little trouble that occurred yesterday after
noon between Capt. M, u. Lloyd and n gent
from tho rural districts has been n topic OF
general conversation among all classes Of our
citizens, from the high 10 the low, from thorich
TO the poor and each one seem 10 have
version of his own TO place upon
the affair. Even our morning city paper had
nm abortivo statement of facts In regard to
tho matter. AS We claim perfection in

fused TO grant Rush Lloyd change of venue,

get away from it," to which Captain Lloyd,
who was standing near, said in substance

old farmer said; "The precariousness of my

and thus the matter ended
We overheard conversation between several
of our prominent citizens yesterday, the i'm
port of which was that the HERALD gave
more of the important local news Of Fort
Worth than any other paper that is circu-
lated in the city. This being fact every
body will admit that it gives more general
news and hence it must be the best paper
we get,---By special invitation, we Witness

several important and interesting additions
to what has been heretofore present d in this
popular drama on the Fort Worth stage.

tend next Monday night. The most attractive
addition is that OF about fifteen ofthe sweetest,

them on the stage, even though they should
not move muscle or speak word. Every
