Many and ingenious are the devices
OF the wicked and INSCRIPTIONS to
draw into their nets the unwary vic.
tins on whom the human harpies
feed. In many cases the victims are
to be pitied, while In others they de-
serve all they get, as their own de.

day, and for depravity and wicked
ness exceeds anything yet brought to

ity that there are two white men, who
live in the eastern part Of town, that
are in the habit of attiring themselves
as women and walking the streets late
at night, enticing pedestrians to their
house, and there robhing them, or use
means to oxtort money from them,
This is n diabolical plot, and while
The HERALD could not sympathize
with the victims who lose their money

To u stranger IL must be n curious
sight to see in city u large and
popGlous as Dallas the main-thorough-

bog or aquicksand. Such sight was
presented yesterday. A gentleman on
horseback, while riding down Main
street, found himself landed into the
thick, sticky muck, by his horse
miring in the soft earth thrown into
the trench where the water-pipes had
been laid. His horse weat down to his
knees, pitching the rider over his head,
and receiving an injury in some way,
as the animal went lame afterwards,
"A wagon and horses also got stuck in
the same place shortly afterwards 1t
Is necessary to erect danger signals at
those bog-holes. TIE HERALD would
have liked the entire city council to
have stood on the corner OF Elm and

gAaed up the street towards the Pacific

before them. There are no passible
crossings. If the city cannot build
them, let the prisoners in the Gala.

would Willingly give five dollars a
