The Alexander Hotel
This popular resort for the travel-
ing public generally is located in the
beautiful city of Louisville, Ky., and
ably engineered by that whole-soul-
ed gentleman, Mr. Jo. B. Alexan-
der, a man that has few equals and
no superior in the hotel busines-.
The Alexander is the headquarters
in Louisville for Texans, and well it
should be, for there they find every
thing calculated to make a stranger
in a strange lar.d feel as if he hadn’t
lost his last friend, and when he does
leave, it is generally with a profound
regret. Should you ever visit Louis-
ville, stop at the Alexander hotel,

house. y,.

I consider it my duty to Impart some very valua-

aa many of them know the unpleasant condition
under which I have labored tn performing my
dutiea aa conductor of the Georgia Central rail-
road.
Some month* ago 1 became afflicted with r severe
attack of Rheamatiam, and I desire to state how
I was cuted. It increased in violence until I
could no longer get in and out of the cars without
assistance.*
While thus suffering all the agonies of this dread
disease and ready to abandon my position through
sheer necessity, I was induced to try B. B. B.
THE KKKECT WAS TRULY MAGICAL. I
had no idea that a medicine could produce such an
effect in to short a time. I experienced a wonderful
change before using half a Dottle. After taking
only tour bottlas, I Sod myself to-day a wall man.
Thu splendid medicine effected a cure no less
wonderful tn the case of my wife, who was also
terribly afflicted with Rheumatism. She obtained
complete relief and perfect restoration to health
after taking the same number of bottles I did.
I take much pi ensure in recommending B. B. R.
to my friends as FIRST-CLASS. I refer to Mr.
R. Schmidt. Agent C. R. R., Atlanta, and to C. R.
K. Agent, Macon, and Dr. Hupe. Atlanta.

Warning to Parents.
Our attention has lately been call-
ed to a growing evil in Denison,
which if not nipped in the bud will
result in much unhappiness to pa-
rents. The practice has grown very
much among a certain class of chil-
dren when sent to the stores to buy
articles for their parents, to return
home after making purchases, and
report that certain articles cost more
than they actually paid for them,
thereby putting in their pockets the
difference between the actual cost of
the goods and the price they claimed
to have paid. This is especially
noticeable since the opening of Har-
ben’s-5 & 10c. store. In one in-
stance a boy was detected in report-,
ing that he paid $1.25 for a lot of
tin-ware which he only paid 60c.
He was detected by the merest
chance, for the price the cute little
fellow gave was exactly what the
goods would cost in any other store,
and the mother only found its cost by
dropping in at this cheap store and
pricing some of the same goods. The
proprietor of the 5 & 10c. store would
be glad to meet all of the anxious
mothers and fathers in Denison, at
his store to try and quell this rising
flood which threatens to engraft all
of the rising generation of “kids” in
Denison; at the same time will show
up some of the rarest bargains in
America, for the ^ & 10c. store is
certainly the cheapest place in Den-
ison.
Music-
Mr. Louis Rosenburg, who has
been a resident of Denison for ten
►'ears, offers his services to4he pub-
lic. He is prepared to furnish first-
class music for balls, receptions,
public or private entertainments,
either in or oat of the city. By per-
mission he refers to the Gazetteer.
The Gate City Bakery
The above named bakery is one of
the oldest established in the city, the
proprietor, Mr. Hallenbeck being
one of the pioneers of Denison. By
the closest attention to business he
has built up a trade that any young
man might feel proud of.
Some idea of the magnitude of
Mr. Hallenbeck’s business can be
inferred when we state that he uses
on an average, one car load ot flour
er week The capacity of the
ake shop is the largest in North
Texas, and several experienced
hands are employed , to supply the
immense demand for bread, pastry,
pies, &c.
Mr. Hallenbeck has one wagon on
the streets at all hours of the day
filling orders, and so great has his
business increased that it will ne-
cessitate the putting on of a second
wagon.
The best material is only nsed at
Hailenbeck’s, the brands of flour
are the best obtainable. Mr. Hal-
lenbeck has attached to his bakery
an elegant ice cream parlor, the
most popular in the city.

