Announcement**
H. C. Klien, a Sherman dealer in dry
good- and clothing, and one of the first
merchants of that town, has rented the
Red Front on Main street, in this city, for
$1,500 a year, ar.d^wdl move his stock
here immediately. He sees which way
the cat is going to jump.
The registration books are now open at
McDowell’s office, on Skiddy street, and
will remain open until the night of the
15th. Recollect that it costs nothing to
register, and that no man is exempt from
jury or other duty on account of not regis-
tering; there is therefore no excuse for not
attending to this first duty of a patriot.

As the thunder storm Sunday evening
approached the city the lightning struck a
small sapling growing on Woodard street,
a short distance east of Parson Milligan’s
residence. The electric fluid ran along
the roots of the bush scattering the dirt in
every direction, partially uprooted a post
near by, knocked over a pile of empty-
boxes, and postrated a woman standing
in front of the tent a few feet distant. The
woman was not seriously injured. It Is a
little singular that the lightning should
select the bush when there were much
higher objects in the immediate vicinity.
Mr. H. Goldsticker. of Sherman, hav-
ing convinced himself of the fact that Den-
ison is destined to be the metropolis of
Northern Texas, has opened a tobacco
and cigar sample room next door to
the Original Star Store, where he will
keep, for the accommodation of the retail
trade, a choice lot of cigars and tobaccos.
He will, in a short time, be enabled to of-
fer special inducements to jobbers. See
advertisement.

about a mile and a half south ot the city,
lias about six acres of magnificent water-
melons, and is supplying this whole sec-

Circular.
To the voters of Grayson County.
Gkntlf.men :—I have been informed
it is reported in portions of the county,
when I declared myself a candidate for
Sheriff ot Grayson county, 1 would not nl-
low my name to go before a County Con-
vention should there be one. I deny, cm-
phaticallv, of making any such statements.
I did sav if the convention was gotton up
in the interest ot a clique. I would not con-
sider invself bound to abide the rulings of
suen a convention. Though, if a majori-
ty of the Democracy, or a respectable
minority should be represented in the
convention, I would willingly submit to
the decision of such convention, as 1 think
any true Democrat should do.

Tuesday a camper set a loaded shot gun
on tire ground near Mr. Murphy's car-

ing his pony close by. By some means
the animal got the picket rope over the

a charge of buckshot through the shop j
window, and within a few inches of the j
head of Mr. Murphy and a gentleman
with whom he was conversing. The
owner of the gun swears it was not capped.
He is nearly crazy trying to account for
its going off.

To the citizens of Denison and the pub-
lie generally, I would most respectfully
„ . announce that I have just received a few
copy of that valuable work, Chase’s Rc- j casi,s 0f Dr. U. F. Sherman’s Prickly Ash
ceipts. This is a volume of 400 pages
and ha,, passed through numerous editors,
the Doctor carefully re-vising the work
and adding new receipts each year. The
index contains references to over 1,000 ar-
ticles. There is no receipt book published
that has had such a sale as this. The
author vouches for the perfect relia-
I'iiitv pf ail the information con-
tained in its pages. Though a large book
it is sold for the small sum of $1.25.

The Hull bank building and lot was
sold Tuesday to satisfy a mechanic’s lien.
It was bid in by A. S. Nicholson of this
city for $1,375-
We neglected to mention in our Sun-
day’s issue that his Excellency, E. J.
Davis, passed through our city the day be-
fore, on his return from Washington.
A petition, with numerous signatures,
ha* been presented to the City Council,
asking that a drive be cut out. around the
city park.
Jerry Nolan received a dispatch Tues-
day morning from Burklin, Mo., stating
that his brother had been shot, and was
not expected to live- Mr. Nolan left on
the morning train.
Capt. Scott explains his posit-'on re-
garding the Democratic Convention in a
note to he found elsewhere -in this paper.
We recommend its careful perusal, a-
the Captain says lie has ham misrepre-
sented in this matter.
Mr. F. A. Hyatt has sold out his inter-
est in the Alamo to his partner, Mr. Ful-
ler. Mr. Fuller is now sole proprietor,
and Mr. Hyatt will devote his entire at-
tention to the fresli meat shipping busi-
ness. ___
We learn from our Postmaster, Mr. F.
P. Baker, that 15,998 letters were sent from
this office during the month of July. Six-
ty-five registered letters were sent during
the same time and 2$ received. Probably
jixi registered packages passed through
the office to different points during the
month.
Mr. John Harr lias the thanks of the
News corps for a supply of his incom-
parable soda. Mr. Harr’s Soda and
Mineral Water manufactory has become

Ulilig to procure the services of more
workmen. They have arrived—two ot
the best that could be procured in the city
of St. Louis. With their valuable assis-
tance and the excellent stock of French
calf-skins just received, Ulilig says that
he can and will manufacture boots as
good and durable as can be obtained in
any city west of the Mississippi. He nev-
er fails to give perfect satisfaction, for it i*
the pride of Ulilig to turn out an elegant
boot, well knowing that one’s work is an
excellent advertisement.

Sentenced to be shot.
We learn that Capt. Jack is sentenced
to be shot tor the murder of Gen. Canby.
But whether it is a just sentence or not,

and as he passed the hollow just beyond
the old beer garden, a man rode out of
the bushes, his face disguised with paint,
and presenting a six shooter at his head
ordered him to halt, accompanying the
demand with a threat that he would blow
his brains out if he did not hand over his
money instanter. The farmer was un-
armed and having a little change with
him put his hand in his pocket to comply
with the robber’s pressing appeal for
greenbacks; but just as he was about to
hand over his pocket book Mr. Carr of
Whitesboro rode in sight over the hill.
Our farmer was quick to see the change
in the situation and put spurs to his horse.

The best joke of the season was that
perpetrated upon the City Council and
Marshal Saturday evening by two or three
fun-loving gents. The report was freely
circulated that a party of 40 armed men
from the Nation were near the city de-
termined to make a raid on the calaboose
at night and liberate the desperado Love.
The Mayor at once took the alarm. He
ordered out 13 special policemen and the
Marshal armed them with double-barreled
shot guns and placed them around the
jail. After supper the Council was con-
vened and fifteen additional policemen
were detaied. All night 28 men, each
with a shot gun double leaded with the
biggest buck shot in the city, stood watch
over the unfortunate Love.
One of the members of the Couinl ac-
cidentally rode by tlrsrc at a late hour and
the vigilent guard brought him to a hault
and made him dismount. Fortunntelv he
had the pass-word or his body might have
been found the next morning riddled with
bullets. But a wild Texan who passed tip
the street soon after didn't hault wortlr a
cent. To the challenge he simply replied?
“Go to h—I” and rode on,
A guard was again put on Sunday night,
the officers not being willing to admit they
had been sold, though hall the city was
is now in full blast. The best ot horses,
carriages, buggies, hacks, etc., to let to
