Another Chapter in the Old. Ola story.

a few evenings since, Mt very late
hour, the reporter observed man con-
siderably under the influence of liquor
passing up Main street accompanied
by n modestly dressed woman. Pass
ing in front of Il well-known drinking
saloon, the man made an effort to en-
ter. This endeavor was strenuously
opposed by his companion, who APP
peared to be pleading earnestly with
him, although the writer was too far
oil to hear the words. Finding expos
tulations vain, she endeavored to de-
tain him by clinging to his arm and
garments. His superior strength,
however, overcame this feeble resis-
lance, and the victim of an uncontrol-
able thirst was soon standing before
the long array of many colored bot
ties. Here the woman unhcsitatingly
followed him. She seemed to be re-
monstrating with the barkeeper
against the latter supplying her hus-
band, for such he seemed to be, with
any more drink. The barkeeper APP
peared to hesitate for q long time, but
finally, overcome by threats and inn
portunities, he gave the man glass of
beer. The woman eyed the two for
few moments in a manner that spoke
far more than words could have con-
veyed. If an orphans curse can drag
an angel down from heaven, what
must be the effect of loving womans
quivering lips under circumstances
like the above.

and will be located on the square. The
building has been rented from Captain
Swink, and the gentleman who invests
his capital in this useful enterprise has
already started to ST. Louis to purchase
the necessary machinery. The enter
prise cannot fail to redound to the last
ing benefit of Dallas. 1t is to be hoped
that the next step in the direction of
manufactures will be the erection of
n paper mandatory. The HERALD
will have more to say about this at II
future time.

THE MARSHALL FIRE.

An extra from the Marshall Herald
Office, dated at noon, on the 4th, gives
us some additional particulars of the
fire at Marshall on Tuesday morning.
The dispatch published in The HER
AID yesterday morning, however, con-
tanned all the important items. The
Marshall Herald says:
The fire broke out in the rear of
MeTbacher's store, in what is known
as the johnson or Evers building, in Il
one story frame room used as a store
house, attached to the main building.
At that time the wind was compare
lively calm. The fire burned slowly,
but there was no engine on hand, no
water, and the flame slowly took its
course, as if reluctant to enter upon the
work of devastation. Ten minutes
elapsed, and then the fire fiend felt
that the coast was clear. The large
brick house on the corner was soon
burning, and all efforts to control the
progress of the conllagration were
fruiness. At one time it looked as if
the splendid Malone opera house was
doomed to destruction the wall be-
came very hot, the glass doors seemed
as if they would be soon in blaze, but
active eXertionS saved this fine struct-.
ure.
Then brisk breeze came from the
north sweeping the flood of flame
towards the court house. Twice or
three times the roof was on fire from
falling cinders, but was soon eXtin.
guished. Such was the alarm and the
danger that the district clerk, Mr..
Pierce, deemed it prudent to remove
the records. Twyman q Womack
came very near losing their beautiful
store. The gallery Oh the west was
twice in bright blaze, and burned the
first time slowly for at least ten min
utes. The fire, however, readily
yielded to the efforts made to eXtin-
guish the flames. The cinders We're
carried several blocks south, rendering
every precaution necessary.
The entire block was consumed,
reaching from the Johnson-Evers
building west to a. Cohn, and is now a
mass of smouldering, smoking ruins.
A large amount OfgoOds were saved,
but in a damaged condition. We saw
one lot on fire after their removal To
the square.
The firemen worked very nobly
when they got to work, but could do
little or nothing for the want of water.
1t is strange that, with as much valua-
bic property as there is here, there
should be no provision for this neces-
sary, and ridiculous that the expense
of a fire engine should be incurred
without any water to render 1t useful.
Our people should wake up now.
No people work more faithfully at a
fire than those OF Marshall. Even
some of the ladies took,part in carrying
water to arrest the flames.
There were no accidents, and but
one or two fisticuffs.

at lircda, Lcrids aud Santa COlOmo.
King AllonsO's forces numbered 1000
men. They lost five chief officers ut
Breda and $50 men ut Santa COlOmO.
Another victory for the Carlists under

government troops are said to havclOst
all their artillery and many prisoners.
The Al(Onsis General DelatrG was
killed.
In the house of commons this even
ing OClery withdrew his motion for
the recognition by Great Britain Of the
belligerent rights of the Carlists in
Spain. Bourke, under secretary for the
foreign department., stated that there
was no reason to depart from the policy
of Northumberland observed during
the previous civil wars in Spain.
MADRID, May G.--King Alfonso re-
ceived the Papal Nuncio to-day. He
said he was aware of his duties, graft
tude and affection to the Holy Father,
and should fulfill them.
TOPEKA, May G.-Reports from all
parts of the state say the prospects for
crops of all kinds were never better. Z,
The frost of Saturday did no damage to |
wheat. There is considerable Matching
of young grasshoppers in some locali-
ties, but the cold rains are killing them
about as fast MS they appear. The aver
age of wheat in the state is much |
larger than last year, and more corn is
being planted than last year, and all .
things considered the agricultural out
look in Kansas is more encouraging |
than it has been for the past three
wears.

MARSHALL, May 4.-This morning
at 3 o'clock a fire broke out in the
johnson building, on the northwest
portion of the square, and by half-past
four o'clock the whole block was in
ruins.
MahOne's new opera house was for
long time in serious danger, but being
a fire-proof structure, it was saved.
Twyman II Womack's splendid
building on the opposite corner from
where the fire first started, was saved
by the superhuman efforts of the
citizens.
The following are the principal suf-
ferers, with the amount of their loss
Stein & Ludewig, $500; Uden, 5000;
Chic, $4,000; Mrs. Evers, $1,000
Lopez, 500; Loeb & Goldwater, 81 600;
Merzbacher, $1,000; Kahn u Bro,
$4,000; McPhail & Sons, $500
Charles Heinrich, $4,000; Cohn, s., 900;
Stinson, $500; Dan. Heyn, $500
Levy, 500 Schonfield, $1,000 Kali
man, 5000 /; Wagnon, $4,000. Volney
Hall, who had q room in one of the
buildings, lost his entire wardrobe.
The total loss is not far from $40, 900,
with not more than 1900 insurance.

BERLIN, May 4.-Dr. Falk, minister
of public instruction, introduced u bill
i'm the lower house of the diet, provid-
ing for the suppression of religious or
ders i'm Prussia. The bill provides that
all religious orders shall be banished
from Prussia. Existing establishments
are forbidden to received new men,
bers, and their present organization
must dissolve within six month after
the passage of this bill. Partial excep-
ton is made in favor of religious bodies
engaged in the work of education,
which may prolong their existence
four years. Those whose object is the
care of the sick may continue their or
ganization, but are liable to dissolu-
ton at any moment. Associations
thus continuing are to be subject to su-
pervision of government officials. The
property of converts is not to be con-
fiscated, hut will be temporarily adj
ministered by the state.
KNOXVILLE, May A heavy storm
blew down the county bridge over the
Tennessee river, and also damaged the
Charleston railroad bridge; loss, sixty
five thousand dollars.
NEW ORLEANS, May Nv. S. Cal
houn, at one time well known Red
river planter, but more recently a no.
torious Grant parish politician, was
yesterday convicted of forgery and
publishing a deed of quittance, where
6y he attempted to defraud Dina Will
liams, colored, his former mistress, of
$50, 200. The opinion is freely ex-
pressed that Calhoun knows too much
of Louisiana politicians to serve term
in the peniteniiary.
NEW YORK, May 4.-Miss Ida Gree
