FORT WORTH.

Reported Dally.l
FORT WORTH, February "a. 1880.
1t may be truly said, that Fort Worth has
never been equaled by any town or city on
this or any other earth for its teedless, reck.
less and thoughtless journalistic adventures.
Soon after the advent of the Texas Il Pacific
railroad, daily papers, both large and small,
began to unfold their scanty sheets to the
zephyrs of morn and eve. AS is well-known
their careers were very short and somewhat
chequered. Since September, 1876, as many
us seven newspapers have started, have risen,
have flourished,( for awhile), and have fallen
When the Daily Democrat suspended on the
9Th of this month, it was verify believed by
great many to have been the end of Fort
Worth daily journalism, for it is generally
said that what Paddock can't do with news
paper, Horace Greedy would have failed to
consider. But it seems that there are few
in our midst who have had no experience in
the business" and have stepped to the front
only to struggle and fall as others have done.
Yesterday afternoon, at exactly fifteen min
utes past 6 o'clock, Mr.. @. w. Hoezle, gave
birth to four column paper known as the
"Fort Worth Daily Evening News" There
NAV be some demand for such an institution,
and under the able regime of Mr.. H., it may
succeed for awhile, as the current expenses
are very small. 1t will be devoted
exclusively TO the local interest of the city.
Encouraged by the boldness of the 9th
ers. the Rev. w. p. Wilson, of the Weekly
Advance. threw to the breezes this morning,
his ripping sheet, which will sail under the
bantling name of the Fort Worth Daily
Adyan g." This paper will move upon its
broad and expensive basis common to daily
Journals. The people of Fort Worth can
now stand and view with mingled surprise
and admiration, this journalistic enterprises
from the following standpoints There is
the Little Churchman," devoted to the
preachings Of the doctrines OF the Episcopal
church. There ia the "Christisn Advocate"
given to the interest Of the North Methodist
Church. Then we have the DAILY
Advance" which is wholesale
dealer in religion. Then the
"Greenbsck Guard" which sings tho lullaby
to the ''rag baby" Then the Evening News
devoted to the local interest of Fort Worth
| Then the Evening Journal devoted to-
=; and ast, though not least, comes three
hundred and fifteen copies of the "Dallss
Daily HERALD which are circulated here
each morning of publication, bringing the
full Associated Press dispatches, foreign and
domestic, full market report, special
DISPATCHES from all parts of the State, the
general news of the day, and a complete
supply Of the local news Of Fort Worth, al
of which YOU can have delivered at YOU
door each morning before breakfast for thu

BRYAN, February p, 1880.
The ladies of the Methodist church give a
sumptuous supper tonight, Mt the Academy
of Music, for the purpose of raising funds to
have the.church reprinted. Admission so
cents eat as you please,-Quite an excite
ment was produced on Main street this morn
ing by the firing of two pistol shots, at short
intervals. Delegates from every precinct ar
rived on the spot at short notice, in order to
upon. The conclusion was produced by n
white dog with yellow trimmings advancing
toward policeman Dickerson, with
month wide open, indicating that he
preferred to breakfast upon city
official. Two gentle remonstrances
from officer Dickersons pocket-hssk, de-
cided the question adversely to the dog, indi-
eating that the former was a 'star" in
tragedies. The dog had been poisoned. -
Mr.. 9. L. Caufer, Chief Of the fire depart
ment, has been actively engaged for a few
days past raising subscriptions from our
citizens for the purpose Of erecting large
cistern on Main street, in the vicinity of the
Cheap store, and have the same connected
with pipes, laid along Main street, with fire
plugs at convenient intervals, easily accessible
to the fire department. Mr. Caufer proposes
to have the large cistern connected with q
pipe to cistern at his furniture factory and
to pump waller into the same by means of n
steam pump connected with well on the
premises. The necessary amount has been
subscribed to commence the work at once
The |. ID. KS an amateur minstrel troupe
of Bryan, give their second performance fer
the benefit of the Bryan Fire Department
early in Marrh.--The Odd Fellows of this
city have inaugurated a Uniform Encamp-
ment in connection with the Patriarchal
branch of the Order. The officers were elect
ed and installed on Thursday night last, and
are as follows II. A. Moore, G. p; I. s.
Snow, H. p; G. f. Moore, s. w.; H. IL.
Jones, j. W.; A, j. Platner, Scribe; 5. Hoti-
man, Treasurer. They meet ths second
Thursday in each month. This Encsmpment
has adopted the endowment insurance plan
determined on by the Grand Lodge of the
State at its recent session in Dallas, by which
plan each member of the organization con-
nected with this fund, has paid TO his
wife or others at his death, the sum
of $1,000. The same scheme will prevail in
the subordinate lodge, thus giving members
OF Dotn organizations inc penens Vi ihsui
ance to double mount-I must not fail
to congratulate Dallas upon the accession she
has made to both her commercial and social
circles in the person of w. Il. Flippen, of
the trim of Flippen, Adoue & Lobit, late of
this city. Mr.. f. is a thorough-going bust
ness man, full of enterprise, and thoroughly
alive in every respect. His loss to our city is
deeply felt, commercially, financially and
socially. His family will remain at Bryan
for short time.
