pointed light-
ning rod, a new stable and out
buildings erected, and the garden
planted with vegetables for the sup-
ply of the table. We would only
add that Mrs. Hall remains in charge
of the culinary department, and that
the dining room is the coolest and
neatest of any house in the city.
Under its new name of "White
House," it is opened to-day to the
public, and we bespeak for it a lib-
eral patronage, especially from cat-
tle dealers, owing to its being so con-
venient to the M., K. & T. stock
yards. See card elsewhere.

Sacrcd Singing.
The announcement made in the
papers that Rev. I). C. Tomlirison
would preach at the new M. E.
j church, Sunday evening, attracted a
j very large audience, so that every
! seat in this large church was accu-
pied.
The sermon preached by the Rev-
erend gentleman was one of the
best we have listened to for many
and many a day, and fully sustained
the reputation that had preceded
him. It was taken from Acts, chap-
ter 9, verse 6, "Lord what will thou
have me to do?" The speaker said
in his remarks that the reason so
many skeptics were to be found, was
especially because those professing
to be christians did not prove them-
selves to be such by their actions ;that
they did not adopt the proper way
for converting others, that of setting
a good example themselves, and by
imitating the example set by Wil
beiforceFenelon, Mrs. Charles, etc.,
who went into foul places and tried
to rescue fallen men by moral
suasion and pleading. If we
would obey the divine command-
ment to love God with all our heart,
and love our brother as ourselves,
then, and not sooner, would the
world be converted, and ad brought
to the school of Christ. Another
reason given was the constant war-
fare kept up by the different sects of
the christian church against each
other.
The sermon was, as we have al-
ready said, exceedingly able and lib-
eral, and evidently made a. lasting
impression upon those who were
so fortunate as to be present.

Mr. Philip Phillips rendered a
representative selection of his moral
and sacred songs, at the new Meth-
odist church Monday evening. The
house was pretty well filled, and the
audience gave patient attention to
the rather monotonous programme
for an hour and a half. The music
was of the recitative order, and while
the performer threw a good deal of
expression into his pieces, no doubt
a majority of his hearers went away
wondering that it should have se-
cured him the great reputation he
j seems to enjoy. Among the best of
the hoiv** gUrsiii were, ♦•Let nsgather
up the S ♦'Leaf fur Life,"
' "Self D ceil.*' (a temperance s ing)
"The Cr.nlle bed S jiig," and Ten*
nyv.m'* "T>>o Late."
Gaisman's compressed yesm.
fight took place Sunday evening
the corner of Main street and
Burnet avenue, which attracted a
large crowd. It was a one-sided af-
fair, however, the smaller one doing
all the pommeling, while the other,
a man of gigantic stature, evidently
believed in the old saying, "He who
fights and runs away will live to
fight another day," and tried to get
out of the fight by skeedadling. Both
parties were promptly arrested by
Marshal Hardwick and Deputy
Sheriff Person. Their trial took
place before the Mayor Monday,
when the large man plead guilty by
proxy and paid his fine, $2 and
costs. Theother plead "not guilty,"
but the testimony against him was
very strong, and he was fined $5 and
costs. Luckily for the city they
both had the wherewith to pay.

We learn that the machinery for
the lead mines owned by Messrs.
Bennett, of this city, and our old
friend M. M. Steinthal, near Kirby-
ville, Taney county, Mo., is now on
the grounds and will be put up im-
mediately. These mines are said to
be very rich, but water has been fill-
ing the shafts continually so that
work was impeded, but with the aid
of the machinery it will be possible
to pump the water out as fast as it
enters. Steinthal is satisfied he has
struck a bonanza, and we hope he
has.
Among the Dead Failures
Of the pa,st how many bogus nostrums
maybe numbered! Beginning their ca-
reer with a tremendous flourish of
trumpets, blazoned for a time in the pub-
lic prints and on flaming posters, soon,
but not too soon, were they relegated to
the limbo of things lost on earth. But
Ilostetter's Stomach Bitters is a living
and thriving remedy. It goes on curing
and tocure. Neitherunderhand nor open
competition can affect it. On the con-
trary, contrast with inferior rival prepara-
tions only increases its popularity.. It
has been repeatedly imitated but with-
out success. Counterfeits of itjhave been
surrepititiously introduced, but have fal-
len flat. Everywhere it entrenches itself
in the eonfidei.ee of the people; and well
it may, for it is a thoroughly reliable in-
vlgorantof the people, banishes dyspep-
sia and constipation, braces and nerves,
cures rheumatic ailments and kidney com*
plaints, and eradicates and prevents inter-
mittent and remittent fevers.

SOCIETY YOltWJEllTS.
Lots Purchased and a Liirqjo Hall
to bo Erected.
At a meeting of society Vorwasrts,
held at their hall Sunday afternoon,
the society concluded to purchase
from the Town Company the four
lots situated 011 Burnet avenue, cor-
ner of Skiddy street, which were
recommended by the cammittee ap-
pointed to select a suitable location.
It was also decided to commence the
fencing of these lots, and the build-
ing of a hall thereon, at as early a
day as practicable. Tho hall will
be a frame building, 30 feet wide
and 80 feet long, and will be used
by the society for concerts, lectures,
and other purposes.
' In order to raise the necessary
funds for the lots and building it was
decided to issue a certain number of
shares, at five dollars each. Several
hundred dollars were at once taken
by those of the members present,
and we believe the society will find
no difficulty in disposing of the re-
mainder of the shares, as a lecture
hall is badly needed in this city.
These shares will be redeemed as
soon as possible, those takekn by par-
ties not members to be redeemed
first.
The financial management of the
affairs of this society has heretofore
been excellent, the society having
always met their bills when due,
consequently those who assist this
society by taking shares need have
no apprehensions as to the safe re-
turn of the amount loaned.
The gymnasium of the society
will be erected on the lots as soon
as the fence is completed, and ar-
rangements will be made so that
children can participate in the bene-
fits of a gymnasium, under certain
conditions, which will be made pub-
lic.

The News was pleased to ree'eive
a call Monday morning from Mr. P.,
H. Dolan, of Perry county, Ohio.
Mr. Dolan represents about one
hundred citizens of Ohio, who wish
to emigrate to our growing State,
and he has been spending several
months traveling iu Texas. IIo was
very much pleased with the country
in the vicinity of Fort Worth, where
he spent several weeks, and thought
very seriously of recommending his
friends to locate in that vicinity, but
since his visit to this portion of the
State he is of the opinion that Gray-
son county offers better advantages,
and it is quite probable that the col-
ony will come to Denison and finally
purchase land and settle in this vi-
cinity.

Browne's Phonographic Monthly
is before us. This issue presents, as
usual, an interesting array of reading
matter. The "Offered Improve-
ments" department is as interesting
as ever. The sketch of T. C. Le-
land is worth the price of the maga-
zine to all loveis of the phonograph-
ic art. Mr. Leland is one of the
pioneer phonographers in this coun-
try, and his reminiscences of the
early days of phonography are ex-
ceedingly interesting. Mr. J. D.
Pulsifer furnishes the reporting ex-
ercise for this month. The Monthly
is published at 737 Broadway New
York, at $2 a year.
