In commenting on an article in the
Gazette relative to turning the waters
of the upper Red river into the Trinity,
the Mckinney Enquirer says:
Does not the control of these matters
belong to the general government, and
would not the cutting of this channel,
or canal, destroy, or materially injure,
the navigation of the lower Red river?
Would II not be an infringement upon
the vested rights of every cltizan, or
property holder, on the lower river -?
The original constitution of the United
States gave to congress the right to
control andregulate commerce between
the states, but the probabilities are
that after so much patching by cob
blers, it may be construed to mean Ill
most anything or nothing. This pro-
iect has been discussed for the past
twenty years, and is an enterprise Of
much importance. VIII some of our
contemporaries, who are better posted
on the subject, give us an "opinion"
We do not believe that the move
would seriously affect navigation on
the lower Bed river, and join the En-
quirer in the wish that some one COM
petent would give an "opinion as is an
opinion" on the subject.
OF one fact there is no doubt. If
the water of Red river was turned in
to the Trinity via Pecan creek it would
make the city of Dallaswhat she never
can be without water navigation.--

IIurrah for Rockwnni
[Rockwall nanner,l

For the information of all concerned
we ARE happy to state, by the efforts Of
ParsOn Sherwood, the subscription TO
build magnificent Methodist church
has been cOnsummated. The amount,
~ shown by the subscription list, Is
about nineteen hundred dollars. We
want 10 see this matter carried out, and
before this time next year we want
Rockwell to have this building COM
pleted. Go on, friends; you are NOV
Ing In the right direction,
We also learn that between six and
eight hundred dollars has been sub
scribed TO build school house, This
IL what we need. And then with such
men ~ Professors Brewer and Hewett
~ instructors, the people may expect
their children 10 receive the very best
mental and moral training.
Next comes the road question, of
which we learn some four or five hum
dred dollars has been subscribed TO-
wards periecting that enterprise.
Enough has alrendy been said through
the columns Of this paper In regard to
bridge across the Fast fork Of Trinity,
and Il road on IN air line TO Dallas.
There IL one thing certain If the
Rockwell people have any spirit of en-
terprise about them they will certainly
subscribe to the above. "Where there
Is n will there IL II way" and If this
matter Is pushed through 1t can be
easily contaminated.

Ak ELEGANT AFRAIR-A very de-
lightful evening was enjoyed by all
those who were 80 fortunate as TO be
guests at the wedding Of Mr.. ". Fl
Frank and Miss Ella Beekmap, at
Turner Hall last evening. The mar
risge ceremony wss performed,
in accordance with Jewish
custom, by Rabbi Mayer about
eight o'clock, and the remainder Of the
evening was spent in most enjoyable
festivities by the large company assem-
bled. The bride. who is we'll known as
one of the bellies OF Jewish society in
this city, was dressed in lavender elk
en- train trimmed proiusely with
point applique and looked even more
lovely than ever before. The lady
guests were also attired in splendid
style and the CLEAN Of the diamonds
almost eclipsed the artificial light.
We wish for the young couple -
lately launched upon the sea OF matri-
mouy, a safe and prosperous voyage,
with whatever little squalls may
come.

Wool Mark cts.

BosToH, May 1.-The sales OF fleece
woods since our last report have been
light, partly because manufacturers dc
not see their way clear to pay the pres
ent high prices, and prefer to supply
their wants from week 10 week rather
than to anticipate them. They have
also been turning their attention to for
eign woods, and the sales OF Cape and
Australian, added to the recent arriv-
ais 10 manufacturers, have supplied
their wants for the immediate future,
and they are not disposed TO prrcE ease
until they are compelled to. There il
no material change in prices OF fine
feeces, holders being confident that
their stocks will be wanted at full
prices before the erd Of the season.
On other than choice feeces there is
less frmness and dealers are disposed
to clean out their odd lots even, at a
concession.
Pulled woods are not very active,
though choice extras sell fairly. There
! no material change IN prices, but ior
anything except choice lots the mar
ket rules in favor OF buyers.
Combing woods are in lair demand,
but as stocks are limited the sales are
not heavy. Prices are firm.
California wool 10 in fair demand,
with considerable sales at recent price,.
Very little OF the new clip has arrived,
and prices are hardly established, but
we quote nomiDally at 3l@3S cents

SOME INsTRUcTloNs. We are now
having Q runaway about every other
day, and it is about time our people
had come instructions in regard TO
stopping runaway teams. When you
see Q team that has become tired stand
ing on the street, while the owner is
trading, or nsyhap, drinking at a con-
yeuient bar, begin to move slowly off, it
is your duty 10 stop it-not by going
gently up and seiziug the reins-that's
a vulgar and common sense proceed
ing. and would not attract
attention at all. You
must rush lrsnticslly at the horses,
taking off your hat and swinging it in
their faces, shouting at the top OF your
voice. The horses will most probably
break into run. You must then re-
double your shouta, throw your hat
after them and give chase. Most
horses are go unreasonable as 10 in-
crease their speed when people are do
ing all they can to induce them 10 stop,
by waving their arms, swinging their
hats and shouting whoa" in a voice
like the shrek OF a locomotive. 1t
therefore becomes the duty Of every
bystander to exert himself by hslloo-
ing, waving his arms, and it convent
ent, throwing something after the 'ugl-
tives. There is nothing soothes an ex'
cited horse like this style OF perform
auce, and when twenty or thirty men
with a sprinkling OF boys, yelling.
cavor.ing, and gesticulating like wild
men, beset the path Of runaway team,
it ought to stop. If it doesn't, it's the
fault OF the horses.
