Almost immediate pursuit was given, but
without success.

made of these men, as thefts of this char-
acter are becoming decidedly bio com-
mon in this vicinity.
Galveston and New York United by Rail
ItealuNi IWtoiiiw the Connect lug Link.
Monday evening, March io, at 7 o’clock,
the first train on the Texas Central rail
road came puffing into the city, and stop-
ped at the foot of Main street. A large
crowd of people were present to witness
the event, made memorable from the fact
that with the connection of this road with
the M. K. & T. Ry., the extreme South is
united with the North, East and West
No speeches were made, no poor whisky
was drank, but every one present fully
comprehended the magnitude of the event,
and saw therein a prophecy of the
commercial greatness in store for
Denison and the magnificent State that
gave her birth.
La*t night His Honor, Mayor Owings,
sent the following dispatch to the Mayors
of Galveston, Houston, New York. Boston,
Chicago, St. Louis and San Francisco:
Dkmson, March ro, 1S73.
Denison to her sister cities, from the At-
lantic to the Pacific, sends greeting :
It has remapped for Denison to become
the great connecting link uniting the South
with the East, North and West. May the
union be one of lasting peace and pros-
perity. L. S. Owings, Mayor.
The travel between Denison and Bon-
ham is rapidly increasing. Gov. Owings
sent out four extras, Monday, all loaded, in
addition to his regular stage. Denison
merchants are getting a large patronage
from that section. Cheap good.** does it.
The Episcopal Sunday School was or-
ganized at the School house, on Rusk
street, Sunday, by the election of Mr.
Wood, of the M. k. iY T. Ry., Superinten-
dent. The following persons volunteered
as teachers, and have taken charge ot
classes: Mis* Bennett, Miss Bacon, Miss
‘Chilton, Mr. Fitzhugh and Mr. Cussel.
The card of Nelson & Perry, attorneys,
appears in this issue. These gentlemen
are so well known to our community that
anything we could say, would be surplous
We have no doubt they will receive a lib-
eral share of the public patronage.
Mr. M. Hiltz. of Kansas City, has taken
charge of the wholesale liquor house on
Skiddv street, lately conducted by Chailes
Klcinschinidt ft PeterOystermeyer, thel at-
ter individuals having suddenly left the city
a few days since. Mr. Hiltz informs us
he lost considerably by them, as they \> ere
largely indebted to him for their stock of
liquors.
II. C. Moore of Denison, Texas, will
please accept our profound thanks for late
copies of Denison papers. Just see what
energy and determination does toward
building a town; Denison, a town of
about six months growth, contains a pop-
ulation of upward of three thousand peo-
ple, together with churches, schools, and
other necessities to a town, and has, also,
two newspapers in operation, one of which
is a dally and weekly. Prominent among
the columns of advertisments. in the Daily
News, we notice that of our friend, H.
Moore, dealer in hardware and tinner's
goods, who (.migrated to that point some
three months since. We wish success to
Harry in his new business.—-.SWe/w (III.)
Advocate.
A Mr. J. Eaton, living near the Park, in
a tent, died Monday evening, of a coges-
tive chill. Mr. Eaton had been suffering
with the dropsy over fifteen years, and
leaves a wife and seven children in very
destitute circumstances. Two of the chil-
dren are now sick, and the mother is en-
tirely without money, or even bread for
her little ones. She says she is willing to
work, but cannot, of course, leave her sick
children.
Mr. T. M. Wright, assistant Deputy
Sheriff, ordered a coffin from the underta-
ker last night, and will see that the man
is dcaeently buried. This is a cn>c that
rails for sympathy, and we trust an effort
may be made at once to raise money
to assist the widow and her helpless fam-
ily. We have been informed that Mr.
Eaton did excellent service for Texas
during the Mexican war. lie has resided
in this county for the past five years.
It is with pleasure we notice the increas-
ed activity in building in Denison, partic-
ularly on Main street, where structure* are
going up that would do credit to a town of
50 years growth. It is to the indomitable
energy and perseverance of such business
men as we h ive in this place that every
l ew town owes its prosperity. The ma-
sons are making rapid progress with Maj.
Young's block. Triad’s two-story dressed
stone building, which is destined for a
French restaurant atid billiard room, i*
I >oming up into fine proportions* as are
also the walls of the First National Bank
« f Denison, a building, which, when com-
pleted, will be a credit and an ornament
to the city. Business men who came
among us u short time ago, and appeared
then to be skeptical of the permanent
growth of our city, have, through such
examples acknowledged their error, and
i -vested their capital in business, and arc
t -day among the most prosperous of our
merchants.
Mr. W. H. Rickey, traveling agent
for Messrs. Snider ft Holmes, paper
dealers, St. Louis, was in the etty
Tuesday. From here he goes down the
Central. Newspaper men should give Mr.
Rickey their orders. We have been ac-
quainted with the house some time, and
can assure our contemporaries they will
not regret giving them patronage. All
our paper is purchased of Snider ft
I lolmes.

Messrs. Chav Rasback and Geo, Rey-
nolds have built a fine business house on
Woodard street. It it* plastered through-
out and finished off in good style. The
lower floor is fitted up for u merchantile
business. Up stair* are two large offices,
one of which they occupy themselves.
Their office is probably fixed up and fur-
nished better than any similar room in
the city. Both gentleman are Passenger
Conductor* on the M., K. ft.T. Ry., and
no more popular officers run on the road
than they.
It is with pleasure we direct attention
to the advertisement ofDudley ft Dexter’s
Drug Store, published in this issue. 'They
now have a very large stock of Drugs and
Medicine>, Wines and Liquors. Toilet
goods, etc. The Prescription Department
is very full, and in charge of Mr. Dexter
himself, who is a thoroughly qualified
druggist of twelve years experience. This
new firm has already done a large
business, which we are pleased to know
is rapidly increasing.
We have a class of citizens in Denison,
whose hands are ever open to relieve dis-
tress. Our remarks regarding the needy
condition of Mrs. Eaton, whose husband
died Monday, met the eve of Mr. Warren
early this morning, and he and l)r. Mozley
went out among the business men, and
before noon had raised about $75 in pro-
visions and money. The family are n<tw
supplied with eatables enough to last them
for two months and $25 betides, in cash,
on deposit with Mr. Sleeper the grocer.
Messrs. Warren ft Mo/.lev delivered the
donations in person, and we will wager a
hundred, there was not a happier or more
grateful person in Denison, than Mr*.
Eaton. This is what we term Christianity,
pure and undefiliid. “The Lord loves a
cheerful giver."
Tilt* Opening Itall.
It has now been definitely settled that
the opening ball shall take place at the

As the event will also celebrate the Fnion

We presume many of the Ladies of Den-

has opened a choice stock ot ladies’, Mis-
ses’ andchllden’s goods, on Skiddv street:
such is the fact however. She has a fine as-
sortment of millinery goods, gloves, hos- j
ierv. trimmings and dress goods. Miss
Craighead also devotes special attention to
the purchase of hair goods of all kinds, and
guarantees satisfaction in all cases. Mrs.
Shccder, an experienced dressmaker of ex-
cellent tastewis now associated with Miss
Craighead and will do an v work in her line
with promptness and in the best style.
These Ladies deserve support and en-
couragement in their business, and we have
no doubt thev will he liberally sustained.
