Fort worth

Twenty-three brick or stone TWO
story stores, substantial aud well mn
lshed, IN course Of construction or COM
pletion, have been commenced SINCE
the railroad excitement, But no more
foundations arc under progress. n
few nice residences are going up, oul
at present the economical OoH'h house
predominates largely for business pur'
poses or residences.
A goodly number OF country wagons
are on the street, with wood, produce
or cotton for sale, but no heavy west
ern freighters are In sight.
Lumber receipts about fifteen ears
per day; general merchandise about
seven or eight.
Cattle shipping to Dallas, 81. Loul'
or Chicago at the rate OF about six car
per day. Cotton to Dallas, m well ~
to Southern Gnd Eastern cities, hbou
sixty bnles. l'lUur and grain In pro-
portionate amounts.
Water very scarce aud sold at mgr
prices, planning mills being compelIe'
to buy all they use for their machinery

Tho porlly form Of George N. Aid
redge, cur County Attorney, aud Eol'@
aohates Mr. Cowart, were visible Oh
the street yesterday evening. They
both look well after their northern
tour,and would have been In the night
before but for wreck on the road,
which delayed them for some twelve
or fifteen hours. They appear to have
enjoyed their trip very much, but Mr.
Aldredge says that tho cuckoo clock Is
about the only thing worth seeing at
tho Ce.tennial exhibition. Mr.. Cow
art will be heard on this subject NJ
soon as both gentlemen are through at
shaking hands with their many
friends.

Fine Apples.

Captain Jefferson Peak bought 10
The HERALD office on yesterday som.
Of the finest apples that we have ever
seen, either in or out OF Texas. They
were Rhode Island GreeniDgs, and
were grown upon his place, just at The
edge OF the city. Many Of these apples
weighed over pound, and were more
Than twelve inches In circumference
Yet they had not attained their fui
growth, for Captain Peak Ind pluckec
them when the hordes Of grasshopper
filled the air, fearing lest the apple
would be destroyed by them. VIII
viii say now that Texas cannot grow
upples?

The necessity for better wagon yard
facilities IN Dallas was never more ap.
parent than. at this moment. During
many OF the cold, wet nights of our
late fall and early winter, our friends
from Clebnrne, Somerville and points
even farther west, come In with grain
cotton and other products. They ask
that flrewood, provender and other
necessarles be near at hand. They ARE
willing to pay for them, but, being
strangers, feel no disposition to hunt
The town after dark to find what II cit.
lien could almost lay his hands on.
Besides this, they require that protec-
ton shall be given to teams and iaml
lies left In the various wagon yards IT,
case OF stampede or fright on the part
of the animals. THE HERALD cali
attention to these matters, because Ger.
tain farmers were in our city yesterday
from the extreme west, who, being en-
tire strangers, found the greatest dill.
entity In procuring sufficient fuel las,
night to meet the exigencies OF the
sudden cold snap. Another gentleman
left his wagon In charge OF hs little
boy. The team started oil and the
owner seemed In the greatest distress
for the fate Of his son. The reporter
advised him to apply to Captain Nor
ton and the police force. He did 10,
and his little child, rs well as the
team, were found by the latter and re.
stored to him perfectly intact Had
the wagon yard been perfectly en-
closed this accident could not have oc.
cured. These tillers of the soil all
say they would prefer hauling few
miles further TO Dallas than to seek n
nearer market, because in Dallas they
can get better prices for their produce,
and cheaper rates for their supplies.
The HERALD can assure our western
friends that these Inconvenience will
heseafter DO 0bvlated.

OF many c8nEOus. l. shook the ground
so that men quarter OF mile distant
felt the shock distinctly. Imagine hun
dTeds Of pieces Of r-ck Ifom eight to ten
feet square falling forty feet, striking
solid ground and then being hurled down
a steep mountain side of fOriy-tive or
fifty degrees incline, among great forest
trees, over smaller rocks, among under
brush, etc, and you get some idea OF
what happened at Lookout yesterday.
The tTeetups were mSde, in many cases,
to snap like whips, and in some cases
large trees were bIOkeu entirely off. Tops
were Whirled together, and made the air
musical as they dissntangled them
selves Tbs sight was grand, and wag
rendered more than gCaad taken in con-
nectiOn With the shaking of the earth,
the loud IOaring as the rocks crashed
among the trees, and the great clouds of
dust caused thereby. Nothing short Of
some fierce cOmmOtiOn in nature, COM
bining all the grandeur Of the severest
thunderstorm with all the terror OF an
earthquake shock, could equal it. The
work Of forcing the mass down
was done under the supervision OF
Messrs. Hutson & Capehsrtr and was ae-
compIished principally by the use OF
isckscreWs.
