HuiId Plank walks.

A citizen has requested THE HERALD
to say that If every owner of dwell
ling would build plank walk in front
of his place, 1t would be u great con-
venience to themselves and family,
and an accommodation all round, be.
sides giving continuous walk. The
cost would be but little, not over five
or six dollars for walk three foot
wide, and the benefit arising there.
from In Indictment weather Ia
great. Build the walks by all
means, and then person re-
siding several blocks from the
main thoroughfares, and of the street
railroad line, can go home without
having to wade foot deep in mud
during the rainy season.

Sunday night the streets leading to
the parks and neiGhbOrhood thereof,
were made hideous by the songs and
boisterous oaths Of party of young
men-mere youths In their teens-who
fired of pistols, and created n general
disturbance. Attention ofparents and
guardians is called to the fact, and
also that of saloon keepers, who are
liable to a penalty for selling liquors
or beer to minors.

Sunday afternoon while freight

miles east of the city, one of the cars
jumped the track, dragging others
otter it until eight cara, loaded with
lumber, were thrown from tho rails

was injured and that slightly. The
accident delayed the mail and passen-
ger trains both ways. The train from
Fort Worth Sunday night, passing
here at nine O'clock, and the ACC M