months with Rheumatism, which had stubbornly

The Circus.
It is rarely enough that one is jus-
tified to speak in terms of unquali-
fied praise of circus performances.
The migratory tent-shows depend
too much as a rule upon their flam-
ing posters, and do not remain long
enough in any one place to pay-
proper attention to the quality of
their entertainments. Barrett’s
double show is a gratifying excep-
tion to this rule, inasmuch as the
performers are measurably skilled
and daring, and the programme is
not merely faithfully carried out, but
the performance throughout is of a
superior quality. Robinson and
Stickney are still the most marvel-
ous riders in the world,and the man-
ege act by Miss Lake is superb.
The acrobatic performances are ex-
cellent and in many respects novel.
The variety of feats, from roller
skating to mid-air velocipede riding,
from the artistic fire juggling to as-
tonishing feats of extraordinary mer-
it. The menagerie is very large and
the specimens for the most part rare
and interesting animals. Some of
the horses are perfect models of
equine beauty, and their intelligent
training reflects great credit upon
the management.
The above notice is from the San
Francisco Examiner, of August 11,
1S85, where Barrett’s show has been
during the past month, and from
California they come to Texas, by
way of El Paso. The date for this
show in Denison, is Thursday, Sep-
tember 17th, 1885.
Late Saturday
Mixon called at the places of busi-
ness which are in the habit of keep-
ing open Sunday, and hinted to the
proprietors that it would be advisa-
ble to close their doors. At mid-
night the saloons extinguished their
lights, and not a drink could be had
for love or money. Sunday morning
revealed a state of affairs on our
streets that has not occurred only,
once in the history of the city.
Hundreds of men were wandering
aimlessly up and down Main street,
and a number were scouting in the
alleys to see if they could gain
ingress to the back door of the
saloons. But the doors were closed,
and neither money nor coaxing could
prevail with the saloon-keeper.
A great many people bought their
bottles Saturday, and enjoyed a
nip” in the seclusion of tbeir rooms.
It was amusing to watch the old
hums, who spend a good share of
their time and substance in the
saloons, peering in at the doors. It
reminded us of a lot of little chil-
dren standing at a show window
during the holidays and looking at
the “goodies” which were so near,
and yet so far.
All kinds of devices were resorted
to to obtain liquor, and some of the
tactics employed were really amus-
ing. We have it from a perfectly
reliable source that a railway em-
ploye, who had been on a protracted
spree for several days, got to such a
strait that he drank the liquor off a
bottled tarantula. The circumstance
was sta’ed to our reporter by an eye
witness. The Gazettkkr reporter
was invited to several rooms where
the bottle was set out on the table,
which was surrounded by a number
of gentleman.
If the Sunday law is enforced, we
shall hear of a number of private
club rooms, in fact a well known at-
torney-at-law has invited his friends
to his apartments next Sunday,
where there will be no stint of
liquid delights.
It seemed hard for a number of
people to reconcile themselves to
the situation, and they heaped im-
precations upon the barber Williams
who was the cause of all their woes.
One party, whose nose looked like
the wattles of a turkey in gobbling
season, and whose eyes have an in-
voluntary way of weeping, thought
that hanging was too good for the
d—n nigger. He was evidently a
great sufferer.
The saloons on Sundry were a
great resort for clerks, merchants,
and, in fact, all professions. They
went there to play,dominoes, sip beer
and compare nqftes. From an early
hour to midnight vigil men can be
seen pondering over games of domi-
noes, which is the favorite pastime
for Sunday loiterers.lt was this class
that,to use a homely expression, “did
not seem to know what to do with
themselves”—the ennui of the day
was oppressive. They sat on dry
goods boxes in front of their busi-
ness establishments and talked over
the probable issue of the prohibition
question
The opinion seemed to be unani-
mous that should the prohibition sen-
timent prevail, it would prove
very disastrous to the business inter-
ests of Denison. Now and then men
were met who had been hard drink-
ers all their lives, who declared that
they would vote for local option;
that class, however, was scarce, and
cut a very small figure in the com-
munity.
A great inconvenience was ex-
perienced for the reason that the ice
wagons failed to make their trips.
On what grounds the ice men can
excuse their action we fail to see.
The general impression is that they
stopped their wagons at the instance
of the saloon men. Customers
want ice on Sunday more than any
other day, and Messrs. Carter and
LaBeaume are playing a losing
game if they pander to ons element
to the disadvantage of the larger
portion of our citizens.
In closing tueir saloons, it was un-
doubtedly the object of the liquor
men to give our people a foretaste of
what local option will do for the
town should it carry in September.
That it will prove disastrous no one
who has closely studied the question
can doubt. The only way to strike
at the root of the evil is to prohibit
the manufacture of intoxicants. It
has been proven a thousand times
that local option is an entire failure.
Should it pass Denison will receive
a blow from which it cannot rally in
years. That intoxicants is one of
the greatest evils of the world we do
not deny, but local option is a poor
expedient to stop it.
Ohio has a remarkable decrease
in the number of marriages in pro-
portion to the population. During
the year preceding the war there
were over 23,000 out of a population
of about 2,340,000. The war re-
duced this number to an average of
about 19,^00, and the return of peace
ran up the number to 30,479. This
large increase denoted that there
were a good many faithful girls who
waited for the men to whom they
had plighted their troth. After that,
the average number of marriages was
about 26,000 a year for a number of
years; but following the panic of
1SS2 there was a drop to 23,480.
The revival of business in 1882 was
marked by another increase to 30,-
500, but the succeeding depression
of 1SS4 again reduced the number to
28,720._

