The HERALD calls the attention of
Its readers to the notice in another coll
umn, of the Dallas Compress Compa-
ny, announcing that at directors
meeting held yesterday, a dividend
OF eight per cent. on the capital stock
OF the company was declared, and
is payable on demand at their office.
This is indeed n gratifying condition
of affairs, not only to the stockholders,
but also to the people of Dallas, for it
is indicative of a successful manage
ment of the affairs of the company
through a very hard business season,
and Furthermore, the gentlemen who
have the affairs Of the company in
charge are deserving credit for their
ell ergy and push.

New York Clothing House,

This immense establishment is one
OF the largest clothing houses in the
city. Their stock is probably not
equaled by any other concern OF tie
kind. They occupy one OF the finest
and largest buildings in the city. The
proprietors pride themselves upon
keeping nothing but strictly flrst.class
goods. They have just received large
invoice of spring and summer goods
Of the latest styles that they will sell at
astonishingly low figures. They also
have an endless variety of all kinds of
underwear for gentlemen, very large
and fine assortment of linen shirts, a
great variety OF cravats, ties, handker.
chiefs, etc. They deserve great credit
and liberal patronage from'the citizens
OF Dallas for their energy and enter
prise in this line. We direct attention
to their advertisement that appears In
another column Of THE HERALD.

a AuipII NNaya

Last night several gentlemen were
seated round the cosy fire in the office
Of the LIE Grand, talking away, when
a loud report was heard, and some
thing struck the floor in front of them,
with one bound they all leaped to
their feet, and looked about for the
cause. A piece of plaster had fallen
from the cupola, down through the
rotunda and smashed to powder at
their feet. A window had probably
been left open and the rain beat
ing In, detached the mortar.

Jail Delivery,

Sheriff Moon received letter from
Sheriff Henderson, of Fort Worth, yes
terday, stating that four prisoners had
broken out and escaped, and asking
him to be on the lookout for them.
Their names are l.. G. Forman, the
man who was arrested here for horse
stealing, and taken there by Sheriff
Moon. The other three are j. G. or
Bill Chadwell, Il. G. Lesenby and j. r.
Thomas. The police have been noti-
fled and are prepared to take the boys
in out Of the damp. These jail-break-
ings should serve as warning to our
county commissioners, and teach them
that the county needs nothing so much
as a good Jail here. The present one
is disgrace.

Something worth Going to See.

A new Woods harvester, with
Locks celebrated self-binder attach
ment, can now be seen daily in oper.
alton at the great agricultural ware
house of II. V. Tompkins. This is,
indeed, one of the greatest labor-sav-
ing inventions of the nineteenth cen.
fury; it is simply constructed and
durable in all its parts. A sixteen
year old boy, with this wonderful ma.
chine, can now accomplish in single
day what has heretofore required a
dozen men. We would advise all of
our friends that may need first-class
and reliable harvesting machine, TO
call upon Mr.. Tompkins, before pur-
chasing elsewhere.

City Park.

The state OF the weather last night
was highly conducive, to set the average
citizen to thinking OF the inestimable
benefit the town would derive from "A
city park. To those who were so UNI
fortunate as to he obliged to be out OF
doors, and stumble about in the dark
ness, or cross streets at the imminent
danger of having their shoes pulled Off
by the mud, 1t was q consolation to
think that the city might have a park,
hlled with rustic benches, winding
walks, high fences, fountains, etc.
This was an ample compensation for
the condition of the streets. What IL
wagons stick fast on Main street and
pedestrians go over ankle deep in
sticky slush? What matter If ladies
are debarred from going out on wet
day for the lack OF crossings, 80 long
as the prospect of park is in exist
ence? 1t Is possible that there are
men in town who would be absurd
enough to prefer to have our cutters,
streets, and crossings inE good condi-
ton before park is thought of; but
such men have no true inwardness,
and perhaps don't own any property
near the proposed park. Persons liv-
ing in that portion Of the city north
of the Pacific track and east OF Syca-
more street, who are obliged to cross
Elm at its intersection with Sycamore,
would deem it great favor il the
council would order crossing, IL only
one board wide, as the moment it
rains the street is almost impossible
for pedestrians. If nothing better
can be afforded, few blocks set in
end'waYs. at the distance of two feet
apart, would enable them to cross the
street with something like comfort.

Crops, birds, etc.

Officer Hardin has just taken a trip
through the county. He says that the
crops are looking finely, wheat espe-
cially. This rain will be Of immense
benefit to our farmers. He reports the
country full ofsnipe, curlew and other
birds, and the farmers desire that hunt
ers let the birds alone; in fact, they
will not allow any hunting on their
lands. The birds are doing good SER
vice in destroying insects.

X Bro, Columbia, Penn. These firms
are numbered among the old and rei-
able firms engaged in their branch of
business, having been engaged in
manufacturing, and made tobac % and

years. The advantage Of long expert
ence and a direct connection with the
largest manufacturers OF the East, will
enable the Dallas house to offer in
ducements to the trade not surpassed
by any other firm in Texas, and we
propose to sell better cigars for less
money than can be sold by drummers
representing New York, st. Louis,
Galveston or any other place. Dealers
and consumers are especially invited
to call and examine our stock. We
