Merry-makers from abroad, in the city in
attendance on our Volks-fest, should bear in
mind that the month OF May Is the begin
ming of the warm weather, and that a persons
comfort for the next four months will de-
pend in no small measure upon the kind and
state of his underwear and linen. They are
reminded that, in deciding what they had
best buy in order to keep cool and comfort
able next to the skin, they can have while here
in Dallas the benefit of personal interview
with G. H. Clancy, celebrated throughout
Texas for the quality, fit durability and
price of his white and colored shirts, under
shirts and drawers, and they are cordially
invited to pay him visit at his establish
ment, COZ Main street, opposite Tiyoli hall.
They have only to inquire to lind out that
! the elite of Dallas wear Clancey's shirts;
that our substantial business men will have
no one else make their drawers, which are
''double.lned in the seat and warranted not
TO rip" by Clancy, and that finally, the
male population Of this city are Of the firm
opinion that . man breathes freer when at

fronts. Don't forget, in the course Of your
festivities, to take the time to call on

THE BRICKLAYING BUSINESS.
Meeting of JOurneymen Last Night
An Increase of Wages Demanded
Three Dollars and ~ Half
Day or No work.

A meeting of journeymen bricklayers was
held at the Market-house last night, the OBJ
iect being to consider the general interests
and promote the welfare of the craft in
Dallas. The bricklayers have been receiving
as the average wages three dollars per day,
which, they claim, is too little, con-
sidering the increased cost of every
thing in the living line, and the general de-
trimental influences they are compelled to
contend with Those who are fortunate
enough to have steady employment, it is al
LACED, can not average more than three or
four days work week, the principal reasons
being delays for brick, stone.work, unfavora-
BILE weather, etc, all of which retard the
brck.lsying business. This was the gist Of a
statement made by a leading brick-mason to
HERALD reporter before the meeting last
night.
The following are the results of the
deliberations at the Market house
last evening. j. w. Wallace was chosen

1t was unanimously resolved that com

layers Of Dallas demand $3.50 per day wages

than that figure. Also that they refuse tC
work on building with man or mel
who shall work for less than the established
wages A committee was appointed TO wal
on certain parties in regard to working il
harmony with the views Of the meeting. 4
motion was made, that in case any one goe
to work Monday morning, for less than $50
per day. a meeting OF bricklayers be callei
to consider what shall be done. 1t was move
and carried, that nine hours work on Satur
day be demanded MS u full days labor. Thin
