CITY DOTS.

We were in error in stating that the party
at Colonel w. j. Kellers was given by his
charming daughter, Miss Lucy. 1t was a
surprise party given by number of young
gentlemen to Miss Ssllie Griffs, one OF
Dallas loveliest daughters.
Arthur G. Hilton, patient at the city hos
pitsl, died yesterday from exposure and
typho.malarial fever. He came here some
two weeks ago from Longview and was taken
to the hospital Wednesday, but he was too
far gone to be resuscitsted.
A workman engaged in tearing down the
wall of the Wohl building, had his scatfold,
which was loaded with brick, to give awsy,
precipitating him to the ground with great
force, seriously injuring him, especially about
the head. He was removed TO his home, in
the northern part of the city.
Mr.. W. J. Walter was happy indeed yes
terday. His excellent wife presented him
with a son; weight, twelve pounds. The
whole HERALD office, from editor to devil"
wish he may increase and multiply until he
is the father of at least score of sons to do
battle for their country, (if need be) and as
many curly daughters to grace his household.
Hurrah for Walter
In another column of the HERALD will
be found the annual advertisement of the
State university, at Oxford, Mississippi. Our
young friends who intend attending this in
sttution should at once apply by letter to
the chancellor for rooms, and arrange to go
at the opening, September 30th. The insti.
tuition will likely be crowded full next ses-
sion, and those wishing frst.class rooms
should apply early. There were All stu.
dents there last year.

Faithful and jealous efforts have been made

Occasionally in our brief experience we
have met men who, while honest and fair
minded in many respects, had singular
ideas about receiving gifts. While much
might be written on this question we pro-
pose TO notice only one feature Of gift
seeking Some men trade year with a
merchant. They 'jew" him down TO the
lowest possible figure on every article they
buy so that his margin Of profit becomes
almost too small to "let him out safe" as
the saying is; Yet, at the end Of the year,
when the debtor settles his account, he
unhlushugly demands as a reward for his
patronage a present, that he must always
select for himself-a pair of boots, sad
die, suit Of clothes, a pair of shoes, in
deed almost anything. 1t would seem that
reasonable man wonld be satisfied with
low prices for his goods.
Verify, the merchant has trials as we'll as
other people.