If the vast panorama of past ages
should sweep by us with its glorious
could see pictured
thereon the heroic deeds, the god-
like actions of men whose life-
scenes have become beautiful ’neath
the magic power ot age, and then
ask, how many of these successes
were caused by “Hope”—how many
ot tha crowning deeds of their life-
times were prompted by the same
influence, from the gliding canvas
we should answer, the far superior
numbers.
Like a guardian angel Hope hovers
o’er us, smiling and beckoning us
on and ever pointing to a higher goal.
When our lives are shadowed by
sorrow “Hope” draws a veil o’er
her beautiful face, and sorrowing
drops a tear. When our sorrows are
past and the skies are clear, her
cheerful face again appears
Without this guiding star to point
us to success we should care very
little for—
“Toil without recompense,
; Tears all in vain.”
How often are our brightest hopes
hopes and prospects blasted ? As
when we so passionately long to
live the happy past over again, we
hear, far resounding the great gate
of the past closed behind us forever,
as Milton did the gate of Paradise,
when the angel pointed him the way
up the holy mountain, and he was
forbidden to look back.
In the life of every man there are
sudden transitions of feeling, which
seem almost miraculous. At once,
as if some magician had touched the
heavens and the earth, the dark
clouds melt into sif, the wind falls
and serenity succeeds the storm.
The change from deepest despair to
bouyant hope is as instantaneous.
Who is there without hope ? The
fettered prisoner in his dismal cell—
the feeble sufferer on his couch of
pain—and the weary traveller in the
unfriendly land,each cherishis a hope
which is the *tar of their existence.
Hope brings visions of freedom to
the slave, of health to the sick and
of home to the wanderer. Hope
touches the hand of the toiling and
prompts them to success. Bathes
the brow of the suffering, whispers
peace to the sorrowing and finally
attends the departing spirit to its
goal.
The dying of a great hope is like
the sinking of the sun. The joys of
life are gone, the shadows deepen
around us—and all is gloom. We
look forward into the dim future
with not a ray of light Then hope
appears; and the earth is beautiful
It gives strength and bravery to all
our undertakings. Let its inspiring
power live in the hearts of every one.
Cherish well this gentle guest of the
spirit. Veer not with every shifting
wind of circumstances. Be not a
toy in the hands of fate, which we
ourselves do make or mar. Waste
not your years in vain regret; nor
wait the fulfillment of indiscreet de-
sires. But live in the present wisely,
forgetful of the past, and with radi-
ant hope for the mysterious future.
Alas! Man’s hopes are fleeting.
How often we hope against an
immutable fate. As when this na-
tion so ardently hoped for the re-
covery of the great, august and
silent man. E’en though we saw
him unceasingly sinking with the
dying of each day. And when the
last ray of hope had vanished, the
whole world joined in our melan-
choly wailings, and our sincerest
grief for the mighty hero—Grant.
And to-day, brave-hearted Ameri-
cans and strong-souled foreigners are
the jewelers who case in black this
nation’s glittering crown. But this
man left footprints on the shifting
sands of lime which we might well
follow ; and his noble achievements
will live on, ever cherished, ever
more grand and glorious. Although
he has gone from earth forever, hope
soothingly, to the mourning children,
whispers of the endless day beyond
the sky where their humble com-
mander will be their brother still.
Hope is the anchor to the soul,
and will control our fragile boat in
our voyage o’er life’s tempestons
sea. And as we near the farther
shore, hope gilds with its splendor
the distant summits of the ever-
green mountains of Life.

