viii Gross This Morning.

An event which viii mark Il new epoch
in the history Of Waco will be the cross
ing of the Missouri Pacific train on their
magnificent new iron bridge, which
spans the Brazos. Although neither
form or ceremony will be observed in
making the crossing, it has been decided
that the engine, tender, etc, will pass
over to this side at 10 o'clock this morn
ing. This hour has been named
and is announced because it is known
that all our citizens desire to see the
first train come over, and without giving
any notice they would not know at
what hour to 90 down. 1t has been sug-
gested that the mayor and rs many of
the city officers as possible be present,
and no doubt nearly all of them will be
able to be there, and we are sure every
one of our citizens who can get away will
be sure to be there to see the engine
come over on this side and snort on the
ground where less than two generations
ago the buffalo snorted as he shifted the
scent of his Indian pursuer.

Ese Warned I'm Time.

Our special dispatch from Dallas this
morning announces state of things
there that may well strike alarm into
the hearts of the people of Waco. Small
pox is preva ling there to such extent
that one of the schools had to be closed
to prevent its >preading. Those who
are best acquainted with this much
dreaded disease know how difficult it is
when once it breaks out in COM
munity to KEEP it in check
and for months it may remain in Dallas,
and if of violent form who can tell
how many may be carried away by it.
We shudder to think that it spares
neither young or old, weak or strong.
Whether the disease was imported or
had its origin there does not fully APP
pear, but 1t has long been mystery why
Dallas, and many other places in their
filthy condition, have not bred number
OF diseases. While speaking of this we
might remark, though We know it will
be dIstasteful to some people, that there
are few if any cities at
the present time in more filthy con
dltion than Waco. All sorts OF debris,
animal and vegetable matter, stable and
cow-pen litter, and innumerable kinds
of nuisances can be seen laying around
alleys. lots, yards and even on some Of
the streets. Ponds and hghsmelling
cess-pools,neither ornamental or healthy,
are not scarce, and in every ward in the
city green slime and moss can be seen
on curb, yard, fence, beside and beneath
buildings. 1t is too well proven
to need any further argument
that filthy premises and uncleanly
habits induce many kinds of disease,
and instead of causing bad health 10y
neglect. We should be seeking constantly
good health by cleanliness and regular
habits. Waco has been So fortunate in
matters of health that we have become
Indifferent "An ounce Of prevention is
better than a pound Of cure and care
full watch should he kept that smallpox
or any other disease is not imported into
this community, and, at the same time,
We should take better precautions
against leaving cause for sickness Of a
or epidemic character to
arise ut home, Waco, with her justly
earned reputation for health, should al
WAYS be Watcbful of il.

Though the cases tried were not of the
gravest character they were sufficiently
so 20 absorb the full attention of the
court, county attorney, several members
of the bar and the jury during the en-
tire day. The first case was that of
Doc. Shinn, charged with burglary, which
charge could not be sustained and he
was acquitted, He WIS next tried on
charge of theft of a gelding and again
acquitted. Ben Smith, charged with
assault with intent to murder, was fined
$500. He was the party said to be impli-
Gated in the cutting of one Lynch at a
house of ill-repnte not long since. The
case of Fielding Austin charged with
rape, and Captain Harrison charged with
assault with intent to murder, are set
for hearing to-day.

THE MISSOURI PACIFIC.
Final Connection Made I'm East
Waco Yesterday Evening.

Crowds of people went over in East
Waco yesterday to the point where the
Missouri Pacific force was busy closing
up the gap between the steel laid from
this end and where they rested on the
other end Monday night. The late
rains made the yellow clay
which had been thrown up very slippery,
and it was with difficulty that the work
men handled the crOss-ties and heavy
steel rails. Notwithstanding, the fore
men of the different gangs were on the
ground pushing things along, some
gangs were working on the train drawn
by one of the ponderous engines of the
company, others were working on the
push cars bringing steel and spikes to
the front, still others laying steel and
spikinG, and farther up were
several gangs putting in sid
lngs and frogs. Everything was be
ing done with the greatest caution and
precision, and even those who pro
TESS to know nothing about railroad
work could not help seeing that every
thing was being done with a view to
strength, permanency and safety. Every
cross-tie was on "a solid foundation, in
its proper place, the spikes driven with
the same care a jeweler would handle
the most delicate machinery of watch,
all the joints, fish-plates, bolts,
and all else perfectly adj
justed. Practically speaking the,
road WAS finished to Waco last night
though trains viii not be run for sew
cral days yet-probably not before Jan
uary |. Sidetracks, switches, frogs,
etc, have to he put in between the river
and the depot-grounds before trains can
pass and repass and until depot build
lngs, freight houses, etc, are erected
the company cannot properly handle the
heavy business they viii have just as
soon as they announce. their time
card and put the road in full
operation to this point. We |
understood that work on the necessary |
will be commenced at once, !
and until finished the agent and his |
force will have their office in one of the |
cars, or in the new store |
house of kellum n Rotan. Waco has |
long looked to the advent. of this road,
hoping for large benefits from it in the |
travel and such dignitied, but persistent !
az will bring the cost of
of freight and rates of
fare down to the same cheap scale .as in
the states Of the north and east. The
beginning of 1892 will tell whether
these advantages are to accrue They
must, to some extent of course, for
where there are two or three roads, each
lsking for business, rates must be cheap
sr if combinations and pools do not pre-
rail. But whether we get the promised
benefits in full measure, is what all will
wait anxiouslv to see.
