81, LOUIS March @li looN
A Sunday In st. Louis Is, rs u general
thing, rs quiet and orderly rs any eastern
city We have over seen, The larger .busGciI
houses, Of course, are all closed, and the pco'
pie In the main are church.golng people. ]
am led to this remark from the fact that 90
much Is saId in our own town about business
houses, saloons, etc, being opon on Sunday
Here stores, saloons, md theatres are open
during the day, but have rot observed u
drunken man on the street during tho day,
nor do SEQ or hear of any disturbances.
John Mccullough will play to-
night at the Olympic Theatre.
Although 1t is Sunday good crowd will
greet him, heard him lest night in liam
Leland am only sorry nm unable to hear
him to.night IN Richard Ill.
Some win go to hear Moody and SNnkey
and others Mccullough. II Is theatrical
performance in either case, TO my mind.
Much has been said Of Mcssrs. Moody and
Sankey and presume they have done great
GOOD, but they do not work wholly for TIE
cause of Christ. II is said Mr. Moody gets
$4,000 for three months work here, aud |
imagine that would go a long way toaards
engaging most any one in the noble work,
Now we do not wish to be considered Judge
upon such subject, We have respect for
the church, but We fear that tho Moody
and Sauky boom is more for the interest Of
Moody and Sankoy, than for the salvation
of souls. If AL we gather upon this matter
is true it is II pretty good speculation TO have
them hero.
Just nov everybody is on n strike except
newspaper mcr; they are always content
with what they are given, and that is usually
very small. Most Of the railroads are raising
the wages Of their men some, but not what
is demanded The Vandalia will not they
propose TO get Il new set Of men at the Old
figure There was 'juvenile strike" yes
terday at the glass works by about sixty boys.
They got out in the street and scampered
around like school boys. They were urged
to 60 TO work but refused to do so unless they
were given better pay. The works cannot
run until their place is supplied or they 90
10 work. There has been no harsh measures
used 10 stop any men from work who did not
Join the strike, and there will not be any.
They all counsel good behavior, and there is
no destruction of property.
The Globe Democrat says to-day that tive
hope Mr. Shields will withdraw his call for u
meeting of the Republican State Central
committee at Jefferson on the 23d." The
Globe Democrat sees that there will be n
split in the party now, but could not see il a
week ago when 1t was going for Henderson
and Shields. There can be no doubt that
Shields will have his convention and dele
cation anti Grant in its makeup, will go 10
Chicago.
Miss Nelson will he at the olympic thea
tire this week She is great favoric here.
Rev. DR.. Bush, of Austin has boen attend
ing the Moody meetings.
Fred Manget, formerly of Dallas, seems to
be doing well here. His wife is visiting her
fathers family in Dallas.
Mr. Gland Malone, formerly a clerk
in Sanger's, i: in dry goods house on Fourth
street and Harry Clark is with Dodd, Brown
& Co.
Mr.. and Mls George T Moore, Of
Dallas, ato visiting friends here.
Heretofore when visiting 81. Louis We have
generally stopped at the Lindcll, Planters or
Lacede hotels, as they were centrally To-
Gated and are supposed to set the best tables
This time we decided to try the old Barnum.
The rates here are very much lower, and the
table is equal, if not superior, to that OF any
hotel in the city. We mean what We say, for
we are not advertising Mr.. Pratt or his hotel
he is strictly opposed toadyertising and says
he does his advertising with MS table; We
grant it. But can assure our Texas readers II
they will only stop at the Barnum they Will
not be disappointed in good meal, The
cooking ia superior 10 that Of any hotel here
and the cook is supplied with sill tho luxuries
the market affords. The terms ara very rea'