The Baptist Had ’Em, c
An Episcopalian paper, the Liv-
ing Church, is responsible for the
following interesting episode:
Fpur ministers, a Baptist, Presby-
terian, Methodist and Roman Cath-
olic, met by agreement to dine on
fish. As soon as grace was said, the
Roman Catholic rose, armed him-
self with knife and fork and taking
about one-third of the fish, compris-
ing the head, removed it to his plate,
exclaiming as he sat down with great
satisfaction, “Papa est caput eccle-
siae (the Pope is the head of the
church.) Immediately the Metho-
dist minister arose and helping him-
self to about one-third, embracing
the tail, seated himself and said,
“Finis coronat opus,” (the end
crowns the work.) The Presbyte-
rian now though it was about time
tor him to move and taking the re-
mainder of the fish to his plate, ex-
claimed, “In media est veritas,
(truth lies between two extremes.)
The Baptist had nothing before him
but an empty plate, and the pros-
pect ot a slim dinner, and snatching
up the bowl of melted butter, he
dashed it over them all, exclaiming,
“Ego baptizo vos,” (I baptize you
all.) _ 'r^r

A New York genius has invented
a machine for producing “loud and

It is stated that $800 worth of

Miss Laura Moore, who bore off
the first prize for singing in the re-
cent competitive examination at the
Paris Conservatory, turns out to be
an American after all, and she has

Paris Figaro.
There is a scarcity of heavy tra-
gedians since John McCullough’s
retirement. Thos. W. Keene is in

heretofore been promptly refused.
Manager Zimmerman says that
James O'Neill has been offered a
cheque for $20,000 to support Mary
Anderson next season. He refused
for the reason that he prefers to star
in “Monte Christo.” It is possible,
after all, that Miss Anderson may
not be supported by an imported
leading man.
Chicago is being entertained now
by a musical prodigy from Seguin,
Texas, known as the “Cowboy
Pianist.” His name is A. O. Bab-
bel. Among the numbers given
last Saturday night were “The Car-
nival ot Venice,” “Selections from
Norma,” “Coming Through the
Rye,” with variations, and “The
Gertz Schottische,” a piece of his
own composition. Mr. Babbel plays
entirely by ear and is a genuine
cowboy, never having been out of
the state until about a month ago.
He says playing came to him natur-
ally.
Eighty-eight small comedy organ-
izations are reported already as pre-
pared to start out on the road, and
more are coming. This is a fearful
prospect for managers and audi-
ences of provincial theaters, for
about three-fourths of the alleged
comedies are the veriest rot in ex-
istence.
“When they don’t like a play in
Arizona, they don’t like it no matter
who was its author. A traveling
company recently gave ’Hamlet’ in
an Arizona town, and the following
notice of the event appeared in the
local paper: ‘A company of duffers
gave a show last night at Barney
Hill’s. They played a dizzy snap
called ‘Hamlet.’ We never heard
of the drama before and we never
want to see it again. It is the snid-
est thing in the way of a show we
ever fell up against. There ain’t no
horses, singing, fighting or dancing
in the whole blamed shebang. There
was a lively dog fight in the middle
of the play that was a great success.
The actors were not killed but the
duck that played Hamlet was tarred
and feathered. He will recover.”
